oscEoLA LODE MINES.

Boston-Lake copper experts are be- ginning to wonder how the consolida- ton of Lake properties will affect the Osceola lode.
 The amygdaloid was considered one of the best copper producers at the Lake, but the com mDinatIOn Of the Osceola with the Tamarack, Jr., and the addition of the two Kearsage prop critics to make the Osceola Consoli- dated Copper Company, meant that these properties turned their entire attention to the Kearsage amygdaloid lode.
 This latter formation was richer in copper, and consequently the Osceola lode, as worked in the Osceola ana Tamarack properties fell Into disfavor.
 Until the Calumet & Hecla began operating upon the lode from four shafts 1t was generally considered to have no future owing to the fact that the lode had not proved up to what was expected of it in the Tamarack, while explorations in other properties the Centennial, Wolverine and Al louez-among others, proved dismal failure.
 South of Portage Lake the Isle Roy. ale thought 1t had found the lode and 1 spent considerable money in develop ment work to no end. That was m | the days when 1t was called the Huron
 Recently, the Calumet & Hecla through the skill of Superintendent James MacNeughton, has made pay ing proposition out of the lode and is now operating four shafts upon 1t and | getting out some good copper values 1 Mining men are also beginning tC | believe that the lode can be opened to advantage in those properties where I 1t was previously abandoned ss use | less. .
 The method used fin the successful | operation of the lode on the Calumet i & Hecia resembles the way the ifs. i sure veins are worked in the West.
 The trend of the lode Is almost ex. i actly followed, and in this way very much less barren ground has beer | encountered than was the case when the old straight level method was fol ' lowed.
 The copper that comes from the os ceola lode Is the purest of all Lake native coppers and most highly es teemed by melters for use in high conductivity electrical machinery.

"KIDS,' SK|D-DOO WHEN
 CURFEW RINGS AT NINE

When the curfew sounds at o'clock at night all children under the age of 12 years must either get off the streets or be arrested
 This was the order of Justice Hogan yesterday when the i've boys charged with stealing burros, buggy and har. ness, and going for an eight days out ing were brought before him to be tried. In his lecture to the boys Jus tice Hogan said:
 It is because you boys loiter on the streets at night that you are prompted to steal and commit wrongs. There will be no more of 1t. I shall urge the officers to arrest every boy they catch on the streets after the bell in the city hall rings for g o'clock. unless he is attended by a person of lawful age or is on a useful errand.
 Tt may be partly the fault of the of hcers for not ringing the city hall bell at this time. The city has an ordi- nance covering this, and in the future t will be enforced. Just such acts as you boys committed are what leads to criminals. Instead of loafing on the streets after dark you should be at home studying. You have no in terest in school. as I am informed by the superintendent, and you often play hooky.' If any one of you comes be ! fore me again 1t will mean a trip fol | you to the reform school at Benson fol

 Listening to these words of caution from the justice were George McGraw, Charles Moon, Richard Hammer, Wal ter Moon and Art Strawn, all accom- panied by their parents. The boys had been arrested by Constable Will moth and Officer Johnson after they returned from the trip. The complaint was sworn to by MT. Luttey, the black. smith on the Naco road, from whose place the buggy was stolen.
 However, as the boys gave him, their parents and Justice Hogan their word of honor that they would attend school regularly and never again commit a wrong, Mir. Lutty had the charge dis missed.
 The i've boys left Bisbee January 5, in the night. They had a sack of flour, few pounds of bacon and some salt They reached the Chiricahua mountains, where they camped, intend ing to leave the next day for Fl PasO. i During the night the burros got loose and returned to Bisbee. Leaving the buggy and harness where they had camped, the boys walked to Douglas | where they were forced to beg foI l something to eat. After sleeping in box car there over night they walked home the next day, following

George Graham, proprietor of the Merchants bar, at Douglas, took up a collection for Mrs. Woodall among the Eagles of that city. They paid a hotel bill of $14, bought her a ticket to Fl Paso, and gave her $25. AL though the Eagle lodge was in no way under obligations to perform this act of charity, 1t was done to help the old lady on her way to relatives.
 Elected from the car, outcast and alone, with two little children, no mo- ney, friends or acquaintances, the old lady sat in the depot at Douglas for hours crying. She was finally noticed by an officer, who notified Graham. asking if he would help to raise her some money. The woman was taken to a hotel, where she was given food and lodging for herself and the two grandchildren. They were started for Fl Paso yesterday evening.
 Officers here were notified of the matter. and have made a search for Pete Wilson. They have been unable to locate him. The old lady claims he was a gambler working some place in the city. She also ssid he was once a contractor, and might be work ing at that now.

ARIZONA SHOWED INCREASE.

From later reports 1t seemed that Arizona Is the only state or territory in the Union showing any material increase in the output of copper dur ing the past year. Instead of an in crease of 1S,000. 900 pounds, Montans really shows decrease of 22,000. 900. The total increase of production as Is now apparent was only i-2 per cent, while the increase of consumption is placed at 7k over 1905. The value of the output for 1905 Is given at s50.- 900 GOO, while that of 1906 was s184.- 900 900, the increase being principally caused by the higher price for the metal. The market seems practically bare of spot copper, which is now sell ing xf above 25 cents per pound. Hol. land. Germany and France have all been caught short. They were waiting for a decline in the price, and are TOW up against a famine.

SHORES OF GULF CLOSING.

YUMA, Ariz., Jan. 22.-Mr. H. Ar mitase, of Benson, stated to the press last Wednesday that he used to trap along the Colorado river. and by a thorough exploration of the region, had discovered that the shore of the Gulf of California once came close to Yuma and that the waters of the Pa cific ocean rolled their breakers with in a few miles of Arizona's western border. He says, in view of recent changes in weather conditions in Ari- zona, that 1t will be impossible to keep the increased volume of the Col orado river within its banks. as new breaks through the soft silt will keep on occurring, and that the gulf will finally resume it's old position and Yuma become a seaport, with a vast land-locked harbor-a second San Francisco, but greater.

The present outlook for crops are
