WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. 7.-In his humorous way John Sharp VII hams of Mississippi. pooh-poohs the talk among soufherners of him as the democratic presidential nominee in 1908.
 You nay say1 for uo that I have decided not to take the presidency. % declared Mir Williams.
 No, will not deny that have had Rn idea of accepting the place. for I believe it is about time for some re- turning sanity in the neighborhood of the White House. But, as you know. I am man of family. and we have several small children. Mrs. Williams and have talked the matter over and it is her opinion that the atmosphere of the White House Is too damp. Some of the children might take cold. So. out of deference to Mrs Williams. have decide not to take tbe place.
 Mind you, now put it on that ground. It Is not my fault. I should have no especial objections 10 it. so far as I am personally concerned, but Mrs. Williams Wal not hear to ft. She says she feels sure that Kit and Sal lie would catch their death of cold up there in those cellars"

CENTRAL MINING CO.
 WILL SPEND S3O0,O00
Property Consists of Eight Claims, Mill Site In Saddle
 Mountain District,

The Central Mining &s Developing company expects to spend $3OO,OOO 10 the immediate future upon the deyel- opment of their property, all Of which means a great deal to the district, About three months ago a strike Of well nigh phenomenal richness was disclosed upon what is now the Two Queens property. s. D. Gardom made a strike upon this property, discover ing gold ore assaying $200,OOO to the ton. He gathered this ore from three places on a ledge, 300 feet long and from four to twelve inches wide, which runs through the Two Queens group of mines. So rich was the surface ore that Gardom feared footing and kept the location of the finds a secret. After. wards watch was kept upon the prop. erty night and day.
 The property consists of eight claims and a millsite, in the Saddle Mountain district lying in the Arizona Copper field which extends from Je, rome to Bisbee.
 There are four parallel veins each from two to twelve feet in width, each with numerous spurs and feeders. and one other prominent vein crossing these parallel veins at an angle of 45 degrees. Thirty-four test-hole open ings have been made Since the first strike. all of which disclosed paying ore. Assays on ore seems to be in unlimited quantities. As stated, cn the vein the assays run. as high ss s2cO, GOO per ton. The silver in the ore runs from fl to 190 ounces pei ton, and copper from to 10 per cent the copper alone being in sufficient quality to pay for the cost of mining Mining experts agree that all the veins must converge at depth into an i'm mense ore body.
 The ore is principally free milling quartz interspersed with calcite. A Italc-gawge lies between the ore and wall insuring easy mining. The for nation is porphyry dykes, similar in character to the formation at Gold field. and Searchlight. Tn fact, the en tire formation is proving to be identi cal with that of the richest Nevada gold districts.

OLD COPPER RELIC.

A. Abraham, proprietor of the Broad way hotel, has on exhibition in the hotel office a copper brick which has an interesting history. The metal iE solid block of copper matte which was unearthed in excavating for the foundation of the Abraham block, in the rear of the Centennial building. In the early days of Silver City MT. Ab- raham's father conducted large mer- chandising business in the Centennial building and the rear part of the block now occupied by the new Abraham building, was used as a corral. In those days Silver City was the trad ing point for nearly all of southern Ari- zona. and a large business was car ried on by the elder Abraham with ali this vast territory, including Clifton, which at that time was just coming into prominence as e copper producer. The Longfellow mine was just begin ming to be operated and the copper matte from the crude furnaces then in operation, were loaded on the empty freight wagons on their return to Sil- yer City and from this point shipped to Las Cruces and then to the nearest railway point in Kansas, where it was shipped thence by rail, to the eastern re1neries. Tie matte wa9 unloaded in the corral at the rear of the Cen tennial building pending it's transfer to the freight wagons which were to haul 1t to Las Cruces. This particu- lar piece of matte was evidently cover cd over with rubbish while it lay in the corral awaiting further shipment, and it has lain thus for thirty years. The piece weighs upwards of 100 pounds, and Is almost pure copper Silver City Enterprise.

