A Valuable Mining Properly.

\ collection of ores taken from a group of mines recently discovered and now recorded. have been brought here for assay. The mines are owned by Messrs. George Robinson and Jas. R. Smith. and are situated in the foothills on the Northwestern slope Of the Milestone Mountains, where wood and water abound in sufficient quan- titles for a large camp. The mines are about two miles southeast of Kin near's old stage stati0n-better known as Ash Springs-aud about seven miles south of Benson. The above mentioned mines arc beautifully sit uated. on an almost level plain-nol a break by any washer in any of them. They form a triangle-and four centre in one grand blowout, and form what is known as the Emerald mine. At one point, near the sum init of a high knoll, and on the east side. the hill is literally covered with rich looking ore, and when work on these mines begins, will undoubtedly open up a bonanza for the fortunate owners.
 Mono District is a new one, and but few know its location. It is about seven miles southerly from Benson and the san Pedro River-kinnears is about the centre. The climate k the best, and for beautiful scenery, they challenge all Arizona
 There iS considerable work of de- velopment now going on in the dis trict, the Monarch mine, owned by Bellva aLd Julien has a shaft down 90 feet. and assays way up The Mammoth, on the same ledge. Is also down about 90 feet, and is now look ing finely, having just reached the ore body. Mr George Robinson is working the Monarch and Hercules. They both promise well. Our fellow tOwusman, MT John Moore, IS the fortunate owner of 90 half interest in the Mohawk and Hercules. The O. K and Northern Don, all owned by these gentlemen. show up well. The Hercules is a very wide lode; cut across the ledge of 70 feet has not yet reached the fOOt-waE It is believed to be the COmstOck of the Milestone mountains.
 The Advance Mining Company will soon have a force of men to work on their mines, the Mamie, Advance and Cook County A prospect shaft of 5O feet will be put down on each mine, and 1t will not be long before the steam whistle will " wake 'cm up ' in this promising district.

rba Grating Belt.

The present cattle grazing belt Of inc United States (wild lands) Is said to be about 2000 miles in length and $50 in width. It stretches from the Rio Grande to Manitoba. In the eX- treme southern and northern portion it is neither highly elevated nor par tcularly dry, but for the greater DOT ton of 1t lies along the surface of high table lands. IL is stated that the cost of raising a four-year old steer, which will sell at the depots at an average oi S30, will not exceed S3.50. The in crease is about 30 per cent. a year. It requires, however, a round sum oi money to successfully start the ousi- ness of cattle raising, which IS grad nally falling into the hands Of large droyers.

An Ihinfic HnndInm.

Sunday when the President Jeff the car at the station 10 enter the car riage, some irresponsible smart Aleck in the crowd saw fit to deliberately utter an insulting remark that the President had been " counted in. ' The puppy who did it is known, and should suffer general condemnation.
 He probably thought it smart to in- suit the President of the United States -one of the best Presidents, too, tha, the United States has ever had. lt was just as well for him that he was not so generally known at the time as he is now, or he would suffer on the spot the punishment which he so richly deserved. It is but just tO add that his conduct is, if anything, more severely condemned and de spised by Democrats than it is by Re publicans. The expression on the streets after the President had gone was one of regret that an impertinent idiot, without a dollars worth of in- terest in our city, should be al- lowed to cast a damper over the hearty welcome which our people felt,
 and blot on the fair fame of Tucson.

THE CITIZEN.
DISAPPEARED.
F. \. snider Leaves Tucson Very Sud- denly in Consequence of Domestic Troubles.

E. N sSnider, who has been acting as agent of the Southern Pacific Rail way at this city during the absence of MT. Cash, left town very suddenly Monday morning without intimating 10 any one his destination so far as is known. Ugly rumOrs began as soon as his disappearance became generally known tO fly about as to the cause of his action, and in order to get at the truth in the matter a CITREN re- porter sought Superintendent Curtis for the facts in the case.
 MT. Curtis expressed the most sin cere regret that NIT. Snider sLould have taken the course he did, and stated that he had the fullest con fidence in the missing mans integrity Mir. Seyler, the Travelling Au- ditor of the company, fortunately hap pened to be iE the city, and that gen. tleman had carefully examined Sni der's accounts. finding them in good shape and regularly and well kept. Instead of being d defaulter, Mr. Snider had still a tritiing balance du0 him on his salary Mir. Curtis as sured the reporter that from what he knew of Mir. Snider's affairs, he had reason to believe that matters outside of those connected with the company had induced him to abscOnd.
 What the matters referred Co were MT. Curtis declined to say, but from the talk among the employees Of the railway generally, it would seem that his troubles were of domestic nature solely. It is alleged that the conduct of his wife, who lives in this city, has been notoriously and shamelessly bad, and that his life had in consequence become unbearable. Taking this view of the case, MT. Snider's disap- pearance carrIes with 1t no blame whatever.
 IL seems that this is not the first time that the unfortunate young man has been forced by the same cause to throw up lucrative and honorable positions. Before coming to Tucson, he was manager of the American District COmpany's office in San Fran CISCO, receiving q handsome salary and enjoying the confidence of his employers. In that city, also, his wife contributed to throw odium On his name, and after trying the eXperi- ment of sending her and his children, of whom he has three, back to Iowa, where her conduct vas, If anything, worse, he was forced, after his family returned, 10 resign his position and walk out of town" as the railroad boys figuratively put it. As in the present instance he left his accounts perfectly straight, but was forced tC leave some of his San Francisco cred itors without paying them at the time. Since he has been in Tucson he has honorably paid every one of those debts.
 They of the public who have had occasion tO transact business with MT. Snider at the depCt will testify to his courteous and obliging disposition. His intimate friends describe him as of a particularly sensitive nature. and a few of them fear that he has taken his own life as a means of escape from his nightmare of shame, from the fact that investigation fails to reveal the means by which he left the city. Ii is certainly to be hoped that those fears are UngrOunded.

