AT the time the change in management

NJ. Eakin, the old superintendent Of the
property resigned his position and went
to Nevada in the interests of himself, j.
e. Darmer and others to prospect and
look for something that could be de-
pended upon to make a mine. About the

to begin development work. Since the
9th of July he has sunk shaft close

ANOTHER BROKERAGE FIRM
TO GET INTO THE GAME

Another brokerage firm is ABOUT ready
to commence business and become an
active participant in the affairs of the
local mining stock exchange. Dern &
Thomas is the name of the latest organi-
cation and both men are well-known in
mining circles. Fred c. Dern and Arthur
l.. Thomas will conduct the business and
the expectation is that Mr.. Thomas will
be the active man on the floor of the ex-
change.
While both members of the firm have
been identified with the companies of
which John Dern is the managing head,
there is absolutely no connection between
the new brokerage firm and the compan-
les by which they have been employed,
nor are they starting out with a purpose
of representing anybody but themselves IN
the business. They have many friends all
over the state and the mining west and
they are going into business to stay.

MEXICAN TO SERVE
100 DAYS IN JAIL
Convicted Appropriating Ne
gro'S WatCh-CIaimS 1t
Was Given Him

Jesus Rivera was tried in Judge Ho-
gan's court yesterday on a charge
OF theft and sentenced to $50 days in
Jail. He was alleged to have stolen
a watch and chain from negro nam
ed A. r. Ross.
The incident occurred Sunday. From
the evidence introduced it seems that
the Mexican took the watch and chain
which was valued at about $50, from
the negro while ne was asleep. He
afterwards had the temerity to re-
turn to the saloon in which the ne
gro was sleeping when he took the
watch from him and tried to soak" it
to the bartender.
Constable Twomey was waiting for
him and promptly took him into Gus
tody, a complaint having already been
sworn out. The charge was not a
felony one, for the reason that tae
law requires that there shall be evil
dence to establish the fact that gne
article alleged to be stolen was taken
from the person of thes oman alleged
to be robbed. There wassno witnesses
who had seen the Mexican take the
watch from the person of the negro.
Riveria,s defense was that he did not
steal the watch but that it had been
given to him by party who had ask
ed him to soak it.

The accident occurred very near the

shaft his foot in some way slipped, and
to the horror of the men who were
working with him, he plunged through
the opening. Those who watched him
as he made the plunge through space
say that he struck several times be-
fore he reached the bottom, and it Is
probable that he was fatally injured
before the fall had ended.
Physicians from the Copper Queen
hospital were Immediately summoned,
but they could do nothing for the in
jured man. whose heart was barely
fluttering by the time they reached the
scene of the accident.