The following is taken from the Tucson Star of Saturday morning:
 The engineers and firemen at the works of the HelYetia Copper Mining and Smelling company, in the Santa Ritas, thirty-tnree miles southeast of Tucson, went out on strike yesterday, together with all the miners and oth- CTS, numbering in all l50 men, in the employ Of the company.
 This strike has been brewing for some days and as Manager F. B. Close would not aceede to the demands of the men for an increase in the daily wage and shorter hours the inevitable came yesterday morning.
 There has never ben any trouble before, but the present demand, it is conjctured, was brought about by the recent voluntary increase in wages made by the Copper Queen company at their mines in the Bisbee district and at other points.
 ''It appearing in the afternoon that trouble was likely to arise, Manager Close and Deputy Sheriff Mills dis patched messenger on horseback to the Twin Buttes camp, distance of twelve miles, with instructions to tel egraph the sheriff's office for immedi- ate relief as the company officials were unprepared for the emergency that was threatened.
 The messenger made the ride in good time and communicated with Sheriff Pacheco, who summoned Under Sher- if Henry Meyers, Charley Odell and two other deputies. The party accu- mulated yeritable arsenal, jumped into a conveyance at o'clock and were soon underway to the thriving mining camp.
 Deputy Sheriff Mills was at the camp, but alone he felt unable to cope with the situation. The dispatch of the messenger was therefore deemed advisable as the quickst method of coming into communication with the sheriff, who acted promptly in the premises"

MOTHER MAKES LAST APPEAL
 FOR SON
Efforts Being Brought to Bear Upon Governor to Save c. c. Leigh From Hangnan'S Moose In Mohaye County

What will be the final effort to save c. C. Leigh from the hangmans moose is to be made this week by Attorney Leroy Anderson, who Is go- ing to Phoenix from Prescott to see Governor Kibbey, the latter part or this week. and lay before him evidence to show that Leigh was insane when he riddled the body of Jennie Bauters with bullets at Gold Road in 1904.
 For several days Anderson has been in Mohave county interviewing those who knew Leigh just before and aiter the murder and securing affldaylts' which tend to show that Leigh was at least temporarily insane when he com mitted the bloody act.
 This evidence Attorney Anderson will personally bring to the attention of Governor Kibbey the latter part or this week, furnishing sworn state ments of a number of reputable peo- pie in Mohave county, who believe Leigh was mentally unbalanced.
 If Attorney Anderson succeeds in convincing Governor Kibbey that Leigh was not in his right mind when he shot to death woman or the half world, whose attentions 10 other men had made him insanely jealous, the result will probably be the communication of the death sen tence to life imprisonment in the Yuma penitentiary.
 Leigh is said to nervously await the efforts that are being made to save him from death on the gallows. He constantly asks for news, demanding s-,f1 aI rf hsa ress that is being made to keep him alive until a natural death ends 1t aLi for him.
 That he has not already been hung, Leigh owes to the heart-breaking fight his mother has made for him. From the moment of his trial, con viction and sentence. a proceeding that took but three days, she has been working night and day for son with bloed-stained hands.
 Mrs. Leigh has been in Phoenix twice to see Governor Kibbey- The rest of the time she has been in King man, not far from the doomed cell in which her son awaits life or death, pleading with all whom she meets to help her in the battle with death for her boy.
 Leigh was to have been hung in December, but in the evening before the day of his doom, Governor Kip bey granted a reprieve of thirtyfiye days to give Attorney Anderson time to gather evidence in support of the insanity plea. This reprieye will ex- pire in January, and if the death sen tence. is not changed to life imprison' ment Mohave county will have hang ing.
 Leigh's character previous to his association with the woman he mur- dered is said to have been good. Coming to Arizona from California he fell in with evil companions, and was easily won to their dissoluje manner of living.
 Jennie Bauters, whom he slew, lived in Jerome, where she conducted a house of illrepute before going to Mohave county. She died leaving an estate of several thousand dollars, which has passed to a son whom she had given thorough education with money she earned in her scarlet life.

