THE RIGHT IDEA
Some Sensible Talk About Arizona
 Ore Bodies.

A striking feature of the general in terest attracted to mining during the last half dozen years has been the re- naissance of Arizona mines. A widely extended and profitable mining indus try has been developed from sup posedly decadent industry. The criti- cism of unsuccessful miners who did not dig down, that Ariozna mines had no depth. has been disproved by the now successful miners who have dug mines down to great depths. At tine same time Arizona mines have been found to have great breadth as we'll as depth- The mines are notable for the enormous ore bodies that extended working has disclosed.-Mining and Scientific Press.
 The remarkable feature of the situa- ton is that the dictum of ''unsuccess- ful miners who did not dig down is still appealed to and bears weight in the consideration of proposed mining investments in Arizona The Oasis has in mind case of recent occurrence A mining operator in the east wrote to friends in Nogales to '.send something big" and he would secure capital to buy and work 1t on big scale. They did send him something big" with ac- counts of big developments al around the property, ana Soou showing on that. Instead of coming or sending an expert to examine and report, the min ing operator went to a. man who oper- ated twelve years ago in this part of Arizona (and made failure of course), and that worthy told the inquirer that the mines here don't go down.. What does he know about it? He has not been here within twelve years. and knows nothing of what has been done since he was "hen scratching" around tho country.-Nogales Oasis.

TEARING UP THE EARTH
Things are Lively These Days in the Wickenburg District.

Mir. Gus Streitz returned yesterday morning from Wickenburg. where he has been engaged in surveying the Sa- huaro and Lorna Doom mining proper ties. He expects to return shortly to do similar work at other mines.
 Mr. Streitz says that while Wicken- burg does not seem to be entertaining any sort of boom. business is good and the work going on in the entire district is a better indication for the ul- innate prosperity and solid building up of WickenbCrg than a boom could pos sibly be. He says that all hours of the day and frequently at night the ex- plosion of giant powder can be hear1 in every direction.
 Wickenburg is the center of a district where the rich mineral veins lie so close toegther that promising discoveries bump up against each other and neigh bors are not so far apart but that they can watch the operations of each other. There are several properties in the dis trict that are sufficiently developed to be called mines and dozens of pros- poets that promise equally as much when they are developed. Just now the acknowledged big things are being de- veloped as rapidly as possible and the holders of prospects are taking no 
 but are securing them by completion of their assessment work. The result of all this is that while Wickenburg is not a modern Leadville, the business men there are enjoying a good patron age, the hills are full of men and the men are at work.
 The Orc Grande is employing about twenty men. all there is room for. and pushing work to the best possible ad- vantage. On the Sahuaro group a double compartment timbered working shaft is being sunk and it is now down about twenty-two feet On the same claims there is also a forty-five foot shaft, another one eighteen feet deep and two other holes eleven and fifteen feet deep. -a
 The Lorna Doon property, north of the Box canyon. io a fine appearing copper mine and a big ore body is in sight. On this a double compartment working shaft is also being sunk. With the Orc Grande gold mine. the Sahuaro silver mine and the Lorna Doon copper mine, Wickenburg, ought to have future ahead of her. And, as referred to above, these properties are no bigger than dozen others promise to be when opened up. At any rate, the conditions in that district are such that anyone who has a claim with any sort of a showing on it is going to do his best to see that it will not be open to the operations of the claim jumper this year, each one having a reasonable. faith that he will have something to sell before this tirae next year.

MINING NOTES.

We understand that the real reason for the closing down of the Tennessee mine at Chloride is the desire of the big share holders to force the small holders to disgorge their limited hold ing of stock at a price to be agreed upon by the big fish. When this has been accomplished the property will be turned over to a company that has been formed for this purpose. The price agreed upon is said to be $500. '000. The mine is in good ore and can output a better product than ever in its history. So far in the deal practi- cally all the small blocks of stock have been called in at a low figure kinghan Miner.

ABOUT TITLED PEOPLE.

