Arizona Silver Belt
THURSDAY, JULY Is, 1899.

Private advices received in this city, says the Los Angeles Mining Review, announce that Mir Frederick II. Clark, stock and bond broker of New York and of Boston, recently bonded and has practically sold the Erie and Gun . Greek mines, situated in the Tonto Ba- sin, Arizonia, to the Wahnita Copper Mining company, a Jersey corporation having mining interests in Michigan. The writer of the letter conveying this information further says: ''l believe the mineral wealth of that section IS very inviting for capital, and that the enterprise of the Atchison Santa Fe) people in endeavoring to secure the traffic by making Winslow base of supplies for the whole district and the kindly attitude of the Southern Pacific have assumed will bring the heart of Arizona into commercial prominence. The district contains untold wealth in not only timber, gold and copper, but the finest onyx ever worked in any country in the world.

JEROME'S LATEST FIRE.

On Tuesday evening of last week, fire broke out in the reverberatory of the United Verde Copper company, threatening the destruction of the works. The fire had its origin from the friction of belt driving one of the blowers and made rapid headway, in volving the wooden framework of the building.
 The following particulars are taken from the Jerome Reporter: '"The great coke bins between the main road and the place of the origin of the fire were destroyed and 800 tons of that inflammable maternal lay exposed to the flames. The railroad trestle and two box cars thereon wero tumbled down on the mass and added their quota to the rest. The heat generated was of such intensity as to keep at a distance those who attempted to fight it. The workmen took the plan of go- ing ahead of the fire and cutting through the rick of coke. To accom- plish this force was put to work with cars and shovels, while large hose was playing on the flames The race between the fire and the men was a long and exciting one, and won by the men by a margin that justified the haste urged by the mine officials The rick of coke was about fifteen feet wide, and before break could be made through it and the coke moved, fire was within eighteen inches of crossing ahead of them This in the face of constant stream from 2-inch hose.
 ''ro add to the gravity of the situa- tiou, when the bins burned from around the coke it fell through shaft into the 300-foot level, and it was only by herculean effort that the entire mine was prevented from being fired; as i. was it burned until four o'clock Wednesday morning"
 The fire will cause only brief suspension, until temporary coke bins are erected.

Memorial day Everywhere the day IL
practically considered a legal holiday,
but only in the number of states men
toned is it SO by law. Most persons con
slider it as what il known a. a national
holiday. Surprising as the fact may
seem, there is no such thing as n ma
tional holiday There is 10 provision In
the constitution Of the United States
that permits such thing Congress has
from time To time recognized certain
special days for business purposes. but
not even the PRESIDENT proclamation
of Thanksgiving day makes IL a legal
holiday in any state unless the legisla-
ture Of that state has SO signifed by
legal action.
1t needs no president proclamation,
no legislative action, to make the Unit
ed States observe Memorial day. The
descendants of the 2,77S. 304 soldiers
who constituted the Federal armies
which fought from 1851 to 1865 need
no reminder to perform what they con

MISS CYETHY'S
LILAC BLOSSOMS,

Memorial day at that important part
of the universe known familiarly as
the Corners was always a gala day.
Every one in the little village planned
on its coming from one year to another
1t was the hope of every one that lilacs
and all spring blossoms might be in full
bloom at the important day and so be
carried to the tiny cemetery on the hill
to deck the soldiers graves.
After viewing the decorations Deacon
Hiram Pepper always remarked, They
couldn't git a better trimmin mp if
they was a-lyin in Mount Auburn std
of the buryin yard at the Corners.
The few old veterans in the place,
with the younger men as Sons of Vet
erans. marched and drilled for weeks
beforehand that they might make an
imposing appearance, while the maids
and matrons, bound not to be outdone
by the masculine portion, either had
new gowns or pressed and retrimmed
old ones, that they might make show
ing equal to the rest.
One evening about week before the
eventful day Miss Cynthia White stood

the Sam She had known and loved. She
gazed upon him for a moment, and
then. with tenderer voice than you
would have believed possible, said kind

cause she hadn't any pretty flowers for

Just slipped of and came down here
and don't you think you could give me
one little bunch. just to prise herr"
The pleading voice and the straight
forward blue eyes looking into Miss
Cynthy's face stirred tender feelings
within her. She bent and pressed her
thin lips to the lad forehead as she
an wered Pick all you can reach,
Sammy, and remember l IN your Aunt
Cyuthy now.
The boy laughed with glee as he
pulled of one cluster after another,
while Cyuthy broke from the higher
branches wiki lavish hand. When the
arms Of both were laden, Cynthy said,
Come, Sammy" and hand in hand
they went softly through the cleaning
toward the little buryiny yard on the
hill, where a tinse of sunset glory still
fingered.
Is they entered the little gate they
saw in the farthest corner figure
kneeling upon a grave whose tiny flag
showed it to be the grave Of a soldier.
They walked softly on, and as they
drew nearer sam sprang forward ex-
claiming. "See, grandma, what Aunt
Cynthy aud have brought youI'
The hewildcred little woman rose
quickly to her feet, but the next minute
Lily. lilacs and all, were clasped in
Miss Cynthy's strong arms, while a
voice, that did not sound like Cynthy's,
said to her soOthingly:
There there, Lily, don't cry. I've
been wicked and cruel to you. but I'll
make it up to you what l can. I'll send
my team after you and Susy and them
