STILES GONE TO CHINA
United States Marshars Office in-
 formed of Outlaws Departure

A Tucson press dispitch says; The United States marshal's office of Ari' zona is in possess ion of information which beyond doubt is authorative, that locates Billy" Stiles, train rob Der, Wels-Fargo detective, United States marshal aud several other vo' cations, both legal and illegal, in China.
 The marshaps office is satisfied the information ia correct. It Is stated that Stiles made his way to the coast of Mexico and took passage on a for. eign vessel that had just unloaded a shipload of Chinamen.
 The information was given out by a friend of Stiles, who received letter from him written in Mexico before his departure.
 Stiies ln timated that the Mexican authorities were too persistent in their efforts to locate him, and that he would seek little rest and quiet in the Flowery Kingdom.
 He said he was well provided with money, and sent his best regards to & number of friends in Cochise and Pinal.

sectional partisans and an unfriendly press. Let him inform himself thor oughly and act with wisdom, and it is in his power to restore the conditions winch Mckinley brought about. Let him look the south over and see if he cannot revise the opinion he holds of us as set forth in his writings and manifested by his acts. He has the power to correct his own mistakes; 1t is not within southern province oi power. The south will hold to It's self-respect and look to the future for the viniication of it's position and foI the justice and fair dealing which ought never to be withheld from any state nor any section. Ia the mean time, the south is busy"

Amended rlining Locations

If the person locating a mining claim has made mistake in his con ception of the strike of vein, or has taken too little ground, or there is any other discrepancy in his location, he may make an amended location cor recting these defects if he can still do so without conflicting with the rights of others who have located claims ad joining him since the date of his orig inal location. The states of Colorado, Idaho, Arizona, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, North Dakota, South Dakota and Wyoming have passed laws in regard to amended locations.
 The provision of all these state laws, excepting of Arizona, are similar to the Colorado law, which provides '1f at any time the locator of mining claim, believing that his original cer tificate was erroneous, or defective, or that the requirements of the law had not been complied with before filing, or shall be deSirous of changing his surface boundaries or taking in part of an overlapping claim which has been abandoned, or in case the orig inal certificate was made prior to the passage of this law, and he shall be de- Sirous of securing the benefits of the act, such locator may file an addition al certificate subject to the provisions of the act provided, that such relo- cation does not interfere with the rights of others at the time of such relocation, or record thereof, shall preclude the claimant or claimants from proving any such title or titles as he or they may have held under the previous locatiOn.'
 The Arizona statute on this matter provides that location notices may be amended at any time and the monu- ments changed to correspond to the amended location provided, that no change shall be made that will inter tere with the rights of others. An amended location cannot be made to hold claim upon which the assess. ment work required by law has not been done. Mining & Scientific Press.

The SOuth's Attitude

Referring to the prospective visit by MT. Roosevelt to the south, the Hous- ton Post says that 'if it is necessary that any thing be done, rather let the president exhibit spirit of broad na- uonality and repair the mischief he has done so far as he can. Personally, he knows little about the south, it's in- stltutions, its civilization, its prob ems, except what he has gained from

 ment

The new furnace to be installed at the Calumet X Arizona shelter will be of 300 toh capacity and will be deliv- cred at the shelter sumetim early in the year. PresentexpectatiOn is that the furnace will be installed and ready to blow in by the 45h of March.
 The production of copper at the shelter last month was 1900 tons, which it is safe tD say marketed for over S30O,0O0 Ibis production was made with two furnaces in operation the third furnace at the smelter being held in reserve and operating when one of the other two are temporari ' out of commission. Unless the unex- pected happens, and copper falls be- fore the first of the year, which in view of market conditions cannot now be considered as d likely occurrence. the production of two operating fur naces will be worth at least $50, GOO this month. -Bisbee Review.
 Henry Ewing was in the city Wednesday from his mines in the Gold Road country. Within the las. year MT. Ewing has entirely lost his eyesight, yet he lives in his little camp at the mines working in the shaft all alone. He drills and shoots, hOistS the ore cooks pathera hia own fire wood, and all without a glimpse of light. He has stretched wires from his camp to the mine shaft, and to every place where he desires to travel and by this system he goes around camp and attends to his duties. His property is looking fine and he hopes to make sale some of these days.- Needles Eye.

