carefuIness Against Fake Mining.

Many times an editor would like to print just what he thinks of certain mine operators and their properties, but is restrained from doing so for the reason that the property may be good, even if the management is poor, and if it should be ruthlessly criticised the owner of the property would have a just grievance against the editor for bringing his property into disrepute in the public mind, says an Arizona exchange. Hence it pays the investor to look well to his investment before putting his money into any proposition. If a person approaches you with the statement that his property will be on a paying basis in a certain time, find out first how many times that party has made a success of mining enter prises. Find out what chance he has of making a success of this enterprise. He may be a very cheap sort of faker who has been a colossal failure in every other undertaking which he has preached. If he has been a success in all his undertakings or some of them at least and is known to be responsible and reliable, then you can safely try a whirl at his schemes. Another thing is always well to find out and that is whether the promoter is a man who pays his debts, or whether he runs his face and really makes any effort to re- deem his pledges. There are a num- Der of people operating on properties which might have been all right ii they were in the hands of honest peo. pie, but which cannot but fail whe1 handled by dishonest and unreliable people. The time is drawing to hand when everyone will have to stand uI for honor and honesty in his line o business or be doomed to failure. The faker must go.

Sieber Helped to Corner Indians.

No man in Arizona is better able to tell the story, with all its wealth of detail, of the manner in which Cap tain Burns command exterminated the POO Apache Indians, whose skeletons were found on Fish Creek last Sunday by Jeff Adams and Ivy Crabtree, than Al Sieber, who is now employed at Roosevelt.
 In the early days Sieber was a fa- nous Arizona scout. Times almost without number he trailed to punish ment small bands of marauding h. dians, whose deeds of murder, rapine and pillage made this territory the scene for many bloody crimes.
 Several in Phenix have today re- called stories told them by Sieber re- garding the trapping of the Indians on Fish Creek, after they had been on an unusually severe raid, and their slaughter without mercy. His story of the provocation given by the h. dians iustifies the drastic action taken by the soldiers. Mike Burns, who guided Captain Burns command to the cave in which the Indians were in hid ing knows the whole story, part of which he remembers from boyhood and the rest from what was told him by Indians and soldiers. Burns is per haps the best educated Indian in Ari- zona today. At Mayer, Yavapai coun- ty, he is looked upon as a better citi- zen than large number of white men. Though he can distinctly remember all that took place, Burns like a num- Der of others in recent years has searched for the cave in which lie the bones of his father, mother and part of his ancestors, but has never been able to find it.
 Jeff Adams while he was in Phenix yesterday arranged with several PeO- ple to in the near future pilot them to the cave that more may be learned about the ghastly sepulchre. Among those anxious to make an early trip to the cave are Postmaster McClintOck. Adams in speaking of his discovery yesterday stated that only those who see it for themselves can realize the awfulness of the thing. Since 1872 the skeletons have been lying there un' found. The manner in which some ot the bones are scattered indicate that wild animals ate their fill.-PheniS Enterprise.

Locked in the Vault.

Practical jokers who lock people up in steel vaults should think twice be- fore they perpetrate their fun. The other day Deputy Treasury F. s. Wid- ney, in Tucson, was locked in the treasurer's vault by a friend who closed the door on him, not knowing it locked with a spring. The door could only be opened with the combi- nation and the treasurer who was i'm mediately hunted up had misplaced his combination sheet. It took two or three hours to find it and figure out a combination that would open the big door, restoring Mr. Widney to liberty. In the meantime there was consider erable anxiety on the part of all con- cerned for the air in the small apart ment was beginning to taste like sec ond hand goods to Mir. Widney who was also beginning to fear that the men on the outside would be unable to find the combination.-PheniX Repub- lican.

37.ooo.ooos for Reclamation.

F. H. Newell, chief engineer of the United States reclamation service, who is on a tour of inspection of the gov ernment works throughout the west, returned yesterday from an inspection of the works now under construction on the Colorado river near Yuma.
 Mir. Newell says that 37,OOO,OOOS is being expended by the government in thirteen western states and three ter ritories; that 1,OOO,OOO acres are to be reclaimed and that the work in hand will furnish homes for 250,0 people.
 ''The object of the government is to make homes," said Mir. Newell last night. ''The government is making a big experiment, whereby communities may be built up and strengthened. We have surveys, let contracts, and in the meantime have started to organize water users associations composed of settlers, who intend ultimately to own and operate their own irrigation sys- tenn.
 ''The great problem is to colonize the lands with the best class of people; men who are able and willing to work and who are ambitious to build homes. The present movement should be clearly understood. l am sure Mir. Hearst. as a member of the irrigation committee in congress, will use every energy in advancing the objects of the great work.
 ''The dam near Yuma will not be finished for another year in all proba- bility," said Mir. Newell. 1.-The dam is one mile long, with two canals, one opening into Arizona, the other into California. About 100000 acres will be reclaimed. The work is progress inv satisfactorily. Date palms are be- ing planted along the river on both sides. The land to be reclaimed will be suited for cotton, alfalfa, Egyptian corn, oranges, lemons, grape fruit and olives. The conditions are similar to those along the Nile.
 "Another project well under way is the Roosevelt dam on Salt River, rep resenting an expenditure of about 4,- 900. .OOOS. Over 100000 acres will be reclaimed. A road from Phenix to Roosevelt has just been completed, forty-three miles of the road being mountainous. It will be three or four years before the works at Roosevelt will be completed. The works are comparable to the Egyptian pyramids.
 ''In each state or territory the work is either outlined or about third fin ished. Some of the more western pro- iects are the Klamath for Oregon and California;; Truckee-Carson, Straw berry, in Nevada and Utah; Gunnison tunnel in Colorado and Rio Grande in New Mexico. Los Angeles Examiner.

Half ton of dynamite exploded at the Laguna dam, Yuma county, Jan. 3l. A hole twenty feet deep was blown in the ground. All windows were shattered and the shock was like that of an earthquake. There were no fatalities. Four persons were slight ly cut by flying glass. A brush-heap near the dynamite warehouse caught fire from sparks from passing engine and caused the explosion.
