The Telephone Voice.

From the indianapolis Star.
An Indiana telephone girl has won a hus-
band because of her sweet voice Doubtless
the husband is to be congratulated, because.
as high authority has 1t, voice. gentle
soft and low is an excellent thing in woman,
and is, 1t may be added, especially desir-
able in the case of the woman who presides
over the domestic hearth. With this ex-
ample before them, and others OF the kind
now and then reported, 1t might be thought
that the young women at the telephone ex-
changes would engage in systematic cult
walton OF sweet and musical information.
There is, however, a much better oppor-
tunity before them for winning popularity
than is to be gained by mere vocal sweet
ness, and that is promptness of speech and
action. What does 1t matter to the average
telephone patron whether the voice of the
operator at the switchboard is melodious
or not II 1t is slow in coming over the wire.
or IL it is heard. after long delay, only to

phone girl matrimonially or otherwise II she

the anxious caller that the line is busy
now" and continues SO to assert, while the
impatient man at the other end of the wire

idle chat with her chums? Nay, verify, 1t
is not sweetness for which the telephone
subscriber yearns, but for swift answer
to his calls and prompt and accurate con-
nection with the other telephone. The voice

"Denatured Women"

From the Minneapolis Tribune.
1t is said that some of the club women Of
New York complain of the way in which
the parks of. that city are Uttered up by
parties of children
No doubt such complaints have been made,
for there are finicky women everywhere,
81: we doubt II the whole burden of the
attempt to block the childish fun should
be laid at the door of the clubwomen, who
are often the objects of unjust criticism.
We should rather suspect that the idea
originated with those denatured women,
whether members of clubs or not, who
snort dogs instead of children.

THROUGH LINE FROM FL PASC TO OCEAN IS NEW PLAN OF
 GREENE ROAD.

Extension of the Sierra Madre rail road through the mountains to a con- nection with the Southern Pacific ex' tension, and a Pacific coast outlet is now the plans of the officials of the Rio Grande. Sierra Madre & Pacific rail road, as revealed in the latest ope- ratIons, says the Fl Paso Herald.
 Chief Engineer J. P. Hallihan, with a large engineering corps, has been surveying west of Casas GTandes for some time. Mir. Hallihan himself has made a trip through the mountains, and believes a suitable route can be found to give the Sierra Madre the desired outlet to the coast.
 This proposed extension has no con- nection with the extension from Cas- as GrandeS to Santa Tomas, on the Chihuahua & Pacific road, and this work will be carried on as fast as possible. The line has been surveyed for the entire distance, and the con- tract let for part of the construc- tion.
 The work on the Pacific coast exten- sion of the Sierra Madre will begin within a year it is said. The exten- sion will open a country now un- touched by any railroad. and will greatly enhance the commercial i'm portance of the road by giving a coast outlet and connection with the South ern Pacific extension of the Yaqui road, and a through line from Fl Paso to the Pacific across Mexico.

0LD TIMER GONE A. Eyeslee Passes to Beyond After Short Illness of a
 Few Days.
APOPLExY,CAUSED
 DEATH OF BARBER.
Suddenly Stricken Little More Than Week Ago, Man Dies at Noon Yesterday = Had Been in BiSbee 20 Years.

The death of A Eyeslee, which oc- cured tthe Copper Queen hospital In this city yesterday at noon, marks the passing of one of Bisbee's oldest residents, as well as one of the char acters of the old frontier days.
 A. Eyeslee was born at Stattin, Ger many, in lS42. leaving him G4 years of age at the time of his death. Com. ing 10 America while yet a young man, Eyeslee drifted to the great west in search of his fortune. Like many an- other he was attracted by the gold ex- citement of California, and for years made San Francisco his home. He came to Bisbee nearly twenty-three years ago and started at once to ply his trade as barber. The Eyeslee shop on Main street in this city has been a Weli-known tonsorial resort among the earliest settlers in the camp In this little show Eyeslee was able to amass snug little fortune, which now goes to his wife and five chil- eren. all of whom reside in California.
 At the death bed of the old man were two daughters, Mrs. Fits of San Jose, Cal, and Mrs. Harrigan of Fres-
 
