 Much might be said of his place in the history of the diocese. At the. time he became Bishop, our people were indeed a feeble folk, scattered over a large territory, accessible only by the toughest modes of transporta- ton. Bishop cobbs was found faith ful we are told, and spared not him self, taking no thought for his own ease and comfort And so, he laid the foundations upon which his successors did build.

 In addition to being a decided suc- cess financially and in other respects 1t Is believed the carnival will lead to greater achievements for the city next season. Already the matter of pur- chasing suitable grounds to be prop- erly enclosed somewhere near the suburbs and to be used exclusively for racing and fair purposes is being freely discussed and will no doubt as- sume definite proportions at an early day.

A GOOD SHOWING BY
CLIFTON COMPANY
Gold Belt Dew. and Reduction
Company Has Promising
Property,

A representative of the Clifton Era
made a trip to the properties of the
Gold Belt Development & Reduction
company in the Clifton district last
Sunday and while there was given the
privilege of going through the mines.
1t is a well known fact that sthe
Gold Belt was extremely fortunate in
securing good management from the
start and the company has made one
of the best showings OF any new com
pany that has ever been organized in
this district
A 15-horse-power Fairbanks, Morse
gasoline hoist and substantial gal
lows frame has been installed OH Ine
copper shaft. whica is now down to a
depth, of 325 feet At the bottom of
this shaft, which is being sunk to the
north of the ore body, gold values
have been obtained A cross-cut is
being run south at the 25O-level. This
has reached a distance of 125 feet,
about 20 feet Of which passed through
shale, which formation is now under
going a change. This crosscut is be-
ing run under the surface workings
from which the company realized $751;
600 net last year from shipments of
high grade manganese copper ore.
That this ore body extends to depth
there is little doubt in the minds of
mining men. The copper vein Pitched
to the south and at $50 feet depth it
will probably require more than 80
feet to reach it, although a change
in formation at 125 feet is most en-
couraging. At the 325-leyel, a cross
cut to the north has just been started
which will no doubt strike a good
body of copper ore at almost any
time. That a large body OF copper
ore exists on this property there is
little doubt and it would not be sur
prising if this did not make one of
the big copper mines of that district
An inspection Of the gold shaft

Belt company has the best gold mine
that has ever been developed in the

work is being done to apply on IL
claims owned by the company on
Harris mountain. On the south side
of the mountain there is a tunna,
which is now about 100 feet in length.
From this tunnel about $50 feet in,
a crosscut is being run to tap the
ledge. There are no showings in this
crosseut yet. but the surface indica-
lions are good, and some ore may be
encountered before long. This cross
cut is As feet long.
Notable among properties on this
mountain is the Scanland, which has
an ore body yet only partially oe-
veloped, to width of 20 feet and
a length of 40 feet, by tunnel which
has a depth thought TO be about 100

Horace claim, having at least IS
inches OF ore for the entire distance
of about 175 feet.
On the Taylor and Cardwell copper
property, one of the owners, r. l..

some time next month. This ore is
being taken out from the Wine sunk
near the face in the upper or long
tunnel. This tunnel is 100 feet long
and has a vertical depth that has
been estimated to be about ESQ feet.
The Wine has just been started
and is feet deep. The ore is i'm

RECORD TARGET PRACTICE
PRACTICALLY COMPLETED

San Diego, Cal, April 2.-Wireless
reports received from Magdalena Bay
state that the record target practice
of 1908 for the Atlantic fleet is prac-
tically at an end The Vermont, the
last of the big sixteen to go on the
ranges, completed the firing of her L.
inch guns yesterday and today was
completing her record with the rifles
in the secondary battery, Most of the
ships also have completed their tor
pedo practice. so little remains to be
done at Magdalena Bay but to coal
and clean the ship. IT is said that all
of the vessels will take on sufficient
coal to carry them to San Francisco.
In this way the ships will be open to
visitors every day of their stay at the
various ports on the coast. During
coaling days all ships of the navy are
barred to visitors and practically all
of the officers have to remain on
board. The Connecticut which
brought Admiral Evans to San Diego
yesterday afternoon ana which clear
ed again for Magdalena Bay at 4
o'clock in the afternoon, was 24O
miles south at noon today and will
rejoin the fleet late tomorrow after
noon.
The weather at Magdalena is re-
ported as cloudy and threatening
these conditions having prevailed for
some time. No rain has fallen in the
bay. but few miles inland it is said
there have been showers. White uni
