TWO MINERS STRUCK BY LIGHTNING IN
 OLD MINE
Were Standing on a Ladder 80 Feet From the Bottom at
 Time.

DOUGLAS, Aug. 9.-(Special.)-
 To be struck by lightning and yet live to tell of it, little the worse for the shock, is the novel but terrible ex- perience of Luke Short and Wm. Bradshaw, miners working in the new incline on the Leadville property at Paradise In order to avoid down pour of rain, they repaired to the old incline near by and descended the ladder some distance Both rested on the ladder and Snort held with one hand the bell cord which was attach ed to the gallows frame on the sur face above. They had hardly com posed themselves, however, when there was binding flash and they lost con sci0usness-
 When Short came to few seconds afterwards, he found himself grasp ing the ladder, where he had pre- viously been resting, 80 feet above the bottom of the incline.
 Though receiving a lighter shock than Short, Bradshaw had a similar experience, but regained consciousness first. No after effects were felt by him, while Shorts left side, from the foot to the shoulder was partially paralyZed, the circulation of blood not becoming entirely normal until several hours afterward, when he again felt as we'll as before.
 That both were not killed instantly by the lightning bolt is little short of miraculous; while no farther removed from a miracle was it that both did not lose hold of the ladder when the shock came and fall eighty feet to their death. Thus it would seem that natural instinct remaiend with them ill unconsciousness.
 The physical explanation of the path of the electric current, Short says, is doubtless this: The current struck the gt!llows frame, then flowed down the wet bell cord, through hSort's body to the damp earth be- yond, where the circuit was complet- ed and the current grounded Brad shaw, near by, was probably the re cipient of detached portions of the current, and therefore experienced a milder shock.

MAY BE FIELD OF
 COPPER
Phoenix Man Claims He Has Mines Within Stones
 Throw of Capital.

W. O. Journeay, photographer of Phoenix, is business visitor in the city. Mir. Journeay, as a side line, has made study of copper deposits and incidentally has picked up a mining proposition or two. That gentleman is of the opinion that he has, in claims owned by aim and his associates, one of the biggest copper deposits yet dis covered in Arizona, and the best of the proposition lies in the fact that these Arizona's capital.
 Nine miles north of Phoenix, on the Cave Creek road, Mir. Journeay and his partners have located thirteen claims and have found copper at a very small oepth. MT. Journeay is in the city at this time for the purpose of interesting Warren district mining experts in his property, and promises that if they should pass favorably on his property to show to the mining world that Phoenix is not really the center of an agricultural country, but the heart of a copper field that not only underlays the city itself, but ex- tends for miles on either side of the official heart of the Territory.
 MT. Journeay will remain in the city for several days, after which he will proceed to other sections, where he is interested in mines, not the least of which, he says, is a placer deposit that will also startle the miners of Arizo- na. He would not diyulge the where abouts of the latter.

CH|LDS PERS|STENTLY STICKS ID TERRA
 TRINA HAUNTS
Former BiSbee Man Reported Dead, Turns Up Decided
 y Alive,

About three weeks ago a telegram was received in the city reporting that Ponder w. Childs, young man who was formerly employed in Bisbee. had dropped dead at the railroad station in Fl Paso. Yesterday it was learn ed that Mir. Childs read his own death notice while sitting on the front porch of his home in Macon, Georgia.
 At the time that the report was re- ceived, the fact that it was telegraph ed to the city and that ChiIds was known to be very delicately constitut- ed, made it appear to be true.
 Childs came to BiSbee early in the year from Los Angeles. He had pre- viously gone to Los Angeles from his home in Georgia, because his health had been failing for some time, and the physicians thought that the Cali fornia climate would be more conduc- i've to quick recovery. He did not seem to improve in Los Angeles. and came to Bisbee. He went to work at the Wave confectionery parlors, but on account of i'll health could not stand the work. He later went to work for Barker. on Brewery avenue, but was dSdlu lOICSu tO give up Ou account OI his health. Feeling rather discour- aged he decided to return to his home, thinking that the good care which he would receive would restore him to health.
 He left for the east. and the next heard of him was the telegram from Fl Paso, and nCty comes the news that he refuses to stay dead. A friend of Childs'. who had been very much grieved by the knowledge of his friends death, went to the post office yesterday morning, and received a pos. tai card, dated August 4th. from Ma con. Georgia, and signed Ponder W. Childs. Thinking that there might be something supernatural about the let ter, he wired his friend, and asked him why he did not stay in his grave. He received a reply to the effect that 1t was rather warm in Georgia at the present time. and much cooler above ground than below. The way the mis- take seems to have occurred was that young man did drop dead in Fl Paso that day. and on looking at the body some one thought he recognized Childs
 Seldom is a man allowed to read his own death notice.

continue to suffer rather than submi. to examinations which so many physi- clans propose in order to intelligently treat the disease; and this is the req son why so many physicians fail to cure female disease.
 This is also the reason why thousands upon thousands of women are corre- spending with Mrs Pinkham, daughter. in-law of Lydia E. Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass. To her they can eonfide every detail of their illness, and from her great knowledge. obtained from years of experience in treating female ills, Mrs. Pinkham can advise sick women more wisely than the local physician.
 Read how Mrs. Pinkham helped Mrs.T c. .Willadsen. of Manning, Ia. She writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkham:
 can truly say that you have saved my life, and I cannot express my gratitude in words. Before l wrote to you telling you how felt, had doctored for over two years steady, and spent lots of money in medicines besides, but it all failed to do me any good I had female trouble and would daily have faint ing spells, backache, bearing-down pains, and my monthly periods were very irregular and finally ceased. I wrote to you for your ad- vice and received letter full of instructions just what to do, and also commenced to take Lydia E. Pinkhams Vegetable Compound, and have been restored to perfect health. Had it not been for you would have been ln my grave to-day"
 Mountains of proof establish the fact that no medicine in the world equals Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Con- pound for restoring women's health.

WILL BLOW IN BENSON
 SHELTER, MAYBE

It is reported that the Benson smell ter will soon be in operation. The Benson shelter has long been known to mining men as the ''smokeless smel. ter" owing to the fact that it was never blown in.
 The plant is said to be first class throughout and in shape to be blown in at any time. There is plenty of ore to be had in that vicinity. Yet the smelter has never been opened and has remained merely a monu. ment to misplaced capital.
 It was built by outside funds and Benson money, which was secured by an enteTprising promoter. It has been frequently said that the smelter trust owned the plant, but whether this is true or not, it is well known that the shelter has never been blown in.
