CASEY COPPER CLAIMS
A Rich Strike in the Dos Cabezas
Mountains.

T. J. Seaman, T. F. INLAND and ]. s.
Kraft recently secured bond on what
is known as the Casey group of copper
claims, located near the old Silver
Camp. twelve miles from Wilcox, says
the Range News.
They have been running a tunnel into
the hill on a small ore body, and not
gaining enough depth. they started a
shaft in the tunnel. At a depth of IS
feet they struck a magnificent ore
body. Last Monday they were down
ten feet in solid ore. and have yet no
idea of the magnitude of the deposit.
They will continue to sink to depth
of 80 feet and then commence drifting
to ascertain its dimensions. The ore
is OF high grade, showing chloride of
silver and brittle silver with copper
and gold. Assays show the value to
be as follows: Silver. "a ounces to the
ton; copper. 12la per cent. and gold IS.
They are making preparations to take
out the ore as fast as it can be packed
to the wagon road, which is about one
mile distant. Five hundred ore sacks;
We're sent up to their camp Wednesday,
The many friends of these energetic
young men will no doubt be pleased to
learn of their good fortune and at the
same time they have demonstrated
that the Dos CabeZas mountains fur
nish n splendid field for the miners
who have the nerve to get down be-
meath the surface.

to this pool is n narrow rock channel,
from which little water flows, but is
soon lost to sight a few hundred yards
below. y measurement of the main
stream just above the pool showed
volume of ninety-siX feet of cubic
water passing each second. but this en-
fire flow disappeared in the basin and
the stream bed for miles below is per-
fectly dry. About seven miles below
this interesting pool were found several
springs, one of them in a large hole
twenty-five feet in diameter and TWEEN
ty feet deep. which at times are empty
and again filled with water. 1t is
thought that the water which disap-
pears in the upper pool flows under
ground deep below in the gravels,
which form the bed of the stream, and
in times of rainfall heavier than usual
appears again in part in the large
springs below.-New Orleans Picayune.

DO YOU KNOW

how fascina ting English history really
is? That England, during the past
thousand years, has given to our liter
allure more heroes and heroines than all
the rest of the world and ages? What
do you know of the private and per-
sonal lives of her queens, who. as well
as being stately sovereigns with pas
sions of love and hate, We're living,
palpitating women?
Do you know of that king and queen
who stood barefooted, and ''all naked
from their waists upward" in the
sreat hall of Westminster? Or what
plumbers dog licked the blood of Il
king? Or why Henry VII hanged his
four English mastiffs as traitors? Or
.Shat king apologized for taking so
long to die? or why Marlborough and
mis- duchess We're disgraced?
Do you know the story of Thomas a
Beckett and the Emir's daughter? OF
fair Rosamond Clifford's bower in the
labyrinth at Woodstock, and the tell
tale silken thread on Henry's golden
spur that led to her becoming Il nun?
or Richard II and the fatal trap-door
of Vidomar? OF the dreadful warning
that hung over the bed of Isabella OF
Angouleme? OF the queen who was
discovered in London, disguised as
COOk-maid?
Do you know how the mere fact that
he Duchess of Marlborough putting
on. by mistake. the queens gloves,
changed, as Voltaire says, the destinies
of Europe? Or why the great Eliza
beth and her prime minister had to dea!
secretly with Catherine de- Medici's
tniIors? Or what that which passed
between Nan Boleyn and King Hal
beneath the yeW-tree in the clustered
shade of Sopewell nunnery, meant to
Nclsely?
Those who are interested may have
specimen pages of a work that will
show how English history may be had
in quite different way from that pre-
scented by Hume, or Rapin, or Macau-
lay, or Guizot, or Hallam, or Froude.

THE DRY FORK.

