Have Returned.

Tom Peppers and J. B. Brandon, two of the five Blsbee citizens who left here last May to serve Uncle Sam as packers, returned yesterday. The boys are not looking as they might, as both were taken ill with fever while in Santiago and for several weeks were confined to the hospital there. They have many interesting stories to tell, and have had a crowd of anNioue expectators around them listening to their tales ever since their arrival.
 They both cOndem the treatment that the soldiers received while in CIba. They state that prior to the taking of Santiago, the troops were in a heaEthv cocdition and had plen'y t6 cat, such as it was, but after the ci+y'' fall 'he r't- cers spent their time in the city car Il . ing and did not attend th" m'n'S va l. This was not true, however, of Coonel Roosevelt, who took monev ont of his own pocket and bought fruit, veget' al,les, etc., for his entire regiment. The boys state that the Rough Riders, with the tenth cavalry, are entitlei to tn" honor of winning the battle on San Juan Heights. Peppers states that the sights after this battle were most re,. rible to behcid-men, horses and mules lying wounded and dead in the broiline hot sun, the stench was something ho rible, while the cries of the wounded begging to be killed or crying for water were heartrending.
 Peppers was in the thiekest of the fight and was engaged in packing am. intuition to the front in all the battles He landed with the first detachment of Shafter's army and was in the first pacl, train that went with tine army. Bran don and Peppers both agree that tn, ] Cuhans as a rn'e are an ignorant class 0 1 people ard gre rot capable of governin: | themselves and arc rot worthy oftth' loss of one life, not toesay anything 0
 those it has cost to free them. Botl the boys arc glad to reach home again and are anxiously waitinguntil they ar, strong enough to jnmp into the sadQl

BIsBEE, Ariz., Aug. 3l --Vo mineralo- gists and experts who wish to interest { themselves to promote and develop a new process of separating impurities from metals. This new process Is a study of seventeen years, based on na. ture's own works. Through this pro. cess nature will produce its own fuel. separate It's own impurities, and will net leave trace of metal in the refuse. The impurities extractets from metals by my new process can be placed 0n the market for building purposes at nom- inal cost, that will stand and equal any material that has been put on the mar ket.
 My experience in Anaconaa in 1892 with the Anaconda Smelling Company was as still-converter man. dis. covered they were working to disad. vantage, ana from my information they doubled their smelling capacity. Since severlng my connection with thcm i have been employed hy the Golden States Mining Company, in the Fur. quoise mining district in Cochisc county, Arizona, in the same belt as he Black Diamond and Middlemarch properties.

The new 6ypot brop4ht from East Benson, is rapidly approaching compile i ton. Foreman Fred Sterling, of the N. I Nj. G A. bridge and building gang, is doing fine job of work. Work ofm Ing the old depot off from the strip has begun. and very shortly Nogales will have two first class depot buildings.-- Oasis.
 c, 4. Overlook is being urged by his fricnSs to allow his name to go baforc the people as a candidate for supervisor Mir. Overlook is successful business man, and if he can succeed for himself lit goes without saying that he would guard the interests of the public.
 The fcn,s being erected alon 2 the line of the N. M. & A railroad from Benson south toward Nogales, as a cattle guard has been completed to,a point near FL gin station. The fence is being erected iu substantial manner It will be 8 source of comfort to cattlemen when completed and doubtless big saving to the railroad people.
 ThePhoenix Republican is correct when it says that the office of supervisor is more important than any other in the county. It is an office that should be filled by progressive business men who will ever guard the interest of the tax : payers, and let no man illegally thrust his hands into the county treasury.
 As the train for Benson was about starting Monday evening a heavy storm set in, and it was deemed advisable not to run the train until Tuesday morning. Three bridges in the Sonoita canyon were washed away, but before morning they were cribbed up by the work train. At seven o'clock the delayed train start. ed, returning from Benson about five o'clock in the afternoon.-Oasis.

Sunday evening very interesting meeting was held at Library Hall. This lately enlarged hall was filled to the doors. The church, choir rendered several solos, anthems and cboruses very acceptably; and several of the del- gates to the Grand Lodge, I. o. G. T., addressed the meeting.
 Elder Jean Brown, of Phoenix, pre- sented some scriptural thoughts of Temperance. Rev. F. w. Downs, of Stafford, spoke of the imporance of tenn perance work among the boys. Mir. Jewell, oi Globe, spoke of the influence of the individual, showing how impor- tant that each one should do his part. Duncan Walbridge, of Phoenix, spoke of the special mission of the Coed Tenn plars. Mir. c. o. Austin, of Tempe, on the work. The question was then very ably summed up by the Hon. Judge F. M. Doan, of Florence. The appeal to the audience seemed to impress them very forcibly-twelve voluntarily gave their names to the different mem bers of the Good Templars present, toapply for membership.
 The members of the grand lodge ex- pressed themselves as well pleased with their reception by the people of Bisbee.

