STEAM SHOVELS
STRIP
OF ORE BODIES
PRESCOTT, Ariz., June 21 (by As
sociated Press).—Within a few weeks,
the United Verde Mining company at
Jerome will start its project to steam
shovel 14,000.000 tons of rock off the
side of a mountain in order to ex
pose greater copper ore bodies that
have been burning for years from
their own sulphur content. Assistant
General Manager Robert E. Tally,
says the company’s program will pro
^ vide 15 years’ work, and that approx
imately 5,000,000 tons of rich copper
ore will be transported 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 larg
est ore bodies and with the waste
dirt and rock, build a platform far
below in the gulch, to accommodate
a new townsite that will adjoin the
the present town of Jerome.
One of the provisions of this opera
tion is for a full size baseball dia
mond to be laid out entirely on built
land.
As a result of the steam shovel
operations, large bodies of ore in what
are known as the ‘“fire stopes” will
be exposed. Some of these fire
areas have been burning for years;
the first one started in 1894 from the
heat developed in a cave-in. Since
^ then many underground battles have
occurred between the miners and the
glowing copper sulphides, and until
1905 when the amazing system of
blowing cool air into the 1200 degree
stopes was adopted, little success at
tended their efforts.
Water, steam and carbon dioxide
gas have all failed to smother fires
due to the broken character of the
rock, which permitted air to get in
and feed the fires.

HEALDSBURG, Cal., June 21 (by
Associated Press).—An unusual fire,
now raging in Redwood Grove at
Guerneville, near here, is consuming
Westover Park, and not only the big
redwoods but the very ground of the
park it self.
Many years ago the plot which now
constitutes the park was the site of
an old lumber mill. During the years
that the mill operated the layer of
sawdust and old wooden refuse be
came thicker and thicker, until it
reached a depth of 30 feet.
The action of the elements disinte
grated the wood particles into soil,
and young redwoods sprouted. Of late
years these trees have grown to a
large size and the place has become
a park.
About a week ago a fire started in
the dry sawdust, and the blaze spread
rapidly- A sawdust fire is said to be
one of the hardest in the world to
extinguish, and the Guerneville fire
department has been unable to cope
with the flames.
Several trees have already been
undermined and have fallen. The
sawdust on top. burning, dries out
that beneath, and thus the thirty-foot
layer of decaying wood is gradually
eating itself up. It is thought that
the fire may possibly burn out in a
month or two.
