A S5, 1000 NUGGET
Prescott Bank Which Makes a Sue
 cess of Buying Gold Bricks.

A five thousand dollar nugget is rather an unusual thing for a man to be carrying round with him even in this land of rich mineral wealth but it was just that sort of mug get that George F. Upton had secreted upon. or around. or near. h-s person a few days ago while he jOurneyed from Wickeuburg to Prescott where he put it safely away in the Prescott Ma tional bank. There are nuggets and nuggets. Some of them are found ready made and are always a source of great interest to the curious but in these parts the made to order kind is equally as pleasing when the mate rial is of the proper fneness, and it was a made to order nugget, more properly called brick thst MT Up ton turned over to Cashier R. N. Fred ericks. It was tFe product of the five stamp mill that MT. Upton has been running on the Oro Ora ade mine for months past and though it is by no means the first output of his little ,.oldbricl1 factory it was the first brick according to a Prescott paper to find its way into Prescott from that mine
 While the Orc Grande mine is ac- tually in Yavapai county it is so near the boundary line that Maricopa coun- ty first tried to claim it and as most of the Wfckenburg district of which the Orc Grande is at present the bright shining star, is in this county, it is industrially. a feeder for this commercial center. Yavapai gets the name and Maricopa gets the game.
 The five stamp mill at the Orc Grande is merely an experimental en- terprise to test the nature of the ores, their value and the best means of working them. If results are satstac- tory, and it is understood they have been thus far, the erection of a large reduction plant is proposed for the near future.

A NEW MINERAL.

The Vienna Workingman Journal
 reports that at the general meeting of the Mineralogical Society of Vienna, January 9. 1905. Dr. Morosiewicz. pro lessor of mineralogy at the University of Krakau, announced that he had dis covered a new mineral. to which he had given the name Beckolith. in hon- or of the Vienna mineralogist. Prof. Friedreck Beck. He asserted that it
 does not correspond to any of the min eral combinations of garnet. having similar regular crystals, and contains many rare earths, which form sevey- ty-five per cent of its volume. The chief component are cerium, lantha- nun, and didymium oxides. and it may be of use for the manufacture of chemical products. especially for the light industry. The discovery was made during a scientific exploration which Professor Morosiewicz made in
 southern Russia. and the government district of EkaterinosIaf is probably the chief locality where the mineral may be found. The rock in which it was discovered is called marinpolith.

JUAN JOSE DEAD.
The Old Chief Of the Msricopss and
 Friend Of the Whites.

Juan Jose. the old chHf Of the Mar .icopas. is dead and the reservation is ringing with the walls of the women. The story of his death was brought 10 town yesterday morning by Maricopa Charlie, who requested the old timers here to tell each other of the sad event
 Nobody knows how old Chief Juan Jose was. the oldest Indian on the reservation remembers that when he was a boy the chief was an old man. The earlier whites who came ners more th9n a generation ago say that though the chief was then quite active he looked as old as he did forty years later. His face bore all the msvks of great age. The skin was net work Of wrinkles and the years had bleached his eyes white.
 In his day Juan Jose was a great war chief Though the friendship Of his tribe for the whites was tradition .al there was always deadly enmitv be tween the Maricopas and the Apaches. About the time the first whites settled iE the valley the old chief conducted all NNhNA4AlDn AnAN NAAE upN- 1AAAsol mountains and the Maricopas tell vet of the great slaughter of %SS Apaches. Juan Jose was the leader of the h. dian forces which assisted by a rev white settlers of the valley marched against the raiding band of Big Rump. Killed him and drove his band into the businesses of the eastern mountains.
 The last important service the old chief performed against the Apaches was his guidance Of a force unuer IGeneral Crook against them when the conquest of that warlike tribe was begun. It wasnOt. however, conclud- ed until many years later.
 For many years Juan Jose had been ia receipt of a regular pension from this county His name was on the indigent list but he was not regarded by successive boards of supervisors as an indigent The gratuity he re- ceived had been well earned by his warm weIcoure of the whites when the settlement was young and strug- gling and by his constant prevention of clashes between the members of his tribe and the settlers.

JUMPING OF THE
 SILVER KING MINE
BOTH SIDES TO TAE CONTEST OVER THE OLD TIME eao-

Claim They Have Right With Ther. compsny Asserts it Has Kept UP Work consistent'y-Oifferert opin- ions zo to Grounds Va'ue.

Arizona has furnished a couple of instances within the past few years of the jumping of a famous mine
 ground ths, has produced heavily. and a property fully equipped with an expensive plant of machinery. The latest case. which will prove interest ing. is that of the Silver King. sltuat- cd in Pinai county. The owner. or former owner, as the court may de- eide, is the Silver King Mining Com pany. The company claims mat It has at al times kept a watchman to guard the pro@srty and to superintend the performance Of the annual assess ment work. necessary every year to claim to have done each year. The jumpers. or the other hand allese that not only was the assessment work not performed. but that they have (the jumpers) invaded the prop eTty and performed $500 worth of work upon 1t in exploration. All of which Illustrates the advisability or carrying a claim to patent as quickly as possible. Such a matter is more easily overlooked by a big company than by a small one. where the work is not performed ct once.
 The Silver King is one Of the ia nous old mines of the early days It was this property that mainly support ed Florence and the towns of Silver King and Pinal in their days of pros perity. and t has produced millions of dollars worth of silver bullion in the past But for the last fifteen years it has onlv been worked in spasmodic and desuitory sort of way. The output has been smaller. no doubt. than the money put into 1t in exploration. Opinions differ con cerning it's present value. There are many who believe there is vet more rich mineral to be found in the prop erty than has ever been taken from it, if it were systematically and exten- sively worked. while others contend that it has been worked out In any event. there is much valuable machin- cry on the ground. as there was very large plant in operation at one time.-Ores and Metals.
