The Markeen Copper Co.

From information at hand, it seems
that the Markeen Copper company
owning Il number of valuable claims in
the Greelee district, failed to do their
annual labor last year, and at mid
night January l, all of the claims
were relocated, and in some instances
as many as four locations were made
on the same property by different per
sons. The close proximity of these
claims to exceedingly valuable mines,
and the fact that several of them are
located on the same lodes, makes these
new locations very desirable, and
therefore lengthy litigation is prom
ised. The Markeen company has been
selling stock in the east for several
years past, and have an advertisement
in the Mining and Engineering Jour
nal stating that their "mines and
works" are located at Clifton, Arizona.
which is misrepresentation on its
face, for the company never had
''works" here, unless it could include
its horse whlm, long since idle, under
that head. The Era called the atten-
ton of the public to the false adver-
tising of this outfit several times.
This company was promoted and man
aged by eastern people and doubtless
a large amount of stock sold. Now
that the property has been lost to the
company it will doubtless be heralded
throughout the east as "Another Ari-
iona Mining Swindle," which will give
the territory an unsavory reputation,
and act to the detriment of local peo-
pie who are operating lesitimately,
and spending every dollar they can
get hold of in the development of their
property Era.

william Herring at 20.

1t was very graceful thing the
young men of the Eiks club did last
night when they presented William
Herring with memorial cane with a
conventional gold head.
MIR Herring doesn't need cane
even as an ornament. There isn't II
man in this town who will ever see
William Herring lean on a cane. He
isn't constructed that way. But the
cane may be handy for him, on oc-
casion, for other purposes.
Villa N Herring is 20 years old
today. And what fine cherub he is.
Is there any man in this town younger
than William Herring in heart and
mind. Who has a clearer head, a bet
ter complexion, a sturdier stride!
Who enjoys life better? Is there any
youngster at the bar W ho cares to take
crack at him in court or out of it?
Seventy years of youth is a splendid
endowment! William Herring ought
to be happy man and we think he is.
fIe is loved by young and old alike.
He has made his impress on his COM
munity. He has reached the front
rank of his profession. He is man
among men. His charm attracts the
worthy.
The young men of the Elks club
paid signal tribute to their own worth
iness when they honored William

Youthful Financiers.

John Kendricb Bangs reputation as
humorist is firmly fixed but such
small reuown as fuancier which he
possesses Is oyershadowed by the tai
ent displayed by his two younger sons,
aged, respectively, about 10 and II
years. Mr.. Bangs allowed the young
men 25 cents each week as spending
money, which amount seemed to be
ample, in view Of the fact that all ev-
penses such ss car fares and club dues
are paid by their dotiug father
Mr.. Bangs observed that the lads
did not save much out of their allow
auce, and wishing TO create a spiIit Of
tLrf, in their young bosoms made
proposition to give them each Mon
day an amount equal to what they had
saved from their spending money the
previous week, IN addition TO the reg
ular allowance. The boys put iaeiF
