AMONG THE ANGELS
Sturgeon Corrected His Opinion of
What He Might Do.

Sturgeon Corrected His Opinion of
What He Might Do.
One day the mayor of Cambridge,
who had tried to curb Mr.. Surgeons
tendencies to sensationalism, inquired
of him if he had really told his congre-
CATION that if thief got into heaven
he would begin picking the angels
pockets.
Eyes, SIR" the young preacher re-
piled, 81 told them that if it were pos
sible for an ungodly man to go to
heaven without having his nature
changed he would be none the better
for being there, and then, by way Of
illustration, l said that were thief to
get in among the glorified he would
remain a thief still, and he would go
around the place picking the angels
pockets"
But, my dear young friend" asked
the mayor seriously, 'don't you know
that the angels haven't any pocketsY
mo, SIR" replied young Sturgeon,
with equal gravity, 81 did not know
that, but 1 am glad to be assured Of
the fact from a gentleman who does
know. 1 will take care to put it all
right the first opportunity l get"
The next Monday morning Sturgeon
walked into the mayors place of bust
ness and said to him cheerfully, 81
set that matter right yesterday, sir"
"What matter?" he inquired.
"Why, about the angels pockets"
"What did you say"
"Oh, sir, just told the people l was
sorry to say that had made a mis-
take the last time preached to them,
but that l had met a gentleman, the
mayor of Cambridge, who had assured
me that the angels had no pockets, SO
l must correct what 1 had said, as
did not want anybody to go away with
a false notion about heaven. l would
therefore say that if thief got among
the angels without having his nature
changed he would try to steal the
feathers out of their wings!'-Homi

CAN'T LICENSE
POOL ROOM
Business Is in Violation of State
{ Anti-Gambling Law.
DECISION. BY JUDGE CLEMENTS.
Sustains Demurrer of Defendants in
the Club Pool Room Case, Holding
that Civil Action Cannot be Main
tanned to Enforce Payment.

The making Of books the acceptance
of wages and the selling of pools on
horse races must be classed among
gaming devices such as roulette, faro
and other gambling games, and are
therefore under the ban according to
the anti-gambing law of the state Of
Montana.
This being so, lcenses attempting
to permit poolrooms to operate in this
state are void.
This is the decision of Judge j. M.
Clements, of department two of the
Lewis and Clarke county district
court, as expressed in his opinion on
the demurrer in the case of the city
of Helena against Louis Johnson,
Samuel Wallin, H. I. Wilson and J.
J. Kelley. The opinion was handed
down yesterday.
Some weeks ago the city bought a
civil suit against the parties named
for the purpose of collecting $1,070,
claimed as back license for the privi-
lege of conducting the Club poolroom
in this city. The defendants, through
their counsel, Albert j. Galen, en-
terea a general demurrer to the COM
plant. Argument was heard by the
court last week, Mr.. Galen and City
Attorney Edward Horsky arguing for
and against the demurrer, respective
1u Tn Ind c
sustains the demurrer and dismisses
the complaint. Under this decision
should it be upheld by the supreme
court, no poolroom can be operated
except in violation of the states law
against gambling.
Judge Clements opinion follows:
THE defendants interpose a ger
herein.
"The complaint alleges that the de
PENDANT on certain days, did MAKE
books, propose and accept wager
upon and sell pools on race horses
without having obtained a licens
therefor from the city as provided b,
ordinance.
1hS hSSplHS VI UoOhos dCSSpIll
wagers and selling pools upon hors
races cannot be viewed in any othe
light than that it is a gaming device
as much so as the keeping of a gan
ing table where a wager is riske
upon any other sort of device or III
certain event.
Contracts having for their con
sideration the carrying on of an Ill
lawful business are void as agains
public policy, and courts will not el
force them. For the same reason
civil suit cannot be maintained to el
force the payment of a license fe
provided by ordinance, for carryin
on an unlawful business.
THE authorities hold that a civil a
tion cannot be maintained to enforC
the payment of Arrears of license
the absence of a statute or ordinant
providing such remedy. The alleg
tons of the complaint nowhere di
closes the existence of such an orc
nance.
"For these reasons the demurrer
sustained and the complaint di
missed. Helena Independent

THE c1ENEaU1TA MINES
Samples of the Ore on Exhibition at
 the Board of Trade.

