The New York Arizona Gold and Copper company is maintaining con- tinued wave of activity which has not diminished in the least since it's or ganization less than year ago. Op. erations have continued increasingly ever since the start until now. A large amount of development work has been accomplished, furnishing encour- agement for the building of a ten- stamp gold mill. Some handsome gold lodges have been uncovered, assaying
 into the thousands, but the manage ment of the company are banking their future on the large amount of low
 grade milling ore already proven up. Jemes Wester, an experienced assayer has been busily engaged for the past
 few months making an exhaustive nu nber of assays, determing whether or not su ficient milling ore existed to warrant the erection of a mill. His findings were of an affirmative nature and he is at present off on tour in specting gold mills in order to make a wise selection of the plant best adapt ed to the class of ore to be treated.
 The Lillian tunnel is in 800 feet, show ing large bodies of milling ore carry ing gold, silver and copper. The Will Hams tunnel, in which l2 feet of gold silver ore has been struck, is in 200 feet, and the Thompson tunnel is in a distance of 2l0 feet, showing several rich ore bodies. An assay taken from this tunnel gave returns of 35O$ gold to the ton. The Ruzzard Shadow, on which the exceedingly rich gold strike

Rush for New Gold Digg,ngs.

A Tacoma dispatch to the Chronicle says: Three hundred prospectors have left Fairbanks and over l0J Valdez for new gold dig gings on Valdez creek, a tributary of the Shushitna river, dis tant about 20O miles from Valdez Only hardy and experienced prospec- tors can safely make the winter trip to the new camp. Much excitement prevails regarding it, because return i miners declare it will become one of the great camps of Alaska, Dan K me has reached Valdez with 900S nugget from Valdez creek, besides con- siderable gold dust.
 This is the first important gold strike in the Shushitna valley, which the Alaska Central Railroad will eventu- ally develop. For this winter, at least, main travel to Valdez creek will be via the Valdez-Fairbanks trail, rather than via Seward. The Government trail is followed to Gulkana. l3O miles from Valdez. The route is thence westward up the Gulkana river and its right fork; thence across the divide U tributary of Shushitna river; thence on the ice to Shushitna and up that stream to Valdez creek, a dis t,nce of eighty-tive miles from Gull kama.

Mexico's Opportunity.

It is but our opinion, but we firmly believe that Mexico will reap more benefit than any other country on the globe from the financial stringency in the United States and which even Europe is feeling. Our premises are these:
 l. Mexico is in thoroughly healthy financial condition.
 ?. Her immense natural resources are unquestoned, are attracting the attention of the financial world and have been for some time.
 3. There is no question as to the new position Mexico now occupies in the great family of nations as to a stable government. it's national credit and the immensity of the country's natural resources.
 4. All that effects Mexico now is that the financial furry in the States and Europe naturally touches foreign enterprises in this country and makes Mexican banks cautious.
 From the above premises we nat urally conclude that Mexico will soon show up as the clear field for capital as the least effected in the present financial situation. That there is Just as much money in the United States and other great commercial countries as there ever was is undoubted. Those who are boarding money will soon get tired of getting no interest or divi- dends and Mexico is the country that offers the most inviting field where everything is nearest to normal fnan- cial conditions. Money seeks such con- ditions as naturally as water seeks its level. In our opinion Mexico will soon be receiving investments of foreign capital far in excess of anything yet known.-Chihuahua Enterprise

NEW SIGNAL CODE
OFFERED TO NAVY
Work of Ohio Man Now
Before Commander
Sellers.

Lieut.. Commander David S. Sellers.
aide to Rear Admiral Willard H
Brownson, chief of the Bureau OF Navi-
cation. has before him for his lnspec-
ton an unique signal code. devised by
an Ohio man, who offers it 10 the navy
for adoption.
The inventor of the code is Dr. Clark
NJ. Barstow, physician Of BRYAN, Ohio.
He offers TO the navy what he declares
TO be d vast Improvement. not only over
the present system, but over any signal
system now in use anywhere. He sug-
gests but three cOlors-red. white. and
blue. whereas four colors are employed
by the navy-red, white, yellow, and
blue. By the numerical code which DR..
Barstow has worked out. II appears 70
be possible 10 flash signal numbers run
ming far into the billlons-considerab
farther than the navy expects ever 70
have any Use for.

would be done by flags, and Dr. Bar
stow has shipped 70 the department a
box OF globes for night signaling. An
unique feature Of the Ohio physician S
system IS combine tiOn globes. in which
two or three COlOrs may be flashed at
one time. making for instance part OF
a signal, as red blending into white and
white into blue, or vice versa. or the
other remaining combination.

fed with the present system, DIT. Bar

NEW YORK, Aug. "a brindIed bull
dog, a Maltese cat, and a hop-toad were
strenuous actors In n trago-comeedy

the dog and cat made their exits with
precipitation; the hop-toad, slightly

of the Maltese as she made a spring
and landed. with both fore feet on the
toad's back.
Pussy's hold on the toad was short
lived. for, at the very moment of her
success, she saw the cog with wide
open Jaws almost on top OF her. Re
leasing her prey she turned and dashed
for the nearest tree, up which sho
