OLD TIPTOP PROPERTY
MAY RECEIVE NEW LIFE
Movement Abroad to UnWater Pro-
ducer of Early Days and
Install Plant

PRESCOTT, July 1S.-The old Tiptop
mine is to be worked on an extensive
scale in the near future, and arrange
ments are going on to that end in this
city. 1t is now proposed to place a
complete concentrating plant on the
property, this to work in conjuction
with the silver mill of ten stamps used
in the old days.
This ground has been under opera
ton for nearly two years by a syndl-
cate known as the Tiptop Heath Min
ing and Milling company. In this time
the old workings have been cleaned
out, and considerable exploring has
resulted. No effort to unwater the
property has been attempted, and until
new machinery Is placed this work
will not be undertaken.
Following the work by this company
in the past few years there is every
indication that the old workings are
still at many points in the upper zone,
or above the line of the water Level.
1t Is the purpose of the company TO
generally explore the ground below
that level as son as the water is
pumped out. 1t has been number or
years since this old mine was operated.
It's career was one of the handsomest
in the history of the territory, and
when 1t closed down over A,000,OOO In
silver was to it's credit. No mine in the
territory, or on the coast, for that
matter, had the values to it's ores in
tonnage that this property produced.
Ore running as high as $4,000 ounces to
the ton in silver was frequently mined,
while it's shipping product went from
400 ounces to 1000 ounces to the ton.
Silver in that day had value of from
$110 to $1.20 an ounce.

'I dare make the sweeping statement
that in the business world of today it
is considered impossible TO live up to
the Golden Rule or to practice the
teachings of Christ"
Even in our domestic life we find
it hard to measure up to the precepts
of the Sermon on the Mount"
"If the Son of Man should return TO
this earth today and should change one
item of his appearance or teachings he
would find the great tide that has swept
toward him in the past centuries sud-
denly receding, until he would at length
stand deserted and alone"
"Theologies may clash dogma may
negative creed, churches may wrangle
and grow apart, but the Christ stands
today where he stood nineteen hundred
years ago--calm, loving, strong, helpful,
the greatest figure in human history"
Greed is not Christianity, dogma is

Charles Il. Russell, pastor of the Brook
lyn tabernacle formerly presided over
by Rev. DR.. T. Dewitt Talmage and
who was one of the leading spirits in
the Bible students convention held in
Mammoth hall, 517 South Broadway.
The convention, which was under the
auspices of the Watch Tower Bible and
Tract society, closed last night after
a successful series of meetings attend
ed by several hundred Bible students
from various parts of the United
States.
Rev. Or. Charles r. Russell pastor
of the Brooklyn tabernacle, formerly
presided over by Rev. T. Dewitt Tai
mage, has been one of the prominent
speakers of the convention and has
attracted large audiences. In addition
to sermons and lectures, Rev. Mr..
Russell has answered questions pertain
ing to the parts of the Scriptures sell
dom discussed from the pulpits of the
different denominations.
Yesterday morning a praise service
was held at 10 o'clock, followed by an
address by f. D. Sexton. At 3 o'clock
public service was held in Simpson
auditorium. addressed by j. p. Ruther-
ford. The closing session last night in
Mammoth hall was in the form of a
symposium and was addressed by sew
eral speakers.
Five carloads of Bible students from
the east attended the convention,
which was one of the largest of its
kind ever held in Los Angeles. The
delegates enjoyed the decorations for
the Elks as much as though they had
been arranged for their special benefit.
Many of the delegates will remain in
Los Angeles several days to visit the
nearby resorts.

IT'S Not Easy to Fly, Says
New Competitor of Wrighte

tits not easy to fly in an
aeroplane," says Glenn H.
Curtiss. There are so many
things to do that 1t takes
some time to learn how sto
do them. Rub your stom-
ach with a circular move
ment with your right hand
and pat your head with your
left hand. Try It! You can
learn to do 1t, If you practice
enough. Well, that's the same
difficulty you face in learn
ing to fly. You may have to
move your shoulders one
way, turn your steering
wheel another, and, at the
same time, either push your
wheel away from you or draw
1t toward you.
THE only way to learn to
fly is to learn these motions
separately and then learn
them together, remembering
that any mistake is likely to
be dangerous.

A WHITE AND BLACK TIGREss

An eight foot eight inch tigress with
an abnormally colored coat was re-
Gently shot in the Murhi subdivision
forest of the DheRkanal State, in Oris-
sa. The ground color was pure white,
while the stripes were a deep reddish
black. The tigeress was in good con-

due to disease.
Abnormally colored tigers are rare.
In 1899 two well grown white tigers
were shot on the Jaipur tea estate in
the Debroghur district within a short
time. 1t was reasonably supposed that
