aRIEvE EoR WALSH.

His host of old time friends among the citizens of Douglas. and all tho big fraternity of railroad men along the line of the Fl Paso and Southwest ern, were grieyed to hear of the un timely death Of James walsh, one oi the veteran trainmen of that system who died yesterday at his home in El PasO.
 MT. Walsh is a former citizen of Douglas. In fact he was a pioneer of both the city of Douglas and the. E. P. & s. W. railroad, for he went to work on the road as soon as 1t was put in operation, and at that time had been making his home in Douglas.
 Mr. Walsh is said to be one of the sldes< brakemen on fhe road. A snort time ago he moved to Fl Paso, where he made his home. He has been sick ly for some little time, but was of dnty from his trains, No. and No. 2, only four days. His death is said to be due to stomach trouble and com plication of diseases. He was about forty years of age.
 Mir Walsh was extremely popular among the railroad men and all others who knew him, and the news of his death came as a shock to a host of people outside of his immediate fam fly. He leaves e wife and several chill dren, and it is understood that the funeral services will be held at his late home in Fl Paso.-Dougias Dis patch.

Malone and AdSit of Warren Company Leave City For
 That Purpose,

A. R. Malone of the Warren Com pany, and Caas. c. Adsit, electrical engineer for the same company, left the city yesterday afternoon for Chi cago. Chicago is Malone's home, al though the present trip is primarily business one as he and Adsit are going for the purpose of selecting cars for the street railway that is soon to be running into Bisbee.
 The work of completing the diff cult piece d engineering is progress ing in most satisfactory manner, and before many weeks the call of the ( IT, ductor fo r'fare. please" will be commonplace occurrence with tle thousands of Bisbeeites. The layIag of the track and the straightening up of the poles is in large measure completed and as soon as the power house at the Oliver is finished the completion of the much-taIl;ed of railway will soon after be reality. and all are keeping a guard on their property.
 Had the fire not been discovered as soon as 1t was. there is no doubt that the two little children of Mrs. Con chin would have perished.
 The house is the property of w:l- liam Dugan of Don Luis, and is in sured.
 A peculiar contrivahce was dis covered at the scene of the fire which resembles, as far as the mechanism is concerned. an internal machine A board about twelve inches long, per forated at one end with holes the size of a match was found. the match heads being burned. On the upper side of the board was another, only shorter and thinner, with a slit in the center and piece of sandpaper on the under side, directly over the holes where the matches were placed. A bolt fastened on the under board ran through the slit, and held the upper board in place with nut and washer. At. the end where the sandpaDer was placed, the upper board was held in position with two nails driveh in the side of the under piece, and clinched over the upper board At the other end was a piece of string, which was there for the purpose of pulling the upper piece over the match heads. The contrivance bears the marks of skill ed labor, as every part of the ma chine was done in a first-class manner. Who is responsible for this devilish piece of mechanism Is what the police are at present working on. With this machine a person could set a place afire from good distance.

PHOENIX WINNER IN THE LAST
 GAME
Score Five to Three in Favor of Browns-0ff Day For Flee harty-Shaner Was at His Best.

For the last time this season the fans of Bisbee watched with anxious eye the work of the home team in their efforts to pluck one more vic tory from the doughty Phoenix n--e-.-e= p.s4 thair fannas wore as naught, and the final ball was thrown and the last batsman was retired with the indicator still showing in favor of the visitors a score of to 2. The widely heralded "Cy" Young was on the slab for the Browns, while Fle- harty and Shaner each had a try at landing victory for the home team.
 Early in the game it was seen that the mighty Fleharty who had never before allowed the banner of the min. CTS to trail in the dust of defeat, was in for an off day thing that TO pitcl. CT has ever been able to completely avoid. He was succeeded by Shaner, with whom it was decidedly not an of day. In the four innings that he had charge of the delivery not a single hit was made by the Browns For the visiting team Becker brought in no less than four of the five runs that were made. bringing in two men each time he went to the bat. It was not due to Young that the visitors car ried off the last game for more hts were made off him than of both Fle- harty and Shaner.
 The members of the Bisbees team will leave for Phoenix Wednesday morning where they will complete the series of seven games which have been scheduled. three of which have been played here The first will he on the afternoon of Thanksgiving, and the other in the succeeding days.

Old Indian Frozen TO Death.

Matanuska, an old Indian who had lived around Knilt for many years, was found frozen to death few miles from that place re- cently. Near by was heap of wood srranged for fire and a box Of saturated matches. The old man had evidently attempted to build 2 camp fire and failed because his matches were wet. Finding that death was certain the stoical old Indian sat down under tree, leaned his back against it, folded his arms and passed into uncon- sciousoess. He was found in that position.

Production Of Copper.

One hund red years ago accOrd- ing to the Copper Handbook, the mines of the globe produced an average of about ten thousand long tons of copper ycarlv-less than the present yearly output of either nickel or aIuminum-whlle in 1 1906 production is at the rate of 15,OOO long tons per week, and there is much talk of a copper iamine-to which color is given by the present price of the metal, which is higher than for twenty-five years past. According to Copper Handbook, just issued by Horace J. Stevens, of Houghton, Michigan, in 1905 there were fifteen individual com panIcs each of which produced more copper than all the mines of the globe combined produced in 1905, and two mines, each of which made az much of the metal last year as all of the mines of the world made during tie first five years of the Nineteenth Century, the two mines in question being the Calumet & Hecla, of Michigan, and the Anaconda, of Montana.
