Copper Queen Gets Mineral Rights to Johnson Addition
 and Rio Tinto.
BIG THING FOR NORTH
 SIDE OF MULE GULCh.
General Manager Douglas Says
 Company Bought Because of
 Mineral Possibilities, But - May Not Develop for Years.

Of vast importance to the mining Industry is deal that was closed a few days ago, whereby the Copper Queen Consolidated Mining Company comes into possession of the mineral rights to the ground underlying the two claims covered by the Johnson ad- dition and one-third of claim known as the Rio Tinto, all of which lie on the north side of Mule gulch.
 After negotiations, which had been going on for some time, the deal is said to have been closed last Saturday, J. M. Johnson selling the rights to two of the claims and s. w. Dobson those of the Rio Tinto. In neither de2l has the consideration been made public.
 All that now remains to the transfer of the property from the old owner 5 to the new is the completion of cer- tain deeds and papers that 1t is sup posed will be ready to turn over with in the next few days. It is said that the greater part of the purchase price has been paid over.
 Asked last night if the Copper Queen Company plans immediate develop ment of its holdings. General Manager Walter Douglas stated that it might be several years before ore will be taken from the claims. The Sacramento shaft, half mile away, is the nearest working of the company to it's new holdings.
 MT. Douglas stated that the company has made the purchase because ol the ore possibilities, and expects to event ually be taking ore from the ground il has recently bought. Asked if the consideration could be made public, he stated that the company was keep ing that to itself.
 The mineral rights sold by Johnson are well known, because of the large and prosperous addition, named after the owner of the ground. that has grown on the surface in the past few months. The Rio Tinto fraction ad- joins the Johnson addition, and is partly covered with houses.
 By purchasing this ground, the Cop per Queen Company has destroyed long standing local tradition that no ore bodies were to be found on the north side of Mule gulch. It has long been contended that when this pan of the world was formed the ore stopped abruptly when it came to the gulch and all remained on the south side.
 Dozen of claims that lie on the north side of the canyon are now expected to take a decided advance. This is especially true of several companies that have been organized to exploit claims that lie either in the bottom of the lower end of the canyon or to- tally on the north side of the gulch.

Arrival of BohnStadt Brings Joy to Those Interested in
 Baseball.
NEW TWiRlER IS
 SAID TO HAVE GOODS.
Games Arranged With Doug
 las, Cananea, Huachuca and - Cananea on Coming Four
 SundayS-TWo at Home.

The baseball fans are elated with the appearance of Bohnstadt, the new pitcher, who arrived in Bisbee from Tucson Monday. And if the big fel- low with the saur kraut name is half as good as he is touted to be, it will be "2S'' for the pet stickers from Douglas who face n:m on the Don Luis diamond next Sunday.
 Bohnie has received all that is com ing to him in the way of size, and stands six feet four, and weighs 175 pounds. They say that he has speed, good curves, control. and is fast on his feet. Bohnstadt halls from Indi- ana, but most of his experience on the diamond he got in the SusQuehana Valley League, where he played with the Milton. Pa. team.
 At Tucson last week the big fellow pitched for the University of Arizona and won his game with ease, holding the Grays down to four runs, the score standing at the close of the game 9-4. Eleven of the Grays famed thf ambient.
 In the game with Douglas which is to be played with Don Luis next Sun day, Bohrstadt will have behind him practically the same team that won from Cananea last Sunday, with the exception of French and Mosher, who have deserted to Lowell. Dan An gius is firm in the belief that he has two better men to fill the place of the above.
 Graham will oficiate as umpire at next Sundays game. The excursion train will leave Bisbee at 1:30 o'clock sharp. This game will be the last game to be played on > the home grounds before Memorial Day. The months schedule follows:
 May 13, Douglas at Don Luis.
 May 20, Cananea at Cananea.
 May 27, Ft. Huachuca at Huachuca.
 May 30, Cananea ct Don Luis.

CHAMBER COMMERCE
 HAS NO QUORUM.
WILL HEREAFTER ISSUE cIRcU LAR LETTER TO ALL ITS
 MEMBERS.

The regular meeting of the Chamber of Commerce, which was to have been held last evening at the Y. M. c. A. building, failed to gather quorum of members. Chairman McNair, Secre- tary J. E. Morrison and Dan Angius were the only members attending.
 An informal discussion as to the best means to secure more favof5pie attendance resulted in a decision on the part of Chairman McNair to issue a circular letter to the members of the body. An effort will be made by those present last evening to secure a quorum some evening during the pres ent week for the transaction of i'm poytant business.
 Two committees were appointed at last weeks meeting, one for the pur- pose of submitting data on the an- nexsticn of Lowell and another to CO operate with the Veterans committee in making arrangements for Memorial day exercises.
 On the Lowell annexation the com Ditteemen are: E. B. Mason, I. w. Wallace, l.. R. Allen, J. E. Brophy and H. B. Hanscombe. The members chosen to confer on Memorial day are Vim. Emmons, Rev. H. NJ. Shields. J. E. Morrison, Harry Duey and Dan Apgius.
