Gives President Results Of Inquiry
Into Alleged War Camp.
Washington, April 22.-The complete
report Of Colonel Crowder of the Judge
advocate generals department upon his
inquiry into conditions at Port Chal-
mette, whence supplies are being ship
ped to South Africa, is now in the
hands of the president. Colonel Crow
der spent many hours in going over
his report in company with Acting Sec
rotary Sanger and Judge Advocate
General Davis at the war department.
At the presidents suggestion certain
details were added to the report that
We're not originally included.
An important fact in connection with
the document is that it makes no rec
concentrations as to the treatment of
affairs at Port Chalmette 1t is merely
a statement of the conditions there as
they were discovered by Colonel Crow
der.
The war departments says that in
making this inquiry Colonel Crowder
acted as personal representative of
the president, and so he is not account
able to the department. For this rea-
son they decline to make any statement
as to the character of the report, and.
for his part, Colonel Crowder declares
that 1t is for the president alone to
make the report or any part of it pub
lie il he desires.

London, April 22.-Letters have beef

leader Of the expedition which is at
tempting to make it's way overland
from Paris to New York and which
left the former city Dec. 10, 1901, dated
Verkhoyansk. East Siberia, on the Up
per Yana river, at the end of February.
In spite of the forebodings of the Of
iicials Of Yakutsk, who strongly urged
MIR. de Windt not to continue his Jour-
ney, saying the conditions were worse
this year than ever, that the cold was
more intense and that epidemics and
famine were raging, the expedition
reached Verkhoyansk, 600 miles north
Of Yakutsk. Feb. 2S.
The members of the expedition had
a terrible experience while crossing the
Nerkhoyansk mountains. The cold was
intense, 63 degrees below zero being
registered. All the travellers were frost.

good spirits and were leaving the same

the party hoped to reach about the mid

of the expedition will be it's arrival in

Fortunes in Song.

There is something peculiarly pathe-
tic in the fate of Signor Piccolomini,
whose songs are being sung all the
world over tonight, while the man who
composed them lies dead on the edge
OF a pauper's grave. The profits
from one of his songs, had they been
his, would surely have made Piccolo-
mini rich enough to avert his painful
end We speak lightly of IAN old
song but an old song has more than
once been worth a gold mine. Sir
Arthur Sullivan is said to have re-
ceived ten thousand pounds in royal
ties for THE Lost Chord" and MY
Pretty Jane" is stated to have been
worth to the publisher two thousand
pounds a line. Some Day" is set
down among the 10000 songs, and
I'm Old Madrid" it is said has already
yielded a revenue Of half as much
again.
The copyright of song is often a
sure road to ease and competence, il
not to fortune. That of For All
Eternity" was sold in London a few
years ago for G2,240. The fate of
Piccolomini brings to mind the author

years ago for slightly more. "Old

songs and operas is not at all rare.
The lot of the composer, like that
of too many authors, is not invariably
easy. A well-known composer of our
own time has three times passed
through the bankruptcy court, and his
case is typical of many. Handel
fought courageously against his mis-
fortunes as an insolvent debtor, and
under the great pressure of his mis-
fortunes produced Saul" Israel" and
others of his finest works. "He
braved everything" says one of his
biographers, "and by his unaided self

The End of the Quest.

Unarm him here. Now wish him rest
His was the fate of those who fall
Who never end the knightly quest.
Nor ever find the Holy Grail.
He was the fieriest lance in all
That virgin honor called to dare:
The courtlcst of the knights in hall,
The boldest at the barriere.
Joyful he took the sacred Task
That led him far by flood and field;
His lady's favor at his casque,
Gods cross upon his argent shield.
See where the Paynim point has cleft
The crimson cross that could not save!
See where the scimitar has reft
The favor that his lady gave!
For this poor fate he rode so far
With faith untouched by toll or time;
A perfect knight in press of war,
Stainless before the Mystic Shrine
One finds the Rose and one the rod;
The weak achieve. the mighty fail.
None knows the dark design but God,
Who made the Knight and made the
Grail
The single eye. the steadfast heart,
The strong endurance of the day.
The patiepce under wound and smart
Shall all these utterly decay?
The long adventure resteth here:
His was the lot of those who fail,
Who ride unfouled by sin or fear
Yet never find the Holy Grail.

