PAWNBROKER IS IN TOLLS or
 THE LAW.

x. Friedman, the Washington street pawnbroker, nearly got into Serious trouble yesterday by holding his peace. Several months ago Miss Rosa Lcary. living on North Third street, had q watch stolen and as II was very highly valued by her on account of it's being gift from an uncle, she never ceased looking for it. She was well fortified with data for its identification, such as the number of the ease, the number of the works and various other specifica- tions and particulars in which it diff fered from any other watch anywhere in the wide world.
 Day before yesterday she saw the watch nt Friedman g, and laid claim to it. The pawnbroker said that he had bought it of a man by the name of Wood, and had paid sG.50 for it. He would let it go for that much and not cent less. Miss Leary naturally felt that she had right to it for nothing, but the pawnbroker told her that that was cheap in comparison with any other plan by which she might be brought into possession of it. For instance, she might recover if by the process of re- plevin, but she would have to pay n lawyer not less than s25 at the outset. Miss Leary does not know much about the law, but common sense told her that there must be a cheaper way than that she went to Justice John. stone to get judicial confirmation of her belief The justice sent an officer 10 see about it, but the watch was gone. A search warrant was issned and in the absence of the visible watch the of. fcer took possession of MT. Friedman and found the watch in his pocket. IL ia now in the possession of the authori' ties and its identity will be determined today. The officer wanted a warrant for the arrest of Friedman on the rather serious charge of interfering with an officer in the discharge of his duties.

 "Thst one of the greatest gold mines in the Territory is in our district will be proven as soon as the large stamp mill is in running order on the prop. critics of the Interior Mining and Trust company, better known as the Big |O'Bricn.' The installation of the plant is being pushed as fast as men and money can do it, and barring disap. pointmcnts in the delivery of some of the machinery at the railroad station at Wickesburg, the management ex' poets to have it in operation in about 6O days
 "Anothcr valuable gold property be. ing developed, which is showing well is that of the Hale Mining and Milling company, and coming to copper proposi tions, inc Arizona Copper Belt Mining company is deserving of especial men tion on account of its high grade ores cisid tons of which was recently solo to tbc Arizona Smelting company whici gave returns of &63.75 to the ton. Thi' company owns a g,oup of eight claims
 fcm of which are promising copPcI
 mines and four showing well in gold.
 "The Eagle Copper company, witl
 Dr- Perrin of Denver as general man

 large scale, the necessary finances hay
