Il guess you'll be all right now,
said Mrs. Bennett, comfortingly. Her
naturally kind heart had been
touched by the sight of some one else
in distress, and she forgot herself in
ministering to another.

continued Mrs. barrow. I'm afraid
it will spoil your Christmas. You

almost sent "A moisture to her eyes.
But she choked it down.
You need some thing to eat" she
said, ''some tea and toast. And these
children must be half starved"
I'm afraid there amt much to

don't know as there's anything but .
little bread
well, that'll make toast"
Mrs. Bennett knew that Widow
barrow was poor. but she never had
known that the family were so desti-
tute as She found them 10 be. this
day before Christmas. Its dreadful"
she thought. as She searched the bare
cupboard. They're jest starvin'." A
moment later She was saying private
ly to her husbands: sam. you 20
home and get loaf of bread and
some of that tea. Then you get a pat
! of butter and a little ham and hurry
right back with il. They're all stary-

what ails Mis- barrow. Now you

Yes. Hannah"
: The old mare seemed to realize
that she was on an errand Of mercy.
and actually quckened her pace.

row had her toast and tea, and the
children were enjoying what to them
was bountiful feast. 1t was dark
when Mr.. ard Mrs. Bennett left for

"But there amt" answered prac-

| There was silence for moment,
then Mrs. Bennett continues:

The Mammoth Mine
Its Present Status.

Geo. P. Blair came in from Phoenix
this morning and registered at the Orn-
dorff. Mr.. Blair said that the Phoenix
papers we're mistaken when they stated
that he had been dismissed az receiver
OF the Mammoth Gold Mining Co. by
Judge Doan. The court decided in as
much az the mine and mill at Nam
moth were closed down, there was no
necessity for receiver and accordingly
the office was abolished.
The case of New York Trust Co
representing the mortgage, Detroit
party, against the Mammoth Gold Min
ing Co. Stock, the English syndicate
will be heard at Florence, November
5th. Until that is decided the mines al
Schultz and the mill at Mammoth will
remain closed down. II the case should
be decided in favor OF the company
work will be resumed immediatly or
the old Mammoth mine and on the
Collins group which will be connected
by a tunnel with the main shaft. A
pumping plant will also be installed Sc
that the ore may be taken out below
the preeent water level viii h is at 75'
feet depth. The company hope for
favorable settlement and early resump
tion.

Mechanics Strike
on the Santa Fe.

SAN BERNARDINo, Sept. l2,-Three
hundred skilled mechanics employed at
the Santa Fe shops here dropped their
tools and walked out in body yester.
day morning. The trouble is the result
OF long-standing difference between
the men and the company over the
question :.of increased pay for work dur
ing holidays. On each holiday since
Decoration day the men have petition
cd Master Mechanic Lane for time
and half pay. These petitions have
invariably been ignored by the company
and yesterday morning were accom-
panied by a notice that three hours
would be given for reply.
At the expiration of this time dele
cation waited upon Lane, but at the
Office door were informed that he was
too busy to see them. The rebuff was
quickly communicated to the men in
the shops, and in few moments 300 of
them marched out in double file. Furth-
er trouble is feared as the officials state
that no man who quit will be taken
back.
