 Armand" came an anxious voice from the adjoining room, "are you troubled? You have been talking to yourself for a whole hour You are not iIl?'
 No, no, my dear" he replied, going 10 the door, do not worry. IT am working"

Baby-is asleep Good night-dear," snd the loving wife resumed her inter- rupted dream.
 At the other end of the room, safely tucked in his little crib, smiliIg and peaceful, with his little hands tightly elasped, little Georget slept.
 A sudden torrent of tears burst from Armand's eyes and wet his cheeks. He rushed into his studio, seized a sheet of paper and wrote.
 The next morning at 10:30 man ir- reproachably attired in black stood on the field at Vezinet and with an agitated air held out letter to another person age, equally anxious and no less solemn.
 "Is it possible:" said the first.
 "What, Q message?" said the second.
 "The unfortunate man forgets that he dishonors himself" said one.
 And that his cowardice might reflect on us, replied the other.
 "But that shall not happen" said both together.
 And with grave air and measured iteps the two men advanced toward a nnall group who were viewing the unu, yual proceedings with surprise.
 "Gentlemen," said one of the pair, speaking composedly in the midst of @ general silence, i've regret to announce that our principal and former friend, M Armand Fougeret, will not be on the field today He will not fight.

T. l.. Smith, H. w. Hitchcock and S. A. Tyler have taken lease and bond on the Black & Tan mine, From T. l.. Ayers They will do considerable development work and put up whim. They will do work enough during the next three months to find out whether there is anything in 1t or not.
 P. Benson will put force of men at work on the Harrison mine, at Chloride, next week
 Pere Caffrey and Jos. Labaree had ten tons of ore from the Night Hawk dump worked at the sampling works this week.

 John Bricl1le, Tex" who has lease on the Cupel dump, had car load of ore worked this week with such satisfactory results that he will continue sorting the dump.
 r. H. Thompkins brought iu about 1000 pounds of ore from the Gunsite, in Cedar Valley district, Wednesday. The ore Is of the same character as came from this mine several years ago, and IS very rich.
 J.W Mum had lot of ore from the Music Mountain run through the sampler which, while not of as high grade as us- ually comes from that district, was satis- factory to the shipper. The mines in this district are doing fairly well this year, with every prospect of improvement.

stock F. aising.
Phenix Gazette.

The Salt river valley is, however, well adapted to stock-raising. The thermome- ter rarely sinks to the freezing point. and here are none of the disastrous northers, which play havoc with the cattle of the western states and territories. Stock can graze ill the open fields the year round and no expensive housing or winter feed are required. Moreover as the system of the animal is not called upon to endure the rigors of a cold climate for a good third of year, it stands to reason that it more readily lay on flesh. Animals, here, like our evergreen trees, plants and flow CTS, keep on growing all the year round. noted eastern breeder, who had investi- gated this country thoroughly, declared that he believed cattle and horses would put on 20 per cent more weight Ill given period of their growth, and with a given quantity of feed than they would in the east. Quick growth means large growth and early development.

The Anaconda Mine.

Ore of the greatest copper mines of the world, Is the Anaconda mine. Butte, Montana and from correspondence of the Mining and Scientific press is glean- ed the following statements:
 The celebrated copper mine was locat- ed by Hickey Bros. in 1876, afterwards Marcus Daily acquired one-third inter est, and did some development work. and in 1880, bonded two-thirds interest for S10000
 The mine at first was considered a sill yer prospect, and even after the Anaconda company was formed, and the mines opened up to a considerable depth, dry crushing silver mill was ordered, but be- fore it was put in place, the sinking run into copper ore and they abandoned the silver idea.
 Then large three compartment shaft was sunk, levels run. etc. Shortly after wards at Warm Springs, a distance of P miles, monster plant with capacity of l,2OO tons daily, was put up from the enormous ore bodies. The company soon increased the plant sufficient to work B. 900 tons daily.
 The immense new smelter was about finished, when fire took place destroy ing the entire works, but larger and better smelter, fire proof, has been built in it's stead and is now in running order The shipments from the works last year amounted to 5000 tons of copper, and the amount of silver is estimated at 100000 ounces.
 The company have expended in devel- oping and purchasing mines, and in this plant, since November 1880, to Jan. 1st 1890, over S24,0000O0.
 The immensity of these great works can be imagined when the fact is consi- dered that they use 75,O00 tons of coal and as many cords of wood, and l5,0OO,- 900 feet of lumber in year. The rail road alone receives from the Anaconda mine $l 100000 for freight.
 There are many years work of ore in sight.
 The lead on the 1000 foot level Is 2l sets of timber wide, all of which is mined and sent to the works. There are 300C men in the employ of the company in the mines and works. This gigantic enter prise is managed by Marcus Daily, who came into Butte with the second emigTa ton, or owing to the quartz excitement.

Statehood.
Eddy ArguS.

The writer lived in Colorado in 1876 when the question of statehood was voted upon, and he heard the same objections that he IS now hearing in New Mexico. The opponents of statehood declared that if the question carried taxes would be increased without any beneficial re- suits. They declared that the agitation for statehood was inaugurated and car ried on by a few interruptions politicians who desired office. They averred that people would leave the state by the hun dreds, and that immigration would cease to flow in. They also pretended to be- Eeve that the people were not sufficiently educated for self government. But they were mistaken in everything. Since its admission to the union Colorado has had q phenomenal growth Perhaps not one of the men who opposed statehood in 1876 is sorry the territory was admitted when it was. In 1875 Colorado was on its last legs, so to speak. As soon as she became a state she has been progressing ever since. The people of the state can thank stathood for many things If for nothing else, they can thank 1t for giving them Senator Teller, the statesman who fought so vahantly and successfully against Powell's law of October 2, 1888.

Land Office Decisions Affirmed.


 A Washington dispatch to the Globe Democrat of September 24 says Assist ant Secretary Chandler, of the Interior department, to-day affirmed the decision of the general land office in the cases of Cora A. Damon, Emily Damon, Horace G. Damon, David Damon, Nelson l.. Damon, Mary Damon, Siegfried Simon, Laura J. Moseley. Josiah B. Moseley, Henry E. Murphy, Aletha A.

In affirming the action of the general land office, the Assistant secre tary says:

Not Reliable.
Tucson Citizen.

It is a matter of great difficulty for the courts of this city to obtain Chinese in terpreters in the many cases with that nationality which come up. Not but what there are plenty of Chinese in the city who talk good English. but there is al ways strong reluctance among them to do interpreting work, said to be due in part to not uncommendable love of their fellow countrymen, but more to fear of powerful secret organizations to which they belong. When they do consent tc interpret they lie fearfully, telling the court just whatever pleases their sweet will, and in order to help their case Such case came off yesterday in Judge Meyers court, the court being informed of it by reliable Chinese witness this morning.