In the work of stream measurement
which is being carried on by the di-
vision of the United States geological
survey as Il part of the investigation of
the countrys water resources, interest
ing conditions are often met with, es-
pecially in the west. where the pecu-
liarities of climate produce many sur
prising phenomena. Mr.. c. T. Prall
one of the photographers of the sur
vey, has recently reported the existence
of stream whose water in the sum-
mer season, entirely vanishes midway
in it's course. The river is known as
the Dry Fork. a small stream is north

More people have succumbed to the
wiles of Cupid during the past four
years in New Jersey than ever before
This is shown by the fact that 81. 746
people were married during that time
according to the bureua of vital statis-

MINING IN GRAHAM co.
A SIN elter for Pima-Another Strike
in Gold Gulch.

Good news of mines and mining are
reported every week from Graham
county Among other incidents of the
past week the Copper Era reports the
folowing:
Mayor J. II. Nuttan OF Pima signed
a deed last Friday transferring all OF
Block 50. Pima village survey. TO the
Union Copper Smelling company, who
were represented in the deal by H. W.
Wernse of St. Louis. Mr.. Wernse said
that the property was secured for a
smelter site and that large smelter
would be erected there at once.
Word reached Clifton this week of n
rich gold strike having been made by
George Stevens on some OF his property
near Gold Gulch. Some OF the speci-
mems are literally plastered with sheets
OF gold. 1t is said that SO per day can
easily be taken out by pounding the
ore in a metat. Some of the specimens
are worth as much as SIS. Some very
1ic-- specimens were taken out of the
same property last year. There Is
much excitement over the strike in that
section OF the district. which Will re-
vive the interest in gold prospecting.

GLASGOW GOOD TENANT PRIZES

n curious and interesting plan has
been adopted in Glasgow by certain
landlords who, having improved much
OF their slum property. have been nat
urally DESTROYS to keep it in good con-
dition. The plan consists in Offering
prizes to tenants who behave them
selves well and pay their rent prompt
~. All tenants who fulfill these condi-
tons are allowed in summer to live
rent free for a fortnight, so that If they
take a holiday they need not pay two
rents. The plan has worked we'll so
far. and over Go per cent of the ten
ants have claimed the prize.-London

The latest we have heard from G.. w.
Hull is that he is in New York arrang
ing for thirty ton smelter to be put
on his property in Mescal gulch. De-
velopment work on the 101. 102 and 103
by the Venture Hill Mining company
showed those claims in a favorable
light; since that work on the Verde
Apex group. which lies just west of Mr..
Hulrs property. has uncovered ore
that dips in his direction. This late
showing of the Verde Apex is respon-
sible for his early decision to bring on
a smelter. The intention is to put up
a thirty ton jacket. Mr.. Hull is tireless
in his efforts to develop this property
and we are very anxious to see him
succeed.-Jerome Reporter.

Sisters
He HISTORY DATES Blck TO 1877
The Story Of Fru'tIess Search and Its
Ultimate Ending, for Two Sisters Who
Had not been Heard From Until
Now, Since the Family Separ
ated Years Ago

The final settlement of the estate OF
Charles Skalivorda, in probate court
here December Both, will end one of the
most interesting cases in ManitowOc
county.
The property was left by Skalivorda
who died in June 1901, to his two sisters
for whom up to the time of his death,
he had been vainly searching. But
firm in the belief that they lived, he
made no will, avowing his intention,
that the estate should become theirs
when they were found.
The story dates back to 1877 when
the Skalivorda family-two brothers
and two sisters-were in Denver, Colo
RADIO. The death of the parents, broke
up the family, Charles Skalivorda com:
ing to Francis Creek, where by dInt of
hard work, he became prosperous. The
sisters also became separated, and no
trace was found Of them until recently.
The brothers spent considerable time

sisters, but up to the time of Charles
death, were unsuccessful
After Charles death the search was
continued by cousin in Chicago, who
finally located the girls who had SUE
sequently married and lived in Boze-
man. Montana, and Saratoga, Wyom-
ing respectively. Through his efforts
their identity and claim to the estate
was established and the property will
become theirs after the court settles
affairs.

for the reason that his son had acquired

gambling OF tnis character. The result
is an determination of the devices in the
neighborhood.
This is a commendable move. Slot
machines are to be found in nearly
every salocn in the country, although in
direct violation of the law, and their
disturbing influences can only be OBJ
waited by means of o policy such as