CAR ADDRESSES HIS TROOPS

fdent and Crafty"

ST. Petersburg, Feb. 18.-Viceroy Alex
Jeff has communicated to the car the
report of Captain Reitzensteln IN com
mand of the Russian Division cruiser

the northwestern coast of Japan and the
capture of forty-one of her crew cap
tain Reitzenstein, who is also acting
commodore of the Vladivostock squad
ron. SAYS that a small Japanese coaster
was also approached, but the violent
squau made it impossible to capture the
crew, and that therefore the coaster
was not sunk
Heavy weather he says, prevented
him following the coast and the cruiser
squadron made for Chestakoff, fleeing
before the tempest to gain the Korean
coast Owing to the storm, the squad
ron was only able to accomplish five
ped, and the cruisers and guns were
coated with ice. there being nine de-
grees of frost. Two violent gales were
encountered within three days.
In the courtyard of the winter palace
the czar today reviewed the third bat
talon of the First Siberian rifles, which
is proceeding to the far east. The re-
view took place in the presence of the
czarina, the dowager empress, Grand
Duke Michael, War Minister Kuropat-
kin, General Sakharoff, chief of staff,
and number of court officials. After
the inspection, the rendering of the ma
tional anthem by the band and cheers
from the spectators, his majesty made
speech to the departing soldiers, in
which he said:
My brothers, I am happy to be able
to see you all before you leave, and I
wish you a good journey. 1 am firmly
convinced that you will all uphold the
honor of your ancient regiment, and
readily risk your lives for your dear
fatherland.
Remember your foe is brave. confident
and crafty. From my heart I wish you
success over your opponents I bless
you, my brothers, and with you the
famous First Siberian regiment; may
Seraphim pray for you and accompany
you in all your ways.
Il thank the officers for volunteering
their services, and once more I thank
you, all my brothers, with all my heart.
God bless you"
The battalion, accompanied by it's
baggage wagons, then marched past, the
car calling out to the men as they
went by:
Good by, my brothers.

NEGRO CONFERENCE.
18th Annual Meeting Called to
Order by Booker Washington.

Tuskegee. Ala, Feb. 1s.-Booker T.
washington called to order the thir-
teenth annual Tuskegee negro confer
enee in the chapel of the institute in
the presence of more than two thou
sand negroes from the Carolinas,
Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, and
Alabama. There were also many men
prominent in philanthropic work, in
Guiding Hammond Lamont, of the New
York Evening Post. Resolutions were
adopted embodying the sentiment of
the conference. These resolutions de-
clare the faith of the conference in
efforts to secure homes and land for
the negro, the exercise of thrift keep
ing out of debt, getting rid of the log
cabin idea, building of churches,
schools and public roads, the regular
and prompt payment of all taxes, and
making agricultural life more attrac-
tive.
In connection with the educational
interests higher standard of morality
was urged. The resolutions declare
that the moral condition of the negro
race in the south is improving. and
that there is no evidence that educa-
ton increases crime among the ne
groes. They urge harmony and mu-
tual confidence between the races, and
that the whites put a premium upon
right conduct and high living among
the blacks. The negro is urged to
refrain from crime and to join with
the whites in the maintenance of law
and order.

being carried on compel US to wait
with patience news of the success of
our troops, which can not occur before
decisive actions are fought by the Rus
sian army. The distance of the terri
tory and the desire of the emperor to
maintain peace were the causes of the
impossibility of more complete and.
earlier preparations for war. Much
time is now necessary in order to strike
at Japan, but it was worthy of the
dignity and might of Russia and,
while sparing as much as possible the
shedding of blood of her children to

Russia must await the event in pa

avenge an hundredfold that prOvoca-

Operations on land must not be ex-

not obtain early news from the thea

blood is unworthy the greatness and
