J. S. Carmichael, the Prescott
mining engineer, who has been
here examining the property of the
Black Rock Mining Co. Ltd, spent
Sunday at the ORC Grande and ex-
pressed great surprise at the
unusual size and richness of the
ore body. Mr.. Carmichael, like
many others who have not person
ally, but gained their ideas from
heresav, said that he had hereto
fore had no conception Of The real
magnitude Of the ORC Grande, but
after going through some Of the
workings, said that the ORC Grande
alone was sufficient to support a
large town when once it had re-
duction works running.
Mr.. II. H. Keays, the assayer for
the Black Rock Mining Co., Ltd,
was in town the first of the week.
Mr.. Keays visited the ORC Grande
Sunday and speaks in the highest
terms of the showings to be seen at
the ORC Grande and says the prop
erty where he is located is very
similar in many ways to the big
mine, but sufficient development
work has not yet been done to de
termine the extent of the mineral
ization. Mr.. Keays has recently
completed a furnace at the mine
and is now in shape to do all kinds
oi assaying.

Gilbert & Rowe have dissolvd
partnership, Abner Rowe retiring.
In the future, as in the past, you
will find w. J. Gilbert at the old
stand ready to meet his oldcustom-

is going prospecting and mining
and in the future will be found

off he will be at home, especially if
he takes it off at Gilbert, the place
he helped make what it is today,
one of the best mining camps in
this part Of the country.

betrays the trust reposed in him by
the franchise of ctreTCus people.
CAST one mere gem need be mentioned
and that is the strong belief in Ger
man hearts in the brotherhood of man.
TIE German realizes that all geograph-
zeal and national lines have been arbi-
trcily drawn by the Old World rulers,
therefore the cosmopolitan spirit has al
ways been strong in the fatherland
and this has given the Teuton a broad
horizon. Thereby he learned to ap-
preciate the good qualities of others.
He dances with the Frenchman, medi-
tates with the Englishman, drinks with
the Russian, practices music with the
italian, dreams. with the Pole and
Spaniard, bargains with the Yankee,
and yet thinks for himself. That is
what has made him such an excellent
colonist and such a ready American.
Our country has been settled by all
nations of Europe. and a cosmopolitan
spirit is demanded by the genius of
our flag. Let us profit by all and love
them all, and write Columbia's proc
lamation of the successful solution of
the race problem in letters of gold
and light which will be seen and read
from afar. and will make crowned
Europe tremble for it's scepters that
have too long kept the people asunder.
Ideas everywhere sweep away scepters.
This will mean a greater America, and
the German American will become Co
lumbias worthy partner for life. a
good, loyal, and patriotic American

WORLDS QUEEREST PETS.
Prof. Spencer of the New York Aqua
rum Has Them.

Prof. Spencer of the New York Aqua
rum Has Them.
If you were asked what the very
queerest pets in the world were you
would no doubt guess and guess and
never be able to guess right unless it
happened that you had been in New
York and seen them.
The queerest pets that ever were are
in New York They are the particular
pride and pets of Prof. Spencer, the
fine old scientist in the New York
aquarium, which is in the building that
once was the Castle garden on the
famous old battery.
In beautiful row of clear, flashing
round glass tanks on an upper floor
of the aquarium are these especial
pets. AS you approach the tanks you
behold glowing little groups of color
and artistic blending and mingling of
fantastic weeds and shining stones.
Then, when you peer into the tanks,
you see what at first will seem to you
just like particularly handsome and
gorgeous flowers growing all over the
little rockeries. Some Of the flowers
look like dainty pink and white and
yellow and purple and crimson dahl
las. Others look almost like daisies
with lace-like petals. Others look like
little star flowers, all pure white and
perfect. These flowers are of all sizes,
from tiny ones barely large enough to
see to great ones almost large enough
to fill a saucer
But If you will watch these "fiow-
ers'' for few minutes you will jump
suddenly, for all at once you will see
one move its petals. Then you will
see another and another do 1t. Slowly
the petals unfold or contract, with lit
tie jerking movements, sometimes
twining in the water like little snakes.
Tap smartly on the table on which
the tanks stand and like lightning all
the petals will have disappeared. These
sea flowers are not really flowers at
ALL They are living creatures, known
as sea anemones.
For many years Prof. Spencer has
tended and fed them, and the little
animated flowers actually have come
to know him.. When he feeds them he
puts little bit of clam on the end of
a long, pointed stick, and puts 1t care
fully down into the water until it is
near the anemone. 1t did not take long
for the beautiful things to understand
it, and where at first they used to
withdraw their petals and shut up
tightly when the stick approached, now
they Irvine gracefully and stretch their
dainty arms out as far as they can go
in order to reach the It'd bit.
1t is a wonderful lesson in the Won
derful ways of nature to see these
signs of reasoning intelligence in crea-
lures so low in the order of develop
ment that they seem to be far more
nearly a vegetable than an animal.

