J. A. Johnson Meets His Father After
 Many Years.
From the Phoenix Republicau.J

tRrom the Phoenix Republican,
 Mir. J. A. Johnson, prominent and wealthy manager of sugar plantations in the vicinity of Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands, arrived in Phoenix yesterday morning and met his father, Mir. Will liam Johnson, whom he had not seen for many years. Together they will visit at Jerome, Prescott and other points in Arizona, and then return to- gether to Honolulu. Their meeting was an, interesting, and at the same time pat hetic one.
 Thirteen years ago the elder Mir. Johnson ca me to Arizona, suffering from asthma and in a serious condi- ton. All of his time since then he has spent in this territory and gradually has recovered his health. At the re- union yesterday the father met man in his prime. Not expecting his arrival so soon, the father did not know the son. The latter did not disclose his identity for some time, and face to face with the parent talked for a quarter of an hour, leaving his relation unknown to the elder man. Finally, after the father had exhausted the list of all the old frienGs in his memory, the son dis closed his kinship and the parent wept for joy. MT. William Johnson has been in Phoenix for several months and has made many friends here in the meantime.
 The younger Mir. Johnson believes that Honolulu is the most prosperous and promising city in the world, in proportion to it's size. He says that the population is about 10000 aud growing with marvellous rapidity. All branches of trade are represented there, the sugar industry being the chief business. Rice culture is another branch which employs many men and much capital. Japanese and Chinese labor is used almost exclusively. The cooperative plan is coming into gen. eral use, and proving most satisfactory to the employees and employers. Since Hawaii came under territorial rule there has been a tremendous increase in all kinds of business and a heavy influx of capital. The climate of the islands, MT. Johnson says, is delight ful and beautiful. There are many Arizona people there. and he is per. sonally acquainted with the Rev George H. Pierson, former pastor ot the First Methodist church, anc churches at Prescott, Tombstone and other cities in this territory. He i, also acquainted with Judge Humph reys and Mr.. Edwin Gill, formerly residents of Phoenix.

wm. P. Dunham's Great Victory.
From Gold, Cripple Creek, Coll

lfrom told, Cripple Creek, Col.l
 In our last weeks. issue we printed late dispatch recording the settle ment of the litigation between the Wilson Creek and Independence com panies. Only meagre details were in- cluded, but these have proved sub stantially correct. During the week the columns of the local press have teemed with dissatisfaction and threat ened lawsuits over the terms of the settlement. It is only right to state that most of the dissatisfaction eman- ated from those who bought the stocks purely as gamble and lost their money.
 The compromise was brought about by the formation of a new company and the allocation of shares in it among the various interested parties. The Independence T. & M. company's share in it is, comparatively speaking not very large one, as it amounts to only trife over 25 per cent of the whole. The exact figures are 656, ,25O shares.
 The new company which is to take over the properties of the Indepen- dence T. & M., Wilson Creek consolid- ated NJ. & M., etc., is known as the h. dependence Consolidated Gold Mining company. It has a ca pitalization oi 2,5O0,0 shares of par value of $l each and has been incorporated under the laws of Wyoming. The new com pany will have no stock treasury re- serve, all of the shares having beer distributed among the owners of tht various interests invoked, and as pay ment for the debts that have beer contracted in carrying on litigation and as commission for the compromis' having been effected.
 The Independence T. & M. compan, retains it's cash in the treasury, amount ing to about $50, GOO. and receives 1 further sum of cash sufficient to enahl

Why So ManxYouna Men Fail.

"One trouble with many young men
 who start out in business is they try to do too many things at once," says
 Hetty Green, "the richest woman in America" in the June Ladies Home
 Journal: 1.-The result is that they don't know as much,as they ought to about any one thing, and they nat urally fail. The trouble with young men who work on salaries is that they are always afraid of doing more than they are paid for. They don't enter into their work with the right spirit. To get on and be appreciated young man must do more than he is paid tc do. When he does something that his

HE FOUGHT WITH HANSON.
A Participant in the Famous Raid Stopping
 in Phoenix.
From the Phoenix RepubIican.l

