The Great Alpha Strike.

This week great discovery has been
made in the Alpha mine at Layne
Springs. The vein ia which the strike
was made is one of the largest in the
district, but of late years little work
has been done on it, About thou
sand tons of ore is lying on the dumps
and acting on the suggestion of Thorn
as Mcmahon the owners this week
made a test for copper. What was
their surprise to find that the refuse
ore has a copper value of - per cent.
On the heels of this discovery the own
ers cut into what was supposed to be
the footwall of the ledge and exposed
ten inch vein of beautiful ruby sill
yer ore. Fifty feet above this the
footwall ledge was opened and rich
horn silver exposed. The mine is
opened by a long tunnel connected by
shaft with the surface. From this
tunnel level is a winze eighty feet
deep, with ore the full width feet.
This ore is said to carry value of 20
per cent copper, 20 ounces silver and
small amount in gold. Heretofore
only silver and lead values were paid
for and owing to the locality the lower
grade ores we're considered worthless
The discovery of copper in this mine
shows how little mine owners really
know of the metals carried in theiI
ores. A little judicious sampling and
assaying is recommended.

o The America Cup Still Ours.

After many trials the Shamrock and
Columbia got away in good racing or
der, last Monday off Sandy Hook light.
The wind blew ten mile breeze and
from ten minutes after the start the
race was the Columbia's. The defend
er won by ten minutes and {, urteen
seconds. Tuesday the yachts got away
we'll together, but three miles out the
top mast Of the Shamrock went down
with a crash, completely disabling her
Columbia kept on over the course win
ming handily.
The Shamrock stepped new mast
Wednesday but owing to lack of wind
there was no race until yesterday. The
two boats were sailed beautifully in
yesterdays race, but American sailors
showed their superiority over the for
eigners by sailing all around them. The
sight was a magnificent one to see the
two yachts on the homeward leg under
full spread of canvas in seventeen
knot breeze. The Columbia won the
third and last race of the series by six
minutes and thirty-four seconds.
The yachtman who said that owing
to the peculiar construction the Sham
rock would never win a race was some
thing of prophet. Sir Thomas Lip,
ton spent about l,OOO,O)OS on the Sham,
rock and must feel rather disgusted
with English designers aud English
builders. He should come to America
where there are people who can build
boats that will sail the seas like things
of life.

A Big Mining Sale.

This week the San Francisco mine.
Cedar Valley, passed into the hands of
Title Il FiNen, of Los Angeles, on ac-
count of W. L. Lewis, president of the
Mitchell-Lewis Wagon Company, of
Mitchell, Indiana. The price paid for
the property is away up in the thou
sands and the transaction one of the
most important made in this county in
recent years. The mine is situated
about sixty miles south of ingman in
one of the most favored localities in
the county. The owners, The w. II.
Taggart Mercantile Company and Ii
burcio Padillo, have opened the prop
erty up in excellent shape and have
exposed great bodies of free milling
gold ore. Wood and water are plenti-
full in the immediate vicinity of the
property. Under the contract of sale
twenty-five ton cyanide plant is to
be put in at once and a force of men
will have to be put on next week. The
stamp-mill is now on the road and will
be on the ground within thirty days
The new owner is millionaire and a
thorough business man who will work
the mine to its full capacity. With
him this is business venture, not a
side issue. The Messrs. w. III. Taggart
Company are to be congratulated on
securing this important company fol

Twenty Years for Murder.

At four o'clock this afternoon the
prisoners convicted of crime at this
term of court we're called before Judge
Sloan and the following sentences i'm
posed.
John Brown, convicted of the murder
of l.. o. Simmons in the second de-
gree, was sentenced to twenty years in
Yuma penitentiary. This will give him
plenty of time to get over the killing
habit which he has acquired during
his twenty years residence in Arizona
and California Brown served term
in San Quentin for perjury in an arson
case in San Bernardino county several
years ago. After leaving the pen he
tried his hand at robbery at Prescott
and secured eighty cents. The small
ness of his haul did not deter the
trial judge from giving him four years
in Yuma pen. He came to Mohave
county three years ago and seemed to
have forgotten his wicked ways, but in
an alteration with another bad gamb-
ling man at White Hills in January,
| 1897, he killed his man and escaped
the consequences. He shot a man
named Mcdonald in the leg at grad
ing camp four miles below Kingman
eighteen years ago. but his profession
that it was an accident was accepted
and no arrest was made. 1t is said he
shot man at FL Dorado Canyon a
dozen or more years ago, and also has
another killing to his credit. He is
dope fiend and the pen at Yuma, where
he can lead a quiet. uneventful life is
considered the proper place for him.
Leonard Hammond, whose strong
impulses lead him to examine the in
side of buildings after the owners had
retired for the night, and afterward
developed a Jail breaking tendency,
pleaded guilty to burglary in the sec
ond degree and was given years time
in Yuma to review his failings.
George Fuller, who while under
spiritual influence and anger some
months ago tried to carve up fellow
workmeu on the A. 4 U. railroad grade,
was sentenced to fifteen months in the
