those boats were condemned before their

in congress. The democracy dared
not { oppose the plans of q new

prIation because, as they claimed IN
their congressional speeches, the money
would not be honestly used. The APP

asked for. Mine was the lowest bid be-

Garland has repudiated the contract and

We are not advised as to the station of the remaining company, but it will probably be at Fort Bowie, or Huachuca.
 The Apaches do not fear the colored troops but have contempt for them. They have received this idea from the New Mexico Indians, who have been in contact with them.
 The military posts ia Southeastern Arizona are quite strong in men. Fort Grant has six companies of soldiers, which the hve companies of black troops increases to eleven. Our Territory is protected with three full regiments, the 4th and 10th Cavalry and the lst In fantry. At the various posts there are also number of howitzers and Napo- leon suns.-E Index.

Robert Toombs of Georgia is quoted as saying 'The greatest.vice to which the human family is addicted is gambling, and yet do you know there isn't . word in the bible in condemnation of it. There is nothing in the ten commandments, nothing in the sermon on the mount, nothing anywhere in the bible against the passion that leads to more sins than almost any other." As far as the exact language of the bible is concerned the general is all right. The ten command ments do not say: ''Thou shalt not bet, and the sermon on the mount contains not single reference to faro or roulette, still the scriptures are full of passages upon which sermon against gambling can be based.

MINE POINTERS.

Tn this country too little atte ention Is paid to having good plans of mines: ac- curate surveys, accurately put on paper, with a system of contour plans say every Zen feet properly plotted. Such records are very useful. not only for carrying on works, but serve as records which may be e--of service in future explorations. Some few of our large mines pursus this plan, but the system is by no means general. a
 Steady work on a productive mine with plenty of ore will pay better in the long run than a rich strike of . small bunch of ore--fet, too many miner. are looking for the small, rich punches. The mines tha: have paid best in this State are rot those with specimen rock, or those which have showed ore worth sl, ,000 ton. The best paying mines are those which have paid small prof, CD each ron, by turning out good many tons. Prospectors should remember this fact
 Of all the mistakes made in mining matters none have led to more disas- trous results than that of spending large sums on surface improvements before actual underground development war ran,ed it. Milling or milling plants, working machinery, wagon roads, tram ways, etc, are of course necessary to big mines, hut it by no means is the first necessity for them. There are more in. stances of wrecks of mining property from heavy surface improvements than from underground expenditures.
 The plan of leasing mines is develop ing many good mines that would other wise be idle, by this system, and men are given employment that pleases them. People in this country prefer to work for themselves where possible, and this sys- ten is producing very good results wherever in vogue. A few years ago very little mining was done in this cour- try on this plan - Mining and Scientific Press,
