Frank Dillon recently shipped a
car load of ore from his Parnell prop
erty, near Hillside. to the Val Verde
smelter which netted him over three
hundred dollars. The Hillside coun-
try is going to come to the front as a
mining district in the near future, as
there are a number of fine prospects
in that section, and when capital
turns its attention to that part of the
county there are going to be some big
surprises in the mining industry.

At Tombstone new ground is being
opened on the 200 foot level and the
new pumps ON that level are all work
ing smoothly, though there are in an
enterprise of that kind, difficulties en-
countered and overcome daily that
would prove embarrassing to little
mine, with nothing at hand to work
with. The continuous and rapid sink
ing of the shaft far below water level
is fine exhibition of the victory of
mind over matter; the success of
human inventions for the removal of
natural obstacles. About a hundred
tons of Fore are now being shipped
daily.-Tucson Star.

who has bond on the property, to ar

John Ross and Charles Anderson
who are the present owners of the old
Kimball mine, on Lynx creek, have
just completed taking the water from
it and are expecting a mining expert
here in a few days to examine the
property with a view Iof working it.
The Kimball was formerly owned by
Geo. W. Curtis, who built mill on
ii to work the ore, but the enterprise
proved a failure, and it was said at
the time that this fastened Mr.. Cur
it's death, as he had built great hopes
on the success of the venture. The
deepest shaft on it is 100 feet and
there are two others of less depth.
Considerable free gold ore was found
in it during the time it was being
worked by Mr.. Curtis.
The Jerome News is informed that a
bulkhead in one of the levels in the
United Verde mine was opened last
week and the level explored, and found
entirely free from fire. AS to fire the
mine is said to be in better condition
than for years. With the fire under
control, an abundance of coal and
coke, and the increased capacity OF
the smelter, the company's pay roll
should soon be much .larger than ever
before in its history.
Sunday there we're eleven cars OF

NJ c. Parmley and his brother, +.
G. Parmley, went out to the property
of the Dividend Consolidated Gold
Mining company, in the Big Bug dis
trict, this morning to look over the
property. Preparations are going
ahead rapidly for increasing the ca
pacity of the mill and starting work
on the property on larger scale than
it has ever been prosecuted before
Bids have been received from several
firms for the additional machinery
which will be installed as soon as the
bids are accepted and the machinery
can be shipped and put in place. The

At Imperial, better known as the
Old Boot mine, the railroad survey
from Red Rock is being revised where
it runs through the mountains, which
work, it is expected, will be finished
in a week or two. Mr.. Staunton thinks
the construction of the road will re-
quire about four months after the
final survey. At the mine about $50
men are now employed. The force Is
not quite so large as it was. as much
of the preliminary work is finished.
While no men have been discharged,
the place of an occasional workman
who quits for the purpose of taking
advantage of other opportunities, has
not been filed. The reason is that
they are already taking out great
deal of ore that cannot be reduced
until the plant is put in, nor shipped
till the railroad is built. 1t will take
a year perhaps to build the big reduc-
ton plant but the shipment of ore
will begin just as soon as the railroad
is ready to handle it. The mine, Mr..
Staunton says, has every indication OF
being one of the big ones of the terri
tory. There is lots of ore and all of a
high grade.-Tucson Star.

for a year without opening up any

HazIehurst Comes Out Victori-
Gus in Series With Columbus
and Pratt City Clubs.

