A fatal accident occurred at the
sampling works of the Copper Queen
smelter last week in which Carmel
Morales, a Mexican youth about
eighteen years of age, was instantly
killed by being run over by an ore
train. 1t seems that Morales
jumped upon a car which was being
switched about the works and was
moment later knocked from the car
by an electric light pole and thrown
beneath the cars. The head of the
unfortunate youth was severed from
his body, as thoush cut by the guillo
tine. His left hand was also cut off.

Otto Henkle, of Bsbee, was ex-
amined in the probate court last
week as to his sanity and was ordered
committed to the asylum, and was
taken to Phoenix by Sheriff Hunt
This is the third time that he has
been committed to the asylum from
this county and is now more violent
than previously. 1t is the opinion of
the examining board that he will be
held in the institution for quite a
period before it will be safe to re-
lease him, as his mania has begun to
assume a dangerous feature, as he
threatens to kill people and tries to
burn up property.-Prospector.

Three large engines have been

Three Men Buried at Old Dominion

Three miners employed at the Old
Dominion mine were entombed in
cave-in early Sunday last, and it was
almost three and half hours before
they we're dug out of the mass of
rock and timbers which had fallen on
them. One man, Sam Bokan, a young
Montenegran, died from internal in
iuries a few moments after he was
taken out, and another miner, Leslie
Ellsworth, is in the Old Dominion
hospital, suffering from severe but
not fatal injuries. John Comeford,
an old time miner in Globe, was the
third man buried in the cave-in, but
he escaped with comparatively slight
injuries.
The stockholders of the Greene
Copper company held their annual

elected excepting Eugene N. Foss,
who was succeeded by John H. Mar
+ tin. The annual report for the year
ending July 81 showed the net profits
to be s., 967 ,S1S, while the previous
year there were S2,SO5, 1855. The sur
plus for the year is 81, 7S5,41S, an in
crease of 1921 ,632 over the previous
year. The. par value of the Greene
stock is SO, and 1t sold in the mar
kct the day of the stockholders
meeting at $27.25 to $27.75. The
stockholders are assured of good
dividends as long as Col. Greene re-
mains in control of the company, and
he probably will control it as long as
it pays GOOD dividends.
