A Cantaloupe Proposition.

The Yuma Valley Fruit Growers As. sociation will have a meeting within a few days to consider a proposition re- gently submitted by Mr. L. NJ. Lyon, the cantaloupe commission broker of Chicago and Rocky Fork.
 The Yuma valley, as is we'll known, is an exceptionally favorable locality for cantalouFe production, and recog- nizing this fact, Mir .yon offers to ham, de the crop for fifteen per cent of the gross returns. He stipulates, ho&ever, that not less than 150 acres must be planted, and specifics as the time 10 plant, on or about April 10. Mir. Lyon will furnish Rock Ford seed of his own raising at SI.50 per pound. He sug- gests that by planting at that time the local crop will be ready for shipment in June. and could thus be marketed between the Rocky Ford and Imperial seasons to good advantage. AS a start CT in extensive cantaloupe growing it would seem that MT. I.yon's offer is an advantageous one for the Yuma val ley people and will most likely be ac- ccDted

lncendiary Fire.

A startling alarm of fire last Satur- day night about S;30 brought people in- to the streets and caused no little ex- citement. The source of the alarm was the public school building. Hose companies Nos. and responded promptly. but as usual, +, F. Sanguin- etti and his fire brigade were first to reach the scene to do effective work.
 The fire was first discovered by Jim mic Polhamus, and both he and Mir Sangninetti agree that there was very strong evidence of incendiarism. At the southwest corner the weather boarding had been pried loose and a fire deliberately started on the sill. The fire ran along the sill east and north, charring the timber and boards, but being of redwood, did not break into blaze and but little damage was done, Had the timbers been of pine the building would probably have been destroyed, or at least very badly dam aged. Why tiny one should want to destroy the school building is mys- tery, but there is no other way of ac- counting for the origin of the fire.

Report of Manager as to Develop

Following is synopsis of the report of the Hecla Consolidated Company's property, located in the Cabez& Prieta Mountains, Yuma county, by w. C.. Tonkin, ice-president and general manager:
 Los Angeles, Cal, Jan 25, 1907. To Our Stockholders:
 Sometime has elapsed since you re- ceived $ letter giving sn account of the progress being made on the de1elop- hent work at fhe mine. No doubt quite few are of the opinion that little, if any, work has been done since oar last advices, especially during the hot sum- mer months; the reverse, however, is the case. We had several contracts out on both shafts and tunnels that were pushed continuously all through the hot weather, and since the middle of September our force has averaged over twenty men.
 We will outline the extent of the de- velopment to date on the several claims; this will give the principal workings, and does not include the shallow shafts and other development on a number of claims, varying in depth from twenty to sixty feet, done for the purpose of annual representation work, and which in numerous instances make a good showing, both as to the opening of per- manent veins and value of ore exposed
 Commencing on the exteme north our work has been confined to one claim, the Balsz No. ?, on which has been driven an adit drift for tunnel on the vein) a distance of 325 feet, in pay ore the entire distance; from the bot tom of this drift we are sinking shaft which is now at a depth of 65 feet. We have well defined walls with width of vein averaging T feet; this ore is high grade, carrying considerable copper glance and good gold values. Three

Bad Location for "Flre Alarm"

The .own council is being subjected to considerable criticism for locating the tower for :he electric fire alarm so far away from the business center-at the corner of Second street and First avenue. The best place for fire alarm is where people do most congre- gregate. and that is on Main street, where there is always somebody to hear an alarm and act upon it. day or night. The most natural place for an alarm to emanate from is the engine house-fire headquarters. Why change it from there? One of the greatest 0b- jections to the place selected is that it is too near to he changing bells of rail- road engines and an alarm of fire at times would not be readily distinguish able on that account. The council ought 10 reconsider the alarm proposi- tiOn.

 It is our purpose to sink this shaft to a depth of 200 feet as quickly as possi- ble, and before drifting to any extent laterally on the vein.
 At the home camp (formerlb the Cal ifornia-Arizona property the Tempe has drift 0fi the vein distance of 175 feet with an upraise to the surface; at distance of 76 feet from the entrance a winze has been sunk to a depth of 110 feet; this connects with the lower workings, which consist of q cross-cut tunnel through 136 feet of hard country krock to intersect the vein, and drift along the vein 90 feet. All the vein 1 development is in good ore, many places, as for instance in the winze, the gold values are high The copper in this vein takes the form of chalcopy- rites. I almost overlooked mentioning winze that we are sinking below the lower tunnel tbat is now down depth of 50 feet
 On the Mountain Belle claim a drift has been run on the vein 45 feet on 4- foot vein of good ore. The best news we have relative to the development of this section of our property is the com pletion of the Stewart crOss-cut tunnel. At distance of 326 feet we cut the vein, and find that while the driving of this tunnel was a long, hard, tedious piece of work, yet we are amply repaid in that our judgment has been vindi- Lcated and vein of ore exposed that can be mined at the minimum of ex- pense.
 Our well has not progressed very fast the past 60 days; we have made a  change in the operators and anticipate no further trouble At depth of 800 we drilled through 8 feet of copper ore carrying gold values that in banning made good showing; @e
 On the south group formerly the Heclay we have put the Bueno shaft to ] depth of 290 feet. A. 80 feet in the shaft we have drifted both was on the vein ct t!se southwest 142 feet, and con- nected with shaft we sank for purpos- es of ventilation; to the northeast we have drifted TO- feet; the contract is to 100 feet On this latter drift. All these workings are in good ore, much of it high grade. Eleven hundred feet to the southwest we have another shaft 200 feet Geep; this has been sunk on large, open vein containing good cop per values. From the bottom of this shaft we propose cross-cutting to inter- sect two parallel veins which are very promising on the surface.
