bullion has yet been made, but J. D.
 Marlar the superintendent, states that
 1t is about so per cent copper and con
 tains a considerable quantity of gold
 and silver. This is the first bullion
 ever smelted in Maricopa county, but
 the success of the experiment is prac.
 tically an assurance that larger and
 more complete plant will be erected at
 the mines, as it was with this end in
 view that the experiment wat made.
 The ore comes from the Hattie and
 Copper Top group of claims, which is
 located thirty miles north of Phoenix
 and are owned by the Lime Creek Cop.
 per company, to whom the smelter
 also belongs. The company and Mir
 Marian, the uperintendent, are to be
 congratulated on the success of the
 undertaking Phoenix Enterprise.
 Not to be behind in the matter of
 rich ore, the Leland mine last week
 opened up splendid body of ore in
 the winze below the lower tunnel on
 that property. This ore is said to have
 a width of 3 feet and the values are
 somewhere around 5000 per ton.
 While possibly the entire feet will
 not give this large value, it is pre- sumed that the average of the ore will
 be very high. The ore is free milling,
 the gold being in condition that can be readily saved on plates. The tun- nels on the property reach depth of 500 feet under che apex of the vein and this with the winze opens the mine to a depth of about 900 feet, showing continuous body of ore to tbat depth and of great length. From the portal of the drift to the breast there is scarcely break in the vein, although in some places the values may become lower. In the main the values remain high enough to m ike practically every pound of ore taken out in the work of development to run through the mill at d profit Mohaye County Miner.
 Last Friday night the crosscut from the bottom of the 100 foot shaft on the Gold Road mine cut the ore body and since that time l7 feet of the richest ore ever found in the property has been cut through. The ore is now be- ing drifted on and it is expected that the ore body will be found just IS long as that ia the upper levels. Since the of J. D. Spargo as super intendent work has been pressed on the shaft below the 300 level and last week it reached a depth of 400 feet where the crosscut to the ledge was made. In the upper workings and on the surface the ore chute shows up hundreds of feet in length without break and if it opens up in correSpon- dlng manner on the 100 the Gold Road have one of tue greatest gold mines ever opened up on the Pacific coast. The ore averages as high as that taken from the Independence mine, at Crip- pie Creek, while the body is greater, giving to this mine greater conner cial value than the great mine that gave Cripple Creek it's boom. It Is thought that when the ore body on tue 400 level of the Gold Road has been fully exploited new machinery will be installed at the mine and the mill replaced by modern plant of greater capacity. - MDhave County Miner.

Colum bus wants the State en-
campment of the National Guard
and Major John 2. Mayo, Mai.
B. A. Lincoln. the Progressive
Union and others are leaving
nothing undone to bring it here.
The encampment this year
will be under the authority of the
Federal government and all ex-
penses will be paid, even the
men in ranks drawing per diem
as paid the regulars IN the army.
With this financial aid the sue
cess fthe meeting of the soldiers
is guaranteed.
The encampment here would
bring thousand members of the
State organization to Columbus.
1t would come at time when
business IS The dullest and when
the volume Of money which their
presence here would bring would
help the summer dullness to an
appreciable extent. Columbus
IS regarded asoneof the desirab bic
places for the meeting and Gov.
Vardaman, Adj. Gen. Fridge and
Maj. Kessler will probably visit
this city this week TO overlook
the prospect.

Lodge Lore.

Grand Master w. o. Menger,
of Vicksburg, has issued his
proclamation setting apart Tues
day, June End, as Memorial Day
for all Odd Fellows who have died
in the State the past year. The
local lodges have been extremely
fortunate in this respect during
the past twelve months and only
one lodge in this county will be
called upon to observe this Occa-
sion and that is New Hope Lodge
No. 1876. It has lost one mem
Der, Mr.. B. F. BrownIee.
DR.. H. NJ. Lanier returned
Thur sday from Gulfport where
he has been for the past week in
attendance on the meeting of the
Grand Lodge of Knights ofPyth-
las as a delegate from the C0lum-
bus Chapter. The meeting is
reported as having been highly
satisfactory in every detail, about
six hundred delegates from oyer
the State being in attendance,
who were royalty welcomed by
the hospitable citizens of Gulf
port. In elect ng the officers for
the ensuing year we take pleas
ure in noting the honors con-
ferred on Mr.. J. 7. Senter of
this city, who was elected to the
position of Grand Vice Chancel
Tor. Hon. E. S. Gambler, was
elected Grand Chancellor for the
State.

Change of Schedule Postponed.

