OF Rev. Meeker, c.. Cromb, Dan NJ.

ID. Audley Smith. The Reverend found
no homeless children in this section.
The object OF the society as announced
last week, is to care for and find homes
for homeless children. The society
has eight orphans at its home in Los
Angeles, for whom it desires to find
homes. The society acts under q
charter, and complies with all legal
requirements of the law before taking
the children under its care, hence
those who wish to adopt children from
the Homo have legal right to them.
The Reverend received considerable
financial encouragement for the society
while in Clifton.

Hon. Henry Hill left Tuesday last to
attend special sitting OF the district
court at Solomonville, where the cer-
torari proceedings against the board of
supervisors in the matter Of the new
road from Clifton to Morenci will be
heard. The board has been ordered
TO certify its records OF proce edings in
the matter of this road to the dis
trict court for review. The road was
built by order of the supervisors, but
it is claimed by those who are opposed
to the road that the proceedings were
irregular. Residents of Chase Creek
have put up hard fight against the
new road, on the ground that it would
ultimately mean the abandonment of
the road up Chase Creek. w. \. Place
was employed to look after the matter,
and has been making the liveliest kind
OF legal fight ever since. A new
phase developed in this muchly mud
died road matter this week, by the fill
ing of petition signed by six hundred
residents of Morenci, asking the board
of supervisors to abandon the road up
Chase Creek because it is fast filling
up with tailings from the concentrat-
ors which will be considerably increas.
ed as soon as the new concentrating
plant OF the A. c. company starts up.
This road question promises to be very
interesting before it is finally disposed

1.-THE best camp in the territory is

day. This is what he always says
whom he is questioned about Clifton.
Mr.. Crawford is regarded as truthful
man and his word must be respected.
He said that in Morenci and Clifton
and on the railroads controlled by the
two mining companies there were 1920
men employed. The two producers
shipped so tons of copper bullion Il day,
and when the y. c.. Co. at Clifton gets
to running its new plant, the shipment
would exceed 100 tons daily over the

row to standard gauge.-Star.

got the new within in position last week
and commenced to sink the shaft,
when the horse was stolen. The delay
will be only temporary, as another
animal will be secured, and the work
pushed. The shaft is now down 1875
feet and the ground has softened up, so
that five feet can be made at a shift.
Work is also progressing on the Hob
son and Bumblebee, aud all of the
properties are looking well, and some
rich ore is being taken out, which oc-
ours in stringers. Mr.. Molder and
his old time partner, Mr.. Jenkins,

with results so far, and are quite con-
fident that they will uncover some
good bodies of ore with the money
they now have in the treasury.

The exports of copper for May were
more than double the quantity shipped
in April OF this year. Tie exports,
however, were not as heavy as they
were in May, 200. The export in
May, 1901, was 1920 tons, as COM
pared with 1850 tons in May, 1900.
1t is evident that the exports of copper
for 1901 will be greatly less than 1900.
