AN EXTRAORDINARY SUIT.
Charges of Fraud Brought Against a
 Reception Committee.

A most extraordinary suit has been commenced in san Francisco on the part of two members of the First Cali fornia regiment and one member of battery A. California heavy artillery. against the members of the executive council, which had charge of the recep- ton and entertainment of the Caliror- nia volunteers. The complaint states that upward of S6OO0O was collected and about S2O,OO0 disbursed. leaving about s40.O0O on hand. Allegation is made that the executive council threat ems to spend the money for the erection of a memorial arch at the entrance of Golden Cate Park. a monument for the soldiers, a fund for the permanent ad- vantage of the municipality and col lege or school to be known as the Sol diers Memorial.
 The committee. on it's part. denies hat it has ever thought of or discussed the question of doing any of these things: that the complaint fairly reeks with mean and contemptible falshood. and that it was conceived in cowardice by malignant persons who have not as yet been uncovered. The committee states that it has never handled cent of the funds collected. but that they are in the exclusive control of the ex- ecutive committee. of which Mayor James D. Phelan is the chairman
 The proceedings are certainly extra ordinary. for something like 800 of the most reputable and respectable citizens of san Francisco are attacked in this complaint by three obscure discharged soldiers, who it would seem. are being made catspaws of. Nothing more seri- ous is likely to result from the suit than some trifiing annoyance to the. defend ants therein. and the putting of a damper on the enthusiasm of those who have been Zealously concerned in doing honor to our returning troops.-Los Angeles Times.

SAT ON THE VISITORS HAT.

The German emperor likes to study the characters of his group of small sons and to that end has given them 9 room next to the one used for business purposes for himself. A certain great scientific man. having on one occasion an interview with the emperor, left his hat in the adjoining vestibule. There the little brothers discovered it and the crown prince. explaining 10 the younger ones that papa" sometimes sat on his opera hat and it came all right again. proceeded to give a pr3c- tical illustration Of this statement. to the ruin of the beaver. The emperor g door suddenly opened and pap and the professor appeared. Like a manly little fellow the crown prince owned up. apologized to the laughing profes- sor and went off to buy for the old gen tleran new hat with his small pocket money.-Chicag Times-Herald.

A MEXICAN CHARITY BALL.

San Luis Potosi, Nov. 1O.-A grand charity ball was given at the opera house in san Luis Potosi on the night of the 9th inst. for the benevolent pur- pose of raising funds for the building of a hospital for women. The idea was ".ed and carried out under the aus pices Of Dr. Pagenstecher and other leading physicians of the city and met with splendid success. For those who may not know San Luis Potosi. d pen picture Of one of the most beautiful theatres in the republic may be of jn- terest. Facing you stands the Tea trO de la Peg with no less than ten fine columns of Corinthian architec- ture supporting the roof above which the dome rises in graceful lines A massive stone stairway of ten steps leads one to the entrance. on this occa- sion adorned with huge tropical palm trees: the whole illunrined by the soft rays of the rising moon and giving most pleasing effect

 There are some large deposits of graphite in southern California. no- Lably in Drum valley, Fresno coun.y. Kern county but so far it has not been demonstrated that they have a com mercial value. Nothing, however, has been done upon them to show what they might be worth.

SOUTHERN YAVAPAI.

The following from the mining sec ion of southern Yavapai is taken from the Prospect:
 Gillespie and Bartholomew are pack ing 150 tons of ere from the Devon shire mine to the Yarnell mine It is q high grade free milling and concen- trating ore. The mill will start about the first of December.
 Mir. ". A. Clark. the rustling. wide awake manager of the Planet Saturn company. Fools Gulch. has secured water rights in Peoples valley for the company and WEI commence at once the survey for pipe line to tha mines. He intends to erect 100-stamp mill as soon as he demonstrates that he can get water sufficient to oIerate q mi I of that capacity.
 William Drew. of the Blue Tank dis trict. has sold his group Of mines. in cluding a five-stamp mill. to a Pitts burg. Pa, company. They have com menced work on the mines under the management of MT. Al Strahahan, late Of Jerome. There are some large veins of free milling gold ore in the group

