WARREN DISTRICT PHOTO
 GRAPHE ED.

Humphries, the photo man, has made some very fine views of Bisbee and of the mining plants in the vicinity. but his latest effort in this line far sur passes anything yet attempted. For two days past he has been taking views of all the mines, from the Hig- gins to the Marquette & Arizona, with the intention of producing panorama picture 2G0 inches long and eight inches high. This monster photograph will show the entire range of properties in continuous strip and with some all lowance tor difference of altitude at the various points shown. Mounted on q flexible roll, neatly designed, this pie ture will be a work of art and should serve as a worthy and effective repre- sentative of the greatest mining camp in the country.
 Copies of it will doubtless be sent tc many points, as soon as the work neces- sary to it's completion is finished, whicl will take about two weeks.-Bisbee Re view

SEEKING SOLoMoN's MINES.
Dr. Carl Peters Ready to Start on An
 other African Expedition.

London.-That hardy pioneer, Dr. Carl Peters, who has been called the Cecil Rhodes of Germany, because of the vast slice of African territory which he brought under the German flag, is now in London, preparing to set forth on yet another journey of adventure to East Africa. in the neighborhood of Zambes.
 He tells me that after looking up three or four of his gold mines near Macequece, he intends; to plunge back into Macombe's country, which cCE- tains about the darkest of what re- mains of darkest Africa" and con- tinue the promising explorations begun or previous expeditions, especially with the idea of collecting further informa- tion to prove the theory that King Solomon's mines-not those of Rider Haggard, but the genuine article-were located there.
 The energetic doctor mas already pro duced an interesting book full of testi. mony gathered on the spot at first hand to indicate that the Ophir of the Ol6 Testament, which was the source ol the Queen of Sheba's enormous rev enuea, was none other than this now darkened portion of Africa. He say: furthermore that the Queen of Shebs and Solomon and all the generations O
 miners that went before them and camt after them merely took off the top lay
 CTS of the gold that lies there yet, onl, awaiting up-to-date American mining machinery to bring it forth.
 Dr. Peters thinks it unlikely that h. will get back into civilization with th
 results of his explorations before tn end of next year. And then, of course | there is always the chance of not get | ting back at all. Any one who sees th'

FINDING FRACTIONS.
Picking Up the Fragments in the War
 ren District.

During the recent week there has come to be quite a little talk about fractional claims lying in irregular forms in between the groups of claims held by mining and development com panieS and to which until recently no one had made any claim, personally for the reason that the existence of such fractions was unknown to those who might feel impelled to locate and claim them, says the Bisbee Review. These fractions, too, of which there are said to be several. are i'll some eases right in the midst of groups of claims and not between them. In extent they are said to vary from one acre to as much as five or more acres and while of lit tie service for mining as a. separate property they are usually salable to the group owners at prices proportionatc to the value of the group.
 The possible existence of such frac- tions and the recent talk about them has prompted certain persons to un- dertake q systematic search for them and this searching is not confined to individuals. but one case which oc- cured about two weeks ago was, where a fraction lying between two of the largest properties in the district was snapped up with notable celerity by one of the companies for whose

A DANCE IN BATHING SUITS

It Rained in Atlantic City, but Guests
 Went Anyhow.
 The restless hunt for the novel, not to say the bizarre, in the great pleasure resorts resulted in the evolution of a. party the other night that was both. A number of young people stopping at the Hotel Windsor had invited some friends who were the guests of the Dunlop to a card party and hop. This was on Wednesday night, when the city experienced the most terrific slec- trical and rain storm that has visited the coast in fourteen years. The rain descended in torrents and the lightning flashed necessarily for four hours. so that the tens of thousands of visitors were kept in their hotels. The young people awaited the cessation Of the storm until it became evident that it was probably good for all night. As they were about resigning themselves l to an evening in their own hotel a Phil adelphia girl said:
 | Why not get up a bathing suit party and go to the Windsor?"
 The suggestion was greeted with q shout of approval. The Windsor was called up on the telephone and the idea was repeated to the waiting hosts, who received 1t with enthusiasm. It was 1 agreed that the visitors should come in their bathing suits, and the hosts woult, meet them in the same attire. Fifteen minutes later a dozen girls and mei, ! went dropping down the boardwalk in natty attire for dip in the ocean, but bound for dance and a game of cards They were received with a welcoming shout and were ushered into a suite of | rooms especially reserved for the occa- sion. The programme of cards and dancing was carried out and at mid- night the entire party trooped to the beach and indulged in a dip in the ocean under the watchful eyes of tive life guards, who had been summoned for the purpose.
 The donning of bathing suits at night began before the inspiration of the Quaker City lass however. Night bath ing parties were introduced early in the week through the suggestion of Miss Estella Stewart, of Washington. Moon light bathing is not novelty, but Miss Stewart declared that it was not neces- sary to wait for the moon to enjoy | | dip in the sea- The blaze of the electric lights from the boardwalk and the enormous electrics signs on the beacl front hotels flood the surf with more | brilliant light than that of the moon l Miss Stewards idea was adopted by . bevy of young people stopping at the same hotel and that night they secured the services of life guard an enjoye, a froic in the waves that exceeded they declared, the pleasure of a diI with the crowd in the daylight a thou sandfold. They were watched by hun drads from the boardwalk and the neX night their example was followed by { score of parties from the various hotels These have afforded employment tt practically all of the life guards, who find their incomes increased by 5 { day, which is the fee usually paid them Atlantic City, N.

