with a noble desire to stimulate en- uhusiasm for the clean and eininently useful sport, offered a fine cup to be shot for on Admission day each year The first winner was Captain !. E. Noble or Mesa, then by Captain j. \. Mullen of Tempe, and lastly by Major II. C. Coykendall, who now holds it and is at present with the First Arizona infantry on the border.
 Last year, Dr. Broido the first presi dent of the club, put up magnificent cup as perpetual trophy to be shot for by club members. It has been shot for six times and won five times by C. Y. Gulley and once by II. C. Griswold, the present holder.
 A good will shoot among the ten or twelve thousand troops on the border in 1915 engaged in by teams made up of the best shots in the different regi- ments, netted the Phoenix men the chief trophy.
 The severest test of craftsmanship is of course the national matches par ticipated in by the finest sharpshoot- CTS the country over. Arizona sent ! out team of twelve men in 1914 to compete at Lawrence, Kansas. Six of these were from the Phoenix Rifle club. ! The Arizona team obtained one first
 
 teams. The next year the meet of the i National Rifle association was held at Jacksonville, Florida. The Phoenix club sent five of the twelve Arizona men. Arizona dropped to the class this year. They ascribed this retrogra- tion to the rain which fell steadily at Jacksonville. They are not used to rain and can't shoot well in the rain. They can dispense with humidity just as well as horned toads can
 There was national civilians match about this time, when it did not ram. It was telegraphic match. so that everyone enjoyed the climate he was used to. The performance at this match of the Phoenix Rifle club was notable in that they won second place. and were pitted against professionals of high rank throughout the country. 1 In a second match of the same char acter a year later, the club won first place, but was debarred on a tecncal- ity.
 The success of the club has been phenomenal If the sharpshooters of the club were all the medals they have won they would stagser under them and FGalstaff, himself in a weeK s

time could hardly drain the many epps won by lae club, whether filled with musty ale or with the prevailing bev- 2ge of the state.
 Much of the success of the club is due to the kindly interest a,4d etrlo.ent Co-operatioa ot the retary of the sta e association Uncle George Rosk- ruee, of Tucson. This remarkable man now in his eighties has qualified as an expert marlsman every year since h. entered the British army in 1S41. Otaers who have contributed by intelligent ef- fort to the virilty of the local club are C. T. Hirst, fine marksnan and equal ly efficient organizer: Colonel James II. McCiintoclz, the present president, who is en report with all things mili tary, Tom Edens, Dr. Bodo. Secretary L. L. Chapman. George Kirkland, vice president, c. E. Heath, treasurer, and Lyman LaTourette. executive officer.
 IL should be stated for those who contemplate membership in the Phoe- nix Rifle club, that the new member will not be called upon to shoot against the veterans of the club. The roll is divided into A, B, and C classes. i consisting of sharpshooters, E of fai. marksmen, while C embraces all oth- eIs. A member of class may com pete against those of A or B, or E against A. The reverse does not hold.
 Shoots are held monthly, but with increased membership they will occur more often. The range is five miles east of Phoenix on the Mcdowell road, directly at the base of Red Buttes. There are five fully equipped targets with an available range of POO yards. Springfields and raS-Jorgensons are i used, the former being the rifles used in service. Transportation to the range is supplied and rifles are always avail able for those who do not own one. For membership, arms or ammunition, apply to Secretary Chapman, with the Vic Hanny company

The Copper Market of 1916

Nineen hundred and sixteen saw the greatest production of copper in United States history and the highest prices since 1872. Beyond that, the copper story of the year may best be told with the aid of comparative figures.
 Two billion pounds of refined cop per with a valuation of half a billion dollars were produced and marketed by the copper industry of this coun- try. This was a million tons, at a high market price of 8 cents per pound. as against some twenty five thousand tons in 1872, when the price went to A cents per pound.
 Of this huge copper production the baby state of Arizona, that has a male population of 75,000 including it's Indians, mined almost two hundred million dollars worth. or more than the entire United States production prior to 1902
 Copper is regarded as an indestructi- ble metal, therefore this huge quan- tity should have been added perman- ently to the wealth of the world As a contrary matter of fact it is rough ly estimated that twenty times that amount of copper was irrecoverably lost to the world during the year shot away in minute particles by the

