A ntulA DouuOCTdb EepOTbeT WHO IS evidently new conner and has not gotten his bearings properly yet writes as follows of Joseph l.. Giroux, superintendent of the United Verde mine: Joseph l.. Giroux and family of Jerome are guests at the Commer- cial. Mir. GirouX left last evening for the south and will visit at the big cop per camps of the territory and Sonora before returning. During his absence his family will remain here. MT. GirouX, it will be remembered, was the chemist who was mainly instru- mental in extinguishing the fires in the United Verde mines at Jerome recently, and by so doing reopened one of the largest and busiest mining camps in the territory. According to reports he was offered a permanent position with the United Verde people at Jerome with very good salary but he thought he could do better by opening an office for himself at some of the big camps in the southern part of the territory. It is very probable that he will locate at Cananea. From nonday's Daily.
