"Hans Hanson"

The Hans Hanson" company band is twenty strong, and is the best theatrical band that will visit our city this season. Don't fail to hear the monday concert.
 More than half the worries and vexations of life might be avoided if we knew how entirely groundless are our anticipations of evil and dread of disaster that never comes If we could only get in the habit of looking at the bright side rather than the dark, we should find that in the average human experience our pleasures predominate; IT joys outnumber our sorrows, and days of health are far more than days of sickness.
 The comedy, "Hans Hanson," was constructed solely to illustrate the efficacy of looking on the bright side of everything. To witness the many visissitudes that attend the career of the unsophisticated Swede in his manly efforts to master strange language and live an hon. orable life is alone an incentive; and his Imaginable blunders bring smiles to the most inveterate wor- rier. This enjoyable Hans" can be seen at the opera house, Tuesday evening, Jan. 16. 25, 50 and 75c.

The Anti. Gambling Bill

Washington. Jan. S-The death knell of "the tiger" in New Mexico and Arizona as we'll as in Oklaho- ma and Indian Territory has been sounded in congress. Today Rep resentative Littlefield of Maine in troduced bill to abolish gambling entirely in the territories. The bill is very stringent in it's provisions and if it becomes a law will wipe out gambling in all it's forms. Se- were penalties are provided for the infraction of the law. The bill will without doubt pass in walk in both the senate and house and the news of it's introduction has spread consternation among the gambling fraternity in the territory.
 MT. Littlefeld is supported by the Woman's Christian Temperance Union, the Anti-Saloon League, the churches of the territories and other similar bodies and the pressure for the passage of the bill is enormous.

The Walsh Horse Case

Last July the NEWS made men, tion of the arrest of James Cleator for taking a horse from the range in this county. The horse was claimed by Jas. Walsh, who swore out the warrant. Cleator lived at Mayer. in Yavapai county, to which place he took the horse, Walsh at the same time causing a search warrant to be issued, which was served by Sheriff Lowry of that county. Cleator claimed he had been sent by L. V. Nellis of Mayer for the horse. Nellis, when the horse was retaken by the sheriff, brought replevin for repossession of him. and Walsh contested. Nellis claimed that he purchased the horse from local parties who had got possession of the horse from Walsh. A few days ago the case came up for trial before Judge Sloan at Prescott, Walsh and At. torney Sleeves going down to try the case. On the 18th day of De- cember last Judge Sloan decided the case in favor of Walsh, Cleator and Nellis losing the horse. We understand that when he received his horse back MT. Walsh let Sher- if Lowry and Joe Archambeau shake dice for him.
 Cleator also brought action fo, i $5OO0 against Walsh for malicious prosecution, which is still pending but Attorney Sleeves says he thinks he can force dismissal on the ground that this action has been brough
 in the wrong county, and motior to that end has been made in court

Card Party

Last Thursday evening at the home of Mrs. Thos. Maddock, Mrs. Lula A. Evans, assisted by Mrs. Maddock, entertained a number of friends at high five, after which delightful luncheon was served. A pretty feature of the evening was the tally cards, each lady receiving a pen and ink drawing of a gentle man and vice versa, the artist being Mrs. Evans herself. After luncheon the winners of the games were found to be as follows: Lady's first prize, Miss Koupal and Mrs. Joe John ston, cut for, and won by Miss Kou- pal; gents prize, Jos. Johnston and J. P. Parker, also cut for, and won by J. P. Parker. For the lady's booby prize there were three aspir- ants. but was finally won by Mrs. Herbert Dodge. MT. Jas. Kennedy had no rival for the gents booby prize, a baby rattle. Afterward Miss Dunn played the violin, ac companied by Mrs. Maddock.
 Those present were: Mr. and Mrs. Jas. Kennedy, MT. and Mrs. Herbert Dodge, MT. and Mrs. Jos. Johnston, Mir. and Mrs. J. P. Parker; Mesdames Maddock and Evans; Misses Dunn, Koupal, Springfield, Tefft, Sughrue, Simpson; Messrs. Murphy, Miller, Gillie, Dr. Baker, Lebsch and Dan Doyle.

