UP IN THE CLOUDS.
The Danger in Reaching High Elevations
 Above the Ground.

The highest ascent ever made by man was the balloon trip made last summer by Jacques Balsan and M. Goddard, who were enabled to reach a point 22,400 feet above the surface. They were, however, successful in at taining this height bv the use of bags of oxygen, which they carried with them and which they breathed con stantly after reaching 10000 feet. They began to feel the effects of the great height at 1S,OOO feet, and at 2O.- l50 feet Mir. Balsan was prostrated and was who'll y unable to help him self. His companion was able to stand the rarified air for longer time and he secured the bag of oxygen which greatl y relieved them both. At 2l, l,250 feet the cold was intense. and at 22,4OO feet they were both in great pain and just barely able to perform the operations which started the bal loon on the descent.-Patent Record,

VAL VERDE SHELTER.

The report that the above reduction works, which are located near Huron, are to be operated, is creating good deal of interest in mining circles of that section, and the statement is made that if such is to be realized, the thousands of tons of ore laying on the dumps of mines in that immedi- ate locality will find a ready market, and that the starting up of the plant will stimulate mining materially all around that section. The Val Verde is complete work so far as it goes, and with so much activity prevailing in its neighborhood as is noticeable today, and the great amount of ore laying on the surface of hundreds of claims that cannot be handled under present conditions, the operation of this smelter would be the means of immediately thousands of dollars among miners, and which money would go back into claims again. We trust that this plant will assume real existence, and that its periodical spasm of starting up is passed.

AN UNEXPECTED STRIKE.

About ten days ago work was start ed on the Midnight Rambler mine, situated on the Black Mesa in Upper Big Bug, with apparently no values in sight. A tunnel was started to the east of an old tunnel which had been worked in the pioneer days of Yava- pal county, out of which it is said a great deal of money has been taken. After running the new tunnel only a few feet the vein was encountered, which shows pay streak of two feet, which averages S75 per ton in free gold. Some of the gold will run into the thousands, the quartz of which sparkles with gold. The old timers who knew of this property in the early days and who have worked in it say that it is the making of one of the best gold mines in Arizona. D. E. Dawes, B. H. Gray and Ed. Block are the fortunate owners, and from all reports that come in they certainly have a right to be elated over their good luck. The gold is of a high grade, worth a
 little over S19 an ounce.

ANOTHER OIL SECTION.
Yuma County Comes Along With a Big
 Excitement.

A special dispatch to the Phenix Gazette from Mohawk, in Yuma county, says the oil excitement be- tween Texas Hill station and Mohawk still continues. Every foot of land has been located south of the Gila river, extending south to s. P. rail road and up and down the river for a distance of 15 miles. Locations are row being made opposite the strike on the north side of the river. Large tracts of land are being located at Rateman flat, thirty miles east on the Gila river. The greatest excitement prevails. It is estimated that in the Texas Hill and Mohawk field there has been over S0,0O0 acres located. Oil experts of various companies are on the ground and anxious to locate any vacant ground they can get hold of. Local parties have gobbled up a good share of the locations, and now outside parties must take what they can get.
 Several companies have been form ed and incorporated for the purpose of developing their properties. If oil is struck the location will make it very valuable as it is only few miles to the s. P. railroad. It will also be a great thing for the railroad company, as they are putting in oil burners on their engines and are also using oil on the roadbed. Everyone seems san grine of success and that oil will be found at a reasonable depth.

THREE SUNDAY RAIDS.
Second Precinct Police Take Action
on Citizens Complaints.

Sunday was an eventfui day at the Sec
| ond precinct station. the police of which
| raided during the morning number OF
| houses upon which they had been keep
| ing their eyes for some time.
For the past three months Lieutenant
Bvrnes has been receiving complaints
from citizens relative to three different
houses in the northwest section OF the
city. which were occupied by negroes.
The citizens in their letters to the lieu
tenant complained of the Sunday actions
of the inmates of the houses and asked
that the police take some step toward
an abatement of the nuisance
Early yesterday morning Lieutenant
Brynes reached the station and almost
Immediately the plans for the raids We're
made. All men on the reserve force were
awakened and Lieutenant Byrnes. accom-
panied by three sergeants, Sprinkle. LYDIA,

LOCAL DETECTIVES ACTIVE.
Mysterious Movements at Hendquar
ters Arouse Curiosity.