The districts of Mineral Point and Black Hills are at present being work ed to considerable advantage. G. O.

In the Hid den Treasure, ledge varying from 6 to F feet, he is reaching the water mark and at this depth the ore is richer than ever before. A Sibley burner with six inch pipe has just been placed and furnishes all drafts required. This property gives every indication of not only ere for a large mill but of great richness.
 In the Elizabeth group, overlooking Davis Siding. on Jerome railroad, tun- nels and shafts are driven which de- velop large lodges. showing copper, gold and silver. Many of the stringers lead ing to these lodges show free gold pro- fusely.
 The Catherine group of twelve claims has development work from F to 100 feet in shafts. Ledges are all vertical and strong, filled with hematite and oxide. This group adjoins the old Bus i ter SIOup, ldSSIS puFcnaSeQ by MT. l1Op- kins for Los Angeles company. On i the above property they have built comfortable buildings and will work property with machinery already pur- ! chased.

SOME NEW FACTS ABOUT
 APPENDICITIS.
Why None Need Fear If Careful.

Hospital records indicate that nearly one-third of all surgical operations are for appendicitis, and the unfortunate fea- ture is that eighty per cent. could have been avoided altogether
 The old theory about grapes and other seeds has been discarded, and any good doctor will tell you nowadays that con stipation causes appendicitis almost with out exception.
 The opening into the appendix is no larger than the head of q darninS needle, but if the least foreign substance enters. inflammation ensues, and there is sure to be trouble.
 Constipation and appendicitis will never trouble you if your bowels are reg ulated with Laxakola.

When this tube gets inflamed you have d rumbling sound or imperfect hearing and when it is entirely closed Deafness is the result. and unless the in- flammation can be taken out and this tube restored to it's normal condition. cases out of ten are caused by catarrh. which is nothing but an infiamed condi- tion of the mucous surfaces.

A SERIOUS RAILROAD WRECK.

Quite a serious wreck occurred Mon day morning about 5:30 o'clock just east of town on the upgrade of the hill. A work train composed of six oil cars and flat car Was slowly pulling out for Gila Bend, when switch engine No l07S, running at considerable spped; crashed into the rear end of the train, telescoping the caboose clear to the tender of the engine, also demolishiEg one Hat car and car loaded with oil Epinesis Mendoza, Mexican railroad laborer, jumped from the flat car to- ward the wall of the cut, which is quite close to the track, and was caught and pinned down by the car, when it over turned. His right leg was caught just below the knee and was later amputat- ed by Dr. J. A. Ketcherside, the con- pany's local surgeon. The fireman and engineer jumped to the lower side and were unhurt. The switch engine was badly wrecked and will have to go in to Tucson fer repairs.

lands this narrow strip acted as a

Duf1er.
 Not so many months ago one group of claims not far from Bisbee sold for q nice round sum, and was generally conceded to be worth the price, but shortly after the transfer along comes an individual with an offer to sell a certain small fraction, right in the middle of the recently sold group.
 Events proved that his title was per fectly good and Inc had but to name his price, which proved to be a pretty stiff one. and it was promptly paid.
 This condition in a mining camp like Bisbee is not new, but 1t is to be won dreed at that men shrewd enough to float very highly capitalized corpora tions, should omit or neglect to see to it that their land titles are of such a nature as to preclude the possibility of interlopers within their borders.

Curious Case of Mind Reading.

A very curious case is related in the
Annales %Psychiques. A child Of seven
years, in good health, lively and robust,
belonging to equally healthy parents,
showed a strange facility in learning
all that his mother taught him. He re-
cited the whole multiplication table at
the first trial. solved instantly compli-
Gated problems and made not a single
mistake in his first spelling lesson. 1t
was soon realized that the child did not
calculate by himself and did not spell
of his own accord. He was reading
his mothers mind, and he did this eve
when his eyes were shut and his back
turned, provided only that she were
near him. One day she had the idea
of interposing a screen between her
and the child, and there was no more
calculation, no more spelling. The
screen was sufficient to prevent the
child from reading the mothers
thoughts.
