BIG BUG DISTRICT
Rich Mineral Veins and Rapid Devel-
 opment Work.

The following interesting letter from the Big Bug district is taken from the Prescott Prospect:
 We learn that MT. J. s. Johnson has acquired a half interest in the Rabbit Foot. a gold and Copper property four miles south of Mayer, located by MT. w. H. o. Alexander last July. The main quartz lead on this property is over five feet wide. showing consider able free gold on the surface. Near the hanging wall, about three feet from the surface. d ten-inch streak of green carbonate was struck, running 36 per cent in copper. MT. Alexander brought in some most beautiful specimens of green carbonate of copper. with large flakes of free gold scattered through it and streaked with bands of bright cop per glance. Development work is now going on.
 Tha Cypress has her new steam hoist ready for work. Two cars of $50 copper ore are ready to ship, and several cars of a slightly lower grace ore are now on the dump. The main shaft is now 155 feet deep. in very fine ore, with plenty of water to run machinery. Messrs. Mayer and Thornton wear C very bright smile.
 On the south extension of the Cy- press Messrs. Thornton and Kingsley are now sinking a shaft, which ut 50 feet shows good copper ore. few miles north of the Henrietta they have this week bonded a claim to an east ern party who has contracted to do over $5.OOO worth of development work at once on said claim.
 The Buuternut has recently shipped two cars of high grade copper ore. One Of the men told me that they are now working in the POO foot level in a very large body of soft ore running over 20 Der cent in copper and carry ing scme gold.
 AIessrs Wiclls and Bowen have been doing their asse szment work on the Morning star group, adjoining the Me Cabe. It is a gold property. They have one 9O-foot tunnel. one 60-foot tunnel and a 40-foot shaft on the prop erty. All openings show good ore.
 We visited las, week the new tunnel on the Copper Queen, four miles north east Of Mayer. Mr. Johnson has four good claims here on the Agua Fria river. The tunnel is now in over 60 feet and the work is being pushed rap idly. It is expected to cut vein No. l in about l25 feet at a depth of 115 feet, vein No. in about 225 feet at a depth of 200 feet. and the main vein in about 3O0 feet at a depth of over 900 feet Over 20O feet of development work has been done on this property outside of the new tunnel now being run. The three veins have been opened in, T,ll T d a high grade copper ore carrying con siderable gold. The top of the ridge is crowned by an immense dyke which is in many places painted green with cop per carbonate. Some rich copper glance has been shipped from this property The main vein IS about twelve feet in width. The other leads are from four to ten feet in width.
 The Howell Mining Go. shipped car cf ore a few days ago from shaft No. l

on the Iron King. They are running
 day and night shift on the crozs-cut
 at 100 feet in the shaft. They are also drifting on good ore at 50 feet. A 4O- foot tunnel near this shaft shows up a very large body of low grade gold and silver ore. running from s to S2O dollars per ton. Shaft No. is down
 8 feet. the last five being in good ore.
 The shaft is being pushed down as rap id',, as possible. We saw some good copper glance on the dump al shaft No. 3.
 The Terre Haute Mining company secured five copper claims near here this summer. They have their assess ment work all done and are much pleased with the showing thus far. they expect to run a 4O0-foOt tunnel on one Of their claims to cut the main ledge at a depth of 300 feet.
 Dan Bowen's Copper King group, To- cated about one and Cne-half miles west of Mayer, is one of the best pros poets in the district. Mir. Bowen has , owned these claims for the past ten years. The croppings show copper for
 the full length of three claims. The ledge is over 100 feet wide and pros poets well in gold and copper the en- tire width, and recent development has been with very satisfactory results. The property is large one and will make Dan Bowen a fortune some day.
 The Midland Realty company are down over 70 feet in shaft No. on the Copper Ark. They have a fourteen foot vein of quartz mineralized from
 wall to wall. carrying gold. silver. cop per and lead. It looks like a big pro-
 position. The ScCvoc is showing up quite we'll In fact all of their five claims are quite desirable properties
 The Kensington Realty complc,- of Kansas City have been quite fortunate
 in getting hold of ten choice gold and copper claims. They have completed their assessment work in good shape.
 Rumor has it that they are to put down one shaft to the depth of 300 feet. Hope they will. That is the kind of prospecting which pays.
 The manager of the Copper Realty ! company showed me some fine speci-
 mens Cf ore taken from their proper ties. They have five gold and copper properties nsar Mayer which are hard had to bcat.
 The Kaw Mining company struck
 water this week in their shaft on the Copper Plum at 80 feet. They have
 some per cent copper ore along with il, carrying a little gold and silver. The Blue Belle. some five miles east of Mayer, now has over 500 feet of de- velopment work, with an abundance of
 good pay ore at every poin-. Superin- tendent Haggott informs us that in the near future the force on the mine will be increased. there being now if teen men employed. To both machine men and chuck tenders $3.50 per ten hour shift is paid. The company is pushing development work wioh the idea of putting in a reduction plant, and
 it is the belief of everyone that the Blue Bell will maintain a plant.

PRESCOTT SCHOOLS
New Building Enterprise Planned For
 Early Completion.

