SETTLERS ARE COMING.
GOVERNMENT LAND IN SOUTH WEST IS RAPIDLY GAINING
 GOOD PEOPLE.
Middle States Sending Substantial Farming Element Along Eastern Branch of Southwestern, and Many Able to Pay for Ranches.

The government land between El Paso and the eastern line of New Mex ico. along the line of the Fl Paso 6 Southwestern and Rock Island, is be ing rapidly taken up by settlers from the middle states.
 The incoming farmers recognize the conditions in New Mexico to be about the same as existed in Kansas some thing more than thirty years ago, and they are seizing an opportunity to make free homes on land rapidly in creasing in value.
 The rush into that section around Tucumcari has been wonderful, and it still continues, the Rock Island hay. ing extended the settlers rates through the entire year. The number of en- tries recorded in the land office from that section has now exceeded twenty three hundred, and every train into the place from the east brings men seeking homes in a new country
 A large number of home seekers are finding their way down as far as Alamogordo, and the open land in that vicinity is being taken up very rapid ly. The majority of those finding their way to those sections a year or more ago were men with little or no capital, who located to hold until op- portunity offered to sell out for small sum. The men now coming in are able and eager to buy relinquishmentS at a fair price, and the majority of them have the money with which to improve the land and make their ven- ture successful.

AUTOMOBILE TRIP
 TO INSPECT PROPERTIES.
COL. W. c. GREENE IS BACK IN cANANEA AFTER sTRENu-
 ous TRIP TO CHIHUAHUA.

Having traversed every mile of the Greene Gold-Silyer wagon road, ex- amined a majority of the mines con trolled by the company, seen reduc- tion mills in operation and inspect ed samples of the virgin gold extract ed, directors in the Greene companies this week concluded a strenuous trip of inspection over greater part of their holdings in Chihuahua. The party returned to Fl Paso on Friday and Col. Greene departed Friday morn ing for La Cananea, where he will continue his investigations in connec- tion with the property of the Cananea Consolidated Copper Company. A number of the directors returned to Cananea with Col. Greene and the remainder returned to New York over the Rock Island Friday night.
 One of the features of the trip to the Chihuahua properties of the compa- ny was the automobile trip over the wagon road. Touring cars carried the directors to the chief points of inter- est in the district.
 Col. Greene will spend some time consulting regarding details in man. agement of the Cananea Consolidated Copper company before returning to New York.

ARIZONA COMMERCIAL
 ISSUING MORE STOCK

Stockholders Of record of May 1 are offered the right to subscribe at S25 for one new share for every eight now held. This will bring the capitaliza tion up to 90,000 shares.
 In connection with this increase of stock, the management issue a letter in which they state that the develop ments at the two shafts, the Copper Hill and the Black Hawk, are very en- couraging. These shafts are down 750 and 400 feet, respectively, and have disclosed a large amount of car bonate, oxide and sulphide ore. Three levels of the Copper Hill mine are sup plying over 100 tons of sulphide ore per day. The Black Hawk has not yet begun regular production but will be able to furnish its share in few months time.
 With the proceeds of the new stock the equipment will be increased, in cluding new boilers and additional power drills. A standard guage line of two and one-half miles will be built to connect the Black Hawk with the main line of the Gila ValNy, Globe & Northern. When this is, completed which should be within three months the management expect to begin ship, ping at once 400 to 300 tons per day

WORK OF Al EXPERT.