DANIEL HOGAN, '''''' : Con-: e.. '.".,'

ISOLATED with Mr.. Harte as collabora-
tor in several dramatic pieces, so that
his selection as biographer of Harte
may have been the authors personal
choice. 1t will be a matter of regret
that an American who has come in
contact with the life OF the West as
Harte knew it was not chosen for the
biographical work. Notwithstanding
the fact that Harte had become thor
oughly identified with English man
ners and customs, it was the early
California life which gave him mate
rial for the stories which made the
greatest success for him. Some one
has suggested that Mark Twain would
have been Just the man for the place.
He certainly knew the life of early
California mining camps-he knew
Harte in those days, he continued for
years an intimate mountaineering
and for a considerable time he was
fellow American transplanted to Eng
lish soil.

1t has been a long time since Kip
ling has published anything which'may
be called a volume. kim" might be
a book after writing which the author
could die and feel sure of future fame,
but the vast majority Of readers who
ever were interested in Kipling hope
that kim" may not be the last. OF
course, it will not be. A volume of
"Just-So Stories" will be ready short
ly, and as a distinguishing feature
many of the illustrations will have
been done by the author Besides
this, there is now published in Eng
land a paper which Kipling has writ
ten and called a guide" to the naval
review Kipling's long experience on
the warships of the English navy
makes him competent to write of the
steel fighters which will make their
peaceful parade on review during the
summer. In one of the July magazines
there appears a story by Kipling, en-
titled Wireless" in which Marconis
progress in wireless telegraphy is one
of the themes.
This new work of Kipling-his book
and short stories-reminds me that
not long ago a verse maker whose
name and fame will not weight him
down with riches nor yet cause him
to be remembered long, wrote an at
tack on Kipling which purported to be
an account of his passing" There
are two things equally disagreeable-
the belittling of a great man and the
hysteria over him. Kipling has suf-
fered from both, and yet his greatness
has not been affected nor the quality
of his work injured by either.

Frank T. Bullen is going to. spend a
part of his summer in this country.
Last year Mr.. Bullen paid his first Wis
it to Nantucket and several other New
England whaling ports since he sailed
from one of them before the mast. The
sailor-author found much to interest
him-indeed, he wrote many charming
sketches of the old seaport townsville
retired whalers the ships and the peo-
pie whom he had come back to see. 1t
is not at all unlikely that Mr.. Bullen
is making the trip this summer In
search for material for another vol
ume of sea and sailor stories. The
New England coast Is full of just the
kind of material that Mr.. Bullen can
best use.

Booth Harrington is now on his way
abroad, where he will spend his hon
eymoon. On his return. the gentleman
from Indiana will hope to take his
seat in the Indiana Legislature. At
the same time he will continue to
write-because writing has become a
habit with him. MIR. Harrington does
all of his work late at night-very oft
en- he works through the entire night.
His first draft of a story is in the
form of pen and pencil sketches of the
scenes which he has pictured out in
his mind When he has transferred
these to paper he begins to write the
story.
Not long ago Mr.. Harrington was
reported as saying that he was tired
of the conventiality of society, the
falseness of modern life, etc, and that
he proposed to retire to some country
spot, where he could be apart from
the haunts of men. Tarkington's best
friends do not credit the story. Every
