 It is important that the prospector name the surveyor wE3rl he has en- gagged for the subsequent survey, for in case no one is named the govern ment is obliged to appoint one with in eight days. and this appointee may prove unsatisfactory to the prospec- tor. or he may charge extraordinarily for his services. Forty days are al lowed for the prospector to complete his survey and draw the plans for the same. Prominent and well known natural monuments such as the high CT neighbcring peaks, must be de- scrioed in the survey, and all ad)ac- ent claims and free ground clearly shown and marked upon the plan. During this period the prospector must also publish a notice of his de- nouncement in the official newspaper of the state in which his claim is To- cated
 Plans and survey records must be filed in triplicate one copy being returned later upon grant of title. and the same remain with the local mining agent fo- Teriod of four months from the date of filing CT ap- plication upon the expiration of which either the title is assured or the ap- plication rejected Upon receipt of the title the prospector is called upon to pay sl for each pertenencia if the number be g or less, or soc per per tencia if the number exceeds 20. A yearly tax of s5 Ter pertenencia is exacted, being payable in equal in stallments every four months.
 The expense incident to several de- nouncements as well as the initial outlay in mining operations, are nigh, and the graduate, trusting to techni- cal education to make his way as a -prospectcr in Mexico and thinking it is easy to secure a good position in one of the numreous centers of Mex ican mining industry is liable to find himself stranded and lucky to secure a position carrying with it probably $50 per month gold.

RICH COPPER
 FROM BLACK
 HAWK WINzE
Assay Returns Show Nineteen Per Cent Copper Below 450I Level - Arizona Michigan Cuts Small Vein

Nineteen per cent copper is an as
 say return from sample of ore talk
 en yesterday from the Black Hawk
 winze of the Arizona Commercial
 Copper company, at a depth of 130
 feet below the 450-foot level. The ore
 was not assayed for silver, but prob ably runs tan or twelve ounces in the
 white metal. as does the ore in the adjoining Great Eastern mine at the
 same dspth. The Black Hawk winze
 has only about twenty feet to go to reach the 600-foot level. a which
 depth a drift will be run 300 feet east
 to the Great Eastern line and also west to connect with the drift from
 the Eureka shaft, the winze and shafe being about 600 feet apart The
 Black Hawk vein on the intermediate
 level. at the winze, is forty-five wide.
 and at the Eureka shaft is believed
 to sixty or seventy feet wide, judg-
 ing from the fact that the Eureka shaft was in the vein for a length of l,nanety-fiVa feet below the '6O0foot level
 The vicinity of the Eureka shaft is buy place, and construction work IS duNdnclns Fdptuiy. Niouihs lOi 1ac ore and coke bins was completed some time ago and will soon be finished for the smelter; also grading for the high line railroad spur to the ore and coke bins will be ready for track laying within 8 few days. The warehouse and office building was finished more than a week ago and is now occupied. The forms are be- ing constructed for the foundations of the smelter powerhouse and for the new duble drum hoisting engine. All the structural steel and the machin- cry for the 400-ton smelling plant was ordered some time ago, and the contract calls for delivery June 1. It
 is expected that August 15 will see

The same spirit that launched the overland prairie schooners upon their long wasted journey in 1S49. some what modified by reason and caution, is today sending prospectors into Mexico in great numbers. The ma jority of these are fresh men young from the mining schools. and 1t is chiefly for their benefit that this arti- cle is written. A minority are older msn hardened by experience in the mining districtsto of the west and in urd to many of the hardships en- countered in Mexico's mountains As a rule. they have acquired enough Spanish to enable them to conduct their affairs without the aid of an interpreter. and to handle peon min CTS where necessary. Moreover. they find no difficulty in adapting them selves ta the rugged conditions of Mexican life as they require no luxur- ies. and but few of the necessities.
 A good working knowledge of the Spanish language is one of the requi- sites for a successful mining engineer in Mexico Many of the young grad uates whom l have met do not pos sess this. The legal proceedings in- cident to inc Announcement of min Ierai claims. while simple enough In themselves. will not only involve one ignorant of the language, with cum ming lawyers but often will lay him open to extortion A brief summary of the Mexican mining laws will show the many pitfalls for the unwary.
 Mexican Mining Laws.
 The Mexican mining claim of per tencia is 100 m. square. Five percen- tis, slightly exceeding in area the American mining claim, is usually the minimum denounced. although fin the richer auriferious district. single per tenencies are held and worked. The law permits Announcements oi mn eral claims on either public or private domain. but in the latter case, pro hibits the use of standing timber. or of other superficial resources. Reason able ground for dump and mine ouil5- .ings may be arranged for with the land owner, at asse ssed val'le. or m the case of his reflsaL can be cen demned for that purpose by due pr9- cess of law. Building stons oil coal, and placer ground are hele as the ln- alienable property of ths l1aaownei. and hence cannot be denounced on rrivate lands. Further changes in this law are looked fer sho tly.

