Jefferson this week, is nothing more than
a living picture show. The creations
which appear each Sunday in the New
York American from the pen of r. +.
Outcault, the artist, are given life and
action. The paper pictures are enlarged
and vitalized into reality. Master Ga
brel, the toy comedian, handles the part
of Buster Brown as though the draw
ings were made from sittings by him. He
looks and acts the part with the greatest
fidelity. He does not make the part
tough character" as some might sup
pose, judging by other cartoon comedies.
This would be foreign to his nature, for
he is naturally a well-bred and exceed
ingly cultured man. He interprets the
part as meaning a healthy. mischiovous,
spoiled child; good hearted withal but
with will and mind of his own. He
often takes counsel of Tige. his faithful
chine follower. regarding the concoct-
ing of plots and when they hit upon
one that is sure to take, they chuckle
conta giously over it to the amusement
of all who are ''on3 to the fun-namely
the audience.
The whole Brown famlly-grandma,
papa. mama, Aunt Susie. the governess.
the cook and all who go to make up
the comIcal cartocns-are there to tho
life and all well taken.
Buster Brown was here last october.

In the carly part OF the last century
there lived in an old New England town

earthly life was bereft Of four wives. all
of whom were buried in the same lot In

process the bones became hopelessly

PLAYHOUSE GOSSIP.

The isle of Santo Domingo-that tropical
land of sunshine and romance-is an ideal
spot, from the comic opera authors point
of view. and Henry NJ. Blossom, Jr., APP
pears to have made wise choice in Sc
lecting it, as the locale of the new comic
opera, THE Yankee Consul
The play, which is a satire on political
life In that miniature Kingdom tells tale
of love and politics in Puerta Plata. The
American consul, a wealthy Spanish
donna, possessed of a half million dollars
and incidentally charming daughter and
demure niece, pompous Spanish gov
crnor, an American lieutenant, and a well
meaning German secretary are among the
characters involved. Harry Short has
the leading comedy role. and Miss Vera
Mieheena has the role of Bonita"
which gives her many opportunities. Man
ager John p. Slocum, who is directing the
tourase of this successful Offering has
engaged a company including Alice Hos

bees for thirty days, Chas. E. Finch extracted 4,2OO pounds of pure alfalfa honey. This is only an average crop of the sweet fluid.
 Peter Anderson last week threshed S37 sacks of wheat from forty acres of ground. Each sack weighed 159 pounds. The yield averages a fraction under fifty-two bushels per acre.
 The Stafford schools will employ five teachers for the coming year. There will be ninth grade and possibly tenth grade work, and special work will be given students wishing instruction in high school subjects.
 A letter from Miss Anna Hord, dated at Los Angeles, contains the gratify- ing announcement that she will be a teacher in the public schools of Globe this year. Miss Hord's many friends will be pleased to know that she is greatly enjoying her visit to the coast.
 Mir. and Mrs. Frank Ringgold were in Clifton this week arranging to move to Globe, where Mir. Ringgold has re- gently been made superintendent of the Pinal Mountain Water company. For years Mir. Ringgold was assistant superintendent of the Clifton Water company.
 The wire fencing on the Fort Grant military reservation will be removed and used on the Mount Graham forest reserve for hog fencing, and the old government telegraph wire from Grant to San Carlos will be taken down and used for telephone line connecting the forest supervisors office with the different sawmlls on the reserve. Verify, the wild, fighting days of Ari- zona are fading into the dim and dis tant past.
 It is thought that the tax rate this year should be about S2.50 on the Sl0O. This rate, it is estimated, will provide sufficient revenue to meet the county's expenses and allow for some needed improvements, such as bridge and road work, etc. Graham county will likely have the lowest tax rate in the terri tory-one of the biggest advertise ments for the county that could be ob- tained. Nothing appeals with such force to the prospective investor as does a low tax rate. Graham county should begin to feel the effects of this reduction by renewed activity in realty and mining interests.

CLIFTON COPPER CAMP
Weekly Grist of News From the Hopper
 of the Copper Era

Henry Hill returned this week from Globe, where he spent few days re- gently. He reports a large colony of Clifton people in that section who seem to be doing well. He states that the town is enjoying a tremendous boom, and is ambitious to become the leading city of the territory.
 The residence of George Tyler, locat- ed on Hills addition, was consumed by fire about o'clock this morning. Mrs. Tyler was visiting friends at Douglas, and MT. Tyler was attending the ball when the fire occurred. Insurance to the amount of 5000 was carried on the building and its contents in company represented locally by J. R. Hampton.
 Hon. B. B. Adams, one of Graham county's best and most highly respected citizens, left for Solomonville last week, from which place he will convey his family to Los Angeles, where they will reside in the future, that the chil- dren may have school advantages which they cannot receive in Solomon vile. MT. Adams will still make his home in this country, where he has re- sided for twenty-five years.
 Tim Nardelli, who has the contract for the construction of the big tunnel for the Coronado railroad near the Rock house, visited Clifton this week in search of miners. who are very scarce in the district. Notwithstand- ing the fact that he is short of help he is averaging about three feet per day in the tunnel, which is breaking ground pretty fast.

CONCENTRATES
(Mining and Scientific Press)

The secretary of the interior, in September 1899, decided that patent may issue covering both quartz and placer claim, this decision reversing that previously made by United States Land Commissioner Best.
 Copper ore occurring in schist or in eruptive rocks usually concentrates readily by ordinary wet methods, but the value of the concentrate depends upon the original character of the ore. Thus, bornite contains higher per centage of copper than chalcopyrite. The amount of iron sulphide present also has direct influence on the grade of concentrate as we'll as the perfec- tion of concentration.
 The stock of any corporation organ ized under the laws of California is assessable, no matter what promises or explanations are made by promoters. Mining and other corporations organ ized under the laws of other states and doing business in California are sub ject to the laws of this state.
 Many do not know that some of the great copper mines of Bingham, Utah, were, at one time, lead-silver produc- CTS, the copper ore coming in at a greater depth. At the junction of the Galena and Jordan veins, in the early history of that camp, over 100000 tons of lead-slver ore were mined, produc- ing $2,OOO, ,OOO.
 Where the owner of mining claim allows another to operate his property under bond. and the owner places notice on the claim, stating that neith- CT he nor tie property will be respon- sible for the debts contracted by the operator, no labor liens or attachments can be legally placed on the property.
 The United States geological survey announces that during 1905 there were produced in the United States 35, ,246,- SIP barrels of cement, valued at S33,- 245,S6 The use of cement is con- stantly increasing, and the material from which it may be made is abund- ant in certain localities. Excellent cement has been made from calcareous travertine as well as from pure lime stone mixed with the proper amount of clay.
 Large smelling furnaces can oviously be operated more cheaply than small ones. What the limit in the size of a blast-furnace is, has never been de- termined. Formerly a furnace AS inches long and 36 inches wide was considered large. Gradually the size was increased until cupalos were built Is feet long. Within the past year this length has been increased and a furnace now in construction will be over 90 feet long. Possibly this will not be the limit of length, if this huge furnace proves a success.

Colorado River Flood

The Colorado river at Needles last week was the highest ever known since since the white man first settled on its banks. It is expected that hundreds of feet of the banks of the Needles side will be swept away when the stream begins falling. Many of the Indian huts along the flats near the river have been destroyed. The great flood now rushing into the Salton Sea is doing great damage. several of the towns being inundated and thousands of acres of crops being des troyed. = Mohave County Miner.
