SONORA SETTINGS.

Mr. < Ben Smith, superinten- dent of the Nina Grande. rear San Antonio de Ia IIuerta, is now vis- iting in Hermosillo.
 The old dredge of the Chicago & Sonora Gold Placer Mining Com- pany upon the Tecoripa river near Suaqui Grande, is reported in con- stant and profitable operation.
 Mir. F. Hartman of Los Angeles. California, president of La Dura Mining x Milling Company. which has been many years operating valuable mining properties on the east side of the Yaqui river, in the extreme northwest corner of the Alamos district is expected to visit the camp in the early part of January.
 About fifteen miles west of La Barranca, between that place and Suaqui Grande, Mir. George NJ. Corcoran is developing a great cop per property which is pronounced by experts to be one of the coming great copper properties of Mexico. A great ledge, 50 to 400 feet in width, is traced through the region a distance of a couple of miles or more. At intervals there are immense blowouts of ore, with the ledge connection traced between, It is upon these blowouts that development is progressing. Assays made by MT. B. A. Ogden, at Las Goteras have run from 80 per cent copper and 50 ounces per ton in silver, with some gold, to 22 per cent copper, 12 ounces sil- yer and $6 per ton in gold. Every one knowing anything about it de- clares that Mr. Corcoran has bonanza.

A Splendid Mo ney Chest.

There has this week been install led at the First National Bank a very large Mosler patent special fire-proof bank safe weighing 5000 pounds, which was purchased for that institution by Cashier Bracey Curtis when he was in New York City some weeks ago. Owing to the greatly increased volume of business being transacted by the First National Bank Mr. Curtis felt the need of a more modern safe and the one purchased is of the very last pattern throughout with all the new improvements and is the best ever brought to this sec- tion. It contains a very large re- serve chest the door to which is made of the finest drill-proof steel and fitted with an absolutely bur- glar proofcombination lock. Besides the door to the reserve chest there are also two other sets of fireproof doors, the inner ones being fully three and a half inches in thick ness and made of drill proof steel. These last are fitted with three time locks and there is no way in which they can be opened from the outside, entrance being effected only through the operation of the time-locks which can be set to open automatically at any desired time, three clocks being used so as to minimize the possibility of the mechanism getting out of order. The outer doors, as also the inner ones, are made air-tight and this precaution precludes the possibil- ity of injecting any explosive sub- stance into the crevices and wreck ing the safe.
 It is a very substantial fixture and the depositors of the institu- tion will greatly appreciate this action on the part of the officers of the bank in taking the precaution of guarding it's funds in this man. ner.

Right of Way.

For the benefit of those teamsters
who make two-forty squirt over
crossings, splashing mud on the pc
dcstrian, and just missing the taking
of.human life by hair with not a
slow-up, we give the following, being
the laws in the matter, and drivers
should note carefully the rules as APP
piled:
If one temporarily leaves a sidewalk
in front of coming team, that team
has to hold up, as the pedestrian has
the right of way over the vehicle, no
matter whether he is dog in claim
| ing it or not. In short, the right-of-
way goes on the highway with the
slower person or vehicle. Thus the
carriage has the right of way as
against the auto. This is following
| the rules of the road at sea, where a
rowboat has the right of way as
against the largest steamer afioat.
The only trouble is to enforce your
right. After the man on the right
of way has been run down by an auto
or the row boat NTH the right of way
has been sunk by the steamboat
there isn't much consolation in ap
pealing to the right of vindication
However, all meeting with an acct
dent on the highway due to negligence
have the law on their side providing
they were the slower.

Last Chance, Girls.

Only little while remains in which
the fair sex will have authority of
custom to assert their rights on social
ethics and dictate terms of social am
nesty with the lords of creation. This
leap year is rapidly nearing its death
day, and four years is long time to
wait until the fair maidens will again
assume the reins CT social govern
ment.
Before the advent Of 1905 they
should bestir themselves to take adj
vantage of this grand opportunity to
do the gallant by providing their es-
corts and friends with an entertain
ment in the shape of ball. In the
early part of the year several dances
were given and they proved very en-
joyable. A repetition of their efforts
as entertainers would doubtless be the
means Of establishing reciprocal rela
tions between the young ladies and
gentlemen Of Ely that would last al
through the coming four years Of
masculine domination.
P. S.-7[This suggestion is made by
request Of several young gentlemen
who expect to be remembered with
Invitations when the grand event il
ready TO be sprung on the unsuspect
ling eXpectants.

Predicts Heavy Shipments.

James Gayley, vice president of the
United States Steel company, and in
charge of the mining and transporta-
tion divisions of the corporation, said
in speech recently in Pittsburg that
it is within bounds to look for the
shipping of 45,00O,OOO gross tons OF
iron ore from the Lake Superior re-
gion in single season, within the
next ten years. The record for one
season thus far was about $1,000, 900
tons, made in 1908, and there are some
we'll informed people who look for {
record of 100000 tons in 1901. 1t
will doubtless be agreed that Mr.
Gayley's estimate of 100000 tom
for a season within ten years is con

SEASON ALMOST ENDED.
Shipping Season Drawing to q
Close Quite Rapidly.