The investors an the mining eX- pert often have di! rent ideas about what is expected C ap expert. Re centB an investor who has on occa- siors invested monoY in mines in this section of the worlC had presented to him an investing T oposition in what was supposed to T." a good property. He engaged a min. 1g expert, one Of the best in Denver to look the prop erty oyer and repcs to him. The ex- pert made a thor@Igh examination, and his report is sri to be one of the most exhaustive ever seen in New York. It had a lo7s typewriter de scription of the pTrDerty, page after mage of the results cE the assays of the ores in the property. fine maps of the property. both topce aphical and geo logical. and everythiTT else that an ex- pert could give to shoy what the prop erty was. The wh )le was nicely bound in limp leath, r. and the name gf the investor appeG red on the front cover in letters of gc,d. The investor examined it careful, and the more he read it the less hc knew about it. Finally he bundled t'ie book up, sent 1t hack to the expert and wrote him about as follows:
 "The book is very fine, but what want to know is if I invest ill this will I have a run for my money%

about S5.O0O ,Oe0 to 90,0OO,UO9 lounds of copper.
 The ore mined by the Calumet X Arizona is of unusually high grade. Since operations began it has yielded from ' per cent to 9 per cent fine cop per with small metal values. Its average yield in 194 was IA pounds of copper to the ton, and in i95, 1E9 pounds to the ton. The earnings last year amounted to about Sll.SS per share, with the average price received for it's copper 14.93 cents per pound.
 Since the beginning of this year the Calumet & Arizona has been doing very much better than ever previously.
 I understand that during the month of February it's ore yielded an average of 10 per cent, or 200 pounds of cop per to the ton, and that the cost of this copper, refined and sold, will. be less than 3-4 cents per pound. As the company is now producing at Jne Tate of 35,000,000 pounds of copper annually, it must therefore, be earning nearly S20 per share on its stock.
 The only question that can possibly be raised concerning the investment value of Calumet & Arizona stock is that of a continuance of high grade ere supply. If present production and earnings can be maintained for only eight to ten years, the purchaser of the stock at this price will be abundant ly reimbursed. So far as I know at present there is no good reason for doubt that the mine has ore enough in its property to continue the current volume of production for ? generation.
 Arizona Commercial.
 Arizona Commercial will sell 10000 sl ares of its treasury stock to stock holders at S25 per share. As there are so 600 shares now outstanding, the holder of 100 shares will be entitled 10 su bscribe for F 1-2 new shares. The issue has been underwritten at par without commission.
 It is the intention of the manage ment to use the S25.000 secured by the sale of new stock to provide new equipment, extend a railroad to its n inc and largely increase underground development and exploratory work. The miae gives promise Of becoming ar other Old Dominion in extent and value If it had railroad facilities al lHS present. lill1C IL nOuhu bC hSAN ~ ship 400 to 500 tons of ore daily and show substantial net earnings on it's stock.
 A conference was held recently be tween Arizona Commercial directors al Thos. F. Cole and associates look irg towards a consolidation with a company to be formed by the latter. wko have purchased and bonded all the outlying claims surrounding the Cid Dominion, United Globe and Ari- zcna Commercial properties. l under stand that no trade will be made until development work more fully demon strates the value of both properties.
 Greene Consolidated
 5 Greene Consolidated secured an av' craze price of 1858 cents per pound for 5.1G5,000 pounds of copper which iE sold during March. Its new rever- beratorv furnace is now being blown in and its output will probably show a slight gain in April and a much larger increase in May. Greene stock, is acting well. It should be bought or this setback

NoFTH BUTTE HAS
 MADE BEST SHOWING

We have not yet received the annual report Iit the figures as presented at the annual meeting are at hand, and though we cannot vouch for them they are doubtless approximately cor rect.
 The results are even better than were anticipated. The company pre- duced no less than 30,954,7SS pounds of copper, which it sold at an average price of 16.47 cents pound. The cost seems to have been a fraction over { cents a pound, leaving net earnings of $2,720,670, equivalent to $6.S0 per share.
 The balance sheet reveals the con servative policy of the management In one year there was accumulated surplus of S1,703. .930. of which $717, z5S remained in the treasury as cash on hand-this after the payment. O dividends amounting to s2.50 pc share. Against this large cash r, serve, there were bills outstanding O, only $50,000.
 At the close of the year the mine was supplying 300 tons per day, which has since been increased to 1000 tons The new equipment will bring this up to f,500 tons daily, and it is stated that there are sufficient reserves of ore blocked out to supply this amount for from four to five years.

