OFFICERS KILL BEAR.

Tucson, Ariz., Oct. 5.-A terrible
tragedy was enacted at Elysian grove,
a pleasure park near here, Sunday after
noon when an immense black bear es-
capped from cage, charged upon a
throng of visitors and killed an infant,
tearing it to pieces. The animal, which
had been raised in captivity from cub,
had been in the habit of being given
soda pop at the bar, and when it
escaped it went there. 1t was driven
out by the attendants, but returned,
and when it was driven away again and
an attempt made to drive it into it's
cage it became enraged and charged the
crowd.
The wife of Southern Pacific en-
ploye named Buss Laird ran with a 60
cart containing an infant. The bear
pursued and snatched the infant and
tore it to pieces before it's mother g
eyes. 1t was attacking the women when
shot from a policeman revolver
stopped it. The bystanders opened a
fusillade and filed the brute with bull
let's. The bear had been closely con-
fined since week ago, when it attacked
a small boy.

Why
Issued

These bonds are issued to raise money
to purchase machinery. equipment, ETC.,
for reduction plant to be operated in
Manhattan, Nevada With the equipment
the company is putting in ore can be
treated at an expense of 81 per ton.
The contract price for treating the ore
is Sc per ton. giving net profit of $5
per ton to the Ell Zagel Reduction Co.
The plant they are installing is capable
of handling SO tons per day, but we figure
on a conservative basis on a years run
an average of so tons per day. There
fore, the plant will have a daily EARN
ING CAPACITY OF $400, or approxi-
mately $150,000 per year.
Now, there may be some question in
your mind as to the probability of this
corporation receiving enough contracts to
keep the plant running continually year
in and year out
In answer to this argument we will call
your attention to the fact that over 400
tons of milling ore is being mined daily
from the thirty-six producing mines and
leases of the camp in excess of the mill
ing capacity.
The freight this ore to the next
nearest mill is $40 per ton. The Consoli-
dated mine alone is producing enough ore
to smother every mill in the camp.
According to the expert opinion of our
best biologists and most successful min
ing engineers Manhattan is destined to
become one of the great permanent gold
producing camps of the world.
