ANOTHER BULLION PRODUCER
 FOR YAVAPAI.
(From Fridays DailY.l

Wednesday afternoon signalized the beginning of production on the proper ty of the Pine Mountain Mining com pany on Lynx creek. The mill started 70 drop its ten stamps, and the old camp assumed an air of life and activity af- ter very many years of a dead silence. The machinery has recently been re paired, and the old workings have been cleaned out. in the past few months sufficiently to permit of devel. Opment work. This has resulted be- yOnd antieipations, and the statement is made that the property is unquestion- ably an excellent one. As new ground is cut into from the older workings, it is demonstrated that the methods pre- vailing years ago were lily directed when comparison is made with the prae- tieal side of mining of the present day with that of a limited knowledge of un- derground conditions
 The present management assumed control of this property less than six months ago, and under the superintend- eney of Joseph Carmichael, the re- habilitating of the ground has been pro- secuted so rapidly and successfully in that short time as to create the well founded belief that from this time heneeforth, it consistently may be said that it will be one of the permanent and profitable producers of this mineral field.
 That this enterprise is in an excellen: condition, the management have order ed additional machinery to treat the product, and are also increasing the mine working force. A new Huntin- ton mill is en route, and the force of miners has been increased to twenty. More men will also be placed at work as soon as facilities will permit in the underground workings.
 The ore bodies cut into recently still hold their uniform make up in charac- ter, and the greater the depth reached and the more extensive the exploitation given only the more handsome does the look.
 Mining men of nearly twenty years ago expressed confidence in this par ticular piece of ground, and when it was closed down the nrevaiIinor oninion among those who were not eonversant with the actual conditions evident was that it was worked out.
 Its resumption today and the excel lent showing it makes is but another in favor of the old mines when backed with modern principles of operation, and the lesson taught should be wholesome one all along the line. This property is but twelve miles from Prescott.

HIS FEET TRACKED.
Stranger Arrested Wearing Pair of
 Stolen Shoes.
(From Thursdays Daily.)

(from Ihursday Dally.)
 Night Officer Irwin arrested a strang- CT last evening, with a creaky pair of shoes on, who answered the description of man who made clean sweep of everything in sight at the section house at Del Rio the day before, and placed him in the city bastile.
 Later the accused was identified by the man who lost what little he had. and among the articles was the shoes worn by the accused. The victim says that there was everything taken from him that he owned on earth, and the only article he recovered was the shoes which were taken from the prisoner after he was placed in jail. The city will have to provide board and lodging and if he is put on the chain gang his feet will have to be taken care of also, so as to save the big ball ornament they usually carry. Thus is the city treasury drained.

"SMITHY" SKIPS AND HIS CRED
 IToRS MOURN.
(From Thursdays Daily.)

Smithy, the violinist, who achieved somewhat of a reputation as a musl- elan, and was generally regarded as brainless idiot along with his ae- eomplishments in the former line, has skipped the burg. He took the pre- caution to leave with other people s money also, and the night he deeamped every one on the row who would sub init to his smooth entreaties, was ou. just the sum donated, ranging from q dollar to five.
 Wherever it was possible he also ran his jaw up to a high G, in short ne played no favorites in the game, and soaked all who came within his grasp. from the merchant to the booster at a stud horse game.
 A few weeks ago his wife, woma1 of delicate physique, with an infant to be burdened with, tired of the way wardness of his attentions, and was sent for by her parents, leaving him Tn all the glory of career of dissipation, in which he seemed to revel. Smithy seemed to be delighted with the actions of his wife in this, and said so.
 Wherever he worked in this city he was regarded as nuisance, and after every nights work the management of the saloon employing him had z tag at the wrong end of his account to Haunt in his face. His real name was Rigo, and Smithy was but an alias that he adopted for the convenience of concealing his identity. He was so crooked that he was ashamed of giving the public an insight into his Chris tian lineage.

