A BOOM MINING.

The Santa Fe New Merican thinks that if substantial signs indicate any thing the long expected mining boom seems in a fair way to materialize this year.
 Certainly wonderful start has been made in Colorado, and the mad rush of people into the several new districts that have been opened of late shows that the idea that this is year of great strikes and marked actively in mining matters is firmly established in the public mind.
 It is singular fact, but amply sup ported by historic occurrences, that the mining fever comes in streaks, as it were. The old prospector talks about this matter as if it were too well estab- lished to be questioned by any reason able man. The excitement prevalent in southern Colorado at present shows that majority of the people who know anything about mines or have anything to do with mining camps possess the same idea. Somebody has advanced the idea that when the people once make up their minds to have boom the boom never fails to follow; it seems that there is always to be found the crude material to work upon when ever the mssses have taken it into their heads to inaugurate the boom. Another singular feature about it all is that such rich mineral is so often found in dis tricts long previously prospected over and abandoned as worthless.
 This is the record of almost every camp. Six years ago good prospectors tramped all over the present site of Creede, sunk few holes and aban- doned the place, yet today the rock there is mineralized in places from the grass roots down. The Lincoln-Lucky mine at San Pedro has been relocated and abandoned dozen times or more. At white Oaks is the same. Near Hack berry, the other day, in camp that has been thoroughly prospected for ten years quartz ledge sixty feet in width and carrying free gold clean across it's breast at the rate of Sl00 ton was opened, and yet Kansas City men had wasted thousands of dollars in trying to mill the low grade ores whereabouts. These things almost lead one to wonder if the precious metals do not grow, for how else could prospe ctors be SO com pletely fooled in their first search for the pay.
 The recent phenomenal discoveries have certainly given the prospectors fresh heart, and capital also is willing now to again venture. This is all that has for years been lacking to produce a boom, and since these elements are now supplied with greater vigor than ever, the year 1892 bears every promise of proving memorable one in the min ing industry.

ARID LAND GRABBING.

Senator Power of Montana, has been sick for some time, but he has not taken back a word of his statements about the corporate job which he claims lies behind the project of ceding arid lands to the respective states. He re- i,erates his charges and invites inves- tigation. His remark about the proba- biiity of the railroads owning 1000, eco acres of arid lands in Montana, and par ties eager to own the remaining 40 ,OO0,- 900 pooling their issnes to elect State government in sympathy with their designs, is at least highly suggestive of what might be done. It is also fact

A BOOM FOR YUMA.

Yuma is not sleeping by any means, and while other towns of Arizona are coming to the front, Yuma is keeping up with the procession. The Yuma
 Sentinel says:
 Mr. A. B. Stone of New York, presi- dent of the Cocopah sulphur company, is in the city of Mexico, arranging with the government for the purpose of work ing the great sulphur deposits in the Cocopah mountains at an early day. Mir. Stone intended to visit Yuma and the mines before he went to Mexico but the illness of Col. Allen on whom he was depending to show him the mines and tEe lower country generally, de- layed him until he was obliged to put off his visit here until a later date. Tho development of the Sulphur mines involves the expenditure of large sums of money and will help to open up and settle the country below the boundary line, all of which is portion of iuma's back country.

THE BROWN WILL CONTEST.
Opening Address in Behalf of Allie,
 Hayden.


 Hayden.
 GRAND RAPIDS, Mich, Feb. 22.-In the Brown will contest today, after tn, will had been admitted as evidence, NJ J. Smiley made the opening address ir behalf of Contestant Alice Hayden He briefly stated the life of the testator and described the relations of the two daughters and their parents.
 Brown married his wife in 1850, and seemed to have every confidence in her but after visiting Mrs. Haines in 1SS( he became morose in his conduct toward her. Before her death he was so bitter that he refused to go to her room. Mr. Smiley said that Margaret was respon. sible for this, that she deliberately blackened her mothers character and defamed her sister to influence him to leave his property to her, and he said ample testimony would be introduced to prove it beyond doubt. The opening address occupied four hours.
 The only witness put on was Marsa- ret Cook, an old friend of the family, who related that from 1859 to 1880 Browns family relations were most harmonious, and that she then began to notice him grow cross and irritable toward his wife.
 The trial will last two or three weeks and IS attracting much attention. the courtroom being filled to overflow ing.

HEDGEPETH IS ANOTHER instance of the undesirability of combining human sympathies with crime. It is a combi- nation that is always disastrous. If Hedgepeth had been coldhearted, re- morseless villain he would not have en- dangered his liberty to provide means for his wife's defense. As very few men are criminal all through and all around, but have tender spot some- where or other, very few men whe com init crime escape detection unless the crime be so petty as to cause little in- quiry or search.

William 1T. Mears, a Midland Engineer,
 Expires in LeadviiIc.
 LEAvmLE, Colo, Feb. 22.-William T. MearS, an engineer on the western divi- sion of the Colorado Midland road, dropped dead this evening at about 8 80 on the corner of Third and Harrison avenue. Mears, whose run was from this city to Aspen Junction, arrived here at 3 30 this afternoon, apparently in the best oi health.
 This evening, m company with a couple of friends, he started for stroll down the avenue. In front of the Times saloon he threw up his hands suddenly, uttered smothered eX- clamation, and fell into stairway. When picked up he was dead.
 Deceased was S5 years of age. His relatives live in Chicago. Since his death it has been ascertained that he had paralytic stroke year ago, and was very apprehensive about another, and it seems his fears were we'll founded. The body was taken to the undertaking rooms of Coroner Nelson.

TO KILL CuILTs PRESIDENT.
Lvidence of Plots Against Montt and
 Gen. Canto.

VALPARAISO, Feb. 22.-plots to kill President Montt and General Canto have been discovered and thwarted. The attempt on President Montt's life took place last Sunday night. The con- spirators tore up the railway track near Maule station, with the intention of wrecking the train in which Montt was travelling. Montt changed his mind and stopped off at Chalan, and the removal of the rails was discovered before any damage was done. When the Santiago express for this city arrived at Llailli, General Canto left his seat in the Pull man car to take his breakfast. Upon returning he found that his seat had matches were discovered near by.
