Montesuma's We'll.

About twelve miles from Camp Verde. Arizona, there is strange de- pressiOn in the earth which has been named Montezuma' Well. The base is five or six hundred feet across, and nearly circular. The inside walls go down pretty steeply for forty feet, and then there is a sloping mass of broken stone such as one sees at the foot of many cliffs. This, in turn, dips into a pool of water, which at it's center is said to be extremely deep. A writer for Science declared that the bowl was formed by the falling in of the roof of cavern previously excavated in the limestone by water.
 The Coon Butte crater of Arizona is similar hollow, but it differs from the one just mentioned in having a ridge around it. Besides there is no water in the hollow now, though there may have been in the past. Geologists have been puzzled to account for it, UCSduoC QIC lCW UT tions of volcanic action in the vicinity, and the resemblance to an enormous crater in low elevation may prove deceptive. Another theory, advanced by Professor G. K. Gilbert of Wash ington is that the earth was hit by a colossal meteorite, which was con- pletely buried, but which raised a ridge around the hole it made. That view has not much to substain it, ex- cept the discovery of some small frag- ments of a meteor within few miles of the spot. The man who brought the subject up in Science suggests that perhaps the so-called crater was not produced by volcanic outburst or a blow from some celestial body, but the same undermining action which ac- counts for Montezuma's We'll. He puts the case cautiously, for he has not wis ited Coon Butte, and does not know whether the rocks are of the right character to make the theory credible. -MaXwell's Talisman.

Old Dominion Mine.

The development of the Old Domin- ions 14th level sulphide ere body has been watched with great interest, not only in Globe, but in mining circles throughout the east and north, and in- terest changed to astonishment as the width and richness of ore was revealed from week to week in crosscut No. ?. Last Thursday night the hanging wall was reached and by actual measure ment it was shown that the ore body was eighty feet wide. The grade of the ore from the footwall to the hang- ing wall varies from per cent to over 40 per cent, being leanest on the foot wall and richest on the hanging, the average of the entire eighty feet being probably better than 15 per cent.
 A sample from 300 tons of ore brought down by the last round of holes in the crosscut assayed 40 l-2 per cent. In crosscut No. 3, 25 feet of ore has been penetrated and the value has increased from s to 20 per cent, being much richer than at the same distance in crosscut No. ?. Superintendent Berray thinks that the ore shoot will extend west probably 300 feet, the dis tance to the next cross fault, and he expects to strike another area of en- richment 150 feet further to the east of No. crosscut. With greater depth loss of copper value and an apprecia- ble increase in sulphur, which is more desired by the company, is expected.
 Plans of the management for deeper development contemplate the sinking of two-compartment shaft from the l4th level to depth of POO feet. It will be sunk in the country rock from without the footwall and is to be equip ped with an electric hoist and balanced cages. From the l6th level drift will be run to point below the main shaft, which will be opened to the l6th by an upraise.
 Ore from the l4th level, which is being sent to the shelter, has raised the average furnace charge to 10 per cent copper. The four furnaces are turning out 100 to 800 bars of bullion per -tifty-seven to seventy-two tons-and the production for March should run close to 3,50O,O00 pounds.
 Preparations are well advanced for the installing of No. furnace, which is to be shipped by the Allis-Chalmers company from Chicago, and it should be installed and in operation by June l. The extraordinary ore development have made apparent the necessity of further enlarging the reduction works and it is understood that the manage ment is already planning for sixth furnace which will require the erec- tiOn of another stack and converter and a corresponding increase of the power plant.-Globe Silver Belt.

story of Edward Everett Hale, "rhe
Man Without a Country" The man in
indianapolis might be called "'rhe Man
without a State" He has a nation, he
is a citizen of the United States, but
he is an exile from his own state. For
more than seven years this man has
been in enforced exile II is not the
policy Of the United States. nor Of any
Of the commemorative comprising the
United States, to resort to exile as a
form of punishment. Yet this man in
Indianapolis, through a peculiar state
Of circumstances, is indefinitely an eN-
lie, The indications are that he viii
remain so TO the end of his life. His
case is unique,
William sylvester Taylor Is the man,
the only American exile For brief
while he was governor of Kentucky, his
native state, the state he loves with
hlial devotion Then suddenly he
crossed the border into Indiana, and
foot upon the soil of old Kentucky.
Not only is he an exile, but he is con-
fined to the one state OF Indiana. and
In that sense he is a prisoner. Though
his prison Is vast and beautiful its
borders confine him. Should he pass
beyond those borders in all probability
he would cease to be an exile but he
would become a real prisoner at once
and his Jail would be small building

date domicile a narrow cell.
Ex- Governor Taylor is under indict-
ment for alleged completely In the muir

the legislature had declared Goebe

shot down. on his deathbed, Jan. 81
1900 he was sworn I'm as governor, su
porseding Taylor. shortly afterwarC
the ex-governor was indicted, with sew
