The Way of the World.

The way OF the world.
SIN, was woman worn and thin
obom the world condemned for a single
.inthey cast her out of the kings high
v.y and passed her by as they went to
rr,y He was a man and more to
blame. but the world spared him a
hreath of shame, beneath his feet he
.aw her lie, but raised his head and
passed her by. They were the people
who went to pray at the temple of God
ON the holy day; they scorned the wo-
man, forgave the man, it was ever thus
since the world began. Time passed
an and the woman dies, on the cross of
shame was crucifed, bat the world
was stern and would not yield, so they
hurled her in potter's field. The
man dies, too, and they buried him in
A casket of cloth with silver rim. and
they said as they turned from his
grave, "we have buried an honest man
today."-Eychange.
Geo Mitchell passed through jerome
Junction last week bound for New
York City. He went there for the
purpose of settling up some mining
affairs. and from there may go to
Europe. Before leaving he was served
with papers notifying him that James
Shirley and William Vanderbilt had
sued him for l26,OO0S, the sum they
claim as there share coming from the
sale of the Cobre Grande mines in
Old Mexico. They have succeeded in
getting an order from the court which
enjoins him from handling his profits
on the sale until the suit is settled.
Shirley and Vanderbilt have also start
ed suit against q. w. Hull for share
of the money paid him for the United
Verde Extension mines, and have sue
ceeded in tying up the money already
paid on the property. This will not,
however, touch the 75,0 0s deposited
for development work on this group.
There Is liable TO be a long and tedious
law contest in both cases, as the gen.
tlemen who have started suit claim
they have papers to prove that they
Are entitled to share of the money in
both cases.--Jerome Mining News.
From gentleman who recently re-
turned from the Huachucas, the Orb
learns that on Monday the final papers
we're fixed and signed which bonds the
Pete Connors gold property in Carr
canyon to Chicago capitalists repre-
sented by o. B. Hardy. A bond is
taken on the property at price of
lO,O0Os, 2,OO0s being paid down. The
operty is situated on the south side
of Carr canyon. on the divide, between
that and Miller's. A number of shafts
have been put down on the ledge, one
to depth of forty-six feet which is all
in good ledge matter carrying free
gold. The ledge in some places on the
surface is over twenty feet wide and
rock broken from any portion of it
shows free gold to more or less ex-
tent. A small sized gold nugget about
as large AZ pencil tip was taken out
of the shaft, which Mr. Hardy now has
as a pocket piece.-Bisbee Orb.
The Horseshoe mine, located on the
Lone Star mining district, about ten
miles in northeasterly direction from
Stafford, is one of the freaks of nature.
As its name indicates, it shows on the
surface in the shape of a horseshoe.
The ledge is almost perfect circle
except about forty feet on the west
side being covered with the surface
soil. 1t is fully $50 feet around this
circle. The ledge is from four and one
half to six feet across, averaging from
six to twelve per cent copper and car
rying some gold and silver values.
Four shafts have been sunk on il in
space of 800 feet. The deepest is 30
feet. The ore in the bottom of this
shaft is improving. g.--Graham Guardian.
Thos. Hicks, who has been working
on the Ridenour group of mines, in
the Grand Canyon region, has returned
to Prescott, says the Courier. He says
some very rich ore has been shipped
from the group. Stopping has been in
