GOLD PROPERTIES
 IN THE DRAGONS.

Tom Cannon is in Tombstone from the Dragons. He brings some in.er- estiDg specimens and much encourag- ing news from the district. He. along with Messrs. Godfrey Dan Lewis, Frank Reynolds and George Keller, have six gold claims not more than e.ght miles in g bee line north of Tombstone, and four miles west of Gleason. They form a good gold prop osition in an abundance of iron. Bauer and Wells also have five claims ad- and claim four feet of thirty dollar ore. From all reports they will undoubtedly have a camp of re- spectable proportions cut there in the course of a year.

Current Rumors concernin3 Absorp- ton of Latter and N. E. & C. C.

The Clifton Copper Era prints the following interesting article:
 The report ID the New York papers that the PheIps4Dodge people have secured a control of the Shannon company has been the all-absorbing topic of conversation Ill this section since last week. The Era publishes an interview in another column iron. one of the officers of the Phelps Dodge company, copied from the New York Commercial, in winch the gen tieTan neither confirms nor denies the rumor The rumor, coupled with the heavy buying of Shannon for some time past, and the resignation of MT. Gill as president. clearly indicates that there Nill be q change in the man. asement of the company. The Era is rot prepared to say what crowd mas control Of the shannon, but is inclln ed to the opinion that the honors are somewhat civided with the New Eng land and Clifton people, as many Of them are known to have been heavy purchasers for some months past. l. is generally understood that what Is known as the Shannon crowd" have practically lost control, but no doubt their interest will be represented og the new beard to be selected on the ZSth of the present month The fact that MT. Austin. one of the most not cd mining engineers in Amerca, IS nere at the present time with an able corps of assistants. exam -a.ng the properties O. the New England and Clifton company. and with instruc- tions tc examine the Shannon hold
 ings as well, lends color to the suppc. siiion that the Phelps-Dodge and New England people are now Ill harmony. and further that merger of the two properties nay De attempted later on The Era has no authority from anyone to make this statement, neither has t had inforInat.on of any kind from the local managers of either company, but inasmuch as many newspapers are specrlating on the future of the Snan- non, it has as good right to its cpIn- ,on as any of them. Such a combi. nation would be most advantageous b both companies. It would relieve the New England company Of the ne- cessiiy of building a smelter and con i centratIEg plant. and at the same tIrae would give the shannon company tGe advantage of a greater variety of ores land a more extended field to draw from The Shannon plant, with the addition of converters, would be am- pie to not only handle the ores of the 1.-two companies, but also to snelt and
 refine the ores of the D. c. company as well. Looking at it from this view point. it might be among the
 probabilities, should the merger be effected, that the smelter a. Morehci
 would close down, and the ores of that camp handled through the Shannon smelier This would save the trans ! ferring of coke and coal at Guthris
 for the D. C. smeIter. The road from
 Morenci to Guthrie could be brought
 to the Shannon plant by spur a hall

The grandmother lived to reach the age of 72. Jeremiah Kilborn, MT Kill born's father, was born in Litchfield.
 He learned the trade of blacksmith,
 an occupation which he followed in- dustriously until he lost his sight. This, together with other physical disabilities, caused his retirement from active labor. He died at the age of 32 years. His wife, Rachel (Westover) Kilborn, was daughter of John Vest over of Litchtield; she became the mother of two children, namely: Da- vid F., who married Lucy J. Hatch of New Milford, and Frank J., the sub ject of this sketch. The mother still survives at the age of Il years. Frank J. Kilborn received his education in the schools of his native town. At the
 age of IT he commenced to learn the
 trade of stone cutter. He also ac- quired the mason's trade, and after ward followed these occupations for 20 years. In 1889 he moved to Washing ton, and, purchasing his present prop erty, engaged in the milling business, which he has since prosperously fol- lowed. His mill is run by three wheels combined, giving 90 horse power, which is ample for his present needs. Be- sides milling large amount of flour and grain, in which he has built up a
 thriving trade, he grinds about SOC bushels of rye annually. He also

A BAD SPILL.

A teamster from Morris "slewed" around the corner by H. T. Dayton's, Friday afternoon, at a furious gait. Unfortunately he made so short a turn that the near side runners of both sset of bobs dropped into a subterranean cavern which little Till, that usually is in evidence at this point, had been quietly preparing this cold weather and as a consequence there was very sudden halt and a broken sleigh. The goods did not go out but stood on an incline of about 45 degrees. It was raining gently but the man from Morris did not feel very gentle, if you might judge by the way he talked and acted toward the poor horses especially. A cloud of steam arose from the over driven creatures at first, but they stood long in the rain without blankets while the man jerk ed them this way and that and scolded about his predicament and the probable loss on and expense of the upset. He was directed to M. Braken's where he obtained suitable sleigh and later MT Bean of the Hitch cock Hardware Co.'s helpers and Mir Peck's milkman kindly assisted in transferring the load to the other vehicle, while the patient horses still stood in the cold without any covering

SOMETHING DOING IN EAST VILLAGE.
 The pancake social given at>the parsonage, last Wednesday evening, was very successful in that nearly the whole earth was there; that is three corners of it were present, viz.: Shel- ton, Stevenson and Newtown. A very lively time was enjoyed by all. Every thing was in the best condition for pleasant evening, the sleighing was first class, the weather was warm, and everybody anxious for ride. A beau tiful ode on "pancakes" was composed for the occasion, which was rendered with zest and spirit to the tune Rambling" The merry crowd ar irving atthe parsonage found an abund- ance of real buckwheat cakes freshly cooked and deIiciously served with but ter or syrup, and hash and coffee. Hav ing heartily engaged in number of games and partaken of refreshments to their satisfaction, all grabbed what wraps they could find and wended their way homeward, one party getting home just in time toJprevent accident from sleigh which was quietly pull ing itself to pieces. Because there was such good time and because peo- pie want to come again, be ready if we have another spell of sleighing, for there will be something doing.
