MINERS BUSY
MANY PEOPLE VISIT NEW
GOLD DISCOVERIES
TRAIL IS KEPT HOT
A Mineral Belt of Considerable
Extent Crosses the Country
North of Whitefish, and
Prospects Show Up
Very Well.

The trail to the new gold discoveries in
the hills north of town has been kept hot
this week, and a large number of people
have visited the locality. Many have
went i'll to prospect and endeavor to To-
cate claims in the mineral belt, and
many others have made the trip just to
see for themselves what the actual condi-
tions are. On Sunday especially many
people made the trip, some going on
horseback, but most of them walking.
With the exception of being quite steep
in some places, the trail to the prospects
is very good one, the constant travel
during the past two weeks having worn
it out until it is almost road. 1t is about
six miles to the first prospects by this
trail.
The groupings show that there is a
mineral belt of considerable extent which
crosses the country north of town, run
ming east and west, and which is evident
ly the same upon which the Lupfer
mines are situated.
The lodges and seams Of mineral lie in
a quartzite formation, and on the sur
face vary in width from few inches to
five feet.
On the Micho claims there is one ledge
which looks particularly good. 1t differs
from the other lcdges in that it is APP
parently true tissure vein, and an as
say from this showed high values. Good
assays were also secured from the Other
veins, however and if the first assays
come anywhere near showing the true
values, there is every reason to anticipate
that some paying gold mines will be de.
veIoped.
The predominating value in the crop
pings is in gold, but there is also some
copper and silver, with an occasiona
showing of galena.

ACCUSING INTEREST
 IN NEW BALL TEAM
Backed by M. w. A. Mir. Bushell, Pres ident of the Tucson City League, Hopes to Organize.

L. A. Bushell. territorial deputy for the Modern Woodmen, who has re- gently come to Phoenix for a year or more in the interest of the order, is making arrangements to organize a baseball nine composed of the local players which he will try out and pick therefrom the best material. MT. Bushell is a fan and formerly a base ball player himself. but is now satis- fled with looking after the business end.
 He was president of the city. league at Tucson last summer and fall up to the time of the tournament, when he went to Globe The Tucson city league was composed of three teams, the Cor betts. Armstrongs and Swastikas, and was run according to the prescribed rules. fines were levied for misbehav- for on the diamond. and nobody got any money but the players after the expenses were paid.
 Mir Bushell in taking hold of the management of a team here proposes to run it on similar lines to those adopted at Tucson, which were finan- cially and otherwise satisfactory. While Mir. Bushell's purpose in organ izing q nine is not to make for him self a lot of predatory wealth. he will no doubt reap some justly deserved returns in advertising the order which he represents and no doubt gain for it considerably in membership. This is laudable ambition and has been suc- cessful for the Elks in Globe.
 The M. w. A. proposes to boost the organization of a nine here. The local camp may furnish the suits. though some of the players who want to join in. are willing to pay for their own outfits providing some one will take hold of the nine. properly manage and put it on solid footing. There is some good material here if gathered to- gether and drilled on team work, posi- tioned and kept playing where they are fitted to play. From the success of the Tucson city league team under Mir Bushelrs direction the proposition here appears in a very favorable light.
 He will shortly call a meeting of all the local players. explain the plans and sign up the desirable candidates. He expects to schedule games as soon as the suits arrive and the nine Is in shape. Mir. Bushell stated last night that games could be arranged with Tucson and Globe now. Prescott in the spring. and other teams including the Indians and Mesa. 4 number of players have signified their willing ness to play in a nine which MT. Bushell will manage and are willing to take as remuneration whatever can be made out of it. There is also talk of the New York store recognizing a nine. in which event there will be a local contestant. besides the Pacific Gas Co.'S. and the Indians.

