THE BIsBEE CONSOLIDATED.

A very fiattering fact exists in re- gard to the Bisbee Consolidated, and that is, while other properties in the Solomon Springs district have been compelled to sink 300 feet to get through the conglomerate. the Bisbee Consoli- dated at depth of about 16O feet is through that formation and in soft lime. This circumstance has encour- aged the management to commence preparations for vigorous work. and leads them to believe that they will be the first people in the district to strike ore in bodies of standard magnitude Bisbee Review.

had labored for the great state of Cali fornia; how he hd seen infants come into the world praising the name Of Beamer; how he had watched them grow and, falling into the torchlighr procession, shout the name of Beamer. and how later on they had gone to the polls and voted for Beamer year in and year out since the time when the memory of man runneth not back to the contrary. Then he grew caustic, and told of MT. Beamer's faculty for getting votes regardless of political affilia tionS. Democrats and republi- cans alike stealthily crept up to the ballot box and honored the man who had honored them. Whoever got up in front of him got knocked down.

Afford, "I desire to present to you as president of the California and Ari- zona Interstate Knockers Association, this little token of our affection and es- teem. May the rawhide thongs that bind the handle to the head be emble- nautical of the ties of friendship that link us together in mutual associa ton. D
 While speaking these words, MT. Al ford unbuttoned his coat and drew from an inner pocket a fierce looking stone ax. with ragged edge, securely attached to formidable handle by thongs of the rawhide of some pre- historic beast. It was the same ax that Montezuma carried when he frs, passed through the Salt river valley on his route north to run the prelimin- ary survey for the Grand Canyon
 While the rest of the gentlemen be- gan to chuckle at their narrow but safe escape, MT. Beamer was evidently somewhat embarrassed, but he made good. He brought himself to imagine that he was in a political campaign and waded in. He said the blow al most killed father, and was so sudden that he would have to be deliberate in forming plan for retaliation. He did not know whether he should decide 10 use the stone ak on the Ciceronian brow of MT. Afford or whether he would employ a band of highbinders to create a vacancy in the California state board of equalization, but when- ever the opportunity should come the skinning would be complete.
 Dropping then into a more serious vein, he made a very impressive, little speech in which he indicated the pleas ure he experienced in receiving the gift, which really is a nice souvenir of his visit, but the intrinsic value of which is nothing as compared with the motives of the donor and the kindly feelings of all who participated in pro- noting the joke.

for the murder of the Berry family III

The argument upon which the men
bnse their contention for bail was that
the killing Of the Berrys was done in
self defense. They allege they rode to
the Berry ranch on the day of the kill
ing and that they were In danger Of
losing their lives unless they acted
quickly. They told of the previous
trouble they had had with the Berrys.
and said that they We're goaded to the
point of desperation.
Attorney General Coleman and his
associates made the contention on be-
half of the state that there was no
provocation for the murder Of the Ber-
rvs and that the crime was committed
In cold blood.
In contradiction Of the assertion of
the DeWeys that they We're in danger
Of mob violence the state introduced a
statement signed by most OF the prorl-

Zebra Mules for Army Use.

According to the Calcutta English
man. the Indian army remount depart.
ment has recently imported two zebra
mules through a Hamburg agent. We
have been unable. says our contempor-
airy. to find out the price paid for the
animals. but the innovation has, with.
out doubt, cost the remount department
dear. AS an experimental measure OF
the right kind even this outlay Is not to
be grudged. The unfortunate losses wt
have suffered through the horse sick
ness among transport animals call foa
some immediate remedy and we see the
remedy in the employment Of zebra
mules. The donkey Is perfectly I'm.
mune from horse sickness and so Is the
zebra. The latter animal in particular
is extremely hardy, as appears from
the fact that when the rinderpest swept
the eastern and central portions Of
Africa in the early nineties the per.
centage OF deaths among zebras is said
to have been very small indeed. A
mule. therefore, out of two such hardy
parents as the donkey and the zebra

quired for the army. The German,
have already discovered the value Of
the zebra, as their extensive zebrs
farms at the foot of Mount Killiman.
