Ellison Kimpton and his Massachusetts
friends did not have much luck in getting
a deer while in the woods last week, SO
broke camp and returned to Island Pond.
A day or so after their return to the VII
lage they went out for stroll by the
head of the pond, and Ellison thinking OF
their non.success remarked to his COM
panions "Wouldn'r it be a joke if we were
TO run across deer now seeing that we
have neither firearms nor anything to
capture it?' The words were scarcely
uttered when at distance of less than
twelve feet from them there leaped up
fine buck and before they could realize
what had happened it had disappeared
from their astonished gaze. Too bad
Ellison to be $50 near and yet so far"

Mr.. Perkins was born in Topsham, Me,
little more than 81 years ago and came
to Bloomfield i'll 1864 as bookkeeper for
the Perkins & Jackson Lumber Co. In
politics he was an ardent republican, and
though never aspiring to public office he
was continually kept i'll office by his
townsmen. He served the town 20 years
as town clerk also as treasurer and Sc
lectman most of the time. He was elected
State Senator in 1882 and town repre-
sentative in 1892. Mr.. Perkins was a
man OF strict integrity and conscientious
Christian. He joined the Baptist Church
i'll his early manhood, feeling that his
young days were none too good to de-
vote to his Masters work. When he
came to Bloomfield he joined the NJ. Z.
Church by letter. He loved home and
family, and was great student of an
Gent and modern history. Our loss is his
gain. Taken as he was he was prepared
as he had been for MANY years teaching
us that Christian lifeprepares us forthe
life that now is and for that which is to
come.

MINING PATENTS.
n he Bent fits Derived FrOn,
 Patented Mines

The Herald observes that one of the most encouraging signs Of the times in the territory in the mining buis- ness is the inclination that now pre- vsils to patent mining properties. Never before in the hi.tory of Arizona has there been so many apI lications for patents as st the present time. This nssns that miners who have been working on prospects for years become satisfied with the richness and permsnency of their properties and are therefore prote ctipg that pro- perty by securing title to it. The tendency of this move is to give the mining business of the territory sts- bility and character and thereby com- mand respec, and capital in the east where capital is plenty and always looking for legitimate and safe mining investment. The securing Of title to . mining property ct once marks that property as valuable snd is not resort ed to until 6 claim has been thorough ly-developed and its approximate valuo uncovered and found worth the ex. pense of the protection a title gives to such property. Some old and well- known properties are only now taking steps to secure title. The measure is one that should be taken by every worthy property: When this situs- ton is understood at the capital cen- tsrs of the mining interests the tusi- ness of mining investments will be largely simplified ard heGoDe 8 safe and most deeirable business.
