The many friends of NJ. H. Kane,
who has been down with typhoid for
some weeks past, will be pleased to
know that he is now improving.
During last week his condition was
considered somewhat critical, but
thanks to a splendid constitution, and
the best nursing and medical atten-
ton, he is now on the road to recov-
cry, and will soon be past all danger.

purchased the H. c.. Day horse ranch
at STEMS Pass New Mexico, which is
one of the finest ranches in the
southwest. Mr.. Pitt has been pur-
chasing brood mares for some time

farming in the ella valley in New
Mexico, where he has one of the
best equipped farms in the valley.

a few months ago to take the active
management of the company's
affairs, Mr. Colquhoun has been a

with the unusual hot weather of the

feel the need of a little recreation.
He will probably return to Clifton in
a month or six weeks.

The Mcdowell grocery store on
Chase creek has been sold to Hallett
Neff, who is now in charge of the
business. Mr.. Mcdowell will open
his new store on Chase creek Monday
next. His business grew so rapidly
during the past year that he found it
impossible to accommodate his trade
in the old quarters, hence he erected
the handsome new stone store build
ing on Chase creek. Hallett Neff,
who has purchased the stock in Nc
Dowell's former location, is young
man of business training and energy.
He has a bright future before him.

A gentleman who recently arrived
from Sonora states that the Greene
Consolidated company of Cananea,
recently shipped three hundred
Cinnamon from Guaymas to Canauea,
where they will be put to work in the
mines. They were brought up over
the railroad to a station below No.
gales, and were taken across the
country from that place to Cananea.
1t is understood that the Greene
company is sorely pressed for miners,
as many of the Mexicans heretofore
employed there have left for other
sections. Cinnamon as miners have
not heretofore been a pronounced
success. In the early days of this
district they were given trial, but
the company finally found that it was
necessary to dispense with their
services. The experiment at Can
anea will be watched with interest
by all mining men interested in Mex
leo, where labor is very scarce at the
present time.

J. o. Baylor returned last week
from the White mountains, where he
spent couple of weeks fishing and
camping. He reports the weather
as delightful in that section, and
says that there is still considerable
snow on the north side of the noun
tains. Mr.. Baylor bitterly denounces
some of the alleged sports for their
destruction of the finny tribe. He
says that some individuals have been
known to catch as many as one hun
dred and fifty and even two hundred
fish in a single day. They were
mostly under size and were not re-
turned to the water. In all such
cases the fish were wasted as they
could not possibly be used in the
camp. He states that if this destruc-
ton is not stopped there will soon be
scarcity of fish throughout the
mountain streams. The attention of
the fish and game warden is called to
this matter.

The Stevens mines, which are now
being operated under a lease to the
Stevens brothers, and said to be
making a remarkable showing and
producing nice tonnage of high
grade ore. The mines were recently
bonded to parties who are supposed
to represent Calumet and Arizona
people, but the bond will expire on
the first of next month, and if not
taken up. the leasers will materially
increase their working force. The
ore is hauled by wagon to Metcalf,
and from there shipped by railroad to
the Shannon smelter, where it is
treated. The leasers are in hopes
that the deal will fall through, as
they think that the company, in
which they are largely interested,
will be able to do better after the
mines have been worked for a year
or two longer

George E. Stevens OF the Gold Belt
crew, was in camp during the week
on his way to Clifton and informed
us of another strike made on the
property which may develop into
one of considerable Importance.
While grading to move the hoist
from the wagon road to the shaft a
distance of about three hundred feet,
a vein about two and one half feet
in width, which had evidently been
covered up by the wash, was encount-
cred and upon examination found
to be literally specked with free
gold. The extent of the vein is not
known but some development work
will be done on it to ascertain
whether it is a substantial lead or
merely a rich pocket.-Morenci

MINES AND MINING.

E. .. Beauchamp, manager of the
week, and exhibited a number of
specimens recently taken from a
"new strike" on the property that
were perfectly "lousy' with coarse
free gold. These specimens would
run several thousand dollars to the
ton. They are certainly the equal of
any finds made in Nevada or Sonora.
Jacob Metzler, of Dallas, Texas,
who is largely interested in the Po-
laris Mining. company, came up last
week to attend a meeting of the
stockholders, and if possible arrange
to have the various interests harmon
ize on some definite plan of action.
1t is thought that the company will
soon be in shape to resume opera
tious.
Poland and Nelson, well known
mining men of the Frisco section of
the Greenlee district, spent Tuesday
in town. They have recently been
doing some work on their property in
''the basin," and report that they
have from three to four feet of ore
that will average 30 per cent. lead,
and that it also runs well in gold and
silver, making general average of
about $3.50 per ton. If they had d
wagon road to their camp this would
be fine shipping ore, but at the pres
ent time they do not expect to be
able to handle it.

WOMAN IN THE CASE
Captured Large Audience at the
Grand Last Night.

"The Woman en- the Case" Clyde
Fitch's new play, was presented at the
Grand last evening to large and ap-
preciative audience. Blanche Walsh,
always favorite with Canton auoI-
ences, supported by a large and un-
commonly strong company, gave the
theater-goers of this city rare treat.
The value Of the play-and that is
great and satisfying-lies in the pre-
sentiment of the true wife. and very
largely in teaching one the attitude of
the true wife toward the husband she
loves.
The scene in the third act which
shows Blanche Walsh as Margaret
Rolf in an apartment associating with
Claire Foster, woman OF the word,
in order that she could obtain the
facts regarding the death Of Claire's
lover, and whom Mr.. Rolf was accus-
ed of numbering, was tremendously
impressive and the large audience re-
cognized 1t with five OF six curtain
calls.
Dorothy DoT. as Claire Foster,
was thoroughly mistress of her part;
in fact all the parts were played with
individuality. Blanche Walsh, who
is without doubt the greatest emotion
al and tragic actress on the American
stage. never more captivated her au-
dienoe than she did in this play.

ARMY on THE MARCH.
Practically whole Military Force OF
United states Is Moving.

Washington, July 23-Without at
tracing much attention probably be-
cause the movement is general and COW
ers such wide territory, for the first
time since the civil war almost the en-
tire army of the United States is on the
march. Frequently large bodies of
troops have been moved in this way and
during the Spanish war the entire army
was moved but IN that case nearly all
the men were entrained. In the pres
emit case they are marching afoot and
on horseback from the various posts
ana concentrating at the seven big
maneuVer camp where the regulars and
miitlamen are to train together
OIncers at headquarters are not sur
prlsed 10 learn that the men are SUI
AeIlnB some from the hardSh1pS or the
march, that many drop out from heat
and fatigue and that there has been
considerable loss of horseflesh. The
1act Is, as stated by General Oliver, the
acting secretary Of war, and himself
a veteran, that the men have become
sort IN post life and it is one of the
principal purposes of the marches to
the joint encampments to discover the
weak spots and to season the soldiers
by approximating war conditions as
closely as possible. Foreign observers
OF the famous international campaign
in China noted with surprise the reck-
iesSneSS With which the American SOL
diers tossed away their blankets and
knapsacks and other articles of cloth
ing on the famous march from Tien
Isin to Pekin. The reason was that
the American soldier had been unsued
to carrying any baggage: he had left
all that to the quartermasters wagons
NOW, all this is to be changed and the
regular soldier is to be trained, like the
European soldier. to carry all of his
necessaries throughout the days march.
1t is true his pack will not be as heavy
as the 40-pound kit carried by European
soldiers, although he is physically quite
as able to carry it, but he is not to
be allowed TO discard his blanket or his
half of the shelter tent or his rations
and toilet articles and ammunition as
has been done in the past
