A Famous Ball.

Elmer Stricklett, the spit balr'
pitcher had been listening long
while in New York club to the boast
ing of rival.
Well" he said, exhausted at last,
you are pretty good, Mike; but out in
Mountain View there is a young fellow
who can beat you. You'll hear from
him next season. His speciality is the
slow ball. This young fellow has such
slow ball that. when he pitches it
and sees that it is going to be hit, he
can run after it and fetch it back
again."

Government Work May Reveal Gold OF
Arizona Indians.

A Yuma dispatch says: "While
excavating for canals and bitches
leading from Laguna dam, engineers
may discover the mine from which
Indians have been securing gold for
years.
1.-THE Indians have been bringing
the gold as payment to local mer-
chants for flour, coffee and other
necessaries for several years, and
though the Indian has not yet been
found who will tell where the mine is,
farmers living in that vicinity have
been led to believe that the mine is
near Laguna dam, on the Arizona
side.
"The mountains on either side of
the dam, near the river, have been
thoroughly prospected, but gold is
seldom found on the first prospect,
and with Castle Dome on the east and
Picacho on the west, gold, in all
probability, is hidden in the noun

Apache Indians Shoot up Camp of Whites

There was an Apache outbreak OF
the reservation last week which
fortunately had no serious results
and this fact can be attributed solely
to the poor craftsmanship, as enough
shots were fired to constitute Cen
trail American revolution. The af
fair occurred about twelve miles east
of Globe last week at the temporary
camp of former Sheriff Will Stanley
who was bringing a bunch of horses
from the Stanley ranch on Eagle
creek. to Globe.
There were six men in the outfit
and they were preparing the camp
for the night when three Apaches
loaded inside and out with contra
band firewatcr appeared on the
scene mounted and armed with Win
chesters. They seemed bent on mis-
cheif from the start and the pale
faces could only humor them, as they
were very poorly heeled, but two six
shooters and small supply of am
munition being in their possession.
Suddenly one of the Indians opened
fire on Tom McKevitt, one of Shan
ley's party. McKevitt's sixshooter,
one of the only two wea pons in camp,
was hanging on the limb of a tree
and Stanley and McKevitt both made
a run for it, the latter getting it.
Two shots were fired at them, one
missing Stanley by a narrow margin.
McKevitt emptied his gun at the red
skins, who retired out of
range OF the sixshooter. Stanley
took refuge behind a tree, but he
took to the tall manipulated when a
few shots cut around him. All of the
men were driven out of camp by the
Indians and when they mustered up
courage to return the redskins
started back to turn the horses out of
the corral, but they did not succeed.
Mr.. Stanley stated on his arrival
at Globe that at least thirteen shots
were fired by the Indians. No dam
age was done by either side and al
though McKeyitt swore that he had
brought down a redskin or horse,
subsequent investigation could find
neither dead nor wounded.
Warrants were issued for the ar
rest of the three Indians and officers
left for the reservation to bring them
in. 1t was learned that the three
bad Indians reported to the agent at
San Carlos that they had been at
tackled by the white men because
they refused to, sell their horses to
them. An investigation as to where
the Indians secured the liquor will
also be made.

Assessment for This Year is Larger.

Assessor Howe stated that before
the close of the week he would have
completed the assessment of the
large mining companies of the
! county.
The mines of the Copper Queen
company will be assessed at approxi-
mately $3,25O,OOO for the year 1907 or
basis of a production of 6S,OOO,OOC
pounds of copper for the year 1906.
The total output of the Copper Queen
smelters for the year 1906 is returned
at 96,O00,0O0 pounds. but from this
production is deducted the custom
ores treated from other mines in CO.
chise county and adjoining counties.
! The report made rs the assessor
shows that the Copper Queen COM
panies extracted and treated ores
from the Copper Queen company
mines, which when converted into
( copper bullion, had cash value of
ST., 200, 900. One-fourth of this
amount, which is based on the New
York price of copper, is taken by the
which for the Copper Queen com
pany amounts to So, 100000
The Calumet & Arizona and
Superior & Pittsburg companies pro-
duced in round numbers IS, 500, 900,
and will be assessed at approXi-
mately 81, 125, 900 and the Tombstone
Consolidated company in this county
will be on the tax rolls for S250,O00.
The largest increase in the assess
ment of mining companies in this
county, under the operation of the
Dominion Mine tax law, will apply to
the Calumet & Arizona and Tomb
stone Consolidated. Last year the
Calumet & Arizona paid taxes on a
valuation of $500, ,OOO, and the Tomb
stone Consolidated on $4,000.
In addition to the above assess
ment, which applies only to the pro-
ducing mining claims, an additional
assessment will be made of the smell
ters, machinery and all other per-
sonal property owned by the COM
panies, which should materially in
crease the above figures.
The assessment of all property in
Cochise county will end on the first
Monday in June, and judging from
the mining companies, under the new
law, Cochise county will have re-
markable increase in taxable wealth,
