Development work now being done in Walker or Lone Star mining district in the Gila range north of Solononville and about twelve miles distant continues to yield favorable results. MT. Withe Walk CT, who owns several claims in the dis trict on which work has been progressing slowly but steadily for two months, left the early part of last week with mill sample of ore taken from the Cleveland and Transit mines for Fl Paso. Texas, to have it treated. A small but average sample was also sent to Mr. Chas Wores, of the Tucson Sampling Works for assay
 MT. Dan Ming, of this place, Is also interested in these properties and on Sat urday last received from Tucson MT. Wores' assay certificate, which showed that the. ore contained S2 ounces in silver and $5 in gold to the ton. MT. Walker also carried piece of ore taken from be- tween the Cleveland and the Transit mines, about 12 feet from the surface. which he thought was rich specimen, and in Ell Paso he had this assayed and the certificate showed that it carried II .- 954 ounces in silver to the ton

4 Midday Blaze.

As Prescott was enjoying its midday meal, today, an alarm of fire was sound ed, which brought the fire department and large contingent of citizens to the street. The fire was located in the res taurant connected with the Cob Web saloon. The restaurant was crowded with patrons at the time, among the nun Der being several firemen, who soon had the Toughs' hose oart out and line run to the fire. The fire started in the roof of the kitchen just over the range, and was speedily extinguished, the loss to the building being about $50 to $200. The restaurant owners lost about $75 to $10C in provisions and dishes, The drug store of Robinson 6 Brisley, adjoining, suffered from smoke and water, the loss being probably between $200 and $500. The Toughs won the record. Mechanics were immediately placed at work repairing the building, and the restaurant is expected to be open again this evening. Miner, June 30.

Valuable Aikali Lands.
PneuiX Herald.

Mr. c. L. Phippeny is up from the Buckeye country to-day and informs the Herald that that portion of the county is prosperous with good crops of alfalfa and grain. An important piece of inform ation from Mir. Phippeny is that he has made a splendid success of alfalfa on alkah lands. He had some trouble in getting the seed to set well at first, but when it was once set the crops were more luxuriant on alkai lands than elsewhere, all of which goes to show that the salt lands" found here and there il the valley are as valuable as any land il properly handled, in certain crops.

Governor Wolfley recently received a protest from Isaac N. Town, chairman of the Live Stock Sanitary Board, on be- half of the cattlemen of southern Ari- zona. They met in Nogales on the 18th ut, and recited their grievance against Mexico, which has recently revived an old law. This exacts penalty of $3.5O for returning stray cattle to Arizona. About 1000 cattle had wandered into Mexico before the new ruling was announced. Heretofore they were permitted free re- turn. A threatened duty of BIO per head on Mexican stock is the pretended reason for the present injustice. Governor Wolf ley forwarded the remonstrance to Secre- tary of State Blaine, with a strong en dorsement in favor immediate action.- Herald.

Nearly Killed.

About forty Mexicans were on the main street of Solomonville last week engaged in the sport of pulling the rooster" This consists of burying rooster in the mid de of the street leaving his head and neck protruding from the ground, and the horsemen endeavoring to pull him from his temporary grave while riding by at full speed. 1t is very hard thing to do, as the rooster, who has no love for the sport, invariably dodges his head when a rider makes a swoop for his neck. Dur ing the performance two of the horsemen were riding at full speed towards each other, had collision, their horses coming together like battering ram, knocking both riders high in the air. One of the horses had a shoulder dislocated, and one of the men was badly injured by going against the horn of the saddle with terri ble force. The horn of the saddle was broken The man was in great agony for several hours. He was attended by Dr. Hoeffer and though badly bruised inter nally will probably recover. Such furi ous riding should not be permitted in the streets of Solomonville, and 1t is to be hoped that the proper officers will prevent 1t in the flture-Bulletin.

