ing whistle blows, he appears upon
the streets in faded garb of ancient
cut. bending upon his cane, looking
neither up nor aside, recognizing no
one, doing his few errands, again to
return from his self-chosen isolation
OF the crowded streets to the greater
seclusion Of his home. He bears ever
a hunted and haggard look.
New Ring Making Machine.
An ingenious labor-saving machine,
which will completely revolutionize the
lingering manufacturing industry of
England. has been devised by Mr.. c. P.
Denkin. Birmingham jeweler. This
machine effects in one almost instan-
taneous operation the work of several
men. A signet ring fresh from the
mold is placed in one tool of the DEN
kin invention, and within the space of
few seconds the inside is fixed, pol
ished and Tapped. The treatment of
the face of the signet is equally simple
and rapid. By means of an ingenious
device 1t is clamped and trained to
revolving surface of special design. In
short space of time the face is fin
ished to perfection. whereas at present
the ring has to pass through the hands
of four skilled workmen. The process
Is so simple that it can be worked by
boy or girl, which means a consider
able economy in the cost of production.

THANKSGIVING

Thanksgiving day again, and how
many people will stop and give thanks
in the true sense Of the word? It is
safe to say that more people will
edeavOr to founder themselves on the 2
American turkey than wear their trou-'
sers out offering thanks for the bene-
fits received upon earth. Since it is
a custom, no one looks for any diff
erent result and for the most part OF
the day is regarded. as one Of pleasure
and a holiday for good Tina Most
of us are constituted that way and
follow the di ctatios Of pleasure on
every occasion and Thanksgiving day
offers such an opportunity.
We do not seem to realize the deep
solemnity of the first Thanksgiving
day ever celebrated on this continent
by our forefathers. 1t happened hits
way:
The first Thanksgiving occurred in |
the Plymouth Colony soon after the
landing of the Pilgrims in 1921. The
little harvest of the settlers had hard
lily been gotten in before the Indians
swooped down upon them and a war
SO to speak ensued.. The colonists
were victorious SO day was appoint
ed as q day Of Thanksgiving to the
Almighty for the bountiful reward
he had bestowed upon a struggling
people.
1t is believed BY the best authoritin-
es that the first celebration too place
in October. as 1t was out Of doors
and lasted nearly a week. In those
times Thanksgiving was celebrated in
the spring and then alternated to the
fall.

WILSON SHANNON.
Another Estimate of Their Stand
 ing to Date.

The contest between Charles NJ. Shannon and Colonel J. F. Wilson for the democratic nomination for delegate to congress has narrowed down to the county of Maricopa. That has been agreed upon by the friends of both candidates and it is claimed by the friends of the one and admitted by the friends of the other that Colonel Wilson has apparently the best of the struggle. The most reliable estimate of the present sit uation to date is as follows: For Wilson-Apache county. 4 votes; Navajo, 6; Mohave, 8; Coconino, g.; Gila, 13; Yavapai, 24. For Shannon Yuma, g; Pima, IS; Santa Cruz, 6; Cochise, 16; Graham, IS. Doubtful Maricopa, 34; Pinal, 8.
 This estimate gives Wilson 64 votes and Shannon 67. The success full candidate must have S7 votes in the convention. With the 34 votes of Maricopa either of the contestants would have more than enough.
 The ultra partisans of Shannon do not concede that Wilson will carry his own county. There is a strong element in Prescott against him. but he is solid on the Jerome side, which is almost as strong as in the Prescott division, and it seems improbable that he should not make some head way in his own town or in the ad- jacent mining camps.
 The Wilson people point out on the other hand that Shannon i. hold ing Graham county only by a hair. The whole lower part of the valley is against him. He is depending upon the more populous district about Clifton and Morenci, which will have a majority of only three in the county convention.
 It is the belief of local politicians that both Graham and Yavapai will send instructed delegations, and that there is no doubt that Shannon will have the support of the former and Wilson of the latter. So this county becomes the battle ground as it was two years ago.-Republican.

THE OUTLAW
 TRACY KILLED.
Officers Surprise Him by Surround ing Him and After a Hot Fight
 Tracy Turns Gun on Himself.
He Was Wounded Twice by the Officers
 Before Taking His Own Life.

The Western Union Telegraph office today received a flash that Out law Tracy had been discovered in eastern Washington and officers were so close in pursuit that he realized escape was impossible and rather than surrender he sent a bullet through his OWL brain killing him instantly.
 A later telegram stated that Sheriff McRea and his posse and the sheriff of another county in eastern Wash ington succeed in locating him and and surrounding him before the lat ter was aware of their presence. A short fight took place between the officers and the outlaw in which the latter was wounded twice. Then it was that he turned the gun on him self and put an end to his own life. The officers escaped being wounded by Tracy's bullets.

The company is well equipped, mechani- cally, to develop the property, hay ing two power drills, compressor, steam holsts and pumps of sufficient capacity to control the water that may be encountered while sinking. Heretofore water has prevented sinking to any considerable depth.

 In the horseshoe range of moun- tains, about fifteen miles from Sum- init station, on the Arizona and New Mexico railroad, is an old abandoned opal mine, which was successfully operated about twenty years ago. Two miners were killed by the In dians there in 1885, and since then the mine has not been worked, the miners evidently being convinced that owing to the killing of the two men, there is no luck in opals.
 R. D. French had a big piece of ore in town today which had a very good look. It was taken from the Tip Top mine of the Monarch group owned by him and his father and To- cated about two and a half miles from town. It was taken from depth of twenty feet and assayed S65 in gold, and judging from its looks would go four or five per cent copper. The Tip Top ledge is from two to three feet wide and has well defined walls, the hanging wall be- ing porphyry and the foot wall gran ite.
