MINING NOTES.

Isaac Siggins, of jamestown, N. Y,
who is largely interested in the copper
mines north of the headgate, arrived
in Florence this week and has been
locking over his property, with which
he seems well pleased. Mr.. Siggins is
an old Comstock miner and made a
fortune in the west-Florence Tri-
bune.
w. A Buell. was up from Lordsburg
last week, says the Copper Era Mr..
Buell., it will be remembered, left for
California several weeks ago, but did
not go any farther than Lordsburg, as
while there he was induced to visit
the Virginia mining district and was
so favorably impressed with the mines
that he filed on twelve claims and pur-
chased a half interest in another. Mr.
BUELL. recently sold some mines to ]. G..
Hopkins, located in the Black noun
tain district, and received u snug
sum of hard cash.
The mining industry of Graham
county was never more prosperous.
The activity is confined to no certain
locality or district but new work is
beginning in all sections. AT Cliff

Clark, the Coal Fields, Mount Turn

THE HENRIETTA GROUP.
Situated in the Mining District of
Big Bug.

The Henrietta group consists of the
invincible American Flag, the Yankee
Girl and the Silverton mining claims.
These mines have always been good
producers, but through litigation their
process has been greatly retarded, says
the Prospect.
The latter part of last August the
property was secured by lease and
bond by Messrs. Smith, Belcher, Hanna
and Spear.
Since operations have been resumed
the lessees have met with wonderful
success. In clearing the water from
the mine the first discovery was made
through a cave from the wall in one of
the lower levels, which left the ore eX-
posed to view. With limited prospect
ing, ore has been found in various por-
tiOns of the old workings.
Last Saturday, in Il drift of few
feet from a tunnel on the Invincible
claim, Il ledge of ore was encountered
which was some four feet in width,
the pay streak averaging fifteen inches.
The ore assay gave $50 gold, besides
some copper and silver.
The most important discovery is the
one recently made on the Silverton
mine The Silverton adjoins the
Gopher mine, and is on the same ledge
as the others. A forty-fiye-foot shaft
has been sunk on. this claim 1,200 feet
from any other workings. To say
that the shaft is in ore is correct, when
the fact is known that over fifty tons
of ORE have been taken therefrOm. The
assay gives $16.5O per ton gold.
The writer saw last Thursday
efghty-six and a half ounces of retort
gold put on the scales. which was from
a run of twenty-five tons of ore from
this group. in a few days a much
larger cleanup will be made.
Owing to scarcity. of water only five
stamps of the mill can be used, but
from the appearance of the elements
it looks as if this trouble would soon
be obviated, and the milling capacity
at least can be doubled.
1t is q fact that there is enough ore
in sight now to run ten stamps for
year.
Joe Mayer is one good man that made
money from the Henrietta mines, and
there are no doubt others-but this
we do know, that each one of the gen
tIemen now controlling them are good
men; men who have been putting up
hard cash for many years in mining,
and the Prospect joins all their friends
in the hope that each of them will reap
q fortune.

A SERIOUS COMPLICATION.

In the mountains of east Tennessee
the natives, or rather the lower circle
of natives, take many liberties with
the queens English. A physician who
practices in that region tells of an in
cident illustrative OF this. lie had n
patient who was being nursed by q
friend. One day the doctor called and
said 10 the nurse:
We'll, Jim, how is Bill?"

The Result of One and Two Lies

When boy in Texas was called into
court as witness and questioned as to
his understanding of an oath, he said :
eff tell one lie will be sent to the
legislature, and if tell two of them
they will send me to congress-" OF
course, his competency as a witness was
Immediately objected to, says the Phila-
delphia Times, but the court, after ma
ture delbeTation, decided that there was
no reason why his testimony should not
be admitted. This ruling will probably
be found fault with by many in Texas
and out, but there will be many cynical
individuals who will maintain that if the
Texas boy was right the state is to be
congratulated oD the superior morality
Ut its legislators and it's congressman.

MISMATED STOCKINGS.
Something New That VIII Attract At
tentiOn of Both Sexes.


Dame Fashion is responsible for MANY
curious foitles. II is now decided that
tue worshipers at her shrine must wear
mismated hosiery. A New York fashion
sheet says :
"Mismated stockings are the latest
new things to attract the attention of
the fair sex. TOsbe ultra fashionable one
stocking must differ from the other in
color. For instance, the left stocking
may be black with a sprnkling Of red
silk polka doBs and the right stocking
of red with black silk polka IT'S. A
pale blue stocking with bronze clocks
has mate of bronze with pale blue
clocks. And so the COR binations 90.
Only the similarity of decoration in the
stockings announces the fact to the
uninitiated that they have anything in
common. The riotous fancy of the mo-
ment also stripes the hosiery in harle-
quin fashion. The stockings are divided
into halves and quarters, the brilliant
coloTs presenting sharp contrasts. Some
times the upper halves alone indulge in
the motley color, leaving the boot in
Somber tones IF black, blue or brown.
The stockings come in the finest weave
% cashmere or in lace patterns of Isle
thread. They range in price from
Seventy~fVe cents to 50

TWO WANDERING SKULLS.
The Heads of the Mahdi and of the Duo
de Richelieu.

If the head Of the Mahdi is wander
ing above ground, there are two mem
orable skulls at large. The other is
that of the Duo de Richelieu. At the
time OF the revolution In France the
body of the Duke was exhumed from
It's grave in the Church of the Sor>
bOnne. This having been subjected to
numerous inGignities the head was cut
OFT and the latter eventually came into
the possession of grocer, who after
ward sold it to NJ. Armez, the elder.
M Armez, after the restoration
offered the head to the minister
of foreign affairs, who took
no notice whatever of the offer
The son of NJ. Armez inherited the
skull In 1916 the ilustrious Mortal
Yembert, when president OF the hiStori-
cal committee Of arts and monuments,
at the instance of his colleagues, did
his best to recover the skull Of the
duke, but without success. NJ. +.
Feuillet de Conches, in his "CauserIes
d'un CurienX," makes this comment
1--WE accuse no one, still the fact is I'm,
deniable that this terrible head, the
personficaton of the absolute mons
archy killing the arIstocratic mon
archy, is wandering upon the earth
like a specter that has struggled out
of the domain of the dead" Are the