There are now on exhibition at the board of trade room three samples of ore from the Chipiona vein on the property of the Cieneguita Copper company in Sonora, Mexico. This property, of which considerable has been written of late, is situated 40 miles east of Minas Prietas in the edge of the Sierra Madre mountains, and | the Cieneguita company is composed largely of Arizona men. including Dr. Ford and Judge Barnes.
 The samples on exhibition are sul- phide ore, and their assay value is as follows: No. l, 321.4O ounces of silver and 34 6-10 per cent. copper with a trace of gold; No. ?, gold S1.65, 201 ounces silver and 23 2-1O per cent copper; No. 3, SPAS gold, 1s71s ounces silver and 23 per cent copper. The percentage shows that for copper alone the vein Is a very rich one. while 1t carries in silver five times the copper lead there is sixteen feet of this sul- phide ore: on the Colorado vein, about sixty-five feet distant. there is a ledge eight feet wide, and the Cargona. an other parallel ledge, has a width of 100 feet. though the values are not so high. Still the whole vein of 100 feet averages seventy ounces in silver and three per cent in copper.
 Three experts. have estimated that on the Chipiona vein alone there are 5OOO,00 tons of this kind of ore in sight. But aside from that and the two other veins named. there are other veins within the limit of 300 feet in width. and all who have visited the property concur in the opinion that with depth the veins all unite. There are other rich veins in the same mineral band. and the company also has a number of other groups in the same district, the Sahuaripe. any one of which is accounted to be worth a fortune. Besides that, they have q woods. affording an unlimited supply of fuel and mining timber. Undoubt- edly the ores will be smelted by a pro- cess permitting the use of wood for fuel. so the fuel question will give no trouble.
 These big mineral deposits are of the class known as antiguas, or mines worked by the Spaniards in the early days of the written history of Meico. They were worked then simply for their silver values and by processes to which the sulphide ores would not yield. In these days the sulphide ores are the most valuable. The work of the ancient miners was therefore of shallow depth. but still the surface ores were of sufficient richness to make the working of the mines very profitable on an extensive scale, as in dicated by the ruins of their old work ings. The old workings were just suf- ficient to lay bare to the view of the modern mine hunter the rich sulphide deposits. then so undesirable, now the very thing that Is demanded for big operations. There is no question but some day these mines will be connect ed by rail. for as man said yester- day. you cannot bring a mine to 6 railroad. but you can bring a railroad to mine if it is worth it. and the Cieneguita properties certainly are"

CIGARS GET SEASICK.
Office 2Ss N. Rochester. \

Since our troops have been in the Philippines my friends among the off, cers tationed there have at frequent intervals been remembered with boxes of Manila cigars" remarked a member of Uncle Sam's fighting force who was severely wounded at Fl Caney and is now on the retired list, to a reporter. 'I have learned to prefer the tobacco of the far east to the domestic brand. and do not see how I could now get along without the fragrant Manilas.
 Recently l received shipment of cigars he continued. but they proved a sad disappointment. In fact they seemed to me to be entirely worthless. I puffed at one after another, but they simply could not be smoked. In de- spair I finally consulted a well known tobacconist. The situation was no problem to him. He promptly told me to lay the cigars aside for few weeks, after which I would find them all right. He was correct. When I sought an explanation the toba acconist assured me in all seriousness that the cigars had been seasick from the voyage across the Pacific and needed rest.
 II have since learned" added the of ficer, that wines and liquors are af- fected in similar manner by the ocean shipment-"-New York Times.

A MINING DEAL.

The Copper King group of seven lode claims in the Ash Peak district of the Hill brothers of Duncan has gone into the hands of the Ohio and Arizona Copper Mining and Smelling company of Cincinnati, Ohio, new company now under organization, says the Cliff ton Copper Era. The deal was made through the energy of Carl Wulsten. c. and NJ. E. of Rosita, Colo, who is the general manager of the above com> pany, and who is now engaged in de- veloping the great copper property. The company now has twenty-five lode claims and one mill site located and surveyed and Wulsten Camp has been established at the Copper King mine, now under development. Wulsten is a mile and a half southeast from the seven and a half mile mark on the Sol omonville county road from Duncan. Headquarters of the manager are tenn porarily established in the Duncan ho- tel. Very fine ore is being taken out of the shaft, which will be sunk to d depth of 400 feet. A store and boarding house will soon be erected at Wulsten camp. where the company's headquarters will be permanently located.