The Comstock Goats.
Virginia Chronicle !

The predatory goats that roam through the city have a tough time thls season skirmishing for grub. CrlHolines arc out of fashion and con sequenty scarce, and the small boy Is lively competitor for barrel hoops and other morsels. A flock of goats that infest the old Gould & Curry grounds were well fixed early in the season, and with prudence the circus bills on the old fence would have lasted until late in the fall. but after the lire the fence was torn down and new one erected. There being no more shows in town, the new fence remained devoid of nu;riment except splluters. and as long as goat can Ind brick to nibble he won't eat splinters. This flock was reduced to the necessity of licking the labels off stray oyster cans that had escaped the notice of the small boy with designs upon the peace of mind of an unfor- tunate cur, and in short time looked very Tanneresque. Yesterday luck sent a theatrical agent along with a bonanza of highly-colored posters. The new fence was gOrgeously decor ated with nutritious works of art in the morning, and before night the goats were rcyeling in abundance of prOvender. The old darkey. printed m black on yellow ground, was de- youred up to the second button on his vest, and the scene between the lovers was sadly marred by a strip torn out or the young lady from the hem of her princess train to the corner of her lett eye, which was being discussed with great relish by two of the flock. A big billy-goat tackled the ballet dancer, but with a sense of proprietv somewhat rare, he suspended opera lions at the knees and cOntented him self with alunch of cold veal. One unfortunate cripple goat, that hops about on three legs and is unable to reach as high as the others, got noth- ing but the date lines and the price of admission, and until the rain peels off the upper portions of the posters, he will have a hard rustic for a square meal.

\ singular Contest.

There is a remarkable Congres- sional canvass in one of the Virginia Districts. where John $. Wise, son Of the great Know KnothiDg eXtermln- ator. and his double first-cousin, Geo. D. Wise. are running against each other, the one as a Readjuster, and the other as a straight-out Democrat. According to the old Southern fashion, the candidates hold joint discussions, and each makes the fur of the other fly in way that would lead to a duel were these old times. Incidentally an exposure is made of the nepotism that prevailed in those times, one Wise showing that his father, while in Congress, had all his nephews 0uartered upon the Government, and claiming that his opponent, as one of the beneficiaries of this charity at Government expense, is guilty of mgratitude to the head of the family in running for Congress against his cousiu. Another interesting feature of the canvass is the appearance of the son of Henry Wise as the friend and champion of the colored voter, and not only repudiatiDg Democracy, but declaring that he is prouder ot hls New England than of his Virginia ancestors. Truly things have changed down South.

 The New York correspondent of the Arizona CITIZEN seems quite hopeful ofthe Wall street future of the mines, sItbough he admits that just at pres ent he public are letting mining alone and have left the mining mar ket in the hands of the professionals. TIa draws comfort from the very fact and savs. Indeed, ii is a healthy and encouraging sign that the public have lost their interest m the game that has been conducted at the stock boarls. with is delusiye promises oi srecdv fortunes. Large profits are heinz paid at mines tihat are not .IistcdJ in many mining districts, constant accession is being made to inc number of producing properties, and at no previous time has more eastern capital been seeking invest ment in valuable mining properties m Colorado. Arizona and New Mexico tbqn at present." There can be no donbt that an era of depression such as the correspondent pictures in New York and we are experiencing here has its very good uses. lt Is well that the public should come to a proper realization of the status of the mining and stock business. If the disasters of the past and the dullness of the present awake everybody to the fact that the proposition involved in inc purchase of stock should be a business one and cannot safely be considered as any other, San Fran cisco vii! have no reason to regret Its sutTerings. New York and the other Eastern cities which are taking an in- terest in mines have had our eNper- fence to guide them and are more cautious than we have been. We shall be very glad to see universal the habit of looking al a inning ln- vestment, not as one would regard a deposit on a faro table but as one would regard the purchase of a share in a store, a manufactOry or ship. The principal involved is the same and should be considered as the same in each case. The dullnesS of our market now is, after,all satisfactory be- cause it is natural. The public very properlv demand a showing of ore be- fore buying stock at ore-prices and we. for one. shall not blame them if tbev hold aloof until the ore-shOwlng shall be made.
