The Development OF the Mines Con.
tinuG and Great Enterprises
are Projected.

KELVIN. -AriZ., March l3,-It was
pay day at Troy Mining Camp on Mon
day.
over one hundred men are on the
pay rolls Of the Troy and The Man
haitian Mining Companies and that
is evidenced by the good order and
sobreity that generally prevailed there
on pay day.
lom Cayanaugh, Charlie Lucas and
General Manager Cutting deserve great
credit Tor bringing about such a salts
factory state of affairs which is great
" IN contrast to that Of many other
mining camps In the Territory.
IT - owing to this good management
that Troy Is a success beyond all ques-
ton.
Great bodies of rich mineral are
blocked out. and now after over two
years OF development, machinery OF the
proper kind is being put in.
An abundance of water Is being de-
veloped and the concentrating ma
chinery is being erected convenient to
the ore bodies.
Economy and wise management has
marked every movement of this sue
cessful mining enterprise, and proves
beyond a doubt that this Is a rich min
eral region beyond all peradventure.
Work on the 2000-fo tunnel, near
the head of Mineral and Pinto Creeks,
Is being pushed vigorously and a rail-
road from this big enterprise down
Mineral Creek to the ella River to
connect with the Phoenix and Eastern
Railroad is contemplated in the ve.y
near future.
Bill Truman, the good looking AMI
very intelligent sheriff OF Pinal Coun-
". was here a few days ago and is
very enthusiastic over his mining pros
poets in Alaska. recently sold To
New York syndicate whereby he is
soon to realize about $40 900 as his
share g.: it all. Mr., Truman has also
valuable copper claims near Kelvin
near which the new railroad will pass,
so he may soon be ranked among the
millionaries and multimilIionaires of
the country
judge Hickey and Distiict Attorney
J. c. Connor. Of Florence were in
Kelvin and Troy a few days ago, as
fat and good looking as t@o such in
( telligent goOd-natureG and efficient Of
ficals could be and are enthusiastic as
regards the outlook for the welfare of
Pinal County in It's mining, agri-
cultural and cattle interests.
Engineer Orton and his urv'*ors
have completed the final survey for
I the Phoenix and Eastern Railroad to
point about ten miles above Riverside
amt will move their camps to above
/ Dudleyyille in a few days
/ A branch ra!ifOad from Tucson to
/ Mammoth would tap this new road
and open up rich tributary mining
agricultural and cattle country to Tue
son. 1t would be only n short tap of
fifty miles and right into the finest
| region in Arizona.
| The Tucson Chamber of Commerce
should take some steps TO build that
railroad at any rate whether the
I Phoenix and Eastern builds or not.
It viii be- valuable to Tucson in many
ways and certainly valuable feeder
to its commercial prosperity.
The machinery tor the test oil well,
three miles cast Of Kelvin Is on the
ground and beng put in place The
urlaco Indications for oil are fine as
mentioned mIIy in previous articles.

Mr. W w Watts. a Kentucky gentle
man, who recently paid a visit to
Tommy Mochan, says he mas discovered
one Of the Lost arts" Says he has cX-
perimentod with Kentucky whiskey so
that he can condense it to graular
state; can then make 1t up in lite pills,
fifty of which will be equal to one gal
lon of old Kentucky whiskey.
A dose of four pills will usually in
toxicate the most inveterate old topper,
while eight will give an ordinary man
glorious jag.
They can be sold for 25 cents a box
as there is no government tax provided
for any such unthought of invention.
big stock company will be form
ed and new era of brightness and JOY
will dawn upon very weary an des-
pondent world
