ogical Survey in Bulletin 582, to
extend 1000 feet in its major
axis, and 1900 feet on the minor
axis. The workings demonstrate
thirty million tons of 1880 cop
per ore; and accepting Schrader's
figures development of the ore
body into it's limit will prove sixty
millions of tons of such ore, all
of which can ibe extracted and
treated at a handsome profit. The
upper tunnels which cut clear
through the mountain are 500
feet below the crest Of the noun
tain, and the lower tunnel is 265
feet lower down. Present ore
demonstration is all above the
lower tunnel. Jointly there are
between 1000 and 5000 feet Of
workings in the two tunnels.
At the base of the mountain, in
Providencia Canyon, another tun-
mel site. where the Kino Copper
Company plans driving another
tunnel, such a working would
penetrate the ore body just 1000
feet below the crest of the
mountain, and geological indica-
tions are that it continues on two
per cent copper ore all the way
down. About 1875 feet Of tun-
mel driven already gives excellent
indications of existence of the ore
body at that depth.
But present development is all
that is necessary to consider at
the present writing. That dew
elopment demonstrates 30,0O0,00O
tons of 29S copper ore. A reduction
plant treating 1000 tons of ore
daily would be forty years work
ing out the demonstrated ore; and
extension of present workings to
the limit of the ore body would
give constant operation that same
length of time to plant with a
daily capacity of 5000 tons. After
studying the formation inspecting
the ore body as developed, and
analyzing the assay map, Mr.. G.
F. E. Wilson, an expert mining
engineer pronounces the Red
Mountain ore body of "The Kino
Copper Company" as zone of the
greatest deposits of two per cent
copper on the continent"
A number of big concerns have
signified a desire to investigate
the property with a view to pur-
chase outright. A blue print of
the assay map with an engineers
rerort based thereon, will be for
warded to all of them and it may
result in a sale.
This immense property Is but
eight miles away from Nogales in
direct line, and Red Mountain is
but twelve miles away. There
will be another Bisbee or Miami
out there within a very few years.
Colonel Bird, president of The
Kino Copper Company, and his
associates, have wrought assidu-
ously through two years to con-
, solidate these great holdings, hold
ing them together, an accomplish
present demonstration. They have
reached position now. where sue
cess is assured; and that success
will establish in Santa Cruz Coun'
| tv another Ajo-which latter
doubled the assessable value OF
Pima county when it began pro
ducing, and cut the tax rate in
two.

DEMPSEY TO POUND
SPARRlNG PARTNERS
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
SARATOGA LAKE, n. Y, July 10.
After a day of idleness. Jack Demp-
sey was intent on giving his sparring
partners plenty of work today.
With only six more days of train
ing left before he steps into the ring
to meet Jack Sharkey at the Yankee
Stadium. Dempsey is satisfied he will
overcome the youth and speed of
Sharkey with an old.fashioned exhibit
ton of punching.
In his workout in the canvas.in-
closed ring by the shores Of Saratoga
Lake Dempsey has failed to display
any flashing speed, and his boxing has
been visible by it's lack of effective
ness, but he has been punching, APP.
parently as hard as ever in his bril-.
liant career, and it is the power of
his punch on which he depends To
carry him through to victory over
the lightning-fast Sharkey.
Dempsey has deliberately taken
blow after blow from his sparring
mates to weave into close quarters and
batter away at their blow-wracked
bodies. Jack Hildebrand, Bill Batey
and Pietro Corr left yesterday. Eddie
McMullen has been ENABLE to box In
week. Chief Met6duah and Marty
Gallagher were stiffened In their last
workouts.
