CHRISTMAS DAY.

Christmas will be observed on Satur-
day next, on which day there will be no
issue of the Caucasian, and therefore
we would today tender our heartfelt
greetings to our friends everywhere.
It is true that Christmas comes but
once year, but it is. the day of days,
the event of events in which is chron-
icled the birth of Christ, the Saviour
of men.
1t is the day of good cheer; ION earth,
peace; to men, good will.
In this greeting is the epitome OF all
that which may be dear to mankind. 1t
is the message freighted with love, the
one thing in which every human being
is interested.
The Love of Christ for man is in
finite. It is unreasonable and beyond
the comprehension of mortals. 1t is
ennobling. 1t is the one sentiment, the
one feeling of the human heart that
makes the whole world kin. I"
And then there is Santa Claus!
And Santa Claus is expected on
Christmas eve night when all good
children, girls and boys, are asleep. He
will come from the far away region of
ice and snow, as he has in the thouc
ands of years past, speeding on his
mysterious journey and filing the day
after-day anticipation and the night
after-night dreams of children.
In contemplating the day when the
birth OF Christ is being commemorated
and when the hearts of little children
are being filed with rejoicing, let lis be
mindful of the fact that our litie ones
of today viii be the men and the WON
en- of tomorrow, and in thai spirit of
love LET there be no dissipation of their
implicit faith in, to them at least, the
ever mysterious relation of the jolly
little fellow, whom the skeptics and the
critics would destroy.
The realities of life. with all its cares
and responsibilities, will come to them
all too soon, and while the minds and
the hearts of those we love and are to
US the dearest things of earth, let them
one and all revel in that joyfulness
which is Undesirable.
1t would seem cruel to shatter the
ideals of childhood.
And while observing the day in all its
significance, we should also be mindful
of those whose LOT is not as it should be
and who therefore may not be in the
enjoyment of Christmas as it should be.
About lis or near us there may be one
or more who may be rejoieed by the
loveful words of good cheer, and to
these may be added some more sub
stantial recognition of their needs.
Let every one at Christmas be as
generous as can be within his means,
but do not forget the poor and the
friendless. In brief, let Christmas be
merry. Let the genial spirit of love
seek every nook and make bright and
cheerful the places and the mortals who
have experienced the harsher side of
humanity
Remember the day and fulfill as far
and as much as possible its obligations
and its duties and there will come IN
return the brightfnlness and the joyful
ness within ones heart which will more
than compensate for any sacrifice which
should be dictated by Love.

Alpha Group of Mines Sold.

This week w. A. Mcguire, of Chi cago, concluded arrangements for the
 purchase of the Alpha group of mines, situated at Layne Springs, about fif-
 teen miles north of Kingman. The
 property was owned by the estate of the late Foster s. Dennis, Peter Calf cry and Mrs. k. B. Smith. The pur- chase price is unknown.
 The Alpha group of mines has been recognized as one of the best of the properties in the Stockton Hill section of Wallapai district, having at one time been big producer of ore bear ing silver, gold and copper. The vein is one of the largest in that section, and oatcrops many claim lengths. It has been opened by two adit drifts, one being under the old ore shoot, while the other is just entering the ore body. The lowest of these drifts will cut the ore body about l75 feet below the old level, where it is ex pected large body of high grade ore will be opened up. It is the intention of the new owners of the mine to drive this drift several hundred feet as soon as possible, after which connection will be made with the shaft to the sur face. A few years ago the Fletcher Mining company shipped several hun dred tons of ore from the lower grade, which gave results of 25S to the ton in silver, gold and copper. The high grade ore carried values above l00S to the ton, shipments being made to Ben son, San Francisco and Fl Paso. The location of the mines in one of the best mineral belts in the territory makes it at once desirable property and at the same time it's operation on large scale will give zest to other work now in progress in the same lacality. The work has been well done on the mines and it will require only a small amount of money to put them on a producing basis.
 Dr. L. D. Godshall, who has large mining interest in this section, brought the mines to the attention of MT. Mcguire, and it was to his high appreciation of the merits of the mines that the sale was brought about. Dr. Godshall considered the Alpha mines among the best properties of the coun- ty. and at one time made large cash offer for them. which the owners re- fused. MT. Mcguire certainly secured an excellent property in taking the Alpha, and future work will certainly bear Us out in this view. The editor of the MINER has known the mines since their discovery and can honestly recommend them to the new owner.

