B|SBEE-ExTENSIOh
RESUMES OPERATIONS
Marks Beginning of Activity In
That Section of Warren
District.

Work on the Bisbee Extension be-
gan yesterday with force of men
under the superintendency of George
s. Young The force, though smaIl,
consisting of four men, will be aug
mente6 as fast as development work
demands.
The Bisbee Extension property has
been interesting the people of Bisbee
for some weeks past, especially as it
was reported that an important deal
was being consummated.
During the latter part of November,
W. A. Yawkey, maintaining Offices in
New York and Detroit, reported to
be worth something like S20,000,000,
accompanied by his mining engineer.
F. r. Poss, and other capitalists, spent
several days in Bisbee and visited the
mining property. They had been in
duced to come here by Fritz Harring-
ton and Charles Clute to look over the
property, and as the result of their in
vestigation has never been given out,
it is not known to the stockholders
here in Bisbee. The instructions COM
ing from the east which caused the l. T.
sumption of work on the property
would seem to indicate that the deal
has gone through and that the eastern
capitalists have assumed control of
the property. II is stated that $780,
900 is the sum to come from the east
ern buyers, and this amount will be
placed at the disposal OF the manage
ment to continue operations.
This renews the mining operations
in that district west of Bisbee, and IL
is believed that 1t viii be continued
from now on. There are number of
stockholders here in Bisbee who will
be pleased to learn of the resumption
of operations, as they are anxious to
see the development of the property
advance. There are about five hun
dred acres comprised in this property,
which is considered very promising,
and which should make one of the
best in the district.
In that district, also, the Modern viii
soon be resuming operations, as a
deal has been made to begin active
work. The Modern has been worked
from time to time during the past
seven years, and some good machinery
has been installed on the property.
This shows well for the mining dis
trict surround ng B.sbee, and proves
that new activity is in our midst The
opening up of the two companies as
sures more of the payroIls In this
city which have made Bisbes tSe
greatest mining camp in the south

c, L, Jones Left Yesterday For
Copper Properties Located
In Old Mexico.

advantage, and We feel that We are IN
good shape, as far as having a good
property is concerned. We have not
closed down at any time, but have
been forging right ahead. There are
several good properties adjoining US.

Southern Mexico.

John Wesley, of Bisbee,. is the proud
possessor of a beautiful alligator skin
which he captured on a recent visit
to Mexico. The saurian was a mag
nificent specimen, weighing $50
pounds. The skin measures nine feet,
eight inches in length Wesley killed
the alligator Christmas day while
crossing the Trinidad river, about
the state of Oxaoa.
The creatures are almost bullet
proof, owing to the density of their
skin. This one was shot with a ..45

back near the neck and broke the
spinal column, but did not kill the
animal. Alligators prove very danger

not an exception to the rule. After
much exertion and labor oD the part
of the hunters, it was loaded into q
small boat
1t was considered too dangerous a
cargo by the Mexicans, who refused
to travel on the same footing with
such a passenger. The boat was
soon turned toward the shore, where
the Mexican crew was not long in
despatching it with their machetes.

in the skin of the saurain which was

(BY ADELAIDE BUFFUM.)

And many
Begun.
All, How many pages there, were wet with tears?
How many Souls had passed and hearts had feared
For what's 20 come?
They all traced there those pages wide
The aching hearts. and the Souls who cried
Only Gods will,
Be done"
They thesmany births the year had brought,
The many places, where there were blots
OF tears unshed.
They the Souls the World had known,
They saw the Souls of purity fun blown,
Which Angels thus,
Had lead
They saw it ALL traced there within this book
Writ with the hpen of Truth, which the year took
From out of life
And the shadows deepened, the starlight fell
Across the book of Hfe--the year wrote well
(Which endeth thus
With night)
The many Joys and sorrows thou hast laid
Within door,
Go:-breathe thy last upon this earths domain
Go;-spread thy rays of joy and not of pain
Before thou art
No more.
Let thus the blessings of Gods great love
Shine forth unto ALL from Heaven above
(Beneath the sky).
All! Dying year." good bye. Farewell to thee,
The Worlds last words shall only be,
Good bye old year,
Good bye!"

HUNDREDS OF
POSTAL CARDS
ARE HELD HERE
Many Christmas and New
Years Greetings Held BY
Order of Uncle Sam-Read
the Reasons Why.

