same in this respect. and only wait ing for those to come who have the ability to release it, assisted by the influence of its mineral. Whatever may be said of thIs favored section, what personal pride others may have in their devotion for the Hassa- yampa, the Bradshaws, the Santa Santa Maria or Cherry Creek, from the broad and liberal standpoint of equality and justice, Chaparral faces de6antly all for first honors. To back her up, the task of enumerat- ing her mines, or to be plaln, those properties which are termed but prospects, is like enumerating the sands of time. Enough ground is broken, however, to give encourage ment to the resident, as we'll as the loca .or, the advantages which it un- doubtedly possesses. From the dump of the Little Jessie there greets the eye a net work of mineral which is simply unreasonable to contemplate, proving beyond con tradiction it claim and its advant- ages. The old Ticonderoga lays at your feet in the west, the Dividend crawls closer to you. the lndepend- ence, the Union, the James G. Blaine, the Morning Star, the Little Jack, the Ella, the Little Grace, the Galena, the Vanderbilt and score of others, seemingly beckon to you to them. The outlook to face one IS an emphatic and encouraging argu
 ment for the camp, and convinces beyond doubt. Money talks, it is said, but in the life of the above, muscle supplants the power of that commodity. No district, then, can face this one, for it is the poor man for once who has made its mines yield, and not an instance IS recorded where assistance in any channel has come to favor him other than that of pure grit. To mention all the mines here, is simply out of the question, but the following will give somewhat of an idea of the progress made recently:
 The Dividend, owned by Mrs. Moeller and Judge Rush, is the first patented mine in HAyE- pal county. it was abandoned previous Co the s7O's and remained idle until year or so ago. It is an excellent property, developed thoroughly having shafts to depth Of IFS feet in one place, ll7 in another, and on and on, from 90 tO 70 feet at other points Tunnels. drifts, stopes and several hundred tons of ore arc On the dumps tO give evidence of the propertys yalue and it's ap- pearance.

THE BRADSHAws.

The key to the situation. That is, the belief prevails today with the same fervent fever it did de- cade ago, that here nature laid her foundation for a mineral empire. To this catacomb all ore bodies seem to run and from her do they appar- ently depart. The vast chain of mountains above, in short, seem to serve the purposes of mighty sen tinel, and as time wears away the mightiness of her secrets and gives to man a seeming verifcation of that so long and earnestly cherished, the scene grews more interesting day by day. In mining parlance this old and magnificent treasure vault
 has been carefully guarded in a jealous manner, and men cling to it to-day like they did in it's earliest period. It is an unfortunate scope, however, suffering by the fate of silver on one hand, and retarded on the other hand by that demanded from it in gold. The latter feature of its cares is being solved neverthe- less, and with the same candor it answered the white metal summnas, so does it gracefully bow to~tfe yell low metal. To go down IS the cry here as elsewhere, and with such tidings to greet her from across other ranges. the old landmark falls into active life. While from the Bradshaws a dozen recognized dis tricts may be seen, they are virtually one, and belong in sentiment and

CHAPARRAL.


 CHAPARRAL.
 The nearest approach the present has to chronicle in its relations with the by gone days in genuine activity and a prosperous outlook, is con tained in reference to the above. To comprehend its magnificent future in one breath, and then, in the next, to turn back to but four short years ago, and see absolutely nothing in the form of that to greet the eye to- day, seems like drawing wild and fanciful picture of the scene. A country completely regenerated, the old turned over to the new, and back of it all, a future that glitters in it's prosperity, the wild elation men are capable of heralding in the strides of mines and mining. or Chaparral what must be said. To her and her riches, so suddenly and richly un- covered, Yavapai owes a debt that the generosity of the present will never truthfully grasp. nor for that matter, can men, in their haste and Tn their ambition, be expected to recall in rigntful devotion. To bring back to view the gloomy pict- ure of few years ago lowering over every camp around us, seems unjust and indeicate, but with the break ing of the silence in the strikes of Chaparral, every man, in every dis trict, was up in arms, as it were From the riches of the Little Jessie. there has followed not only pros perity to everyone around her, but to the distant, as we'll are the echoes from this mineral wonder taken up and across every range. Of this district to-day, language is simply inadequate to extol its charms or enlighten its wonders. It came about with only that determination muscle and energy know and to such elements is it known today, The men who are at its side now, were here when the first shot was fired, and throughout its domain they are still clinging to it's treasure. In brief, it has been a poor mans district from the grass roots down, for the men first to venture to it, and ardently grasp her opportuni- ties, were also poor. It IS yet the

In other words, a mining district supposed to be played out, but one just over the hill from Prescott. that in realty is clothed with new suit, and talk ing the trouble to show itself of at that. What a history this pioneer of the pioneers has, and who is there who will not in this era tie to her again just as they did way back in the eos. However true it may be that for long time it slumbered so silently, the fact is presented in its defense to-day, that new life and new ideas are at hand. In the past this district has been harassed just the same az others have, only to be resurreeted by knowledge that it's resources were merited, and that time and experience are the bene- factors in this instance. When it costs S65 to introduce materials to handle S35 worth of ore, with every thing else attached to mining meas ured likewise where is the mine or locality that IS generous enough to exist under such a strain. Lynx Creek tried it, and for a decade paid the bill in idleness and desolation along with others on the same prin- ciple. Seized with new life and run on bed rock business principles, she faces the future boldly and defiantly with unmistakable frmness. Her mines are going down, and back of them there is energy and intelli- gence as the motive power. Two 10-stamp mills are echoing night and day it's glad tidings, with an other one coming. "Grass root" mining is played out, and surface indications go for nothing. It is a question of depth, and in every in stance so far, old ground, with new ideas, is talking. There is a stir along the old creek, in short, and every boulder is carefully guarded with location notice. There is no "boom," however, but feeling of security among ali.

The lectures on Literature" by Dr Burton will be given on the following Fri day afternoons, namely: January 25, Feb ruary l, February Is, February 22, March l, March 8.
 The lectures by Professor Rice on Evolution" and Geology" will be given on the following Monday evenings, name ly: February II, February 25, March II, March 25, April s, April l5.
 This arrangement provides a lecture for nearly every Monday evening and nearly every Friday afternoon until the courses are finished. There may be two or more supplementary lectures on "Physiology'' by Professor Anderson of Yale University and on Botany" by Professor Conn of Wesleyan University.
 The price of ticket admitting one per- son to all the lectures of the season is $3. The price of a ticket for any single couIse of SIX lectures is $1 50 Admission to any single lecture is thirty five cents. Tickets can be obtained of Mir H. F. Bassett at the Bronson library.
