their officers. Mr.. Walls Thought that
Senator Higgins was Inan Of his word.
Mr.. Wells remembered that the senator
had asked forgiveness for his mistake at

Moreover, Mr.. Walls was friend Of Mr..
Treat and he had an idea that defeated

the postmaster for the town in which he
resided. he farther thought that since

THE ARTESIAN WELL.
The New Casing Arrives and Boring t"
be Resumed Tomorrow.

Chas. Lefever, the artesian we'll con-
tractor, returned from Denver last night,
bringing down 1000 feet of casing for the
we'll. This was loaded on wagons at the
depot to-day and sent out to camp. and
tomorrow the drill will again be set Al
work, starting in at 800 feet. This new
casing is four and one. fourth inches in
diameter, and will slide down inside the
five and tive-eights casing now in place.
By the use Of this smaller casing the
water now forced up two-thirds of the
distance from the bottom is expected to
come up still higher, and by its use also
the drill can be put down through
the quicksand which caused suspension
of work one week ago last Saturday. The
contractor feels confident that not far of
exists a great pressure OF some sort, else
the quicksand could never have forced its
way up in the bottom of the well against
the heavy volume of water resting Oh it,
Any hour may bring forth spouter after
the drill is put in motion tomorrow.

MINUTES FROM THE MINES,
A Budget of General News Touching
Topics In south santa Fe County

Milo Hill, who is working a force ON
"the Mint" gold prospect in the east
end of the San Pedro district, is in town
to-day and reports affairs tiour'shing in
his camp. He says Ed. 8, Griswold is
down there for his health and is steadily
improving.
AMONG THE MINERS.
Ore shipments from the Lincoln-Lucky
have been resumed.
John King has raised 5000 with which
to start up the San Pc lro public school.
Charles Hubbard, formerly of Pedro,
died OF pneumonia at Dolores on Wednes-
day last.
An important strike in the north Ger
rillos coal fields has been made by ID. b.
Cartwright.
The lumber for the new concentrating
works at San Pedro, about 100000 feet,
will be supplied by Charles Ilfeld, OF Las
Vegas. He got it by rustling.
No wonder David L. Miller ran like a
yellow dog that had been successfully
"Csnned." He was on both tickets in
The Cerrillos precinct for the office Of
school director.
OF. Perry returned from San Pedro
this morning He met three teams goint,
in loaded with scrapers, shovels, ETC., to
be used in the construction OF the Pecos-
Pedro pipe line.
Good galena carbonates were struck in

ext mt of the ore body is as vet not def
nitely known. Assays show $2S silver,
and Is per cent lead.
John Gray has employed U. S. deputy
surveyor to make complete survey OF the
Chester mine in the Cerrilos camp. He
hopes to get soon full return for his in
vestments in that rich mining district.
The Cerrilos paper thinks it would be
proper, all things considered, for the San
ia Fe company to remove the headquar-
tiers of their division up to that place from
Wallace, an Insignificant town on all In
dian reservation!
The concentrator ordered for San Pedro
is a 200 ton plant, not 100, as reported
the other day. 1t will cost some $780, OC
in place. On the dump Of the Santa Fe
Copper company's mines are said to be
40 900 tons OF ore that Can only be treated
by the process OF concentration.
The present artesian well experiment
at Santa Fe, bids fair to prove a success
Over 500 feet of water is in the hole ant
as the drilling continues, noticeable in
