NEAR DEATH ON THE DESERT

GLOBE, Sept 14-After experienc-
ing the grim horror of spending forty
eight hours on the great Arizona des-
ert, many miles from the nearest vii
lage, without water, Joe Young, ac-
companied by Mr.. and Mrs. Tiffany
Dean of this city, safely arrived in
Globe.
When the party, returning from
Long Beach in Mr. Young's machine,
were near Bouse, they took an aban-
doned road by mistake. After driving
many miles, they stopped for water,
only to find that the canteen, which
had been ranging on the side of the
car, was lost. When they stopped
they discovered that there was no
water in the radiator.
This was the party's pitiable plight
for forty-eight hours, during which
time Mr. Young became unconscious
from the intense heat and lack of
water. Mr. and Mrs Dean were also
severely affected. But on the second
day a man, carrying a huge canteen
filled with water, came upon the party
and relieved their suffering.

MEXICAN DOLLARS ARE
MELTED FOR BULLION

NEW YORK, Sept. 14.-Fifty thou
sand Mexican dollars, lying in sacks
on the floor of a dealer here in silver
bullion, were one of the evidences this
week of the rapidly mounting price
of bar silver, which has now reached
the record-breaking figure of $1.00
an ounce. A year ago it was selling
at 68 cents an ounce.
The Mexican money was to be con
verted into bullion and represented,
it was said, but small fraction of sill
yer currency being brought out of
Mexico, despite measures by the Mex
lean government to prevent its money
from being drained off by the atrial
ton of high bullion prices in this
country
The Mexican silver dollar, for years
valued at about so cents, is now with
in the neighborhood of rs cents at
prevailing bar silver prices. The rise
in value of the metal has raised the
question as to whether a similar at
traction will come to bear on Ameri-
can silver dollars tempting owners to
melt and sell them as bullion. There
will be no danger of this, it was said,
by silver authorities, until bar silver
climbs to $1.29 an ounce.
The high price of silver is attributed
here to both an increased demand and
decreased prediction.

COMBINATION WILL
RESUME AT OATMAN
SAYS SEN. MAHONEY

PHOENIX, Ariz., Sept. 14.-Work
will begin soon to extend the develop
ment work on the Oatman Combina-
tion mine, according to Senator w. P.
Mahoney of Mohave county, who is in
Phoenix this week The Combination
has been shut down for the past two
years, the cause being lack of funds.
The owners having secured additional
funds, will push the work. They state
that the showing made in previous
operations were so encouraging that
they have not the least doubt but
what the Combination will develop in
to a real paying proposition. A shaft
about 285 feet has been SUNK and
the ore body has been exposed by
drift on the 200-foot level.
Senator Mahoney is superintendent
of the Oatman Combination mine, and
at the time of suspension of opera
tions had already uncovered a most
favorable showing at that property.

VERDE COMB, To
START DRIFTING
FROM 600 LEVEL

JEROME, Sept. 14.-That drifting
will be started two ways from the
600-foot level of the Verde Combina-
tion shaft, was announced this week
by Manager Dave Morgan
One of these drifts will be north
east, toward the schist-porphyry con-
tact, some 200 feet from the shaft
This is in accordance with the COM
pany's previously announced plan of
development.
The other drift will be southwest
to intersect the quartz ledge which
cuts across the Connors group. 1t is
estimated that about 500 feet of drift
ing will be necessary to reach the
quartz.
This quartz ledge is the same one
that passes through the Ballard
group and the Jerome Copper COM
pany's ground, which the Lewissohn
interests are now developing 1t is
understood that the quartz was an
luIpOIIdut ldCJOI Ill uOClulIS CH0 Lew
issohns to become interested in the
Jerome Copper.
The ore bodies of both the United
Verde and United Verde Extension
are capped with quartz. The fact that
the Verde Combination also has
quartz Gaping is one thing that
makes Manager Morgan so sanguine
of opening a big mine there.
The 60O-foot station of the Combina-
tion shaft is practically completed.
When that level was reached the shaft
was widened out to the size of the
contemplated station. Then it was
narrowed down again to regular shaft
size for the sump. A twenty-foot
sump will be finished in two or three
days and drifting will be started as
soon as station pump can be in
stalled.

sIDELIGHTs ON THE WAR

The following from a letter written
English scholar, to a friend in Phoe
nix, gives some interesting sidelights
on the war:
Events have moved nightly since
1 last heard from you. The crisis in
the history of the world becomes only
more and more intense. 1t is appar-
emily in the question as to whether the
people as whole are to determine
what life they shall live, or shall this
be determined for them by a small
hereditary highly trained caste.
81 fancy the war may affect college
and general life in the United States
to a considerable extent, though moth
ing like so deeply as it touches Euro
pean countries In one of the colleges
of the group which goes to make up
Oxford university there is one whose
normal entry in October is between
for next October, three of these being
colored men from India, and the other
man unfit for military duty. Uni
versity life has almost ceased except
for women students and a few who
are physically incapable of military
service in this country.
.The facts in Russia at the present
time are a grave example of the weak
ness of an uneducated democracy.
The German government-that is, the
Prussian governme ent-is extremely
skillful in playing upon the weakness
and taking advantage of the vices and
follies of the people. The stress which
all German military writer's lay on
terrorism and the facts of German
military operations, show how thor
oughly the principle is carried out in
practice as based on the actual facts
of Prussian history and experience.
Every Prussian in the ruling caste is
brought up from infancy to learn the
! lesson that every nation can be ter