Rays profits for the first quarter of 1917 should be sS,300,000, equivalent to substantially better than $2 per share on it's outstanding capitalization, or more than double its current divi- dend requirements. Ray profits, how ever, are understood to be substantial ly larger, and the next dividend period may see an increase in the dividend rate, which anticipation seems to be tGrne cut by the steadily strengthen

warning nations of Europe The loss is indisputable, as is, also, the logical concusion that the return Of peace, coming soon or late, while curtailing wars demands will also usher in an electrical and other industrial de- velopment demand for the metal much larger and no less insistent.
 Add to these known facts the further items of knowledge that a securing of the North American continent for new copper deposits brought meager re- suits in 1916 and that the apex of pro- duction is practically reached, and we have the logical foundation for the widespread belief that high metal prices and unprecedented prosperity are billed for an indefinite continu- ance in the copper industry.
 Copper deposits are of rare occur rence at least, those that are com mercially and financially practicable. The two most notable new coppers of the past year belong to that rare group known as the 'porphyres es'-six mines with an aggreate life since develop ment of only nine years-whose pro- ductive and mining record is un- equalled in mining and market history.
 
 per cent of the 1916 copper. paid fifty million dollars in dividends to their fortunate shareholders in the year, and a combined single share of the group which might have been bought at forty nine dollars at original prices would cost $332 at present market prices. One alone, the famous Utah 'porphyry'' copper, whose stock con- trol passed for S2 per share in 1902, has since paid fiftytwo million dol lars in dividends on an issued capital ization of seventeen millions, and paid twenty millions in dividends in 1916.
 Both the new porphyries are in Pima county, Arizona One, the New Cornelia at Ajo, entered it's commer- cial development stage in June, 1916. It is reported that by July of this year it's newly completed s5,000.000 plant will be producing at the rate of 36,000,- 0e0 pounds of copper annually at an estimated cost of seven to eight cents per pound, for a thirty cent market.
 The other porphyry is the Magnate mine in the Twin Buttes section of Pima county. a mine more favored ma = turally than any other of the porphyry group. Its surface indications are as promising as were those of lnspira ton, Ray and Miami; it's contour and area and availability for steam shovel mining of the most economical type rank it with Utah, and the present ascertained values of it's porphyritic mass run about 1.75 per cent copper. While New Cornelia's development re- uuired the guiding of forty-four miles of railroad and the sinking of deep wells for it's water supply, Magnate has a natural water supply ample for all purposes and is distant only five miles from standard guage railroad about thirty-one miles southwest of Tucson.
 Magnate's commercial development is proceeding under the personal direc- tion of Walter Harvey Weed, the noted geologist and author of the classic Copper Mining Hand book"

Green Monster


 Considerable strength has attended this past weeks dealings in the stock of the Green Monster Mining com pany, due to the recently reported strike on the Jerome Verde, which has demonstrated that the United Verde and United Verde Extension are only forerunners of series of rich pro- ducing mines, which will eventually be opened up in that district as a result of the intelligent prosecution of de- velopment work. The strike on the Jerome Verde proved that the geologi- cal information available is sufficient to enable a competent geologist to pre- dict very closely where the producing areas will lie at depth. Realization of the great potentialities at depth in this district, and the knowledge that the goal will soon be reached now that active development work has al ready been begun on the Green Mons ter. has induced certain interests that sold big blocks of that stock when 1t was quoted considerably above pres ent figures. to give orders to buy back these shares at prevailing quotations.