Prescott, Ariz., Oct. S.-(SpeciaI Cor respondence of The Republican, "A large crowd of Republicans, with a few democrats interspersed, went out on the excursion train Saturday even ing to the republican rally and ball at Mayer. They declared upon their re- turn that they all had a rousing good time.
 The Cypress mining claim on Big Bug is considered to be one of the richest finds in the territory. as every foot of the sinking, from almost the surface, is paying for itself, and leav- ing a handsome profit besides The shaft at present is down 16O feet, and running in two feet of $6O ore-in fact the shaft at this depth is all in ore. Joe Mayer, Frank Thornton and Char lie kinsley are the fortunate posses sors of this claim, and we are told from reliable source that within the past four or five days an offer of $5O,OOO had been refused for it. It is strictly a cop per and gold smelting proposition, and the ores are being regularly shipped to eastern smelters. MT. Jack Forest, one of our brightest miner lawyers, made a personal examination of this particu- lar claim a day or two ago, and says it is really the finest showing of any property recently discovered in the vii cintSy. MT Forest is going to Phoenix tonight on business trip.
 A special school election will be held Saturday Of next week to vote for or against the issuance of $5O,OO0 bonds for the purpose of building a new high school building capable of accommoda- ting the needs of our rapidly increas- ing school population. This should be well looked into by the patrons of the schools and taxpayers of the county. as the needs are pressing and urgent for more extensive quarters. The av- craze attendance for the past month is 96 per cent, an appreciable increase over last year. In one of the primary departments. Miss Strange's room. the total enrolment up to this time is 70, which is about 23 more than for the corresponding time last year, while the second primary, under charge of Miss Edwards, has an enrolment of 6O which is about 10 more than at the same time las; year. Now, in order to relieve this stress of daily labor on the part of Miss Strange and other lower grade teachers, five of the most ad- vanced pupils from the high school are appointed as cadets who, each one in turn, serves a quarter of day until relieved by another, and this plan is working satisfactorily enough during the present insufficiency of teachers. In the high school grade there are three pupils from the Verde valley, in the vicinity of Jerome, and if the schools were capable Of additional ac- commodations there is no doubt that there would be many pupils from the surrounding camps and ranches who would be glad to avail themselves of the opportunity of a high school course, instead of having, as now to go a great distance to expensive board ing schools, when such -hOols can

be afforded at all. The judges ap pointed for this election are E. w. Wells, Dr. Pentland and J. D. Bethune. The bonds will be isued, if vC,ed for, 10 run a period of frcm 15 to 20 years. Thus, for so small an amount. $50,0O0, the additional rate Der capita of tax levied would not materially increase the present amount.
 J. W. Wilson has purchased the property on the northwest corner of Gurley and Montezuma streets, upon which stood the Kelly & Stevens building before the fire. This fine bus mess property has a frontage of 40 feet by 150 feet west to the alley on Gurley street. and the price paid for the same was S15,OOO. MT. Wilson is acquiring real property very rapidly, both homestead and business proper ty.
 X party of engineers camped just north Of the city are engaged in making the typographical surveys through this section of the country. un- der the direction of a Professor Doug las, of Washington.
 Dr. J. E. Walls and family, and MT. Tester and family, left the city today for few weeks outing on Walnut creek. The doctor will remove his household effects to ether quarters up- on his return to the city.
 Mir George Giles is making plans for removal of the Murphy buildings on the corner of Gurl5y and Cortez sereets which are occupied by Geo. Wooster, the Postal Telegraph O., E. E. Gage's office MaItindell x Horne, and the Saml Hill plumbing establishment. These tenants have been asked to va cate the premises as soon as practic- able, though in view of the scarcity of quarters at present it will be a difficult matter to get them satisfactorily re- moved very soon. The Prescott Ma tional bank proposes to put up build ing that will eclipse any previous eff fort on the part of other good citizens or capitalists in the same direction. up on th:s corner. as soon as it shall be vacated. Messrs. Morrison & Forest and Judge Eetnune today removed their office to a location further down office row. They were in the office above MartinGeu & Horne's insurance office.
 MT. Hugo Richards today com menced operations for his new ,wo- story building on the northeast corner of Gurley and Montezuma streets. and from the plans now drawn up it ap- pears that this will be one of the hand somest and best constructed of all the buildings yet put up or in process ct construction in the new Prescott. The corner will be occupied by the Shepard & Kastner Go.
 MT. and Ms. Taft, of the Sterling mine, in the Big Bug district, returned a few days ago from an extended visit to Ringhampton. N. Y. where Mr. 1aIt went fast May for the benefit of his health. MT M. :. Taft is an uncle or the Hon |. T. Stoddard and has been in the territory for the past fifteen or twenty years and during that time has acquired valuable mining interests m Yavapai county.

John Ruskin was born in London on February s, 1S19 the only son of a wealthy wine merchant, Scotchman by birth, from whom he derived in childhood a fondness for art and from whom he inherited fortune of two hundred thousand pounds. In 1886 he entered Christ's church, Oxford, where he graduated in 1S42 He first drew public attention by his Modern Paint CTS" In his work he asserted the su- periority of Turner and his school in the art of landscape painting Among other of his hest known works are ''The Seven Lamps of Architecture" "The Stones of Venice" ''Preraphaelitism l" ''The Elements of Drawing" 'The Po- litical Economy of Art" and Art of England"
 In 1853 he delivered a series of lec- lures on architecture and painting at Edinburgh was appoiRted professor at the Cambridge School of Art in 1858, and was elected to the Shade professor ship of fine arts at Oxford in 1859. He resigned that position ten years later
 Ruskin was one of the greatest mod ern masters of English prose. Of late years he lived mostly in retirement at Brentwood, in the English lake coun- try, writing and featuring somewhat. and publishing several books,
