work, and unless some accident de- | lays further progress the ore body will
 be reached within the next sixty days. This main tunnel is one of three that have been under way to tap certain ore bodies, and having been started at a depth of about $500 feet, and an
 other below the 700 foot level The tunnel now being driven is the last of i the preliminary work on the group
 and upon its tapping the ledge which | is expected to contain rich values,
 mine in full operation is expected to
 be the result. While no details will
 be given to the public, it is no secret that there is an abundance of capital behind this proposition, and that ar engagements for opening up the prop erty have been under way for many months past. The property comprises ] a number of valuable claims.
 COCHISE COUNTY.
 Many miners took advantage of the late hard rains south of Douglas and. went out into the hills and canyons and picked up gold nuggets enough to
 make themselves comparatively wealthy. In all of the arroyas and canyons after every rain, Mexican and American prospectors have found con siderable quantities of placer gold. the rains washing out the hills and Ieav- ing the gold exposed to the naked eye making the process of securing the yellow metal comparatively easy. Af- ter the last rain in that district at least s15,O00 in gold was taken out of the hills and one man found about $3.000 in nuggets and coarse gold These are rich placer fields, but in the absence of water, except after rains, makes the process of separating the
 gold from the dirt very difficult. The
 dirt is a red clay mixture which makes
 the use of dry washers an impossi- bility.
 Attorney Carlos Robles, well known and liked in mining camps bordering i on old Mexico, one of the most prominent lawyers in the state of GUanajuatO, was lately in the city of Parral for the purpose of arranging plans for a miners convention that is to be held in that city some time in | this month. MT. Robles was instru- mental in cOnvoking the last miners convention, held in the same city of ParraI a few months ago, for the pur- pose of joining in a body and appeal ing to the government for a reduction of the mining taxes, which convention was very successful in carrying out it's work and in securing what was then : desired. Many Americans from this
 side of the line will attend the con- vention.

THE TYRANNY" MALE"

AprOpos of summer raiment man Peered at himself in a mirror one day last week with a disgusted expression that spoke louder than words. He was not a heavy man nor a cOrpulent man or man who was inclined to take on fiesh he was a very fat man and he said:
 Women may be peculiar and finicl1y in some things. but when it comes to common sense dressing in hot weather they have us worse than left at the post; were left in the paddock. We're not even among the also rams Does a woman get up in the morning and swathe her neck in starched banda ges tnd draw a scarf around her throat that chokes her and load her body down with everything that happens to be hanging on nails end chairs? She does not; she puts on q few lOw-cut, fiimsy garments and unless she has to iron or hang out the wash, it'll make you shiver to pass her, no matter if it's 90 in the shade.
 But what do I do in order to be conventional? I button on a four-ply collar with an extra thickness in front, yank and saw a fourth hand into it's place, knot it and perspire. Then worm into a wOOIen waistcoat or white one, that's as stiff as a board. and a coat that's sagging with papers and let ters, and trousers with half a ton of metal in the pockets. Or if I leave off the waistcOat I sport a belt, because suspenders are not good form. If strap the belt tight. I can't digest my breakfast, and if l don't strap it tight I might as wei hang it on a greased marble pillar and expect it won't drop. I haven't had a waist in twenty years.
 Now in so for as purposes of per sOnal adOrnmeHt are concehned I might better take that collar, dip it in warm water and tie it around my ankle. It adds nothing to my appearance; it's wet through and through in a jiffy and I can't take my mind off it from break fast to supper. If I sit down every body moves away from me for fear I I'm going to explode and spatter and so 1 pant and mop through eighteen hours of the day. Look at these hand kerchiefs. You'd think I found them in a coal hole under a leaking tank. And it's a good deal the same way in winter. A woman arrays herself for a ball as if her work was cut out for her, and she's no more than comfOrta- bly warm when it's all over. But after man has danced one dance, he looks as if I had just been fished from the river.

Things Going on Under Ground in
 Various Localities.
FINAL COUNTY.

Two strong explosions of gas are reported from the PinaI Parafine Oil cOmpanys well, situated near Kelvin. This is said to be a very encouraging indication and the officials of the company have decided to make anoth- CT sale of stock to the present stock holders with a view to raising sufIi- cient funds to put the present well down to a further depth of 1000 feet.
 GRAHAM COUNTY.
 George Lobb of Superior has just made carload shipment of copper ore from the Silver Queen mine, upon which he has a lease and bond. The work and the ore body are looking we'll and the working force is to be increased Sept. l.
 A new teaching plant is getting in its initial work at Florence and every thing is moving satisfactorily.
 The new. teaching plant at Kelvin is reported to be all right to date. and ore is being gotten in for a long run.
 The Bryan group of mines at River side has a number of men at work taking out shipping ore which will be sent to the old Val Verde smelter.
 President Sharpe of the Big Lead company, is at Kelvin completing ar engagements for the erection of a 30- ton teaching plant, the machinery for which has already been ordered. Sup erintendent w. B. Twitchen has start ed a new shaft on the company's prop erty and is uncOvering some very rich ore. This ore is a metallic suIphide. commonly called glance, and crosses the work in the shaft in numerous small veins. The intervening vein matter also runs we'll in copper and there is no question as to the future success of the property.

ROADS AND FARM VALUES
Instance of How Good Roads Incre ase Land Values

THE last Federal census of 1000 showed that
farm values had increased during the preceding
ten wears some tWcntv-SeVen per cent for the
whole nted States, only four States showing
falling off III valuations. The Census Commits
sloncr calls attention to the fact that Massachu-
sets showed an increase, whereas formerly it
had shown a decrease, and this change in values
lie attributes entirely to highway improve
mcnts in that State because farm values COM
menced to rise as roads began to be improved.
A most striking instance OF the relation be-
tween the value OF rural real estate and the con-
dlton OF the road system turns up in this State
in Talbot county. a we'll known Baltimore bust
ness man who owned a farm about three miles
from kaston, has been irving to sell out for sew
eral years. The agent would get prospective
buyers to lEaston, they would take team and
start to drive out to the farm For the first two
miles out OF Easton the road is pretty good but
Tor the last mile the road is the usual poor coun-
try road OF Maryland. As soon as they struck
the poor road it was all off so far as selling his
farm was concerned. The farm has been as
scsSed at $1,000 Tor a number OF years Al
though the owners sale price was somewhat
higher. this figure may be taken as a fair vau-
alton OF tn" property y few weeks ago the
county started to improve this mile OF poor road
under the State Md law. Although this i'm
provcment is still unfinished, perhaps hall mile
OF road being about completed. the property was
sold last week at a figure which we understand
from good authority, to have been SI7 800. The
agent i'll EastOn who effected the deal attributes
the sale and the high i'cc which the property
brought emit ely 10 good roads.
The argument that good roads increase farm
values is not new one and we have all heard it
used here in Maryland by the advocates of I'M
proved highways but it is seldom that so strill-
ing an illustration as the one Just related brings
the truth home to us. 1t is simply another in
stance OF increasing values with good roads
winch has been the common experience in Mas
sachuscts. New Jersey and all the other States
where good roads have been constructed. Such
instances as this will go long way toward con-
vlnclng our more skeptical citizens and making
them warm advocates of road Improvement.