THE HOSPITAL QUESTION

We regret that county affairs ne- cessitate that we appear in the light of chronic kicker, but as they look to us we deem it our duty to inform the public of the facts so far as we are conversant with them.
 On the last page of this issue ap- pears an item relative to the let ting of the contract for the county printing and publishing for this year. We now desire to refer to the item in the supervisors min utes on the first page where it is stated that the care of indigent sick at the county hospital this year was let to T. E. Pulliam. By a careful reading of the two bids submitted it will be observed the contract was let to MT. Pulliam at greater price than the other bid called for.
 At the meeting of the board of supervisors on Dec. 2S, 1905, MT. Pulliam acted in the capacity of deputy clerk, and as such signed the minutes of the body for that meeting. The minutes of no sub -sequent .Ieeting of the board have contained an item where it was stated that MT. Pulliam was no longer authorized to act in that capacity; therefore it is but natural to suppose that even at this time MT. Pulliam is in reality deputy clerk of the board That being the case we desire to quote from the 1901 statute, par. 999, sec. 72, which is as follows:
 ''No member of the board or the clerk of the board must be inter ested. directly or indirectly, in any property purchased for the use of the county, nor in any pur chase or sale of property belonging to the county, nor in any contract made by the board or other person on behalf of the county for the erec- tion of public buildings, the open ing or improvement of roads, or the building of bridges, or for other purposes"
 Also note the following:
 "991. (Sec. 64). No demand on the county treasury wherein any county officer shall at any time while in office have been~a party or otherwise personally interested, shall Le approved. allowed or paid, i but every such contract, claim or demand is hereby declared null and i void, except for official compensa- tion of the persons in whose name it is presented"
 Contrary to law MT. Pulliam was last year paid county money for the care of the county sick while acting as one of the county officers. This year, while still county off

AN ARIZONA REPUBLICAN

[Contributed1 I'm red-hot republican, and I don't mind telling you. I'm just the same my daddy was. And even his daddy. too. The good old party I've always thought In the main was true and good, And tho sitting on some of its grafters, By it I've always stood. I've read lot bout the G. o. F., And its predecessors, too; With little Rhode Island upon the map, guess it must be true. Washington, Franklin, Hamilton, Lincoln. Garfield and Grant; On them and upon the party Pm ever ready to rant. My people have always been white men Of the Anglo-Saxon tribe (When my mine pans out and look up my tret Pll tell you more with pride). I came to this sunny land Arcadia in the rough, That needs but the pick of the miner bold. And blow, with water enough To grow mills, homes, churches, Universities. cities and farms To rival the Arabian Nights, or The real estate dealers yarns. At first was a little lonesome,
 Till some more of them came along; And now kind O like the place,
 And my feel'ins is always strong. "I can't quite understand it;
 But should party profit prevail, And force decent white state
 To have colored thing for tail" fJc hao l,alr
 That my heart is so sadly tore, So these are my sentiments,
 If they are in metaphor. "If ever they try to marry me-
 To Miss New Mexico, Me-a single minded chap
 Who's never been her beau, From bad to worse I'll Init the grit," And the party will find that I'll hate the sight of the G. O. P.
 And be even a democrat"

ELLwELL GOLD MINING co.

George R. Welborn. president of the Ellweu Gold Mining company. will leave tomorrow for the companys property in the Huachuca mountains to begin operations. A force of men will already have arrived at the camp and will commence work during the present week. MT Welbon states that considerable development work is con templated and that a shaft will be sunk to a depth of about 200 feet to tap the vein of the mann tunnel fur ther down the mountain Machinery and supplies for the company have aI- ready arrived at Hereford and are be- ing transported to the mine.