Bisbee.

An exchange in describing big rain recently uses the following language: Somebody had a two-gallon jug sitating out with corn-cob stopper and the rain filtered through the pith till it filled the jug. Bill Barnes hammock got so full of water Bill had to cut the meshcs to keep the rope from breaking. An un- known man was driving hard up Bur nett hill to beat the rain. He kept out of danger, but the dog had it's head out the hind end of the wagon and was drowned. The water drove through a pond so swiftly that it washed every thing away but the banks and when the water subsidized the pond was dry. Some other sad accounts are given but these are the only ones that struck us as being true."

! Frank Hopkins, lTothcrof Tom Hop | kins, the we'll known sheep man, is vis-
 iting Bisbee, after having made a trip l from Los Angeles to Dawson City. | MT. Hopkins said that hundreds of men i had returned from the Klondike coun- ' ny with good news in the form of gold
 dust, but the amounts stated by the coast papers was undoubtedly eXagger.
 atcd. Prices paid for anything was 1 high, becapse of the expense of getting in supplies. As an instance of how prices go Mir. Hopkins said man
 brought ill from San Francisco few boxes of canned (fresh) oysters. and sold them for $20 a can, and the man didn't lose can. Another party
 brought in punches of bananas and sold them, without loss of "banan, !" at one dollar each. Beer sold at fifty fGertS q glass, rot schooner, and wisky at one dollar. No one cared for prices. man engaged hall the day the first war ncws came and fixed the price of admission at $l.50 per head. As per announcement the promoter read the latest paper. This looks like fiction, but Mir. Hopkins vouches for it. He said further that the papers sold at one dollar each.
 There are several saw mills Tn the country, and hewed timbers .me largely used. in building. It was surprising how we'll the stores and saloons were furnished and fitted up. Gold dust Is sold at ZIG an ounce and passes current for all purposes. Men are coming con stantly and are generally fitted out for several weeks of waiting. Wages run from $i to $l5 according to the caracter of work.
 MT. Hopkins has with him copy of the Klondike Nugget, we'll printed sheet. The price of same is $l6 year, single copies fifty cents. Mr. Hopkins did not say how much dust he brought out, and could not decide at present when he would return to that country. A man can go from Bisbee to Dawson now for sl60, possibly for less.

COPPER B kIRG The South BiSbee Copper MIniDg Qld TgVlSIe
 Improvement Co. CAPITAL STOCK $5,000,os3o
Non-Assessable and Carrying no Per.
 scnal Liability to the Hslder

THE group Of mines recently pur- chased by the SOUTH BIsBEE COPPER MINING AND TOWNSHIP IMPROVEMENT COMPANY are situate on the south west side of this copper basin, and extend from the top of the moun- tsins on the west to the center of the basin on the east. Few people have any conception of the ore bodies or the unlimited amount of mineral that lies in this basin. The Copper Queen Company has been operating here for eighteen years and are down only 5D0 feet, sim pik because they found sufficient ore be tween there and the surface, to keep them in constant operation. It is said by parties who have the oppor- tunity to know, that they now have sufficient ore in sight to maintain their present output for l5 years without having to sink another foot; and what is true of their property mast be true of this Company's property when developed.
 The stock books of the above Con- pany are now open for subscription and limited number of shares . are offered at TWENTY-CENTS per share. No applications for less than 100 shares will be accepted. Applications for stock or copy of the prospectus to be made to

 Every dollar ot the proceeds 'frop tine sale of shares of stock and from the sale of the Company'ss town lots and blocks, which we estimate VII be a large sum, will be invested in sinking shafts, development work, the erection of hoisting works and modern smelters, and all necessary Improvements, to make this enter prise successful in every way. We can deliver our coAe supplies directly from the railroad cars ta the smelt- CTS; and can also deliver our bullion directly to the cars. We have no salaried Oficers-hence every dollar will be used for developing the prop erty of this Company. The books of the Company will be open for in- spection at all times, and at the annual meeting of the Company, full and exhaustive reports will be submitted to the stockholders. for their approval.
 This corporation is composed of practical business men. Upon re- quest of interested parties, we will, with pleasure, submit evidence to show that our claims are modest, in view of the remarkable indica- tions and possibilities of this prop erty. PETER JOHNSON. E. ROWAN,