Lord Talbot 6e Malahide. whose en- gagement is just announced to the widow of MT. Gurney of Sprouston hall, Norfolk is head of family which has been settled in Ireland for at least 700 years and still owns the manor origin ally granted to it by Henry II. The most interesting members of the family was. perhaps. the famous duke of Tyr connel. James HIS chief governor ot Ireland. whose wife. the beautiful Francis Jennings (sister of Sarah. duchess of Marlborough became Q poor Clare nun in Dublin after her hus- bands death. surviving him some fifty years. The present Lord Talbot. who is an antiquarian of some repute, is in his fifty-sixth year.
 Malahide castle. Lord Talbot's an- cestral seat, stands in the decayed an5 melancholy watering place of the same name some miles north of Dublin. but is itself a structure of considerable in terest, portions of it dating from the reign of Henry 1T. It has, however. been much modernized and appears to- day as an ivy covered mansion fianked by two drum shaped towers. The i'm terior has fine rooms, notably one pan- eled in oak carved with quaint scrip tural subjects. There are many valu- able pictures, among them a triptych by Albert Durer which belonged to Mary, queen of Scots, and was bought by Charles II. for s15.000.

A TIMELY COMMENT
Explosives Should Be Handled Care
 fully Around Mines.

An explosion and fire at the La Suerte mine in Nevada county. which de- stroyed about S20.O0O worth of property and endangered the lives of miners working in an upraise 1000 feet from the main shaft, was evidently the re- suit of carelessness: first, in failing to protect the roof of the hoisting works from sparks from the boiler room. and second, in storing a large quantity of giant powder and giant caps where there was any possibility of danger. If we had a state mine inspector d dis aster like that would not be likely to happen. as with his appointment laws would be enacted to compel mine own CTS and superintendents to store eX- plosives at a safe distance from the works. Suppose the miners engaged at work had not heard the explosion and the shaft and drift had filled with water, which they eventually did. for the water pipes had burst by the ter rife shock. before they could make their escape. It was all they could ac- complish to reach the drain tunnel. l50 feet from the bottom of the shaft, for the water was pouring in torrents from the broken pipes. A little more eX- pense. little more care. and such ac- cidents would be impossible; and noth- ing but heavy penalties for the disre- garding of vigorous laws for the pro- tection of miners and property and a state mine inspector with power to en- force them. will render work in some California mines safe.

TUCSON GOES REPUBLICAN.

The republicans secured two out off three councilmen in the election held Monday. The result was somewhat of a surprise to the republican candi- dates themselves. The Second ward. which usually gives the democrats a majority. went republican for both can didates yesterday Sam Barkley, the democratic candidate in the First ward. was elected, although the ward is usu- ally republican. and William Reid, the republican candidate for councilman at-large. carried the ward yesterday.
 The voters did not split up on party lines- Anderson, the republican candi- personal canvass and was elected. George Scholefield also made a strong canvass, but was unable to overcome Barkley's popularity. The total vote was very light in both wards Not half of the voters in the city cast ballots.
 The republicans now have a majority of two votes in the council, which will stand four to two. Ed Hale, council man from the First ward. and George Angus, councilman from the Second ward, retire. George Shand. republican, from the First ward. and Charles Good win, republican, from the Second ward, hold over. F. A. Russell, councilman at-large. democrat, holds over. Reid succeeds himself. Anderson and Bark ley will furnish the two new faces Citizen

ADJUSTMENTS A


Tonight Huebner's Dramatic com- pany will produce Married Life" an excellent comedy by America's best playright. William Gillette. The Hueb- ner company come highly recommended by the eastern press. The Fl Paso Times says:
 This company opened a weeks en- gagerient in Morrill, opera house last evening. to a good house. presenting the Imaginable comedy, Married Life"
 Tt would doubtless be a surprise to the people who attended, at least the great majority of them, to know the the play they listened to under the name of Married Life was really that popular play, "Because She Loved Him So." which has had such an unpre- cedenred run in the large cities. But no difference what name the play goes under the plot is good and it must be said for the company that gave it last evenir that it was indeed well played. It is not saying too much to say that if the company keeps up the standard set last night. 1t will be the strongest com pany that has appeared in the Morrill, opera house with a repertoire. The acting last night was splendid. the in depreciation excellent. The specialties were also first class"

