There has lust arrived in Phoenix a
most remarkable Cochise county gold
discovery story. The name of the lucky
dscoverer is Juan Garlic. He is Il
trmer in the southern part of the
county, very near the Mexican line,
and he has the most unique and valu-
a.bla salt lick il this world. Heretofore
Carrilo's chief INDUSTRY has been that
OF raising cattle for the eastern mark
cts. Recently ne set apart number
Of steers to be fattened for domestic
use, ana few days ago he killed one
for immediate cunSumpt on of himself
and neignbOrs After cutting the meat
and dividing it among his ghbors,
Carril!o had the stomach pref AIRED for
tripe in the usual manner. Upon sub
mitting this organ to the customary
process of cleaning he found its entire
lining filed with some hard substance
tina. was imbedded in the spOngy folds
wherein the gastric juices original =.
A closer examination showed that this
substance was nothing less than free
gold. and with careful saving and
washing it it is said that he procured
nearly 4 ounces of the precious metal
from that one ; Omach.
Carrillo and his neighbOrs were i'm
mensely astonishei at the big tiDd, and
set to work to discover theory that
would account for the presence of the
gold in the steers stomach. 1t was
learned that the animal had been pas
turing in the salt-lIck fields, a rather
large, rather saline deposit on the Car
ri 10 ranch. 1t has been known for
many years that almost the entire re-
gion abounded in gold placers, but the
shiuiug particles are of such degree
of fineness as to defy either the sluice
or the rOcller, and the p!acers could
never be protitably worked. a careful
inspection of the salt-lick under Il
strong glass disclosed good >"color,'
but of exceeding Gneness. 1t appears
that the steer hal licked up more than
ounces OF free gold in less than two
months. The salt in the earth had
chlorOdized the meta, and the lining
of the stomach had served in the man
ner of the coarse blanket at the bot
tom of the s!uice in preserving the
gold.
Carrillo Immediately slaughtered
some sheep that had been feeding in
the same pasture, and with results
equal y as satisfactory, only that the
amount of gold was somewhat smaller
He believes that he as struck a rich
thing, and means to keep a bunch of
cattle always feeding in that pasture.
II each Ger killed will yield I ounces
OF gold, or even a little less, there will
soon be started one of the greatest
slaughter houses in the world on the
Mexican and Arizona line

'TnnnnIin1 Pixies Peak.

Two gangs of wOrkmen have just
begun digging in Colorado the longest
tunnel which man ever attempted to
construct. The main bore will be
twenty miles long. and connected with
this are subsidiary tunnels. with Il
total length of thirty miles. So, in
reality, the task that has been put
under way is tina. of digging fif y IN les
OF tunnels, and every foot of this vast
system will be under Pixies Peak and
the mountains that tower on each side.
Two gangs of men, a. stated. are work
ing on the tunr el, one at ich end. Just
at present they are making progress at
the rate OF thirty feet a day. 1t Is
believed that the mammoth task they
have undertaken will be completed in
seven years from the first OF the present
month. The average depth of the
tunnel from surface will be 20. 500 feet
and il is designed TO test the mineral
deposits of the territory at these great
depths. 1t is estimated by the contrac-
tors that the average cost per foot OF
excavation will be $50 This make
the total proba BILE expense of digging
the tunnel and its subsidiary branc nes
$40 800, 900,

Blew I'D a Dam

Marshal Mead yesterday received g.
dispatch from Tom bstone which said,
bill Green killed Jim Burnett here
today There were no further partic-
ulars, but it is believed at the mar
shal's Office that another death led
to the tragedy of today. Aboui week
or so ago a dam on the San Pedro, own
ed by Mr.. Green, was blown cut. 1t 50
happened that little daughter of M.
Green's was playing in the river be-
low, with companion from Bi=bee,
and in the rush of water which follow
ed the blowing up of a dam, both
children were d. owned. Green offered
a reward of one Thousand dollars for in
formation that would lead 10 the djscOv-
cred of the party who had blown up
his dam, and thus brought death in his
family This is believed to be the
cause of today killing. Burnett bore
d bad reputation, and is said TO have
killed several men. Mr.. Green owns
fine home on the San Pedro and is
highly respected by all who know him.

Senator Turney.

The Austin corr espOndent for the
Express has the following to say about
Hon. w. w. Tnrney: "While living in
the far west, yet Senator Turney of Ell
Paso can be called Southwest Texas
senator, for he once made his home
there and regards the interests of the
West and Southwest as identical. In
fact every question which involved
the Southwest was given his closest
attention and he was as much a friend
to that section as he was to his own.
With him, to legisla-e for the South
west meant to legislate for the Wes5.
and being a man of splendid ability
and broad, substantial views in which
there was no 'shriveled localism,' he
seldom went wrong, and then only
when feelings got the better of his
jude ment, for Senator Turney. l Ike all
true sons of the West, has d heart
within his breast, as they say out in
Ell Paso. H introduced and got enact
ed into laws several bills of much i'm
pOrtance and 10 crit. and of him it can
be said that no member of the twenty
fifth legislature went back TO his people
with fIller consciousness ofduty well
performed. All in all the senators
from Southwest Texas were credit to
the + state, and to them must be accre-
dited some of the best laws now on our
statute books"
