BISBEE AND DON LUIS
To Be Connected by Elecric Road in
 Furtherance of Mining Enterprise

Henry P. Barbour of Los Angeles, of the firm of Henry P. Barbour com pany, dealer in real estate, has been in the city for the past two days on important real estate business, being nothing less than closing the final de tails of the transfer of eighteen mining claims near Don Luis, and owned by MT. Hull, to a company of capitalists of which MT. Barbour is the head and among whom are several prominent citizens of Los Angeles.
 Further than this the company, which at present is in process of for nation. has in contemplation the building of the street railway line about which we heard so much talk several weeks ago. In this enterprise will be local capital, as well as foreign and it is stated on good authority that L. C. Shattuck, president of the Miners and Merchants bank of this city, will be one of the heaviest stockholders.
 In conversation with MT. Barbour, at the Copper Queen Hotel on Tuesday he briefly outlined the plan and pur- poses of his company.
 Tn a small way" said MT. Barbour i've intend to follow the general idea of Colorado Springs. Not that we ever expect to have another Colorado Springs here. but our idea is to pre- pare at Don Luis a beautiful and healthy townsite that will serve as the residence portion of Bisbee and the surrounding camps, and as a further inducement, we propose to connect Bisbee and these surrounding camps by an electric road.
 We have unbounded faith in the frrtr mining districts, and as Bisbee grows in population and wealth we can fore see the building of a nice residence portion in the vicinity that we have selected for the building of the town l-Bisbee Review.

CENTENARIAN IN JAIL.
Aged Mexican Serving Time in Tucson
 For Smuggling.

Unless some arrangement unforeseen is made for the release of Leandro Ruiz from the Pima county jail he will probably spend the rest of his natural days in prison cell, but these promise to be few, as Ruiz claims to be 1O2 years old, and judging from his looks he is at least that old.
 Ruiz is an old Mexican smuEgler. He was indicted by the last United States grand jury for that offense, pleaded guilty, and on account of his extreme age Was given the minimum sentence of three months ard $100 fine. He has served the three months bat the authorities cannot release him un- til the fine is paid or he takes the pauper's oath. The latter action he shows no inclina tion to take, as the jail is his only home and comfort able berth under the direction of Sheriff Murphy he considers prefer able to freedom and possible starva- tion. Ruiz seems perfectly satisfied with his life in jail, and will only take the pauper's oath on being assured of some better provision for his care on the outside.-Tucson Post.

A SUCCESSFUL CONTRACTOR
What Tom Lowell Has Done Since
 Leaving Phoenix.

Many Phoenix people will remember Tom Lowell of Denton, Texas, the man who built Arizona's handsome capitol building, and will be pleased to know of his continued success in his chosen line of activity.
 Since leaving here MT. Lowell has built a handsome courthouse at Waco, Texas, and but recently turned over to the officials at Crowley, Louisiana, new parish courthouse, the construc- tiCn of which cost s75,000 The Crowlet' Daily News in recent issue devotes the greater part of the front page to d write-up of the new courthouse and it's builder, printing the pictures of both.
 Most complimentary things are said both of MT. Lowell and his son, Ed Lowell, who was much of the time in charge of construction and who was also associated with his father in the building of the Arizona capitol.

YEAGER CANYON COPPER co.
Installation of New Property-Deep

J. B. Tomlinson has completed the installation of a lot of new mining machinery for the Yaeger Canyon
 Copper company, says the Prescott Journal-Miner. The machinery con- sists of three eighty horse power boil CTS, q ten drill air compressor, and a
 140 horse power hoist The air re- ceivers to be used in connection with air compressorS went astray in tran sit having been consigned to an over
 flow car which was hauled via Fl Paso into southern Arizona, and they have but recently obtained track of them. This has delayed operations somewhat, hut now that they have been located, they will be forwarded promptly and installed in the mine when operations will be commenced on a larger scale than ever before. The shaft on this property is down $50 feet, but with this machinery it can be sunk to a depth of $500 feet for which point the company is aiming to sink. Some of the most systematic mining in this section has been on this property work has been confined entirely to the development of the mine, the parties realizing that the most important thing in connection with mining is to first develop the property and demonstrate the exist encc of mine. after which all things
 can be added. They have large bodies of ore exposed, and many company
 would long ere this have had some sort of a plant on the property. The
 managers of the Yeager Canyon, how | ever, believe in ascertaining the
 amount of ore they can depend on first

QUAINT BATAVIA.


JavA's Picturesque Town and the

Imagine a town Of giant dolls houses
built in Burmese and Japanese style,
trim avenues of beautiful trees, broad,
clean streets and thousands Of grown
up dolls masquerading in oriental fan
cy dress, the picture book Of ones
childhood animated that is Batavia.
The streets are paraded listlessly by
gangs Of blue CARRIED convicts, who
pick up cigar ends. bits Of paper and
fruit peel The cleanliness Of the streets
is astonishing
A man ia Batavia once threw piece
Of banana peel on the ground and,
looking back a moment afterward, he
felt reproached by the sight OF that
wretched piece of peel the only blot
on the immaculate cleanness Of the
streets. For awhile bis dignity fought
with his sense of decency. Then be re-
turned, picked up the offending peel
and--feeling very foolish carried It
until he saw a convenient opportunity
for disposing Of it.

The dress Of the Javanese women

A long strip Of native cloth, called a
