A MEXICAN MINE
In Which at Least One Arizonian ig
 Interested.

The Republican has at various times referred to a mining dispute in Sonora between w. c. Green and Lucurgus Lindsay of this territory over certain properties in the Cananea country and which was ,ately settled in favCr Of an Indiana syndicate represented by Lind say. Speaking of the organization, the Indianapolis Sentinel says:
 Tt is the opinion of Mayor Taggart that the Indiana investors who have come into the possession of copper mines in Mexico, have secured among the richest mines in the word.
 Mir Taggart, F. s. Morss and pr. Henry Jameson have just returned from the mines. and, as stated by MT. Taggart, in view of the fact that their titles are firmly secured by law, they are willing to give out detailed infor- nation. They say the entire copper out put of the world will in the future be furnished by 2 few mines and that they are in possession of one of them.
 The company which has bought the mine is composed of H. P. Wasson Hugh McGowan, Thomas Taggart, Peter H. Pernot, Samuel E. Morss, William H. Schmidt, E. L. Cothrel, and Dr. Henry Jameson of this city; Crawford Fair hanks of Terre Haute, Lycurgus Lind say of Arizona, P. and A. SandoYal, bankers of Sonora; John Mccarthy, eX- commissioner of streets, Chicago; Bra ccy Curtis of Bostcn, and others.
 Three years ago a syndicate was formed to invest in gold mining proper ties and it was the opinion of the mem bers that the Klondike wou'd prove the aI bait inv actr tr11n Perrot, a l.ineralogist well known in this city. was sent into the Klondike to explore, but he found no claims there that he would recommend as an invest ment, so he went to Lower British Col umbia, Oregon, and several northwest crn states searching for properties that he could recommend.
 While searching for desirable prop critics he came across a man by the name Of Lindsay, who owned copper mines in Mexico in the Cananae noun tains, a range Of the Sierra Madre sys- tenn in the state of Sonora.
 After thorough investigation of the property and the quality of the ore of the Lindsay claims. MT. Pernot recom- mended to the Indiana men that they purchase the prospects Six months ago MT. Lindsay came to Indianapolis Gn! prelir7inary contract was en- tered into with the understanding that the syndicate would take the property provided that after a more thorough investigation it proved to be as repre- scented.
 Samuel A. Barbour and Prof. C. NJ Stolle, two mining assayers in the en- ploy of the Hecla mining company,

were sent to test the ore. After numer- ous tests they issued a report to the members of the syndicate in which they claimed that an average of 15 per cent. of all the ore examined was pure cop per. The general average of ccpp2r i1 the ore of the mines owned by this company is per cent, or 3 per cent. greater than the yield of the mines of Arizona
 When the claims were purchased a dispute arose owe" the title, the Greene consolidated mining company claiming portion of the mines bought by the syndicate. Greene came to IndianapO- lis some ti1-e ago and attempted a compromise. All his chief propositions were rejected, but on one minor detail @ compromise was agreed upon, which made the title secure.
 The total inves tment of tie syndicat te up to the present has been about s100,- GOO. Tine syndicate now has forty men at work, and during the next year the mines will be developed, shafts will be sunk and tunnels mace, and when this is done experts will be ale to meas Ure the amount of ore in bulk
 The company is known as the Indi- anaS Sonora copper and mining com pany and it has already been incorpo- rated in West Virginia with s2,5OO,OO capital.

 "Wel?" inquired LanGis.
 ''It is to prevent hydrophobia."
 "WeIl?"
 "There is m:!liors in it.
 "Wen?''
 "I'll give you share if you will get congress to adopt it as the official hy drophoDia remedy"
 But where will the money come n?" asked Lan1is.
 The visitor whispered, confidentially, "Why, don't you see? We will collect a royalty from the government for every body that doesn't have hydrophobia."

A FRENCH GRIEVANCE.

There is gnashing of teeth in Paris over the report of the Isthmian canal commission. Much Of the Panama stock is still held there, it seems though is has been un n1erstood the con- trol has passed to New York. The Parisian grievance is pretty wei stated by Captain Nathan Appleton, formerly of Boston, who declares the American acceptance of a route thas will surely cost $200, coo. as against the Panama route, is absurd.
 The Parisians overlook a most inn portant factor, namely, the commission was given no choice in the mater
 The fault lies with the Panama com pany. which refused to make a definite proposition to the commission There is evidence in the report that all the advantages of the Panama route were appreciated by the commission and the document clearly estimates the cost of 2 thirty-five foot canal at more than $Z00, eco. In fact, the whole tenor of the report suggests that Panama might have been chosen with nearly the same un2nimity that Nicaragua was recom- nended, had the Panama company submitted a favorable proposal for the sale of it's ditch and privileges.
 Paris will recover, however. Panama is a sore topic for it. The Nicaragua recommendation merely tears open afresh the old wounds.-Pittsburg Dis patch.

SARCASM OF AN ATTORNEY.

One of the oldest members of the Baltimore bar tells this anecdote of the late Severn Teackle Wallis, as illus trating the cleverness and sarcasm of Mir Wallis:
 MT. Wallis was defending the will of a wealthy testatOr, and, as the law yers say, when the estate is large a lawyer will wrestle with a will with a will" A prominent physician was called to testify for those contesting the will. The doctor became restless under the lengthy and. exhaustive cross examination of Mir. Wallis and finally petulantly exc!aimed:
 70, MT. Wallis, l believe the testator was insane?"
 MT. Wallis kept his temper and said quietly: Doctor you are the frs per son who has ever intimatod in or out O. court that the testator was insane. Why do you say he was insane?"
 'I believe" the doctor replied, "tha; every man is more or less insane on some one subject"
 ''Is it your deliberate professional opinion" MT. Wallis then asked, "ex- pressed here in court under oath. that every man is more or less insane on some subject?'
 Yes" the doctor replied. T will say here under oath that from my reading knowledge and experience l believe that every man is more or less insane on some one subject"
 Then MT. Wallis said, in that firm tone of sarcasm for which he was noted: Doctor, hes it ever occurred to you that you are insane on the sub jcct of insanity?'
 "Immcdiatcly the doctor fired up and exclatred: But, MT Wallis, ] am not insane"
 Mr. Wallis arose and said: Doctor, according to your own sworn theory, you must be insane on some subject. I pronounce you insane on the subject of insanity"
 Court. jury and spectators laughed aloud and nothing more was said about the testator being insane.-Baltimor Sun.

SOUTH AMERICA AWAKENING.

Among the guests at ths Arlington is MT. Kenneth G. Frank, Who went to Brazil ten years ago as the repre- sentative of a New York importing house and is now in the United States for the first time since. "The South American states" said MT. Frank last night, ''are beginning to awake to the fact that they have little Part in the race of nations '-r the progress of the world, and a disposition is manifest among public men to do something to- ward the development If these s;aj ias that is warranted by their resources. If the races that settled the North Am erican continent had settled in South America, and vice versa, thcir positions in the world today would be exactly reversed. It is not in the land itself, but in the people who occupy it that makes a nation great or otherwise. and the wise men in South America know it. Individually the South American countries can never achieve greatness, but welded together they could rival any nation in the world. and there are already signs of a closer union. which I believe will ultimately result in a ma iOrity Of the states uniting under one general government, and wl,h q con- stitution similar to that of the United States. I know this is the secret hope nf many of South Americas foremost men. and. while the common people are not yet ripe for it, they will, in time
 come to realize that their interests lie in this direction. '-Washington Post.
