AN AUTO TRIP,

On yesterday mornings train from the south Andrew Nielsen returned from a business trip to Sasco. He was accompanied by several other gentle men who also have interests there and instead of taking the regular route, the party went on to Tucson Saturday morning and made the run to Sasco by way of Silver Bell. The trip going was a fine one, made in a little better than four hours, but on the way home the party had the elements to contend with and got caught the one of the hardest rains of the season. The ma chine stood the test well, but finally the mud got too deep for it and all hands got out and pushed. A short distance from town the auto gave up the ghost and the members of the par ty walked on in.

ACTIVITY Al THE
 TELLURIUM CLAIMS
Well Known Mining Man Brings En- couraging Information Concerning the District.

C.

The ore ledge widens with depth, as at the sur face it showed width of seven inches. and when a depth of fourteen feet was reached, the ore ledge measured four teen inches.
 The main shaft will be sunk the proposed fifty feet farther for the pur- pose of determining whether the ledge continues to widen, and also the quail ity of the ore body carried. After this has been done, active operations will progress more rapidly than at any time since the claims have been work ed
 MT. flakes is an old prospector in this section of the country, having staked a claim on the same ledge. as the Tellurium claims lie, but farther up the mountain and about three hun dred feet from the boundary line of the Tellurium claims. He is very san guine of the results to be obtained there. The Tellurium claims are locat ed at the base of the mountain, and MT. flakes has traced the same ore body contained in them, up the side and clear over the top of the mOun- tain. He is of the opinion that road way to the claims can be built much easier than following the present trail by which they are reached.

VISITED NEW YORK
 AND OTHER PLACES
But Fred Marsh Found Tempe Little
 the Best of Any of Them.

Among those returning to Tempe yesterday after spending the summer elsewhere, were Fred Marsh and fami- ly. The Marshes had as fine a trip as could be imagined and Marsh gain ed twenty pounds while away. They left here early in the summer, Mrs. Marsh and the baby stopping over with Mrs. Marsh's parents at Detroit while MT Marsh went on east and took in the sights of Little Old New York and every other place in that corner of the world worth looking at. On his way from Detroit he stopped over at Niagara and at Buffalo. He spent some little time in the city and enjoyed every minute of it. He was especially impressed with the facilities New York has for handling the i'm mense passenger traffic of the city and the subway caught his eye above all other things He says it is the best method of travel in the world and that there is less chance of accident in the subway than on any other car line in the city.
 He made New York his hea i,Iuart- CTS from July 1st until August 1st, though not all of this time was spent in the city. He made frequent trips to the dozens of big coast resorts with in short distance of the city. He yis- tied Atlantic City and practically all the beach resorts, not overlooking Island, thing everyone has to see to really feel that he has seen New York.
 Returning west again early in Aug ust he was joined at the Falls by Mrs Marsh and they took an extended lake trip. It was while on this trip that the most exciting incident of the whole summers outing occurred. The boat was caught in a terrific storm which lasted from midnight until after day light and many times during the morn- ing all hands felt that they were near eternity. After the lake trip they spent several weeks with NIT. Marsh's par ents in northern Wisconsin.
 Notwithstanding the fact that he had a splendid trip, MT. Marsh says that in all his travels he saw no place that looked quite as good to him for a permanent residence as Tempe and he is glad to be back again.

The newly welded pair will make Mesa their permanent home.
