Fractious Horse Plays Havoc with
 Digit of Deputy Treasurer Davis.

NurIng broken thumb and VOW ing that he will not do any more hunting or campaigning this year, Deputy County Treasurer B. C. Davis arrived home from Mayer late Mon. day night.
 Guess l got what was coming to me, the popular deputy treasurer said as he softly caressed the right thumb after the fracture was reduced ny surgeon. "No more hunting for this boy this year. After the county election is over l may take a shot at something before the city election in January, but l will not look for any more birds before November B."
 Between earesses of the injured right thumb, the popular deputy treas. urer admitted that quail were more plentiful than Democrats in the Mayer country. He was in the act of hitch. ing his horse when the animal ierked its head, suddenly catching Davis thumb in the rope and dislocating the lower joint. A part of the flesh was torn loose.
 In spite of the painful injury Davis attended 10 his usual official duties yesterday. He has no fears of serious results from the injury.

RICH SILVER ORE REPORT
 ON HOME PAsTIME

KINGMAN, Oct. 20.-s. A. Tyler, who came in from the Golden Eagle mines Thursday last, is enthusiastic over the big showing of ore in the Home Pastime mine. He says Prisk 4 Co. have easily s75,0oo m sight in their lease and are opening up more new ore every day. The boys have their drift in nearly one hundred feet on the ore body, which will run above 300 ounces of silver as it is broken down. The ore also carries values in gold. The boys have small holster on the mine and have little difficulty in mucking it out. Their partner, Per du, has gone to Los Angeles on ac- count of failing health, but expects to be back within a few weeks to help take out the ore when stopes are open. ed.
 Work is to be resumed on the Night hawk mine within the next few days, the company naving settled down to business. IL is 10 be hoped that the company having settled its differences and getting down to business. It is to be hoped that the company will sink the shaft to a considerable depth

WALKER DISTRICT
 RECEIVES MORE BOOSTING

Walker district is among the most prosperous sections of tae county, ae' cording to the statement of w. l.. Conner, who arrived here yesterday from his camp at the Eberhart mine. The Eberhart mine is one of the oldest locations in the Walker district. II was taken over under bond by Conner and associates few months ago Since its development was started by its new owners several shipments or ore have been made that netted a handsome profit after mining, smelt' ing and transportation expenses were deducted.
 "The paystreak in the Eberhart va ries from twelve 10 eighteen inenes, v Conner said yesterday 10 Journal Miner representative. "All of the ore is in the shipping class and the mine is showing better with every foot of development. Another carload ship. ment will be made soon.

 Telephone lines have been construct cd connecting ranger stations with the headquarters of the forest, in order that fires may be reported and prompt ly extinguished During the fiscal year ending June 30, 1908, $500 miles of telephone line were constructed in the national forests.
 Just as rapidly as possible. each national forest is supplied with shov. els, axes, and other tools, whic1 are distributed over the forests and cab ins, and tool boxes are placed 3 to 30 times, according to the experts.

These southern business men fore. see great manufacturing future for their section and are determined to instill their ideas into the minds of others. Taey point out also that the usefulness of these rivers can be in. creased no, only for manufacturing, but for transportation.

COLE RYAN CROWD
 OWE PARADISE ATTENTION
CFrom Thursdays Daily)

BENSON, Oct 2l.-It has been learned that the Cole Ryan crowd will in the near future send prominent mir. ing experts 10 examine the work done three years ago in the Chiracahua mountains within nalf a mile of Para. dist, by the Chiraeuhua Development Company, now known as the San Si- mon Copper Company, in which Messrs Cole and Ryan are heavily in. terested.
 This work consists of a shaft 800 feet deep, from the bottom of which is a tunnel $500 feet long. Several other tunnels have been run, and ledge of iron ore about GOO feet wide, carrying a small per cent of copper, was proven to be in the property. The total expenditure represented about s45o, ,oO0.
 Now that small mining promoters are doing little, the big operators are more active than ever, especially the Cole Ryan people, who number among their more prominent interests large holdings in the C. ( A., which recent. ly paid for several rich copper gol groups north of Benson, and is now said 10 be arranging for property west of this place in the Silverbell district. Having recently acquired control Of the Sierra Madre railroad, the vast lumber concessions of Colonel Greene in Mexico; also his mining interests in that republic, aside from the Can. snea holdings which they Aad pre-. viously secured, there seems no doubt that this concern will be the grestes. operator of mines on the American continent, and second only to the liar rimsn railway systems in developing Mexico.
 The operations of these gigantic in terests which are now being actively evtended north and west of Benson, will be an important factor in the flu. ture growth of the junction town, ~bien is point through which all communication must pass from south and east Co the north and west.
 Mr MeGee was ou. 10 La yantia mine while Superintendent Young, wns in town to get fuel, and reported that the miners just after the superintea. dent left struck rich vein of lead carbonate ore two feet thick

He reaeh. ed the mine without mishap an hcrr later.
 Mulvenon knows every trail is tas Bradshsws. In his official career and since, he has travelled over the route where he lost his way more than kfty times. Returning to Hooper from ;hs Blue Bird, he saw the tracks of aim. self and horse in the snow, where both had crossed the old TuscurAbia trail in their wanderings dnring the storm more than dozen times.

