The Tucson Consolidated Copper

company is begging away with some trating it's energies at present on the Old Pueblo group. There the main shaft has reached a depth of l75 feet, and will be steadily pushed until a depth of 500 feet has been attained. It is a vertical one compartment shaft, and left the vein on which they sank l3O feet from the surface
 In spite of therrecent financi ,l furry and the tieing up of the available sup ply of currency in Tucson, the Christ mas rush at the postoffice this season has resulted in greater volume of business than ever before in it's his tory. Morning, afternoon and night the money order, register, package, general delivery and stamp windows are beseiged by crowds of people. The number of pieces of registered mail that are leaving Tucson, due to holi- day times, is 8 record breaker in the history of the city.-Star,
 And still settlers keep pouring into the San Simon valley. It is said that at least 75 families have settled in the valley during the past year, and that during that time enough more home steads have been filed on by single men to bring the total number of en- -.1 entering 16O acres, this estimate would place the number of acres settled on during that time at 10000. Notwith standing this large number of home steads, there is yet plenty of fine farming land to be had almost for the asking. Record.

Shelley Removed.

Governor Kibbey today (Dec. 21) removed District Attorney F. w. Shelley of Oochise county from office. notifying Public Examiner w. O. Foster to assume charge of the office. Shelley was wired of the governors action. This step is based on charges made by the Oochise board of super visors regarding Shelley sdrunkenness and his incompetency. In his order of removal Governor Kibbey states that it is for the good of the public service. Foster will go to Tombstone at once; it is understood that he will appoint D. W. Cunningham of Tomb stone to take charge of the office until the Cochise supervisors appoint Shell ley's successor Democrat.
 Fred Shelley is one of the best known young attorneys in southern Arizona, having been elected to the office of district attorney on the De- mocratic ticket at the last election by 6 large majority. He is "a royal good fellow" and wide circle of friends here and in Oochise county will deeply regret to learn that he is in serious trouble
 Mir. Shelley denies the charges and states that he will fight the matter to an end. He states that the super visors have no grounds at all for mak- ing the sensational allegations against him.

a LEssoN IN PERsIsTENoE

The First National bank Of this city has complied
with all the necessary requirements and has now been
formally made United States depository, the s5o,oeO
allotted to it by the secretary Of the treasury being now
on deposit The securing Of this deposit shows what
persistence can do The bank applied by letter for this
deposit and Secretary Shaw refused to give it. The Of
cals Of the bank however refused to give up at the
first rebuff
W. H. Darrough one Of the banks directors, thought
he could secure the Deposit he sent to Washing
ton to make the effort Meantime Dennis Flynn, Dele
gate Mcclure and Senator Beverdge had appealed to the
secretary Of the treasury the banks behalf but they
had all been refused But Mr. Darrough nothing daunt
ed, determined to see Mr. Shaw himself He did 50, and
after short talk the secretary called Of his clerks
and told him to draw up an order making the bank
depository
The little lesson to be drawn from this story is that
persistence is always rewarded If the citizens Of Vnita
show as much zeal and going after the
things that will build this city up Mr. Darrough and
the other officers or the bank did in going after this de-
postorY nothing Will be able to retard Vintas growth

Things That Can't be Done.

You cannot cure hams with a hammer,
You can't weigh a gram with a gram

Mend socks with socket,
Build docks with docket,
Nor gather up CLAIMS with a clamor.
You can't pick locks with a pickle,
You can't cure the sick with sickle,
Pluck figs from a Pigment.
Drive pigs with pigment,
Nor make your watch tick with a
tickle.
You can't make a mate of your mater,
You can't get crate from a crater,
Catch moles with a molar,
Bake rolls with roller,
But you can get wait from waiter
You cannot raise crops with a cropper,
You cant shave your chops with a
chopper,
Break nags with a nagger,
Shoot stays with a stagger,
Nor pop to a girl with pepper
You can't grow your beeyes from the
You can't catch the heaves from a

Get grains from a grainer,
Draw strains from strainer,
Nor cleave to your wife with a cleaver

A flats not Il thing that can fatter,
A pond does not ponder,
A wand will not wander,
And so that's the end OF our patter.
