Some Interesting DOln6S in ihs Various
 DiStfiCS Surrounding This City.

 From NsE Discoveries.

Hon. Nick Gales started up his mill at Santa Maria few days ago.
 F.. B. Hoes has deeded a num- Der of mining claims to the Treas ure Mountain Mining company. The claims are located between the Last Chance mine and Granite mountain.
 Isaac T. Stoddard's Lottie mine on Big Bug is developing into quite a good property. A body of ore nearly two feet wide was recently struck in a winze. The ore goes about S20 a ton and about 20 per cent copper.
 A gentleman connected with the Little Annie mine on Big Bug re quests the JouKSAL-MNER to state that its informant who recently re- ported that they had struck $40 ore in that mine was mistaken. He sayt that they have no such good luck to report.
 The sale ofthe Silver Flake mine, six miles south of town, was com pleted yesterday by the payment of the balance of the purchase price by Messrs. Msckin and Philbin. The deed for the transfer of the property was filed yesterday. the considera- ton named in it being SSS,6OO.
 Machinery for the Planet-Ssturn company has commenced to arrive At Fools gulch. They have con tracted for the transportation ot D0,0OO pounds of machinery, in ad- dition to a large amount of brick and lumber. This camp is forging ahead in great shape, under the SUI pervision of W. A. Clark, it's efficient superintendent.
 Since commencing work on the Gold Note and Surprise mines, D. B. Gillett has had 1895 feet of de- velopment work done on the two claims, in sinking and drifting. All the work is 6ix4 feet in the clear. In addition to this development work in the mines, considerable work in the way of improvements has been done on the outside. Both properties are looking we'll.
 Frank Wilson, of this city, but who was mining in the vicinity of Prescott. Arizona, the past year, is again in the New Mexico metropolis. It is learned, although Mir. Wilson it reticent on the subject, that he has a mine worth millions located within few miles of Prescott, and that he has just refused an offer of $l0, 900 for it.-AlbuQuerQue Citizen. There IS nothing very remarkable about 6 man refusing a $l0,000 offer for a mine worth millions.
 E. R. Hotsenpillsr continues de- velopment work on his Cornucopia mine ou Cherry creek, and the mine continues to look well. While he is taking out 8 large amount of good shipping ore, he is allowing it to remain on the dump instead of shipping it, and he has between 300 and 400 tons of good ore now on the dump. The ore carries gold, silver and copper. All the ore taken out has been taken from doing de- velopment work alone, no stoping having been done whatever. Good ore bodies are being constantly en- countered in the mine as develop ment progresses.

Only thirty-two days till the cleo tion of Wm. Mckinley as president of the United States.
 An exchange says that "the only part of Bryan that belongs to the 'toiling masses is his mouth" In this he is not unlike Want Office O'Neill, alias "Bucky."
 Somebody ought to try to arrange joint debate between Henry Wat terson and Tom Watson. It would be necessary to have it either out of doors or in fire proof building.
 The election of O'Neill as dele gate to congress would retsrd Ari- zOna's growth ten years. The men who are shouting the loudest for him would be the worst sufferers.
 A gentleman who has just return ed to Phenix from the east, says that Mckinley is sure to carry Hi nois by large majority, and that Altgeld will be showed under by a majority of 75,0OO
 Republicans of Msricopa county will open the campaign at Phenix tomorrow, Thursday night, October l. The party is we'll organized in that county, and are confident. of carrying their ticket from delegate down to precinct officers.
 The "boy orator" is up on all the free advertising dodges. When he attended services in a Washington church he asked to be seated in the Lincoln pew, which remains just as it was when President Lincoln used to sit in it.
 Leaving Missouri, Tennessee, Kansas, Nebraska, North Dakota and Wyoming, all of which will probably go republican, in the doubtful column, Representative Grosvenor, of Ohio, figures out PTS electoral votes for Mckinley and Hobart.
 The territorial republican central committee is hard at work and has already secured the services of a number of prominent speakers, who will at once take the stump for the ticket in this. territory. Among those speakers who have volun- teered 10 speak for the ticket are e1- Gov. J. J. Gosper, Col. c. c. Bean and T. w. Johnston, of Yavspai

A DEMOCRATIC FORGERY.

Ever since last spring an article has been going the rounds of the democratic press of the United States, credited tO the London Fiji nancial News, which Purported tO give the views of that paper on the financial question in the United States The article appeared first in an Omaha paper, of which Mir. Bryan was editor. It was kept standing in that paper for several months, and in the meantime was quoted and copied by democratic papers all over the United States. In it's issue of August l3, the London Financial News denied the authen- ticity of the article. Despite this denial, the article was kept on it's rounds, snd to day a marked copy of the Financial News of Septem- Der l4 was received at this office containing the following notice of the original spurious article:
 "In our issue of August l3 We took occasion To refer to the circula- tiou m the American newspapers of an article entitled, "The Grip of Gold purporting Co be an extract from the Financial News of March 10, lS96, and We stated that no such article has ever appeared in this journal. As certain American papers continue to reprint this article, crediting 1t to the Financial News, We have again to warn our readers and our American contemporaries that 1t IS 8 forgery, and it's whole tenor IS entirely opposed to the view we have always taken of the effect of free silver legislation in the United States

Sam Jones, the Georgia evangel- lst, says he's a democrat, and then he fires this broadside at the demo cratic election officials: "I no more believe that we will have a fair cleo ton in Georgia on the 7th of Octo- Der than I believe that every bum and thug and pspsucker in tho state is a gentleman, a scholar and a Christian"

and the ingenious will strive to provide
means Of protection.
It can not be too clearly stated that
these terrific atmospheric disturbances
nearly always move from west to east or
southwest TO northeast, and that persons
endeavoring to escape from their line of
progression should, as a rule, flee toward
the northwest or southeast. In paper
recently prepared by Prof. II. A. Hszen
Of this Office, the statement is made
that
$50 far as known no one has ever lost
his life when in the ordinary cellar of a
house, and this may be regarded as ample
protection. In many parts of the West
go great is the dread Of tornado that
timid person sometimes spend a half
day at time in a tornado cave when
the sky has greenish or peculiarly
threatening appearance in the west. AS
q matter of fact, the genuine tornado
always makes it's presence known by an
unmistakable and indescribable roar.
Some have heard this roar q half hour
before the storm struck, and the cases
are rare where it has not been heard
fifteen minutes before. This single fact
should serve to allay the fears caused
by ominous clouds on a hot summer
afternoon"
In the sections where tornadoes are
frequent the annual loss due to them is
only about one-fourteenth that caused
by fire.-RepOrt Of the chief Of the

b the number Of true tornadoes:
n ............9,ASS 1922

We generally have an idea that when
one OF these tOrnadoes is reported it
shows widespread destruction, but in
reality a tOrnadO's path is long and very
narrow. The total area OF destruction
BY the largest single tornado has never
exceeded ten square miles, The chance
that any township six miles square will
Be visited by a tornado within century
Ia not One-hRlf Of per cent.
An examination Of reports also shows
that the number Of deaths by lightning
almost equals that by tornadoes.
Il Ia not at all probable that the num-
Dor Of tOrnadoes is on the increase in
thla country, but as the number of towns
and their inhabitants increase in the
tornado regions, a dread Of their
vlsibatiop must corespondingly increase,