The Chandler mine closed it's sea-
sons shipments Monday having sent
forward about $4,000 tons, practic-
ally cleaning up its stockpiles, only a
few tons remaining. The last cars
were loaded Saturday evening.
The Pioneer, Zenith and Savoy dis
continued shipments sometime last
week and the only mine now shipping
from the Vermilion range is the Min
nesota at Soudan which is sending
forward the balance of 10000 tons
called for from this mine. 1t is sup
posed the Minnesota will finish by
tomorrow night.
The Pioneer has sent out this sea-
son, 505,432 tons. The Zenith has
shipped 86,OO5 tons and the Sibley and
Savoy, 122,7S tons and 1902 tons
respectively. All the mines here
have begun stockpiling for the winter.
"Just as long as the weather con-
tinues favorable, ore shipments will
continue from the Two HarbOrs
docks" says the News of that city
There is large fleet now here and
number of vessels are yet due
Traffic on the road is falling off be-
cause of.the cessation of shipments al
the mines which have sent forward
their quota. Several of the Mesabs
range mines have some to ship tt
make out their allotments, notably
among which is tile Adams with 81, 00(
tons. In the allotment of ore carry
ing for the two corporation roads dur
ing the season, the amount was fxet
exactly the same, 4,556,00 gross tons

they will come to the schedule"

ORE ON SECTION THIRTY.
Drills Have Encountered Large
Body of High Grade Ore.

That the work of exploration on
Section 30 has been highly satisfact-
DRY to those conducting the same and
the fee owners, is a foregone conclus-
ion and has been commented on by
men well versed in exploration and
mining in this section.
Although rather retricient regard
ing actual finds, those interested have
always maintained that the showing
warranted the belief that Section 30
was we'll worth the time and money
required during the litigation to Sc
cure title to this valuable piece of
property. The MINER has frequently
asked for definite information regard
ing the explorations but has hereto
fore encountered requests to ''say
little until we have something to talk
about"
However, we have it from no less
an authority than one of the fee own
ers, that large body of high grade
ore has been encountered on one of
the west forties and that much eX-
ploratory work would yet be done and
the property Systematically tested.
This is certainly news that appeals to
our readers and especially to the
people of this city who have taken a
considerable interest in Section &c
affairs ever since it has been known
as possibly rich property.
Its location near this city means
much in a business way and the dis
covery of paying ore also means much
in prospective way for the lands
lying between the mines now devel
oped here and the Section 80 property
covering distance of about -four
miles. Many promising outlooks are
also found the other side of 80.

BOX CAR PEDDLERS.
A Law Needed to Cope With This
Class of Merchants.


The state dairy and food commits
sion has recommended the enactment
of license fee to be charged box car
peddlers. 1t seems that in Iowa such
a law exists, and that as result
these fakirs are being driven over in
to Minnesota. They carry very in
ferior class of goods, much of it i'm
pure and not up to the standard
exacted by the dairy and food COM
mission. AS result, they make a
great deal of trouble which might be
obviated by the charging of license
fee so high as to be prohibitive.
During the past month there has
been several of this class of merchants
struck town and have unloaded
fair-sized lot of goods on the public
at what they claimed was low prices
but careful figuring proved them
higher than local merchants were
charging. These fellows get cash for
their stuff and take their money and
depart, Not acenttis ever seen here
after they are gone. AS an instance
we will cite the case of man who
few days ago purchased live turkey,
weighing, on the peddlsr's scales, 20
pounds, paying him at the rate of Is
cents per pound or $500. He took
the bird to local market to have it
killed aud dressed and paid the
butcher SOC for dressing it. After
the feathers had been picked from
the bird it weighed on the market
scales, Is pounds. The same market
was selling turkeys at % cents and
the Is pound bird would have cost
s3.45. AS it was the man paid $4.10
for his turkey. This is only one Of a
few instances we could cite.
These merchants should be stopped.
They interfere with the men that
build towns, pay taxes, keep up
schools and make their homes here.
AS it was with the turkey peddler, so
it is with other business.

Many Wolf Bounties.

County Auditor Halden says that
from three to four wolf pelts are
brought in weekly and the bounty Of
500 collected for them from the
county. The larger part of the pelts
come from the range end.
In order to receive the bounty, the
person having killed the wolf must
take the carcas to tile clerk Of the
township in which the wolf was kill
ed and get from him certificate,
which, with the skin of the animal
must be shown to the county auditor.
Those who spend much time in the
woods claim that wolves are very
numerous this year and say that not
many young deer were seen this sea-
son owing to the fawns having fallen
J prey to the wolves.
