passers and put them TO flight The
BOYS used To have great fun with this
rather choleric old man-Disastrous
Clapp the boys dubbed him.
One day after Mr.. Atkinson had
grown up into prosperous and re.
spccfcd business man. while passing
along Boston street In company with
n friend. he recognized In u bent and
"izened old man the likeness OF his
old acquainta. ce. Constable Ciapp.
Mr.. Atkinson Immediately addressed
the old fellow.
Don't you remember me. MIR.

The old man leaned on his stick
and surveyed Mr. Atkinson .oldly.
Nav" he finally answered. and start.

A RARE QUALITY
 0F YELLOW METAL
John Kavanaugh, Well Known Globe Man, Tells of tho Green Gold Found in Mines of Pinal County Which Commands High Prices.

John Kavanaugh, manager of the Troy Manhattan company at Troy, was, while in Phoenix, showing about ring and a brick made from gold taken from the Lucky Boy mine in Pinal county.
 "This gold,' says Mir. Kavanaugh, commands high premium from New York jewellers, for there is very little of its kind in the world It is pecu- liar quality of metal, known as green gold, from the pronounced greenish tinge in it's color.
 Years ago when the Lucky Boy waa being worked Mir. Kavanaugh bought all the gold produced by that mine and acted us sort of middleman between the owners and the jewellers, who were so anxious to get it, He paid the mine owners more than they could get from anyone else for it and the jewellers pur- chased it from him at price far above that which is paid for ordinary yellow gold.
 It was used mostly for the manufac- ture of wedding rings, and it seems that green gold wedding and engagement rings have been fad for years among New York B Four Hundred.
 Of late the supply of green gold has been about exhausted. There were only two or three mines in the world from which it could be obtained, and for a long time the Lucky Boy was the principal producer of this rare and pre- cious metal. The jewellers are anxious to get another supply and would be willing to pay a higher premium than formerly if they could obtain it. The brick owned by Mir. Kavanaugh is about all of the mineral that has not been sold to the manufacturers and used for rings and other small orna. ments.
 This was most pleasant surprise for the owners of the Lucky Boy. The mine was recently purchased by the Consolidated Arizona Gold & Copper company, which is formed of Phoenix people The compahy intends to make the property a producer again as soon as possible and thus give the world another supply of the beautiful and rare metal which it seems their mine only can now produce.

The CHRISTENING
OF The CALF
Names Suggested For Caddo
County's Democratic
Mascot

A good deal Of solicitude 90 to-
the cognomen oi.Caddo oounty's
prize calf is evinced by tho local
Democracy.
We have received a good many
names. Two Democrats suggest
ed that Bryan" have the honor
of a little namesake in Caddo
county, and another gentleman
wanted to call him "Haskell".
The names ELMER and Fulton
were also mentioned. A fellow
townsman of Mr.. Boyle's who
wanted to see him get something
out of this campaign more monu-
mental than empty honor, sug-
gested Fremont, but Mr..
Boyle kicked on the proposition,
declaring that "a rose by any
name would smell as sweet and
gave as his opinion hat the
juvenile bovine should be called
"Caddo".
Meanwhile, little boesy is daily
making a timber legged, goggle-
eyed investigation Of the maternal
font in his home on the north
confines Of the county in blisstul
ignorance of the anxiety he is'
causing.
And the worst part Of il all,
Colonel Bill MoFadyen, like.
Achilles sulking in his tent, re-

Gratis out of a difficulty.
