 was coming in from Douglas when my ticket blew out of the window The conductor sent me to hunt for il while he brought the other folks into Bsbee. l failed to find it, consequent ly no damage suit. l walked across to Billy Mulligan's grading camp. Il sneaked into the kitchen and ate ev erything in sight, which caused Billy afterward to call me a con-summ- ate hog. He was right but l will not sQueal, though I did little grunting that night.
 About o'clock Billy, who had been trying to stimulate the trade in DOT ter the day before, got up and drank a pint of alcohol, of a tugawala in a glass jar, and it jared him percepti- bly.
 Being an old friend of mine, Billy offered me the job of elevator boy in his commissary but 1 declined as my duties as mayor of Don Luis would soon interfere with the situation. Billy gave me plug of splitting to- bacco as big as the block over which Mary Queen of Scots, lost her pretty head, and l started off toward the mines, full of contentment and hot cakes. They have just adveItised for a young lady assistant for the post office service in Don Luis. Business being more or less quiet there just at present, she will be expected to put in her extra time in such light diver sions as cooking, washing, saving wood, unloading ties, holding scrap CTS, etc.
 Don Luis has put in a new water works system consisting of a brand new forty gallon barrel from Naco I came across an imposing hoisting plant which proved to be the Calumet and Pitsburg. They are down about 700 feet and expect to strike the big thing in about 300 feet more, if it is at home when they get there. Just here the Copper Queen elevated standard guage leaves the Bisbee branch and takes to the hills. The grading is nearly completed. Follow ing this grade about half a mile we come to the Lowell. The Lowell is going straight down, and are determin- ed to have a good thing or have no thing at all. Down in the canyon on the right is a little city of A tents, where a small army of frijole washers and mescal fighters fold their arms in slumber just as the sun goes down. As l came to the Lowell shaft bunch of miners came up so wet that the moss was beginning to grow on their boots. They were wet on the outside and dry on the inside, but 1 could do nothing for them as I was dry on both sides. Judging from the size of the dump, concluded that the shaft must be half way to China
 Several big electric conductors ran down into the shaft, which furnish the miners with all the necessary light on the subject of developing the Lowell The positively no admit tance' notice had gone of on a vaca- tion. so I stepped fearlessly in, to find a husky cog hoist which takes no chances on the treacherous friction rolls while working over mems heads in a shaft.
 At this point the grade switches back to the Gardner which doesn't put on many frills and whose hoist was profoundly quiet at the time. Then the road makes few short compound switch backs and acute angles and arrives at the Calumet and Arizona. These works are the biggest spud in
 
 the pot. The first thing that looms up Is an ore bin IA feet long and so high the snow can be found on top some months in the year. The big bins looks like they were meant to hold democratic majorities, while a string of about thirty ore cars are awaiting the construction of short elevated tramway before beginning the work of filling the great receptacle with high grade ore. The train of cars looks as long as the republican national platform, and hadn't half as many holes in 1t. The big hoist has not yet arrived at the mine, but from other preparations must be a husky machine. The gallows frame, which is nearly completed is four feet higher than that at the spray, and is of the finest steel work throughout, while five big boilers are already in place with which to generate power for the operation of the mine. It is no secret that this company has
