General Mining News

To give an idea OF Cochise County's
mineral resources, no better index
need be cited than the fact that for the
past three quarters, since January 1st
last, an average of PIG mining locations
have been located or $50 locations for
the three quarters. The recording rev.
enue from this source alone during the
same period amounted to 975s. The
total number of mining locations in
Cochise county on record number over
IL, 400 and yet the county has hardly
been scratched by the prospectors.-
Tombstone Prospector.
Without much noise, Tom Jennings
is developing a copper proposition just
across the line in Arizona that prom
ises to come forth in proper time as
one of the sensations of the season.
Although he has sought to keep his
new undertaking as free from publicity
as possible, it was learned yesterday
that during the present season he has
been placing consignments with the
local smelters that yielded as much as
90 per cent copper, with a small amount
of silver, while the latest lot to arrive
was marketed yesterday on controls
showing 29,5 per cent copper and 4.3
ounces silver per ton. The ground is
located in Grand Gulch, just below the
Utah line, and in such climate that
no trouble will be experienced in con-
tinuing developments through the win
ter.-Salt Lake Tribune.
Wealthy local talent is again inauir-
ing into the possibilities of the Silver
Reef country, and the experts who
have made the examination reporting
favorably, an old proposition will pass
into new hands. It's metal, that is con-
fined to silver with occasional pockets
of copper, appearing in the limestone,
its occurrence in that gaugue has long
interested the student. 1t was on the
findings of c. NJ. Rolker, a we'll Unknown
mining engineer, that the ground in
question changed hands at 3OO,OOOs
long years ago, and while it was pro-
ductive of some very rich ores, it af-
forded but 25,OOOS in dividends and
then lapsed into a disappointment.
The attention of Salt Lake syndicate
recently called to it, an examination
was ordered and the analysis of the ore
which is now being made will settle
the negOtiations.-Salt Lake Tribune.
Charles Baker came in Yesterday
from Copper Mountain where for the |
past month he has had a force of men
at work on his gold and copper claims.
A depth of thirty feet has been reached
on one of the claims and the result is
very encouraging. The ledge which
was three feet on the surface is gradu
ally widening and becoming more solid.
The ore runs high in gold and copper.
Mr.. Baker is very much encouraged
over his prospect. He now has thirty |
tons of good ore on the dump and is
making arrangements to begin ship
ping to the smelter at FL Paso. The
first carload will be shipped in about
ten days. If the smelter returns are
as good SIS expected the force of men
will be increased and development
work will be commenced at once on
number of adjoining claims.--Yuma

COUNCIL MEETS.
New Home for City Government
Purchased.


Huston aud Domain Lot on Main Street
is Bought Price Paid Two Thous-
and Dollars-~0ld Hall to be Sold =
Walnut TO get Some Paving Build
ing Permit Issued.
Council meeting was held last
night and very important move
was made An order was passed
providing for the purchase Of the
Huston and Domain lot adjoining
the Baptist church. The price to be
paid was two thousand dollars. The
deeds will be made and money paid
over at once and the town will then
have home.
The purchase will include the two
houses standing on the lot. The
old eye sore in front will be torn
down and the frame building in the
rear of the lot will be used as hose
house and for other purposes for
which it may be needed. The par
titions up stairs will be torn out and
commodious hall will be made out
of it.
The present municipal hall will be
sold on Saturday to the highest bid
der by the Mayor. 1t had to be
moved of Of the school ground
which it partly occupied The school
board paws two hundred and fifty
dollars toward the expense incurred
in getting out Of it into new home.
This goes to the town.
The matter of street paving and
the finances Of this branch Of the
town were taken up. 1t was found
that there will likely be enough to
pave another block in addition to
that already ordered to be paved
and an order was passed ordering
paving to be done on Walnut street
from High to Spruce and will be
taken up last this summer.
E A building permit to erect resi-
denee on North Main street was
granted to A. r Gibson Of Function.
The work on the house has been be-
gun and Mr. Gibson will remove to
Morgantown as soon as the place is
ready for oecupany and place his
children in the University.
No other business was taken up and
council adjourned.