MYSTERIES OF THE SKIES.

Though three hundred years have elapsed since the death of Tycho Brahe, and the scientific world has only re- gently joined in celebrating worthily his immortal memory. it appears that we are in mahy lines almost as far from the ultimate goal as when he be gan the great work of exploring the skies before the days of Kepler, when all Europe was slumbering in intellec- tua1 darkness. The science of the stars. indeed, has been refined and per fected in an unparalleled degree, and infinitely extended in all directions but with the bounds of darkness pushed back step by step. the goal is not and never will be. in sight As in finity of objects and causes and an end- less variety of phenomena are yet to be explored, and the work of the mind is rather a process of development to the perfect understanding of the uni verse than the solution of a simple mathematical problem.

COLORADO REFORM.

Hon. T. M. Patterson, who was elect ed on a reform ticket United States senator for Colorado, seems to have en- tirely forgotten the fact of his election. Congress has been in session for about three weeks, irrigation and other bills of interest to Colorado have been under considera tion by a committee of which h is a member, but the senator has been all this time engaged in his pri- vate business at Council Bluffs in the trial of a case as attorney for a mill lionaire mine owner, earning a large fee, in addition to his salary as senator.
 This is the true Colorado reform idea-public office is a public trust. ex- cept when it stands in the way of a pri- vate snap. His newspaper in the meantime keeps up it's lick at million aires and corporations. who. it says. are always interfering with public business.
 Thus the saints of reform fall before the god of mammon whenever they run up against it.-Denver Republican.

AN EIGHT HOUR CAMP
New Yesrs Gift of Copper Queen Go.
 to Its Employees.

The Copper Queen company made its employees New Years gift on Wed nesday, which was probably the most valuable gift presented anywhere in Arizona on that day. says the Bisbee Review.
 Commencing with January 1, 1902, each and every miner in the employ of the Copper Queen company will work eight hours and receive s3.5O. From this day forward Bisbee will be an eight hour camp and miners in the employ of this company will receive top wages, more than paid by any other mining company in Arizona.
 In the past Bisbee has practically been an eight hour camp. a ajority of the men only working that length of time. Some of the miners, however, were on a ten hour shift, and worked In stopes that were not so uncomfort- able as the eight hour shifts.
 .- Now there Is to be but one shift and that is eight hours, and the men will be changed into the top stopes in rota- tion, so that every man in the mine will be performing the same labor for the same pay.
 The innovation was gladly welcomed. It is another recognition of the faithful employees of the Copper Queen com pany and a recognition by that com pany of the rights of the laboring man without union or mandate of law to that effect. l-
 The Copper Queen company starts the new year with the best wishes of the general public and the hearty CO., operation of their employees, pleasant combination that means for the good of all.

THE ORC GRANDE MINE
Operation Will Be Stopped Pending
 Settlement of Litigation.

Wickenburg, Afiz., Jan. 3.-(Special correspondence of The Republican.)- The night shift at the Orc Grande mine was laid off today for an indefinite period. The day shifts will be kept on for about two weeks doing the assess ment work for this year and will then be laid off and the mine will close down to remain closed until the litigation with Weisling is settled. Since starting work last spring, the company has done about 1,10O feet of work, nearly all of which is in ore, the ore in some places being so rich that free gold can be seen glistening on the sides of the tunnels and drifts. A number of thousands of tons of this rich ore are on the dump, none of it ever having been milled, as the starting of the liti- gation caused the order for mill to be cancelled last summer. A number of cottages, bunk houses and other build ings have been erected and the camp is one of the best equipped in the ter ritory.
 The closing down of the Orc Grande will not seriously affect the business of Wickenburg, as since it's starting a number of other companies have com menced operations in the district con- tributory hereto and these will keep the camp lively and help to tide over affairs until the Gro Grande resumes operations. A notice of appeal has been given by Upton. Hatfield and Lamb and from a conversation with General Manager Upton it is probable the case will be fought to a finish in the supreme court of the United States, unless settled sooner.
