ICAPITOL GROUNDS
 ANNUAL DATf CROP
The Harvest Is Now Practically Over and the Fruit is Safe Under Lock
 and Key

Superintendent George H. Smith of the capitol grounds has harvested the territory's annual date crop. all but q few punches which Were but poorly fertiliZed and which he has, left on the trees for the purpose of noting the re- suits of a further ripening. Concerning these there will be further announce- ment later. unless some one steals them. This is hardly feared for to be- gin with these dates are not really good to eat just now and what is more i'm portant It would be painful to know that there is anybody so wicked as to steal dates. especially when they are guarded by deputy sheriff.
 The crop totalled about twenty large punches which were cut into two and sometimes three smaller punches for convenience in handling and curing. Part of them are of the yellow and part of the red varieties. there being a distinct difference in the flavor of the two classes. They are ripening very fast now that they have been removed from the trees and when fully matured will be packed and disposed of where there will do the territory the most good. Many will probably be sent to Washington, some perhaps To Europe and otherwise distributed among the officials and scientific men of the country. so the fruit will really be a valuable advertisement of the terri tory. Aside from its service as a con stant advertisement during the months 1t IS growing it will be used in large measure to let the world know some thing of the possibilities of this par ticular infant industry of AriZonl.

A KELVIN MINING MAN
 JOINS THE BENfDICIS
Mir. J. Jay Sullivan and Mrs. ]. T. White Were United in Marriage.
 Tuesday Evening by Judge Phillips.

very quiet wedding was consum- mated Tuesday evening when Mir. J. Jay Sullivan of Ray and Mrs J. T. White of this city were joined in mar riage by Judge Phillips. The wedding occurred at the home of the brides sister. Mrs. Robert Fromm at 5l2 North Third street. and was witnessed by only the mean relatives of the couple The affair was not known to many till yesterday morning and the newly welded couple preferred to keep the happy event secret till they depart the latter part of this week for Cali fornia on wedding trip.
 However the happy occasion is now made known and Mir. and Mrs. Sullivan are receiving the congratulations of their many friends. The bride is well known in the city. has been a resident for about five years and for three years conducted the Ashland place on the Tempe road. She is a woman accom- plished in the arts of the home making which Mir. Sullivan, who has been delving in the mining districts of the territory. will no doubt appreciate and find satisfaction in partaking of well prepared repasts under his own vine and fig tree. Mrs. Sullivan has many friends who will extend best wishes.
 The groom is a gentleman not at all caring for great publicity. in fact he is inclined to go quietly along getting rich and saying nothing about it. He is one of the pioneers in the mining district of Kelvin and is interested in number of promising properties in that section. Mir. Sullivan along with Mir Twitchell came to that country a number of years ago and stayed with the mining business and has prospered thereby. Mir. Twitchell not a great while ago joined the benedicts and now Mir. Sullivan follows the trail blazed by his friend and fellow mine owner. that he may not be behind in acquir- ing the most of life's riches. MT. Sul- livan has had to do more or less with seeking after the big strike. and test ing the fineness of the ore. but with out doubt-though his friends may not have given him credit. as he went along so quietly incorporating and electing himself president-he is a competent judge of another kind of ore a woman's heart and has struck native and pure gold.