A LAME LAW.

The Phoenix Gazette says: What has every appearance Of a rank mfs- carriage of justice was enacted when man who is alleged to have raped a six-year-old girl was this morning given his liberty because this mere baby was unable to tell the court the difference between the truth and lie. The Gazette does not mean to say that the court or the attorneys erred in their interpretation of the law, but it does mean to say, and that in the strongest possible language, that law that will allow of such an interpretation is bad to the core and should be so changed as to afford some semblance of protection to the innocent babies of the territory"

GENERAL MARKET
 HAS GOOD TONE,

The Boston Stock Market has shown that mere people are interested especially in the coper situation.
 North Butte showed the greatest ad- vance and buying continues to be by people who are best posted as to its value.
 Butte Coalition finds a very ready market around present prices, S36, and we find that considerable stock is be- ing taken out of the market by peo- pie who have recently looked into the proposition, and are confident that the company has great possibilities and it's property will undergo active development from now on. Like North Butte. it has great deal of un- developed ground, and with MT. A. c. Carson at the head of the mining op- erations, results can be speedily looked for.
 Lake Superior stocks such as Cop per Range and Oscveola, while show ing handsome earnings. are not at tracting the attention in the stock market that we feel due them, but we look forward to seeing both stocks sell higher if metal conditions con tinue as at present
 In the case of Cooper Range the de velcpments at the Globe property are of the utmost importance, and the opening up Of the experiencing lode at the Giobeproperty would be fol lowed by a very quick advance in the Copper Range stock.

CALUMET 6 ARIZONA
 IS AT LAST LISTED

Calumet & Arizona has at last been listed on the Boston Exchange. h. anticipation of this the stock has beerz gradually creeping upwards, and ha& recovered nearly all the loss it suf8 tained when some two or three week2z ago there were reports of hitch ir4 the listing proceedings.
 The balance sheet of December 31. 1905, which includes simply the cur-. rreHHt-aSsets and liabilities, shows a surplus in the lorm of net quick assets of s2,438,2 ,261.
 The development work oN-l905 amounted to 21,737 feet Of this 1S,7f5 feet consisted of drifts, 13,S19 feet of which were in the Senators, Buckeye, Pride and Gibraltar claims. This opened up large amount of ore trib- utary to the Oliver shaft, which, while not so rich as the ore in the Mag claim, is still of excellent quality.
 The Oliver shaft should soon be able to supply considerable percentage of the production, thereby relieving the Mag shaft of the strain to which it has been subjected. The March out put was 3936,000 pounds, an increase of l,244,O 900 pounds over March, 1905. For the first thEee months of 1906 the production was 12,7SS,0O pounds against 7,80S, ,000 in the corresponding period of the previous year. This, however, is hardly Q fair comparison, as the 1906 figures include the Lake Superior & PittsSurg ard Pittsburg & Duluth output.

THE FL TlGRE.

F. o. Mullen, cashier of the Fl Tigre company, was in Douglas this week and also visited Bisbee. MT. Mullen stated that work at the Fl Tigre mine was progressing in a satisfactory man ner. The mill is turning ouc concen- trates of good value which, together with the high grade shipping ore, is being forwarded to the smelter at Fl Paso. Considerably more than one hundred men are now on the Fl Tigre pay roll, and it is expected that in the near future this force will be ma terialIy increased.

This exhibit surpasses even that of the Calumet Arizona, which up to the present time has held the record Tor quick results. That company produced in it's first fiscal year less than 25.' 000, 900 pounds, and did not pay a diyi' dend until it had been producing for more than a year. It Is hardly sur prising that the holders of North Butte are bullish even after rise of s75 in the price of the stock.