supply is insufficient It is proposed to put in large pumping plant in the Mohave valley and pump water into the district to supply every mine in il. The survey has already been made for the line which will be eight miles in length. At a depth of fifteen feet wa ter is found in the valley in abund ance. while a a depth of thirty feet it is impossible to pump a well dry with the largest pump While this line will be expensive it is necessity and the mines to be successful will have to go to the expense of putting it in. On the other hand were the mines to be sunk to a depth of one thousand q feet an abundance of water would surely be found. It would appear to be a lack of good mining judgment to attempt to exploit the barren zones in the mines when at greater depth great ore would be found. So far the district has shown that a barren zone
 exists at a depth of 800 feet in prac- ticauy all the mines and at that depth
 many of them have had the greatest amount of drifting and crosscuttins done. The money spent on that level
 would have paid for a big shaft to a depth far below the water level The
 work on the Goldro5d mine has dem onstrated that depth is essential to tho life of the mines of san Francisco dis ! trict.-kiugmaa Miner.

Harry Barnett. general manager, and his cousin. A. w. Barnett of Philadel- phia, vice president of the Happy Jack Mining company. came down from Patagonia Thursday and returned yes terday. The men had just come in from the mines, which are being eXten- sively explored and developed and which at the present time are produc- ing high grade silver-cOpper-g ore. which will at once be shipped to the shelter at Fl PaSO. The man from the old Keystone state is more than pleased with the properties of the Happy Jack Mining company, of which at the present time he is the largesJ stockholder. The company is in most flourishing condition, financially and every way. and recent discoveries oi splendid high grade ore at the 100-fOot level prove couclusively the worth of the property and assures splendid divl- dends for those interested.

Equally as wonderful as any of the rich strikes reported here within the past few months is that reported from the tunnel being run on the Storm Cloud mine, in the Hassayama district where fourteen inches of the highest grade copper ore yet found in that tun- mel has been uncovered in a place where it was not suspected.
 The new discovery, says the Prescott Journal Miner. was made 439 feet from the mouth of the tunnel, at a depth of about 1S5 feet from the surface. The new lens of ore. while following the same vein as the other three-foot streak from which already a good grade of shipping ore has been extracted, is entirely independent of i., and of much higher grade. A drift will be started along the new find with a view of de- termining it's extent and richness.
 The Storm Cloud mine is one of a group of seventeen claims recently pur- chased from Fred Williams of this city by the H. J. Beemer company, the new company being now actively engaged in prosecuting an extensive plan of de- velopment work on three of the prln- cipal claims of the group.
 Situated immediately east of Maple gulch and adjoining the Senator prop critics. which are being opened by the l Senator tunnel, the ground is tra- ! versed by the same series of veins be- ing tapped by the great tunnel. two ot which are now being developed by ! shafts which have already attained 2 fair depth and in which there are eX- cellent showings of ore of a good grade
 As far back as the early 70s, on the claim upon which the new strike Wa. made, much rich ore taken from th' surface workings was shipped at { profit to smeIters in other states, be side a large amount Of the free milling product was reduced by the arastr' process. which gave large returns.

 VISITING GLOBE
Black Hawk, Copper Hill and 0. D. to
 Have Rail Connection.

President N. L. Amster of the Ari- zona Commercial Copper company, and J. H. Cody of Hayden, Stone and com pany arrived from Boston Wednesday night and will remain here several days. says the Globe Silver Belt.
 The gentlemen spent the forenoon to- day inspecting the Copper Hill and Black Hawk mines. devOting most of the time to the latter property Mr- AmsJer staved that although he had been kept informed of the develop ments in the Black Hawk, the ore body on the 500-foot level. exceeded his eX- pectatiOns. The cross cut is still in ore. which is now over eighty feet wide and the drifts started on Tuesday are both in ore of d very good grade. The 50O-foOt cross cut has been driven nearly ninety feet and for forty feet of the distance has been in ledge mat ter carrying some iron and little copper. with a gradually increasing ! percentage of the latter metal It is ] probable that this crOsscut will enter l the main ore body within the next l twenty or thirty feet and the manage ment expects to find the ore fully as good if not better than on the 4O0-fooi l level.
 President Amster informs us that | connect the Black Hawk and Copper ! Hill mines with the old Dominion rail
 road at a point above the smelter vii
