Stevens Copper Company, reports that he is again ready to commence ship ping ore from the company's mines. a Dick Lakenan, who owns a group of rich gold and silver mines at Gold Gulch, near Morenci, spent a few days in Clifton this week. Dick has shipped ore from his claims that went us high as 5000 per ton.
 W. J. Palmer, the new president of the shannon Copper Company, ar rived Sunday last to familiarize him self with conditions at the mines and the plant, and with the company's affairs in general. He has been quite busy since his arrival. It is learned that he is well pleased with the splendid manner in which the com pany's property is being managed.
 Superintendent Stevens of the Chase Creek Copper Company this week brought down samples of chal- copyrites. which is now coming into the big tunnel, which has been driv- en into the mountain more than 1900 iZed ground, and MT. Stevens expects to soon strike the new lead for which the tunnel is being driven.
 U. G. Wolfe, of the Independent assay office, is home from Hachita, where he spent several days on min. ing business. He reports that the Copper Dick is now shipping a car of ore per day to the Douglas smelter. Ore is also being shipped from the Apache mines to Douglas. The min ing section around Hachita is rather quiet at the present time, though there would seem to be many prop critics in that section that ought to be regular shippers.
 The Shannon converting plant started up Friday morning last and has been running steadily since then, with an average output of about twen. ty tons of Bessemerized copper. This new industry by the Shannon com. pany is another long stride by the management towards the permanent success of the company. It is also a matter of some importance locally, as it means an increased pay roll for the company. The Shannon can now be considered as a full-fedged min ing company, as it now manufactures its output, and is on a solid and pay ing basis.

To Study Ancient Armor.
the New York Herald.

From the New York Herald.
 That a European expert should come to the United States to see collections of an- cient armor will sound somewhat odd to American ears, but this is just the reason why the keeper of King Edward S armory, who arrived Tuesday on the Kaiser Will helm II. of the North German Lloyd line, is visiting this country, as he explained Tuesday.
 MT Guy Laking, who is the eldest son of Sir Francis Laliing, surgeon to King Edward, besides being in charge of the famous collection of armor at Windsor castle. is also keeper of the armory at the Wallace collection. He is slightly more than 30 years old, and is well known as an art critic. It Is said that he is also adviser to King Edward on matters con nected with art.
 MT. Laking was met at the pier by Mr Clarence Mackay, an old friend. whose guest he will be while in New York city.
 Your Metropolitan Museum has, or soon will have, with the Due de Dino col lection, the finest assemblage of old ar nor in the world" said MT Laking and l am anxious to see that, as well as sey- eral other fine collections in this country
 It was said Tuesday by an acquaintance of MT. Laking5 that the latter was de- sirous of seeing among others the fine col lection which MT. George Gould has at Georgian court, and that of Mir. G. Moro sini

MA-ere Marriage Pays.

married people have the best Of It
IN ocean travelling" said sea captain,
"for they have stateroom to them
selves. People travelling alone, unless
they are willing to pay good deal ex-
ira, have to sleep in the same room
with strangers, an unpleasant thing.
''Some of these lone travellers, to Sc
cure privacy, pay extra fare. Others
many, many others-try to secure pri-
vacy by giving us lies instead Of
money.
Zone man will tell the chief steward
that he has an intolerable snore An
other will say he is subject to epileptic
attacks, wherein in the small hours he
becomes shrieking and dangerous
maniac Another will say that in the

Origin of Bonfires.

Bonf1res are survival of the rites
of Baal and Moloch. When Christian
ity ruled old ways and customs could
be abolished, and so the heather, still
hankering after the ancient deities, but
half controlled by pope or bishop, made
their bonfires on the eve of st. Peter
or st. John. One use Of bonfires in the
not so far distant past was as means
Of disinfection. In his History of the
Plague" Defoe tells Of bonfres in Lon
don streets. There is reason to suppose
that in kindling such fires there was
still remnant Of superstition left. It
was In measure a sacrifice to Baal
AS to the excellence of the method CT
making fires to drive away plague
the benefit would be questionable.
Anyhow it may be dwelt upon as the
earliest effort made toward cremation,
for it was of some slight use when an
infected neighborhood caught fire and
was reduced to ashes. But, then, the
remedy might have been worse than
the disease.

KEEP THE KIDNEYS WELL.
Health is Worth Saving, aud Souae
Leon People Know How to
Save it.