Big Prices for Vermont Sheep.
Montpelier Journal

Vermont sheep breeders, and es-
pecially those of Addison county,
should feel elated over the result of
the recent sales of blooded Merinos
at Bradley's Head quarantine grounds
near Sydney, Australia. The Sgd
ney Mail, speaking of the sale, said
on July 5:
Most of the sheep offered were
from strains well known to Austria
liam pastoralists> On the whole the
ewes passed off better than the rams,
although the average of the latter
was we'll in advance-fact largely due
however to isolated high prices. The
highest figure was paid for the ram

class at the Pan-American Exhibition.
which was secured by Messrs. E.
Webb & Co., of Bathurst, for 410
guineas. Mr.. ]. S. Hersfall paid 260
guineas for the ram Vermont, and the
Jondaryan Estate. Darling Downs,
secured one for 200 guineas. The
ewes realized up to 70 guineas.
Throughout the rams averaged about
50 guineas and ewes 2S1k guineas."
Messrs. Bissell & Peck, of East
Shoreham, Addison county, sold at
this time forty-three sheep that
brought a plump sum of s7,790. or an
average of 1881 per head. Wright,
Cartmell & Cook, the well known deal
ers of Middlebury, sold four animals
for $500 for the lot, while another
lot of fifteen from Addison county
averaged S275 per head. To the aver
age sheep raiser of this state these
figures look large, and they are as
compared with what the farmer re-
ceives for an ordinary grade sheep;
but for a fancy bred Spanish Merino
or Ramboulett they are exceeding
ly moderate.

Arizona as a Gold Producer.

It is generally known that Arizona is a gold producer and that within its ccnfiues are gold mines which rank high among the gold mines of the world, says the Journal for Investors. II is, however, as a copper producer that ArIzona is famous, and in refer ring to her future possibilities in a mining way most people would be in- clined to look to her copper mines. A statement just made will, therefore, come as surprise to many.
 It is asserted But Arizona's greatest mineral resource is its gold, and in spite of it's great and famous copper mines and its enormous output of the red metal, it will be gold that makes up its mineral record, and they are its gold mines and prospects thai offer the greatest and most numerous attractions and opportunities to the general mining world" Here is, in deed, a revelation, and with such { future before it the gold mining in 1 dustry of Arizona most certainly oiicri exceptional opportunities for the in vestment of capital.

Graham a first-Class County.

The board of equalization has com pleted its labor, having found a total property valuation of $3,376, ,6l467. This is a raise of S6S7 ,570.S0 over the amount returned by the county asses sor. The changes will all be published in the official paper and on August IS the board will again meet to hear com plaintS from any who feel themselves aggrieved. It is probable thUt small per cent Of the above will be remitted possibly to the amount of S75, ,000. The amount of valuation upon which taxes were paid last year was $2,956, GOO, which gives an increase this year, as it now stands, of $420, l4667, a very gratifying increase of wealth for one year. This valuation places the cOun- ty easily in the first class, and will cause some changes in the court house force. The probate judge will be re- leved of the duties of county superin- tendent of schools, and that official will be elected. The clerk of the board of supervisors will be entirely distinct from the recorder and will be appoint ed by the board at salary of $l, 800 per year. The treasurer and district attorney are not yet entitled to depu- ties, the former requiring valuation of S4,000,000 and the latter s 900, ,0O0.

Passenger Service Between Bisbee and Denim

It is now reported that passenger service will soon be put on the Fl PaSO & Southwestern railroad between Bis bee and Deming, the train to leave BiSbee in the morning just after the one for Benson. The train will arrive in BiSbee from Deming in the evening probably leaving Deming after the westbound Southern Pacific train ar riveS at that point. It is not believed that this train will in any way affect the present train to Benson.
 This new passenger service will result in all passengers from Bisbee going east taking that route. The distance from BiSbee to Deming is about l50 miles and it is some farther than that from Benson to Deming on tho South ern Pacific. Passengers going east from BiSbee will shorten their route more than fifty miles and save a change of cars at Benson by going tc Deming.
 The new line from LordSburg, New | Mexico, to Hachita, on the Fl PasO X Southwestern line, has been completed and is ready for the service to begin or it. This is an extension of the ArizO ua & New Mexico railroad that ha; long been in operation between Clifton and LOrdsburg.

 The Tombstone correspondent of the Range News says ''The four big boilers are now on their beds at the mines, and an imposing spectacle they present, too. The steel building GOV erng them is finished. It is large T-shaped building, which houses all of the boilers, the hoist and pump, or lift ing engine, with room left over. The pump engine is almost ready to turn on the steam. This is a massive en- zine, which is geared in such way as to give it immense power in lifting. It will be utilized in lowering the pom derous pumps to their places on the level of the mine where they are to be operated The hoist engine will be moved and placed at once, and then the time of beginning active mining will be near. No one can see the plant going up, and not be impressed that great things in mining will again be accomplished at Tombstone,