REPRESENTATION.
Wheeling Register Lays Great
Stress on 1t.

slefeet at the University should be
Remedied- DIR. Hopkins Secured by
other Sfates-No Attention Paid to
Subject Here.
The Wheeling Register has the
following to say on a subject that
should be of great interest to every
one in this state:
There is no subject of more inter
est to the people of West Virginia
than the care, preservation, and cul
tivation of our splendid forests Our
magnificent woods is one of the
greatest items of the States great
natural wealth,
Yet We are paying in this State
practically no attention whatever to
this to- us most important subject,
which is attracting much attention
in the Southwestern States, where
vigorous measures are now being
taken for the conservation of the
forests remaining.
West Virginia has yet vast tracts
of virgin forests that have escaped
the devastation OF the timberman
and may escape for few years more.
But it will not be long at the rate
at which they are being ruthlessly
cut down until there will be none
left, and then the people of our fer
tile valleys will feel the effect in dis
astrous floods, already too frequent,
!. i4iv,l will sweep their lands bare of
crops and cattle and leave them
parched and dry and unproductive
for the remainder Of the year
There is, as we have said, no sub
iect in which the people of this State
are more deeply and vitality inter
ested than this one Of preservation
of our noble forests, the gift of a
bountiful Providence, ard which we
should care for and husband and not
riotously squander. Yet the evidence
is that we are retrograding rather
than progressing in this matter.
Forestry is an important science and
is included in the curriculum Of
many colleges and universities. But
whereas we nave a well equipped pro-
fessor of this branch of knowledge,
Prof. A. D. Hopkins, Of the State
Experiment Station, at Morgantown,
his valuable service have been Sc
cured by Wyoming and other West
ern commemorative for the summer,
at least, and meanwhile, forestry, as
distinctive study, now occupies no
place at all in the curriculum of our
State University.
1t is an omission that should be
promptly supplied.

DEFENDANTS APPEAR.
Big Oil Suit Again Comes to the
Surface in this County.

Col. w. ". srnett aud w. II. Conway
are Here to Give Notice OF Motion to
Dissolve Injunction Weaver and
others VS. Archer aud 0thers-New
Points Inyolved in tho Suit
w. w. Arnett, OF Wheeling, and
W. III. Conway, OF Fairmont, are here
representing the defendants in the oil
suit recently brought in this county
between Weaver and Others and Arch
er and others They will argue mo-
tion TO dissolve the temporary iniune-
tion on next Wednesday. This en-
joins the defendants from disposing of
any OF the product of the territory
in dispute.
The plaintiffs claim that Archer
who was co-tenant with them in a
certain oil lease in Battelle district,
this county, allowed the lease TO lapse
and then took it up for himself think
ing that il was good. A well was
put down and IL came in fine pro-
Queer. Suit was then brought for
damages by the former co-tenants and
they will use every effort to force the
present possessor to disgorge.
The point involved has never been
passed on IN this state and there Is no
precedent for the decision to be based
on In this respect it will be very
important decision and will be watch
ed with interest by members OF the Lee
gal profession all over the state.
The amount Of money said to be in
VOWED is close on to 800, 900 SO chat
the interest from this will be very
keen among those who are directly
affected. Lazzelle & Stewart and
Cox & Baker, OF Morgantown, togeth-
er with Caldwell & Caldwell, of Wheel
ing, represent the plaintiffs. The
suit is one of the most important ever
brought in the county and from
present indications will be stubbornly
contested.
The well on the lease in question Is
a fine producer and other wells were
being put down when the suit was
brought. Several hundred acres are
contained in the tract in question. 1t
adjoins some Of the best Oil territory
in the county,

TWO THOUSAND MINERS
Leave West Virginia Our Mines viii
Have to Close.

ELKHoRN, w. Va. August e.
Two thousand miners have left here
for the western coal fields. Operators
are compelled to close down for lack
of men.
For many weeks the emissaries Of
western coal mine owners have been
at work among the miners of South
western Virginia to induce them to
go West and work All kinds of in
ducements have been offered, among
Others, higher wages and the entire
elimination of all Objectionable
weights, measures and screens. Min
ers are badly wanted, and the mine
bosses of the west have at last sue
ceeded in getting them. But the
move will badly cripple the mines of
West Virginia. The operators here
will have to make some radical
changes to hold the men they have
now.