Unusual excitement prevailed about Po-
lice Headquarters last night Detectives
came and went, in a mysterious manner.
there were conferences IN private, and
even Captain Boardman left his desk on
two occasions, and hurried over to the
Pennsylvania depot. apparently on Sc
cret mission. At the depot stood Detec-
tives Helan and Reynolds, and toward
midnight they Were joined by Sergeant
Carter, night inspector of detectives.
Three reporters watched the detectives
and incoming trains, but nothing came of
it all. Early in the night, it is known
that Captain Boardman talked to po-
lice headquarters in Philadelphia, over
the long distance telephone. and later he
had a chat with Baltimore officials No:
long afterward Sergeant Carter hastened
over to the railroad depot, apparently in
search of Detective Hewlett. Even later,
just before 8 o'clock, Detectives Helan
and Reynolds appeared at the depot and
went down into the train shed. 1t was
learned that all New York trains We're to
be watched, and this was done until after
midnight. The detectives noted every ar
rival on the various trains walking down
the long train shed and meeting the pas
sengers as they left the cars
During the early night hours Captain
BOardman was twice at the depot, and
talked with his detectives Even after
he had gone home, and as late as IL
o'clock, Sergeant Carter hastened from
Headquarters to the depot. and remained
an hour with Detectives Helan and Rey-
nolds, while two trains from the North
arrived. No arrest was made, and appa-
rently the detectives were disappointed.
Before midnight Captain Boardman said
over the telephone that nothing at all un-
usual had occurred. He even stated that
the detectives We're not in search of any
particular individual, and added that he
visited the depot on a minor private mat
ter.
On the other hand, one of the detectives
said to "A reporter that ii had been ex-
pected that somebody" would arrive in
the city last night. The detective said
he could not divulge Information as to
the name or business of the stranger.
Altogether, the whole matter was envel-
opod in mystery. 1t was suggested in one
quarter that word may have Geen received
of the coming of one or more Anarchists
possibly connected in some way with the
tragedy at Buffalo. All over the country
the Anarchists are believed to be stirred
up, because Of the attempt on the life of
the President and it is known that for
several days the police here have been
posted by officials elsewhere of the move
ments of various lawless societies

zens. Coleman was taken unawares il is
SAID, and d number of men and women
Were caught in the dragnet together
with a case of liquor. The patrol wagorI
was summoned, and Coleman and the in
mates were removed to the station, where
Coleman and Richard Stewart were both
locked up, charged with keeping an un-
licensed bar. the others being released to
appear as witnesses against the alleged
proprietors in court this morning.
In the meantime Lieutenant Byrnes ac-
companied by Sergeants Sprinkle and Ly-
da hurried several doors down the street
to the home OF Rachel Willis, eolored I23l

pursuit, and going into an alley forced
an entrance through the rear door The
unexpected and startling appearance of

hasty arrival of another detachment Of !
Dluecoats, created intense Excitement.
among the negro inmates, and in a few
minutes everything was excitement.
frightened negroes ran from one door TO
another seeking a chance to escape, but
found themst Ives hemmed in by the cor
don of bluecoats. The alleged propEie
tress, Rachel Willis il is said. became SO .
frightened tnstt grabbing up a case o.
beer, she ran up to the last floor and
mounted the roof. Several bluecoats were
standing in the front and rear yards at
the time, and presently bottled beer be-
gan to rain upon them
Upon gazing aloft they beheld the en-
RACED woman busily engaged in making
targets of them. Policemen Evans and
Forteney quickly sprang up the attic lad
der and seized the woman. while the vast
crowd howled with delight at the sight
Of the neglected fluid flowing into the
gutter. Another call was sent in for the
patrol wagon and the Willis woman and
her guests We're speedily placed within
the vehicle and driven to the station
house. where all except the Willis wo-
man We're released against whom
charge of keeping an unlicensed bar was
entered.
Not wishing to lose time after having
disposed of their last case. the policemen
ran hurri.-ly to the home of Joe James,

street, where. with little ceremony. the
front door was forced oren and Mr.. James
and his visitors We're quickly coraIled.

before the District COURTS She stated
that she came from the South, but did net
say from what State. Down there, she
said everything she had was taken from
her and she was compelled TO live in the
streets She said that she was subjected
to the same kind of treatment in Balti-
more where she stayed for few days
before coming here. In little black bag
which the woman carried Policeman
Sears, who arrested her, found very
dangerous looking knife and : pair of
scissors. When arrested she refused to
give her name or even to walk to the
patrol wagon which had been sent for
and she had to be lifted bodily into the
vehicle before she could be sent to the
House Of Detention.
While there are no new developments
in the Bonine case, still the approaching
trial of Lola Ida Henry BoniHe, now
under indictment for the murder of
James Seymour Ayres, jr., at the Ken
more Hotel on May Is last, is an every
day subject of discussion among the
members of the local bar. A great deal
of the evidence which viii be offered at
the trial is already familiar to the public.
There is more, however. which is known
only to District Attorney Gould and one
or two of his assistants. This was de-
veloped during the presentation of the
case to the grand jury. What the weight
Of this testimony is is not known. 1t is
generally believed. however. that Mr..
Gould has something up his sleeve
which he will draw down at the trial and
which will materially affect the result.

thirteen-year-old boy, who. it is alleged,
because he had trouble at home, left his
parents shortly after o'clock last even

The father of the youth at once reported
the boys actions To Captain Boardman,
and at rOll-call the detectives were in