They came overland from their home at Inverury, Sevier county, and are here to arrange for the removal of the remains of their brother. They called attention to an obituary of their brother published ;n an evening paper, in which the com forting statement appeared that the deceased during his lifetime had killed a man by the name of "Nigger Ben. '' The SOrenson brothers emphatically 7 deny this, and in support of their as sertion produced a clipping from an Albuquerque newspaper which stated that a man by the name of Newman was the murderer, SorensOn s name not even being mentioned.

J. R. Edwards Arranging To Ship Ore.
(From Thursdays Daily.)

NIAOh AAuAou1J OdAAysl
 J. R. Edwards, who for some months past has been working his old Copper Basin claims of the Commercial Mining company under lease, is in the city, to arrange for the shipment of a 4O- ton batch of ore to the Humboldt smelter. He states that the roads and for a short time he will be com pelled to cease work. He also saw that there is no question over the fu- ture of that region, and that while the Commercial people made a failure nearly twenty years ago in copper mining in that region, methods of mining have changed since that time. and the cost of doing work is reduced to a minimum. He is well please with the ground he is working, and believes that that section has very bright future, and especially so when greater depth is given. Leasers on the ground of this company are handi- capped in doing an extensive work, however, the company permitting but a short time period in which to extract ore or to do any development. The building of the Humboldt smelter is highly commended by MT. Edwards, and he says the inducements offered now by this company to market their product are certainly encouraging to men who desire to go ahead and take out ore for ready market

WILL EXPLORE OLD PUEBLoS
 AND RUINS.

Dr. F. M. Palmer, of Los Angeles, is here on mission that will interest many Arizonans. He is the curator of the museum that is being established in that city by the Southwest Society of the Archaeological Institute of America, and is personally in charge of the Arizona researches.
 Two years ago there was inaugurated in Los Angeles an association that in its aims and purposes, appeals strongly to the cultured, refined and scholarly people of Arizona.
 The primary purpose of this associa- tion is the establishment in Los An geles of a great, free, public museum, which is to be distinctly of the south west.
 It was thought (and, no doubt, cor rectly) that by limiting its field of op- erations, at least two important ob jects would be gained: first, great edu- cational institution, devoted essential ly to the preservation of historic and prehistoric monuments of the south west, should have the cordial co-opera- tion of everythoughtful person in the southwest; ceeond, with this commuu ity of interest and of effort; the South west Museum would be made the re- pository of matchless collections illus trative of the history, art, and antiqui- ties incident to this locality.
 The Southwest Society of the Arch geological Institute of America, has undertaken to establish this museum, and it bespeaks the goodwill of the people of Arizona.
 Although it is but two years since the Southwest society was established, it is today numerically the strongest scientific institution in America.
 Henry E. Huntington has donated a site for the building consisting of 20 acres, valued at $sO,OOO Cash con- tributions are continually being made, the largest so far $2O,OO0 by Mrs. Hancock, of Los ARngeles. The society has collections Every large ly gifts) valued at more than $25O, 1000. It maintained a large exploration par ty in Arizona last summer.
 Dr. F. NJ. Palmer has been in Pres cott for few days mapping out plan for the work the society intends doing next year. It is his intention to de- vote practically all his time for the next several years to an investigation of the ancient pueblos and cliff dwell lings of the southwest.
 He is especially desirous of being placed in communication with persons having specific information of unex- plored ruins in this territory, and those who know of anything of this character should address him at Re- 1ondo Beach, Los Angeles Co.,, Cali fornia
 pr. Palmer was a resident of Prescott: thirty years ago, and he was impressed with the wonderful transformation that las taken place during that period, this being his first visit here since that lime. There still remain some old andmarks, which he remembers, and it | vas source of much pleasure to him O view these buildings and recall the | 'lden days.

 In General.
 This particular piece of mining ground is but the keystone of gold mining operations of this section. It was the first to come to the front after the decline of silver, and though handicapped by primitive methods and a lack of capital, the general belief of the mining community of this section is that if given an opportunity, and such as is now assured, it will again take its position at the top of the list.
