pinnacle of patriotic song writing in that
anthem; he breathed into every line of
it the rugged spirit of the Puritan faith

real atmos- here of early New England.
1t is we'll that this noble anthem of
America was written by minister of
the gospel, for hardly could another have
so perfectly reflected the feeling of the
country's founders.
And l doubt not that if one could make
a pilgrimage to the homes and haunts of
all those who have written the songs that
have sung themselves into the hearts
of the whole people of this land, and
have lived on the lips of one generation
after another, we would find that most,

miles to bring his man to the bar of
Canadian justice. The detective first
turned his attention to Davidson's
wife. That lady was busily engaged
in making preparations to leave Cana
da, when Murray intercepted a let
ter to her showing that the defaulter
was in Mexico. Thereupon he pre-
pared extradition papers and started
following Mrs. Davidson's route. He
left on November and was joined in
Chicago by Mr.. Bartlett, an accountant
of the Bank of Hamilton, who knew
Davidson personally, and accompanied
Murray to FL Paso, Texas, on the
border of Mexico.
They reached Ell Paso on November
16, and Murray paid visit to his
friend, Manager Davis, of the Wells
Fargo Express company. This gentle
man furnished him with letters to sew
eral persons in Mexico, among them
being Supt. Comfort, of the Mexicon
Central railroad. Murray called upon
Comfort at Ciudad Juarez. He had al
ready located Davidson, under the
name of Graham, checking cars for the
railroad company. The superintendent
telegraphed to Graham to come to
Ciudad Juarez. He also sent for the
mayor of the city, polite, suave Next
can gentleman, to whom Murray ex-
planned his mission and desire to have
Davidson taken into custody. The
mayor bowed magnifcently, smiled,
bowed again, and said that he would
be ''pleasupably agitated" to have Of
f1cers ready to arrest the malefactor
outrageous when the latter arrived
Mr.. Comfort stated that Davidson
would be there in about four houHs,

Four hours later the street outside

imposing rattle of arms as the march

the window Murray perceived body
of 60 men clad in full uniform and
armed with carbines. At their head
the intendente and mayor stood

sition of organist with a church choir
to which he belonged. Charles was 40
years old and immensely popular.
: HVer to the front where religious
exercises were concerned, in October,
1892, he had arranged for a grand song
recital by the choir, when Just as
plans for the entertainment were in
full swing he vanished mysteriously.
Then, much to the horror of his ac-
Quaintances. 1t transpired that the en-
terprising Mr.. Davidson had passed a
series Of forged notes on the Bank of
Hamilton, some of them the notes of
nonresident presons, and others the
alleged notes of farmers who had
never signed them. The department
of justice promptly detailed Wilson
Murray on the case, and that saga
cious hunter of wrongdoers called on
James Turnbull, manager of the bank,
to talk over the matter with him.
From the first the manager was in
sistent that Davidson be brought back
and punished, no matter at what cost.
1t was not alone the sum of money
taken from the bank in this particular
instance that influenced Turnbull in
his determination. Following the prin-
'ciple which leads a farmer to nail a
dead crow to a post as a warning to
other despoilers of his crops, the
bank manager argued that to con
vict Davidson would deter othe,
would-be forgers from exercising their
talents at the expense of his treasury
vaults.
IF you have to follow this fellow
60 the ends of the earth, do so. but
get him." quoth Turnbull grimly. 1T

Clearly there was no room for ar

later Davidson made his appearance
on the scene and Murray pointed him

The mayor was in transports of de-

claimed, as the valiant 60, without a

their lone victim. Behold you the de-

The detectEe's emotion was too

Cooking Potatoes.

Place potatoes in skillet. iron
saucepan, or upon an asbestos circle;
cover tightly with turned over sauce
pan, plate or lid. Set on the back of
the stove. When done, the effect will
be the same as that of baking. Instead
of pairing, boiling and MASKING pota-
toes, bake them this way or in an
oven, remove from skins, season, and
mash, and the flavor is delicious, much
better than that of ordinary mashed
potatoes, especially if, in removing the
skins, care is taken to get all the con-
tents out.

The unwaterirg of the shaft below the 600 will then be the work of only a few days. In q week sinking will be resumed at the Black Hawk workings, where the winze at fifty-six feet below the 500-foot level is in high grade car bonate ore, the ore body being the same as that on the Great Eastern mine adjoining. Developments during the next few months st the Eureka and Black Hawk shafts should prove very important Construction work at the Eureka shaft is proceeding steadily and August l5 should see the shelter com

rhs Promising Miami saction.

