Find Made in Driving The Senator
 Tunnel
First Round of Shots To Be Fired
 Today
(rrom Saturdays Daliy.)

IL was reported here last night that Inc wall of another vein, presumably the Snooz,r, was struck yesterday in ,he Senator tunnel, and that the first round of holes would be fired in it by the morning shift. today.
 The result of the shot. will be nnNiously awaited. as the management, the miners in the mine. as we'll as all the prcspectors and miners in the dis trict. are more or less interested. The tunnel will tap the Snoolcr at depth of about 1000 feet. The vein is r. garded by old timers in the Hasa yampa district as one of the most promising of the Senator Mountain series of five, being developed by the great tunnel. The population of Pres colt is nlso deeply interested in the development of the Senator series of veins. as the entire district is tribu tary to this city from supply pur chasing standpoint.
 The shaft being sunk on the vein is now i5o feet in depth, and the pay streak, waieh shows a thickness of Ave feet. is holding out we'll and increas ing In copper and gold values as depth is gained. Stations will be cut in the shaft at every I00-foo' level and drifts started on the vein.
 The Senator group of mines, cover ing the series of parallel lodges opened by the tunnel through Senator noun tain. is located about twelve miles south of this city. The locations cover the veins from one mile to one mile and half. From many of the claims rich ore has been extracted on the surface and millcd and shipped at a profit. The Commercial Mining com pany owns the property. The develop ment, which is carried on under tho direction of A. !. Piekrcll. is consid- cred the most systematic and substan- tial ever attempted in northern Ari zona.
 The tunnel has already passed through three of the principal ledges and drifts and crosscuts are now be- ing run to these from the tunnel. Ore bodies carrying good values in cop per. gold and lead are exposed, anl tho prospects are that one of the greatest reduction plants in northern Arizona will be built to reduce and treat the output when the series of veins are all opened by the tunnel. which will he at depths ranging from 650 to 200 feet.

HOBBS THINKS WELL 0f THE TOMTO BASIN
 COUNTRY
(From Saturdays Daily,

!. W. Hobbs, who returned ycster- day from mine inspection trip in the Tonto Basin country, is enthusi- astic over the mineral possibilities of that section of the Territory. about which little Is heard on account of It's isolation from railroad, telegraphic and telephonie communication.
 "There is no boom there," sail Mir. Hobbs, "but I saw some very promising gold and copper prospects that wocld attract attention in moro favored localities. The district Is 100 miles distant from Flagstaff, 100 miles from Globe, li0 miles from Jerome and l30 miles from Prescott, SO you can see that it costs money and plenty of 1t to mine there.
 ''In the Mazatal mountains. a syn. dicate of Jerome and Prescott pcopl, are opening a group of claims known as the Coppers. look for good prop erty to be developed there in time. A number of other outfits are working ,n different places through the district in small way. and many are taking out good ore.
 "I believe that the distric, will. some day, be a great copper producer, but railroad Is badly needed there, just now,' he concluded.

Until then opr battle fleet, which should al. ways be kept and maneuyered as a unit, ought now to appear in our home waters in one ocean aud now ,o ap- pear in our home waters in the other. Before closing let me say a wort upon the subject of tt. regulation of the railways by Congress under tne Interstate Commerce clause of the Constitution. In my judgment the old days of happy gc'lucky indifference on the part of the public to the con. duet of the corporations have passed. The American people has made up .ls Liind that the conditions of modern in. dustrialism are such as imperatively to demand supervision in the interest of the people as a whol. over thcsc great corporations. Most emphat.eally we sLould do full justice to them; but in return we should exact justice frorl them to the public. Some of them have become so habtua,ed to lisrc- garding everything hut their own wishes and interests that the effort to establish proper supervision over them has aroused on ,heir pat cur- iousiy unreasonable sntagonism. Their spokesmcn do not seem to be aware that in what We have been tryiag to do we have not been improp rad' ical; using the word in its right sense, we nave been conservative. We have merely taken the first steps in pol. icy which must he permanent if our democratic institutions are to iudurc while, as a matter of course. we must also keep ever in mind that it Is cx. actly as injurious Co true democracy to infiict, ms iamcly to suffer. wrong. We can no more tolerate injustice to the lrailroads than injustice by them; one course is as immoral and as funda-
 
 the people as the other.
 'In the matter of supervision of the great railway corporations we are acting as all civilized governments have already acted or are on the point of acting. The unrestricted is- sue of railway securities without any supervision. and under circumstances which often result in the gravcst scan dal, should not be permitted, and only by governmental action can it be pre-. vented.