GLOWING REPORTS
 EMANArE FROM sYLvANIrE

HACHTTA, x. M, Oct. I7.-Sylvsn. ite the latest gold camp of the south. west, is now about two weeks old and has a population of over 150. Promi- nent mining men from all the leading camps of the west are coming in daily and want miners, and leasers are now at work on the ground.
 The deepest shaft in the camp is on the wake-rp- Charlie claim, operated by Sol Camp. former superintendent of the Elk'on mine of Cripple Greek. It is now down 60 feet and SHOWS rich telluride ores and free gold from the surface down.
 The distinct feature of the camp is the fact that shipping ore occurs from the grass roots down, making at n very desirable field for leasers and one in which mines can be developed and placed on paying basis with very limited capital. Most of the ore ship ped and that now being sacked for shipment runs from $50 to over $500 per ton, and assay returns have shown values running over $lOoo per ton.
 From the present outlook leasing will be the general policy of the camp, number having been already let and more are being given every day. The extent of the mineralized area so far as known is about four miles in notherly and southerly direction, hut about three miles in east and west, additional claims being staked out daily.
 Among the mining men now on the ground are the following: w. c. Me. Bride, superintendent of the Sierra Cobra mine, controlled by the Phelps Dodge interests; Horace Pomeroy gem eral manager of the Black Mountain Mining Company; B. M. Pattison, su. perintendent of the Denn. Arizona mine of Bisbee; F. L. Harrington, mining engineer of Bisbee; C. l.. Jones, repre- sen,ing l.. c. shattuek, Joseph Mul- helm and others; Charles Flynn, rep resenting Bisbee capital; Leonard Loehr, foreman of the Lowell mine of the Copper Queen at Bisbee; A. K. Kearns, mining engineer, Cananea; w. 4. Soule, formerly engineer for the Superior & Pittsburg Copper Company, of Bisbee; II. W. Jorgensen, of Bis bee; II. II. Warburton, former master mechanic at the Junction mine of the Superior & Pittsburg Copper Company of Bisbee. Colonel Cleve Van Dyke has charge of the new townsite of syl' vani,e. This morning a reh strike of telluride ore was uncovered on the Skyseraper claim, one of the group un der option.

district, Conner declared that there was more high grade ore in signt there now than at any time in the history of the district, which is the oldest organ. ized mining district in northern Ari. z0na.
 "A shipment of ore averaging bet ter than slO0 to the ton in gold was recently made from the Griffin claim and the lcssces are now engaged in mining another carload lot
 "At the Pine Mountain mine there is now over 900 tons of ore on the dump and the Pine Mountain mill is being repaired for steady run.
 "Davc Booker, who recently return. cd from an extended visit in Missouri, has started work on the New Century and is opening a very promising body of ore. He will soon be numbered among the shippers of the district.
 Morris Cump and Vie strom are also doing well on their claims. They have large tonnage of sulphide orc on their dump, some of which is in the shipping class"
 Concluding, Conner said that every miner in Walker now at work was talk. ing que ore, good portion of which will pay handsome profit after ex. penses of shipment to the Fl Paso smel,crs.
 Conner left on the afternoon train for Idaho Springs. Colorado. He will meet his sister, Mrs. Frank No1on, at Ash Fork, who is accompanying the remains of her husband 10 Colarod for interment.

moRoccAns USE LOVE chAaMs


Mrs. Mansel- Pleydell writes Of the
curious charms used by the women of
Morocco: Moorish women resort
much to charms to gain lovers or to
keep their affections when gained.
There 10 one charm which u seldom
known to fail. II consists Of shred
ding . small piece Of m undergarment
which the man has worn and. after
certain incantations have been said
over It, Of rolling the particles into
the shape Of . small ball. This 10 en-
bedded in . larger ball Of clay and, aft
er being slightly danpened, It 10 kept
in . pot over the embers of live char
coal. have been assured that as
soon as the heat penetrates the clay
the man. whoever he may be. will lay
aside whatever work he is doing at
the time and hy to tie arms Of the
woman who invokes the charms. AS
long as the ball is kept warm SO long
will the heat OF love burn in the
heart Of the lover for that woman.
Another spell much resorted to is cast
by cutting on the tips of donkey's
ears, cooking them and mixing them
in the mans food. He then becomes
as foolish as donkey with love for
the charmer who has provided his
unsavory repast."