MARICOPA COUNTY.
Things are Busy in the Wick nourg
 District

The following mining iteIs are talk cn from the correspondence of A. H. Carnage to the Los Angeles Mining Re view:
 It looks now as if there mignt be some jumping of claims on the first of January. I call it jumping but in reality there is no jumping about it. in the sense of taking any mean ad- vantage. Only the other day two men located three good claims which were located by other parties two years ago but on which they never did a lick of work. Yet these claims were supposed by many to belong to those original Iocators.
 The Butte and Boston company has been busy the past week letting con- tracts on some of its ground for the performance of the annual assessment work. The company has some twenty claims on which work has to be done but it has succeeded in arranging for it all by letting contracts for it. They are still sinking on their shaft. The ground in it is badly broken but they are in hopes of soon getting into more solid ground. when they will drift across the vein to see what they have.
 A deal amounting to S125. .OCO was put through last week by Mr. Templeton. He bonded the Bob Groom group of five claims for that amount Tn pe- cent was paid down. Surveyors are al- ready on the ground locat ting a road from the main road to the group. AS soon as. the road is finished work on the claims will be commenced on 2 big scale. which will include a main wOrh- ing shaft levels and crosscuts. Bur ley drills will be used and machinery heavy enough for a depth of LCO1 feet will be set up. The company for whom Mir Templeton bought the group will work three shifts of men. They are much elated over the showing the ora makes and are confident they have the ground to make d big mine.
 The surface of this property is cOv- cred with rich copper ore. A biz dike crosses it. This dike can be traced for miles but no deep workings have been done on it. The property has in fact, been held for twenty-five years by Bob Groom with a lead pencil" but he died about a year ago. The time is past in Arizona when a man can mine in that kind of a way. He must Eow either work his ground or let some one have it who will. That is one of the reasons why Arizona is So fast coming to the front as a mineral producer Of copper, gold and silver to say nothing of our other minerals.

CHLORIDE DISTRICT.
Progress of Mineral Development ID
 Mohave County.

Most of the lumber and timberinG Tor the new Merrimac concentration IS now on the ground at the mine, ana E-i Hilty. foreman. is engaging quite a force of men in putting it in readl ness for the machinery. says a corresp ,hd . ont of the Mining and Metailur8lcI Journal. There is an accumulation or ore on the dump awaiting the erection of the mill and cOncentrator. In th- northwest and southwest drifts Of tne mine from the SOO foot level. the ores are fine and of a high grade snip ing character.
 Six feet of ere is reported in the Ten a1essea mine that will average l'v ounces silver to the ton. TimSers are arriving for stoping in all the under ground workings. which will nec ssi tate the employment of larger force or men than ever before and more thar double the output.
 Lately the management .ot the Elk hart mine has changed the greater DOT tion of it's development work into con tracting. but not lessening the numDlr of men formerly employed. Much ol this. however. is new work, the com pany having decided to do several nun dred feet of prospecting in the uIder- ground workings. Work continues however. as formerly in the mine prop CT. and the ore output is as great as usual.
 The Midnight mine. which has been pushing through a 400 foot contract CT development work for some time past is passing through and cutting some fine streaks of high grade gold and sli- yer ore in the northeast drift Of the -Uo foot level. The new work consists or 200 foot shaft and northeast and north west drifts of 100 feet each. During this time a great deal of ore has been hoisted that will average Sl5 to the ton in gold, and. if water can be developed suitable machinery and process-s wAl be erected for it's reduction.
 Salt Lake capitalists are here 'ook- ing at mines and prospects with a view of purchasing. and it is quite probable that two or three sales have been made but no definite information can be ob- tained. If this is the case. the Re demption mine is probably one of them, besides the Bryan and Distaff.