On account of the delay in get
ting the World s Fair under way
and the consequent lack of patron
age the NJ. & 0. Railroad will not
lnaugurate its night schedule on
the Montgomery division of the
road until June 5th. This makes
the third delay which the road
has encountered in beginning
this service. 1t seems to be the
general opinion throughout the
South that the fair will not be
completed until June or July
and there is little demand for in
creased passenger facilities on
the roads entering that city as a
result at the present time. It is
believed that the volume of St.
Louis business will have begun
by June and the NJ. & O. will be
prepared to care for it from this
section by the addition of the
night trains.

SO conspicuous socially. Miss
Banks is the daughter of Col.
and Mrs. James Q. Banks, and is
a representative Of families
whose history is hound up with
that of the State and who have

admiration is a cherished tribute
to her. On her maternal side
she is a granddaughter of Col.

and is an attractive girl in whom
are united the gentle and lovable
qualities that at once will always

JAPANESE HOLD KOREA
Russians Said to Have Retreat
 ed Across the Yalu.
ANOTHER ATTACK ON PORT ARTHUR

Bombardment Reported to Have Taken
 Place on April 3-No Details-Rus-
 sian Advices Tell of Rigid Censor
 ship-Playins a Waiting Game.
 A little more than eight weeks from the opening of the war sees Japan, without any real fighting, apparently in complete possession of Korea and the first stage of the campaign ended.
 The report has been confirmed that Japanese scouts entered Wiju, Korea, at Il o'clock a. Tn. Monday anu that the Russians apparently retreated be- yond the Yalu river. but no further news of any kind Is to hand throwing light on either land or sea operations. Everything, however, is regarded as pointing to the imminence of impor- tant developments.
 Ii was reported at Chefu on Monday that there was another bombardment of Port Arthur April 3. but that there were no authentic details of the en- gagement available.
 Russian authorities are using great vigilance to prevent news of their plans for the movement to and the disposition of troops in the theater of war from going abroad, where they might be of service to the enemy.
 For ten days not a scrap of real in- formation, except such as Is contained in official dispatches, has been given out or has come from the front. There practically exists an embargo upon news dispatches, those coming through being colorless and devoid of impor- tance.
 General kuropatkin's plan of cam paign is in the keeping of those who will betray nothing. Only the barest outlines are known, ana the rest Is pure guesswork. That she generals plan has been worked out and that it involves the playing of a waiting game until the dispositions of the army have been completed can be stated with positiveness. It can also be stated that the plans are progress ing even more rapidly than expected. Every day is now considered a dis tinct gain for the Russians and as dis tinct loss for the Japanese.
 Major General Pfiug telegraphs from Mukden denying the reports of Japa. nese operations in Manchuria and stat. ing that there are no Japanese troops in Manchuria.
 A telegram received at St, Petersburg from Mukden formally contradicts Eng. fish reports to the effect that the Japa. nese have entered Manehuria.
 At the utmost they have got only as far as Changsieng, on the Yalu.
 The river is difficult to cross and is held by strong Russian guard.
 Grand Duke Boris has joined the7ac. tive army for share in the fighting.
 The Japanese are fortlfying Fusan, southern Korea, and Konje island, of the southern coast, to defend Masampo
 Small infantry garrisons, with hos. pitals, make Pingyang the tertiary and Chinampo the secondary base.

A BAPTISMAL ROBBERY.
Chinese Convert Takes Ministers Cash

Chinese Convert Takes Ministers Cash
 During Immersion.
 Bridgeport, Conn.,, April GA sensa- tion has been caused in religious cir cles here by the discovery that while members of q church, about 1,500 fash. ionable residents of this city, who had gathered at a special Easter service, were rejoicing over the adoption of the Baptist faith by four Chinamen one of : the supposed converts was industrious. ly engaged in picking the pocket of the pastor, the Rev. George w. Nicholson.
 The supposed convert obtained a roll of bills containing between $125 and $150, a part of the salary paid the pas tor by the First Baptist church, one of the wealthiest ecclesiastical organiZa- tions in the city. The thief has not been caught.
 At the special Easter service there was an unusually large attendance and q programme that was designed to be very impressive. The four Chinamen were duly immersed, one by one, and gasped and clutched at the pastor as they were drawn forth from the cleans ing water.
 Mir. Nicholson had t',e money in a pocket of his waistcoat in bills of large denominations. It is thought that dur ing his struggle for breath, partly sim ulated, one of the converts deftly in serted his hand into the pocket con. taining the bills and extracted them.
