A PAPER OF TACKS.

You can't civilize the fellow who
doesn't care.
The best advice some Of lis can give
is, "Do as l don't"
The goodness Of the interrupted Is as
fiat as eggs without salt.
The more brains under the hat the
less jewels hanging to the clothes.
Some folks ought to take their con-
sciences out once in awhile for exer-
else.
Being ahead of time may spoil min
ute; being behind time may waste a
day.
Silence isn't always golden. The talk
er with something to say is worth a
dozen keep stills.
The school is the presents birthplace
of futures, and when we shorten Its
usefulness we rob ourselves and we
steal from the future.-lInyfield Mower

An Apinal Story For
Little Folks
The VENTURESOME
MOSQUITOES

There once lived In New Jersey two
very smart little mosquitoes who were
tired of the humdrum of everyday life
and who thought it would be the very
best fun that ever happened for them
to start out and visit some of their
relatives in Pennsylvania during the
winter season.
So off they went into the mountainous
region, and very soon they came across
any number of the staid mosquitoes
Of that section. who expressed the
greatest pleasure at meeting them.
The visitors stuck their long bills
into the ground and set the little saws

Lee and Longstreet at High
Tide.

ne people OF Georgia and the
south will refuse to be pred ju-
diced against Mrs. Longstreet's
book on the life of the War
Horse" of the Confederacy, by
the suggestion that it was writ
ten in spirit of friendliness to
the north. Mrs. Longstreet was
born in the American Union,
after the Confederate struggle
had become the Lost Cause" of
American history. She evident
ly has never known what it is to
hate anything American. It was
high patriotism, worthy of the
opening days of a new century,
that prompted young woman
OF the new south to invite a val
orous Union officer to write the
introduction to the biography of
a dead adversary.
The opening words of General
Sickles' introduction to Lee and
Longstreet at High Tide" happ-
lily silence all criticism:
IF it be thought strange that
should write a preface to the
memoir of CONSPICUOUS adver-
sary, reply that the civil war is
only memory, its asperities are
forgotten, both armies were
American, old army friendships
have been renewed, and new
army friendships have been
formed among the com batants,
the truth of history is dear to all
of us and the amenities of chiv-
alrous manhood are cherished
alike by the north and south,
when justice to either is involv-
ed"
Sickles is one of the most ia
nous of the surviving Union Off
GERS of the civil war. He has
been prominent in Democratic
politics in New York since the
war, and has suffered much in
consequence.
The south will not fall out with
Mrs. Longstreet for defending
the great name she bears, now
/ that the stout warrior is dead
land cannot answer his accusers;
| a magnanimous people will hon
Tor her Tor it.
Here in Georgia there will be
nothing but sympathetic interest

mond drill hole. This drill hole had been stopped and a third one was just being stated when the orders came to close down the property.
 There is said to be still money on hand to continue work, and it is ap- parent that the faith of many of the stockholders of the Mitchell is of sufficient strength to create a desire on their part that the exploratory work shall be carreid to a further stage.
 The most uncomfortable thing, about the Mitchell is the fact that the options on the property expire towards the close Of the present year. Nego- tiations will probably be authorized at the coming meeting looking towards an extension of these options. Captain Piper, who was superintendent of the property until he returned ea.st last May. will be in attendance at the meeting. The property at the time work was discontinI ed was in charge of Superintendent H ooper.

The Sonora Mining company. ir

 interested as stockholders. appear,
 up against serious dificuities in the
 matter of development of it's original
 properties. To relieve the embar.
 Tassment evidently extant. the com.
 pany now presents a new scheme to
 the stockholders in the following cir. cuIar letter. dated from Utica. N. Y.
 This company was originally incor. porated and its stock floated upon the market for the purpose of developing ana operating an extensive group of copper. lead and silver mines in North. ern Sonora Mexico. which the com. pany purchased after it's incorpora- ton, and still owns them. The char. acter and size of the ore bodies are well known. but it has been found necessary to perform very exhaustive development work upon these proper. ties before the ores can be reduced at profit. Because of the necessary outlay incident to this development IL has been deemed wise to discontinue the work on them for the present. we have found a gold and silver property largely developed with ore on the dumps. Upon this property we have taken an option through our auxiliary Mexican corporation, La Negoccacion Minera de la Fortuna. and nave every assurance that by erecting lpon it a stamp mill and cyanide plant We can immediately begin to pay dividends and create a sinking und for the further development of 'ur main properties. To obtain the unds for the purchase price of this property. and for the erection of the necessary machinery for operating it successfully. we have decided to offer he stockholders the following attract ve plan. viz: Bonds of the Sonora !, and Mining company to the
Bisbee daily review., 1904-09-18

amount of fifty thousand dollars SC,
 cured by its net profits to be repaid before any dividends are declared to
 stockholders. If a letter of acceptance
 from any stockholder. accompanied by
 remittance to cover his subscription
 to the bond so offered to him for sub
 scription or security for the same
 satisfactory to the secretary of this
 company. be not received by the Secre-
 tary Of this company within thirty days after the posting of such offer to
 his address as shown on the stock
 books of the company, the said bond
 may be offered and sold to any DIT. chaser.
 As bonus for these bonds we have set aside 50.000 shares of the capital stock of the company, to be issued to purchasers of the bonds. each pur. chaser to receive an amount of stock full paid and non-assessible. equal to the amount of his purchase of bonds. It IS considered matter of importance to all stockholders that each shall participate in the benefits to accrue rom the issuance of these bonds by making subscriptions for same pro- poruoned to their present holding of stock, and thereby insure the collec- .ion or funds required for the prompt oeVeiopment of the work at the gold | mines. In furtherance of the fore l soing proposition it is deemed advis- lbie and essential that each and ev- cry stockholder shall take a bond for It least 6. per cent of his or her hold ngs and as much additional as in hIs 'r her judgment the property may warrant. The minimum of these bonds S six. dollars, and none are issued fraction of a dollar. Re nittances for these bonds shall be y New York draft. postal, or express money order, payable to the order of he sonora Milling and Mining com ,any.
