The last number of the Miner says: Several handsome speci- mems of ore have been received this week by the Progressive association for the cairns. Two are from the Samoan mines, situated on Sherum's peak, two from the Gold Road mines and two from the Burro group. It is expected to soon have enough to com plete one of the cairns near the depot. The ores will be laid up in cement and will be properly labeled The build ing of these cairns will be one of the best advertising schemes the people Of this county ever took stock in.

 The output of the Arizona Copper company for the month of July was 1891 short tons, as against HAS tons for the previous month, an increase in production of 243 tons. The old Arizona Copper is one of the most steady producers in the territory, and while its ore is of low grade, it is nevertheless one of the best dividend payers in the country. The results for the half year to March 3l, show profits, including Gl4 S63 brought for ward from September, 30, 1903, of Gl63,5S0. The dividends for the half year on the A preference shares and per cent preference stock amount to SIP, ,226, leaving the sum of fl5l, ,3l4. On July 2 interim dividend on the preferred ordinary shares, amounting to sl07 ,659 was paid, besides carrying over large reserve fund. In addi. tion to these dividends, and the re- demption of outstanding indebted ness, which is now about wiped out, the company is continually making many Improvements to its plants and mines. The record of the Arizona Copper company is just about as sat isfactory as that of any other com pany, and it's future is certainly as bright. Era.

Artesian Water Near Douglas

Report comes in of the getting of a strong low of artesian water twenty miles up the valley, says the Interna. tional- American. The strike is the most important ever made in this sec tion, aud if the stream holds up 1t will demonstrate body of splendid water available to the valley aud the city sufficient for every need.
 The flowing water was got at depth of 1000 feet. The stream rises six inches over the top of the casing put down In the well. The latter was sunk to get water for 1900 acre ranch, which is to be put to alfalfa. With the supply of water secured the entire acreage can be irrigated. Several wa. ter strata were cut in the sinking of the well and cutting of the casing at these strata will greatly increase the amount Of water available.
 The strike demonstrates the pres 9nce of great under ground rivers ir this section and means d world of wa ter for those with the need and will to go after it.

From Iowa comes the report that the telephone is making it almost i'm. possible for tramps to get their living in their own chosen way. h many sections of the west nearly every farm house is supplied with a telephone, and the whole community becomes a veritable whispering gallery. As soon as tramp starts down the highway the neighbors in the direction he is going are informed of his approach, and in due season doors are locked or the dog is let loose o- the shotgun is placed where 1t can be procured han dily. Or in lieu of these precautions some piece of work is planned and is all ready for the tramp to go at when he shows up. This condition of af- fairs has set the tramps to cutting the telephone wires, their excuse being that they can get nothing to eat since their movements are telephoned from house to house.

 But the classical case of this kind was that investigated by committee of such scientists as M. Arago M Li- bri and M. Lacroix. at Paris. They examined Vito ,Mangiamele, the son of a Sicilian peasant, Il years of age. putting him such questions as: Find the cube root of 3,796,416"-which the boy did within three minutes. Then came this poser: What number has the following proportions-that, if its cube is added to five times its square. and then AZ times the number and the number 40 be subtracted from the re- suit, the remainder is zero" M.

 Two things strike you about this extraordinary congenital faculty-its mysteriousness and it's uselessness. In exemplification of the two take the case of Jedediah Buxton. He also worked out almost instantaneously the most complex problems; but he could give no account of the mental pro- cess by which he solved them. This process was so far from being core lated with intellect or even intelli- gence, that when Jedediah went to hear a great preacher or went to see Gar rick in Richard H." his sole intedast in the sermon cr the play was the counting up of the number of words uttered by the preacher or by the ac- tors.

A TeleDathic Clock.

Here is strange yet absolutely true
story, in which Il clock plays a mystic
rioUs part: 1t was a small American
timepiece which stood on a mantel-
piece in a sitting room in Liverpool
builders house. At 11:3O one morning
the timepiece fell from the mantelpiece
to the floor. When picked up it was
found to be quite uninjured and still
going, as if nothing unusual had hap
pened. There seemed to be absolutely
no reason why it should have fallen,
but an hour later when the builder
came home to his midday meal he re-
marked that at 1870 he fell from the
top of building, but happily without
sustaining any injury. His wife then
described how the clock had fallen at
the same time, and the couple ponder
in vain over the curious and utterly
inexplicable coincidence. - Liverpool

Old Time Extrayagances.

We hear great deal about the lux
ury and extravaganza of the age; but,
when you think of it, a great many of
our most reckless fashions date from
past centuries. In the fifteenth eentu-
ry, for instance, the feminine ward
robe was magnificent, with its gar
ments weighed down with laces and
embroideries in guipure, points coupes.
Milanese and Venetian. not forgetting
the gold embroideries worked with pre-
ciouS stones, etc.
For several centuries women wore
white shoes in kid and ordinary leather
as we'll as dainty chaussure in EN-
broidered satin for dancing the pavanc
and Elinuet in.
In the time of Louis XIV. the wo-
men wore most Sumptuous lingerie
and dessous made chiefly Of what used
to be called les dentelles dete, kind
Of silk blond lace with a cord in it,
which used to be mounted over colors
for the petticoats and was also worn
for the hanging sleeves which used to
show the arms so prettily.-Paris Fash

Fendsen, bartender, was killed; Ser
geant Harry Curren, of the Thirteenth
United States infantry, fatally injured,
and thirteen other persons severely in
jured in a street car accident in the
Richmond district last night. A big
electric car Of the Eddy street line was
coming in from the park and chutes
crowded to it's utmost capacity, many
standing on the platforms. In coming
down grade the brakes of the car
refused to work and the car acquired
fearful momentum. Just as curve
was reached the motorman succeeded
in throwing on all the brakes and the
car came to stop with such sudden
ness that large number of persons
were thrown off.
