The Jerome Reporter Is somewhat
off In its diagnosis Of the character of
the rock in the King,nan gold fields.
1t states tat the rock Is pegmatite,
the constituents of wbi:h Is "ortho-
clase," quartz and little mica. Now
the fact Is that pegmatits Is what is
kaown as graphic granite" and con-
taining fels pal, quartz and little mica.
The felspar Is Ia large cutical granule-,
lying in hit or miss sort of way, look
ing like Hebrew characters. In this
rock occurs the tourmalines, topaz,
beryl, ETC., which Is not the case with
the rock under discus ssion. The rock
in which the gold occurs Is what may
be termed syeLite, containing as 1t
does quartz, felspar and horDblende.
People have located much of the gran
ite under the belief that II Is 10 that
class of rock that the gold occurs, but
ia this they have been mistaken and a
wrong impression has gone out. How
the impression got out that the rock
was of the order termed pegmatite is
another of the mysteries. 1t in fact
has not the least resemblance to the
pegmatites OF the north, ia which some
gold was found few years ago.

The Cedar Forest Gold and Copper
company has been organized under the
laws of the territory % Arizona by
James Rice and Frank n. Rust, of Los
Angeles, aud G.. Charles and A. T..
DAVIS and Fred w. Morrison, of King
man, with a capitalization of 100000
one dollar shares. The company has
been organized to take over the gold
and copper mines owned by G. G. and
A. T. Davis and located near the Wind
mill, at The head OF the Big Sandy.
From reports made on the property it
Is a wonderful body of ore bearing gold
and copper in pay values. Mr. Davis
sometime ago took from the vein ore
that netted him considerable money,
but concluded that the better way to
work the mines would tie to interest
capital with him and open them up in
systematic manner. This will now
be done, as the com pany intends TO put
q force of men to work at once. The
mines are ia an accessible part of the
county aud operations can be carried
on all the year around.

Plenty of Recruits for Army.

Recruits for the army were never so
plentiful as they are now, since the early
excitement of the Spanish War" re-
marked an old army officer today. In
fact in many instances We find that regi-
ments have more than the required num-
Der of men. An instance of this sort oc-
Cured last week, when we received a re-
port that the Fourteenth Infantry,
which is under orders to sail for Manila
on August l, had about fifty men more
than the proper number. The surplus
enlisting at once after their periods of
service had expired. The department had
not counted on so many of them re-en-
listing and had forwarded a lot of re-
cruits to fill their places.
Conditions in the army are now very
attra ctive to young men who desire to
see something of the world. The rule
that a regiment shall serve only two
years in the Philippines has made re-
cruiting easy. Young men are not afraid
of staying in the East that long. Then
again. army life in the Philippines pos
sesses few of the hardships of five years
ago. Good, comfortable barracks nave
been erected all over the archipelago, the
men know how TO live to protect their
health and there is just enough trouble
to make things interesting. Many men
enlist in the hope of finding some bust
ness opening in the Philippines. So plen-
tiful are candidates that the standard OF
fitness has been materially raised. Only
the finest specimens are now accepted
and the reflections are higher than they
have been for years. The army is dowr
to the very lowest limit there being not
more than 5000 men in the service a.

What a True Scholar Is.

The scholar in the true sense is the
man or woman for whom the schools
have done their best. The scholar knows
some one thing thoroughly, and can carry
his knowledge into action. With this, he
must have such knowledge of related
subjects and of human life as will throw
this special knowledge into proper per-
spective. Anything less than this is not
scholarship. The man with knowledge
and no perspective is a crank, disturber
of the peace, who needs a guardian to
make his knowledge useful. The man
who has common sense, but no special
training, may be a fair citizen, but he
can exert little influence that makes for
progress. There may be wisdom not of
books, but it can be won by no easy pro-
cess. To gain wisdom or skill, in school
or out, is education. To do anything
we'll requires special knowledge. and this
is scholarship whether attained in the
university or in the school life. 1t is the
man who knows that has the right to
speak-[David Starr Jordan, in the At
lautic.

the name Of his breeder. who at that time
kept a hotel in West Springfield. Mass
lie moved from there to Randolph. VT

horse WAS always advertised by his
breeder as Figure, subsequent owners
changing the name. Justin Morgan was
sired by True Briton, also called Beauti-
full Bay and Traveller. His dam was
daughter of Diamond, by Church's Will