Many Leon people take their lives
ia their hands by neglecting the
Kidneys when they know these organs
need help. Sick kidneys are response
BILE for vast amount of suffering and
i'll health but there is no need to suffer
nor TO remain in danger when all dis
ease and aches and pains due to weak
kidneys cam be quickly and permanent
ly cured by the use of Doans Kidney
Pills. Here is a statement of a Leon
citizen who has reclaimed good health
by the use of this remedy:
Miles Mad,tindale, living in the south
west part of Leon says: "Last winter
l came home from days work and was
taken with chills and fever, since then
my kidneys have bothered me. The
secretions from those organs contained
a sediment, were full of acids, scalded,
pain existed in the loins and kidneys
during the day if stopped sharp twin
ges were my reward and at night was
unable to straighten if even sat still
in chair for short time. l tried
everything which came to my notice in
the shape of medicine, but really think
l was growing worse instead Of better.
Finally deciding to try Doan's Kidney
Pills went to L. P. Van Werden's drug
store for box. They brought better
results than any other medicine l ever
tried. They stopped the backache and
corrected the action of the kidney
secretions. l consider this remedy a
valuable one."

Measure Your Friends.

"Did you ever amuse yourself" asks
the London Gentlewoman, ION a wet
Sunday afternoon by giving marks Of
appreciation or the reverse to all your
friends and acquaintances? This is the
method we employ: There are five
heads-N looks; (2) manners; g. abili-
ties; a. merit and 90 'use-and this
fifth item often balances all the rest,
for person may quite likely possess
nearly full marks for looks, manners,
abilities and merit and yet be Of no
possible use to oneself while, vice
versa, some person may be of great
use, one may fancy their company, or
they may have knack Of sympathy,
yet be very deficient in manners or
merit. The marks range from 0 to 20,
and if you are quite conscientious in
awarding your marks you will be sur
prised to find how the law Of averages
comes in and how much the sum total
Of one individuals marks resembles an
Other'

Marriage In Korea

There is not much difficulty in marry
ing off daughter in Korea. Where
there are defects, such as feeble health,
paralysis. deformities, etc, an expert
intermediary who knows how to con-
ceal them is employed. 1t is her bust
ness to make the girl presentable to the
parents Of the sutton. AS the bride
groom does not see the bride until the
day Of marriage, when it Is too late to
recoil, he is obliged to make the best Of
the situation. In marrying Korean
girls are not exempt from contributing
to the support Of the family. This ap-
plies to the grande dame as well as the
humblest peasant. Ladies of rank who
have become Impoverished and are
obliged to support themselves may earn
livelihood by knitting or rearing silk
worms

Iowa CITY is to entertain the Knieht

Iowa City is to entertain the knights
of Pythias of Iowa early in August.
Some five thousand members of the or
der are expected, making it one of the
largest gatherings of the members of
the order held in the state in recent
years. Twenty-Five or thirty years ago,
the knights of Pythias was one of the
strongest fraternal organizations in
Iowa. Then the state was virtually
flooded with new organizations, many of
which have excellent features, and some
of which seem to have encroached upon
the membership of the Knights. But in
recent years the X. P. has evidently
taken new grip upon the situation and
has again forged to the front in magnifi-
cent style. There is a strong rivalry
between fraternal societies in Iowa,
which upon the whole seems to result
in much good, and of course no really
good organization can be permanently
injured by competition.

Hot Weather and Storms.

Hicks, the st. Louis weather prophet
makes the following predictions for the
balance of July:
"a reactionary storm period is cen
trail on the 10th, II tn and 18th the
crisis of this period will fall on and
touching Thursday the 18th. On this
date the Moon crosses the celestial
equator, coming northward. This fact
will add to the probabilities of very
high temperature, low barometer and
thunder storms on and next to the 18th.
The Venus period extends up to about
10Th, so that the extremes from summer
heat to sudden cool are liable to char
acterize the storms and weather
changes at all July storm periods up to
that time.
A regular storm period covers the
10Th to the 10Th, central on the 18th.
Notwithstanding anybody can safely
predict that it will be warm in July,
we predict that it will be warmer at
some times than others and that this
period the 10Th to 10Th will lead up to
one of July's warmest periods. More
thunder storms and local cloudbursts
are probable about the 18th to 10Th. A
Venus revulsion to very cool might be
normally expected Immediately after
these thunder storms, but for the fact
that the new moon, at solar eclipse
node, falls on the 21st. This fact calls
for the prolonged high temperature, low
barometer and threatening ifnot stormy
conditions, over the 21st and into the
next storm period.
A reactionary storm period is central
on the 22nd and 23rd, in which storms
and seismic disturbances will be report
ed from wide extremes of the globe.
Within sixty hours of 600 o'clock p. m.
on the 21st, earthquake and volcanic
perturbations will reach maximum
tendency in most countries common to
to them. Change to rising barometer
and some cooler will follow these reac-
tionary disturbances for two or three
days-say from the 23rd to 18th pro-
gressively from west to east.
"a regular storm period runs from
the 26th to the both, being central on
the 2sth. All who have properly
studied our theory and forecasts have
satisfied themselves of the fact that
high temperatures and tendency to
electric storms are common on and
touching days when the moon is passing
over the celestial equator. Hence as
early as the 10Th, the last storm period
in July, will show decided indication of
approaching summer storms.
