TO GUARD AGAINST THEM.

A store where trunks and grips are sold displays the following card over satchel in it's window: Money bag, steel wire ined.' This is an evidence of the precautions that are taken in a sober city like Syracuse to prevent the practices Of men who in Shakespearian times were known as "cutpurses," At that time the purse was worn attached to the girdle by men and women alike. The ''cut- purse" was one who would mix in a crowd, cut the fasten1ngs of ones purse and then make away with it. Similar methods are seen today among the thieves, who will cut open a persons pocket in a crowd and ex- tract whatever valuables it contains. The satchel described above as being wire lined is for the purpose of car rying money in large amounts. Such receptacles are used by large busi- ness firms for carrying daily deposits of currency to the banks. That they are used in this city IS perhaps evil dence of the fear that the burglaries committed by the wholesale in the last few months have occasioned in the minds of the business men. Gen eral use of such affairs is mostly con- fined to the wild and woolly extreme west. Such grips are customarily cut open by robbers when they are sto- len, but the wire lining in the i'm proved ones makes this difficult to Omplish.-SyIacuse Post.

MINING IN THE SIERRITAS.

The mining properties of Judge Bethune and District Attorney Satter- white, thirty-five miles from Tucson in the Sierritas, are in excellent Eon- dition; they have a large amount of good ore in sight. Shelter returns show a large percentage of copper and silver, together with 60 per cent lead, with no zinc or refractory metal whatever They expect to erect con- cemtrating works shortly to reduce that portion of their ores which will not yield as large returns by ship ping as by being concentrated on the ground. There are several other fine properties on this lead. The Marguerite and Montezuma, both pat ented claims, show fine bodies of cop per ore, both of which, it is said, are likely to be sold within a reasonably short time.-Star.

NUGGETS FROM THE HILLS.

A silver bar weighing fully 300 pounds was the object of curiosity to many as it lay on the dump at Pearce last week defying the efforts of two men with chisels to cut it in two. It had to be shipped whole.
 Another important mining negotia- tion took place yesterday, says the Tucson Star of recent date. The bonding of the Young American group of copper mines in the Silver Bell dis trict. A nice lump of cash was paid down and the remainder will be paid in short time. The Young Ameri- can group has large showing of cop per ore, much of it is high grade. The sale and working mean much to Tue son.
 The Journal-Miner says a very rich strike was made recently in the Sum init mine on the Lynx creek divide, within about a mile and a half of the Chicago company's property. Samples of the ore taken out were shown at this office today, and while no assays had been made of it, gold could be seen sprinkled through it in large quantities, and s1,0oo per ton would be a very conservative estimate Of the value of these samples.

The principa claims are located twelve miles soutl of San Carlos and with the exception of about three miles, a good wagon road can be easily made. For three miles the country is rough, but roat can be provided to the mines withou heavy cost.

SULPHUR MINES
Great Deposits Being Developed in
 Lower California.

A company of Pittsburg capitalists, represented by J. A. Dubbs and Ora ham Caldicott, with headquarters in Yuma, have commenced active devel- opment of the sulphur mines in Lower California, about twenty-two miles southwest of Yuma and six miles from the Colorado river. Recent de- velopments have revealed almost in calculable quantities of ore which as says 80 per cent pure sulphur, and can be shipped in the crude state to the eastern refineries at handsome profit. One of the first acts of the company will be to lay a pipe line from the river to the mines, and es- tablish a pumping plant to supply the necessary water. Buildings are being erected and the promoters think they will be ready to ship ore with in six months. "A small steam tug boat has been purchased to ply be- tween Yuma and the mines. This boat is capable of towing two scows on which ore will be transported to the railroad for shipment, and sup plies taken to the mines on the return trip. The method of mining the ore is simplicity personifed. Wagons are driven into deep vertical cuts, the walls ot which are sulphur, and the ore is simply broken 66o-s1f and load ed into the wagons below by means of chuteS. The ore is combuStible and burns readily if lighted with a match. A sulphur refinery is one of Yuma's possibilities, and will prob ably be established within the next two years.-Sentinel,
