ACQUIRES PADILLA
 ESTATE GROUP or MINES
(From sundays Daly)

,Iacs A. .Crainc, president and gen eral manager of the Golden Cross Mining Company, which recently pur chased the Cross group of mines in the Cedar district of Mohave county, is confident that his company's purchase will develop into one of the richest gold mines in Mohave county.
 Although only opened to depth of loo feet the Cross mine has pro duced several thousands of dollars in gold. It was formerly the property of Padilla estate and was worked many years by Mexieans in n dcsul. tory way. Only the richest ores were treated by the arastra process; $40 in gold was recovcd from 100 pounds of ore treated in an arastra in August Ores sampling from 'onc ounce to twen ty ounces to the ton in gold were left untouched in the mine by the Mexi can owners who noticed only quartz showing free gold.
 As its name indicates. the Cross claim covers an intersec. on of a fs. sure vein and q porphyry dyke. Te dyke has perpendicular walls twelve feet apart with a quartz vein in the porphyry filling two feet thick. The Assure is five feet wide between gran. ite walls. Ii dips at an angle of fifty degrees. President Craine has started A force of miners sinking the shaft al the intersection. The plan of develop ment contemplates the opening of tho dyke and Assure from every 100 foot level as the shaft is sunk.
 The group comprising four claims II sunk.
 The group comprising four claims il located in the wallapai mountains twelve miles north of the McCracker mine and twenty miles south of Yueei station on the Santa Fe railroad.

CALUMET q ARIZONA
 MAKES SECOND PAYMENT

TOMBSTONE, Jan. 6.-There was deposited in the First National Bank of Tombstone on Saturday the sum of s27 ,000 to the credit of Dilliam Cow . an and the Stevenson brothers. The , money was placed to their account by the Calumet & Arizona Mining com , pany, and was for the purpose of max , ing the second payment on the Ger ' mania and No. l mining claims in the Turquoise district, that are now be- ing worked under bond by the C. & A. company. The claims in question were bonded by the C. X A. company in the month of April of last year, the bond to run for period of twelve months for sG5,o00. At the time of the sign ing Of the papers the company paid down ten per cent and the balance Of the s65 5,oo0, s3l,5 300 was 10 be paid on
 or before the 2nd day of April, 1909. The Germania has proved one or
 the hest mines ever discovered in the | history of Arizona. The shaft Is now down little over tnrce hundred feet,
 while drifts have been run on the oth'
 CT levels, and nearly 100000 tons of
 ore blocked out. The ore dumps on
 the surface is nearly twice in size that
 of the waste dump, and when the fact
 is taken into consideration that no
 more ore was taken ont than was ab-
 solutely necessary in the sinking Of. the
 shaft and in the running of the drifts
 and erosscuts, it ean easily be seen what the extent of the ore bodies m the property is.
 } The Germania property is between the Casey group and the Mary mine Of the Great Western company, in boil
 of which there has already been de - veloped large bodies of ore. Especial ly is this so in the Mary mine of th' . Great Western company, conseryn
 tive estimate placing the ore bloeke' e out in that mine at the present time a [. over 100000 tons and valued at sl,ooo '. GOO There never has been in the hi' $ tory of the copper mining of Coeas Q county such an amount of ore develop C cd in as short a time as has been UT T. covered in the Mary, and its extent l. still unknown, as the ore increases e size as depth is attained.
 70 These two properties promise to a it tonish the copper world in the amour n of ore that they will be able to pr
 duee, and will materially help Arizor re to maintain its lead as the large In copper producing territory of the Uni et ed States.

STICKS SEPARATE.
Wife Gets Divorce Because Husband
 Was Brutally Silent.

Of all the alleged acts of cruelty vita which Mrs. Fannie speek eharg ed her husband in her suit for divorce yesterday before Judge Monroe, that of silence, she said, was the most cut ting, says the Los Angeles Examiner
 Mrs. Fannie speek, mother of Miss Fanehon Lewis, the actress, wept pro fusely yesterday on the witness stand when the judge asked her to reeite the causes that had prompted ner to sue her husband for divorce.
 The woman asked the court to ex elude her daughter from the room and then told the story of her husbands alleged eruelties. John Speek, the de fendant in the ease, did no, appear.
 "He found what ae thought was grievance against me, said tho wit ness, "and then remained silent for weeks in succession. At the table not word was spoken by him, and when be was asked question he simply looked up and shrugged his shoulders.
 "T would have suffered his abuse without a word of complaint; l would have listened to bis insulting aeeusa- tions without sign of protects I would nave ignored all the other in dfynitie-, even 10 the point of letting him beat me, fl he only would have opened his mouth to say something Silence is terrible For weeks In q stretch he would say nothing He

MEXICAN THOUGHT
 INSANE LEAVES FOR HOME
Urom sundny.s Dallyl

Francisco Colon of Mexico City, who recently jumped through the window of a Santa fe passenger train near Nelson and was lodged m the county jail here charged with insanity, was released from custody yesterday after an examination in the probate court. Colon will leave this morning for his home in Mexico
 Colon was on his way home from san Francisco, he says, when he he. came terrified at the presence of immi. grafton officers on the train that he jumped through the window in an ef- fort to escape arrest. He answered all questions rationally in the probate court yesterday. He explained that he was on his way home to Mexico to assist in the settlement of his fathers estate when he made the jump from the ear window that resulted in his arrest. He described in detail his ex. periences since nis arrival in the Unit ed States and informed the court and examining physicians that he went to San Francisco at the request of his brother, who informed him that he could qualify as an interpreter in the California courts.
 Arriving in San Francisco, he said that he learned that ne was not famil. jar enough with syntax to pass the re quired examination. He worked as n day laborer at the rate of 1925 a day until he received n letter from his sis
 ter in Mexico that their fathers es
 tate could not he distributed until h,
 returned 10 sign some necessary docu
 ments. She forwarded him $l00 il
 United States gold coin and $2O0 ir
 Mexican currency to defrsy ais return
 expenses. He purchased ticket ant
 was on his way when found by immi grafton officers near Nelson. He hearc one of the officers order the brakeman 10 shut the windows of the ear an,
 seeing their handcufs became so terri
 fed at the prospects of being arrested
 and hancufred, jumped through tn'
 window in an effort to escape befor'
 the brakeman closed the windows, H' was injured painfully in the head il the fall from the train. He was pick ed up and brought to the county jai , here, charged with insanity.
 Colon converses nuently in Eng , fish. The services of an interprete , engaged for the examination were no 7 needed. Documents found in his pos
 session corroborated some of his state ments. He is of nervous temperamen s but his general demeanor and appeal !. ance indicate that he is of well-bre 2 ancestry.
 f The Santa Fe officials extended th
 time of his ticket at the request
 the examining physicians and u |, county authorities furnished him ticket to Asn Fork. He has only q in cash to pay his living expenses e the trip home.
