SERIOUS ACCIDENT.

Little ]. b. Anderson, son of Mr..
Green F. Anderson, the well-known
lawyer, who resides at 81 Tennessee
street, was seriously injured a day
or so ago by the accidental discharge
of a pistol in the hands of Felix Tip
pens, a little fellow with whom he
was playing. Immediately after the
accident DR.. R. F. Boyd was called
and did everything possible for the
wounded child The bullet, it is said,
entered the forehead of the boy, and
at first it was thought that there was
but little hope of recovery. Young
Tippens declares that his father sent
him for the pistol, but his mother de-
MES it, and says the boys had pro-
cured the revolver without her knowl-
edge. Wednesday afternoon DR.. Boyd
telephoned to the Globe that Mr..
Anderson's son gets no better nor
worse. We have some hopes that he
will recover"

BIG FOOTBALL GAME.

ANN ARBOR, Mch.. Nov. 13.-It will be Michigan vs. Pennsylvania on Ferry Field tomorrow and the indica- tions are that the game will be wit messed by the largest crowd that ever attended a football contest here. Ho- tels, dormitories and fraternity houses are filled with visitors who have come to see the most important game of the season on Michigan's schedule. Several hundred enthusiastic rooters have come to town with the Pennsyl- vauia eleven to cheer the Red and Blue on to vicitory.
 A feeling of confidence pervades the Michigan camp. The supporters of the Wolverine team figure that, a. though Pennsylvania probably has the best team it has had in years, it Is no better than the Michigan squad. which was able to win over the Van derbilt team by a score nearly as large as that by which Pennsylvania won over the Carnegie institute, with all of her stars in the game.
 The game tomorrow will be the third between the Pennsylvania and Michigan elevens Roth of the pre- vious contests were won by Pennsyl- vania. Last year he score was to 0 and in 1906 the score was IT to O.

TOM RED PAYS DIVIDEND

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 13.-Two hun dred and fifty stockholders in Los Angeles and aPsadena were yester- day given practical proof of the fact that mining sometimes pays, when dividend checks for six cents a shart' or total of S45,540, were distributed by the Tom Red Gold Mining com pany, which has made such a phenom- enal record in the past year.
 This is the first dividend paid by the company, but there is no doubt that it is the foreTunner of a series of payments of equal amount. The treas ury of the company contains a large cash balance, derived from operation of the present ten-stamp mill and no effort has yet been made to take out ore except as necessary in the prose cution of development work. There fs large tonnage in the stopes ready te be broken down, but that will not be attempted until the new mill of m creased capacity has been completed.
 The company is capitalizd for s1,- 000,0o0 in dollar shares and of that amount 759,000 shares have been iE- sued. Nearly 60O,O0O shares are held bs q GAiehlA NOLtAlS OA luShs I oS1NNAE men, including l.. P. Hansen, who uas managed the property from the first. and to whom the credit of success Is due: Charles Grimes, James F. Keer. William Mason, Charles Mushrusb and ex-State Senator c. M. Simpson. The remaining 159.00o shares are scattered in smaller amounts among stockhold- CTS in Los Angeles and Pasadena
 The company started operations year ago last Apyil, after taking in the old Blue Ridge property from the Title Guarantee and Trust company of Los Angeles, which had acquired it by sheriff's sale. Treasury stock was placed on the market at 15 cents and soon after active operations were commenced important strikes of high grade ore were made. The workings have so far only reached the 250-foot level and the mill has been kept run ming on ore from development work. The quotation of the stock stood at 1.25 bid ysterday after selling around 80 cents ten days ago, when the Los ! Angeles-Nevada Stock Exchange first began calling 1t.

THINKS HE HAS OIL

PRESCOTT Nov. 13.-J. NJ. Sharps general manager of the Yavapai Oil and Mining company, who is person ally directing the drilling of the com pany's oil well near Valley siding, is nthusiastic over the prospect of striking a good flow of oil at an early date. He teIephoned to A. J. Heaa, managing director of the company here, yesterday morning that stra, tum of oil sand was encountered car rying more oil than any of the strara passed through higher in the bore.
 He says the oil is now plainly wis ible flowing on the surface of tke water pumped from the well and that it smells stronger of petroleum than the product of any of the upper strata of oil sand. Sharp informed HeaG through the telephone that there was no longer any doubt, in his opinion. but that a good flow of oil will be struck l'ttle farther down.
 The well Is now 1870 feet deep. Sharp believes that it may be advis- able with a little more depth to case out the water so that 1t will not Iri- terfere with the oil flow when struck. This will occasion the purchase ul several hundred feet of new easing and also the purchase of smaller boring tools as the diameter of the bore is necessarily reduced when ad. ditionaI casing is added below.
 Head and his assoc ate sharehold- CTS in the company are jubilant over the outlook of demonstrating the ex lstence of oil in this county on tls, eve of the most prosperous period in its history. They estimate that il will cost an additional S1,000 to pur chase the casing and new drilling tools which will be soon necessary in the opinion of General Manager Sharp. The company is amply If nanced to do this as well as sink the bore several hundred feet deeper.
 The company's holdings are located twenty miles north of this city along the S. F., P. & P. railroad.