Miami

It would not be surprising if Miami Copper company directors declared an extra disbursement of $1 share, in addition to the quarterly dividend of S150 a share, at the coming meeting, This would mean an increase to soc share in the extra disbursement or - dered last January. Miami would then be paying dividends at the rate of S10 a share annually Interests in the company fully alive to Miamis good financial position strongly advocate increasing the extra disbursement. Miami earned around SIP a share last year, but earnings of more than SIT share are expected in 1917. The com pany plans to bring the production up to between 60,000,000 and 70,000,000 pounds this year. The surplus on March l totaled about S6,700,000, of which S1,700000 was cash With maintenance of high copper prices over the rest of the year, and an output of 66nG0G G00 pounds, returning an esti- mated profit of say 20c a pound, Miami stands an excellent chance of showing a net of something like s11,000,0 900 for the remaining eleven months. Should the directors see fit to increase the eX- tra disbursement to S1 a share three quarterly dividends of S2.50 each would call for the payment of about So.
 600,000. Miami would then have a treasury surplus of about s12,0000 000 The company has been very fortunate in disposing of it's 1917 copper and production is sold ahead into the last quarter of this year at high prices.

Eastern factories were invaded and machinery and materials urged forward on the order books.

 The e-Soct uDon this and surrounding mining districts of the starting up and the successful operation of the New Cornelia 9S producer of copper is certain of being very great. Produc- tion will immediately attract a wider and more important manner of inter- est tO tfh district and it's adjacent country than it would be possible to gain in any other way That there are other big mines to be made in the large mineralized areas extending to each point of the compass from Cor nelia as a center there is small ques- tion. The interest created in Cornelia and the district as a producer will serve as an all sufficient stimulus to speedily bring about the thorough ex- plOitation of much of this present out side area A good deal of development has been started and is going along nicely. In little while the increased outside interest will bring to these properties abundant funds with which to conduct the thorough and exten- sive exploration work which they will require. before they can enter the class Of made mines. Others will follow in their train all the way down to the Mexican border
 The vastness of the opportunity eX- tant in the district and it's adjacent ter ritcry is for the most part little real iTed But it will come into public knoWledge very rapidly from now on. The lack of railroad transportation facilities until last year, the lack of roads. the lack of certainty of the ad- visibility of any sufficient water SUD- ply for large operations, until Cor nelia proved it, and the many hard ships of the isolated desert country until Cornelia removed the bigger part of this handicap by bringing rail into Aje-ali of these things stood in the way and presented through many years an insurmountable stumbling block. The latter has not been re- moved and with the beginning of pro- duction by Cornelia the last gate will be down and the country open to the new activities which are certainly ahead among the abundant promis- ing prospects. The importance of it all to Pima county and Arizona cannot be measured at this time

Jerome Verde

Reports to the effect that an import ant strike had recently been made in one of the properties of the Jerome Verde were followed by sharp ad- vance in the stock, it going to S3 share. Considerable profit-taking in- dulged in by those who bought their shares some below S1, caused quite recession in the price of the stock, despite the fact that there were no lack of purchasers who readily took all of the stock offered. During last week there was shown a distinct tendency to a resumption of the upward trend. More recent reports from the Jerome Verde mines. besides including favor able, details in connection with the strike, which caused the excitement in the past two weeks trading in this is sue, refer to further important de- velopments of which authentic adyices are expected to create new demand for this stock.

Maoma Copper

The rise in Magma Copper which was the feature of last weeks trading was based on official reports from the property that important disclosures had been made between the 1700 and 1S00-foot levels. It is stated that the drills put down from the 1900 level penetrated an ore body at slightly be- low HOO feet, the ore averaging from per cent to 10 per cent copper. The core of the drill below the f100-foot level shows considerable chalcOpyrite and bornite This sludge CT drillings assayed 15 per cent copper for 50 feet and 10 per cent copper in one 10-foot section. Makine allowance for the angle at which the drill hole cut the vein. the true width of the vein is esti- mated to be about 35 feet. It will be recalled by the readers of this letter that the ore body opened on the l500- foot level last year was approximately 40 feet in width and carried about s per cent copper, with good gold and silver values, and it is believed that the ore cut by the drills is the con tinuation of this deposit at the lower levels. If such proves to be the case Magma Copper will have opened more han 20h feet of additional blocks on this ore body which is the richest yet opened in the property.
 The opening of the ore on the 1900 level is responsible for the advance in the stock from around S20 to above $50 a share, and in view of the importance of the disclosure of the ore body at greater depth the present advance in the stock is readily explained. At the close of the market tonight reports were heard of substantially higher prices for the issue.
