FIVE MILLION TONS OF
 COPPER TO BE REDEEMED

PRESCOTT, Ariz., July 24- Within q few weeks the United Verde Min ing Company at Jerome will start it's project to shovel l4,OOO,OOO tons of rock off the side of a mountain in order to expose great copper orc bodies that have been burning for years from their own sulphur con tent. Assistant General Manager Robert F.. Tally says the company's program will provide l5 years work and that approximately 5,OOO,OOO tons of rich copper ore will be trans ported by what are declared to be the most economical mining methods known.
 The United Verde intends to tear down the overlay of one of its largest ore bodies and with the waste dirt and the rock, build platform far below in the gulch, to accommo- ate a new townsite that will ad- join the present town of Jerome
 One of the provisions of this operation is for full sized baseball diamond to be laid out entirely on built land.
 As a result of the steam shovel operations, large bodies of ore ir what are known as the "fire stopes' will be exposed. Some of these fire areas have been burning for years the first one starting in 1894 from the heat developed in cave-ln Since then many underground battles have occurred between the miner: and the glowing copper sulphides and until 1905, when the amazing system of blowing cool air into the |, 200 degree stopes was adopted, litti' success attended their efforts.
 Water, steam and carbon diovid gas have all failed to smother the fir es due to the broken character of tn rock, which permitted air to get il and feed the fires.

TREATMENT OF WOMEN STILL DARKEST PHASE
 OF EGYPTIANS LIFE

LONDON, July 24- The treatment of women in Egypt is the darkest phase of Egyptian life, says G. N. Barnes, Member of Parliament, who has recently returned from a tour of that country.
 The men in Egypt, said Mir. Bar neS, so far as sex relations were concerned, thought themselves the Lords of creation. They could di- vorce their wives at will without whim or reason, and it was not un- common for a man to have three wives.
 "In many houses, continued Mr. Barnes, "I never saw a woman, and you can take it from me, that the po- sition of the women in Egypt is one of serfdom and dependence. They spend their lives in miserable novels; in working in the adjoining fields oi in getting water.
 "They are serfs of the men and as much beasts of burden as the donkey and the camel. A people which uses women folk in that way are destined to be a subject race anc do not deserve to govern"
