A1suuuraour Fam NOTES.

The premium list of the fair will
be issued in few days.
A good ore display at the coming
fair can not fail to be of incalculable
advantage to the district that makes
it.
The sheepmen of Flagstaff have
empowered their president, II. d.
Ross, to appoint three delegates to
the wool convention.
Mr.. Perry Gall has been appointed
vice president for San Marcial. This
gentleman is taking a lively interest
in the fair, and especially in the
poultry display.
A tug of war team from Gallup is
to be heard from. They are wanted
here to drill at the fair against
others. There is muscle in Gallup
and they will make it count in a
team.
President G. L. Brooks has APP
pointed Mrs. J. G. Albright as super
intendent of the art department of
the fair. This is a very good ap-
polntment and Mrs. Albright will
give the necessary attention to bring
out good display.
Judge w. G. Blakely, the Worlds
fair commissioner for Mohave coun-
ty, Arizona, will get up magnificent
exhibition Of ores. Judge Blakely
is prosecuting attorney for his coun-
ty, and the mineral display could not
be in better hands.
G. O'Connor Roberts, superinten.
dent of the mineral department, is
receiving number of letters daily
from New Mexico, Arizona and Col
orado camps with reference to ore
exhibits. The mineral display prom
ises to be very credltable one this
year.-Citizen.

TEMEscA1 TIN MINES.

The Los Angeles Evening Express
has interviewed Geryaise Purcell, a
civil engineer and financial agent of
the Temescal TIN mines, in relation
to the statement that the mines are
exhausted and failure. He emphat-
ically declares that so far from being
exhausted the mines are in the in
fancy of development; there are $50
men at work, and new machinery has
just been ordered. Shipments of tin
ore are made by carloads, and the
output Of the mines in June was
double that of May.
Purcell says the company owns a
tract embracing many thousands of
acres, in which large number of tin
bearing leads have been traced for
long distances on the surface. What
those yet unopened are is problem
atical, but judging by the results of
explorations and developments al
ready made, the mines being worked
may be regarded as practically mex
haustible. The ore is twice as rich
as some of the best mines of Corn
wall, and the veins worked are wild
ening as depth is gained. They have
every indication of being Of true
fissure character, and Purcell says he
has no doubt of their prominence.

Many persons do not know that
the water used in street sprinkling is
donated by the Aqua Pura company,
the only requirement being that the
city shall repair any hYdrapt that
shall be damaged by being used for
taking water from for that purpose.
1t is to be hoped that any action
against the decision of the secretary
of the interior in relation to the Las
Vegas grant will be started at once.
As we understand the case, nothing
now remains except TO carry suit
through the courts to, question the
justness of the secretary's action.

DIR. Emmert @. Chapman, of
Ration, was Monday appointed by
Gov. Prince to be a member of the
insane asylum board of trustees, in
place of Russell Marcy. DR.. Chap
man is partner of DIR. J. J. Shuler,
of Ration, in the practice of medicine
and is the resident physician there
for the A., r. & S. f. railroad and
coal companies.
The FREE PRESS takes pleasure in
making mention of valuable and
scientific work which is being intro
duced in the place, entitled "Ladies'
Guide" written by the celebrated
DR.. J. II. Kellogg. The work takes
up the different phases of woman's
life from infancy to old age, giving
the woman of this present generation
a thorough understanding of her own
body from a plain standpoint, yet
in a chaste and delicate manner. No
one should let the opportunity pass
of examining the work.
A petion to the council was being
circulated today asking them to put
in nine new fire plugs, for which the
council is to pay 500 each per year,
the contract to run till 1896, and the
Aqua Pura company is to relay the
main from the First National bank
to the Episcopal church with an
eight-inch main, and put in six-inch
main on Interocean and another to
Sixth and Douglas avenue, there to
reunite and join into an eight-inch
again; besides taking up several
smaller mains in different parts of
town and relaying them with larger
pipes. If this is done, the town will
have little cause of complaint and
the water pressure will once more be
good. If the proposition is accepted
the company will start work at the
earliest minute.

STAND by THE srRIKERs.

PlTTsBURG, July 1s.-The most
important move of the day In the
Beaver Falls strike was the action of
the machinists, repairmen, yard
brakemen and laborers in deciding
to stand by the strikers. This action
was the result of meeting held yes
terdaY, and was surprise to the
Carnegie officials. All the men in
the departments mentioned have
been working every day, and when
they quit for the week last Saturday
there was no intimation of their in
tention to join the strikers today.
The news was received at the head
quarters of the strikers with intense
satisfaction, and the leaders were in
a hopeful mood.
H1LLsBoRo, N. NJ, July 1s.-The
largest advance step ever made by
Hillsboro has just been taken, and
its prosperity is now assured, along
with the probability ofa boom. The
Hillsboro copper matte furnace start
ed up this morning and is running
smoothly, turning out rich bullion.
Our little, city is celebrating the
event tonight, and there is general
rejoicing. The successful operation
of this furnace means a great deal
for this camp, because it furnishes a
market for a large and increasing
class of ores which we have not here
tofore been able to treat with the
best success. Our people are very
hopeful about the future of the camp,
and you may look out for the biggest
mining boom in New Mexico at this
point.-Democrat.

That Railroad Question.

Editors Of tse Heaaebec ,joHraai:
Your daily of last Friday contained an
editorial concerning the proposed railroad
trust for the purpose of establishing rates
at the old figures" dnring the Worlds
Fair. While the public must be heartily
in accord with the spirit Of your protest. a
few points deserve a second thought.
Yoa say that if reductions of fare are
denied. '.the public will feel that
the railroads have taken advantage of a
great national occasion to pursue an I'M
preceslented and unjustiiable course of ex-
torticu.~ Now. what is the reasea that
the public would resent it; No individual
would have to pay the railroads cent more
than he does now. Moreover, If he attends
the Worlds Fair, no is naturally supposed
to receive more for his money. So far as
the individual and his poeketbock are
concerned. he wenli be better off Eexf year