MR.. BAKER AT CHAUTAIOUA.
Will go from there to Canada-Some
Observations from the great Church
Resort.

CHAUTAUQUA, July 28th.--I just
dropped into our Methodist headquar-
tiers at this place and while sitting
here, after enjoying a splendid day on
the lake with my family and after a
most excellent supper, it occurred to
me to drop you few lines. Our
tchurch can be proud of her headquar-
tiers for all pilgrims to this resort, as
it is centrally located, substantially
built, roomy and is in modern archi-
tectural style. 1t is interesting to
look over the daily register of Metho-
dists who annually assemble here. 1t
is one of the most cosmopolitan places
in our country, for Methodists from
80 states are registered here this year
1t is surprising to me, however, to see
so many people from the far south, for
Georgia, Mississippi, Tennessee and
other sister states seem to lead in
numbers.
Over 1000 students during the past
year have taken the Chautauqua course
or work in some Of its branches. The
results arising from the southern peo-
pie intermingling with their northern
brethren is most beneficial and no dis
tinction is made between the church
South or North.
The universal expression and opin-
ion OF all southern people here from
many southern states voices the senti-
ment that the late war with Spain has
united the North and the South forev-
or and now Wf have No North and M
South, but one indissolnble union |
have been struck most forcibly with
this expression, and the southern peo-
pie seem to make this point with a
northern man.
The lecture course here this year is
certainly OF a very high standard, and
not alone relating to. church matters,
but covering the most practical and
bread and butter subjects, and no one
can leave these beautiful grounds
without having been benefited by lis.
tening to some distinguished educator,
divine, scientist, or traveller, for each
day some such world wide person de-
liyers an address in the great amphi-
theatre to thousands of attentive lis
teners.
This resort has just past its twenty
fifth year and the attendance is I'M
precedented, and the older it grows
the more popular 1t becomes. We
leave on Monday for Niagara Falls
and Canada to view some OF natures
greatest handy-work Regards to all
friends. GEO. G. BAKER.

EXPANDING.
B. & o. Reaching out for New
Business.
May Extend its Line to Charleston by
way of the w. Va. & Z. Road and the
Elk River Railroad.

1t is stated that the Baltimore &
Ohio Railroad, which has jealousy
guarded its business in the northern
portion of the state, contemplates the
extension of its line to Charleston, in
order that it may more completely
control the business of the northern
portion of the state and that 1t may
enter the rich and undeveloped fields
of the central portion. And this is
said to be one of the plans which the
new management Of the road expects
TO carry out. The line will run south
ward from Clarksburg and down the
Elk river to the capital
The first step ia the direction of the
new branch is said to have been the
acquisition of the w Va. & Pittsburg
road, which, as has already been an
nounced, is now under control of the
Il. & O. and can be purchased by the
latter at any time. This road reaches
Sutton. on the Elk river, 100 miles
from Charleston, and then turns to-
ward the southeast. From Charleston
a road has already been constructed to
Clay. half the distance to Sutton,
leaving a gap of only 80 miles, along
a route that has already been partially
graded, between the B. & o. and the
capital.
For several years the owners of the
road from Charleston to Clay haeo
been promising and attempting to ex
tend it to Sutton but they have en-
countered all sorts of difficulties 1t
has been recently stated by a man in
close touch with the B. & O. manage
ment that the principal difficulty en-
countered was the opposition of the
B. & O. to its extension while it was
financially embarrassed, lest some 9TH
er road should get control of it. But
now. the B. & O. is on it's feet again
he stated that all opposition TO its ex-
tension would be withdrawn and it
looks as though the B. & @. would
encourage its extension now with the
ultimate intention of acquiring the
road along with the W. Va. & P.
road and making a GiIecU olth aud
south line through the center of the
state to connect with the main line
Such extension would open up a
wonderfully rich section and would
add materially to the B. & O.
