E. Riveroll came over from Chloride last night and departed to Los Angeles.
 He is getting the old shelter at that place in readiness to start up as soon as coke is received. A carload of coke is now in the Kingman yard on its way to Chloride. If a coke shelter will handle the ores of the Pinkham mine successfully it Is probable that a standard stack will be put in. The gentlemen in charge of the enterprise are doing everything in their power to make a success of the undertaking. The mine is all right and if the ore can be reduced on the ground it will mean great things for Chloride camp.

Henry G. Latter, of Milwaukee, arrived in Kingman Thursday night. He was met here by R. P. Wheeler and together the gentlemen are to go to the Suncloud mines, below Signal. A company has just been organized with large capital to handle these mines and Mr. Wheeler is to superin- tend the work. The mines show good bodies of an excellent grade of gold ore and the present development in- dicates the opening up of large ore bodies at a lower depth. The mines are situated close to the Big Sandy creek, where plenty of water for all mining and milling purposes can be had. Wood is also quite plentiful in that section.

w. H. Cushing arrived in Kingman Wednesday evening last from Topeka, Kansas, and will begin work at once on the grading for the new mill and hoisting plants at the De la Fountaine and Cupel mines, at Stockton Hill. The machinery for the plant is on the road and consists of a one hundred ton concentrating mill, two large gaso- line holsters and a steam pumping plant. Three cars are required to carry this plant and it is expected that it will arrive in Kingman within the next ten days. It will be hauled out to the Hill at once and erected with out delay. The ores from the De la Fountaine will be handled in this mill until the Cupel is opened up. These two mines are among the best in the county and will become immense ship, pers of lead and zinc concentrates.

Thomas Brayil departed last Satur- day to Chicago, where he will look after the affairs of the Scott's Lucky Boy mining company, of which con- pany he is vice president. Mir. Brayil intends to interest a syndicate in the development of the property, and as it is one of the best in the Chloride sec tion, he ought to have little difficulty in getting moneyed men interested.
 Work is progressing nicely on the Boulevard mine, of the Sheeptrail group. The ore body is found to be quite large and of a very high grade. It was in this mine that the old com pany lost the vein and were unable to find it. This vein has been found and is now producing hundreds of tons of ore monthly. The company has put on another team and are preparing to start up all the stamps at the mill. The new team will double the ore hauling capacity.

s. c. Bagg arrived Tuesday morn ing from Los Angeles and departed on the Chloride flyer for his camp over in Weaver district, where he has a force of men at work on the old Jen- nie property. It is reported that he has opened up big body of ore in this mine, having found the lost vein in the old workings. The ore runs several hundred dollars to the ton.
 O. F. Kuencer informs us that he has just completed the sale of the Golden Gem mine to mining corpor- ation and that within the next sixty days large concentrating plant will be erected on the property. This mine has been one of the largest producers of high grade gold ore in the county. There is enough ore now on the dumps and in the stopes to pay for the mine and a milling plant.

The Old Man at the Altar.

An old man knelt at the altar,
His encmys hand to take,
And at first his weak voice did falter
And his feeble limbs did shake;
For his only brave boy, his glory,
Had been stretch'd at the old man:
feet
A corpse, all so haggard and CORY,
BY the hand which he now mus
greet.
And soon the old man stopp'd speaking
And rage which had not gone by,
From under his brows came breakin:
Up into his enemy's eye
And now his limbs were not shaking.
But his clinch'd hands his bosom
crossed,
And he looked a fierce wish to be
taking
Revenge for the boy he lost.
But the old man he glanced around
him,
And thought Of the place he was in
And thought of the promise that hound
him,
And thought that revenge was sin
And then, crying tears like a woman

hand,
And I do forgive you, foeman.
For the sake of our bleeding lanl!

WITH THE POETS
The Place to Die.

The Place to Die.
How little recks it where men die,
When once the moments past
In which the dim and glazing eye
Has looked on earth its last
Whether beneath the sculptured urn
The uncoffined form shall rest,
Or in it's nakedness return
Back to its mothers breast.
Death is a common friend or foe,
AS different men may hold,
And at its summons each must so,
The timid and the bold;
But when the spirit, free and warm,
Deserts it, as it must,
What matter where the lifeless form
Dissolves again to dust?
The soldier falls mid corpses piled
Upon the battle plain,
Where reinless war steeds gallop viii:
Above the CORY slain;
But though his corpse be grim to see
Hoof- trampeled on the sod,
What reeks it when the spirit free
Has scared aloft to God?
The towards dying eye may close
Upon his downy bed,
And softest hands his limbs compose
Or garments DER him spread;
But, We who shun the bloody fray
Where fall the mangled brave,
Go strip the coffin lid away,
And see him in his grave!
'Twere sweet, indeed, TO close our eyes
With those we cherish near,
And, waited upward by their signs,
Soar to some calmer sphere;
But whether on the scaffold high,
Or in the battles van,
The fittest place where man can dio
Is where he dies for man.

But somehow his pleading and pro-

II don't doubt you believe what you

"but | still think this hermit, as you

And Martin, returning to his own

now dread sense of danger.

those men are?"
Game wardens, 'spect."