 learning of the illness of their father. and have been faithful watchers at his bedside since he was stricken.
 On Sunday, May 20, MT. Eyeslee was taken suddenly i'll with what was supposed at that time to be stroke Of paralysis. He was at once remoy- ed to the Copper Queen hospital, where medical attendance could be ob, tained. For few days the sick man seemed to rally and hopes were enter tained for his recovery, but yesterday he suffered an apoplctic stroke imme- diately following hearty lunch, and succumbed without scarcely a strug- gle.
 He leaves a wife, two sons and a daughter in San Francisco, besides two daughters who are at the present time in Bisbee.
 Immediately following his removal to the hospital, Mir. Eyeslee called for Attorney J. NJ O'Connell and M. J. Cunningham, cashier of the Bank of Blsbee, with which institution he transacted his financial business. and 8 will was made, making Cunningham eXecutor.
 Besides the property on Main street where Eyeslee's shop stands, the dead man was possessed of considerable cash and some mining stock. It is understood that upon his request tha latter has been disposed Of since his illness overlook him.
 Eyeslee often made the beast that the Main-street property he bought at very low figure, it taking at that time nearly all his funds. It is a well known fact today that the property is worth several thousand dollars, meas. ured comparatively with other prop, erty in the immediate vicinity.
 The remains have been prepared for shipment to Gilroy, California

TUCSON BOY STEALS RIDE BE- HIND HAY WAGON AND IS
 CRUSHED TO DEATH.

A fatality which teamsters have long feared occurred Saturday forenoon when the seven year old son of Quad alupe Urquides, stealing a ride under hay wagon owned by Mayor L. H. Manning, of Tucson, fell beneath the wheels and met death in a horrible manner, says the Citizen.
 Time and again small boys have been chased off wagons by teamsters who feared just such a fatality as oc- cured. They have invariably, how ever, declined to stay of the wagons, and as a result one boy now lies dead on slab in Parker's morgue, with his head horribly crushed.
 The sad accident was witnessed by number of linemen who were work ing on Stone avenue and Fifth street, where the fatality occurred
 Seated upon the hay bales, the driv- CT Of the wagon was unaware that the little UrQuides boy was stealing a ride beneath the wagon. Going along on Stone avenue the wagon struck a chuck hole, and the boy perched on an insecure seat, was jolted off the reach onto the ground.
 He fell directly in the path of the heavy hind wheels. The lad gave one heart-renGing cry and then one of the wheels of the wagon, carrying two tons of hay, passed over his head, splitting open the skull and allowing the brains to ooZe out. Powerless to render any aid, the linemen were eye witnesses of the death of the boy.

SULPH|DE ORE IS ENCOUNTERED
 IN THE DENN
Shift Working in Drift on 1000 Going North Broke Into Body Of Ore at Midnight Last Monday.
Knowledge of Strike Sends Denn Stock Up Grade to the Extent of S20 per Share, and Still Going,


 Supt. B. Nj. Pattison. of the Denn- Arizona. yesterday made the an nouncement that the night shift, work ing at the Denn-Arizona in the drift being run due north on the 1000 level, encountered a body of low grade sui- pride ore.
 The ore was encountered at dis stance of 125 feet from the shaft and latest reports from the mine last even ing were to the effect that the face of the drift was still in ore. This drift was being driven in the direction of the diamond drill hole sunk several months ago and the appearance of the ore body had been eondently expect ed ever since the drift was started.
 The drift is going in the direction of the Dividend fault and the appearance of ore at this level carries out the con siant predictions of the wise ones who have been promising good things from the Dem for several weeks.
 There is no knowledge as yet of the extent of the ore strike but the announcement yesterday caused fur ry on the local market and as soon as the information went over the wires to the east, Denn stock was closely held and the last markings on the local board was that no Denn stock was being offered Denn closed on Monday evening at s14.00 and early yesterday afternoon bids of s16.0o failed to locate any of the stock for sale.
 The Denn-ArizoRa company was or Canized under the laws of Arizona in the spring of 1905, with capitaliza- ton of s750.000, 75.000 shares of a par value nf s1e.o0 per share. Up to date there has been 57,000 shares issued. 46,000 of which are controlled by the directors and 1S,000 still remain in the treasury. The Denn-Arizona prop erty consists of approximately 200 acres, comprising the following claims: Triangle, Robert E. Lee, Cotton Tail, York State. Orleans, Bucky O'Neiil, Xenia. Examiner. 0rphir, William, Bug gard. Adnira Dewey. and part of the John Daisy claim. Martin Pattison is president of the company at Duluth and l.. c. Sh5ttuck is treasurer at Bis bee. Byron Pattison is superintend- ent
 The announcement of the ore body in the Denn caused . crowd to collect about the brokerage offices in the city and bids for the stock came thick and fast during the morning hour before any idea of the extent or value of the ore encountered had been ascertained. A large block of Denn is held in Bis bee where it is fayorite among a lcng list of investors. The appearance of ore in the drift of the Denn, should it develop into permanent and ex- te1siye ere body means great fleal to the district American-Saginaw ard Warren will be benefited by the socd news.
