"Red Pipkin," the pal and coIfeder- ate Of "Broncho Bill," now languishes in prison in Albuquerque. The arrest made in Utah and Red was placed in jail at Winr emuca, Nevada, that prison being the most convenient to the place of his arrest. Charley Moss, Wells, Fargo & Co.'S. messenger, met this notorious criminal at Mojave and guarded him to Albuquerque. From Red was learned tie whereabouts of two other criminals who have in the past figured somewhat in this locality. Jim Stanley, who was in the railroad hold.up at Cannon Diatlo some years ago, and who gave Bucky O'Nsil, then sheriff of Yavapai county, such a long chase; aud Chas. WHoneI, who killed Ike Lee at Holbrook sometime before the h,la-Ip, wa, b)sh ia jail at Winnemuca under the charge of train robbery.

BLEACHED BONES.
The Complete Skeleton of a Human
 Being Found in the Huachucas.

Late Saturday afternoon word was brought to town by Chas. Broadbeck that the skeleton of man had been found few days previous in Montezu. ma canyon in the Huachucas, The discovery was mace by d Frenchman who was prospecticting in the canyon.
 Upon learning these facts, Coronor Williams summoned jury and with Deputy Sheriff Vaughn left at once for that place. They found the bones, as already stated, lying in the canyon un- der the shade of the trees. The bones were as dry as tender, showing the man to have died several years ago. Not a sign of clothing of any description was found. A lone suspender buckle, pat ented in 1887, and pants button were the only things found beside the bones.
 The skeleton represented that of Q large man, about six feet tall, the bones of the arms and legs being extremely long. One of the front teeth of the up. ger jaw WAS of gold, and one of the molars was filled with silver; from these two seemingly insignificant facts lead to the belief that the bones, are none other than those of Wm. Wolver- ton, who disappeared about three years and half ago. Intimate friends of Wolverton claim that he had two teeth filled in identically the place as those were, and the bones being of large man would also tend to confirm the be- lief.
 At the time of Wolverton's s disappear ance, he left the Thompson ranch on the San Pedlo river about sixteen miles from here, on horse back, stating that he was coming to Bisbee; two days later his horse. with saddle still on, returned to the ranch. Search was made to find him and it WAS found that he had come to Bisbee and had passed through, stat ing that he was going to the Ross ranch in the Swishelms. A few days later he was found setting under a tree near the Four Bar ranch. He was discovered by,several cowboys. who asked him to goto the house and have something to eat and stay over the night. He replied: "No, thanks, have to go on to Bisbee tonight" From that time no word or trace of him has ever been heard or found.
 Wolverton, at the time of his wander ings, had been suffering from the effects of being kicked by mule some time previous. He had been in the hospital at Congress for several months and left there supposed to be well, but while all right, his brain was left in confused state and only at ir rtcsvals was be rational.
 The finding of the bleached bones evil den!ly clears the matter up., The n, fortunate man wandered around with out food or water 1ntil he became too weak to travel and then lad down to await the coming of the death angel to relieve his sufferings.