 Rare is the rose-burst of dawn, but the secret that clasps 1t Is rarer; Sweet the exuItance of song. but the strain that pervades it is sweeter. And never was poem yet writ, but the meaning outmastered the meter.  Never daisy that grows, but a mys- tery guided the growing; Never a river that flows. but a ma- jesty sceptres the flowing: Never a Shakespeare that scared. but q stronger than he did enfold him. Nor ever a prophet fortells. but a mig'htier seer hath foretold him.

Great the the symbols of being. but thar which is synbolled is greater;
 Vast the create and beheld, but vaster the inward creator: Back of the sound broods the silence. back of the gift stands the giving: Back of the hand that receives thrill the sensitive nerves of receiving. Space is as nothing to spirit, the deed is outdone by the doing: The heart of the woer is warm, but warmer the heart of the wooing: l n r,ff xt-bo tl,oea and up from the heights where those shine.

NEwBERRY COUNTY. S. c.

F. L. Asbill. q young attorney of the Lexington bar, was shot in the lower portion of this county on We'd nesday last, by MT. C. w. Sollee, a prominent merchant of Batesburg. It appears that Mir Asbill has been re- tained by a Mir. Padgett to appear in a case for him in which MT. Sollee was interested in some way on the other side. While on the highway Sollee and Asbill had some words. when the former drew his pistol and fired at Asbill as he was jumping from his buggy, the ball taking effect in the back. Asbill, it is thought. is danger ously wounded, although news reached here late Saturday evening that he was slightly hurt. The whole affair is deplored by friends or both parties. MT. Sollee was in Saluda Saturday for the purpose. it is presumed of retaining counsel. MT. Asbill is an ex-repre sentative of Lexington, having served that county as a member of the legis- lature in 1898 and 1899. Since writing the above it is learned that Sollee has retained Colonel George Johnstone of Newberry, and means to surrender if Asbill dies.
 On Friday night a serious cutting af- fray occurred at Monetta, in this coun- ty, in which Messrs. NJ. P. Hartley and Brooks Cato figured. The particulars have not been ascertained further than that Cato is terribly slashed up. Hart ley. who. it appears, escaped unhurt, was in Saluda Saturday evening arm ed with q shotgun, and the report leaked out that he feared violence at the hands of Cato's friends and was prepared to protect himself. He went from here to Aiken for the purpose of having several peace warrants issued for the Catos.-Letter to Charleston News and Courier.

LA PROVEDERA DE COBRE
Sonora Copper Property in Which
 Phoenix Men are Interested.

District Clerk w. C. Foster retrned yesterday morning from mining trip to Mexico on which he set out about two weeks ago. He is interested with several other gentlemen in a property about twenty-siX miles west of Altar which he thinks will become one of the great ones of the earth. It is called La Provcdero de Cobre, meaning the provider Of copper" There is q wonder ful ore body in sight from which sev eral very SC tisfactory assays have been made. Even the lime crust overlying the iron cao is shown to contain 6 per cent of copper. An assay Of picked ore showed 34 per cent copper and forty ohe ounces of silver.
 The property is about thirty-fiye miles from the coast and the road to It is as good as could be desired. There is plenty of surrounding wood and water. There is mesquite grove of several thousand acres. IE that locality the question whether mesquite is tim Der could not be successfully raised there. Some of the trees are three and four feet in diameter and they grow to a considerable height. MT. Foster say beams and supports in a mill nearby from this grove, some of which were fourteen inches in diameter. The property of the Sonora Milling and Mining company is in the same district and only about sixteen miles away
