GLOBE MINING NOTES.

It is said that Old Dominion state ments show net earnings of s13O, GOO in the past four months, or at the rate of more than s per share.
 J. A. Tucker came in from Pinto creek today, having completed his contract for the extension of the low CT tunnel on the To Tomblen mine 100 feet. The tunnel has now been driven 404 feet, and 1t is the intention of the Pinto Creek Mining and Smelling company to continue it several hun dred feet farther to cut the main ledge. Late last summer rich ore was struck in the upper level, and we un- derstand the showing at present is ex- cellent.
 Old Dominion is hampered by a lack of cars to move sulphide ores from: Bisbee, which prevents the running of more than one furnace and also re- duces the force of miners required to get out ore. Four ears of sulphide ore per day are required to keep two fur naces running, which means that thirty cars are employed between Bis bee and Globe bringing sulphides here and carrying silicious ores from the United Globe back to Bisbee It is expected that more cars will soon be supplied by the Southern Pacific, when another furnace will be blown In by the Old Dominion.-Silver Belt.

A MEXICAN INCIDENT.

A well known member of the Ameri- can colony boarded a crowded car one day last week and in the jam happened to brush against two Mexican gentle men, well dressed and of distinguished appearance. One of them, after a few tense words with his friend turned to the American gentleman and com menced eXpostulating with him. The American not understanding Spanish well. thought nothing in particular of the incident until the two men got off the car when he did and continued to address him as before. Calling a friend who was passing he asked him to act as interpreter. Then he discovered that the two men thought he had in- suited them by brushing against them and they asked for satisfaction. The American got mad. He told the two gentlemen that he would meet them, one after the other at any place, with any weapon, and would give them all the satisfaction that they could possi- ply want With that the American handed them his card. They glanced at the name on the card, and then took off their hats, bowed low and begged the Americano's pardon saying that they were mistaken for the Americana was gentleman and would not insult them under any circums mstances.-Mex ican Herald.

HE WENT WITH THE CASH.
]. N. DeGuire Decamps With the Bank
 Roll Of a Roulette Wheel.

The sporting element of Tempe was considerably aroused yesterday morn ing when it was learned that some time the night before J. N. DeGuire. fam T. iarly known as Mute" had left with the bank roll of the roulette wheel in the Hartman saloon. and it is thought he took with him all the cash in the saloon. This fact could net be verified. as he had taken or destroyed al rec ords of the combination to the safe and had left it locked. The first irtimation sf anything out of the ordinary occurred when Art Gibson presented a check at the hank yesterday which had been given him the night before by DeGuire and payment of it was refused. He then went back to Hartmans. and in- VSstigation revealed the fact that the cafe was locked tight and all record of the combination gone. It was then dis FpTered that the money belonging to the wheel was also missing. Mute had half interest in this wheel with Bat Wesson and the roll amounted to s365. Ii is not known just how much was in the safe. but it is estimated that it waS something over a hundred dollars. Altogether he took somewhere in the neighborhCod of $500.
 It was well iE the forenoon before the theft was discovered. and the off Cers at once began to look up clues as fo the whereabouts of DeGure. It was learned that some time early in the morning yesterday he had hired r.g from Nurphy's stables and had driven to Phoenix, where he rented a double rig and returned with a driver going Pouth He was seen about ten o'clock yesterday by Frank Saylor near his ranch. six miles south of town. It is thought that he was then headed foc Casa Grande or some other point on the 2. ?. All the officers in that vii cinity were notified IS soon as possible by wire and warned 10 be on the out lock for such d party. and it is reason ably certain that he will he Overtaken and be brought back.

THE HUMANITY OF MAN.

A pair or horses were struggling to haul heavily laden sledge into one of the side streets crossing Westminster. The animals worked hard. but it was no use; the sledge was firmly planted where not a flake of SHOW remained.
 A smartly dressed elderly man hap pened along. He watched the vain eff forts of the roor animals two or three minutes.
 Come. boys" he finally shouted. Tets help 'em out"
 Whereat half a dozen men who were !2Sstng and who heard the words in- stantly put their shoulders to the sIedge and tried their best, with the aid of the horses, to start the outfit, but it did not budge
 Twenty more men wanted," again shouted the elderly man. Come on. you men," addressing his remarks to a group of male bystanders: "coma on. twenty of you. and give us a lift"
 And twenty did come; yes, more than twenty, nearly twice that num- Der. The result was satisfactory. One concerted effort of man and beast and the sledge was safely across the car tracks, in clear sailing once more.- Providence Journal

WERE DRIVEN FROM THE CLAIM
Wn. Dennison and Wife Walk from
 Telegraph Pass, Nine Miles.

Considerable controversy has arisen over a mining claim in the vicinity of Telegraph Pass, about ten miles south of Phoenix, in which a number of Tempe people are concerned. It seems that about fifteen years ago Tom Smith and Geo. Todd located the claim in question. and after them Geo. McClar- ty, at present a. night watchman in PhoeniV. got possession of it. All of the above parties, however, failed to do the necessary amount of assessment work on the claim, in fact it is claimed that during the whole time there has not been work done to exceed $25, while the law requires at least $10O year.
 Some time ago Byron Carr, Gabe Cos nor and Vim. Dennison relocated the claims and began active work on it. For the past few weeks Mir. Dennison and his wife and Oscar Mullen have been working there engaged in running a drift. Monday about ten o'clock Den nison and Mullen were in the trench digging and Mrs. Dennison was watch ing them from the top when McClarty appeared on the scene. He drew gun and ordered the whole crowd off the place. MT. Dennison began a conversa- ton with him and tried to reason him out of his intention, but tc no effect, and on account of the danger that threatened his wife they started for camp a short distance from the mine Here Mir Dennison and his wife de- bated for some time what to do. They were nearly ten miles from anywhere, and the only way to get there was to walk. Consequently they started for Byron Carr's, a distance of nine miles over the desert in the middle of the day. The trip was made without acci- dent. but it was a walk that would tax any woman's strength. MT. Mullen re- mained there as a disinterested party.
 Monday evening MT. CCsner went to Phoenix to swear out a warrant for McClarty. but was unsuccessful. MT. Carr and several others have gone to the mine with the intention of staying there regardless of what happens.

