Major Hargrave, of Tombstone. and
associates, went to Kelvin last week to
| buy mill and move it to a gold prop
erty situated south of Casa Grande,
near Brownell. They think they have
a good gold mine and expect TO make il
pay from the grass roots down.
The teaching experiment on the Ray
ores is still in progress and is said to
be successful A few minor details are
yet to be worked out, but that will soon
be accomplished and then teaching on
large scale will be undertaken.
The management think they will be
ready to commence active operations al
the mine and mill inside of 80 days.
With the resumption of permanent
operations at the Ray will begin the
permanent and rapid growth of Kelvin.
Mott +. Guild has succeeded in plac-
ing the Maxfield Copper group with an
eastern company, organized and financ-
ed by j. B. Riley of New York. This
property is located in the Owl Head
copper district, Pinal county, and has
been worked for twenty years past by
the owner, Frank Maxfeld. During
that period Frank made his living by
taking out ore and shipping it in car
load lots. He concentrated the ore by
means of hand jig and the jig yielded
on an average of Is per cent copper,
about $40 gold and 100 ounces silver
per ton of concentrates.
From the Arizona Republican.
Preparations are making for a re-
sumption of work on the Aboriginal
group of mines at Cochrane station, on
the p & E. railroad, ten miles this
side of Kelvin. The property is owned
by John S. Cochrane, postmaster at
Cochrane, A. l.. Jones of this city and
Frank Harvey of Kelvin. The property
consists of six full claims and is cross
ed by the railroad track, the Gila river
being within few yards of it also.
Mr.. Cochrane has lived in that vicinity
long time and is the original locator
of the ground. The property is devel-
oped but little, nevertheless sufficient
work has been done to show the most
promising indications. There is one
tunnel in about 100 feet and another
about $50 feet. Assays show the ore
to carry all the way from two to forty
per cent copper, several dollars in gold
and in several places considerable sill
yer values. There are two iron capped
dikes between which most of the de-
velopment work is being done. One of
the dikes, which is in all probability an
ore body, has cropping of fifteen feet
and though it has not been cut at depth
there is every indication that it is the
basis of large mine.

AMERICA FOUND TOO SOON
Western World Was Discovered Cen
fury Earlier Than It Should
Have Been.

ChicagO.-"One of the greatest mis-
fortunes to America" said Prof. ]. Paul
GOOde, of the University of Chicago, to
the junior college students in division
meeting, that Columbus discovery was
made too soon. 1t would have been i'm
measurably better for the western hem
isphere if it had not been heard of for a
hundred years after 1892"
A century later, the professor eX-
planned, Europe was advanced further
than in the days of the GenOese naviga-
tor. In 1000 it would have been in be t.
ter condition to take upon itself the set
tlement and development of a new con
tinent. There might have been a elf
ferent kind of growth. which would have
been better than that which finally re-
suited
The professor refrained from going
in more detail into what might have
been. He asserted he had no personal
quarrel with Columbus because Of the
latter's achievements The sailors in
tentions were good, according to the pro-
lessor, and he should not be held ac-
cOuntable for the harm he unwittingly
did. 1t was a mistake, but bis object
was worthy.

GERMANS FIGHT REBELLION
Battling Under Blazing Sun of South
west Africa Without Water,
Troops Go Mad.

Berlin.-The terrible conditions un-
der which the Germans are conducting
their campaign against the rebellious
blacks in southwest Africa are illus
trated by the following report taken
from the WindhOek papers:
An assault was made on position &C.
cupied by the natives under Henrik
WitbOi during the first days of the new
year. The advance, which was led by
Maj. Meister, was hampered by deep
sand, and the first assault was repulsed.
The troops charged a second time.
and came within 80 PAGES of the enemy,
but were again forced to retreat, leav-
ing ten men behind Then the water
supply ran out. The troops lay in the
blazing sun, and many went raving mad
through thirst. The sufferings of the
wounded were atrOciOus.
After fight lasting 81 hours, the
enemy was driven from its position,
but further operations were impossible
owing to the complete exhaustion of
the men and to the fact that the artillery
had only IL grenades and eight shrap-
nels left. During the fighting-so runs
the report-''the Hottentots gibed at our
soldiers, shouting to them: 'Deutsch-
man very thirsty. Plenty good water
here"

Indiana on the Other Hand Shows
Increase in Marriage Record
County Marks.

Indianapolis, Ind.-AccOrding to the
reports received by the secretary of the
board of statistics from every county
in the state, with the exception of Brown
county, the number of marriages for the
year just passed is greater than that of
the preceding year, and the divorce is
on the wane.
In the state of Indiana 1928 mar
riages were performed last year and
3,435 divorce DEGREES were issued, as
against 28,0O5 marriages during the
preceding year and 3763 divorces OF
these, 2.516 were issued to the woman
this year and 2,568 last year.
The statistics also show that drunk
enness among women is on the increase
and on the decline among the members
of the sterner sex. Ten husbands were
freed because their wives drank, 269
wives were separated from their hus-
bands on account of intemperance. The
report of the year 1903 shows that only
two husbands were divorced because of
their wives fOndness for the cup that
cheers, while 342 were made single be-
cause of their own fondness for drink.
Marion county judges granted di-
vOrces to 100 men and to 342 women.
In these the chief grounds for complaint
were cruelty and abandonment Mar
riage licenses were issued to 2,675 cOu-
pies. st. Joseph county holds the rec
ord as being the only one from which a
wife secured divorce from her husband
because he had been convicted of a
felony.

Frightened by Tolling Bell, It Flies
Through Plate Glass Kill
ing Itself.

Wolsey, S. D.-Frightened by the
ringing of the village school bell, two
prairie chickens that had taken refuge
in the tower few out as straight and
swift as an arrow to the opposite side
of the street, where the leading bird
with great velocity hit a heavy plate
glass store window and, going through
it like a bullet through a target,
dropped dead on the floor, a distance
of 20 feet from the window.
The chicken went through the glass
with SUFFICIENT force to cut hole six
inches in diameter. Its companion
struck the side of the hole, making 1t
larger and failing inside with the shat
tered pieces Of glass.
The second prairie chicken apparent
ly was not badly injured. for it swift
ly recovered itself and escaped through
the hole which 1t had entered.
