Gold Struck on
Property Of
Rawhide Gold
Quartz Min
ing Co.

The following taken from the Raw
hide Press Times, OF the date of May
ID, gives some very encouraging news
concerning the Raw Hide Gold Quartz
Mining property, in which some Of

are interested.
A strike that promises big things in
the way of a tonnage, output Of shipping
ore, has been made on the estate of the
Rawhide Gold Quartz Mining Co.,
which Joins the Royal and Tiger claims
on the north. In driving tunnel to
explore the continuation of the Royal
lead, blind vein was cut that shows
and assaying up to 1874 per ton. The
gangue is heavy silisifed rhyolite, Of
darkish blue gray color, similar in
many respects to the high grade mined
on the Kirk lease in the same locality.
Sulphides are very noticeable in the
gangue. The vein is II inches in depth
and appears to be Strengthening to al
most the vertical. 1t was cut at a
depth of 80 feet.
Superintendent Good of the Company
states that he is of the opinion that the
lead cut is entirely independent Of
others that have been exposed in the
same locality, and that with the further
work he will open up big body of
shipping ore. The tunnel is to be con-
tinued and tho new vein explored at
tho SAME time. The ore has every ap-
pearance Of some Of the best mined in
the district. kawhide Press Times

PIONEER CITIZEN
 0F TUCSON DEAD
JUDGE W. J. OSBORN PASSES AWAY AT AGE OF 74--HELD
 MANY IMPORTANT OFFICES.

Judge w. J. Osborn, one of the pio- neers of Arizona, and man who has held many responsible positions during a long life of honorable citizenship, passed away at the family residence yestreday evening His death has been expected for considerable time, as he was suffering from the rnost remorse. less of all maladies, old age, says the Tucson Star
 With him at the time were his wife and number of old friends who had done all that was possible to tighten his last days. Funeral services had not been definitely arranged for dast night, further than 1t had been decided that they would be under the conduct of the A. O. U. w. of which order the late judge was member, and that they would in all probability be held tomorrow afternoon.
 Judge Osborn was nearly "A years of age at the time of his death, he having been born in Scoharie county, New York, on the 9th day of February, 1884. He lived in the east until he was thirty years of age, when he came to Arizona and settled in the then frontier village of Tucson, and he had made this his home for the forty odd years which followed. He was married there in December, 1874. One married daughter is living in New Jersey.
 Judge Osborn was for many years engaged in the practice of law, and was favored with large and prosper. ous clientele. He served the country in many capacities. For years he was probate judge, served term or two in the legislature, was one of the early mayors of Tucson, city recorder, and filled various other positions.
 No man stood higher in the affection and esteem of those who knew him than Judge Osborn. Of recent years his principal public activities had been confined to the work of the Pioneer Society, of which he was president His career was identical with the growth of the territory from desert with few hamlets and government outposts to great city. His death will be met by the universal regret of the entire territory.

An Ancient Rams Horn.

A rams horn that was imbedded in a tree ls3 years ago is curiosity that Jason Elder, forester ranger living at Paisley, Oregon, has discovered. While rambling in the woods in 1888 Elder came across yellow pine tree in the base of which was imbedded the horn of mountain sheep. He did not then have time to make thorough in- vestigation, but since he became a for est ranger he had occasion to go to cut down the tree. He took a section of the trunk containing the horn to Lake view. The horn was little to one side of the center of the tree. 1t was not curled as are the horns of mountain sheep nowadays, but was almost straight. Counting the rings it was 2l3 years old. Outside of the horn were lS3 rings, indicating the number of years that had elapsed since the noun tain sheep was caught and held fast by the yellow pine. The horn was soak ed with pitch. It is ten inches in diameter at the base and thirty inches lonG.-Philadelphia Ledger.

 THE EL0PEMENT
RAILROAD MAN AT ASH FORK WOULDN'T LET ANOTHER RUN
 AWAY WITH HIS WIFE.

The trainmen coming, in on the Santa Fe bring news of the nipping of bud ding romance in a most dramatic man. ner yesterday at Ash Fork, says the Gazette.
 It appears that a fireman who made his headquarters in that place has re- gently been making ardent love to the wife of a switchman and the story goes that the woman was not averse to re- eeiving his attentions but returned his affection and taht a few days ago they agreed that they should elope.
 The fireman wired to the proper head quarters for passes for himself and wife, which were sent in due course.
 So far everything seemed to have been lovely and the lovers were plan ming blissful honeymoon.
 But in some manner unexplained the switchman learned of his wife inten- tion to desert him. He did not storm and tear, but conducted himself as usual before her. He exercised the cunning of genius and wired the story of the intended elopement to the office where the fremen secured his passes.
 Yesterday the fireman and Mrs. Switchman were just about to board the train and leave for another cline when a notification was handed him that his passes had been cancelled and ordered taken up. There was also an intimation that the Santa Fe Railroad company did not care to keep in it's em- ploy one who would steal away another mans wife.
 About this time the husband hap pened along and informed the woman that he knew of her plans. He reasoned with her for some time before he could persuade her that it would be best for her to remain in Ash Fork with him, but he was finally successful. When his wife consented to remain the switch man laughed loud and long at the dis comfture of the fireman, who was out his position, his passes and his bride to be.
 The fireman bought ticket and left for parts unknown.

An Egg as the Earth.

It will be long while before the world of science will forget some of the late Lord Kelvin s reasonings. He was, for instance, a firm enemy to those who held that the interior of the earth must be fluid because of its intense heat. To prove his contention that the interior of the earth must be solid, he took two eggs, one hard boiled and the other raw, and suspending them by cords, spun them in imitation of the earth s rotation. In very short while the raw egg lost its momentum and came to rest, whilst the boiled one went on spinning merrily for quite long while. From this he argued that if the earth had a liquid core it would have come to an end long ago.-Black and White.
