HILLTOP EXTENSION IS NEAR POINT OF
 MAKING SHIPMENTS
p ROP ERTY IN CHIRIcAHUAs NEAR FAMOUS HILLTOP SOON WILL ENTER LIST OF SHIPPERS SAYS JOHN BLUMBERe WHILE IN DOUGLAS

DOUGLAS, Nov. 2.-John Blum burg, who for the past year has been developing the Hilltop Extention lead and silver mining property in the Chiricahua mountains, being and ad joining property to the original Hill top mine. was in the city today.
 All arrangements have now been completed for the starting of ship ments of ore from the Extension prop erty, which carries high values in lead and silver A road has been completed to the mine, leading from the Rodeo-Hilltop road and several cars of ore is now in the loading bins. Hauling of ore to Rodeo would now be in progress except for the reason that the Rodeo loading platform is blocked by some heavy machinery which is under attachment and cannot be moved This difficulty will be corrected in a short time and then shipments are expected to go for ward from the Hilltop Extention at the rate of two cars per month and these shipments will be continued in definitely as ore bodies now avail able for extraction are of important size.
 The Hilldop Extention Mining com pany was promoted by John Gaugh- ran and John Blumburg about two years ago, since which development work has been going steadily on with excellent results. The building of road was a matter of considerable expense and has delayed the begin ming of production. The owners of The property now feel that they have a property which will enter the ranks of the producing mines of the state and remain in this class for many years.

QUICKSILVER FOUND IN DEPOSITS NEAR
 PHOENIX, IS REPORT
MERCURY PLAYS IMPORTANT IN OUTPUT OF WAR MUNITIONS AND DISCOVERY IN THIS STATE MAY ASSUME IMPORTANCE FOR THAT REASON

One of the meta:s that enters into the production Of munitions more than is appreciated by many is mer- cury or quicksilver. The present ex- ceptional demand for quicksilver in the manufacture of illumination gives special interest to the deposits of this metal in Arizona, Since the outbreak of the great war deposits of quick silver have been discovered in the southern part of the Phoenix noun tains, ten miles northwest of Phoenix. The United States Geological survey announces that a paper published as Bulletin 690-r, under the title Quick silver Deposits of the Phoenix Noun lains," by F. C. Schrader. may be ob5 tained by applying to the director of the United State Geological survey, Washington, D. c.
 F. L. Ransome, also of the United States Geological survey, reported on the quicksilver deposits of Mazatal range, Arizona, in 1914.

Men who have not taken the course or who have only taken it in part may take the exami- nation and be rated.
 All men satisfactorily completing the course will be given a certificate or diploma signed by the examining board, which certificate would un- doubtedly be of value in securing a position in any part of the country, as the high standards of the Copper Queen branch are well known.
 All lectures are to be printed and distributed to each one taking the course, and there will be no charge made for any part of the work. The lectures will be chosen as far as pos sible from the regular organization, and all will be specialists in their in dividual subjects. While the course will specialize in Copper Queen methods, 1t is in every sense of the word a practical mining course. semi-technical in nature and within the grasp of any man working in the mines who has a common school education. Your desire to have a better educa. ticn. to command a better salary, to better your opportunities and those of your family, can be fulfilled by taking this Practical Mining course.

MINING COURSE ANNOUNCED FOR
 p. ). ENPLOYES
Practical Lessons in Various Branches of Mining Science Will Make for Rapid Ad- Vancement

An opportunity for more rapid ad- yancsment than ever before has been opened to all employees of the Cop per Queen branch of the Phelps Dodge corporation. Announcement has been made by S. C. Dickinson, room g, Sparks-Klein building, who is in charge of it, of a general course in mining open to all company em- ployes. MT. Dickinson, whose an- nouncement is self-explanatory says: To All Employees of the Copper Queen
 Branch, Phelps Dodge Corporation:
 You have often wondered how you could put yourself in line for promo tion, how you could fit yourself for the job ahead, how you could place yourself on the salary list instead of the day wage list. how you could gain the necessary knowledge to improve your opportunities. The chance has now come. The Copper Queen branch of the Phelps Dodge corporation has authorized and endorsed a prescribed Practical Mining course, designed solely to give men the opportunity of bettering themselves. Men who have successfully completed the course will be examined and rated by an examining board, and those pass ing will be given preference in future appointments.
 Merely passing the course, how ever, does not signify that a man has all of the necessary qualifications to be the broad and sympathetic type of boss that the company desires; the ability to handle men figures largely in the preferred list. Completing the course successfully does not neces- sarily mean immediate promotion, but rather promotion as vacancies occur.
 The course as outlined is a compre- hensive and practical course given for practical men, and consists of:
 l. Mining methods, including lec- lures on tools, mucking. breaking ground, drifting, shaft sinking, raises, stopes, etc.
 2. Miscellaneous subjects such as sampling, explosives, ventilation, fire prevention, safety, etc.
 3. Mechanical Mathematics, me- chanics, machinery, hoisting, haulage, air compression, air transmission, pipes, pipe fittings. hose. etc.
 4. GeolOgy-General geology, geol- ogy of the Warren district, elementary chemistry as applied to ores. ores of copper, map making, map reading and interpretations.
 3. Economies-A brief survey of the
