tents of this volume deserve to be
ranked with the Hungarian Rhapso-
dies of List and the SlayOnic Dances
OF Dvorak. as mastery translations
Of foik-musie into the i6iom Of the
piano. The composer has selected
his themes from the native songs Of
Africa and the West Indies. and has
found many OF the finest and most
suggestive in the songs which came
into being among the American Ne
groes during the DAYS OF slavery.
which have become familiar through
the work of the Jubilee Singers.
In treating these melodies. Mr.. Col
eridge-Taylor has been careful TO
preserve their distinctive traits and
individuality while giving them form
and structure through consistent
thematic development. Their depth
and spontaueity of feeling. rich and
individual harmonic expression, and
mastery Of technique entitle these
compositions 30 high place in
piano literature.
The volume contains a portrait
of the composer and an explanatory
foreword. besides an introduction
by Booker n. Washington. giving
the biography of the foremost mu-
stefan of his race. aud sketch OF
Negro folk-music.
The volume is one OF the "Musi-

Messrs. Levy, of San Francisco, who have been in Kingman for few weeks looking into the affairs of Gabe and the late Moses Levy, returned Wednes, day from Signal.

Engineer Shackleford was seriously burued his morning at Hack kberry by the blowing off of an injector cap. He was standing on the rnn board of the engine s hen the cap was blown oil with such great force that the eXplos- ion threw him 10 the ground. He was badly scalded on one side, the hot steam and ter reaching from below the hip to the shoulder. He was placed aboard a caboose and record run made to Kingman, where Dr. Ealy did everything possible to alleviate the terrible pain the poor fellow was sui fering. He was taken to Needles and will probably be sent to the hospital at Los Angeles.

During the past year the people of Mohave county have been making an effort in the direction of advertising our mineral resources and have done some very good work. But the fact remains that the sphere of organiza. tions for purposes of publicity Is cir cum scribed and they feel impotent to reach the real or investing public with their literature. Now, should the peo
 pie of Kingman take up a project that has been advocated by this paper the past ten or twelve years, the benefit they would receive would be uncalcu
 lable. We refer to the project of tun- neling under Stockton Hill. A tunnel into the mines of Stockton Hill has more and richer possibilities than any enterprise the people could engage in. A great supply of water will be opene d up and the tunnel will cut many of the great veins of the Stockton Hill coun
 try at depth of 1900 to 15JO feet be. LOW ClS dpeA. luc WOIh Ooh OO uohO cheaply, the necessary plant of ma
 chinery costing only few thousand dollars. A com pany can be organized, the entire cost of which will be taken up in stock. As the people contribute to the scheme they will be allotted shares at a price agreed upon by the board of directors, it being distinctly understood that there shall be no pro
 motors shares. Every dollar paid out for work in the construction of the tunnel will come back to the business men of the town, and the advertising that it will bring will be worth thou
 sands of dollars yearly. It will i'm

The territorial papers are just now saying many complimentary things of Senator Bard, because of what they term his change of heart toward Ari. zona. The fact is Bard holds and eX- presses the same views that he held and expressed Tn the senate last winter, and which called forth such an out. pouring of wrath from these same pa pers. He was opposed to statehood for Arizona then, he is opposed to statehood for Arizona now. His reason for opposition was that Arizona had reached the limit of mineral produc. tion; that her lands are barren and sterile; her plains treeless and water. less, aud her people iillterate igporam- onses. incapable of self government. It was this arraignment that called forth the just wrath of Arizons's people, ard which was made the basis of the polit. ical fight in Califoria that lost him his seat in the United States senate.

The possibility of gam bling closing in Bisbee is leading up to developments in which Naco has an interest. A we'll known sporting mau of Bisbee was over here the other day, and frankly admitted that the object of his visit was to look over this field, with view to opening an establishment here in case the "kibosh" was put on open gambling in the copper camp. He had his eye, moreover, as much On the town across the line as upon Naco, Ariz, since there'is possibility that the coming legislature may taboo gambling altogether in Arizona. In fact, it now seems more than likely that the lawmakers of PheniX will han. dle the proposition without gloves. The Bisbee man had no hesitation in saying that if either of the con ingen. cies referred to above came to fass among the eventualities would be the construction of a trolly line between here and Bisbee to facilitate travel on the part of those sportively inclined. So, if the legislature takes hand at freeze out, Naco may become Monte Carlo, with some conseq .ent improve

London is now threatened with series of pa. rades of the unemployed that will be larger and more determined tn those that wearily tramped the West Fad
 streets daily for two months two win. ters ago. Unless the distress is re- lieved promptly there will be riots.
