taken in this case against such an ac-
ofdent as had just occurred. The or
namental wall consisted of twenty
courses of brick three bricks thick,
laid in common mortar on top of the
front wall The ordinary precaution
of securing it at the ends had not been
observed There were no stays nor
supports of any character. A similar
ornamental wall on the western part
of the same building had been Joined
to brick work which sIoped back
upon the side wall, affording some
security.
Though the wind had been blowing
violently from the north a short time
before, persons who saw the wall give
way said there was not a strong wind

by w. T. Smith.

ORE EVERYWHERE
NV and important Discoveries at
Jerome.

| ]. Thomas of Jerome, now in town
said yesterday that the Equator mine
on which work has been suspended for
long time on account of litigation
will soon be reopened. a compromise
has been effected by which the prop
| erty is divided in Two. w. A Clark,
who got one-half in the division, calls
his property the Copper Chief
But the greatest interest is felt in the
Dillon mine, located by Ralph Dill
| Ion, who is now backed by Scotch
capital. About 1000 of machinery
has already been put up, and more
will be ordered when the mine shows
up well enough to justify il. A great
deal of development has been done in
this mine. The Dillon lies IN sight
of Jerome and near many other loca-
lions. In fact, the hills near the
United Verde mine are spotted with
prospects more or less developed
Every foot of the ground has been
prospected and a few locations are
promising. The News located on
the side of a hill and near the Dillon,
is a small camp in itself This prop
erty is also well developed and a great

ore employing a great many men.
There is a singular fact in connec-
ton with the United Verde and the
property Immediately adjacent. Never
has a tunnel or shaft been sunk into
Senator Clark's property that ore has
not been struck. 1t is all of good
grade and easily manipulated. A few
weeks ago excavat ions were made into
the side of a mountain, for the pur-
pose of getting dirt to use in filling in
levels, where much stopping had been
done. The work of eXcavating had
moi proceeded far when a great deposit
of ore was encountered In another
instance the company started a tunnel
into the mountain to build side
track for the railroad and more ore
was encountered. The company is
constantly increasing the capacity of
the smelter and employing more
miners.

MAYBERRY'S CRUCIFIxION
Phoenix Drummer Hung on a Fence
TO Dry.

Frank Mayberry, a drummer. ar
a ticket at Cleveland, O., a few weeks
ago and it was important that he
should leave on an afternoon train.
His business affairs consumed more
time than he had expected and he got
to the depot just as the train was pull
ing out. The depot gate was already
closed and the yardman would not
have opened it for the president of the
road. Mr.. Mayberry was so anxious to
catch the train that he threw his va
lise over and climbed up on the fence
He started to jump, but his trousers
caught on a picket and he was sus-
pended in midair. The yard man never
stopped to unlock him. Mr. Mayberry
exhausted his energy in trying 10 free
himself from the picket, but he dan
gled from the picket five minutes
There was a crowd of hangers-on
about the depot and they assembled
in force, but made no move to aid the
unfortunate and indignant Mr. May
berry.
4 wonder how he got there said
one.
"Oh, that's the Savior come again,
but he's being crucifed before he
fairly makes his appearance"
HE looks like a criminal was an
other remark.
Probably he stole something and
the officer detained him on the fence"

and the populace proceeded to examine
it. There was found in it samples OF
old rye and the crowd did not hest
tate to appropriate the stock. A po-
liceman happened on the scene and
there was a scattering of the mob
The drummer was let down and given
an opportunity to tell his troubles to
a policeman.

said Mr. Mayberry yesterday, but it
was the extreme punctUaIty of the

BURIED UNDER BRICK
Remarkable Escape From
Death of c. E. FIKE.
The Front Wall of Lawrence < Uark's
Store Collapsed Yesterday Even
ing Throwing Down 5000 Brick
Completely Covering Him.

