 .Stanchfield's effort was successful, for he convinced the committeeman, with the exception of myself and two or three others who saw through the game. The time for the system to round up the convention and corral the delegates, is short, but the system evidently thinks it is enough, for James J. Hill went home vita a sat isfied air
 Now, that the system is no longer menaced by the Roosevelt idea in the shape of Roosevelt himself for the presidency, it is confining its atten- ton chiefly to the Democratic con yention. It is anything to kill the Roosevelt idea, and as Bryan is con ceded to have adopted it to a slight extent. he is almost as cordially hated by the system as the president himself"

IN THE
 CHIRlCAHUAS

i the valley, after turning west This is one of the properties owned by Michi- gan people. consisting of Messrs. Thos. F. Cole, Rice. Crosby and associates. This is one of the promising proper ties of the district. No work is being done at present on the Chiricahua mining property further than a few men.
 At the Badger-Hall property a force of three shifts are driving a 200 foot tunnel, having made ITO feet. They have been in fine ore for 12 feet, but do not expect to strike the main ledge for another ten feet. There are ct least taree cars of shipping ore on the dump a. present. This is another of the Bisbee-Sonora oompany's prep critics They are now arranging for teams to freight the ore to Rodeo and will put larger force to work the 10th of January. This company has a store at the camp and furnishes a number in the district with supplies.
 The tunnel is being driven to catch the larger ledge which cuts through the mountain for great distance. From the shaft sunk at the surface of this ledge the richest ore has been taken out, carrying copper. gold and silver The tunnel which will cut this ledge at depth of nearly 250 feet is several hundred feet above the base of the mountain. The company will carry the ore from the mouth of the tunnel to the foot of the mountain by an aerial tramway a distance of nearly thousand feet.
 The Sullivan group, next to the Bad ger-Hall, has taken out some of the best ore in the district This is one of the promising districts of the south west and will show much activity dur ing the coming year.

Muskrats.

old Captain John Smith in his
 at History of New England and
 ,s Summer Isles," published in Lon Ion in 1924, gives probably the, first written account of the muskrat. He says that 'Tbe mussacus is a beast of the form and nature of our Englishl water rat and adds that some of them smell exceedingly strong of musk" These animals may be caught in almost any sort of trap baited with sweet apples or parsnips. Musk rats have very. strong teeth and can use them on wood effectively, so 1t is wise to protect all corners and cracks in your wooden traps with pieces of tn or sheet iron. They have good noses and can smell an apple a long distance off. Place your traps in the shallow water at the edge of the mill pond or stream inhabited by these rats. and they will doubtless find 1t without difficulty Young muskrats are very gentle and playful and may be handled without fear. They do not grow fierce with age if reared in captivity and ac- customed to gentle treatment.

In today's Review it was stated in the Lowell news that the employees of the Copper Queen store and their families were given a New Years dinner by Manager A. T. Soles. The article is correct insofar as the dinner was concerned but it was given the employees by the proprietors of the Busy Bee restaurant, instead of MT. Soles.
