SIN FEET OF COPPER.

The local management of the Savan- nic company copper properties on the line between Arizona and Utah is eX- ulting over the news which reached it yesterday. and which indicates the presence of six feet of ore of com mercial quality a a depth of 95 feet in the shaft. According to the informa- tiOn, which came by the way of St. George, the new body was encountered last week, and compares favorably with that which has been coming at gradually lessening intervals upon tn s market. Some of these lots have been sold on controls showing as much as i5 per cent copper per ton, and with six feet of it. a splendid record should be made the remainder of the year. The company has two more carloads of ere now on the road to market. and every thing looks favorable to an increased prOduction.-Los Angeles Herald.

ALL BUT PERISHED
Experience of Three Men On the
 Desert Near Fl Paso.

Word has reached Fl P&so of the all from Alamogordo to Fl Paso on bi- cycles through the alkali deserts. Three men are said to have left Alaniogordo Thursday night. Friday morning about 10 o'clock d man on wheel rode to Goes Wells and asked that aid be s=nt to two persons who were famishng on the desert Mrs. Coe immediately sent her 10-year-old boy on horseback with water to the furnishing men. On the way the boy met one of the party, who was crawling along the road and trying to get water. After quenching the famishng mans thirst. the boy he,ped the sufferer to bestride the horse, and together the boy and traveller reached Goes before dark. Men at the ranch went at once to rescue the other victim and found him in convulsions and al most dead. Stimulants were adminis- tered and after they had worked over him for hours, he was able to be moved and was also taken to the ranch where Mrs Coe cared for them and nursed them back to strength. The two men, who so nearly lost their lives. had brok- en wheels.
 The desert on which the unfortunate men were stranded is about thirty miles from AlamogOrdo and fifteen miles from Goes Wells. The distance is about eighty miles from the ranch to Fl Paso. but the party would have covered the worst part of the road had they been able to get as far as Goes Wells. One of the men is known to be Prof Herbert R. Cooke. who is we'll known in Fl Paso as a court stenog-