If Chauncey E. Fike, living in a
tent on North Second street, gets we'll
he will have had an extraordinary de-
liverance from death. He had an ex-
perience late yesterday afternoon
which in the nature of things ought
to have been his last. He was com
pleteIy buried under a brick wall
which had fallen upon him at height
of from twenty to twenty-five feet.
Mr.. Ffke was walking up Adams
street about 6 o'clock. When in front
of the carriage store of Lawrence q
Clark the top or ornamental part OF
the front wall fell outward and Fike
was borne down and completely COW
cred. The first person who came to
his assistance was little boy, Eddie
McClarty, who began throwing the
bricks off of him. Others ran up and
the unfortunate man was uncovered
and dragged out, leaving a hole in the
debris showing where he had lain. On
all sides of him there was pile Of
brick from fourteen to eighteen inches
deep and the depth of that part where
Fike lay had no doubt been as great
Not less than 5000 brick were in the
heap.
Fiske was taken to the Office of DR..
H. V. Clymer, who had witnessed his
burial. and was surprised when he ex-
amined him that he was not only still
alive. but had net sustained eXtraorcG-
Sahy outward injury. DR.. Clymer
called DR.. Wylie. and careful investl-
CATION was made of the wounded man.
There were many ugly gashes about
the head and bruises on the body.
R1rt there were no broken bones and
the skull was not fractured. At any
rate there was no fracture of the outer
nlafe. though II was possible that the
inner one had been forced down. That
was something, though, that could not

almost impossible that he could have
escaped senious internal injury OF
some kind. He recovered conscious
ness in a few minutes and told VINO
he was. Within an hour after the dc-
cident he was removed 10 MS nome;
where DR.. Clymer visited him at
o,cIock He was then suffering Sc
verelv from the shock, was vomiting
violently and complained of extreme
soreness everywhere. At midnight MS
condition was somewhat improved and
the physician believed that he would
get well.
An indignant crowd gathered around
the buried man. The wall was
called a death trap and curses were
heaped on the owner and the architect
of the building. The Dystanders said
that this was an argument in favor OF
a building inspector. Phoenix had got
past the stage when a man should be
allowed to follow his own irrespOn-
sible fancy in the construction of a
building.
Absolutely no precaution had been

Never, never let us tarry, as we go the
 way of life. Ever fearless and undaunted, let us
 battle through the strife. Verify, 'tis hard to follow in the way
 that conscience shows, Even he who plants the seeding, still
 must tend the flower he sows, Rendering what God has given, into
 gentle harmony, Sowing through the coming harvest wt
 may never, never see, And although death soon oertakes us
 when this mission we fulfil, Yet, although the world forgets us
 virtue will remember still. Dare, then, to exist and labor, close tc
 Mother Natures breast, In this world our tasks await us, and
 we have no time to rest, Even though the way be dreary, Goo
 must know that all is best.

OUR LITTLE GRAY HELPER.
Poorly Equipped by Nature, Yet He Doe'
 His Work Well.

Poorly Equipped by Nature, Yet He Doe'
 His Work Well.
 We have Q little gray helper who cannot hear, nor see, nor make any noise. He wears a little gray coat and he lives in tiny caves which he burrows out for himself. Our little gray helper has no feet, so he crawls.
 He works busily for us all day in the ground under our feet, coming out chiefly at night to get his food. Then he does not take anything which any one wants, but only fallen leaves and bits of stuff which no one cares about, and which are best out of the way.
 Although much less fortunate than we, having neither legs, nor feet, nor hands, nor eyes, nor ears, he has all that Is necessary to the performance of the work he has to do; and since our little gray helper has all he needs, and does his work, and does it we'll, We may think of him as being quite con- tent and happy. And since the work that he does for us is very necessary and important work, and since he does it exceedingly well, we need not re- gard him with less than respect.
 He has a system of blood vessels, a nervous system, and-yes, a brain. When you come to consider him under a microscope and in relation to the work he has to do, he is quite an inter esting and exquisite bit of mechanism. He uses his brain. and has wisdom to know what to eat and how to get it. Though he has neither eyes nor hands. before taking anything into his cave, he examines it carefully by means of his one sense (toueh1, and with his little upper lip, which the scientists call prostomium. This lip is very sen sitiYe.
 He is prudent and thrifty, always dragging into his little house enough to secure him against the coming day, for blind and deaf as he is, he knows it is not wise to be out in the daytime, for the birds and their babies like him entirely too well.
 He also knows that, being of a chilly nature, he will need to be wrapped up bit when he goes to sleep in his cave, so he makes his own lit tie bed of blades of grass and bits of leaves which he has dragged in with the little lip that does so much. He seems to like fresh air when he can get it. so he rests with his head near the mouth of his cave; and Mother Ma ture, realizing that this might give Robin Redbreast an unfair advantage of him, provided him with head covering darker than the rest of his coat, and very nearly the color of earth.
