With the death of Gen. Alexander
Z. Stewart at Biloxi, Miss, this week.
only one of the many lieutenant gen.
erals Of the confederacy is left among
the living. This Is Simon Bolivar
Buckner, who received Grants famous
unconditional surrender" message at
Fort Donelson, aad gave ever that
fortress TO the federal troops.
: Stewart graduated from West Point
in the same class with Pope. Rose
Grams, Newton and Longstreet. He
commanded division at Shiloh, and,
like Buckner. was prominent at Stone
River and Chickamaugha. At the
latter battle II was his division OF
Hoods corps that broke through the
federal center on the first day, and
argely contributed to the rout that
followed. At the close OF the war he
was commanding the confederate
Army Of the Tennessee.
Buckner. now the ranking confed-
crate general, 10 now 80 years old.
Besides his civil war lighting, he was
with Scott in Mexico, being brevetted
for gaIlantry at Cherubusco and Moline
del Rey.
On the northern side Gen Q. Howard
il the ranking officer surviving. He
was only major general, the north
not giving the higher rank as prodi-
galIy as did me south
IL IL a coincidence that Howard was
during the later campaigns Of the wal
at the head OF the federal Army Of the
Tennessee Another notable northern
general now living is Gen. DAME
Sicxles, who lost a leg at Gettysburg
Another surviving major general is J
Warren Kiefer the well-known Oni'
politician, whose division was rrCmin

The officials Of the Oliver iron MID
ing company plan to use steel and iron
wherever possible in place OF wood In
their properties. Captain Charles Ire
zona, who is well known to most OF
the leading mining men, OF the range,
and VINO Is experimenting the Oliver
company's operations on the Vermil-
ion, has been named as one OF the COM
mittee OF three TO inspect the corpora
tions various properties on the several
ranges, with view to ascertaining
where iron or steel can be used TO ad-
vantage. With timber available for
mining purposes rapidly disappearing
and gradually becoming more expen-
siye, the officials feel that they will
sooner or later be compelled to use
steel for general construction work
where timber is now used.
Mining men do not believe that 1t
would be possible to use steel for under
ground work TO the same advantage
that timber is now used. but the time
will likely come when change will
lie necessary. The steel sets, although
heavier than timber. could probably be
handled rs cheaply, and put in position
as quickly. as they would be of uni
form size and not too cumbersome.
The question is one that has received
serious consideration by mining offii-
calls. but but the use OF steel as sub
stitute for timber underground has not
yet been given a practical test.
Discussing the matter an Ishpemine
mining man said II have for some
time past been OF the impression that
the mining corporations will eventually
be obliged TO use steel In a great many
places where timber is now consumed.
bat doubt very much II steel can be
used to as good advantage underground
as timber.
During the past few years the mining
men have realized that there will bs
before many years scarcity Of timber
in this region. and that they must us'
10 AS sparingly as possible. Most o.
the principal structures now being
erected are buiIt OF steel and there viii
be much OF 1t used from this time on

Will Install Machinery and Commence Extensive De-
 Velopment Work.

PRESCOTT, June 2S.-Good re- ports continue to come in from the Sink to Rise mine in the Copper Ba. sin district, being owned by E. Block The new working shaft is being pushed down as rapidly as possible It is now 90 feet deep and the ore body shows continuous from the grass roots to the bottom. The ore is chalky substance, with iron sul- Dhides disseminated through it. san ples, S to S20 to the ton in gold and carries 24 per cent aluminium Re cent concentrating tests snow values of $l00 to the ton in concentrates.
 Being the only ore of it's charac- ter in those parts, the mine Is now attracting wide attention Numt CTS of miners and prospectors visit 1t weekly. All who examine its work ings closely pronounce 1t the most peculiar mineral they have seen in the territory. Several prominent mining men venture the opinion that 1t will develop into one of the larg- est producers of the northern q E. tricts of the territory.
 The group is located 12 miles south of Prescott in well timbered land watered section of the noun tains. The owner, who returned from it recently, is confident that it will develop into a world-beader. He intends to install heavy machinery lat the shaft later and will develop it from every hundred foot level as the shaft is being sunk

OFFICER DEL LEWIS
 LEASES BEER GARDEN
Popular Night Officer to Follow Peaceful Pursuits of BuSi-
 neSs-RemodeIed,

Officer Del Lewis will probably abandon the strenuous life of a pre- server of the peace to enter the peace ful pursuits of business. This big and popular officer has secured 9 five years lease on what is known as the Beer Garden, located on Naco Road. and will remodel it into an up to date and first class place of amusement.
 The lease was signed yesterday by the officer and Peter Hanson and wife, the owners of the place. The lease does not call for possession un- til September, but it is probable that the transfer will be made before that time. It is the intention of Officer Lewis to thoroughly remodel the plare, both the building and the sur rounding walls, light up the place with electricity, provide a dance pavil- lion and good music and in fact fix up a pleasure resort at which the bet ter classes will feel at home.
 Tn addition to q bar. all kinds of soft drinks will be served. The best of order will be insisted on. and the officer says that he is going to be the official "bouncer." Those wao know 1ris size and his experience on the DO lice force of the city have no doubt of his ability to take care Of the would-be bad men" who sometimes try to raise rough houses at pleasure resorts. tz.zi

WEEKLY SHOOT AT THE RANGE
 OF RIFLE CLUB
The 200 and 500 Yard Tar gets Were Run Up and Prac- tice was LiveIy-000 Range Up for the First Time.

The happy family turned out in force for the regular weekly shoot gentle breeze was blowing and it. was cooler at the rifle house than in town.
 The 20n and soc yard targets were run up at one time and the practice went merrily on till Snodgrass start ed his score on the mid range with a close center. his second sighting shot was bulls eye, and the same for the first three on score. The spec tators realizing a good score was be- ing made, then the white disk showed for the fourth time; breath lessly they waited for the last shot but Snodgrass was in good form and with another bulls eye. five straight, making the possible of 25 out of 9.
 Then was run up for the first time the 800 yard target, 12 by 6 feet, with a S6 inca bull; the general opinion was that the size was all right but it was too far away.
 Hurst fired the first shot and got a black bird, then the way the shots dropped around the bull in spired every one, for. they remem- bered their first experience on the 300. Lyon was high man. making a bulls eye on his first shot; he then missed the target, but got back in the 3 for his last sighting shot, and start ed his score of 46.
