REMARKABLE ORE DEPOSIT IS
 FOUND.

YUMA, Ariz., Sept. 25.-Thc Mys' tery is the name which J. Porter Moi. felt has given to new lead discov. cred on the Thumb Butte company's property, in the Castle Dome district, this week. Jack Huffman. the Thumb Butte superintendent, went down five feet on tho new strike, and will await the returns of Los Angeles and Den. yer assaycrs before doing further work on it, because of the perplcxing nature of the ore. That 1t runs from t4 to $l2 gold and l5 ounces silver, Huffman knows, but what it is which gives the ore a bright applc'green color, and which turns the clothes of the work. men and their tool handles to n deep scarlet, Huffman Is unable to detcrm. inc. Local assays failed to reveal the character of tho ore, which is remark. ably stained. To start with, it was ono of more than fifty quartz lodges which the surface of the Moffett camp reveals. One may stand at any point
 within the GAO acres comprising the Thumb Butte eompanys twenty.onc claims, and count more than twenty of these quartz lodges, all of which appear to bc gold bearing, and many of which contain rich copper glance. For this reason many experts who have visited the camp the last few weeks have reached the conclusion that although it is a vast copper proposition the camp contains more gold than cop. per, and that eventually gold win be the chief value of the camp. One of tho claims on which the company has begun to sink gives great promise in gold. Mohett located it because he found specimen of some size which ran 80 cents to the pound. He is using n monument set up on the claim forty years ago by two men who found hat full of gold nuggets on it, and who attempted to walk to Yuma-a distance of thirty'Avc miles over the dessrt. They left a note at the camp, saying they had struck it ricn and had gone in for supplies. A week later their bodies were found, where they had pcrished for water. The gold lay be. side them, and 1t was divided by their partners, who never were able to 10. cate the rich lead. Moffett is sinking near their monument. The Thumb Butte people call this property the Lone Star. Close to 1t they nave two claims, called the visalia Nos. 1 and g, which yield a silver.gold ore and no copper--a quality of stun not found elsewhere in the camp. Probably the policy of the company will be to first sink on the Filipino shaft, which at no feet beds In n deposit of ore run. ming 6s per cent copper and ego gold MoFett thinks he is through tho cap rock and into the ore body. It is true that nc is In ore worth t20O, but a great ore body lies $50 to 800 feet down, and that it will carry an increase of gold And dsersase of copper.

were it not for the forbdding influence or
the Earl of Warwick all her ladyship's
splendid properties would be made over
to the state and her ladyship would boldly
reneunce all titles and distinctions that at
present, in a measure, act as species OF
barrier between herself and the common
people.
Some have said that Lady Warwicks So
cialistic work is only the passing fad of the
moment: that she will soon tire of her ef-
forts at uplifting the downtrodden and
that before very long the world will forget
that Lady Warwick has ever had anything
to do with the socialistic movement.
These remarks come more or less from
the woman opponents of the gifted and YER
satile countess. Women are seldom par
ticularly lenient toward each other. 1t Is
for this reason that if you ask women trade
unionists, suffragists and representatives OF
other women organizations what they
think of Lady Warwick and her social
crusade you will be met by very signih-
cant shrug of the shoulders, or else, per-
haps, candid statement that Lady War
wick doesn't count much in these things"
~
Be this as 1t may however, the fact re-
mains that Lady Warwick is making her
influence felt in certain lines of social en-
deavor A beautiful woman is always a
power. and when she makes an appeal in
public no matter what she advocates, an

vocates free meals. higher wages, better
conditions of life and all sorts Of good
things for the poor, the poor are with her
to man.
During a recent visit to London Lady
Warwick attended number of socialistic
gatherings and delivered some stirring
speeches. She is a fairly good platform
orator and knows how to command an au-
dience At one of these meetings. held in
Memorial Hall. Harrington rect, she was
accompanied by many leading socialists.
On the platform were H. L. Hyndman,
famous as being the friend of Garibaldi,
Mazzini and other great patriots. H. Quelch,
one of the unemployed leaders and editor
of Justice also Endorsed the countess pro-
gram.
In the course of her recent speech making
tour the Countess of Warwick had a good
deal to say concerning her own position in

years past, she stated. she has been in SYM

A few years ago Lady Warwick Joined
the Social Democratic Federation. When
she sent in her application to that organ
lzation some question was raised as to
whether a person of title should be admit
ted to membership For some time "Citi-
zen Warwick's' fate hung in the balance.
Finally, however, the socialists agreed to
admit her to comradeship.
With reference to her views on various
social reforms, the countess recently said:
1T seems to me that all measures Of So
cial reform should begin with the children.
The greatest scandal in England in my
judgment, consists in the fact that while
we give free education to children, many
of them are forced to attend school and to
have facts drilled into them though they
may lack sufficient food to carry on their
studies The new bill introduced for the
purpose of compelling public schools to pro-
vide free meals for children will do much
to alleviate condition which is certainly
terrible one in England. 1t is hOrrifyir

and place it where 1t belongs. The exodus
of the agricultural laborers from the soil
and their crowding into the great cities is
one of the principle causes of many of the
social evils of the day.
In a word it might be said that Lady

of the house of lords and the complete

It might be inferred from what she has
said with reference to the making of gov

does not go to this extent. On this point
she recently said:
