THE M|DDLENARCH MINE IS ONE OF
 OLDEST IN STATE
Operated Since 1898; Is Big Asset in Cochise County
 Copper Mining
By B. Nj. SNYDER,

(Mining Engineer, Los Angeles)
 The Middlemarch copper mine is one of the old discoveries of Cochise county, Arizona It was located some years prior to it's operation in 189S-99 by the Girds and OGorman. They erected a small water jacket furnace and smelted several thousand tons of the rich oxidized ores, but at shallow depth encountered primary sulphides, which were below smelting grade. A small concentrating mill was erected later, but the high specific gravity of the gangue minerals make gravity concentration out of the question, and this mill was a failure. Until flota- tion of copper ores became a success, the treatment of the ore remained a problem, as it was too low-grade to stand shipment to smelters.
 The property is located in the Ora goon mountains, nine miles west of Pearce, Arizona, the railroad point, with which place it is connected by a good auto road There are altogether S60 acres in the property, covering the best showings of the Middlemarch district.
 Geology
 From geologic standpoint the prop erty is interesting. A series of meta morphosed sedimentaries have been intruded by stocks of granite and by strong dykes of rhyolite porphyry Cor qua1tz porphyry), with the develop ment of contact metamorphic veins and irregular replacements.in the sed- imentaries. ~
 The sedimentaries are quartzite, calcareous shale, silicious limestone, and slate No fossils have been found, but it is believed the sedimentaries are mainly Cambrian
 Cochise Peak, the upper end of the property, is an intrusive stock of gran ite having a bowishaped contact with silicious limestone on its north side, Along this contact for over half mile there is wide zone of contact meta morphic rock, showing in places cop per minerals associated with garnet, pyroxene, calcite, etc. Practically the only work done on this end of the property is that on the Cobreloma vein, which is exactly on the contact of granite and black slate. This vein is from 2 to 6 feet wide and shows commercial ore in the drift on the levin along a distance of about 200 feet. The minerals are chalcopyrite and pyrite, with peculiar 'hematite in a gangue of garnet, epidote, and other minerals. The other, showings on the granite contact are much wider, but have not been developed as yet, af- though the granitized zones show gos- sans of limonite and hematite Carry T avNd of copper
 Ore Deposits
 There are a number of outcrops and gossans on the lower end of the prop erty, but the Missouri" ore-body is the only one that has been partially developed as yet. It was from this de posit that the old Middlemarch Cop per company extracted the ore treated in their small smelting furnace. The Continued on Page EighD

Mining Notes Of
 Warren District

Seventy per cent of the 1000, ,00O shares outstanding on the Gadsden Copper company at Jerome are opt toned to the Calumet & Arizona Min ing company, in consideration of that company's agreement to develop the property. The Gadsden development is probably the largest in the chrome district.
 It has been found that the partici- patton by the Mexicans in the safety first meetings at the Copper Queen shelter has placed sense of respons- ibility upon the Mexicans not hereto fore discovered, and their feeling, when asked to participate in Amer ican institutions is quite changed.
 The Arizona Commercial at Globe pumped 311 100000 gallons of water last year, pumping as high as 1,202,50 gallons in one day. It is believed that much of the water pumped by the Ari- zona Commercial is coming from the Iron Cap ground, and the Arizona Commercial is attempting to recover this added cost
 In spite of the fact that the Cop per Queen library was closed for three months during 1918 on account of in fluenza, its circulation was almost 25, 900 books, and it's reading room at- tendance over S5,000, which speaks well for the literary inclinations, of a mining camp.
 The city of Douglas used $500 worth of Glendale lettuce, $500 worth of Glendale canteloupes and $500 worth of Glandale fruits last year. The Salt River valley evidently can furnish the mining camp needs in food lines, and save the miners the neces- sity of resorting to canned goods.

NEGROES BARRED
FROM STOCKYARDS
Decision Reached Not to
Permit Return of $4,000
Negro Workers
BY Associated Press


Chicago. August 2.-To prevent a pos
sible recurrence of fires which early to-
day destroyed six blocks of homes OF
stock yards workers, negro labor will be
barred from the yards, it was announced
tonight after a conference between Gov
ernor Lowden and the packers.
The stock yards had been storm CEN
ter during the race riots this week and
with peace restored yesterday it had beer
planned to permit the 1900 negro work
ers to return Monday.
However, feeling was aggravated by the
fire. which many of the foreign workers
who were made homeless charged the ne
groes with starting. 1t was therefore de
cided to change the plans.
Governor Lowden expressed the belief
that labor trouble rather than race feel
ing was responsible for the fire, despite
statements that witnesses had reporte
to the fire attorney that they saw ne
groes starting fires in the neighborhood.

AR MAIL SERVICE
 COMPLETE SUCCESS
Years Trial Demonstrates Practicability of Plane
 For Commercial Use.
By Associated Press

Macon, May 7-Th same two airplanes, equipped with the same motors that made the first regular mail trips between Washington and New York year ago will fly over this route on May 15 the first anniversary of the establishment of aerial service
 This fact, Otto Praeger Second Assist ant Postmaster General, said in an ad- dress here tonight at the Southeastern Aeronautical congress, proved that the service had been success in rain, shine and gales. One years operation also demonstrated, Mr. Praeger declared, that commercial flying was vastly different from military flying. The government therefore, has profited by the experience, and on June will receive bids and speci- ffcations for a mail plane, especially de- signed for postal flying. Delivery will begin six months thereafter.
 With these specially constructed planes Mr Praeger predicted greater develops ment of the service. Tn years flying' covering more than 125,G00 miles, not one pilot was killed, he said and with such a record of safety of operations" it was not surprising to find insurance com panies soliciting policies on the lives of the air mail pilots

ANITA STEWART SUCCESS
 IN FROM HEADQUA

Prom Headquarters, the Anita, Stew art special production, appearing at the Alcazar this week, is proving one of the most popular pictures seen in Birming ham recently. The attendance at the AL cazar has been at about capacity at every showing.
 From Headquarters is the story of a working girl who, in her innocence, ac- cepts the attentions of her employer, only to be east aside later on when his fancy is attracted by a new face. How she seeks to be replaced in his affec- tions narrowly escapes enguifing herself in criminal prosecution and the strug- gle which her father makes to decide between love and duty make an unusual photoplay.
 Miss stewart's acting is declared to be the best of her career, according to W. N. Hulsey, prominent Birmingham man, who follows the current releases closely.