Serious Accident.
Star.


 c. Dennis, our next door neighbor. carpenter well known in this city, met with a serious accident on day before yes terday, which resulted in the fracture of the tibia of his left leg, just above the ankle. He was mailing some gilt mould ing at the residence of A. Hittinger and was standing at the time upon a seven foot ladder. The hinges of the braces gave away and he was preeipitated to the floor falling on the sharp edge of board, with the above result. MT. Dennis at first thought that the injury was not very seri- ous, but as he attempted to use the limb he found that one of the bones, the tibia, gave away and he could not bear any weight upon it. Thinking still that there was no serious injury done, he did not call a physician until yesterday, when upon examination it was found that the above named bone was badly broken. The physician called was Dr. Fenner, who, associated with Dr. Green. set and bandaged the limb, and admonished MT. Dennis not to attempt to use the same for one month. Last evening Mir Den his was resting comfortably and felt quite cheerful under the circumstances.

A Lucky Number Makes B1oated Bond
Holder of a Kalamazoo Man.

The streak of good luck that placed S., DOC
in cold cash in the hands of Cody Phillips OF
this city from the treasury of The Louisiana
State Lottery, has created considerable stir.
Mr.. Phillips held one-twentieth of ticket
No. A. 1914 that drew the second prize of
500, 900 in the drawing of March II. Mr..
Phillips is 26 years of age and member of
the firm of Richmond & Phillips, saloonists,
of this city. When questioned as to whether
he had ever tried his luck before he replied
that he had regularly invested a dollar each
month for the past three years and had
drawn three smaller prizes during this time
which had nearly covered his total invest
ments to date.
"Shall you retire from business, Mr. Phil
lipsH'
ooh, no; shall watch for good oppor-
tunity to invest this money, and keep trying
my luck until | strike another bundle.'

CHAPTER XXXIII.-THE DECREE OF FATE.

On his arrival in London Mountjov
went to the Nurses Institute to inquire
for Mrs. Vimpany.
She was again absent, in attendance on
another patient. The address of the house
(knOwn only to the matron) was, on this
occasion. not to be communicated to any
friend who might make inquiries. A bad
case of scarlet fever had been placed
under the nurses care. and the danger
of contagion was too serious to be trifed
with.
The events which had led to Mrs. Vimp-
any's present employment had not occur
red in the customary course.
A nurse who had recently joined the In
stitute had been first engaged to under
take the case at the express request of the
suffering person, who was said to be dis
family related to the young woman. On
the morning when she was about to pro-
coed to the scene of her labOrs news had
reached her of the dan gerouS illness of
her mother. Mrs. Vimpany, who was free
at the time, and who felt a friendly inter-

buest had been addressed to the matrOn
on behalf of the sick man. He desired to
be Uniformed of it, if the new nurse was
an irishwoman." Hearing that she was
an EnGl .Shwoman he at once accepted her
services: being himself (as an additional
element Of mystery in the matter) an Irish
mau!
The matron's English prejudices at once
assumed that there had been some dis
cteditable event in the mans life, which
might be made subject of scandalous
exposure if he was attended BIZ one of his
own country people. She advised Mrs
Vimpany to have nothing to do witt, the
afflicted stranger. The nurse answered
that she had promised to attend on him
and she kept her promise.

attempting to obtain Mrs. Vimpany's adj
dress. The one concession which the ma
tron offered to make was to direct his.

dows dumb creatures with instincts for
their preservation No matter how stupid

it always knows how to earn its living and
take care of itself and its young
The polar bear is taught by wonderful
instinct to shelter her young under the
snow. In December she retreats to the
side of rock, where, by dint of scraping
and letting the snow fall upon her, she
forms a cell In which to live during the
winter There is no fear that she should be
sti1ed for want Of air, for the warmth
of her breath always keeps a small passage
open.
Within this strange nursery she pro-
duces her young, and remains with them
beneath the snow till March, when she
comes out with her baby bears. As the
only use of the snow burrow is to shelter
the young, the male bears do not hiber-
nate like the females, but roam freely
about during the winter months.
Before retiring under the snow the bear
eats enormously, so that she becomes very
fat, thus laying in an internal store of food,
which enables her not only to support her
own wife, but to nourish her young dur