BISBEE EXTENSION
 SHOWS GOOD GROUND
avoTabIe Indications in Drift On the Four Hundred
 Level

Tn the drift on the four hundred foot level of the Bisbee Extension, three shifts are being continued at work and results during the present week have been very satisfactory and encouraging. The drift has now been run 300 feet and for several days 1t has been in broken ground. which would indicate that the ob- jective ledge was near. though when the drift was started it was expected that four hundred feet would be re quired to reach the ledge.
 The cutting of this drift was start ed six weeks ago and the distance al ready attained makes good record for work
 There are now twenty-eight men employed at the Bisbee Extension camp and about seven hundred feet of work has been done

 The shaft of the Superior < Globe. which $ down 155 feet. has been in manganese scanned with lime, for several days. which shows no copper, but may carry some silver. The man ganese is considered. however. a Ia vorable indication of ore.

Stomach Agony
Abolish the Cause, and Misery and Distress of Indigestion Will Be
 Thinq of the Past.

Can indigestion be cured? Hun dreds of thousands of people who suffer from belching of gas; bilious ness, sour stomach. fullness, nausea. shortness of breath, bad taste in mouth, foul breath, nervousness and other distressing symptoms, are ask ing themselves that question daily.
 And if these same doubting dys- peptics could only read the thousands of sincere letters from people who once suffered as badly as they do now, but who have been quickly and ermanently cured by the use of Mi-o-na, the mighty dyspepsia rem edy that cures by removing the cause, they would go to Larson Drug O. this very day and get a large box of Mi-o-na tablets. and start themselves on the right road to health at once.

 MT. La Baume said: We have been accused of working in the interest of the railroads. Some say that we have been influenced by railroad officials. The last statement is not true for there has been no convrsation on this subject with any official or agent of the railroad.

We do not know how they look at it or whether they are taking any interest in it. But we know that if anybody is affected it will be the men employ ed by the roads"
 MT. Seamands, who has been con- ductor for the Southern Pacific out of Tucson for several years spoke of another phase of the question. He said: Some of the men who are agi- tating this legislation argue that the railroads themselves would be benefit ted. that there would be an increased traffic. That might be true in a thickly settled country with stations three to five miles a part but it would not have that effect in Arizona where the passenger business has always been run at a loss. My reports will show that have often made the run betwen Yuma and Tucson without picking up a passenger in the 250 miles.

SHAKESPEARE sPAKE IN.
English the Dominant Language of the
World Today.

Washington Post.
At the beginning of the eighteenth
century the English language was
spoken by 2O,OO0,O00 people, At the
beginning of the twentieth century
that tongue was spoken by 10000 900
people, and it is not extravagant tc
predict tnat English will be the Ian
guage of more than half of the then
erisfing Caucasian race upon the ad-
vent of the twenty-first century.
An accomplished linguist made re-
mark that if he would court his lady
love he would speak Italian, when
praying to God he would employ Span
ish, when conversing with friends he
would use French, and when making
trade there was nothing like the
English. And that is the secret of
the marvellous expansion of the use of
the English tongue. This is the age
of commerce, and there is directness
in our language that is found in no
ether; and candor is the soul of all
legitimate trade.
When the Plantagenets first reigned
in England Chaucer was not yet born,
nor did he arrive until the war of the
roses. He found Latin the tongue of
polite speech, and even Bacon wrote
his masterpieces in that language.
Elizabeth spoke it. It was the tongue
Of the court and of diplomacy, and
such it remained until supplanted by
the French, which is yet, perhaps, the
language of diplomacy in congresses
of the S'powers.'
Put this is a very different age from
that when Louis XIV reigned, when
Bolingbroke was a minister, when
Voltaire was the first man of letters in
the world. 1t is the age of trade, and
the English tongue has taken it's place
as the dominant speech of the world.
And why not? Shakespeare wrote
it, as did Milton. Chatham spoke it,
as did Burke. Dryden and Pope, Swift
and Addison employed it. It is the
richest language in the world, having
gathered its inexhaustible stores from
every other tongue it could lay hands
on. 1t is the language of history and
of poetry, of debate, and of eloquent
defamation; but above all, it is the
language of commerce, and bargains
are struck by means of it. While the
first senate in the world" hung on
the splendid periods of 'the grand old
man." Chinese merchants we're ex-
changing tea for cotton fabrics upon
terms expressed in the tongue that
spake."

tie, potatoes and pumpkins" This Is
a sad commentary on the country peo-
pie, and our interesting correspond
ent did not say what the city people
would go to see, and we infer that
they, too, take in shows as a kind OF
a side line. Now, seriously, the above
is all too true, and until our State
Fair is what it is intended to be an
exhibit of the State products, and not
the gathering place for thousands of
fakirs, side shows, catchpenny traps,
ETC., which is an insult to the moral
ity and intelligence of the farmer and
his family. An agricultural fair
should not be upon an equality with
a circus, but they are getting to be
more of a circus than anything else,
and if such things as are common at
many fairs are necessary to draw
crowds it we're far better to not have
one at all, than to have it at the ex-
pense of decency. But we believe
these things have been cut out at our
Capital City, and we hope they have,
and that the fair is clean, moral,
affair, calculated to promote the well
fare of and arouse interest in the ag-
ricultural life of our loved State.