. -TAR following excerpt from the Pres = cott Journal. Miner Is so applicable to a
 certain class of mine promoters who in
 fest every mining community at some
 time in it's history that we reproduce it 1; . not because we are personally acquaint- ehwith the gentleman Tn question, but for the reason that there are so many
 middle-men who play the same roll that
 just at this time it is very appropriate.
 The Journal Miner says:
 David Boaz, name familia to a
 great many people in this section. and
 man who foatsdgnprs mining propo.
 sitions than a, ether one man who
 ever came to F RStt. threatens to re- 2turn to ArixonaN Sain. 40faii the mia .@ing enterprises started by him, not one
 ever provel a success, although the
 properties themselves contained merit.
 But intending investors do not judge country as a rule, by the merit proper
 ties may possess, but by the success or failure achieved in working them. A
 failure to such, is failure, and no amount of legitimate excuses can change
 the complexion of it. The greatest ca lamity thatcan be visited on any sec.
 ton, smallpox and cholera not excepted,
 is the tin horn mining expert, the cot. ton sesd mining promoter, and the hay seed mining superintendent. The min. ing interests of any section would be, better promoted if quarantine could be established against them. The few dollars that may be placed in circula- tion, for the time being, are consider ably more than offset eventually by the draw back given to the industry through subsequent failure arising from mis- management. The caoitalist who un. derstands mining, and the one who, though he may not understand the bus. mess himself, employees those who do, and who will carry on his buslnsss on business principles, is always d desir- able usquisition to mining commu- nifty. During the past few years it is highly gratifying to know that tls has been the class of men who have been investing in this section, and the results being achieved by them arc not only beneficial to themselves but to the country generally as well. There are plentyof legitimate openings here for good, practical mining men, but tho mining promoters who in the past have erected their monuments of failure in the various mining districts, will find 1 the owners of mining claims very slow about entrasting their properties to them ,sif they place any value whatever on them"

Few people have any concep- ton 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 500 feet, simply because they found sufficient ore between there and the surface, to keep them Tn constant operation. It Is said by parties who have the opportun- ity to know, that they now have suffi- cient ore in sight to maintain their present output for fifteen years with out having to sink another foot; and what is true of their property must be true of this company's property when developed.

 "La California Camp, Montezuna Dis ttrict, Headwaters of the Yaqui River, Sonora, Mexico, February Is, lo&9- Our camp, after being quiet several months, is now verging on Il mining boom, which may soon grow into one of the greatest of the west. Rich and new strikes are being made in all directions. Within one mile of headquarters half ! dozen new claims have been located within the past few days.
 Our new location, where the ledge IS 0 feet wide, assays from $100 to $500 in gold. A piece of ore taken out of the ledge, as large as a mans head, shows free gold all over it and would assay into the thousands. This ledge was To- cuted by the prospector on the first day he was out prospecting. The next day another prospector found and located a large ledge of sugar quartz with ire gold in it.
 \ member of one of the oltlest mining companies in the district heard oi the rich ores of the camp and immediately went to prospecting and located two ledgcs near the camp, both ol which are rich in gold and silver.
 An extension of one of our claims wal located a few months ago. The ledge is from l5 to 50 feet wide, and where it is b feet wide is shows an average assays ot $lo3 in gold per ton.
 Mitchell, Clark, Evans and Stout are the pioneers of the camp and own La California and Pasadena, on which they have done considerable deve!op. ment work. They also own humber pi otler claims, which promise equally well.
 La California is said by many to be tine bonanza of the camp, shuw,ng an average assay across tine ledge of from TSo 70 S00, where the ledge is twen,y feet wide.
 The writer believes this camp will ! prove to be the richest producer in Mex. [ ico Tn q few years. The Copper Queen c"mpNny, of Disbee, owns large copper mines within F miles of this camp. :

The owner of . gool prospect canno.
 enhance the value oi his property more
 rapidly than by doing some intelligent
 development work upon it. In boom
 camps, where fictitious values prevail,
 he may sell his undevelopad property
 at good figure because it happens to
 be in favored locality and in the Cline of promoiion," but the same claim with little money jddiciously expended in development would doubt. less sell it at several tlmes the amount. Not many mining investors nowadays buy mere prospect holes. The rich lead may lie underneath "just little ways" but tho buyer does not believe 1t because he is told so. He wants to see it and sample it, an the only way to give him the opportunity is to go through the hard rock with steel and muscles. There are several promising districts in this vicinity that have brought forth producers within Il recent period and are occupying such prom inent place III inc mind of the investor that they are making rapid progress in a mining way. Experience has taught that those camps which are meeting with popular favor furnish the best for the prospector, for il ho dis covers anything of merit it will not be difficult to roalize at a ftir value, and the greater tho showing he has male ,n his claim the greater hia reward,
