petitors three are in institutions out
side of Scranton and five in our local
college and conservatory. The regret
manifested by the contestants last
year that there We're not more schol-
arshps offered led The Tribune to
make contracts this year for an addi-
tonal scholarship in the Scranton
Business college and also one more in
the Scranton Conservatory of Music.
There are three therefore offered this
year in the business college, and the
winners of each of them will have IL
choice of either the commercial or
stenographic courses. There are two
scholarships in the Scranton Conser-
vatory of Music, equal in value. and
each covering the same course of in
structon in piano playing, or it's
equivalent in value.

Improvements at Cananea.

"The construction of the Bisbee road will open up one of the biggest copper fields in the world"
 This statement was made by $. E. Morse, president of the Indiana-Sonora Copper company, of Cananea.
 "Yes, indeed,' interpolated Mir. Lindsey, mining man of Nogales. "The new road will change the present condition of things around the Cana nea district very materially. Why, there are 2,500 teams working in and out of that district hauling ore out and supplies in. Some of them make as high as S25 day, and yet they do not meet the requirement of the situation. There are three smelters operating now at Cananea and the output is about 50 tons of copper per day. When this railroad is built in there and other properties are developed the output will amount to fully POO tons per day. The ore bodies are immense and practically inexhaustible. The ore runs from one to twenty-four per cent copper. It is self huxing ore and very easy to handle.
 ''In addition to the three smelters already there We have decided to put in shelter during the coming sum- mer months. This smelter will have a capacity fer treating l50 tons of ore a day and the capacity will be enlarged as we find it necessary "
 Mir. MOrss is the owner of the h. dianapolis Sentinel, one of the most influential papers in In6iana.-Tucson Star.

Miss Laube, of Los Angeles, inti' mates that she will marry Senator Clark, but the Senator's mother anC brother denies the soft impeachment Next we will hear of breach of prom ise suit. Things seem to be coming rocky for Montana Clark.-Florence Tribune. Possibly, but most of his rocks carry a high percentage Of cop per, hence the Senator will be able to worry along somehow.
 Arizona gets another black eye. One evening this week Mir. Bill Epperson called on Miss Daisy Fucker, at King man, and while moving around on chair his gun fell out of his hip pocket and was discharged, the ball passing through Miss Daisy's ankle and lodg- ing in the posterior (Bill'sl. Why can't cur society men learn to leave the hammers of their guns resting on an empty chamber, to avoid accidents of this distressing character. Or wouldn't it be still better to smash a chamber over the head Of a man who persists In "packing a gun" in unnecessary places. Florence Tribune.
 Benson is feeling happy over the success her people are meeting with in the development of artesian water. Etz & Co have just finished their well at A depth of 75O feet They have a flow of 70 gallons per minute. This we'll is located half mile below Ben son, and demonstrates that there Is an abundance of water in the San Pedro valley. All that is required to utilize it Is to bore hole deep enough and it will come up and water the land. With artesian water in the San Pedro val ley and the reform school established there and the development of the mines tributary to that point, Benson bids fair to be a center of very con- siderable growth and prosperity.-Bis- bee Review.
 Regarding the outrage committed upon Mr. Beard in Globe last week, the Silver Belt says: The unseemly affair on Broad street last night, in which indignities were offered to d nonresident of the town by a crowd of men, because his views On public question did not conclude with theirs, is to be deplored as a serious reflection upon the good name of Globe as law abiding community, and an injury to the cause which the men espOuse. This is generally supposed to be d free country, where every person is privi- legged to hold whatever opinion he 2leases on any subject or issue, so long as he does not interfere with the liber- ty of speech and lawful action of his fellow citizen. We hope that the or ganization which the leaders of last nights crowd is supposed to represent will disavow their action.

TERRITORIAL MINING NEWS.

It is reported here today that an eastern syndicate has offered S350, COG for the Bonanza mine of Wickenburg, but that the owners had refused the offer.-Enterprise.
 Word was received in Bisbee that the paymaster for the Black Diamond company had been robbed of several thousand dollars by two masked men on Thursday night.
 Mike Nugent arrived in Yuma last Friday with gold bar to the value of s45,000, representing the month $ clean up of the King of Arizona mine, which is becoming one of the big gold p"o- ducers of the coast. The King is very valuable property.-Sentinel.
 The turquoise mines at Mineral Park, give greater promise than ever to- wards making good producers of the precious stones. In addition to the Haas mino, there are now opened up and at work two others that have be- gun to produce the little blue stones.
 \ rich strike is reported in the mountains eight miles east of Pea"ce. The ore runs high in gold and silver The property is owned by Pidwill & Bagge. Several parties from Pearce went out there and located claims near the find Correspondent Range News.
 News comes from Mammoth that the old workings of the mine caved in on Tuesday last from the 750-foo level to the surface, covering space of fully one acre. Fortunately no one was iu- jured, as the ground was known to be dangerous and was not occupied Florence Tribune.
 lIThe Courier believes that no less thar 1000 miners will be at work in Groom creek and Hassayampa districts within the next eighteen months. Both districts are rapidly coming to the front as producers of the precious metals. and people are becoming inter- ested who have money enough to mine.
 It looks as though Arizona was work ing up to a big oil boom. Prescott and Tempe are both excited over oil lands adjacent to their limits, and the finest oil indications are found near both towns. There is nothing on earth that creates the excitement like an oil discovery, and Arizonians are looking forward to boom in oil in the terri tory before many moons roll away Prospector.
