Richard Dobson Of Lansing, Mich,
says that years ago he came across
Mr.. Gladstone chopping down q tree
near Hawarden. Not recognizing the
statesman, the globe-trotter exclaimed.
Hello, Johnny Bull You're making a
rather sorry Job Of cutting down that
tree" Mr.. Gladstone owned It would
take him An hour. Thereupon Mr.
Dobson offered to bet the gentleman q
dollar that he would fell the tree IN
twenty minutes. You're a little man
physically, but large in conceit I'm
not much Of a betting man." retorted
Mr. Gladstone. "but I'll tell you what
I'll do. my little man. III give you .
sovereign II you can chop down that
tree In twenty minutes, and II you
don't DO 1t In that time you are to cut
1t down for nothing" Mr.. Dobson
swears he performed the operation in
seventeen minutes and thirty-seven
seconds. At any rate he pocketed his
sovereign and subsequently lunched at
Hawarden.

THE PRESIDENT DECLINES.
It Would Have Afforded Him Much Pleas
ure to Spend Day in New Mexico,

Governor Otero, upon the request of
leading citizens of the territory, wrote
President Mckinley inviting and urging
him to spend day in New Mexico upon
his tour to the west In answer to this
special invitation Governor Otero is in
receipt Of the following letter:
Executive Mansion, Washington, April
Is, 1901 My Dear Sir: Referring again
to your letter of March 16 in regard to
the presidents contemplated trip to the
Pacific coast, write to say that the
itinerary has now been completed and it
has been decided to 60 from New Or
leans to California by the Southern Pa
cific route.
While this precludes any extended
stops at points In New Mexico, it has
been rendered necessary by the limited
time at the presidents disposal for the
trip and the necessity of keeping en-
gagements made some time ago for New
Orleans and California.
Assuring you that under other circum-
stances it would have afforded the presi-
dent much pleasure to be able to visit
the many points of interest you mention
in your letter, am,
Very truly yours,
GEORGE b. CORTELYoU,
Secretary to the President.

The HEADSTONE DISTRICT.
A Number of Promising Prospects Are Be
ing Developed at Bromide.

| AhSo DSNSAOPSsA Nv OAVAAAASs
Charles M Taylor, who lis associated
with his stepfathea P. j. Lawton, {
Chicago capitalist, i'm developing a mum
Coer of prospects i'm the Headstone dis
CIR in SANTA Fe yesterday ON his way
| from British Columbia, where he had
| investigated a number of coal mines
near Ladygnith, to dhe Bromide camp
in the Headstone district. He left for
Tres Piedhpas, IA miles from Bromide
| this forenoon. Mr.. Taylor has spent
| two years in the Broenilde district and
will stay the next mine months
| in that district. He says that a good
| deal of development work is being dome
| i'm that SECTION of Rio Arrlba county.
There is NO boom and at present there
| is not a single mime i'm the district, and
lit Will take at least a year before good
mine is developed, but there are many
| excellenH and promising prospects,.
Outside capital has been interested and
is pushing development work. The
Bromide is, being worked by the New
Mexico Gold & Copper company of Mil
waukee The shaft has been sunk 160
feet and is in good ore. Owing to the
distance from the railroad and the ab-
sence of concentraltorsi lit takes $50 ore
to make mining profitable under pres
emit circumstances. The ore lis copper
with values i'm gold and silver.
The Pontiac Mining company has
LEASED from Messrs. Lawton and Tay
lor, the Copper Mountain exploration
tunnel which is being driven to explore
Coycte mounItaim upon which ore has
been found in all directions. The tun-
mel was driven Sc feet last year and the
Pontiac company will drive it 200 feet
more when lit is thought it will cut the
Ashton Lode. A big dyke of low grade
ore running from $S Ito $27.20 per ton,has
already been cut lby the tunnel. The
ore is free milling. 1t is proposed to
sink chi the lead after the tunnel has
been driven the full 2S6 feet. The conn
pany also is doing work ON the Last
Hope, and Copper King and Copper
Mountain TUNNEL mines. 1t is
now working ~ men, the deposits be-
ing mostly copper. There il, am average
i'm the Copper King Of about $40 ore and
the average in the Last Hope is about
$26. The ore bodies are large. The
Pontiac Mining company is composed of
business men from Detr'odt and Pom
tiac, Mich. 1t is concern simply to de-
velop the country and see what can be
got out of it. There is MO stock for sale,
all i1he money necessary for the devel-
opment of THESE claims having been
raised by the stockholders of the COM
pany.
This summer, Mr.. Taylor will do work
ON the Copper King and THE Last Hope,
On the same lead as the Strawberry and
