The Copper King mine, under the management of D. Cough, is showing up wonderfully we'll, and as it lays now is undoubtedly the finest looking copper property in the Southwest. The development work, without stop ing, has produced 1000 tons of ore on the dumps which will average at the very least 25 per cent. The workings at one point show 9-foot ledge of solid glance ore. One shot put in there one day this week knocked down fifteen tons of ore which will
 run 50 per cent. The mine is now in
 such shape that it could easily pro- duce 100 tons of 30-per cent ore daily.

The PheniX Tribune has the follow ing account of a woman not long since resident of Clifton: Annie Goodall, the unfortunate woman who was committed to the Insane Asylum a week ago yesterday, died in that institution on Sunday morning at 9:30. At the time of her commitment she was suffering from a mild form of lunacy, but after being there a few days, typhoid malaria, in its most vir- ulent type developed itself, and on Sunday the disease Overcame her and she succumbed to its powers After her death it was discovered that her body was covered with welts and bruises, and this gave rise to the opinion that she had been subjected to abusive treatment. This, however. is denied by the asylum authorities, who state that they were the result of natural causes. However, an in- vestigation of the matter should be had, and if any cruelty or abusive treatment has been practiced, the blame should be charged to the prop CT person. The deceased woman was the daughter of well-to-do English people, and was well educated, and is said to have possessed much refine ment and cultivation. Her funeral took place yesterday from Gregory,s undertaking establishment, and the remains were followed to the grave by number of friends.

A Cowardly Assault at the Metcalf

Dick Williams was the victim of a cowardly assault last week at the Met calf. It seems that Dick had gone into the store for glass of beer be- fore proceeding to his dinner, and there found number of men, among them Jack McQuigan, shaking dice. Being asked to join them in the game MT. Williams did so. and McQuigan lost. The former then refused to shake again, which made the latter angry and he followed Dick out of the store and called to him to stop. Upon coming up to him McQuigan drew his pocket knife and telling Dick he was going to kill him made a vicious lunge at his stomach, the knife cutting a slit in his shirt and under-clothing and just grazing the flesh. As Williams turned to run he stabbed him in the shoulder. Dick kept on running up the hill, but stum- bled and fell, when his assailant came up to him and stabbed him again just over the kidneys. Dick finally got away from McQuigan by running among some mules and after barley ing with him finally persuaded the fellow to go back to the store with him and have drink. After their arrival there Williams told McQuigan that he was stabbed, when the latter replied that he ment to kill him. and would do it yet.
 Williams then went to his bed and Dr. Lacy being summoned, found that the wounds, though quite painful were not necessarily serious.
 McQuigan was subsequently, arrest ed and brought to Clifton. He was to have had his examination Tuesday but Monday night escaped from his guard and has not yet been captured
 Williams is able to be about and was down Tuesday for the purpose ot prosecuting his assailant.

The Divorce Question.

Toledo Blade: As there has been con-
siderable discussion in the newspapers
over Mrs. Mona Cards question, rs
Marriage a Failure?" it may be of inter-
est to the public to know that the govern.
ment, for the first time in its history, is
to publish statistics on divorces.
Col. Carroll D. Wright, labor commits
sioner, is busy preparing the report au
thorized by congress about two years ago,
and it will probably prove to be one of
the most interesting works ever published
by the government. It's magnitude may
be understood when it said that Col.
Wrights agents have obtained the figures
from every court in the United States
having divorce Jurisdiction, of which
there are some 2,700, aud that the period
of investigation extends back twenty
%years-from 1866 to 1886.
Everything relating to the subject will
be given wherever it is possible to obtain
this information from the cour records,
and in every case the agents not only ex
amined the docket, but the original bill,
filed. The report of each case will give
the age of the parties, the cause fol
which divorce was granted, whether tn.
wife or husband obtained the decree, thu
number of children, the place of mar
rage and the migrations of the coupl,
since then, 30 as to show whether th,
change was bona fde or merely for tn,
purpose of obtaining a divorce, til,
length OF time the marriage lasted, ant
any other fact that might tend to throw
light on the subject.
Another portion of the work will Civ,

records show, by counties. in the United
States, for the same period, 81 that tn,

The subject of divorce has never beel
SO thoroughly investigated before. TIL,
Italian government took up the inquiry
some years ago, but it was limited in it
range. Colonel Wright's report will I'm
undoubtedly find a place in the library o
every student of sociology. The cost o
the investigation, it is estimated, ha
probably been not less than $40, 900. w,
may expect, when this report is pub
lished, a wide discussion of the divorc,
question in all its aspects, and the result
we have no doubt, will be to give re
newed impetus 10 the movement in favo
of making the divorce laws of all state