The rigidity of the postal laws is
causing many disappointments this
year, as well as a great deal of extra
work on the past of the postoffice
force. There have been huRdreds oil
Christmas and New Year cards drop
ped into the postoffice which never 60

letter Office. where they win be de
stroyed. There will be hundreds who
have been thoughtful in buying a
Christmas card to send TO relatives
and friends who live far beyond Bis
bee who viii be disappointed If they
look over the basket fun of cards
which are held in the postoffice they
may find them there awaiting the re-
CURED postage.
This unfortunate situation works a
hardship In three directions, TO the
sender, to the one to whom it is adj
dressed, and to the force in the post
Office, who are caused a considerable
about Of extra work. 1t comes about
in this way. In sending holiday cards
many are enclosed In transparent en-.
velopes which are not stamped, but
. the card within bears the stamp. This
The postal laws distinctly prohibit.
The stamp should be placed ON the
outside of the transparent envelope
Just as any ordinary envelope is stamp
ed. Otherwise the card is retained in
the postoffice for postage and after
two weeks Is sent to the dead letter
Office.
The question is asked, Why isn't
the card sent on 70 the destination
and postage due collected theregs
This is prohibited by the federal laws.
which are applicable to the postal de-
parSment. IL one is sent it is through
mistake, and IL You are called upon to
pay for postage of a card sent to you.
remember that YOU are more fortu-
nate than the one who never had the
opportunity of receiving his by paying
the postage
Also remember that you cannot send
a card OF greeting which has tinsel
Or any kind of paint used for painting
flowers or any other decorations.
These must be placed in an envelope
and the envelope properly stamped on
the outside. Do not stamp the card,
but stamp the envelope. You cannot
even stamp the card and cut hole
through the enYslope, which seeming
ly places the stamp on the outside.
The requirements nave caused corr
siderable confusion. as Is vas thought
in the transparent envelope that a
stamp on the card which could be
seen through the envelope was suf-
ficient- As matter of fact, it makes
cancellation OF the stamp impossible.

SEN. CRITTENDEN SPOKE
Against Bill to Increase the
Fertilizer Tag Tax,
LOST BY VOTE OF 27 TO 16

Grave Situation COnfrOnts District
Agricultural Schools. and Friends
of the Institutions Are at Loss
TO Know What Will Be Done
With Them.
By a vote of 81 to 16 the state
senate has killed the Martin bill
passed by the house last year which
provided for an increase of the price
of fertilizer tags from 10 to 25 cents,
and which was looked to as the only
means of providing funds for the sup
port of the eleven district agricul-
tural schools and the state agri-
cultural college at Athens.
The vote came on the motion by
President Flynt to disagree to the
report of the agricultural committee,
which had recommended that the bill
do not pass. The president left the
chair and led hard fight on the
floor of the senate, but in vain.

ORCHID INSURED FOR 900
What 1t Means to Have a Liking for
Most Costly Flower. A COIlec-
ton Valued at $75O,OOO.


Not long ago it was related in the
newspapers that at a flower show in
London a single orchid was sold for
$4,000. To most people it seems
not only improbable but utterly i'm
possible that one little plant should
be worth a small fortune, yet it is a
still more astonishing fact that the
same firm of florists which sold the
orchid had in the show another plant
on which they carried $4,000 in
surance.
What makes orchids so frfghtfully
expensive is the enormous outlay
that is necessary to find the rare
species, the exquisite delicacy of the
care that has to be taken of them
and the difficulties attending their
propagation. Many lives are lost in
the collection OF orchids. Swamnv
Jungles and reptile-infested forests
are the homes of the most beautiful
OF these strange blossoms and that
means, OF course, that danger lies
on every side of the collector. Weeks
are spent in floating down South
American rivers on RATS and keen

which may hang from trees arching
over the water. Often it is ueces-
sary to cut the tree down and tow

der the massive towers of Windsor
Castle. Once he sent to her late
majesty, Queen Victoria, basket of
orchids valued at $4,000. This en-
thuslast has more than 800 green
houses devoted to orchids alone.
A Well-known firm of orchid deal
ers whose place is near London had
very strange experience some time
ago. They sold an orchid to p
wealthy iron merchant for 1915. and
1t turned out to be such a splendid
specimen that it was actually divided
into ten parts by its owner, eight of
which realized altogether $4,000.
Hearing of this the firm which sold
the orchid in the first place desired
to buy back a portion of the DIant
but had to pay $4,000 for one small
Iplant.

From the Savannah Press.
There have been two Cassandras
who predicted all sorts of evil be-
fore the people of the country. The
one stood behind Chairman Bell in
Denver the other day and received
an ovation before they knew what
he was going to say.
Captain Richmond Pearson
HobsOn declared that he would
not venture to make an address
did he not feel it his duty to do
so, and deliver himself of the
truth as he believed he saw it.
He then began at some length
to lead up to a discussion of the
japanese incidents of several
months ago at Vancouver and San
Francisco. In concluding his
address Captain Hobson de-
clared that if the democratic
party was successful in the cleo
ton he believed that it would.
before the end of four years,
have a great foreign war on its
hands.
A chorus of mingled groans rolled
through the hall and there were cries
of mo! no."
Phen Captain Hobson went on to
say that President Roosevelt had de-
clared in his presence that there was
great proba ability of war with Japan.
The presidents private secretary has
since denied this statement and de-
clared that CAPTAIN Hobson must
have been misquOted.
The man who predicted a foreign
war is not as bad, however, as the
man who intimates that we might
have religious war. Hon. Thomas

Captain Richmond Pearson HobsOn.