 Beside the body of Daggs was found his rifle. empty, with shells scattered about. a precaution taken by the mur- derers out of which to construct a theory of self defense if defense should ever become necessary. But what Hoestadt saw precludes that for Daggs was dead when he was dragged to the spot where his body and the rifle were found. Hunter who was a deputy sheriff of Pinal county habitu- ally carried a revolver in his coat pocket. It is said that he was never without it but since h<s death it has not been found.
 The Arrest of Stewart.
 When Sheriff McGee arrived from Florence suspicion had already point but no arrest was made until after the finding of the body of Hunter in the search Of which every man in camp but the supposed murderers had participated.
 When the sheriff went to the cabin of Stewart he was first intercepted by a barking dog Pushing past him he came to the door and knocked Stew art opened it cautiously and the sher- if covered him. Stewart jumped back. slammed the door shut but the officer crowded it open with the muzzle of his rifle and again covered Stewart and took him into custody. Fondren was arrested later, down in town where his cabin is situated.
 There was a thought. though hardly SnGuiciOU that a third man might have been implicated in the slaughter for as has been mentioned there had been three guns. Stewart has a part

 Preparation for the Massacre.
 A witness has been found who said 1 that the night before the killing Fon- dren left for Stewards cabin with two guns. There are scores of witnesses as to the threats that had been made by Fondren and Stewart.
 Fondren who is a large man has been regarded in the camp only as a good inatured liar and boaster but there is a story that about twelve years ago he killed two men in New Mexico. Stewart is a man of fierce disposition and 1t was generally pre- dicted that his controversy with Daggs would sometime have some such bloody >denouement.
 Whatever may have been the merits of their quarrel with Daggs the fiendishness of the butchery has ob- scured them. The ferocity of the men can be accounted for only on the the ory that they were taken possession of by blood lust after the first shooting and thought of nothing but to kill. kill. kill as long as there was living thing in sight.
 A Gloomy Night Scene.
 Visitors to the camp on the two nights after the finding of the bodies say that il was a most grewsome place, not unlike the stories they had read of Arizona mining camps. The mountain reared up on the edge of the camp added to the gloom which could be broken only by the faint glimmer of candles. Groups of miners sat about discussing the tragedy and 1t was ob- served that it was a good thing that Superior was a dry" camp on those two nights.
 Sheriff McGee has earned the re- spect of his constituents in that part of the county by the prompt and deci- sive manner in which he took carge of affairs.
 Little has been printed thus far about Hunter and 1t appears he had but few acquaintances here He was reared on a cattle ranch in Texas but in his early manhood went to Colo rado. Since then he has been chiefly engaged in mining and prospecting though about ten years ago he was a deputy sheriff in Cripple Creek. Two years ago or more he entered the em- plOy of the Daggses and has been with them ever since. He was a man who appeared to be about 50 years old, of medium height and spare build. So far as known he had no communica- ton recently with any relatives ex- cept a son whose whereabouts was not learned, He was a member of the Masonic order and at the time of his death was deputy under Sheriff Me Gee of Pinal county.

Pest of Lumber Trade.

The forest service has undertaken
experiments at Bogalusa, La, with the
object Of rendering lumber immune
from the attacks of bluing, thereby
stopping what at present is a serious
loss.
Bluing is due to the growth of low
forms of fungi, all of which probably
belong to the genus Ceratostomella.
This plant Is too low in the scale of
life to produce true seeds, but as a
substitute 1t produces microscopic Or
ganisms called spores, which when
ripe are carried away by the wind in
countless numbers.
The air of forests, and especially
around many lumber yards, Is SO in.
tested with such spores that when
timber is placed In the yard to dry 1t
is infected with them. If the timber
happens to be moist and possesses
necessary food to support the life of
the plant the spores Immediately ger.
inmate and send little threads, or
hyphae, into the tissues.
Their action decomposes the sap
and causes the wood to become dis
colored. The deterioration In value of
lumber on account of this pest
amounts to thousands of dollars each
year.--American Industries

ROAD DRAGS.
Good Work in One Illinois County an
Example of What Can Be Done.