BIG BEARS IN ALASKA.
There Are So Many of Them That
 Stock Raisers Make Complaint.

Senator Foster of Washington State has received a Macedonian cry for help from the ravages of big bears in Alaska. If President Roosevelt ever again wants a glorious hunt for bruin. Mir. Foster is willing to pilot him 70 the grounds where great game is plen- tiful. The Alaskan variety of bear is said to weigh from 1.5OO to 1.SOO pounds.
 A recent letter in Mir. Fosters mail from Seattle tells the story. We shipped 300 head of cattle and 91O0 breeding ewes to Kodiak, Alaska. last spring." writes a firm of packers from that city. "The bears have been getting into the bunch and have killed 503 to date. During the mixup about twelve bears were slain. About thir- ty days ago two bears got into the sheep and after killing twenty-onc sheep and tearing the coat of one man the bears were killed. The United States marshal on hearing of this had all our men arrested for killing the bears. Five of our men were compen- ed to stand trial at. considerable ex- pense to us.
 The bears are very numerous on the island" continues this letter. and since they have tasted sheep the sheep are badly scared and are continually piling up. Unless something is done with the bears they will put us out of business"
 l. Senator Foster is puzzled as to just how he can help his constituents in their plight They assert that boun- ty of at least g. a head should be placed on the bears for year or two in order to clear them out.-Washing- ton Post.

ROGERS WINS THE BRlpLE.

John Rogers, of Detroit, Mich, was the fortunate winner of the fancy hair braided hridle. that was rallied off here by Dudley Messinger. Several of thesa pieces of workmanship had been sent to parties in the valley by a man in the penitentiary In a northern state to be rafled off here. The ticket that won the prize was No. 61. The drawing took place while Mr. Rogers was in Detroit, and he was not aware of his good luck until his return here. While he will have no use for 1t in an ordinary way, 1t will make a neat mementCl of the time spent in the Salt River valley.

LAKE SUPERIOR AND ARIZONA
Suit Filed by F. s. Pheby For an in-
 terest in It's Mining Ground.

Tuesday there was filed in the dis trict court at Florence, says the Blade, a suit in which Fred s. Pheby is plain tiff and Geo. I.obb and his successors, the Lake Superior and Arizona Copper company, are made defendants. The action Is brought to recover an un- divided one-fourth interest in the Golden Eagle mine, and an undivided one-half interest in the Golden Eagle Extension mine. Both of said mines are located on Queen creek, at Su- perior, and are the properties now dn- dergoing development by the com . pany above named. The complaint does not claim record title in tile plaintiff but sets up that in January, 1898, Geo. Lobb promised as agent for Fred $. Iheby to locate the old Gem mine in the name of himself and one Woolf, with the express understanding and agreement that the said Geo. Lobb was to hold in trust for the said Fred s. Phelby an undivided onefourth in terest in said claim and that in com pliance with said promise and agree ment, did locate said old Gem claim in the name of himself and WoOlf, and recorded it as the Golden Eagle mining claim. That two years thereafter the St!u CreO. I4ODD did lOcale III ms own name the Golden Eagle Extension min ing claim, with an express prior agree ment that he was to hold in trust for the said Fred s. Pheby an undivided onc-half interest in said Golden Eagle Extension mining claim. The com plaint is signed by Thos. B. Pheby and J. F.. O'Connor as attorneys for plain- tiff. The Blade is not advised as to the merits of this controversy but un- derstands that the plaintiff relies on documentary evidence outside of the official records, for proof of his title

A FATAL ACCIDENT.
A. H. Lake Blown Up at the San Car
 los Copper Camp.

A. H. Lake, a miner in the employ of the Saddle Mountain Mining com pany, was accidentally killed at the San Carlos copper camp on Monday, the. 10th inst, says the Globe Silver Belt.
 Frank Boston, our informant, states that Lake had split the fuse of five loaded holes in the bottom of a winze and the Mexican at the windla=s. in obedience to the signal, started to hoist Lake to the level. After he had been raised a short distance the rope doubled back on the drum until it came in contact with the standard and pre- vented the drum from turning, leaving Lake suspended about fifteen or twenty feet from the bottom of the winze. He called to the Mexican to hoist in hur- ", and the latter, in his excitement, gave the handle of the windlass a wrench which threw the journal of the windiass out of the standard and Lake fell to the bottom of the winze The Mexican then ran to get help and met miner by the name of Reed in the crosscut about 100 feet distant Has tenirg ot the shaft, Reed called to Lake ta pull or cut the fuse, which had to be repeated before Lake understood He had succeeded in pulling three of the fuses when the other two charges ex- ploded
 Lake was taken out of the winze within a few minutes and partly re- covered consciousness. He had been terribly injured in the left shoulder. the bones being crushed and the pieces of rock having penetrated the lung cavity causing hemorrhage, which proved fa- tai within twenty minutes after the ac-