ity at the mining camp. but if the rail- road builds along the river to the point where the mining company can meet IL with the narrow gauge, the Saddle Mountain company will construct and operate a shelter of 600 tons capacity on the river directly below the present site, and convey the ores by an aerial tram from the mines to the shelter. IL il said that the company is drawing up plans for the new big smelter and will go ahead with the work as soon as the Southern Pacific finishes the line. which now seems probable.
 IL would really pay the road to do so il seems, as at the present time be- cause of the shutdown. the railroad is losing an average of S13,O00 per month in freight receipts. It can be readily figured what the probable receipts of the railroad would be if the Christmas mine operated on a 600 ton basis in- stead of 200 tons as heretofore. There is some other losses from the lessen ing Of population in that district and the consequent losses from freight re- ceipts for supplies consigned to these people. It is however believed that the present problem will be solved and that the mine will in the near future be operating on a larger basis than ever before.
 In the meantime a comprehensive plan for future operations is being formulated, plans which will be so thorough that when once in operation. nothing short of most extraordinary conditions will cause suspension again. This property with its huge bodies Of self-fluxing ore though low grade. has demonstrated quite effectually the pos abilities existing there. It has been developed to a large extent and better ore and more of it has been uncovered as work progressed and despite the great expense. amounting to perhaps g. per ton on coke for the hauling alone from the end of the railroad to the mine has made ends meet till the de pression ir copper, from which cause il is now necessary to mine on basis which will cut off all possible expense in transportation. the cost of which Is alone a bag profit. During the year 1906. despite the shutdowns due to floods and coke shortages. there were produced, at the Christmas mine near :. .33s, ,492 pounds of copper. with some gold and silver. the total value of which was in the neighborhood of si7O.5li.ss- It can be readily estimated what are

THE CHRISTMAS MINE
 WAITING DEVELOPMENTS
Planned 70 Build 500 Ton Shelter on New Site If Railroad Completes the Two Miles Of Track.

IL is reported by good authority that the Southern Pacific now has a corps Of surveyors in camp in the Christmas district and that il is probable that when their work is completed that the company may extend its line along the grade to the point. to which the Sad dle Mountain Mining company has built. a narrow guage roadbed for the transportation of ore and coke and Oth- er supplies. So far the railroad has made no official announcement of its plans but from a semi-official source it is learned that the improvement is contemplated. The importance of this addition 10 the present line can not be over estimated and means a great deal for the Christmas mine and the entire country adjacent.
 The public has manifested more or less interest in the conditions at the Christmas mine during the past sum mer and several erroneous reports have been published. Investigation by the Republican reporter reveals that the mine has stopped all work and dis charged everybody, retaining but about F men to look after the mines and smelter and their equipment, and is also retaining the members of the staff in all about 20 me.n. It is said that il is out of the question to operate at Jhe present price of copper and at the same time to continue to haul the coke by wagon from Winkelman to the mine. IL is not at all likely the Oper- atiOn will begin again unless the Southern Pacific Pacific extends it's railroad to the end Of its present graded roadbed. which is only two miles from the mine. and to which has already been constructed narrow gauge road-bed The Saddle Mountain people have all the equipment neces- sary to construct and operate a narrow gauge railroad, which they have pur- chased in anticipation of the building of the line by the Southern Pacific

 The wholed istrict and those adjoining will quickly feel the influence Of any new plans in operation by the Christ mas mine and the situation will bright en up in the face of a sagging copper market. which it is believed by most mining men will in no great time begin the upward climb to al least fair price.

AMERICANS ON LAND
WEYLER ONCE HELD
By William E. Curtis. Correspondent
OF the Chicago Record-Herald.

Camaguey, Cuba, April 14.-During
the war for independence in Cuba the
Infamous General Weyler built what
he called the "trocha" from sea to
sea across the narrowest point of the
island to prevent the insurgents in
Santa Clara and western provinces
from reinforcing those in Puerto Prin-
cipe and Santiago. In other words,
he wished to cut the revolution in
twain and divide the revolutionary
forces. He did this by digging an
enormous trench, which was protected
on either side by several lines of
barb wire fence with thorny cactus
and other plants between. A block
house at every kilometer the entire
distance was filled with armed men
and supported by fortifications: and
there was railway running from the
port of San Fernando on the north
to the port of Jucaro on the Carrib-
bean sea. by which troops could be
hurried from one point to another
whenever an assault was made by the
insurgents. This novel and effective
defense was called the trocha, a Span
ish word meaning a pathway. At the
close of the war the distractions were
removed and the railway was leased
to an American company which re-
built and still operates It.
Several hundred American immi-
grants are now established along the
line, most of them growing fruit and
raising cattle, and they are doing well
according to common report. The
larger number compose a colony call.
