Easy Way to Make Money.
! The easiest money-making schema that ever came under my,notice, says a westerner, is at Jerome, Aria. Thera Is a little brook at that place that runs out of the lower workings of Senator Clark’s United Verde mine. This was er percolates all through certain sulphuretlc copper and gold deposits in the bowels of the earth, and as a result when it runs out of the mine into a pool arranged for its reception it la heavily loaded with liquid copper. The mining people dump scrap iron of all kinds into the pool, and the presence of the iron in the water precipitates the copper in solid form to the bottom of the pool, where it is picked up in Irregular shapes. I was told the last time I was In Jerome that Clark’s poo pie pick out of that scrap iron pool about SOOO or S7OO worth of practically pure copper every twenty-foui hours.