SOME POINTS ABOUT NEEDLES.
The Evolved Product of Centuries Of
Invention.

The point of needle Is a very i'm
portant part of that useful little in
strument, and there are many points
about needles calculated to interest
the general public. The daily con-
sumption of needles all over the world
is something like 100000, while
every year the women of the United
States break, lose and use some 300,.
100000 of those tiny tools. Few peo-
pie while threading needle have
ever given a thought to the various
processes through which the wire
must pass before it comes out a
needle. Yet the manufacture of
needles includes some FL different
processes from cutting the wire and
threading the double needles by the
eyes to separating the two needles on
the one length of wire, heading. hard
ening in oil, cleaning out the sides of
the eye, point-setting, and final pol
ishing. For wrapping purple paper Is
used, since 1t prevents rusting. There
are many sorts of needles, for sur
geons', cooks, glovemakers', weavers',
sailmakers'. broommakers, milliners'
and dressmakers' use. The needle is
the evolved product of centuries Of
invention. In it's primitive form 1t
was made of bone, ivory, or wood.
Point by point its manufacture has
improved, until this little but not in
significant instrument is now one Of
the highly-fnished products of TWEEN
tieth century machinery and SKILL

INJURED IN WRECK |
EIGHTEEN-H0UR CHICAGO-NEW
YORK SPECIAL is DlTCHED.
COACHES ROLL INTO RIVER
Brake Hanger Breaks and DeraiIs
Passenger Vile Running Fifty
Miles Per Hour.

Johnstown, Pa, Feb 25.-In one Of
the most remarkable and miraculous
wrecks that has ever occurred on the
Pennsylvania railroad, fifty-four pas
sengers and a railroad crew of ten
persons were more or less injured
early Saturday morning when the
Pennsylvania special, the eighteen
hour train between New York and
Chicago, was wrecked while rounding
sharp curve near Southfork, six
miles from this city.
The train was running fifty mir utes
late and was travelling over fifty miles
an no when it reached the curve.
The accident was caused by a brake
rigging dropping to the track from
the first Pullman coach following the
engine and combination smoking
car.
When the train left the rails, in
stead Of falling over, the cars slipped
down the steep embankment, which
was covered with ice and snow, into
the river. Fortunately the water was
only three or four feet deep. Had
1t not been for this 1t is probable
many of the passengers would have
been drowned before assistance could
have reac' ed them. AS it was their
escape from death was very narrow,
Many were taken from the coaches
through windows.
Without clothing and exposed to
the elements of one of the coolest
nights of the year, the suffering of
the passengers for a night was ex-
IRENE. The arrival of the train from
the west and the prompt response o.
the doctors from Johnstown and
South Fork saved them from suffer.
ing serious consequences from the
extreme cold weather.

these two words are full of more
misery to women than any other two
words that can be found in the

depression of spirits, reluctance To
go anywhere, baclSaches, headaches,
nervousness, sleeplessness, bearing

Destruction of FIeas.

The Agricultural Research institute
OF Bengal has concluded series of
scientific experiments to determine
the best method of destroying fieas,
the investigation having special ref.
erence to checking the ravages of the
plague.
The formula recommended is the
free use of crude oil emulsion-S0 per
cent. of crude petroleum mixed with
20 per cent. of whale oil soap. This
combination makes jelly which
mixes freely with water, and is gen.
orally used at three per cent solution,
while at 16 per cent. 1t destroys all
fieas with perfect certainty. 1t is ap-
piled to floors and walls with a
sprayer.
1t Is said that an animal washed
with it will be entirely relieved OF the
pests.
