Is fhis Morgan K. Wise!

A short time ago an ex-member of Congress from Pennsy lvania, who was q candidate for the GOvernOrship of a Territory, called upon the Captain of the Treasury watch with Colorado man and asked place for him as watch man. The Congressman had secured pretty heavy endorsements for his friend. who had in turn endorsed him for the aforesaid GovernOrship. The ex- Congressman has been playing against hard luck on the territorial place. He sstonished the Captain of the watch a day or two ago.
 Have you given my friend from Colo rsdo that place yetY he anxiOusly in- qcired.
 Not yet" replied Captain McCres apologeticslly; "but I'll try and fix him up this month"
 Never mind. Lin fact wish to withdraw his endorsements and"
 What's the fellow being doing now asked the Captain.
 "Nothing-nothing; but you see I've had pretty bad tuck recently, and-well, l want the place myself
 The Captain was too much astOnished to speak at first, but finally said he didn't see why an I-Congressman wouldn't make good watchman, and this particular one has good command ing figure and the reputation of a mash CT. It is rather tough on the Colorado man.

The Cnenr h,Alenes

Matters are quiet just now, because the water is too high ln the maIn creeks and there Is no water m he gulches. The California ditch, built at the ex- pense of S1O0,0OO, will be finished soon and will furnish water for eight good claims. This is expected to liven things up considerably. One years experience has Droyed that the CCeur d'Alene dis trict is DO longer an experiment, but a permanent industry. Capital IS needed to construct ditches and erect stamp mills. and it would be forthcoming but for one draw6ack-dispute to the title to claims. A great deal of litigation IS going On over possession Of claims, put court convenes at Murry on the third Monday of July and good many kinks will be straightened out. There are 7, OOO men ID several camps. and while ev- cry one IS making fortunes. Mlssoula Gulch, the first one above Dream Gulch, has paid better this spring than any other claim. With six men working six hours a day they have beer taking out an average of twenty pounds of gold a week for the past seven weeks. The gold is worth at the mIne between sI6.50 and $l7 per ounce. Dr. Davis estimates the output Ot the mines at this time at about S30.000 a week. Quartz mining Is now attracting a good
 deal of attention, especially on Canon creek and Nigger Prairie. The latter
 locality is not exactly in the COeur d'Al- enes, but it is in that vicinity. In these two localities about 100 men are now engaged ID prospecting and devel- oping. The Tiger mine, on Canon creek, owned by Col Glidden, formerly of Gid den, Griggs < Co, St. Paul, is one of the most promising quartz properties in tEat section. The tunnel Is now in about 400 feet, and the ore body runs
 from ten inches to five feet in width.
 It is largely galens and carries about seventy ounces in silver. The Mother lode, near Murray which was bonded last winter to Colorado parties, IS still uusold. The holders of the bond went into the camp few days ago, and it IS not improbable that the sale will soon
 be made.-Butte, M. T., Inter-Mountsin.

Late Indian News.

Captain Lswton, with his company, from the neighborhood of the Fritz ranch, in the Huachucas, followed up the Indian trails on Sunday, into the Whetstones, and came suddenly upon the Indian camp.

 The Indians have stolen four of Vail & Harvey's horses and several from Dr. Brown. surgeon at Fort Huschucs-
 Four companies of negro soldiers were ordered to report to Gen.

The Character of the Owner Engrsfted on
 Ills Farm Products.
 The farm animals appreciate the cleanly habits of good master. and one might think, from the inv riable resemblance they bear to their sur roundings. that they try to emulate a thrifty, cleanly owner. A negro with out an unmatched team and q yellow cur under the wagon, is quite rarIty in the South. There seems to be a certain amount of affAiatiop between squalor in the human family and among the domestic animals There is no doubt but circumstance and en- virOnment rule the farm whether'they do the farmer or not A man who has any pride whatever will notsuPer his farm to go to wreck, and, ever il. he has no pride about it. his Pecuniary in- tereSts ought to tell him that he is driving his stock and his labor further and further from market becausesno one wants anything a shiftleSS- farmer can raisC- His only real products that is successful is weeds andscrubs.

The wild turkey is quite a different thing when it changes owners from the red to the white man, and the value a man can add to his animal product by care and skillful handling, while it may not appear great to the owner who associates from day to day with the barn-yard population, is really in time enormous. More or less of the character of the owner, in one sense. is engrafted on his farm products, and cleanliness and order are prime ele- ments in the grating process.-Nd' tiOHdl Lire Stock Journal.

AriZOna CauelE.

Some time ago number or camels were turned loose iD the Glla valley and being undisturbed thuyed and propagated in that section. Stockmen found when the number had increased considerably that they were very annoy ing to their herds, stampeding cattle and horses whenever they approached fine same. As a result a rule was made to kill every camel on sight. Two win ters ago m agent of some circus, secur- ed the assistance of Indiana, aud cap tured seven or eight head of these anl- mals. which were supposed to be all that remained in the territory, and shipped them east. We learn from J. ID. Rumburg, however, that the tracks of one large and one young camel have rapeatedly been seen on hls range on fine GiIa of late, their run seemingly being between the mouth of Agua tria and Hassayampa.

On coming down on tnls side of the Whetstones yesterday after noon, they met Lieutenant Fasen with two wagonloads of troops from Fort Hua- chuca. Fssen said he was going into the mountains with his infantry to try to dislodge the Indians, known to be some where in the mountains. He informed Outhouse and Walker that 24 horses had been captured from the Indians the day before and sent to the fort. Fasen is very likely to find the Indians and force them to an engagement as they are now all on Relationships

csRsRaLsLEE.
The Death Of the Dssstnenfshed- Csafeder-
 nfe Grneral.


 The death of General Robert E. Lee, at Lexington, Va, on the 12th of Octo- Der. 1870 removed an important actor in the recent Civil War. In the South. where he was best known and most be- loved; in the North, where his military genius and worth as a private citizen found due recognition. and in Europe. where his skillful generalship and per soDal courage had won him high re- nOwn. the tributes to the memory of the departed Southern chieftain hsve been generous. enthusiastic ard worthy of his fame. It may be truly said that personally General Lee had not an enemy. His heart overfiowed with love and charity toward all mankind. He drew his sword in the Civil War from a sense of duty to his native State; but when he sheathed it again under the apple tree atAppomattOX Court House, there was not stain upon its blade. Even those who were oppos d to Gen eral Lee upon the battlefield were as ready as his most intimate friends and ardent admirers to testify to his well deserved fame as a military leader, as well as to his many private virtues.
 General Lee, after the surrender at Appomattox. became President of Washington College, at Lexington, and devoted himself to the duties of that position. He was taken sick on Wednesday evening. September 2s. As he wa about to take his seat at the tea table h. sank in his chair and became insensible. A reaction soon set in, however. and in the course of the zen days following he steadily improved, until it was hoped he was out of danger. But on the following Monday evening he became suddenly and rapidly worse, and continued to sink until death claimed its victim. During the early part of his illness he slept much and spoke seldom. but was rational when awake, and always re- cOgnized those at his bedside. At times his mind seemed to wander, and ou several occasions reverted 10 the army. He once ordered his tent to be struck. and at another time desired that Hill should be sent to the front" He suffered but comparatively little pain during his illness. and expired very quietly and peacefully at 9:S0 on Wednesday morning.-Ben.

 DEAR RSIR; l have the honor to report that all the work in and about the nina IS progressing Gs usual.

When these connections are made We will have an outlet for all the ore on the North end ot The Peerless ground at depth of l5O Feet. A winze is being sunk near the North end of the Peerless pround as an ore chute for all that level.
