Of defeat it is intended to hold the

There probably are 10000 Japanese

DIES IN ASYLUM AT PHOENIX.
Mrs. I. K. Davis. Receives Telegram Tell
 ing of the Death of Her Husband.

From Douglas American.
 inc sad T.~wS came last week from
 the officers of the territorial insane
 asylum to Mrs. T. K. Davis, of this
 city, that her husband died in that
 institution, where he had been cared
 for since last summer. T. K. Davis
 was well known in both this county and in Graham county. He has re- sided in the territory for many years. For a long time he was q clerk in the Arizona Copper company's store in Clifton. Afterwards he owned and conducted drug store in Stafford. in the Gila valley. He was d bright young man of excellent habits. in- dustrious and intelligent. He is d brother of Herbert Davis, of the gen eral office of the Copper Queen com pany in this city, and Dr. w. $. Davis, now of Los Angeles, but who was for years in charge of the medi- cal department of the Detroit Cop per company at Morenci.
 The deceased was q resident of Douglas for year or more and for q time was employed in the time keepers office at the Copper Queen shelter. Last spring he showed evi- dent signs of failing mind and growing steadily worse Mrs. Davis, on the advice of physicians and friends of this city secured con- mission of hcr husband to the insane asylum at Phoenix. Since he has been in Phoenix there has been no hope for his recovery from his af1lic- tion. Mrs. Davis visited him once in Phoenix, but he was scarcely able to recognize her.
 Mrs. Davis left to attend to the buryinS of her husband. carrying the sincere sympathy of many friends in this city.

GOLDFIELDS A WONDER.
Editor Banta Writes an Interesting Let.
 ter to the Douglas American.

''I want to give you few Drlef sketches of the Goldfield country. as l have been here now more than two months prospecting. l find Goldtields to be the greatest camp l have ever visited and believe it is the great est camp of its age on earth. Some four or five mines are producing high grade gold ore from the grass roots to the bottom of their works. The water supply is limited and wood scarce. Wood is SIS per cord and gO- ing higher.
 The town is located twenty-eight miles south of Tonopah, in low hillv country, at the foot of flat top mountain that seems to be badly burnt. although the mines are in DOT phyry dykes in the foothills.
 IL is common to hear of strikes in
 the camp. and strikes that mean thousands of dollars: the gold shines through the rock like diamonds.
 II would judge there are about 30Oo
 people in Goldfelds. They are com ing and going like bees. Late in the afternoon it is safe to say you can see q thousand men on the street at one time. In the forenoon most of them go out of town prospecting. The town is mostly tents, but houses are being built as fast as material can be brought in. There are now about two hundred houses of all kinds.
 "A brick yard is in operation, but it can't half supply the demand. The entire business of the town seems to be overdone. but they are making money. As to manual labor or mining work, q man can get all he wants at top wages. Miners get S4 d day. Everybody has money and spends it freely. The saloons are crowded until it is hard to get in or out of them. There are forty sa- looms, seven or eight stores and about twenty restaurants and lodgings.
 'Goldfelds is not the only good camp in the country. Twenty-Five miles south of here is little camp
 
 called Lida. located in the Lida Bell mountains, which is well timbered, watered and mineralized. It has mostly low grade ore and carries more silver than gold, but there are some late strikes that carry good values. There are four mines work ing in the Lydia camp and several others are being shaped up getting ready for work
 "Thirty miles southeast of Gold fields is the Gold Crater, . small camp, but very rich. Seventy miles south from Goldficlds is the noted Bull Frog camp that is now attracting wide at tention, and is the making of d big camp. O. w. BANTA."

GETTING LARGER
 PARADISE STRIKE.
Chiricahua Development Company has Twenty-fOur Feet of Eleven Per
 Cent Ore.

IT. Alexander. who has charge ot the mining enterprise in the vicinity of Paradise known as the Cochse Consolidated Mining company. was a passenger last week from Bisbee tC the mines. He only arrived from Pittsburg, the headquarters of the company, few days ago he was in an eXhuberant frame of mind at the general conditions prevailing in the Paradise district.
 Mir. Alexander told the Interna- tional-Amcraican that the reported strike in the shaft of the Chiri- cahua Development company was of great importance as cfleCting the future of the camp. At the 3o0-fOot level twenty-four foot body of II per cent. sulphidc copper ore had been cut and the work was still in ore. This is almost sufficient to guarantee d great mining camp where will be employed many hum drcd men and from which will come unlimited quantities of ore and re- fined metal.
 Speaking of the mines of the Co., chiSc Consolidated MT. Alexander stated that the development work was being pushed and that the re- suits pointed to the fact that this company would have property which would rival that of the Michi- gan company.
 Other companies are rapidly get ting ready to begin development of promising property in the district which is attracting more attention now than ever before.
