when a friend of ours had a fine bird dog,
one of the best breeds known. Nearly
every morning when the man went TO the
barn where the bird dog slept, he would
find a large rat curled up between the
dogs paws, sleeping peacefully with its
strange friend. One would think that
animals of the kind mentioned would never
become friendly, but here are two cases
that we know what happened. so there
can be no question of the truth of these

The Beginning of a Fossil-H. H. Stone
barger brought to town Saturday a relic
of early days in this part Of Nebraska.
the same being the skull of a buffalo
which he had plowed up on his farm south
Of town. The skull must have been that
of a fine specimen of this former mon
arch of the prairies as It measured twelve
inches across the front of the kulI and
twenty-four inches from tip to tip where
the horns had been. There was a time
when It was a common occurrence to pick
up such specimens all over the prairies,
but that was many years ago, and this is
the first instance we have heard OF anyone
finding the remains of buffalo hereabouts
for many years. Mr.. -Stonebarger stated
that he frequently plows up bones which
he has taken to be those OF buffalo, but
this is the first time he has plowed up
a -skul.-shelton Clipper.

TO HEAVEN.

From Fridays DailvI
Detected in manner, and labOring I'M
der the hallucination that he was on
his way to heaven, Albert liefner, a
stranger. was found travelling IN
northerlv direction on the railroad
track on the Duke ranch, last evening
at SHUTDOWN, by H. H. Banta who es'
cortcd him to the +. & T.. junction and
later turned him over 20 the sheriff =
office on the arrival of the southbound
train. From letters found in his pos
session. il is believed that Hefner has
brother residing in Ouray, Colorado.
In his incoherent conversation IT was
learned from him that he left Bouse a
short time ago and was on his way to
Ouray TO Join his brother
when found by Banta at tne Duke
ranch, Heffner was engaged in prayer,
walking in the direction Of =. f.
junction. At first he was startled at
Banta's presence. After exchanging
greetings Banta asked him to accom-.
pany him to Prescott.
Heffner refused Indignantly TO re-
turn here, stating that he was on his
way 10 heaven and would not, under
any circumstances, mingle again in
Prescott society. lie then asked Banta
if he had six shooter and Banta re-.
plying in the negative, he next suggest.

refusal to become an angel forthwith,

his pocket, and seizing blade, tried
to sever his jugular. Banta immediate
ly seized him and in the struggle pre-
vented him from injuring himself out

With Banta in possession OF the razor
and blades, Heffner walked at rapid
rate along the track to trestle from
whicn he jumped to the bottom Of the
creek below. His right cheek was cut
in his second attempt on his life
Banta was then joined by another man
who happened along and they forced
lIeffner to accompany them 20 the
junction, four miles north. Arriving
at the junction, the sherih's Office was
notified and Sheriff Lowry ordered
Ban,a to bring HefYner here on the
train, which arrived ~ that time.
On the train Heffner told Banta
that he had sold n mine near Bouse a
short time ago and had torn up the
money he received, adding that he did
not care to take any currency with
him TO his heavenly home where the
streets were paved with gold. He said
that ne had been cruel man all OF
his life and that he wished 10 reform
now. When he stepped from the train
at the depot here, he asked for min

about TO knecl down, when taken in

COPPER BONANZA IN T10TREf
GROUP.
(FrsIs Fridays Daily)


Another big mining strike has been
made less than fifty miles from Phoe.
nix. Ore running from 40 to 50 per
cent in copper, with big gold values,
has been found in n shaft on the Fig.
tree group, owned by +. +. Whitney,
seven miles northeast of Gibson y sta.
ton, on New river, says the Phoenix
Gazette.
Mr.. Whitney drove into Phoenix, ac.
eompanied by his wife, last Sunday.
With him he brought sack Of ore
from the foot level of his shaft,
which Assayer Joe Parterie estimates
ran 10 per cent in the red metal, with
silver and gold running sl3 to SIS.
The report shows that there is any
amount Of this ore in the shaft. Mr.
Whitney says he has 100 tons on the
dump, which will average 40 per cent
in copper and $50 in gold. The gold
and silver, he believes, will more than
pay the entire expense of mining the
ore.
There are ten claims in tue Fiptree
group, part of which are not copper
properties. The quartz taken out Of
the shallow shafts which have been
sunk on the gold claims runs from
sl5 to $50 in the yellow metal.

men in the country told me that all
It needed was development.
"The gold claims are also rich. I
thing that they will prove to be fully
as rueh in gold as the Others are in
copper. ! also think that the gold
mixed IN with the copper will pay the
full cost of taking out and treating
the rock. The copper values will be
pure gain"
Mr. Whitney this morning took
piece OF rock TO Mr.. Porteric to be
assayed. Upon seeing the sample
brought him Mr.. Porterie's first OK.
clamation was, Good heavens, WHY
don't you bring a piece Of bullion to