Hazlehurst's crack ball team
arrived over the Southern rail-
way at 11:30 p. m. July 9TH,
and after good nights rest the
members were prepared to put
up hard fightMonday afternoon
When the game was called at
four O'Clock p. m. there was a
large crowd present at the fair
grounds and they had the sais-
faction, or more correctly speak
ing, the dissatisfaction Of seeing
Columbus treated to a merciless
drubbing Taylor and Ford, the
crack battery which won such
widespread reputation with the
Chickasaws last season, held
down the points for Hazlehurst
and confined the locals to one
measley score, while they piled
up seven during the progress of
the game.
The team which was pitted
against Hazlehurst was made up
of both Columbus and Pratt City
men, but there is as much rea-
son to call it a Columbus team
as there is to call the team which
Hazlehurst claims by the name
of that town, as it is made up of
players from various places,
Ford and Taylor being from
Memphis and the remainder
coming from Holly Springs, OK
ford and other towns along the
Illinois Central railroad, there
being only one bonafide resident
of Hazlehurst on the team. But
no matter where the members of
the Hazlehurst team hail from
no one can deny the fact that
they are crack ka-j jack ballsplay-
ers, and the locals were COM
PEELED to put three pitchers in
the box Monday afternoon before
one could be found who could
hold them down at all. OBJ
went in first and the alacflty
with which the visitors got onto
his curves soon caused his dis
placement and Hill was substi-
tuted in hi stead. Hills
sometimes hard to displace, but
this one was knocked out Of the
box in short order and Mcclure
put in. Mcclure pitched the
remainder of the game in good
style. but the lead which the Wis
itors had secured in the begin
ming could not be overcome and
they won with ease.
Hazlehurst was again victo-
rious Friday afternoon, winning
the game by a score of 5 to 2,
and on yesterday afternoon the
game resulting in a score of L
to @ in favor of Hazlehurst, the
game being one of the prettiest
ever seen on the local diamond.

Will be Moved in to NewCity
Hall at an Early Date.

That portion of the new city
which is to be occupied by the
municipal executive offices is
nearing completion and at the
meeting Of the city council which
was held Friday night it was de-
cided to move in just as soon as
practicable. The matter of the
purchase of furniture for the Va
rious offices was left to the finance
committee and it is understood
that new and complete furnish
ings for the various offices will
have to be purchased, as the fur
niture in the old building was of
the most primitive character and
exceedingly meagre in quantity.
The greater part Of the meet
ing was consumed in passing up
on the regular monthly accounts,
the only matter ofspublic interest
that was disposed of being the
passage of a resolution increasing
the rates charged on horses and
COWS which are caught running
at large on the streets and taken
up by the poundkeeper. Here
after the impounding fees for
will be S1.00 and for COWS

most conservative estimate OF
tonnage now carried each year
is 125, 800 tons. thus exceeding by
%, 800 what Mr.. Burton says is
needed to be acceptable as
navigable with popula-
ton of 388, ,243. With made
quate transportation and sparse
population this vast wealth is
produced. What an empire will
this be if we provide means for
the product of farm, mill, factory
and machine shops to reach the
worlds market.
Europe shows how Belgium
thrives with population of 450
to the square mile. If we only
had 200 to the square mile of this
splendid possession it would
amount to almost as much as the
joint population of Mississippi and
Alabama. No life has attained
its full possibilities, none of US
here but have failed to do that
which we should have done, or
has done that which he should
not have done at some time. In
the beautiful story of Faust we
are shown a splendidIy equipped
man whose familiar friend is the
arch fiend. After leading him
into every excess and sin. every
blasphemy against all that is sa-
cred, the fiend left him for a time,
and his better impulses asserting
themselves he begun reclaiming
the vast salt marshes bordering
the North sea. After years Of
work a fruitful land dotted with
villages intersected by canals and
diversified by factory stacks, wind
mills and church spires evidenced
a thrifty, happy people. As an
old man Faust dies when the fiend
claims his soul for the excesses
of youth, but the good he did,
the blessings from the thousands
of grateful people living upon the
reclaimed lands outweighed his
early failure and his soul was
saved.
So this work of ours offers con-
stant encouragement and inspira-
ton, and many youthful errors
and indiscretions may be atoned |
for by faithful work towards the
creation of this empire within
our borders. An empire not of |
the krag and the sword, but of
the spade and pick, or the plough
share and hoe.
This superb domain lies a sleep |
ing beauty amid tall cypress and
waving moss, bordered by still
lakes and purling brooks, it's feet |
washed by the waters of the ma
jestic Tombigbee, and its silence
only broken by the call of the
wild duck or cooling doves.
1t awaits, like Galatea of old,
the touch of it's masters mind.
Only the hand of Columbia can
summon to activity its dormant |
energies and call into strenuous
life its boundless possibilities.
This mighty conquest is one in
which all mankind is interested; |
no creed, no politics, should affect
its consideration. No arum or
fife, no bugle call, nor sad mis-
erere from the swift fingered angel |
of death, on the musket pipes of
embattled hosts are needed to
win. No orphans curse, nor
widows moan, nor looks of scowl-
ing hate await those who accom-
p'ish conquest, but the applause
of grateful people, and the
eternal approval of a good con-
science.
