FATHERS RECORD SAVES SON.

TRINIDAD, Colo, July 6.-Santiago Tafoya, who was sentenced to be hanged during the coming week for the murder of Pete Griego on March 1 of this year. has had his sentence com muted to life imprisonment.
 This was brought about by the influ- ence of number of Trinidad old set tiers, including Mayor D. L. Taylor and others, who interested themselves because of Tafoya's father, who was stceri1f of this county from 1868 to 1873, saved a party of seventeen Amer jeans from death at the hands of an angry Mexican mob in January 1868.
 Mayor Taylor. in an interview, said: ''Tafoya will not be hanged this weeL or any other. Governor Buchtel las commuted bis sentence to life iripris- Onment. Tafoya's father wac a brave man aTI the thing for which he is re 1embered by the old settlers was his splendid record as a peace officer and because of an event which took place in 1S6S.'
 The incident in which Tafoya's father distinguished himself was on Christmas day, 1867. when Frank Blue killed a Mexican. The news of the Oc- curence reaching the ears Of the na- tive Mexicans, they drove the settlers to an adobe house here. The doors were barricaded and every prepaTa- tion for a hard fight was made. Ia fOya ppeared on the scent. and per suaded the MeXicans to disband."
 The crime for which TafOya was sentenced to be hanged occurred at Sopris. Tafoya claimed self-defense. saying that he had been involved in a hand to hand struggle and that he fired to save his life. He was found guilty March 13, and sentenced by Judge Henry Hunter.

DEEP STRIKE AT

 which have recently been determined upon in the mechanical department is installation of condensing outfit for the power house. Order was placed last week for a 4,000-horse power out it which upon installation will reduce the cost of fuel consumed in providing shelter power approximately 20 per cent. Three months operation of the outfit will return it's cost. This in- stance of application of additional equipment of the latest and best pat tern is typical of the general program which is being carried through in all divisions to the end of reducing costs to the minimum and output to the maximum. Constant study of details and research for new things which can be used to important advantage is involved. The amount of work done along these lines under the pres ent management of Greene has been enormous. It is going on steadily and the reward that must attend in results is bound to make a decided change to the good in the appearance  of the cost sheets as time passes.
 The new No. electrically operated converter was blown in the first of last week and has since operated in manner giving the highest satisfac- tion, its work representing large i'm provement over results obtained from the old tsyle converters, which the electrically operated are to replace on the converter floor. The new con verters combine all the latest feat ures in their construction in addi- tion to the best previous practice. The result seems to be perfection. A second complete outfit Is here and will be put in commission as soon as pos sible. The two outfits represent two stands and eight shells.

TURsANs SOLVE RACE PROBLEM

WASHINGTON. July eff the ne grOes of the South will take to wear ing turbans and the long flowing robes of the Orientals the race question may be solved so far as the railroads are concerned. The suggestion comes from Secretary of Agriculture Wilson, whose genius in making two blades of grass grow where on had grown before. was called upon to plan a tour of four Hindu students through the South. The students, who are now the guests of the government, want to visit the cotton fields. but it quick ly developed that they were in dan ger of being forced to ride in compart- ments in Jim Crow cars provided for the negroes. As the young men are of high caste they could not be subjected to such treatment, and the outlook seemed desperate until Secretary Will son proposed that the Hindus lay aside their American clothes and wear their turbans and robes. So attired they are promised the best railroad and hotel accommodations.

to the figure. The side-saddle, is in every wap preferable because of the grip il gives in jumping, hunting or hard riding.
 Riding astride brings into use par ticular muscles not usually developed in women, and it is also very rough on the insides of the knees.
 From the horses viewpoint, also, the side-saddle is best, if it is re- versible. Ladies should learn to ride both right and left, and change about from day to day.
 The newest fad for afternoon recep- tions is the exclusive copyright of German countess, for no one is in- clined to take it up. It consists in receiving your lady guests while re- clining among scented soapsuds in your bath tub.
 The countess has her guests shown into the drawing room in the ortho- dox way, and dispenses tea just like the most decorous bishops wife. She retires for ten minutes, and then the guests are conducted to the bath room. The hostess there lies grace fully in the water, which is rendered opaque by soap, smokes a cigarette and chats with her admiring guests for while. After they have gone she emeTges from the tub and retires to her dressing room.
 The original lady's bath-receptions have caused a lot of gossip, which, Fh .~F kn queen, caused her name to be struck of the lists of those invited to meet royalty at court or anywhere else.
 Even princes have to submit to the unwritten law of nicknames enforced 3: every English boys school. Prince Edward of Wales, the future king of England, who has just commenced his course of training for the navy at Osborne naval college, is known among his fellowcadsts as "sar- dines."
 The derivation of this original nick name was explained by an Osborne cadet with what President Roosevelt would call @nature-faking as from young W(h)ales, therefore Sardines."
 Comenting further on the new ca det, the budding admiral said candid ly, He seems a nice fellow, but very cheeky. Hen get that knocked out of him, though" As a matter of fact, "Sardines" is already undergoing to cheek-eliminating process, for he was seen within a week of his entering the school on the floor of the dormitory being pummelled by another cadet, because he had been putting oa Iairs."