MINING MAN IS
 COMING FROM EAST.
WILL BRING s2o,ooo FOR DEvEL oPMENT OF RICH PROPER
 TY IN SONORA.

DOUGLAS, April 2S.-(SpeciaI.)- )-
 George E. Hemphill, the partner of c. A. Taylor and Justice w. C. Mcdonald. will arrive today or to morrow from Pittsburg with $20,O0O of eastern money for the development of the rich property which these three gentlemen own in the Cumpas coun, try. They are eighteen miles south and little west of Nacozari, and they propose to begin shipments of ore to the smelter at Cumpas at once. The Transvaal people are glad to handle the ore for them. They have an abun- dance of ore which runs from 250 to 2000 ounces in silver and ten per cent copper, and they believe they will soon have a great producer. From the day the first development work is done they will begin shipping to the smell ter They will either use wagons or pack it out on burros.
 This is the property which John Roach was on, and which Hemphill, Taylor and Mcdonald were at much trouble to reclaim, after a bitter con- troversy. The government finally wired the judges at Cumpas to give the three Americans the relief prayed for at once. Roach then suggested to Hemphill that each of them take a civ il engineer to the premises, and that if the line these men should run showed him to be on their property he would voluntarily remove. Before the line was half completed. Roach said: Gentlemen, I see 1 am in the wrong. Come down to my ranch and get your ore" They recovered several tons of ore in that way.
 Another outfit of Texas mules has been received by Broker G. A. An drews and he will send the consign- ment of stock to the Transvaal people at Cumpas at once. The mules are at Agua Prieta today. They are wanted to haul ore from the company's mines to the Cumpas smelter. which has been in operation about four days. The mines are fifteen, eighteen and twen- ty-fiye miles from Cumpas. The road is bad and only one-way trips may be made each day.
 William Hammond was here this week from the western slope of the Chiricahuas. He has been engaged in assessment work in that locality. He says that the development work in that locality is very shy and the min ing outlook is rather light, though many promising prospects exist. MT, Hammond is an old timer at the bus mess and a professional miner.

EUROPEAN SENSATIONS.
Are With the Great FOrepaugh-Sells
Circus Coming Soon.

The great Adam Forepaugh and
Sells Brothers Circus with the newly
added fire show spectacle Fighting
the Flames" will exhibit here We'd
nesday, August %.
This circus has always enjoyed the
confidence of the public, because ev-
erything new. sensational and ex-
elusive that circus invention pro-
duced the world over was always to
be found in the enormous program
offered. This year the enormous
circus has been added to in size of
the tents, number of people en-
ployed, horses used, animals col
lected and in many other ways un-
til it looks as If the limit of human
endeavor had been achieved. The
hippodrome tent is the largest ever
made, and will comfortably accom-
modate 10000 people. The menag-
erie annex is almost as big, and shell
ters more than 100 cages, dens and
lairs of the rarest wild animals. This
department of the big shows is singu-
larly impressive, because 1t exhibits
not only more rarely seen wild crea-
lures, but many OF these specimens
are to be found nowhere else in cap
tivity. A fierce bi--horned rhinocer-
os, the rarest and most expensive of
all wild beasts, is in this collection,
as are two great fanlike cared ele-
plants of African origin, blood
eXuding hippopotamus, three herds
of elephants, full-grown and symmet-
rical types, and a nursery of baby
wild animals, like kitten tigers, cub
lions, quantity hopping kangaroos,
seals, light-eyed leop-
ards, homely hyenas and so on. All
of the artists, or nearly so, in the big
arena program are fresh faces to the
circus patron of this country, and
make their first appearance to WOO
American laurels under the aus
pices of the great Adam Forepaugh
ond Sells Brothers management.
One thousand people are employed,
one way and another, and 100 acts
most of them new features, are in the
huge program.
Reserved seat tickeds and admis-
sion tickets will be sold at the down
own ticket Office of Forepaugh-Sells
Brothers show day.
