can be depended upon to cling to
the post of duty.

Some persons have the idea that
to be church worker man must
be crank or fanatic on all moral
and religious subjects; run to ex-
tremes. The fact that many are SO
is a great drawback to the churches
to-day. But of all men who ought
to take n broad, common sense view
of matters it should be the church
man. The Book teaches modera-
ton in all things, but this teaching
is not needed. Men will set their
individual judgment up against it
and go to extremes; they are intern
perate in their criticism and judg-
ment. Some are Incorporate at
one extreme and others at the 9TH
er extreme, SO it is often puzzling
to tell which is the worse. "Be

who in divine mercy and grace has en-

We should be especially thankful that

inspiration of our fathers is being real

An Interesting Report of the Fast
Weeks Activity.

The following mining notes are
CLEANED from the Globe Silver Belt:
The KAISER Gold Mining company is
working a force of thirteen men in its
mine in Lost Gulch. A new hoist was
received last week. Five stamps of
their mill have been running since Sep
TENDER 8, and We understand the re-
suits have been satisfactory.
P. ]. Cole has placed on exhibition
at the assay Office of George S. Andrus
a box of fine specimens of native cop
per and sulphide ore from the cole
and Goodwin Bros. claims, located
some months ago, on the north fork
of Mineral creek. seventeen miles from
Globe. The specimens We're taken
from a shaft being sunk. now down
about fifty feet. and in good ore. The
formation is slate. said TO be identical
with the Jerome mines. There are
sixteen claims in the group. and the
property is attracting considerable at
tention from local mining men.
William W. Dickinson and John
Heuck have Il lease on the Ped Oxide
copper claim. owned by Mr.. Duryea
and situated two and half miles east
of Globe. near the Buckeye. They
have a good showing of carbonate and
oxide ores. and expect to make ship
ments soon.
F. o. Maclsey and A. e. Wiley, who
have a lease and bond on the Califor-
MIA and Arizona copper claim, near the
Gray mine. have a force of men em-
ployed taking out ore for shipment.
They expect to make the first ship
ment about November Is.
The mill run made by Brophy q
Hamilton at the KAISER mill Of twenty
eight tons from the Badger No. 2 mine
was entirely satisfactory. the retort
showing 321z ounces Of gold worth SIS
per ounce. which was shipped 10 Selby
&, Co. today, besides what was saved
in concentrates. 1t was the best mill
ing run ever made on custom ore at the
mill. The owners Of the Badger no ,
intend to work during the winter.