IT rOlH tn6 fnOeulA hepuDlcou.l Mr. A. J. De Silva London mining engineer, is in the city, having come to the territory in the interest of the Min ers' Trust Company of British Colum- bia, looking up copper. Mir. De Silva was in South Africa long time with the British and South African Mining company and participated in the Jami- son raid. He left the country soon after that unfortunate event. He was well acquainted with John Hays Ham, mond, the American engineer, who also left as soon as possible after the Boers decided not to kill him aad turned him loose, Mir. De Silva also knew Dr. Jamison welland said that the raid was undertaken with the full knowledge, consent and approval of that three-eyed English gentleman, Mr. Joseph Chamberlain, who had secretly guaranteed it British support as soon as it was well under way, As all the world knows, it never got fair start, but was cut off in its youth and beauty. Mir. De Silva was asked how many of the 500 men engaged in this raid imagined it could possibly succeed; how few of them understood the warlike character of the Boers and their deadly marksmanship, of which an exhibition had been made as late as in 1884. There was great confidence, Mir. De Silva said, throughout the whole expedition, especially in the American contingent of 200, made up of the bravest dare-devils on earth. They were skilful and fearless gamb- lers and did not hesitate to deal iu amalgam, knowing the punishment that would be visited upon them if they were caught and they were more frequently caught than not. Their headquarters were at the American hotel in Johannesburg and it was there that the plans for the raid were brought to completion. Though these Americans feared neither fate nor death and inspired the expedition with confidence. they knew little about war, nothing at all about Boers and even made the English forget what they had painfully learned ten years before.
 The raid was planned with the great est secrecy. The Boers had received no intimation of it until it had passed over the border, but then they acted with the greatest promptitude. The expedition came to an end at Cliveden. Forty of the raiders died in minute, and those who could get away did so.
 'How many Boers were there?" Mir. De Silva was asked. "Wc thought there were about million," was the reply though we afterwards learned there were only thousand. It was like I lately wrote London friend about Arizona: "A creeping thing, misses or rattles from every bush.' Mir. De Silva believes that South Af- rica is the greatest mining country in the world and "when this cruel war is over," he will go back and start in where he left of, to help Dr. Jamison whip Kruger.

Later the. stockholders can get their stock ex- changed for that in the new company on the basis of 525 shares for every 1000, or 5219 per cent of the original.
 Another point secured by the In- dependence T. & M. company is re- lease against it andits shareholders for any past extraction of ore or dividends paid. The negotiations have been under way during the entire month of July, and. were finally brought to a head by the Reed F. Hamlin Invest menf company of Colorado Springs. The directors of the Independence T. 6 NJ. company took a very strong stand for as large a proportion of the new capital as they could secure, and it was finally upon the urgent ad- vice of all the attorneys who have had charge of the various law suits, that 2 trade was closed up>-
 A letter of advice from the attorneys of the Independence T. $ NJ. company reads as follows:
 "To the Independence Town and Min
 ing company:
 "Gentlemen-Referring to the pro- position of this date, made to you by the Independence Consolidated Gold Mining company, for the purchase of your property, we would respectfully say:
 "We are familiar with the litigation now existing and threatened, affecting your titles, which litigation is of a very serious character.
 'The proposition submitted is in tended to compromise, and finally terminate, all litigation, and after consideration of same, and in view o1 the facts affecting the controversies, pending and prospective. we would say that in our opinion it is to the in terest of the Independence Town and Mining company, and of its severa stockholders, that said proposition o1 purchase be accepted.

York and California at the same time,
there are large geographical gaps be-
tween these sections that seem to take
no particular notice of them. am Of
the opinion that the coming General
Conference has some surprises In store
for us. II there has been manifested any
real interest in any particular set or
class of candidates, the balance is in
favor of that class who has been before
the church for episcopal honors at
other times. Among this honorable
and worthy class, 1 might mention
James NJ. Townsend of Cincinnati A
most worthy man; honest, sincere and
true to his brethren, even to fault. |
do not think J. nj. Townsend could
ever be less than J. M. Townsend pure
and simple, even was 1t possible to
make him arch bishop. Open, frank,
big hearted, always busying himself to
find the distressed little men to COM
fort them. Ifyou have wandered away
to yourself to brood over YOU troubles,
be seems to be able to find you as by
instinct, and with him carries sum
shine and cheer; he makes you feel
better; he makes you feel that there is
still something to live for, to hope for.
Make him bishop and the life of
every man will be safe in his hands.
Do the right thing and have no fear if
J. NJ. Townsend should fortunately be
Sour bishop. Let the General Con
ference make just and honorable Sc
lection and he will be ene of cur next
bishops. Then Of the younger men,
there lumes up that astute scholar,
that brilliant thsologisn and author in
the person of DR.. 81. T. Johnson. Make
him bishop and the church and world
will acknowledge 1t as a triumph of
the best jud gment.

nToWNsEND FOR BISHOP.

Evansville, Ind, Special-With the
approach of General Conference there
saeus to be an intense anxiety-a breath.
,ess interest regarding candidates for
episcopal honors unmarked by most If
snv previous General Conference. There
oan he no doubt that some of the candi-
dates have wider popularity in cer-
tain sense of the word, and yet re
strietsd in another sense. That is to
say, Judging from newspaper articles,
that while an apparently popular
candidate may be indorsed in New
