she started EARLY.

A martinez Of sergeant deciding TO
get married, some of his men decided
that when the happy event came off 1t
would be fitting occasion to pay back
with interest old scores, especially as
their friends decided to keep up the
time honored custom Of throwing rice
and old shoes at the happy couple.
On the eventful day when the happy
pair emerged from their quarters they
were greeted with a perfect shower Of
rice and old shoes, but one Tommy had
silly substituted big pair Of regula-
ton Butchers, which he threw with
such unerring aim that the missile
caught the sergeant just above the eye,
inhicting nasty cut.
Directly the ceremony was over the
sergeant Immediately went to the hos
pital to have the wound dressed. The
doctor. after examining the swollen and
dlscolored optic, inquired how it was
done.
"Well, sir" replied the sergeant 81

But was cut short by the doctor "a

The readers of this paper will be pleased 10 learn that there is at least one dreadful disease that science has been able to cure in all it's stages and that is Catarrah. Halls Catarrah Cure is the only positive cure now known to the medical fraternity. Catarrah being a constitutional dis ease, requires constitutional treat ment. Halls Catarrah cure is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby destroying the found ations of the disease, and giving the patient strength by building up the constitution and assisting nature in dcIog it's work. The proprletors have so much faith in it's curative powers. that they offer One hundred Dollars for any case that it fails to cure Send for list of testimonials

EsooUR ,GE THEM.

Every little while some news paper in Arizona makes a "roar'
 about the rest of the press boom
 ing" "wildcat" mines. The las one to register "roar" is the Globe Times; and yet any pros, pector who goes into Globe with a buoyant hope that his prospect hole will turn out a mine, will receive kindly notice in the Times, coupled with wish that his fond anticipations may all prove true. And this is as it should be. It is on the illusions of hope that the prospector and the country news paper usually feed. With very few exceptions mines do not pay from the grass roots; some of the best and biggest mines in the country have been turned down by experts as worthless, yet after ward turning out millions; and every mine that is paying today has passed through the wildcat stage. So if newspapers waited for mines to come to a paying basis before giving them favorable men ton, the mining columns in all the Arizona journals would be some what attenuated. We all know that not every prospect turns out mine, but it don't help to make good mines of prospects that may so turn out by deriding the antici- pations of their owners, or keeping silence anent their existence. En- courage the prospector in his hope, and he will keep at it until his mine is demonstrated to be of value, and producer-if the ore bodies are in the ground. Discourage him and he lets go, perhaps just when success is within bis grasp. And whose duty it is to encourage such "hopeful cusses" more than the newspaper man, who is usually the most "hopeful cuss'' of all. If he wasn't he would follow some other calling.

 enheit. Tests and experiments have
 demonstrated that in every IS
 pound of slag hot from the furace there is an efficiency in steaming power equal to that in one pound of coal, and it has been long recog- nized that any method for utilizing all that immense energy in a big smelting plant would be of great value.
 For some time MT. George Nit chell, general manager of the Can anea Consolidated Copper Co, and an associate, MT. Copeland, have been experimenting with slags, and they have invented an efficient apparatus, which they have pat ented, known as Mitchell & Cope lands slag steam generator" The heat energy is conserved by run ming the melted slag directly from the furnace into a huge reservoir hlled with water, the steam from which is caught and confined in boilers, or run directly to the en- zine as needed. The apparatus discharges the slag after the heat is exhausted. Three such furnaces as those in operation at La Cana nea, discharging 47o tons of slag daily would with this apparatus give sustained horse power of $500, with an initial H. P. of 800. In such plant as that at Bisbee the saving would amount to $500 daily; at Anaconda it would reach $Io,ooo.
 MT. Mitchell declares that this is one of the greatest inventions of the century, and it will revolutionize the treatment of low grade ores Saving the values indicated surely will be a wonderful accomplish ment.