Project to Furnish Power to Tucson

To investigate the possibilities of SC. curing power from the waters which flow through Sabine and other canyons in the Catalinas, three capitalists from Cleveland, Ohio, who are report ed to represent the Bishop traction in- terests, made trip today to the can- yon.
 It is understood that they will in- vestigate the storage project with a view to erect a power plant in the canyon which will furnish power for the city of Tucson. Furthermore, the project includes big reservoir from which water will be secured which will be ample to irrigate thousands of acres in the vicinity of the canyon.
 The Sabino canyon project has been under consideration for a long time. Engineers who have made an investi- gatiOn state that there is no question but that ample power can be secured to operate large plant. It is stated that in the event that the Cleveland parties are satisfied with the project they will spend several hundred thou sand dollars in Improvements s.-Tucson Citizen.

Hammer, Massey and Shaw, lessees have suspended operations of that property pending negotiations with the Ideal Mining company. It is be- lieved the Ideal company will not re. new the lease, but instead will equip the property with hoisting machinery of greater capacity than that now on the ground and renew operations on a larger scale than ever. The mine is developed to depth of 1000 feet. The machinery is inadequate for deeper explorations. s.-PrescOtt Courier.

Florence GoIdroad Exploration Com

One of the newest mining companies to operate in the'Goldroad field is the Florence Goldroad Exploration com- pany, composed of Goldroad and Los Angeles people. The capitalization of the company is for l,000, 900 one dollar shares, 600, 1000 shares in the treasury.
 C. A. Jones, who is treasurer of the company, is one of the original loca- tors of the mines and is well and fa- vorably known in Kingman and Gold road, where he lived prior to going to Goldtied. The management of the company is in good, dependable hands, and the expenditure of the money re- ceived from the sales of stock will be expeditiously spent in the development of the mines.
 The group of mines owned by this corporation, is situated about two miles west of Goldroad and the same distance north of the Tom Reed. The same general characteristic of nclos- ing rocks in the Goldroad mines is ap parent in the Florence Goldroad Z. cup, and the Goldroad vein can be traced by it's pronounced vein char acleristic into the ground of the new company. The veins are large and while showing low values in the out crop give every promise of rich treas ures below the leached zone. The ore Is ideal for cyaniding, and now that electricity as power has superseded that of gasoline, and at less than one third its cost, very low grade ore can be economically treated in the district. The enclosing walls, the vein mater ial and every geological feature in and about the mines predicate the opening of great and rich ore bodies in these properties at depth. It will be re- membrred that the Gold Road ana Tom Reed mines, now the bonanza properties of the Pacific coast, were low grade in the outcrop and only depth has qualified them to enter the lists of gold mines against all corners. Every representative of the geological survey of the United States has but added to the fame of the Gold Road mine and the district in which it is situated. To the west of the Florence Goldroad group is the once famous Moss, which in it's palmy days pro- duced some of the richest gold ore ever taken from quartz mine in the United States. The company will at once begin operations on the mines. sinking large prospect shaft to depth of several hundred feet, from which point all the veins in the group can be readily cut.
 Mir. Jones, of the company, passed through Kingman few days ago on his way to Los Angeles, where Le will consult with his fellow directors on matters of equipment for the property.

A railroad is now being surveyed from Yuma along the east bank of the Colorado river to a connection with the Salt Lake railroad, somewhere in Utah. Engineers are now in the field and it is the intention to bring the line north by way of Silver district, Ehrenberg, Bouse, McCracken, and along the west base of Wallapai moun- tain to Kingman. From this point north the road will probably either connect with the Western Railway of Arizona or construct new line of road through the Wallapai valley to Utah. The road will have connection with the Spreckles road to San Diego. The building of this line of road would mean much to the mining and other interests of this and Yuma counties. The mining interests of the section of country to be traversed by the road are immense and the railroad would broaden them out until they would be- come second in importance to no other part of the territory. Our people and the people of Yuma county should do everything in their power to bring the project to a successful issue.
