Call for Miners Contention.

Governor McCord on January 5th is. sued the following call for miners con. yention:
 In compliance with many requests and in response to the suggestion made by several newspapers of the territory, and believing that a free interchange of views and united action of tn SC interested would result in much good to that inn portant industry in this territory, deem it best to invite those interested in mines and mining in this territory to meet in Phoenix, Arizona, on the 25th day of January, 1898, at 2 o'clock p. n. of that day for the purpose of taking such action relative to forming a mining association as shall seem wise and expedient. This call IS without authority of law. but as nearly all western states have such an Organization which have resulted iD much benefit to the interest, l have taken the liberty to take the initiative by issuing this call. I do not deem it wise to specify how representation for tbe con. vention shall be arranged any further than to invite each camp to send as many of its representative men as it desires, and further that all who are interested in mines or mining to be present. The fairness and good sense of those present will undoubtedly adjust all questions ss to representation fairly and satisfactorily. Very respectfully,
 MYRoS H. McCoRD, Governor of Arizona.

The Supply of Pensroned Widows.

One of the pension conundrums is this :: There are only fourteen survivors of the war of 1872, but 32s7 widows of soldiers who fought in that war are drawing pen sious This makes nearly 235 widows to every survivor, and provides food for thought. When the survivors of the late war begin to thin out, why, their widows can come to the front and maintain the grand old pension system in all its pris. tine purity. When, for instance, the number ef survivors drops to 500 900 the number of widows ought to be 235 times as large, or IF ,5OO, ,OOOs So, though the stock of survivors may run low, the sup. ply of widows IS practically inexhaus,- ible. e.-Memphis Com merciai Appeal.

4 Good Woman's Death.

DIED-In Kingman, January i2tb, 1898,
 Antoinette Randall VerMehr, wife of
 Alfred Yer Mebr.
 The sudden death of Mrs. Alfred Yer Mehr has cast shadow of gloom over our entire community. A loving mother has gone out from her earthly home {: from the little children. An affectionate wife has been called from the duties of this life to the home mot made with hands"
 Her children are not indeed in abso. lute infancy, but at an age when the mind and character need the mothers care and supervision. A noble husband and loving sister mourn for the de parture of one greatly beloved.
 Mrs Yer Mehr was a gifted, accom- plished, cultured woman who frightened with her lovely presence her own home, and made life happier to all around her. The entire com munity feels keen sense ot irreparable loss. No 6reside more hospitable and attractive than hers. It had the charm of loving heart and a cultivated mind.
 She possessed cheerful, joyous spirit combined in an unusual degree with gres! penetration and sound judgment. She met the responsibilities of life with firm purpose and resolute will. Noth- ing interested her so much as the welfare of the little ones and we all know how much she has done to promote their best interests Her own children were not only trained in the right way bu, what was far more important, she com. pelled compliance with her teachings Her home life was sacred and it's duties faithfully fulfilled.
 Her intellectual gifts were not confined to the routine of domestic life. She scaled the rugged stairway of women'' development. and proved by her owr attachments that God has gwen her al necessary gifts to enter every department the duties of which, by study and effor she is qualified to fulfill.
 The funeral services were held at thu NJ E church and conducted by Rev. J M. Baxter. The fraternsl societies O which her beloved husband was 8 mem Der, were fully represented. Mrs. c. E Bowers, aided by choir of we'll trained voices, rendered appropriate music. The large concourse of people present testi fed of the esteem in which she was held Every heart went out in sympathy, no only to the dear children and good sister but also to the bereaved husband or whose hearth home so deep shadow has fallen. Courage, dear brother There are but few more steps to be taker in this valley of pain. Soon we will al throw of the burden of this mortal lift and pass over the river. The loved one all wait for us on the other shore. | "The piteous image of death stands Not to the wise as 6 terror, and not as the en,
 to the pious."
 The rem aims of Mrs. Yer Mehr wer, taken to San Francisco on last Tbursda, evenings train and will be inferred II the family plot. The bereaved husband and children accom panied the remsin to the city.
