This is an upper view of our
Twenty Stamp Mill, showing
the ore bins in the rear. These
stamps can handle 80 tons of
ore per day, and allowing 800
working days in the year, this
means an annual output of
$4,000 tons per annum. The
general run of ore from the
"Mayfower' has Melted
about SO per ton and in no
place has the mine been work
ed to a depth of 500 feet.
In all the great mines
around us values substantially
increase with depth. There is
not one known exception in
our district to this infexible
rule. The "Empire'' for in
stance, has an annual output
approximating 100000 and
is now down to the $500 foot
level, and making preparation
to 60 much lower. The ''1da-
no Maryland" a short dis
lance west of us, is taking out
richer quartz than ever from
its lower levels today, and the
"North STAR has just paid
a December dividend of $751;
500 Quarterly and in addi-
ton has added 100000 cash
to its reserve fund. And all
this from ore that has to be
taken from levels nearly a

the values from the lower lev
els are exactly the same as
the past average production,

an annual output of $4,000
tons as before mentioned, this
would give us $4,000 profit

for the upbuildIng and getting

Of that denomination, but of all

he is "a broad guaged young man,

He is a hustler. Since his debut
here, people from all parts of the

He has been the prime instru-

drawn church and denominations

pastors of both Methodist and

of sin and ignorance, He con
nected himself with the business

of the M b church, from whence
it came and what it did and Is
doing for the Negro race. AT

more for the education Of the COL

Only two days were occupied with the trial of the case, the first day being devoted to the securing of jury and the second day to the trial of the case. Conviction of murder in the first degree carries with 1t the death penalty and sentence will probably be passed by Judge Fulk in day or two.
 Hogue, who is only 20 years old, was charged with the murder of Grover Misner some time ago about ten miles south of Aplin.

TO AWAIT WALLACE'S TRIAL
Governor Will Not Fill Vacancy Unless

Little Rock, August II.-Not- withstanding he has received sev- eral requests to appoint a county judge to succeed Judge J. N. Wal lace of Perry county, indicted re- gently on the charge of reducing the assessment on his own person. al property, Governor Donaghey has given the matter but little con sideration. Judge Wallace has been temporarily suspended from office pending the result of his trial, which will be had today be- fore the Perryville circuit court. Govern Donaghey is not disposed to make any appointment unless Judge Wallace should be convict ed, which would disqualify him from further holding the office. He is inclined to give him the benefit of the doubt until the is sues of the case have been deter mined by the court.
 Judge Wallace owns consider able property in Perry county. Some of his friends have written to the governor, assuring him that he is not guilty of any violation of the law.

Little Rock on Scrip Basis.

Little Rock, Aug. II.-For the first time since 1889, the city of Little Rock is practically upon a scrip basis. The city pay day will come Saturday and the city treasur- CT lacks S6,o of the required amount to meet it. As a con- sequence the employees will have to discount their warrants to get them cashed. Arrangements have beeu made with banks to take the war rants and then accept the by-war- rants of the employees at dis count. In this r.anner the em- ployes will receive almost face value for the warrants, the city ob- ligating itself to pay them off when the January collections are made. For five months the employees will thus have to pay the interest on a public debt.

Although three weeks today have elapsed since Postoffice h. spector J. B.

Miller stated when here that the contract for lease would probably be for warded to the successful bidder within about 10 days from the date of his report, but there has evi- dently been a hitch in the matter somewhere.
 The lease of the building now occupied by the postoffice expired on July I6, and for the past three months negotiations for a new lease have been pending between the postofice department and par ties here who were bidding on the contract. On the last visit of In- spector Miller bids were received from J. Frank Jones, owner of the present site of the postofice; H. B. Ingram, for new building to be erected on East Oak street, and s. M.

A report from Little Rock states that Senator James P. Clarke has decided to recommend Tom D. Brooks of the firm of Brooks, Hays & Martin of Russellville as census supervisor of the Fifth con- gressional district, in which Faulkner county is located. w.. H. Duncan of Conway and J. C. Earl of Morrilton were candidates for the position. Judge Duncan has made application for the place directly to the president and the census department and has the backing of many of the most prom inent men in the state, and it is possible that President Taft may appoin. him over the recommenda- tion of Senator Clarke,
 There are threeDemocra,ic super visors in the state to be appointed. The appointment of two of these was settled some time ago, Senator Jeff Davis making one appoint ment and Senator Clarke the o,h- CT. This left the appointment in the Fifth district open and whether an agreement has been reached be tween Senators Clarke and Davis as to this district is not known.
 In speaking of the appoint ments, the Gazette this morning says:
 The question of the selection of the three Democrats who are to be census supervisors in Arkansas, it is understood, was practically set tied yesterday by Senator Jas. P. Clarke, the choice being G. T. Breckinridge of Paragould, Robert White of Paris and Tom D.

They are going to have Pres. Taft here in the fall or know the reason why. Col. H. L.
