The Miners
and the Scale

This district has an industrial basis
which is usually overlooked when our
many natural resources and advan-
tages are enumerated. 1t is in the
solid, conservative and business-like
character of our workingmen. This
has been demonstrated time and time
again. but never with more point and
force than by the dignifed, strictly
business conduct of the Miners Com
Inittee in their negotiations with the
Operators Committee the past few
days. They went to work on business
lines, in a business way, and succeed
ed. not only in securing their principal
points, but also gained the respect and
appreciation of every citizen who val
ues the best interests and prosperity
of the district.
All honor to the conservative, bus
iness-like miners All honor to the
liberal, progressive operators!
There is safety for community,
state or nation when its interests are
in the hands of such men.

Referring to the property OF the
Greene Consolidated Company Colonel
I}rpathitt was kind enough to deS-
cribc it in detail to a reporter for Inc
Citizen.
The early history of the Cananea
mines, like most OF those in Mexico,
is purely traditional Here the ola

Spanish of Canaan; and here these

but failed to realize the immense
wealth in the beyond.
The Cananea range cXtenIs along
the Sonora river and lies south OF
the Huachuca and Bisbee mountains.
On the east is the Ajo range ana on
the west the Sierra Azules. The Can
anca range proper is long low range,

bOniferous lime stone, averaging less
than one quarter of mile in width
and extending some seven miles in
length, at places dipping under the

No fossils have as yet been found in
the Cananea mountains so that it is dit
licult to tell to what geological age the
formation belongs. The fact, that gra-
mite, gneiss and qua rtz-syenete occur
Immediately to the west, and underly-
ing the surrounding strata, we may
safely assume that the lime carbonate
is that of upper paleozio time, and the
only remaining remnant of very deep
and extensive deposit, which covered
this whole section before the uplift-
ing of what is now the Cananea range.
Some fifty miles to the north, in the

this same lime belt. is places over one

here must have exceeded ten thousand

Mr. Melluish located them two years
ago, and has since been working them
in small way. In the past few
months the price of niclIe has gone
UP from 40 cents. to 81 per pound, and
Fthe value OF these mines has consc-
quently enhanced. Mr.. Molush now

The Salvation Army
Work in Tucson,

In a dispatch from Yuma, a few
days ago. it was stated that the people
in charge of the Salvation Army work
there had given it up as bad job
and gone to ranching. Tucson Is
worse than Yuma in the light OF SAL
walton Army worker. but the local
force continues its work against all
odds The Salvation Army first es-
tablishcd a branch in Tucson about
eight months ago, when Ensign Hawk
and his wife came. They worked un-
ceasingy for five months when Mr..
Hawk was released on furlough. and
Captain Stooksbury, who came here
from Bishee three months ago. took
charge Capt Stooksbury is one of the
girls who sells the War Cry on the
streets. She is assisted in the work
BY Lieutenant Parker and by Mr.. and
Mrs Hawk, who act in the capacity
Of soldiers.
Can't. StOoksbury acknowledges that
the work has not been as successful In
Tucson as ii might have been. and as
il generally is elsew here, but the at
tendance at the meetings held in the
hall after the street meeting Is on the
increase. and the local workers trust
that the work will he more successful
in the future Capt Stooksbury and
her lieutenants do not get much time

they see many opportunities to do so.
They are handicapped by the fact that
they do not speak the Spanish lam
guage.
Col French. who has just visited
Tucson, has been on a evangelistic
tour with General Booth and Consul
Booth Tucker He left them at FL
Paso. The Salvation Army represent
atives here thirk that the work OF the
Rev. Merton Smith may held them.
They have adjourned their meetings
several evenings to visit the services
at the gospel tent. MFR. Smiths work
is OF the same nature as theirs. as they
both have one common foe. AS he
is strongly intrenched in Tucson. they
feel that 1t will do we'll to join forces
in the fight.

N POLIcEMAN'S hat shot of a
~ burglary, a purse snatched from
a lady's belt and reported high
way robbery was the total of last nights
carnival of crime in Birmingham. These
were all that were reported to the police
up to / o'clock this morning.
About 1890 o'clock last night a negro
shot the top off Policeman Patton's hat
in Fifth alley, between Twenty-fifth and
Twenty-sixth streets. The muzzle of the
double-barrel shotgun was SO close to
the policeman's head that the powder
burnt his hat and singed his hair. 1t was
a miracle that he was not killed, and had
he not ducked his head as he shot at the
negro simultaneously. the load of shot
would have taken off a portion of his
skull.
Policemen Eagan and Patton were to-
gether and both shot at the negro, and 1t
is believed that he was seriously wound
ed, for he fell to his knees just after one
of the shots was fired. Policeman Pat
ton was stunned by the shot, but the
other policeman pursued the negro until
he escaped In the dark
Last night the two policemen went to
Fifth alley and Twenty street to
watch some goods which had been stolen
from the residence of c. w. Frobos, at
Fifth avenue and Twenty-sixth street
earlier in the night. The burglars had
hidden it in corner of the fence down
the alley and 1t was found there The
policemen were watching it in hopes that
the negroes would return. They secreted
themselves in a small clubhouse and had
been waiting there about an hour when
