The El Tiere is Good Payer.

No property in the entire South
west is better known than that of the
Lucky Tiger Combination company,
Familiarity called Ell Tigre. 1t is locat-
ed twirty-two miles east of the sta
ton of Ysabel, on the line of the
Nacozari railroad, running from
Douglas, Arizona, to NacoraZo, Son
ora. A good wagon road connects
the Tigre with the railroad. The
company was organized March, 1903,
with $4,000 shares of capital stock,
par value SO. The purchase price of
the property was SS5O,Oo0, United
States currency, of which $3.50, GOO
was paid in stock at par, and the bal
ance, 100000, by the sale of the re-
naming 10000 shares in the public
market.
Comparatively no development
work had been done on the mine at
the time of this purchase, and on &C
count of the location, scarcity of la
bor, etc, months elapsed before work
of a really substantial nature had be-
gun. A bitter legal contest, lasting
over three years, retarded active
work, yet today they have thousands
of feet of development work done,
and an estimated ore reserve of near
~ ten millions of dollars. A small
concentration mill has been in active
operation for some time, and together
with the hiph-Crade ore produced,
the shipments are today aggregating
an approximate net value of $50, 600

Dangerous Fire
Started Friday

The paid and volunteer fire de-
partment again demonstrated its
ability yesterday morning in the way
of coping with a serious situation.
An alarm Of fire was sounded at
800, and in what seemed almost in
%stantly, Chief Swasey had three lines
of hose laid and the water playing on
the flames. The conflagration start
ed either in the rear of the old Green
Front dance hall or the building
formerly known as the Oaks on Co
roma venue and is believed to have
been caused by a spark blown from
one of the nearby stove pipes, as
there was no fire of any description
In either of the two buildings. 1t
was but an instant before the Green
Front was in flames and with the
high south wind blowing it seemed
that the town was doomed. The
volunteers and paid department then
showed their mettle. They fought
the flames face to face, never finch
ing or thinking of personal injury
or danger and with the slight shift
ing of the wind, stopped the flames
before they could penetrate the
building adjoining on the south.
With the shifting of the wind the
building on the north burst into a
mass of flames and here again both
fire fighting organizations proved

their worth, for by this time it was
blowing a perfect gale to the north.
The fire vas confined to the burning
building and a small cabin, directly
in the path of the flames and at a
distance of about five feet from the
"Oaks," was saved.
The buildings were owned by J..
V. Stewart and S. r. Moore and com
pany and were a total loss. Mr.. Stew
art placed his loss at $4,000 and Mr..
Moore estimated his loss at $500.
There was no insurance.
Immediately after the fire it was
rumored that the two men who slept
in the building owned by Moore,
were missing, and it was thought
they had lost their lives in the fire.
A search failed to reveal any bodies
and when the searching party had
completed their task both men made
their appearance at the scene.

NOT ARRESTED FOR DEBT.
Regarding the contention of Rick
ey's attorneys that the law pertain
ing TO his ca sc is unconstitutional, in
as much rs it expresses more than
one subject and matter properly con-
nected Herewith, the court says it is
only necessary under the constitu-
tional provision as to the subject
matter and titles of statutes, to ex-
press in the title the principal sub
iect embodied in the law, while mat
tiers properly connected Herewith are
not required to be mentioned"
In conclusion, Judge Langan said:
THE contention that the act in
question is violative of section IA,
article / of the Nevada state consti-
tuition, providing that there shall be
no Imprisonment for debts, except in
cases of fraud, libel or SANDER, is in
my Judgment, not well taken, for, as
said in the case of Robinson VS.. Peo-
pie, 20 Colorado, page 2S9. which de-
cision was rendered under a consti-
tutional provision similar to that of
Nevada, the Imprisonment here is not
for any debt, but upon a charge of an
act made a misdemeanor by statute,
to-wit, the receiving of moneys on
deposit as a banker by one knowing
himselg to be i%nsolvent.
"The design of the law seems to
be for the public good and in my OPP
inion it is not in violation of any ex-
press or implied provision of the state
or national constitutional. For the
above reasons, the demurrer should
be overruled and the defendant, T.
B. Hickey required to plead to the in
dictment and it is so ordered"
