Globe to Flagstaff.

Several prospectOrs were in Globe this week from the TOnto mining re- zion. The mining industry of that section is revealing many promising deposits, but a lack of transportation facilities almost precludes the early opening up of that rich district and but little headway will be made in mining matters in the Tonto country until d railroad shall have been con. structed through that mineral and timber region. The necessity for such roadway is made manifest with each succeeding day, and the time is not far distant when such line will connect Globe with northern Gila county, making connections at some point on the Santa Fe Pacific, most likely at or near Flagstaff. There is uow in the field representative of d syndicate wbO has an eye on this enterprise and if the proper encouragement is held out and the future is as promising as it would appear, the line will soon as- sume definite shape.--Globe Times.

Introduction of Windows Appropriate In Connection With the
 Church.


 Bishop Granjon, who is in his prime, has shown great activity since his ar rival here to take the high position in church matters relating to affairs in Arizona and the changes he has ef- fected are quite conspicuous, notably the beautiful windows which the Elan agan- -Bledenweg company of Chicago furnished. Yesterday MT. w. C. Bled- enweg. who was assisted by Mir. Web- ster, of Tucson, finished the placing of the windows. after two weeks labor. Certainly the windows are very att tractive and must command the atten- tiOn of art cOnnOiseurs. There are ten windows which measure 66xl62 inches. The Rose window is g feet iu diameter: the three 'crucifixion win dOws 44xllO: three of the trinity one 44xll8 and two 44x9O: assumption the same; four above the last 44xl56; St. Peter and St. Paul each 56xl62, twelve clear story windows 8Sx96; eight tower windows 38xll6: eleven transOms. Appliances are attached by which ven- tiIation is secured with little effort. The windows were donated as is shown below:

 The areas excluded in this order are intended to include those portions of the reserve winch are within the drainage basins of the Verde River and have such degree of slope as would subject them to danger of serious washing in case the vegetation were destroyed by sheep grazing. The more level plateaus sloping toward the Verde are not included in these areas.
 The above described boundary line is represented in green upon the ac- blue print map of the re- serves.
 In order that those desiring to graze sheep in said reservation may not be delayed in taking their sheep into that portion of said reserve hereby opened to grazing, you will at once instruct the forestry officers fin charge Of the said reserves that applications will be received on the same forms used for that purpose last year and that if said applications are presented in proper form to said officers before the lst of April, the sheep will be permitted to enter on or after April l and the ap- plications can be forwarded for your action and that of the department

ternational trade which will prob
ably be the result of the acquisition
by the United States of the Danish

Britain, as commanding the highway

undoubtedly be established there. It
will be interesting to recall that when
the United States senate amended the

some compensation to Great Britain.

Paris, Dec. 3I.-Advices from the
ports say the gale in the channel and
along the northwest coast ragged with
extreme violence and that a number
of fishing smacks and ~coasting vessels
have been wrecked. Nine fish boats
have been stranded near Dunkirk and
three of them will prove total wrecks.
Their crews were seen clinging to the
rigging, but the majority of them were
beyond reach of the rockets. A life

fishermen, but ten of them persisted.
A brig was totally lost on the Stables

told interesting stories of camp life.

mighty tough predicament for a lot
of young men who had left business
and everything else in a burst of pa
triotic enthusiasm, and expected to
get into a scrap in short order. The
men worked every wire they could to
get their discharges, but it was at a

Quay forces. William 4. Marshall, OF
Allegheny, was the choice of the Quay
forces for speaker, while the demo-
Gratis and anti-Quay republicans were
lined up for Gen. William II. Koontz,
Of Somerset, anti-Quay republican.
The membership OF the house is 203,
there being a vacancy in the Sixteenth
Philadelphia district. OF these 1S4 are
republicans and 40 democrats.
Senator Snyder, of Chester county,
was the choice Of the Quay faction for
president Of the senate, and was elect
ed by a vote Of SO to IS for Senator
Nidler (dem.), Of Cumberland. After
passing the usual routine resolutions
and appointing committees to wait on
the governor and the house with the
information that the senate was or
ganized and ready for business, a re-
cess was taken until four p. m.
In the house the proceedings began
with the formal swearing in of the
members, after which the roll call
showed three absentees. Nominations
for speaker being in order, the names
of Mr.. Marshall and Gen. Koontz we're
presented. As the voting progressed.
it was seen that the vote would be
close, and it was announced as 100 for
Marshall and 80 for Koontz. Four
democrats voted for Marshall.
Col. Quay was the unanimous choice
of the joint convention of republican
senators and members held Tuesday
in the house chamber to nominate a
candidate for United States senator.
The Oskaloosa herald., 1901-01-03

The caucus was attended by 1913 leg
isistors, or four less than the num-
Der necessary to a choice in the joint
convention of the senate and house,
which will be held January 10. Three
of those present we're Messrs. Hill and
Tiffany, Of Susquehanna county, and
Mcpherson, of Adams, who absented
themselveslast night from the house
caucus and voted with the democrats
in the house Tuesday for Gen. Koontz
for speaker. Mr.. Beaver, of Juniata,
who voted with the stalwarts for Mr..
Marshall for speaker, was present, but
did not answer to his name. 1t was
stated that he will abide by the eau
Gus. Thompson, of Centre, and Halde-
man. of Montgomery, who are de-
tanned at home by illness, were
pledged by their colleagues to Mr..
Quay. This apparently gives Mr.. Quay
125 of the 1871 necessary to a choice.
The other absentees voted with the
democrats on the organization of the
house, and are classed as anti-Quay
republicans.
While the caueu was in session in
the house chamber a secret meeting
OF the anti-Quay republicans vas held
at their headquarters at the Common
wealth hotel. At the close Of the
meeting the pledge of the anti-Quay-
ties binding themselves together to
oppose Mr.. Quay's reelection was
made public. The pledge contains IS
names.
A call was issued for a caucus of
the house and senate democrats on
the evening of January Il, for the
nomination of a candidate for United
States senator. Col. James NJ. Cuff
fey, of Pittsburgh, will probably be
the caucus nominee.

Throughout the remainder Of the

About 5000 people had been received

crowd stretched four abreast beyond

are marching like the prongs of a fork,
one by way Of Sutherland toward Madness

The enemy are now ranging over immense
tracts of territory, necessitating the EN-
ployment of an army corps to deal with
them. Lord Kitchener has poured troops
into the disturbed areas. but the fugitive
