SEARCHING FOR ALLEGED
FABULOUSLY RICH MINES
SUPPOSED TO BE LOCATED SOME.
WHERE IN MARlcOPA COUNTY,
ARIZONA.

Undaunted by failures that have
crowned his efforts during the past
twenty-six years, Sam F. Webb left
Phoenix with George Webb and ]. ID.
Milton to once more search for a fab
ulously rich gold ledge that he Is con
WINGED lies in Maricopa county, in the
vicinity of Arlington, says the Phoe-
nix Enterprise.
While Webb was running cattle in
1870, near Arlington, he took several
samples from a ledge he happened to
find during his horseback rides. Some
time later he had the samples assayed
and found one of them to run $3.50 in
gold and $31.40 in silver.
Believing that he could at once re-
turn to where the rich ledge was To-
Gated, Webb hurried to stake out sew
eral claims and arrange for develop
ment work. He was disappointed to
find that the ledge was no longer
there, or at least he could not find it.
In all the years since then Webb
has never for once doubted that he
would some day find the ledge, and
with that end in view lps several
times organized small parties that
have gone in quest of the rich find,
only to return to Phoenix empty
handed.
Webb's confidence has lever waver-
ed, and in speaking of the search up
on which he has started, he stated
that he expected this to be the last
trip it will be necessary to make, as
he feels certain that it will prove the
successful one.
81 know there is a rich ledge where
l found the piece that vas later sam.
Pied" remarked Webb. ut was not
a piece of float, for I knocked the
sample from a ledge that at the time
l thought l could return to without
trouble"
Webb makes no secret of just where
he thinks the ledge is located, stating
that it is about six miles west of Ar
lington, being somewhere between Ar
lington and Woolsey peak, Others
have looked for the same ledge, but
have found It.
About a year ago, Webb and Tom
Parish went in search of the property,
spending several weeks in the low
hills. After what they thought to be
a thorough search they were obliged
to return to Phoenix to announce that
they had not succeeded, and that the
ledge was still a hidden treasure.
! 1t has been suggested that Webb
that the assayer might have deceived
him, but this cannot be for he stood by
while the assay was being made, the
expert having informed him before
beginning that it was poor rock, and
would only run a small value in silver.
The gold button that resulted amazed
them both.
There is M reasonable explanation
for Webb's failure to relocate the
ledge during all these years, which is
that the Indians knew of his where
abouts and saw Webb take a sample.
After he left they covered it in such
a manner that it has remained hidden
ever since.

INDIAN BOYS AT SANTA FE
INDIAN SCHOOL SKIP OUT

Some time Saturday afternoon four
of the Indian boys, who are pupils at
the United States Indian training
school in Santa Fe, having become tir-
ed of school life, took French leave
and departed for spots unknown.
Three of them were Navajoes and one
a Papago. The authorities at the
school, as soon as the boys were
missed, secured the bloodhounds from
the pen~itentiary and endeavored to
find in which direction the runaways
had gone. In this, however, they were
unsuccessful, and superintendent
Crandall, of the school. sent out two
men with teams and one on horse
back, and also notified the police and
several special Indian agents to be on
the lookout. Nothing has been heard
from the fugitives yet, but Mr.. Gran
dali thinks it will be but a short time
until they will be apprehended. This
is the first year at the school for all
of them and it is supposed that the
confinement at their work was not TO
their liking and so they struck for
freedom.

APPLES TO MAKE
OWNER VERY PROUD

r. G Bartholomew, the Tesuque
ho%rticulturist. spent yesterday in town
shipping fruit. w. H. Wise of Tesu-
cue and he have been on a trip TO
southern Santa Fe county and have
inspected conditions in the Nambe and
Pojoaque valleys. They found ranch
affairs in excellent shape and a third
cutting Of alfalfa in progress. There
will be large crops of onions and beans
In that section. At the Bouquet or
chard at Pojoaque, they found hat ex-
tensive sales of good fruit had been
made during the season. From four
apple trees there were gathered 40
boxes of apples, the boxes averaging
so pounds apiece. The apples on one
tree averaged one and one-half pounds
in weight and were of excellent eating
quality. The honey crop this season
has also been quite satisfactory. The
fruit crop Is pretty well shipped, only
very late peaches and winter apples
remaining. FIom the Bouquet orchard
three car loads of apples and other
fruit have already been shipped and
Cicero Wiedner estimates that he has
three car loads of winter apples yet
to ship. The Bouquet orchard is one
of the finest in the United States.
The first trees were set out by John
Bouquet, who came to New Mexico
over forty years ago, and was a fine
gardener.
Mr.. Bartholomew says that he no
tced much more land under c|ultiya-
tion and in crops than heretofore and
there are still large areas of land open
for irrigation and cultivation in the
valleys of the Nambe, Pojoaque and
Tesuque rivers.
The fact that over 1000 pounds of
apples were taken from four trees in
the Bouquet orchard, is, Of course, re-
m~arkable, but there are in Santa Fe
county and in the Santa Fe valley
trees that a show almost as good
a record. On the Gould orchard at
San I|ldefOnso, this years entire apple
crop on four acres was sold on the
trees for $500. Mr.. Bartholomew
thinks that there is lots Of room in
nothern Santa Fe county for a large
number of farmers and fruit grower
who are not afraid TO work, and who
will cultivate from ten to forty or
my acres in fruits, vegetables and
cereals. He is of the opinion that such
men would not only make a good liy.
ing but put by much money, and in a
lew years after settling and as soon
as their orchards attain maturity they
would become wsll 20 do.-New Mex

PRECIPITATION THUS FAR
IN OTERO COUNTY,

Dry Land Farmer Dunn reports that
with last Mondays rain, since Janu-
airy LIST, makes a total of 16.24-100
inches. From this 1t will be easily
be figured out why crops have done
so remarkably well this year.. There
are yet three months of the year, and
before January l, 1906, we may get
all sorts of rain. If farmers here
abouts would take advantage of the
winter rains, and thoroughly prepare
their land, mex years crop could be
made with but very little rain, pro-
viding the proper system of cultiva-
ton is employed. Farming in this
country requires a system. Farming
in some of the rich states where rains
are plentiful do not require some
scientific system by which to work
for a profit; in New Mexico, or dry re-
gions, farming is a science.
