WORDS OF KINDNESS.

The following is the report of the committee appointed by the bar of Prescott to draft resolutions concern ing the death of Judge H. D. StOcker: .-The bar of Prescott. Arizona, has adopted upon the sad occasion of the death of Henry D. StOcker. May 23, 1900. this testimonial of it's esteem and sorrow, to be presented to his family and to the courts in which he practiced.
 Tt is too soon. as yet. to look upon the high place occupied by Henry D. Stocker in this community as a law yer. as vacant, or to feel that his life and actions are in the past. His in fiuence upon his friends was sO deep. withaI 50 gentle. that it's spell must last throughout the entire lives of his contemporaries. The chiefeSt of vir- tues. love for humanity. was potent element in his character. No one that knew him but felt the sweet sincerity of his affection for his fellOwmen- His heart embraced all who came within his knowledge and his acts and words of Kindness. so undemonStrative as to seem unconscious. made better. kindIier men of those whose friend he  ness was ever present in his soul
 The narrow walls of his grave do not contain all there was or him. The golden rule he inviOlably regarded. Though liberal and tolerant in the eX- preSSion of his opinions. his judg- mentS were clear and positive upon all things. None could know him without prOfitins by his acquaint- ance.
 Such was the character of man whom death has taken from Us. As q lawyer his conduct was no less beautiful. Possessed of q chivalry that the present day has relegated al- most to romance. his bearing in the office and in the court room was clothed with q quiet dignity compel ling admiration and respect. DiStin> guished as a lawyer in q state where distinction means much. he kept faith fully to the traditions of professional ethics. In the larger community from which he came he had earned a repu- tatiOn as an eminent. forcible and logical speaker Neither the music of his voice. nor the manlineSS of his face and form can be forgotten soon. '-In this community. though here but a few years. he leaves behind many warm friends.
 With deep sincerity we extend to his family a sympathy made more ten der by our own sorrow.

STREETS PAVED WITH GOLD.


 While the wOrkmen who are exca, vating for the new building for John Lawler on COrteZ street were work ing this morning they ran into q strata of coarse gravel which. upon close ex- animation, fairly sparkled with fine four gold Two of the MeXicanS who Were working expressed a desire to quit their jobs and pan out the gold in the ground, but upon more closely Investigating it they thought it would not pay, for while the sand. when placed in q pan of water. shows many cOlOrS of gold, it is so extremely fine that nothing could be made out of it. The gravel is being hauled out and spread over the streets, so that it can be truly said Prescott's streets are paved, very thinly, however. with gold.
 One thing peculiar is brought out in this discovery, and that is it proves almost cOnclusively that the bed of Granite creek must at one time have been right across that locality, as the formation shows distinctly that it has been a creek bed In the course of centuries the ground has been filled in and the creek has. by washing against the foot of the mountains of bOulders, made its present bed. The strata mentioned is about twelve feet deep. which would not be very much above the present creek bed.
 It has been planned to establish service of traction engines and wagons across the desert of China to compete with the carrying business now done by means of camels. and it is stated that within q year there will be fifty engines and 5000 wagons engaged in this work.

WAGES OF MINERS.
What is Paid for Welding Pick and
 Hammer in the West.

Hammer in the West.
 Miners deserve and generally receive fair wages in the western mining state. but the wages are not uniform bv any means. The cost of living. of rent and of fuel vary at places. but the work is about all the same. hard, dan gerouS and cOnfining. In California. where all the conditions. climate. cheapnesS of breadStuffS and rent fla vOr the underground worker. they re ceive S25O for ten hours work. In Colorado S2.5O to s are paid for ten hours work. In Leadville. which has an altitude of 10000. S3 are paid, where the workings are wet. for ten hours.
 In Utah miners receive S2.j0 for eight hours work It is understood by both the employer and employees that the eight-hOur law is not acceptable in the mines The more ambitious want to work ten hours and get S3- They contend that eight hours don't keep the men occupied long enough They drift around saloons and acquire the habit of drinking more than is good for them It k also held that the ambitious miners who want to in- crease their pay by increasing their hours of labor go to other states where the conditions for making more money by days labor better suit them.
 In Montana miners wages are about the same in every mining locality. Un- dergrOund miners receive S3.jO per shift. while number of others, work ing in less labOriOus and less exposed situations. take a little less. but on the whole the Montana miner carries the blue ribbon wage scale among all the states. and the state has the best miners in the entire west. As q rule they are SoberI reliable and thrifty. Those who have families support them in good shape and educate their chil- dren at the public schools without in curing costs they cannot bear. The Montana miner though receiving maxi mum wages. is exposed to the maxi mum diScOmfOrts and dangers attend ing his vocation He treadS no prim roSe-lined pathway to the depths which take him to his daily labOr.-WeStern Mining World.

FLAGsTAFF-GLOBE RAILROAD

Mir Boucher. railroad builder for the Vanderbilts. was in town last week. accompanied by his civil engineer. looking over the possibilities of putting in a railroad from Flagstaff to Globe, via Jerome and Payson. The road would surely be great thing for the whole country along the projected route. The road would pay from the start The lumber and timber traffic from the AIOgOllOn mountains to Jer- Ome would be q source of great profit to the road With a road down the Verde valley. the productive farms would raise an enormous amount of produce. Oak and Clear creeks would also load many cars with fruits. veg etables and hay. The great Tonto basin. with it's unlimited mineral re- sources, would come to the front with great strides. Mir. Boucher seemed favOrably impressed with the propo- sitiOn. and we will hear more from the gentleman later on.-JerOme Re porter.
