ALFRED HAMPToN's GOOD LUCK.

H. D. Blake of Los Angeles came up from Casas Grandes Saturday and left for Nogales. Two months ago Alfred Hampton outfitted Blake to prospect in the Sierra Madres and sent him out from Nogales with two Mexlcans- IL was a lucky investment for MT. Hamp- ion for he is now half owner of rich silver mine in the Sierra Madres. To an El Paso Times reporter MT. Blake said:
 MT. Hampton was government i'm migration agent at Nogales and fur nished the money and hired the two Mexicans to accompany me with the understanding that he should have half interest in anything found. first tried the Yaqui river for placer gold without success and met with no encouragement until I went into the Sierra Madre mountains on the Aros river, 122 miles from Casas Grandes- There I struck it rich. I found a s5ven foot lead of the prettiest silver and lead ore I ever saw anywhere. l had an assaying outfit and promptly as sayed some of the ore, which run nine hundred ounces in silver per ton and p per cent lead. To make sure I had not struck a pocket that would soon pinch out" on me, put the Mexicans to work developing the lead, which soon discovered run horizontally along the side of the mountain, and by dig ging down ten feet was able to trace the lead for fifty yards to a point where it turned and went into the mountain, At this point I dug down through the vein and from its center took out ore that assayed 940 ounces in silver and two ounces gold to the ton. I am confident the deposit is a very large one and so decided to return to Nogales and report to Mir. Hampton. But on reaching Fl Paso I learned that he had accepted position as aide to Major Butler and was now a lieuten- ant in the army. However, I suppose he left letter and his address for me at Nogales so I shall hurry on there
 T came out by the way of Casas Grandes because every prospector l met told me it was the nearest and best route, and though I was a perfect stranger to the country I experienced no difficulty in following the good wagon road to Casas Grandes. I left the Mexicans in charge of the mine and shall return to work it as soon as I can communicate with MT Hampton and get money enough to buy supplies and implements for force of twenty men. I am confident the mine is worth s200,000. Lieutenant Hampton of course does not know of his good luck''
 MT. Blake said he suffered very much for water going into Mexico from Nogales, but that there was plenty of water on the Casas Grandes route.

HE FAILED TO MAKE GOLD.

B. c. Brice, who claimed to be able to make gold, has gone, and the $20,- 900 building and plant he erected at Thirty-ninth street and Lowe avenue stand idle. He is reported to be sui fering from nervous prostration. The plant is said to have been a commerc- ia1 failure, although P. G. Lamoreaux, who was appointed temporary manag- CT, says the theory is all right He as- serts that the books show where every dollar received by Brice was expended even to 1900 he received for stock two weeks ago. For six months Brice worked night and day. It was the dream of his life to make the plant a success. Pressed on all sides by stockholders when the plant was not turning out gold according to expec.a- tions, he held them of by his iron will, at all times claiming to be on the verge of success, until his money was exhausted A little over a week ago he acknowledged his system was a failure and asked MT. Lamoreaux to take hold. MT. Brice flung himself on the couch in his office and went like a child.
 The shareholders numbered about three hundred. Many of them were poor people who suffered privations to buy stock. Shares which sold for $10, their face value, in October, rapid ly increased in value. By November they were quoted at $50 and $75 Dur ing December some were sold for s2OO and s250. Shareholders built air cas- ties and looked over their back yard fences at the stone mansions they would buy. Now they are having a hard time to pay rent.-Chicago Rec ord

was made several months ago? Now that the political schemers have had their say and failed, would it not be a good idea for practical mining men to take up the matter and push it to a successful termination? Much good might be derived from such an organi- zation, and were it in operation at the present time Arizona would have a mineral display and representation at the international mining congress which convenes at Salt Lake City on the 9th proximo. Those who have been delegated the responsibility of perfecting the miners association have made a signal failure, but the matter should not be allowed to sleep. Men who are actually engaged in min ing should commence where the poli- ticians have left of, and see to it that Arizona has a miners association.- Arizona Orb.

MANUALS AND TERMINALS.

It has recently been shown In a sci entific paper that the reason why some plants appear as annuals and others as perennials is simply because of the strain on nutrition which annual plants make. In perennial plants there is not the same draft, and lit tie nutrition is left to form buds at the base, and in that way continues the same individual plant from year to year.
 If the annuals are prevented from maturing seeds by having the flowers cut off early they become perennials, and make buds at the base just as

The potato, for instance, makes a new tuber, but all the rest of the plant dies; 1; and this is said to be true, in the main, of all plants-even the straw berry, as there is nothing about the plant more than one year that is truly Iiving.-Meehan's Monthly.

WOMEN ALONE IN EUROPE.
American Wives q Source of Wonder
ment to Europeans.

AMERICAN WlFeB u source OF WOh0cE-
ment to Europeans.
Among Europeans of what are called
the upper classes much surprise is con-
stantly expressed at the freedom with
which American women travel unes-
corted through Europe. A recently re-
called American minister to conti-
mental court was once asked by court
official: "Haf American wifes no hus-
bands at all, then? They come-three,
four, six at once to court. They ask
to be presented to the king; they ask
to be invited to state dinners; they
must walk in nit duke. There are
not dukes enough to go round. Why
do not their husbands come and walk
in init some duchesses?" At the Aus
trian court no Americans outside of the
diplomatic circle are presented; very
few at Berlin; while Queen Margharita
of Italy, who has been more hospitable
to our people than any other conti-
mental sovereign, has recently declined
to receive any married woman unac-
companied by her husband. ''Have
they no homes in their own country,
these poor ladies?" asked a French
woman, shat they spend months or
years in Europe wandering about
alone?" 1t was explained to her that
American men often remained at home,
earning the money necessary to send
their wives and daughters abroad for
the education which foreign travel
gives. "If that be so," she replied,
"they will study art and languages
hard, so as to return quickly to those
who work for them. They will not buy
costly clothes nor push their way into
every court in Europe"

AN INVESTIGATION
IS NEEDED
Dewey Wants a States
man Sent to the
Philippines.

