thawing and had become a sop

cry, and the woman began a pa

forth into wild shrieks of terror.

of content, Billings passed the
child to the woman and dropped
to'the straw. Warmth, warmth,
he would soon be warm. He
threw it over him, burrowed in
it, and buried himself, all but
his face. hTen, with the return
of heat, came frightful pains,
and he groaned and thrashed
around in agony. The woman
took no notice. AS he tumbled
about, his hand struck some
thing and smashed it; he felt as
well as he could, with his frozen
fingers, and discovered that it
was an egg.
With horrible avidity he lick
ed his hand, sucked the straw,
felt around and found a dozen
more. Thinking nothing of
good or rotten, he crushed them
in his mouth, smashed them in
his teeth, and swallowed shells
and all. Six or eight he served
thus, then told the woman.

selfishness of the woman.

Indifference staggered him,
some way it assorted so ill with
the decorous gravidity of the
woman.
With weighted footsteps he
stood a moment bordering, then
directed his course toward the
barn. A dog came and looked
wonderingly at him as he ex-
amined the door; it was locked.
The dog came closer and licked
the bloody cloth around his leg;
then, as the man bent for
stone to smash the staple, bit
him. Billings cursed with hor-
rible profanity and forced his
frozen limbs stumblingly away.
The legs Of his trousers were
stiff with ice where the water
had frozen upon them, and be-

his wound. Sometimes he would

a heap of snow. Unthinkingly
he disturbed it, and below was

SHOULD HAVE A BRANCH MINING
CONGRESS HERE.
CFrom Sundays Daily,

rrom sundays Daily
what Prescott needs, in my opin.
ION, is branch organization Of tho
Mining congress-" said George Nit.
cheli, head of the Mitchell Mining Ga
operating in Mexico, to a journal.
Miner representative yesterday. Mr.
Mitchell is here ON mining business
The specific nature of which he declined
to discuss.
Inc benefits to be derived by n
mining country having branch Of
the congress cannot be overestimated. b,
he said. "The congress is now of in.
ternational scope. A branch is enti,l.
ed to representation in all the con.
gress conventions and the advertising
that can be given mining community
by its delegates at these conventions
cannot be equalled in any other way.
IL takes only fifty members TO form a
Mining congress branch OF n cost Of
$2j each.
1T appears to me that a county like
Yavapai, which produces half the gold
output Of Arizona, should nave fifty
men in IL who are enterprising enough
to organize such u branch congress.
AS the metal market situation now
stands n few metal buyers in New York
and Boston control the prices. In the
main, these men have no practical
knowledge Of mining smelling or the
treatment and reduction Of ores. The
practical and scientific men Of all
branches Of mining and smelling are
at the mercy Of the buyers when it
comes to marketing the product under
present conditions, and / state without
reservation that IL is time for tae en-.
terprising mining men Of this country,
the richest in mineral resources in the
world, TO organize and take the control
Of the metal situation out Of the hands
Of the few who now dominate il and
manipulate IL as they please.
Speaking Of present conditions in
Cananea, Mexico, Mr.. Mitchell said:
"Great improvements in the way Of
building railroads and improving the
plant are under way there. When the
camp starts again the appointments of
the smelters and mines will be as near.
ly automatic as possible and the Can.
anea Consolidated Copper company will
be in shape to produce copper at very
reasonable expense"
Mr.. Mitchell was formerly superin.
tendent Of the United Verde smelters
in Jerome. lie is recognized as one Of
the ablest smelter operators in the
United States, from n practical and
scientific standpoint. To him is due
the discovery Of the great possibilities
of the Cananea copper deposits and the
standing the place now has in the cop
per producing world is admitted by all
to be due to his enterprise and good
Judgment. Mr.. Mitchell will remain
here several days.