TWO QUEENS MINE
 MAKES GOOD SHOWING.
Most Satisfactory Develop ment Has Been Going On
 Lately.

PHOENIX, Ariz.. July 6.-Judge $. H. Snider. who is in charge of opera tions at the Two Queens mine in the vicinity of Winkleman, has been in the city for a few days and expects to leave for home today. He says the operations at the mine are proceeding with about the same force of men that has beeen kept employed since the beginning of development last winter and that results to date are very sat isfactory.
 As may be remembered from the reading for former articles, the earli- est development of a permanent na- ture was the starting of a tunnel at the lower side of the property and it's continuance to a point where it met a vertical shaft on the lowest edge where development was undertaken. This shaft is 145 feet deep down to the tunnel and a winZe below it is now down 60 feet further or a total yer tical depth on the ledge of POS feet. This winze is all in sulphide ore he says and recent essays gave values of $27.50 per ton iii gold and copper. The tunEel also runs into the hill 100 feet beyond the winze. It is in a very hard formation, but it's driving will continue until it crosses the larger or main ledge on the property This it is estimated will be 600 feet more, but when the ledge is encountered it will be at the depth of several hundred feet.
 The next deepest working is in what is known as the No. shaft some distance to the northeast of the work ings first described. This shaft is being sunk in the country rock and is down 150 feet where a working sta tion is being put in. It is proposed to cross-cut on this level to the two veins in which the sensational ore strike was made or the surface where one of them crops about two feet wide and the other from five to seven feet in different places. This cross cut it is estimated will reach the veins in 40 or 50 feet, depending on their pitch, which can only be guessed at until they are exposed.
 One of the things that brought the judge to Phoenix was to confer with the representative of a machinery house. The company proposes to at once buy heavy heavy machinery, with which sinking may be continued to the depth of 1000 feet.

The New York-AriZOna Gold and Copper company is now making prep arations to install the new fifteen horsepower Fairbanks Morse gasoline hoist which arrived a few days ago. Teams have been secured and the en- zine will be placed on the Louise claim, where some high grade copper ore, carrying gold and silver, has been discovered. A recent assay of sorted ore from the bottom of the shaft on the Louise assayed a total value of S642.75 to the ton. A contract has been let for driving a tunnel several hundred feet in the Lillian claim. This tunnel will crosscut the country at considerable depth. By work already done in the tunnel much good ore has been proven up. The Arizona Copper company is now installing a gasoline hoist in Gold gulch, west of Morenci, where they have struck nice body of rich ore, and it is reported that they will continue the electrical rail road through the mountain to the property, which will be great benefit to the New York-Arizona company and other companies operating in that district.

The Detroit Copper Company.

The Detroit Copper company, ope- rating at Morenci, and which is one of the big companies owned and man aged by the Phelps-Dodge people, is expending $1,000 900 in improvements. A considerable amount of the money has already been spent on the smelt- CT and it is one of the most modern plants in the territory. A trip to the smelter will convince one that every point of economy has been considered. The smelter is arranged so that the slag and copper is loaded from the floor into cars which are placed in a hole underneath and is handled but once. There is no evidence of fiue dust from the smelter and every pos sible waste has been stopped. The output of the company will reach the 20,000,000 pound mark. In addition to tho smelter, the Detroit Copper company operates an up-to-date con- centrator with an immense capacity and a new machine is now under course of construction. The Detroit Copper company has not been able to pay very large dividends in the past, but when present plans are consum- mated 1t will be good paying prop osition. Close to the D. c. smelter is located concentrator No. 6 of the Ari- zona Copper company, which is one Of the largest and best concentrators in Arizona It Is located on the hillside and presents a good appearance to visitors to that camp.
 The general appearance of Morenci has improved considerably during the past two years Many new and sub stantial structures have been con structed during that time.

The bank statement was poor but this seemed to have little effect and just before the close the high figures were reach ed. For next week. provided there is no bad news expect to see better prices for the good stocks. There is much better feeling and the short in terest Is considerable.

ment of Alex. veitch, formerly gen eral manager of the Arizona Copper
 ompany, is destined to be one of the big companies of this district. Accord ing to reliable information the com pany is now spending about Sz0,O00 monthly on development work, all from earnings and is employing in the nefghborhood of 125 men. The company is now shipping an average of 1500 tons of ore monthly to the Shannon smelter. the most of it com ing from the King mine. But upon the completion of the ns-v tram from the Antietam group and the new fur mace at the Shannon smelter, the out put will be greatly increased. Both the tram and the furnace are now un- der hesdway and will be in operation in a comparatively short time. Be
