Sneak Thief.

Yesterday while the clerks and
proprietor of the A. A. Adams
store were out in front watching
the procession of the Minstrel show
pass on Broad Street, a negro man
made sneak in the back door and
helped himself to a stack of coats.
He deposited his haul 10 the rear OF
the Ralph Brothers laundry, and
made asecond visit to the store; this
time, he was detected by Mr. vii
son, the clerk, who started back to
see what he was up to. The negro
walked out of the door with Mr..
Wilson ln-pursuit, who gave chas
and ran him across the line into
Texas, where he lost sight of him,
or at least did not follow him, as he
did not see the negro with anything
n his hands and supposed he had
not taken anything On returning
to the store, however he missed
the coats and made a search foi
them, with the result of finding
them as above stated The coats
we're valued at $94
Merchants should keep their bacl
doors closed'on occasions of parades
for thieves are always looking foi
chances of this kind.

MINING MATTERS IN AND
AROUND PIOCHE,

There are a good many people in
Lincoln County who will tell you
that the mines of Phoebe are Ding out.
Now we do not believe any such pro-
position, at all. The fact of the mat
ter is, that all work that has been
done in and around Phoebe the past
year or two, shows that there is min
eral there and plenty of it.
We visited the Poorman's mine
two weeks ago and found them hoist
ing as fine galena ore as one would
wish to look at and had shipment
almost ready, Messrs. Lloyd and
Cook had eight men working under
ground and seemed satisfied with the
result. The same gentlemen have a
lease on the Alps mine and expect to
to work on that mine, very shortly,
that has turned out upwards of 81,
900, 900 of lead and silver.
In visit to the Pacific Tunnel we
followed the tunnel 1900 feet, then
turned 400 feet to winze, down
which we went 80 feet, where drift
about 20 feet encountered body of
ore, probably the best second-clas
ore ever struck in the mine. The
boys also have streak of galena
from 6 to IL inches wide on one side
OF the ledge. that goes up in the
hundreds. Those who staid with
the proposition to work out unpaid
wages have made success of the
work, have made wages, all expenses
and are slowly getting their back
wages. Their work on this PROPOSE
ton shows that there is good money
in the camp, if worked economically
and carefully, and there is no doubt
of there being immense bodies of ore,
that will pay to work.
Capitalists are getting control OF
the best mines there, and as they are
connected with the Utah & Pacific
railroad, the branch from Glover
Valley Junction will surely be run
into Phoebe, which will make the old
camp boom again, probably not like
the '7O's, but good healthy boom
| just the same.
The mines at Bristol and Comite
are also looking we'll and being ex
tensively worked, all of which helps
"The Old Town"
With the advent of the railroad il
the connty, Phoebe, like all the res
of the county will Gorge to the from
again and, as the railroad is now
foregone conclusion, all prepare fo
and help to push this prosperity t
its limit. LIONEL.

The winning smile of Congress
man Mcguire of California is the ad-
miration of the entire House. Moth
ing ever happens to make Judge
Mcguire abandon that smile. Even
the tyranny of Speaker Reed does
not drive it away; and no member of
the Honse has ever yet devised a
shaft of satire SO sharp that when
hurled at the rotund Californian it
will make him forsake his smile.
Mr.. Mcguire sometimes wants to
make speech upon the floor of the
House when Mr.. Reed does not want
him to speak. The result of this is
that Mr.. Mcguire does not speak, but
he never gets angry about it. When
lie rises in his place and shouts,
"Mr Speaker" and Mr.. Reed re-
cognizes some other gentleman, Mr..
Mcguire does not clench his fists,
as do some other members upon
such occasions. He simply smiles,
gathers up the skir4s of his Prince
Albert coat, sits down and twirls his
thumbs contentedly. Nothing ever
disturbs him; he is one of the few
Congressman who evidently believe
that life is too short to allow spend
ing much time in an angry frame o
mind.-Bulletin.

All advertising authorities agree
that it is the persistent advertiser
who "gets there" Charles Austin
Bates hits the point exactly when he
says: "The very fact that only a few
merchants are wise enough to adver-
tise in dull seasons, make it all the
more profitable for those who do.
You are there when others are not.
1t gives you greater prominence. 1t
will make your advertising in busy
times much more effective" Again,
on the same topic, he says: "More
than half the business houses in the
country would be ahead if they
would shut up for three months in
summer. But they don't do it. Why?
Because they can't afford to. The
people would forget them. 1t is the
same way in advertising. Think
about it.-Advocate.
