a prominent mining man of Itcpuhlic, WuhIi., says: "I coimidcr the Diadem the best property I have ever examined. It is surely a re
markable Knowing and, in my judgement, the making of u great mine." Hon. Chas. Bonner, connected with Granite Mountain mine,, in Mon
tana, nays: "In all my oxH.riuiico us a mining miK!rintcudcnt, extending over a criod of 20 years, I consider tho Diadem is by odds the best
mine I have ever been connected with." Hon. J. K. Pardee, a mining cxticrt well known all over Utah, Idaho and Montana, says: "In nil

MELLIS MINERAL DISPLAY.
Oregon Gold Nuggcti Attract Much Alien
Hon at Buffalo.
Systematic effort to convey practical In
formation both, to the savant and the
average sight seerer, Is the feature which
most Impresses in Oregon's splendid ex
titbit In the minion building.
Commissioner Frederick It. Mellis, of
Baker City, who has had charge of the
Installation of this exhibit, has seen to it
that the different specimens ate nut' only
properly classified, but that each sample
bears In plain legible type a label telling
what it is, where It came from and other
Information concerning It.
Calculated to arouse one's cupidity, is
an array ot gold nuggets, one of the most
Interesting features of the exhibit. These
range In value from $i to 6oo each, and,
with the exception of one small gold
brick, are virgin gold. For those who de
sire practical information, large chuncks
of ouartz are displayed on a massive cen
ter table, each specimen carrying a label
which gives the name and location of the
mine from which It came, the width of the
ledge, the value of the ore and other In
formation applying to that particular
property. The walls are lined with glass
cases containing thousands of attractive
specimens.
At Saturday night's reception hi the
mining building, Oregon played a promi
nent part. Commissioner Mellis pre
sented each guest with a handsome
souvenir of the occason, the memento be
ing a jewelry casket containing rich speci
mens of ore from Oregon mines.
Oregon has not only completely In
stalled Its mineral exhibit, but of all the
states It Is the first to announce complete
Installation In every department In which
it makes a showing mines, agriculture,
horticulture, forestry and education. H.
E. Dosch, superintendent of all the Ore
ton exhibits, has been the recipient of
many congratulations on account of the
celerity with which the Installation has
been accomplished, but In acknowledging
them he simply says:
"Oh, that's the way we do things out
In Oregon." Buffalo Courier.
Attempt to Form a Copper Trust.
Press dispatches of recent date report
that well authenticated advices from New
York are to the effect that conferences
among the officers of the Amalgamated
Copper company have been held In Wall
street for the purpose of arranging for the
Increase of the Amalgamated Copper
company's stock from $75,000,000 to
i5S,ooo,ooo. It Is now propsed to carry
out John D. Rockefeller's plan to secure
control of all of the Important copper
mines In the United States. To do this It
will require eventually a stock Issue of
$$00,000,000. As a result of a conference
William G. Rockefeller, secretary of the
Amalgamated company, sent out a notice
to stockholders to attend a special meet
Ing of the company to be held at Jersey
City, June 6, to take the necessary actloii
to authorize a stock Issue. The new stock
w ill be used to acquire the Boston &
Montana Copper and Consolidated Silver
Mining company and the Butte & Boston
Consolidated Mining company.
Public Waterlog Trough.
One of the most commendable acts
done by the city recently, Is the establish
ment of a large round drinking tank for
horses in the depot square, opposite the
Griffin hotel. This Is connected with the
water main and arranged so as to feed
automatically, but cannot overflow, as a
drain pipe carries off the water when It
reaches a certain height. The next thing
to do In connection with this Improvement
Is to prevent the band of Sumpter's med
dlesome youngsters from filling up the
tank and pipes with stones and mud, as
they commenced to do before the same
had been in use an hour.