Forty-three reports from Mclean
county rural mail carriers, to the
bloomington Qll) Paragraph, show
that the King road drag has been used
on 212 miles of road in the latter part
of November and that there were 1854
road drags owned upon these routes.
These reports represent two-thirds OF
the rural routes of Mclean county.
Every carrier who In any way indi-
Gated the results of road dragging
40 out Of 43-gave good recommen-
dalton of the drag, many of them
in strong terms, and not one OF them
had word of failure to report when
the drag had been properly used.
While the report shows that one.
third OF all the drags were not In use,
there was special reason for this
condition; this was in the rush of
corn-husking time, and no doubt many
of these drags will be put to work
now that husking is finished.
This report from limited territory
shows as much road dragging and
more than twice as many drags as
were reported for this county year
ago by the Illinois highway commits
sion.
An examination of the 43 reports
shows that some dragging was done
upon 81 routes, the smallest amount
being one-half mile, and the largest
Is miles, the latter being the route
out of Covel
Nine routes had each ten or more
miles of dragged road and the aver
age number of miles dragged upon the
81 routes was six and three-fourths.
In Normal and Dry Grove townships
all the roads of principal travel are
to be dragged, and Hudson township
is seeking to do the same thing.
Very significant is the many times
repeated remark of these carriers that
the road drag is good thing "if used"
or IF properly used" Several Of
these reports show that winter and
spring use of the drag, especially
when the roads are wet enough for
the mud to smear, bake and harden,
Is much better than dragging when
the roads are dry enough for the dirt
to roll up or crumble.
One of the lessons that has been
learned in Mclean county Is that the
road should be dragged when the sur
face Is in a paste-like condition.
The most progressive of our road
draggers are learning the exceeding
value of dragging the road just before
a freeze, and during the winter when
ever it thaws enough SO that the sur
face can be smoothed by the drag.
This cheap, simple implement is work
ing itself into favor with the people
wherever 1t Is properly used, and it
can no longer be said that there Is no
sure and economical way Of great Inn
proyement to our earth roads.

The Two West Points.


The sensations of the new cadet
when. after the climb from the boat
landing. he finally reaches the plain
those first sensations linger a long
while. There are two West Points
the actual West Point and the over
arching, spiritual one, of which the
cadet only becomes conscious about
the time he graduates, writes Gen.
Norris Schatf in Atlantic Monthly.
The determinate West Point that ID
TO be his master for four years, and
the shaper of his destiny, meets him
at the top of the slope with ominous
silence. He hears no voice, he sees
no portentous figure; but there Is com
municated In some way, through some
medium, the presence OF an invisible
authority, cold. memorable and re-
1entless. Time never wears away this
first feeling; it comes back to every
graduate on returning to West Point,
let his years and his honors be what
they may. And perhaps 1t Is just as
well that 1t be SO; that there Is one
place left In our country where van
ity of asserted ancestry and the too
frequent arrogance of speculative and
fortuitous commercial leadership find
a chill.

The StuyVesants In America,

American families may not be OF
long duration measured by the stand
ard which can be applied to some old
world houses Still, the death or a
lineal descendant of Peter Stuyyesant,
and one OF the few who lived to see
the twentieth century, recalls some
stirring and swiftly-made history.
Robert Stuyvesant, who has been
gathered to his Dutch ancestors, his
bones to be laid away In family
vault where many of the kindred dust
repose, was a link between present
and past and one whose life suggests
q marvellous contrast between the past
and present of the city that was his
home. Peter Stuyvesant, the last
Dutch governor Of New Amsterdam,
was strong and vigorous character,
with peppery disposition that kept
him In hot water with many of his
contemporaries, including the sturdy
Dutch PATRONS who then controlled
a good part OF this section of the
country. But unquestionably he left
an impress on his times, and the name
to the present day carries with 1t dis
tinction and honor.
