Many arc III" stories told of old
Father Ncalo of Virginia, the Bap-
ust preacher. He was by trade a
carl enter, and Before he msook
that business to become Al minister
was head carpenter to General
Washington.
Father Nralr'h only book was the
bible, and when he found young
preacher using II concordance to
help hm find texts he said:
"l"u had better let that alone.
1t will do you more harm than
good. 1t viii make you lazy"
But how can ! do without ii -
asked tn" young preacher.
"Why, d" as do, replied Father
Ncalc. "Study the Bible till YOU
know it by heart"
One" he heard il minister say that
the people could not have been i'm
mcrscd i'll the Jordan because that
river was SO small that man could
almost dam ii up with his foot.
That was too much for Father Ncalc.
Il don't pretend To have any
great l"arninG said he. with a
twinkle III his eye, but If | don I
read books of travel, there's one
book | do read, and that = the Bible.
Now our brother here says the Jur-
dan Is SO small that you may stop
II with your foot. His books may
tell him SO, but my book tells me
that David, when he was flying
from Absalom and wanted to cross
that same river Jordan, had to hire

WELL PLEASED.
The Gold Cliff Rapidly Devel-
 oping Into a Bonanza.

w. H. Wren and K. H. Knight, the Los Angeles capitalists who came down to inspect the property at Pearoe in which they are heavily interested-the Gold Cliff mine-and who went out to the mine Thurs day, returned last even ing highly elated with the good showing that has been made by Superintendent Johnson.
 The main shaft is now down II5 feet and the face of the ledge at tha, depth is 48 feet mide, actual measurement, as shown by a crosscut, and the hanging wall is not ye, found. Sinking is being pushed as rapidly as possible until the 200 level is readhed when another drift will be made.
 Shaft No. has been started 200 feet from the first shaft on the ledge and good quality of shipping ore has been encountered, the sacking of which will he commenced next week.
 The Gold Cliff is fast developing into property of vast proportions and the richness of the ore, which has been of fair quality from the surface, is and has been improving as depth is attained while the quantity appears to be almost limit less. placing this property on the same footing as the great Pearce mines which have been the wonder of mining men since their discovery.
 The good judgement of Superintendent Johnson as successful mining man is very gratifying to the management, the developments proving him to bethe equal of any man in his line of business.
 And so a new star is about to be added 10 the constellation of Cochise county's wealth Producers, and we predict that the Turquois mining district, in which these properties are located, will soon become the equal of the Comstock in its palmy days as the producer of precions metals.