flooded with literature disparaging the Hallwood Cash Register. REMEMBER WHEN YOU STEP ON A PIGS TAIL IT SQUEALS. Treat these wailings of a passing monopoly with the contempt they deserve. A picture of some one hundred HallwOod Cash Reg isters will be eagerly shown you. These are claimed to have been discarded. THIS IS FALSE, The truth is these machines were bought up for ADVER- TISING and KNOCKING purposes. AfTidavits on exhibition at our of fee show that in many cases much more than the original price was paid to procure same. They will be OFFERED for sale at cut prices. trying to INTERFERE WITH OUR BUSINESS and ORDERS for same may be TAKEN but they will NEVER BE DELIVERED. These are facts and show the desperate efforts of a would-be monopoly to con trol the cash register business. The agenry of the Hallwood Company To- cated here urgently requests the users of the improved Hallwood to immedi- ately notify them of any threats or ef- forts to damage their MACHINES and ample protection will be afforded and such attempts vigorously prosecuted.

The results of the struggle for su- premacy between the HaIlwood Cash Register Company and it's opponents which has been so successfully fought out in the East by the Hallwood com pany is probably news in this section. The contest has become a veritable chestnut in the East and the efforts of the opposition to dissatisfy the users uf the Hallwood have reached q point there where they are not only laughed at but considered simply.

BONDING A MINE OR PROSPECT

A great deal has been written as to the advisability of a prospector or mine owner granting the right to the intending purchaser to prospect CT thoroughly test a claim before a sale is made. If conditions are imposed on the purchaser as to the manner in which the work is to be done and the amount or il that is required. then the claim owner is protected against dis honest worl, or trickery ca the part of the intending purchaser, who. if hold ing fraudulent intentions to depreciata the value of the claim. when the pur- chase price has not been agreed on bs- fJrshand. If the property has not been exploited sufficiently to meet the re- cu.rcme1,s which the purchaser de- D'a1ds. tscn He should be bound to sim. fifty tcct. or stiI better. seventy five or io0 and run levels and crJSscuts at t-at C'pth. and if more work is de- handed. ,n sink 150 feet and drive lev e's and crossCut. By stating al what point a-.d t. what extent the work is to be done, the owner will protect himself ir doing so. Under an option Of this kind the purchaser has to per- form the development in q workman like manner and not to depreciaUa the value of the property by covering up the ore which is found. To grant an intending purchaser an option CT bond without such necessary precautions. is to place too much confidence in q stranger. especially if the owner IS not always present at the property to sec that the work is conducted for the bet tcrIucnt of his property. II is the GUS
 tom with mining papers Co state nat owners of mining property claim and demand too much for their claims or mines. but there are exceptions to th's rule in these who have faith in the permanence and value Of the deposit and are willing to grant a working op- tion. A case of gross ignorance or wil!ful fraud on the part of an eastern firm of chemists or their representa- tire who was interested with develop ment work under an option to purchase Q mining property in San Diego coun- ty. Cal, is a ease in point. Positive intent to depreciate the value of the property by filing up with refuse rock ' openings where ore was found. is neither honest nor the act of gentle ! man, when the owners were absent 1 from the property. It is expected that
 an action at law for dama ges will be taken by the owners.-Mining and Met allurgical Journal.

HENRY BILLION REMOVED.
Result of Scandal in South Dakota
Board Of Embalmers,

Henry Billion, president of the South
Dakota Undertakers' Association, has
been removed by Gov. Lee. The note to
Mr.. Billion informing him of his removal
was very brief, stating that the Governor
had carefully considered the evidence
taken by him at the hearing granted Mr..
Billion on July 81 in Sioux Falls, where
the charges formally made were fully sub.
stantiated. The Governor has not yet APP
pointed successor to Mr.. Billion.
Shortly after the examination of under
takers held in Sioux Falls about six weeks
ago Henry Ziller, J. N. Trepanier, Tim
Lonnon, Philip Davis and others filed
charges against Billion, accusing him of
partiality in the examination, and setting
forth that offers had been made of the sale
of the lists of examination questions
Billion was not accused directly of having
sold examination papers, but it was alleged
that his son had offered them for sale. In
defense Billion claimed he did not examine
or mark the papers of the candidates fol
certificates in Sioux Falls, but that they
were examined by the other members of
the Board. He also denied the sale of the
questions by his son.
