 The first place visited was the Bul- lard mine. where developments are be ing carried on by Mir. Bullard- He now has about 10000 tons of copper-goll ore in sight and the mine will make an excellent producer with a shelter in close proximity. MT. Bullard has vol unteered material encoura cement to have a smelter located at this point. realizing the independent position in which such an enterprise would place him.
 The many copper properties in the Cunningham pass district were next on the list. In this district most of the miners are busy doing title work. They have some good showings and the gold values in the ores making some prom ising prospects. Developments are from ten to two hundred feet in depth, Dick Bullard having about 1000 feet of work done.
 At the Blanchard and osborn copper camp, twelve miles east of the Colorado river. preparation has been made tp open up the property on an extensive scale.

A BEAR KNUCKLE FIGHT.

Wm. Code has returned to Fairbank from a trip to the Huachuca mountains where he went in company with some mining men. Code had quite an ex- perience and narrowly escaped death at the hands of q full grown cinnamon bear. It seems the party was com ing out of a narrow canyon. when Codes companion who was some two hundred yards higher up the side of the ravine shot at a deer. and Bill in rushing up the steep mountain side, ran on to his nibs, the bear, who immediately showed fight. Coming on Code with a fierce growl, he at tempted to strike him, but Code countered the blow with his left and then making use of the famous Cor bett sidestep, he landed on the butt of Bruins ear killing him instantly. The brute was rolled down the mountain and after being dressed tipped the scales at 53O pounds. Bill is being congratulated by his many friends on his most miraculous escape.-Tomb- stone ProSpector.

THE soCoRRo COMPANY.

The Socorro Gold company has been busy this week unloading timber for their mill and mine in the Harqua Halas, sixty-five miles southwest Of town. Many of the mill timbers weighed over a ton each. so 1t will be seen that the installation of a thirty stamp mill at this distance from the railroad is no small task, to say noth- ing of the ore values necessary to war rant such an expenditure. The Socorro people have a good mine and are men who say but little. but saw wood at an astonishing rate. General Manager Witherlay has proven himself to be the right man in the right place-Wicken- burg News-Herald.

CATTLE THIEVES CONVICTED.

The examination of James R. Head and Wm. Williams, charged by the Arizona rangers with killing a steer belonging to the Cummings Cattle com pany, was held in Judge Williams court yesterday after noon. Realizing the strong proof of the rangers. they did not put up any defense. Each one was fined $500 or given the privilege of staying that many days in the county jail.
 According to the territorial laws as revised by the last legislature, the crime of killing cattle, obiiterating. removing or destroying the brand thereon, is made a misdemeanor, ex- cept where the value of the animal ex- ceeds $50. The inability to convict in the district court, where the penalty was made a felony. was the cause of this.
 The prisoners will be given a few days respite in which to raise the re- quired amount. before being consigned to the Tombstone jail-Bisbee Review.

A famous English naturalist, c. A. Mitchell, says that the speed in the flight of birds is often greatly over rated. The swift, for instance, has been credited with a speed of 15O miles an hour, and the popular imagination compares the flight of a sparrow hawk with that of a cannon ball. Independ- ent of aid from the wind, MT. Mitchell thinks, forty miles an hour is about the full speed of a good pigeon flying a long distance. The homing pigeons can be relied on to make. under fairly easy conditions. sixty miles an hour or considerably more. On a short course. a sparrow hawk can easily outfiy 2 homer, But the sparrow hawk ire quently fails to catch the smaller birds that form it's prey.

REGENT LEGAL DECISIONS.

While a notary public who is stock holder and officer of a corpora tion has such interest in the conveyance as dis qualities him from conducting the sep arate examination and acknowledg- ment of the wife of a granror to the mortgage Of a homestead to said CO., poration. the supreme court of Ala bama in the case of National Building and Loan association vs. Cunningham (S0 So. Rep, 3:;5), holds that such in- competency of the notary public before whom the acknowledgment was made, and who certified it, renders the instru- meat invalid only upon direct attack, and not when collaterally assailed. and in an action of ejectment by the mort the mortgage was made. and who pur- chased at the foreclosure sale. and claims the property, sued for under such mortgage. the invalidity of the mortgage by reason of the notary's in- capacity cannot be shown by extrinsic parol proof, and if the mortgage is otherwise valid the plaintiff is not en- titled to recover it in such action.
 Upon the trial of one charged with the offense of using profane language without provocation, in the presence of a female, the supreme court of Geor- gia, in the case of Ray vs. State (39 s. F.. Rep, 40S), holds that the accused may defend by showing that he was provoked to use the language by one other than such female. the sufficiency of the provocation being a question fo. the jury, under all the circumstances of the case.

ROOSEVELT'S INVITATION.

Whether or not it was becoming in the Lynchburg Gun club to invite Pres ident Roosevelt to join the members in a hunting frolic is a question of taste with which no outsider has anything to do. But for the sake of old Virginia hospitality and old Virginia manners, we are gratified to know that after the invitation was extended it was not withdrawn. To have done so would have been an act of rudeness bordering on brutality.-Richmond Times.

as well as decent treatment from the
bench.
Whether President Mckinley removes
Judge Humphreys or not, the latter
will go down in Hawaiian history, as
the first, and we pray he may be the
last, judge of a court of record con-
corning whom his peers, his own init
mate professional associates, publicly
and formally recorded their condemna-
ton in terms SO strong, clear and di-
rect that they must challenge atten-
ton everywhere.
Bar associations are always conSery-
alive bodies. They are composed OF
men who do not easily take offense; of
men whose profession it is to give and
take hard knocks; with whom respect
for and Difference to the court becomes
second nature. The Bar Association
of Hawaii is no exception to the rule.
1t is a body which has been used to re-
ceive courtesy from and to act with
Difference toward the court. 1t has
patience and it's confidence were ex-
hausted 1t would never, except upon
the strongest provocation and clearest
conviction that no other course was
open, have adopted the drastic resolu-
tions printed elsewhere.
The bare charges made, subscribed
as they are, by almost every prominent
attorney in the city, with the express
sions of earnest conviction of the truth
from nearly every speaker, based as
they are almost entirely on public rec
ords, are more than sufficient to abso-
lutely destroy Judge Humphreys use
fulness as judge in this country. Con-
fidence is something that once lost is
almost impossible to recover. Once
gone it is gone forever.
In the words of the Bar Association
resolution, 1.-The conduct of A. S. Hum
phreys, since his appointment to the
bench has destroyed the confidence of
this community in his administration
of Justice"
His further continuance in office can
but be hindrance and an injury to the
orderly conduct of the affairs of the
court, and detrimental to the reputa-
ton of all who attempt to hold him
there.

DECORATION DAY THOUGHTS.

and filling it with flame and uproar.
Both the, wearer of the blue and the
wearer of the gray had fought to settle
doubtful point in the organic law of
the Common Union. 1t was one that the
courts could not determine, nor the pull
pit read in the same text, nor the peo-
pie agree upon in their debates It
had to be settled by an appeal to that
tribunal Of force which has been called
the last resort of Kings. The cause was

Battles, and. in the lend judgment, pro-
nounced in the voice, of cannon, de-

Viewing the~ vast results can any

must now be seen that the success of
the Southern States would not only
have severed the Union, but eventually
have severed them. A power founded
on the principle of disuriien-the vest

not have lasted. At the first vital diff
