Talk With Searle'i Mining Man.
II. J. CirUel, Kfiirr.il manager of the
expensive mining interests ol many limes
milllouaiir John K. Searles, came in l;rl
day and will remain (or a few days at the
Cornucopia properties. In conversation
with a Tosctu reporter, the general mana
ger Mated that the building of the great
electric power plant now in process of i
erection at Coruikopi.i, will pl.ue the
Searles mine on a moie primaueut basis
than ever before and will greatly reduce
the operating e.penses. The power de
veloped will be that ol 500 hordes and will
be liansmllted to the mine and mills two
miles, away by .1 dipper wire three-eights,
ot an huh In diameter. At the time Mr.
CirUel lelt New Yoik it was undecided
whether to purchase two 250 horse power
motors or wait until one ol 500 horse
power could be built. The manager
rather favors the latter cruise, and it Is
very probable that it will be done. I he
'eiieral Electric company, of New York,
will placr the order. Much additional ma
chiuerv will be purchased for mines and
mill, some of whiJi being an air compres
sor, a hoist and'power drills. All will be
ol most modern design and thoioughly
up to date. It will lake until December
1st belore ever thing is in successful
opeiation, owing to the long time uev.es
s.iry to Mil a m.uhineiv order of this sie.

Rich Copper Find on Goose Creek.
If tellable reports are to be believed
there are big ledges ol copper ore on
(loose creek, to miles southeast of Union,
in Union counts', and about two and a
hull miles from the old Dolly Varden
quart mine on the toad between Sputa
and Sanger. Prisons who have come In
Irom the new copper district say there
are wonderful deposits of the red metal.
On the Heard claim a ledge has been
crosscut live Irrt but no walls h ivr brm
found. 1 he ore Is hemitite iron, sulphur
cts and grey copper. 'I he district shows
wonderful surface indications and it is
the opinion ol those who are making in
vestigation that the district will br a
great producer ot copper whenever capital
and practical mining are employed.

Pelton Water Motor
Is so superior to all others as regards strenth, durability and rconomv of
water, in fact all that constitutes a HIGH CLASS WATER MOTOR,
as to admit of no comparison, adapted to every variety of service and
made of sizes varying Irom the fraction of 1 up to 100 H. P. Recent
scientific tests made at the Michigan University in connection with sev
eral other motors claimed to be the best on the market showed 4$ per
cent higher efficiency in favor of favor of the PELTON, while the rela
tive cost per H. P. to buy was only one-third to one-half that of others.
Water companies desiring to make the best of their water supply should
discriminate in favor of the PELTON. Deliveries made from New York
or San Krancisco, as may afford the best freight rates. Circulars free.
One of these motors can be seen any time operating THE MlNi-R presses.
