Mammoth Meteor Fell at Prescott.

The worlds greatest meteor. if
statistics are to be considered, found
a home in the Jerome mining district
last week. The jerome Belt says:
THE weight of the Jerome meteor
is largely problematical, but eight
thousand tons would not be a wild
guess. 1t is forty-seveu feet long
and half that wide, with an unde-
veloped depth.
"The hole made in the earth by
the impact of this meteor is some
thing to be maryeled at. The de-
preston has a general resemblance
to crater, and a superficial glance
conveys the impression that it is
really the crater of a volcano which
became extinct ages ago. Biologists
however, will observe that the rim
around the crater-like depression is
not composed of volcanic outpOur-
ings. The hole is found to penetrate
from forty to eighty feet of red
sandstone, then from 80 to $50 feet
yellowish limestone, then a light gray
sandstone, and finally a brownstone
in which it termina tes."

Hieh Grade Silver Shown.

A small force is working steadily at
the Monte Cristo mine west OF Pres
cott, taking out some very rich silver
ore and sackiug it ready for ship
ment. They are sinking on the ledge
and some of the ore is almost pure
silver. Ore from other parts of the
claims show flake silver and occasion
ally copper sulphides. This mine is
on a hill that is cut by a great dyke
that can be traced for couple of
miles to both the east and west, but
so far as is known, no ore has been
found along the dyke that will assay
more than eight or ten ounces silver.
The owners of the Josephi mines
near Wenden passed through Wick
enburg last week on their way to the
properties which they purchased
about two years ago. For some time
nothing has been done on the claims
further than the annual assessment
work, but this winter a shaft will be
sunk and the property developed as
rapidly as possible.
Much has been done at the Amy
thist group also known as the Coch-
rane group, about twelve miles east
of Wickenberg. The work recently
has been to prospect the ledge and
considerable drifting has been done
at the 100-foot level, More tLan $50
feet of work has been done on the
property, and it has shown that the
owners have an immense body of low
grade ore. The deepest shaft is l60
feet. In d tunnel to tap the main
ledge a vein about eight inches thick
was found that run 16 per cent. cop
per, Sl1 gold and % ounces silver.
Several stockholders of the Copper
field mine arrived last week and will
make an inspection of the property.
1t is said that Manager f. H. Kline
will not do as much work this winter
as was planned, owing to the copper
slump A small force will be put to
work on the Billy H. group.
Secretary George Palda, of the
Unida Gold Mining company, arrived
at the mines to look over the prop
erty. Several changes at the mine
are looked for in the near future.
Drifting is now in progress at the
1OO-foot level of the Golden Elgle
Mining company's shaft. Nothing
has been found in the drift but low
grade ore, but there is plenty of it.
In the Shaw shaft on this property
several thousand dollars worth of ore
has been taken out In p asst years and
shipped to Ell PasO for treatment.
At present the shaft is half filled
with water which is soon to be pump
ed out and the shaft repaired.

In Every Department Of Banking the First Natl
a Of Clifton is Prepared to Serve You in
Satisfactory Manner

to more uses than ever and reports
that are received shows that the
trade in this line is brisk. News from
the east is to the effect that big sales
of copper have just been made by
the sales agents and this is strong
proof of the demand for the metal. -
After several weeks of speculation
as to just what would be done with
the Cananea-Bisbee property, bonded
about year ago to the Thompson
brothers, of New York City, by the
owners, it was learned definitely that
the latter will retake possession.
The reason for the action is that the
Thompsons, it is alleged, have not
fulfilled their part of the agreement.
The tract composing the Cananea-
Bisbee property lies in close proxi-
nifty to- the ground of the Greene
Cananea company, and belongs to P.
]. Tehaney and j. w. Hardy, of Can
anea, and NJ. J. Cunningham, of Bis
bee. About year ago Cunningham
made a deal in New York City,
granting to w. B. Thompson and j..
E. Thompson, of Hayden, Stone &
Co., bond for the sum of $500, 900, to
be made in partial payments at speci-
fed times. The easterners imme-
diately became active on the ground,
sinking several shafts at different
points, it being the intention to
prove the ground as quickly as possi-
BILE. In several of these shafts ore of
a good character was found, and ac-
cording to all indications the ore
body was very extensive. Several
weeks ago the holders of the bonds
asked for an extension of time on the
next payment, which will fall due in
December, but the original owners
were unwilling to grant this, and
operations were discontinued tenn
porarily. According to the terms of
the contract, it is understood, the
ThompSons were to eXpend so much
money d month in actual develop
ment work or the property would re-
vert. 1t appears that this clause of
the agreement was broken, and the
original owners will take possession.
Four thousand feet of development
work has been done by the Thomp-
sons. p. J. Tehaney stated that as
yet nothing definite had been decided
upon for the future.

Arizona Cowboys in the East.
| Chicago dispatch says:

~ OnlCdgO ulSpdICn says.
| "Two cowboys from Arizona eacl
armed with two revolvers, compelled
more than twenty-five men to line up
against a building at Thirty-third
and State streets shortly after 10
o'clock one morning. The cowboys
were arrested and taken to the Stan
ton avenue police station. They gave
the names of John Thompson aged
twenty, and Howard Ryner aged
eighteen.
"The power of the two revolvers
that each carried was so great that
in fifteen minutes thirty men were
standing with their backs agasint a
building and their hands reaching
for the clouds. The cowboys would
have prolonged their ''joEe" had not
Policeman Walsh of the Stanton
avenue station interrupted them.
Walsh found a long line of men,
among whom were several negroes,
holding up the building, with Thomp-
son and Ryner dancing about them,
each fourishing a loaded revolver.
''Walsh drew his revolver and COM
manded the cowboys to walk in front
of him. They offered no resistance.
"They were locked up on charges
of carrying concealed weapons.
"The cowboys told the police that
they arrived in Chicago from Arizona
shortly after midnight and visited
number of saloons on the south side,
where they had numerous drinks.
The prisoners exhibited surprise
when they were told that it was a
violation of the law to carry a re-
volver.
"'We did not mean any harm,'
Thompson said, I'VE were out for
little fun, and after we had lined one
against the wall we kept adding an
other until we had quite crowd. 3"
