of the world.
The Ringing Brothers are making
a feature this year OF trained animal
acts, and. to give this feature distinc-
ton over all other shows. the celebrat-
ed RiccobOno horses, which dine from
plates at a table. wear boots, coats.
pantaloons and hats. make their own
beds and lie in them, have been en-
gagged as headliners. Other acts OF
this nature are Kerslake's pigs, which
shoot the chutes and skip rope; the
three herds of the best trained ele-
plants in the country in a new act
under direction of Pearl Souder; a
high-school of mules and ponies. and
a company of trick horses under the
whip of Nola Satterfield.
Among the forty aerialists the Fly
ing Jordans are easily the greatest in
the world. Others of great renown
are the Clarkonians. the Alvarez fam
lily, new to America, the Millets, the
Shaws and the Aerial Smiths in three
great double trapeZe acts, Joseph La
Rep, an aerial controtionist Of great
note. and the Spanish mid-air acrobat.
De Mario. The HOlloways. famed
throughout Europe. are doing the most
difficult and daring high wire act
ever before the public. and the Jordan
sisters. the Noetzel family and Claude
Roode are other high wire performers
of note.
Among the sixty acrobats are to be
seen such people as the famous De
Rocks with their gymnast dog, the
Marnello- Marnite troup who play on
Swiss bells while bounding. leaping,
turning handsprings and doing SOM
assaults in the air: the Patty Broth
ers, who walk on their heads: the
Borsenis. the Legards and the famous
MirZe Golem troup just from the court
of the Shah of Persia. OF special note
are the kaufmanns in a sensational
bicycle and unicycle act, Marno. the
celebrated Spanish clown, and the
Toreodors are others whose acts are
creating great enthusiasm.
The Ringing Brothers have organ
lied this season the best company
thsy have ever had, with more genu-
inc novelty and more European acts
than have ever been presented in this
country in all the past. In Phoenix

good general knowledge of the entire
state. but in Arizona at one place or
another. may be found almost every

eastern states. The territory is but a

A special line of study which Prof.
Thornber is also following is that of

later to make very important recon-

of agricultural crops that may be sue

of the territory. and as to methods and
processes for improving the ranges.
Another feature OF the professors

A Ten STAMP MILL
FOR THE ALASKA MINE
The Company Has Struck New Body
of Ore Showing Gold Values.

d. J. sullivan of Congress. formerly
assessor of Yavapai county was in the
city yesterday on business and has just
returned from the east. During his alb
sence he says that he had received
encouraging reports on the progress Of
the Alaska mine at Congress which is
being operated by the United Gold
Mining Co. of which he is the president
and manager. Upon his examination
Of the mine on his return he says that
ne was more than pleased with the
outlook and the quantity of high grade
ore in sight.
The mine is located $500 feet south If
the Congress mine and the two shafts
being sunk are on parallel ledge with
that of the Congress mine from which
has been taken millions of dollars. The
Alaska mine is a gold proposition like
the Congress and Mr.. Sullivan believes
that the Indications for a mine are as
good as were those on the Congress at
the same stage of development. The
mine was examined two years ago by
prominent Chicago mining engineers
who pronounced the proposition a good
one 4 test of 200 tons OF ore ran So
to the ton in gold. There are no baser
metals in the ore. making 1t easy t.
cyanide. Mr.. Sullivan is very enthu-
siastic over the future Of the property
and believes that il will some day b.
as big a producer as the Congress. The
ore ledge is there and has the values
and il is only a question of whether il
goes down to a great depth. The form
alton is similar To the other mine and
there is every Indication that the ledge
will go to an equally great depth. Thu
Congress mine is down 1000 feet.
A new and richer ore body on the
Alaska has been struck in the past few
months and Mr.. Sullivan says that
more extensive operations VII be begun
this fall new machinery has been or
dered. and that by April they hope To
have i'm ten staml, MILL There is
now on the dump 1000 tons Of good ore.
The two shafts are down 400 feet and
1900 feet of drifting has been done. All
the work has been ore and the ledge
runs feet wide. Mr.. Sullivan thinks
that the fall in the price of copper will
cause many more investors to turn
their attention to gold propositions.
The Alaska is backed by eastern cap
ital and the company is developing
what they have quietly and not saying
much but have in view one of the biz
gold properties in the territory. unless
all signs fail in this particular in
stance. Mr.. Sullivan has left the arena
of politics and is now devoting his en-
tire attention to his mining operations
at Congress.
