father would be blow from which he
could not recover.
1t came at last to Rigby that he was
not the only one in Chicago who held
the secret. Other members Of the bar
had been warned long before the news
came to him, and it was morally GER

matter, now that he was prepared to
hear the worst of James Bansemer.
Rigby's heart stood almost still. 1t
meant that some day he. might have to
expose Graydon Bansemers father. 1t
meant that he might have to cruelty
hurt his friend. 1t meant that he
might lose a friendship that had been
one of his best treasures since the
good old college days. The mere fact
that he would be compelled to watch

like darkest treachery to Graydon, even
though the son should not become

semer lounged there in blissful con-
temptation of a roseate fate, all the
more enjoyable because his very. ease
was the counterpoise of doubt and I'M
certainty. No word of love had passed
between the mistress of the web and
her loyal victim. But eyes and blood
had translated the mysterious, voice
less language of the heart into the SIM
plest of sentences. They loved and
they knew it.
After leaving Rigby at the club Gray
don drove to the north side, thrilled to
the marrow with the prophecies of the
night. His heart was in that little room
off the library-and had been there for
months. 1t was the abode of his
thoughts. The stars out above the cold,
glittering lake danced merrily for him
as he whirled up the Drive. The white
carpet of February crinkled and creak-
ed with the chill of the air, but his
heart was hot and safe and sure. He
knew that she knew what he was COM

voice was soft with the promise Of

and clasped as she stood to welcome

the little throneroom. His tall frame

his voice turned husky. 1t was not as
he had planned. Her beauty-her mere
presence swept him past the prelimi-
nary fears and doubts. His handclasp
frightened, and his face drew resistless-
ly to hers. Then their hands went sud-
denly cold.

medium whereby it was operated.
In 1897 the Copper King began oper

workings. 1t is below the Custom

the northern side of the canyon. Be

ated at Solomon Springs, southeast OF
Bisbee. for sometime, and although
more or less copper was uncovered, it
did not prove mine.
The Cochise began operations in
Dubacaer canyon shortly after, and
was operative at intervals until the
panic of 1907. Although it touched
the rich Dividend and Rucker claims
belonging to the Copper Queen. its
search for copper was attended by in
different success; probably it was too
far beyond the fault and Ore-bearint
.carboniferous limestones.
About the same time, in 1899, the

eran miner of this vicinity. put u
shaft down over a thousand feet and
proved that the property was POI

associates acquired the property and

the Superior & PittsbuTg group.
The Lowell, now belonging to the
Copper Queen, was owned by Thomas
Higgins and associates. Fred Fenner

one Hanchett, who organized the Low

holdings.
The C. & A has history well
known as that OF the Copper Queen.
For the first few months of its history
as a producer it yielded more nigh

practice during the past ten years.
They can build plants which will be
very much more modern and in other
ways superior to those of the Smelt-
ing trust, and they can operate some
of the new plants in conjunction witt
the large copper mines in which they
are Interested. The decline in Amer
can Smelling stock, therefore, is not
a bear point on the -cOppers. Amert-
can Smelling stock is weak because
of the determination Of the Standard
Oil and United States Steel people
to go more heavily into copper bust
ness even than thev nave been in ia
past. This means that these most
successful business men see a great
future for copper and copper mining
and smelling investments. Therefore
the holders of copper stocks should
not sell out because American Smelt-
ing declines, but should add to their
holdings on such declines as the one
now under way.

RAILROAD PRESIDENTS ARE
 REMINDED OF CITYsS GROWTH

Photographic slips. illustrating the building progress of Montgomery, have been sent to the president of every railroad operating in the State of Ala bama. by Secretary Dave, of the Com- mercial Club. Secretary Dave Is de- sirous of bringing forcibly to the minds of all, not only the actual pro- gress that has been made. but also the potential development as shown by the present development.
 The Commercial Club, states Mfr. Dave, wishes the president of every railroad to realize not only that Mont- gonlery is growing. but that 1t Is vital. ly interested in the growth of every other part of the State.
 He ventures a prediction that in the next ten years the development of the resources of this State will exceed the development during the same period of any State of the Union, and believes that the railroads will reap great bene- it from the tide of progress inevitably surging forward.

CHARGES THE JURY
JEFFERSON JUDGE URGES EN-
 FoRcEMENT or LAWS.
Names of Country Clnb Members Who Played Golf on sunday VIII Go te the Grand Jury of
 Jefferson County.

Birmingham, April e-(speciaL)-- the grand jury for the criminal court. April term, was organised today anu charged by Judge A. c. Howze.
 The charge gave special attention 10 the prohibition law now in enect m Jefferson County.
 The judge also called attention to the law in regard to the speed limit for automobiles, treatment of convicts and many other subjects. F. W. Dixon was appointed foreman of the jury. v
 The judge called attention, after speaking of the things required under the code. to alleged and reported dspre- dations on timber lands of tho Ststs. There will be a thorough investigation into this matter if the instructions are observed.
 It was learned today that among the matters to be presented early before the grand jury will be the names of ( number of men who are members ot the Country Club and who were seen playing golf on Sunday. It is stated that Chief Deputy Sheriff Lucfen Brown secured eighteen names yesterday and twenty-two on the previous Sunday. A few weeks ago. Judge Weaver deciar ed the law prohibiting golf playing on Sunday as unconstitutional, but there was no appeal and the sheriff asserts that as long as the law Is on the stat utes, he will proceed against those who persist in violating it.
