Stark Bro’s Nurseries & Orchards Co., Louisiana, Mo. U. S. A. “Greenwater Plan” Looks Good In Mining— Original Property Failing, Equipment Goes To a New Field As a contrast to the many min ing companies which are failures, it is certainly gratifying, and a matter of pride, to tell oi one which has been so well managed that while its mining ground has proven to be a failure the company has not yet gone to the demnition bow-wows, but still has a substantial treasury and is taking steps to carry out the inten tion of its stockholders in develop ing and operating a profitable copper mine. The Greenwater Copper company, after sinking on its claims at Green water to a depth of 1,400 feet and doing much other exploratory work reached the conclusion that while tfie property contains copper it la too low grade to be made profitable, and that it would be good business to utilize the remainder of the treas ury in developing some other prop erty. Consequently the Greenwater is being abandoned by the company and its machinery—one hundred tons of it—will be immediately brought to the railroad at Death Valley sta tion, preparatory to being forward ed to the new location of the com pany. Just where the new location will be is not determined—or at least not announced. It is understood that the company is investigating the mer its of other properties and it may be some time before decision is made. A1 McPherson, of Rhyolite, haB taken the contract to move the ma chinery from the mine to the railroad and has already tackled the Job. The course of this company is a commendable example in mining, and it is good business. It has nearly $150,000 still in its treas ury and much suitable mining ma chinery. Both of these assets the managers propose to employ in carrying out the original object of the investors. It is probable that such sterling management will succeed in devel oping a property and establishing a profitable mine for the company. It is well to note that not all dis appointed companies go to pieces completely. All can not be great, but every body can be grateful.—Dallas News. ALBERT SPALDING. FAMOUS AMERICAN VIOLINIST.

The tables, which were arranged in the form of a large horseshoe, supported in the cen ter a beautiful swan of ice, with upraised head and wings, car rying on its back a huge cluster of pink carnations.
