WELCOME RAIN.
D3WHpOur of Three Days Extends
 North, South, East and West.

There is considerable wetness in Tucson today says Mondays Citizen.
 Sc is there over southern Arizona, a4 we'll as Southern New Mexico and Southern California.
 Telexraphic reports state that the rainfall is general fropA Fl PAso, Tex as. to Los Angeles. When No, 10 left Los Angeles lest crday Sunday morning, iJ began to rain and the downfall was steady upon this train during it's entire journey as far as Tucson--a distance of 800 miles.
 The cattlemen ln Pima and Oochise counties are singing praises today as a result of the rainfall, which has been practically continuous since Saturday afternoon.
 The range had been eaten barren and the situation was such that unless plentiful rains came death Ey hundreds from starvation threatened the cattle. All the range about the watering places had been exhau ed and all that was left was some grass in the foothills, considerable distance from water.
 However, the rains that have fallen now will start the grass and with that growth which is the wonder of the Southwest, the range will again be- come greer within few weeks and there will be an abundance of grass.
 In addition to the starting of grass the small mountain streams will be filled and there will be plenty of water for the cattle which will HOW be en- abled to graZe on the grass Tn the foothills until the new grass starts.
 The rainfall in Tucson up to l O. clock today (Monday) was more than three inches. The downpour broke all records for its steadlness and even old pioneers confessed that for some time they could not recall the equal of this rainfall.

HardSheII Sold.

Concerning the sale of the Hard shell group of mines, situated in this county near Harshaw, by R. R. Richardson of Patagonia, the Tucson Citizen of December lst. says:
 "The second installment on the purchase prise of the Hardshell group of mines was made in this city today, Colonel R. R. Richardson receiving comfortable sum representing con- siderable fraction of the quarter million consideration for which he transferred the big copper property to Los Angeles and San Francisco capitalists.
 ''Colonel Richardson is reaping the reward of years of effort in the de- velopment the district adjacent to Patagonia. He states that the un- bounded confidence which he has felt for this district is being vindicated daily in the remarkable strides which it is making.
 4HC ACW OpCA the property as rapidly as possible, slnking below the present workings to the sulphide zone. Surveys have been made for a tramwaY connecting the Hardshell with the Flux properties and from the latter to Sonoita river, where smelting plant will he in stalled. Concentrating mills will be put in at each of the mines
 "The new owners purchased the properties only after most exhaustive examinations by experts, and so san guine are they of the great values in sight that several offers were refused for their option, which, if accepted, would have represented a handsome profit.
 'G. Ben Heney of this city con- ducted the negotia tions leading to the sale and is a member of the director ate of the new company. Mir. Rich ardson also retains stock interest"

S2OO Stock.

The past week has been somewhat quiet i'll mining circles, but the share market has taken on 8 much better tone, and trading has been brisk throughout the week. Calumet & Arizona has been the feature of the week and the shares have been going up steadily until the $l60 mark has been reached and passed.
 The rise in the shares of this com- pany Is strictly due to performance of the mines and not to stock manipula- tion. Constant discovery of new ore bodies has been the motive power which IS sending the stock up and it is almost a foregone conclusion that within the next sixty days O. & A. stock will sell at S200 per share.
 According to George Walkers let ter of last week the company is now turning out blister copper 90 per cent pure for less than cents a pound a nd taking their September output as basis the company has almost doub- led it's net profits within the past few months. It is also rumored that the company has lately made very val uable strike in ground heretofore thought to be Bisbee Miner.

Reliable information received this week carries statement that making of grade for track on the survey of the line from Imuris to Cocospera and from that point to Cananea has been commenced from Imuris It is further stated that rail will follow immediate y behind the graders and that within a very few weeks there will bt. esta b. lishei station at kilometer g, from which trains two day, will operate to Imuris, the service being extended this way fast as the track can be put down. A number of men and
 teams ars now at work and it is in evidence that the railroad people are going to go ahead with all possible celerity and get the line through as soon as that may be accomplished It is said that thIs will be considerably under the time limit of Is months which is allowed in the concession re- gently obtained. There is great deal of enthusiasm expressed among mining people operating in the country which will be tapped, they seeing in the con- struction of the line relief from condi- tions which have heretofore seriously interfered with the economical and profitable development of ground which they hold and from whick they have reason to except that they will be able to make extensive shipments to Cananea for treatment as soon as the railroad is completed. In view of the improved situation which is an- ticipated there is considerable going on at the present tine in the way of requirement of new ground in the district which will be put in touch with rail. the activity in this way be- ing the most extensive the section has known.-Cananea Herald, Dec lst.

The territorial auditor has turned over to the territorial treasurer $5,- 4I360. It was the total of the fees received from the incorporation bnsi- ness. This IS the largest business done in any month since that business was turned over to the auditor. The next largest month was that of last March when the fees amounted to 5,096 20 or S3l7 40 less than the fees for the month just ended.
 There are 365 convicts in the torri- torial penitentiary at present, which exceeds in number any year since the prison has been in Yuma. Sui erin tendent Millay states that in spite of the large Dumber, the guards are giv- en comparatively no trouble by the prisoners. From eighteen to twenty guards are employed to preserve order. As is generally known, all the work done within the walls is done by the prisoners, and many trades are suc- cessfully carried It has been found unpro6table by the territory to carry on any regular industry, as is so often done In other states

 As a result of the recent visit of Senator w. A.

The heaviest undertaking upon which work is to be inaugurated as soon as men can be secured, how ever, is the running of tunnel 1000 feet in length to tap the 1000 foot depth, or about 100 feet below the bottom of the deepest workings in the property at present.-Prospector.