WORLDS LARGEST MONUMENT

ATLANTA, Ca, Sept. 14.-The larg-
est monument in the world will soon
be taking shape under the sculptor's
chisel on the broad face of Stone
mountain, near here. This rock face
is 500 feet high and 1900 feet long.
On this vast tablet it is planned to
carve memorial to the confederacy.
This monument will surpass all the
gigantic monuments of ancient times,
both in size and in methods. The
carving will be done with automatic
The workers themselves will get
down the face of the cliff to their
work by 500 feet of plank steps.
There they will get into cars carried
back and forth before the design on
trucks that run on horizontal track
Electrically worked hoists will lower
these cars of workmen down 400 feet
over the work
The carving, when completed, will

moving over the side of the noun
tain. Every horse and rider will have
to be fifty feet high in order to give
the desired effect. Many of the in
dividual figures will represent import
ant men of the confederacy
Provision is being made for the
preservation of the work from erosion
by top drainage that will prevent wa
ter dripping down over the carved
figures. AS there are no severe frosts
in that section of the country, there
is no danger from that source. The
lighting on the carved figures is said
to be particularly good. The face of
the cliff is half north and receives
continuous top light because it is on
the crest of the mountain.
1t is tremendously interesting un-
dertaking. The sculptor in charge is
Mr.. Gutzon Borglum. Under him will
be groups of young artists every one
of whom will be in charge of three or
four automatic carvers.
While this huge memorial will be
source of joy and pride to Georgia
and the south particularly, the whole
country will rejoice in it's possession
1t will be a wonderful and beautiful
thing, in which man and nature have
worked together.

CAUSE UNKNOWN


The miner, as he left his job,
Cleaned out his soothing brier;
The ashes fell among the COB
And set the stuff afire.
The owners wagged their heads-and
jaws;
They spouted threat and fustian;
And then announced that ancient
cause,
Spontaneous combustion
He left some carbide when he quit,
The rules of safety spurning;
The moisture soon got into it
And started things to burning.
They sought the cause with might
and main,
= By quizzing and inspection,
But all their striving was in vain;
1t still escaped detection.
A timber for his mine lamp made
A rather handy holder,
Until the flame, by currents SWayed,
Had set the wood a-smoulder;
And tho the inquiry brought out
A world of elocution,
The problem still was left in doubt;
It quite defied solution.
He threw a worn-out wick aside,
All thought of risk disclaiming;
1t fell on timber old and dried,
And later set it flaming.
From lip to ear wild guesses sped,
And theories flew faster,
But this is what the verdict read:
mysterious mine disaster"

LORDSBURG TO
HAVE TWO NEW
FLOTAT|ON MILLS

LORDSBURG, N. NJ, Sept. 1.-THE
erection of oil flotation-concentrati
plants by the 85 Mine and the Bonney
mine, the two biggest producing prop
critics in the Lordsburg district, is the
best piece of news that has come to
local men for long time Both mills
will be equipped for handling custom
ores, thus making possible the work
ing of many small properties in the
district which could not otherwise
operate.
Plans for the IS Mine mill have
been drawn by ]. w. Crowdus, 'engi-
neer for the mine, of El Paso. 1t will
have daily capacity of 800 tons with
provision for an increase to 500 tons.
1t will be electric drive throughout
and of 500 horsepower. The mill will
employ about 20 men, but it will cause
the employment of about 200 more
men in the mine. The construction
will be all steel and concrete The
grading for the railroad spur, and the
mill proper is already half done. The
steel and part of the machinery is al.
ready on the ground. The new mill
will be located about 600 feet from
the present ore bins.
The capacity of the proposed mill
at the Bonney has not been decided
upon definitely, but it is expected that
it will be at least 300 tons daily or
better. The decision to erect the mill
came as the result of a visit to the
mine by Secretary Hopes and Engi-
neer Donald Giles of El Paso. Tests
on the ore not yet completed will de-
termine the capacity. 1t is estimated
that better than 95 per cent of the ore
values will be saved by the process.

road building enterprises; to the Verde
Extension smelter construction, and to
important betterments in the Clifton
: Morenci district, are notable. They
alone represent planned expenditures,
beginning with which has been made,
of $14,000,000 The remaining SILL
100000 of the estimate is scattered
among all of the other important pro-
ducing camps. Humboldt, with $2,-
100000 under way of expenditure;
Ray, with $2,000,000 in course of ex-
penditure, lead the list. Globe Miami
had upwards of $1,000,000 going into
betterments when closed down.
Aside from this there are to be
considered some millions which had
been engaged for additional equip
ment and development of new prop
critics in the strike zones. Much of
this money has since been indefinitely
held up. Investors are occupying a
waiting attitude toward Arizona min
ing affairs; one that is working a
hardship upon some properties of er-
cellent promise in both old and new
districts, the increased output from
which of copper, lead, silver and zinc
would be of much Importance to the
government, not only in point of in
crease of needed metals, but also be-
cause of additional revenues for the
war treasury.
