The mill which is situated tbirty-fye miles from the mine on account of the lack of water, is daily turning out gold bullion to the value of about $500 from ore averaging SlOO to the ton. Sinking for water at the mine has been in progress for some time and the owners are prepared to sink 20O0 feet if necessary.
 Prescott Courier: J. J. Van Smith has returned from the Colorado river, where he placed one of his alamlgam- ating plants on the Alma Mining company's property. He reports the plant working successfully, and says the weather there is warm: l2o in the shade was the temperature during his stay.

Account Of Alleged
Betrayal.
E. ]. Baldwin Again Escapes
Financial Punishment by
Decree of Court.
Declared to Be the Father of the Fair
Plaintiffs Child and He Ought
TO Support 1t"

Judge Slack of the Superior Court yes
terday handed down a decision declaring
that Lillian A. Ashley has no right to re-
cover damages from E. J. Baldwin on the
charge of betrayal. She asked the court
TO award her $100, 600 worth of Baldwin's s
property, alleging that the great wealth OF
the proprietor of the Baldwin Hotel and
the Santa Anita rancho made him amply
able to respond in the sum demanded.
While Judge Slack gave judgment for
the defendant he ayailed himself of the
opportunity TO severely criticize the de-
fendant and to point out that he had no
sense OF the shameful humiliation to
which MS conduct had subjected him.
Touching the circum stances of tie hear
ing of the case Judge Slack says:
The task of the court has been an exceed
inRly unpleasant one. The trial was pro-
tracted and full of disagreeable incidents. a
vast amount of evidence, oral and docu-
mentary, was presented. Much of the testi-
mOny on both sides is in itself not to be relied
upon, but requires corroboratiou to be be-
lieved. 1t is possible, however, to separate the
truth from the fabricationS, and to reach Wha I
is believed to be correct conclusion. The
wealth of the defendant and the poverty OF
the plain tiff, with the consequent advantage
on the one side and the disadvantage on the
other, have been so frequently pressed upon
the attention of the court during the progress
OF the case that the position of the parties
may be somewhat equalized by resting the
decision upon the plaintiffs own teStim ony
and her written admissions contained in her
numerous letters. So far as counsel are con-
cerned neither side can be said to have had an
advantage, and the plaintiff, were she as
wealthy as the defendant could not have Sc

Paul could bear almost anything but

Oa Sunday he enlisted the attention OF
little Johnny, telling him of the worlds

away from mamma and papa for little
while. They would take away a light
bundle of clothes to keep them warm dur

take with them the little parlor rife papa
has in the bedroom closet.

They soon told their stories and Maher
took them to his home to rest for the
night.
Yesterday morning Maher brought the
lads home to this City, where weeping
parents forgave them for past errors.
But the peculiar phase of this entire

beating as rapidly as had that of Tai that
