ROCKY Momian Ncos.
The Southwestern Silver Miners con-
v%ention Will moet AZ Silver City, N. NJ,
on July 4 and Extensive preparations
arc making all over New Mexico, in
Northern Old Mexico aud IN Arizona to
render the occasion a large and euthusi.
astic demonstration.
II will be remembered that this con-
vention originated in III Paso, Texas,
which is the smelling and commercial
center Of the region named, and whero
a session is held every fall. At the last
meeting il was resolved to hold semi-au.
nual meetings, and Silver City, N. NJ,
was chosen. as the place for the mid
summer meeting. II is in the midst Of
a rich silver mining section, and is easily
reached over the Santa Fe and Southern
Pacific lines, which roads will make spe-
oial round trip rates for the delegates
and all attendants.
New Mexico is soon to become a state
and the influence OF this convention in
developing and %oontralizing a strong
free coinage sentiment cannot be over
estimated. The particular local scope
OF the convention includes a very large
and promising mining section on whose
prosperity depends the growth and de-
velopment OF the agricultural and other
resources with which the region abounds.
Colorado has always had an active and
influential delegation present at each of
these conventions, and should have the
same at the coming session. Our state
leads in the free coinage fight and it's
friendly interest in all methods to pro
mote the cause should at all times be
displayed. These Southwestern miners
will o o be voting for free coinage con.
gressmen and a free coinage president,
and the stronger their organization the
more influence il will bring to bear IN
favor Of restoring the white metal TO ite
proper place in the coinage Of all ma
tons.

The Bremen mill which was at work on
orc from the Mountain Key mine has
been closed down. A few men are at
work 10 the mine uhder leases.
Work is progressing rapidly on the
new mill being built in the Mogollons
by the Confidence Company. The tim
bers for the mill are being framed and
it Is expected that this part Of the work
will be completed by the time the ioun-
dalton lie completed 80 that the frame
can be put up at once. The mill will
be ready for work IN October il nothing
happens to delay The work.
The recent rams made an abundance
Of water in the mountains and there
will be no scarcity Of water for milling
purposes for some weeks to come even
il there should be 10 rain.
It is expected that the Manhattan
Gold Mining and Milling Company will
reach the vein on the property at Pinos
Altos within a month. The ground is
a little softer than it has been and the
contractors are making better progress
now than they we're a few months ago.
A little water has been struck in the
tunnel but there is not enough to supply
the mill. If sufficient water should be
found there the company would I'M
doubtedly move the mill from this place
to Pinos Altos.
The mining outlook at Cooks Peak Is
better now than it has been for several
mouths, Some fine bodies Of ore have
been exposed and the output Of the camp
this summer will be considerably larger
than it has been for some mouths.
There is considerable water in the
mountains o and miners are very
much encouraged at the outlook. II
looks now as though there would be
water enough TO keep the mills going and
there is some for placer mining. Up tc
two weeks ago most Of the mills in this
part Of the Territory were running on
half time and several we're closed down
altogether on account Of the scarcity Of
water.
The Western Liberal says that a new
strike has been made in the Viola mine
A sample OF the ore ran 521 ounces il
silver and an unc and a half in gold.
The No Hay NADIA mine at Central il
being opened and some very fine speci
mems Of ore are being taken out. The
VEIN is narrow but the ore is exception
ally rich and pays the owners we'll To-
working it.
The Brockman mill at Lone Mountain
has been closed down for some days il
order to make necessary repairs. i
has been doing satisfactory work anC
will be kept pounding away on the i'm
mense deposits Of ore on which it haI
been at work.
Another shipment Of bullion was mad'
yesterday from the Maud S. min,
through the Silver City National Bank
This mine is one of the largest shipperl
in this section.

Warm weather is approaching and by
the time the first OF July gets here there
will be hundreds Of people in southern
New Mexico looking for some cool re-
sort in the mountains 10 spend a few
days. The proper thing to do is to come
to the Silver Convention here on the 4th
Of July. There is no more delightful
place in New Mexico to spend a few
days in the heat Of the summer than
Silver City and the fact is pretty well
known throughout the Territory.

Fessler-Eekstine.

There was a wedding at the Office OF
Justice Of the Peace Givens on Monday
evening Of last week which was to have
been kept a secret for a year. George
Fessler and Teresa Eckstine have been
engaged for some time and it was report
ed last winter that they were married
but this report was premature. Last
Sunday they concluded to get married
and Mr.. Fessler intended to go to Cali
fornia soon to be gone about a year.
When he returned it was the intention
to make the wedding known. On Mon
day evening they. went to the Office of
Justice Givens with Robert Golden and
Felicita Watts as witnesses and were
married. After the wedding they went
to the party at the residence of Mayor
Fleming fully resolved to let no one
known about the wedding. They sue.
ceeded in keeping the secret for a few
days but it has all leaked out. Now it is
the intention of the young couple to re-
main here until after the close of the
term of school which Mrs. Fessler is
teaching in the Coleman district three
miles east of town when they will go to
California to reside. Since the wedding
became known they have been receiving
congratulations on every hand but the
boys don't like the way George fooled