NEW YORK, Dec. pa dispatch to
the Herald from Manila says Admiral
Dewey considers it absolutely neces
sary that first-class statesman be
sent to Manila to thoroughly in.
investigate the situation here and
ascertain the aspirations of the Fill
pino republicans. He further states
that the United States must accept
their responsibilities in the Philip
pines which have been acquired by
conquest. If they should shirk this
duty they would put themselves back
200 years in the worlds history.
The first republican government has
resigned over the question of Ameri-
can Intervention in the government of
the Philippines. Owners of property
desire American cooperation.
The present temporary cabinet,
which will exercise power pending the
elections, is very Anti-American. 1t
allows no American cooperation
whatever, and wants to declare free
republic and to consider Americans as
allies. 1t is willing to grant liberal
commercial treaties, with a monopoly
of the mines and railways, and to re-
pay the expenses of the American
occupation of Manila.
Troubles due Ito malcontents con-
tinue in the provinces of Tarlac and
Padgasinian. Republican troops
have been sent there to quell the
disturbance.

Sheep smothered.

The lone Herald gives the following
account of a rather peculiar accident
that occurred near lone:
Last Wednesday evening while a
band of ]. A. Woolery's sheep were
being brought in to feed at the Frank
Akers ranch. four miles below town,
they met with catastrophe resulting
in the death of about $40 head of the
best sheep in the band of 1000. The
herder. George Geinger, as usual was
driving them across Willow Creek,
through passage about 200 feet in
width, and in crowding against a
panel of the fence, it gave way, preci-
pitating lot of them into the creek.
Sheep-like, all thatcould, rushed in on
top and soon they were five deep,
seething and struggling for their lives.
All efforts to keep the others back
were of no avail, and those that were
not smothered were trampled to death.
Messrs. W. 81. Corson, U. G. Rudd
and L. L. Woolery went down early
next morning to skin the dead sheep
and discovered that no less than $40
of them had perished. They were all
fine, big lambs, the cream of the band,
and Mr.. Woolery's loss is fully 81 200
estimating that the sheep, with the
wool on, were worth So per head.

oBEYED THE JUDGE.
Got His Man and brought Him to

GOt hlB Mum ahu AsEOuSht MIN -
Tcvrn.
Among the wills that were probate6
the other day was that of negro black
smith named Austin Thompson, whose
shop was on Sycamore street. There is
a story connected with this mans name
that is worth telling, says the Lexington
Ky.) Herald.
Just after the war old Benjamin F
Graves was county judge. He was al
eccentric man, very peculiar in many
ways, very honest and very positive
He ruled with strong hand. One day
Austin Thompson, who lived in the
county, was brought before hin
charged with hog stealing. The meal
was found upon his premises, but h'
had made no effort at concealment.
He acknowledged having the hog an6
killing it, but insisted that he bought
the hog from another negro, who rep
resented it as his own. Judge Graves
inquired if he could ''bring that Other
nigger into court" He was answered
somewhat doubtfully. The old judge
then answered to Austin that he ''must
bring that other niger in, dead ol
alive"
A day or two afterward Austin drove
up with cart to the judges Office, and
entering informed his honor that hi
had his man.
Bring him in," said the judge.
81 can't" said Austin; "he's dead"
He had followed the old judges in
structions to the letter. The Other
negro refused to accompany Austin tc
town, and so Austin killed him.
Of course it caused an immense sen.
sation in the community, and there
was talk of impeaching the judge and
of hanging Austin. But nothing after
all was done about it, and the matter
was allowed to drop.

The New Umatilla.

The Oldest inhabitant scarcely re-
members when the Umatilla house
was not the leading hotel of The Dalles
or when it was not the place where
the drummers, the stockmen and the
farmers congregated when they visited
the city. Few hotels on the coast are
more widely known or have kept up
their reputation as has this house. 1t
is the one land mark in The Dalles
known to all who have ever visited the
CITY. however there have been times
when it was apparently cherries
and cold, but that does not apply to the
present. Recently t.has bee2. supplied
throughout with steam heat, and
now the workmen are erenovating paint
ing and papering the interior so that
it is scarcely recognized by its former
friends. Those who have known it
for years as the ''oid" Umatilla will
soon have to speak of it as the 't.new"
Umatilla, for ere long it will in effect
be new establishment.

Covered With Mud.

A slide occurred on the o. r. & N,
line about one and one half miles this
side of Oneonta last night covering
the track with mud and rock for a
distance of 100 feet. The debris piled
up to a depth of fr1m one to Is feet,
though the track was not apparently
injured. Trains No. and were met
at the slide by train from Portland
which transferred mail and passengers
so there was no interruption to pas
senger traffic. but freight trains were
held up on account of the slide, and
will not get through until the obstruc-
tions are removed.
