There Is vivid hue of probability i'll
the story that the Forum wants to add the
post-office to the assets of the Home
Comfort and Foreign Improvement
company.
Two families named, respectively,
Dollar and Nickel" reside in the
same Illinois town, and, apparently, the
latter enjoys more popular respect than
the former. Nobody named Dollar"
however, lives i'll Frostburg, which
leaves the towns circulating equilibrium
undisturbed.
Titus A. Brick started the other day
for Buffalo, but, re-appearing in town a
few minutes later, explained that the
conductor misunderstood and put him off
at Jumbo.
One of the prettiest wagons in town is
the Grand Union Tea delivery. With
w. f. Noel handling the ribbons, the
combination is beauty.
Considerable adverse comment has
been made upon the conduct of couple
saloonkeepers Thursday, one of whom,
despite the funereal occasion, kept open
all day, the bitterest coming from others
i'll the same business who respected the
day.
Thirty years ago yesterday the first
type was set for the first issue of the
JOURNAL. Some men, boys then, are
grandfathers now
Rev. Henry Thomas suggests that
Council change the name of Broadway
to Printing House Lane, and this re-
minds the JOURNAL that in the same
motion the name of Water street can be
changed to EX-Trolley avenue.

The Arizona Kicker is also in trouble.
1t says
We received several complaints last week
to the effect that the Kicker was flying mighty
light on politics. They were well founded.
An e itor who is ass enough to open red
not political campaign when the country is
sweating the starch out of three collars per
day ought to be given ride on crosscut
saw. We know our gait, and when the time
comes to begin we shall be there.
Further on the Kicker remarks:
There are IA different reople who have
stopped their Kickers without explanation
during the last six weeks. Next week we shall
set out to call upon them in turn to hear their
excuses, and it is needless to add that we
shall be prepared for emergencies

of the Seine in the Bric-a-
Brac Suit.

Paris, Jan. 22.--The first tribunal of
the Seine has decided the suit of the
Count and Countess de Castellane
against Wertheimer, the bric-a-brac
dealer, by dividing the transactions
into three series. In the first it is
declared that the exchanges and pur-
chases were freely agreed to and in
good faith and, therefore, could not
now be modified.
The second series, comprising the
exchanges, is regarded as liable to
the suspicion of usury, and the court,
therefore, has appointed three experts
TO appraIse the articles, final judg-
ment being given after their report.
In the third series concerning art
works belonging to Count Boni de
Castellance, sold by Wertheimer, the
court declares the transaction holds
good, but calls on Wertheimer to sub
NIT proof of the sale in order to show
he did not realize illegitimate profit

thousands of silent people who filed
the sidewalks along the entire route.

Dense crowds, beginning at st. James
street, lined the entire route to Vic.

Mail and the front of buckingham
palace were especially t~hronged. All
along the former, from the palace to
Marlborough House, carriages filled
with ladies stood as if for a drawing
room. except hat the coachmen, foot
men and occupants were all dressed
in mourning. The police precautions
we're unusual. Men on foot and
mounted guarded almost every yard
OF the way.
The crowds waited patiently for
hours to greet their king.
The King Appears.
Finally, preceded by half a dozen
mounted policemen, the new sover-
eign arrived in a plain brougham,
which was driven very rapidly, with
the coachman and footman in their
usual gray l~iveries with mourning
bands On their arms. An
equerry was seated beside him.
The king was, of course,
dressed in the deepest and most sim
pie mourning. and carefully raised his
hat IN acknowledgment of the silent
~uncovering of heads, which was more
impressive Than the most enthusiastic
cheers. The king looked tired and
very sad. but very well.

 Wilcox News: The Black Prince Copper Go. was recently incorporated by Denver parties who have secured seven claims owned formerly by Vein * Mitchell at Johnson. They have HOW eight or ten men employ ed doing development work, with good show ingo success. Johnson is certainly booming.
 Wilcox News: Steve Upton has several men employed on some claims near the Mammoth & Republic of Johnson, under the superintendency of George w. Baker. They have struck fine ore body and are push ing development work with all possi- ble speed.
 Mohave Miner: From the Desert News we learn that the richest car. load of copper ore ever shipped from the Grand Gulch mine was sent to the smelter from that property last week. The ore returned 49,4 per cent copper and ounces in silver per ton. The main shaft on this mine is down POO feet with a winze 35 feet below that there is $500, ,000, worth of ore in light.
 Yuma Sun: The Darius Green Mining Company, which recently pur- chased the Gila City placer claims of J. B. Kelley, is already on the ground, operating, and according to reports, meeting with most gratifying success. The Gila City placers are very rich in the yellow metal, and there is no req son why, if the process be successful one, the present operators should not secure good results.
 Mohave Miner: The other day while at the top of the mountain, north of Stockton Hill we could see the blasting going on at the tur. quoise mines being operated by James J. Haas. It looked very much like business to see the clouds of dust going skyward and soon thereafter hear the faint report of the explosion. The mines are getting out beautiful gems, but it takes powder to get them.
 Clifton Copper Era: MT, Buckeley Wells, mining engineer from Boston, Mass, has just finished a thorough examination of the Shannon Copper Co.'S. great mines in this district and left for his home Monday via Denver, Colorado. He was very favorably inn pressed with the extent and value of the Shanon property. Itis understood that he represents prospective pur- chasers of a large block of the Snan non Co. stock.
 una sun: A company IS said to be preparing to begin active develop ment work on the Gold Crown group of claims at Picacho. There are eight claims in the group and they are own- ed by Captain lssac Polhamus of Yuma, Joseph Mendibles of Picacho, and number of Los Angeles parties. A S60,000 shelter is contemplated. This group is among the richest in Pi- cacho district, accordieg to the ildica- tions given by the quite extensive development work done on the Miner al Hill claim and tests made through out the various properties.

The ground was caught up and crosscut exposed eleven feet of ore with no hanging wall in sight.