BEAUTIES OF A

He hears that there has been a hair pulling al the Jenkinses. One eye and stray finger picked up on the front porch by the ice man led to the conclusion that he racket might have been out of the ordinary. The reporter knocks. No reply. He knocks 6 little louder with the same result. He sneaks steathily around and peers in at broken window pane expecting to see badly disarranged when the old lady sics the hired girl 'on him, three dogs, two small boys and billy goat go after him and he comes away with more information than clothes.
 He is informed that there is a son of Moctezuma in Pirtle who died with tortilla between his teeth at the hand of treacherous dagger wielder. lie rides forth to ascertain the facts. Its "Quien sabe, To no SC, y no senor" all along the line. Even the weeping Madre of the murdered tamale masti- cator would give out no information and after a hard days work he re- turns without even ascertaining the euphonious name of the deceased, much less the christian handle of the assassin.
 He goes forth to the smelter. He asks a man what that big casting is for. The man tells his to see the foreman He sees the foreman, who advises him to see the superintendent. He sees the superintendent who tells him he doesn't know.

 He finds the Colonel with his heels tipped up on tine composition mantle, tgo-bit Mexican between his teeth, while a roll of saw dust stock is Iolling out of his ulster pocket.
 He is terrible to look upon and the heart of the poor little reporter thumps and pounds like the old gas Iengine at Nacozari, but the ordeal must be met and disposed of Would that be had died of summer com plaint in his mothers arms.
 When finally approached, the mighty manipulator. grows sullen and mysteyious and announces that he has nothing to announce.

ENGINEERS ARE ON STRIKE AT
 HELvET|A
Tie Up Mining Operations and a Hurry Call Was Received In Tucson For Additional Peace Officers.

TUCSON, Jan. S.--Not a word has been received here today from Hell yetia where a strike of the hoisting engineers is in progress. Late yesteT- day afternoon a special messenger ar rived in the city from Helyetia, bring ing a message from Superintendent F. B. Close to Sheriff Pacheeo, asking for protection.
 In the message it was stated that the holsting engineers had gone on q strike and that many of the Mexican miners were drinking and it was feared that serious trouble, which might result in loss of life and de- Structson Iof uroperty, would break out.
 Sheriff Pacheco at once sent Under Sheriff Meyer and Deputies odell and EScoYosa to Helvetia.
 Owing to the fact that Helvetia Is more than ten miles from telegraph or telephone communication, it was impossible to learn anything today about the situation there.
 It is supposed, however, that the officers have the situation well in hand, as they were given instructions to send in mounted messengers for additional help if the situation there was found to be serious.
 The difficulty occurred several days ago when the hoisting engineers de- manded more pay. They waited upon Superintendent Close and stated that they did not think they were receiy- ing enough pay. Superintendent Close declined to grant them an advance in wages and they struck, tying up the mine. ... -. .
 Orders were immediately sent out for otheE eng1nesrs, who were se- curd without difficulty. Thursday night one of the new engineers was held up by a party of masked men while at work and threatened with death if he did not cease work.
 Yesterday when the Mexican min. CTS were seen to be drinking consid. erably, it was decided to send to Tue. was feared that the strikers might in. Ieite the miners to strike and get them to destroy company property.
 At Helvetia there are two regular deputy sheriffs, Mills and Turner These officers, with officials of the company and the additional officers sent out from here, should have the situation well in hand.
 Superintendent Close. in his letter to Sheriff Pachoco, stated that the difficulty was not over the organiza tton of a union, nor. was it a strike of the miners. He state that the hoisting engineers did not have their demands compiled with and conse quently went on strike and sought to keep new engineers from working There are about 250 men employed at Helvetia, and general strike should one be called, could easily be come a serious matter.
