Frank Miller, of Bridgeport, Conn.,, a prominent capitalist, now owns ex- tensive interests in the Stevens Cop per company, and report has it that he intends to do a considerable amount of new work on the property during next year. Work will proba- bly, be commenced early in January.

The beginning of the new year will | find the New York-Arizona company working as large forces as ever be- fore in the history of the company. The property is among the list of the development companies. They have already developed many thousands of tons of good milling ore and the man. agement of the company is planning the erection of a plant to handle the ore. The construction of a mill has been under consideration for some time.
 The Copper Mines Company of Ari zona will hold a meeting in Phoenix, Arizona, in the near future for the purpose of increasing it's board of directors from 15 to 2l. Judging from the manner in which the com pany is doing its annual assessment work in this district, it appears that an extensive years work is booked for the year 1909. This company owns large number of valuable cop per claims in the Clifton-Morenci district, which, with extensive de- velopment, will no doubt become producers.

others he has carefully refrained from
talking on that subject, and Thursday
he put the broad brand of untruth-
fulness upon an alleged statement by
Bishop Walters of the Afro-Methodist
Episcopal church to the effect that he
had assured negro delegation that
he regarded President Roosevelt's &C.

same time he also denied another
alleged interview of the bishop that
he had discussed the appointment of
negroes to office. These declarations
were called forth by a telegram from
the Baltimore Sun inquiring as to the
truth of the statements said to have
emanated from Bishop Walters.

Perhaps a more sensational and

any of the 16 persons present than
the execution of this misguided Ital-

were hushed only by the automatic

forever silenced the tongue that cried

a muscle, and when the reading was
finished said:

At o'clock supper was served to
the prisoner, it being the regular meal
served to the officers of the prison.
Before eating he divided it into five
portions, saying that one was for his
wife, one for himself, and one each
for his three children. He then ate
with apparent composure and relish.
At o'clock Guard Sasso came to
him with the information that within
one hour the execution would take
place. Ala again assented, and said
he was ready at any time. He further
said he felt no sorrow whatever for
having killed Father Leo. He was
certain that Father Leo was the man
he had been searching for for many
months, and claimed that he had rec.
ognized the priest by a scar on the

right man. ALA said he did not be-

broken owing to the slipping of the

down and he was pronounced dead.

New York.-MiXed in with all the
other burning questions of the hour is
the problem, to sheathe or not to
sheathe? You can get as many diff
ferent opinions as there are people to
consult. 1t does not seem to affect the
seaside hotels so much. AS long as
there are beaches and bathing the i'm
portance of the feminine costume with
regard to the success of the season is
small.
But with the managers of the noun
tain resorts it is different. To quote
one of them:
ITS all very we'll to talk scenery
and sanitation, the lovely views and
the good food-that used to go, but
when man can take boat or an auto
and get all these in an hour or two
from Broadway he isn't going to take

If we could sprinkle few of these

Producing the Soft Fall.
1.-THE soft fall about the feet which
is so much admired by the aesthetical-
ly inclined is produced by various de-
vices, usually small shot which are
sewed to band Of tape, which in turn
is fastened to the edge of the skirt or
few inches from the edge, as pre-
ferred. Paquin used rubber band at
the knee which went around the skirt
and drew it in to give the required eff
feet when walking, and some of the
sheath skirts have two rubber loops
through which the foot passes, but
this style, although it gives the sheath
walk all right, is very trying to an &C
tive minded woman, as she must never
forget them, and while she may not
mind the self-consciousness she does
mind the discomfort.
Il remember one of my first views
of the new sheath skirt was at the
Paquin establishment, and a model
one of those lovely girls they have
there-began joking and laughing and
insisted that she could step just as
far in sheath skirt as in other kind.
She tried it and tore the costume all
to pieces along the sides. After that
the sheath walk was adopted, which is
the necessary result of the bands and
shot"

Paris Needed the Money.

THE truth of the matter is that
Paris is hard up. She has suffered
severely from our little panic. Russia
too, one of her wealthy patrons, has
also fallen off in her orders. Paris
hasn't known what to do and has put
her wits to work to evolve something
to appeal to jaded taste and above
all to the American market.
Whether we will prove gullible I
cannot say, for it is as difficult to
prognosticate here as in the publish
ing or the theatrical world. When
The Old Homestead runs thousand
nights you are surprised when the
people suddenly demand The Soul
Kiss when the romantic drama
seems to be absorbing the literary
world and writer's are busy studying
history, the taste veers and nothing
but Dolly Dialogues will sell; when