Reports from the properties in the Miami section are all of an encouraging nature. The Miami company is busy preparing its big mine for production, sinking the largest mining shaft in the southwest, and arranging for the con struetion of the first unit of 4000-ton Iconcentrator. The Inspiration company Is pushing the development of it's fine property, which gives promise of equal ing the Miami. Developments on the Keystone are very satisfactory and give assurance of another successful Lew isohn Notation when in the opinion of the management the property has been sufficiently explored
 Tho Live Oak Development company is proving up great sulphide deposit on its property adjoining the Keystone. The long tunnel which is in low grade ore nearly it's entire length has shown great improvement the last hundred feet driven, the orc averaging 2 per cent copper, and the breast being now in 21s per cent ore. The formation AS SNHlbt anu luc NohhAl1Ouo ilC sttiiioob identical with those which obtain in the Miami mine. The copper exsts in the form of chalcocite and the recent work in opening the tunnel has dis closed veinlets or seams of copper vary ing in thickness from q knife blade to 2ha/inches. The tunnel has been driven to within 300 feet of the vertical shaft, and will be continued to connection with it at a depth of 2S7 feet, and if driven beyond the shaft to the northern boundary of the property, this tunnel win attain vertical depth eff $50 feet. Just across the line dividing the Live, Oak from the Keystone property, the General Development company has de veloped sulphide on the Keystone by drilling with churn drills. The Live Oak will soon resume sinking it's ver- tical shaft.

NEW PEOPLE FOR MAJESTIC.

Beginning with next Thursday night $ performance at the Majestic, two new players win join the James r. Lee comedy company.
 They are Ethel Thornton, who win replace Thel Thatcher, and Norman Phillips, who will i'll in the gap made by the departure of Jess Sidney, q week ago.
 Miss Thornton played long engage ment with one of the leading comedy companies in Los Angeles and for some months has been on the road in vaude- vile. The fact that she played seven continuous weeks in one house in Tue. son speacks well as to her ability as an entertainer. She does speciality work, as well as being good comedy actress.
 Mr. Phillips is from San Francisco and is said to Do good stock man for character roles.
 Manager Tupper Is also figuring on soubrette, to open in short time.
 Miss Thatcher will conclude her en- gagcment here next Wednesday nigat and win return to Los Angeles at once. Don Cupid is said to be the cause of her return 10 the coast.

Developments in the East Country.

The eastern end of Globe district is not tagging in the race for mining hon. ors. The most notable of recent de. velopments in that locality have been in the Superior & Boston and the Ari- zona Commercial properties. The for. mer company has opened phenomenally rich ore in the winze being sunk fyom the 45O-foot level of the Great Eastern mine. A depth of 1i5 feet below the level has been reached and the winze has continued in carbonate and glance ore that can scarcely be equaled in the district. Recent assays of ore from this winze have indicated values of from l4 per cent to IS per cent in cop per, and l0la, l2 and l5 ounces in sil- yer to the ton. This winze will be sunk eigbty-fve feet further, at which depth a crosscut will be run to connect with the McGaw shaft at the 6o0-foot level. Sinking is in progress at the MeGaw shaft at the depth of l75 feet, and the raise to meet it is now ,ninety-fve feet above the 40o,foot level.

the Superstition mountains, twenty miles east eff Mesa, Geo. $. Andrus nav. ing obtained a long time bond on the Mammoth group and other gold claims there, and will have associated with him in re-opening the mines Dr. w. A. Holt, of Globe.
 MT. Andrus has been prospecting the Mammoth property under 8 lease for the past six months or longer, and has satisfied himself that the old mine car ries sufficient values in gold to justify its rehabilitation, and that there is the further possibility that bonanza orc may again be developed. Mr. Andrus has explored the Mammoth vein for a length of 100 feet in the old work. ings, at depth of l26 feet, which he found to average about nine feet in width and assay from $S to BIO per ton in gold; it is ideal free milling ore, and 8 vein of its size and average value offers fine opportunity for developing a very profitable enterprise. Messrs. lkndrus and Holt control 5000 feet of the vein.
 The Mammoth mine produced over $500,000 during the period of its active operation, and tho values were mined between the surface and the 200-foot level; and no rock was milled that ran under $l5 per ton in gold. Gold field is advantageously situated, within 800 feet of the Mesa Roosevelt road. built by the government, and the Roos- evelt electric power line being oly a short distance away, ahording an op- portunity of obtaining electricity at a reasonable price, for both power and lighting purposes
 A company will in all probability be organized to develop and operate the properties bonded. The new shaft, which is 100 feet deep, will be sunk deeper and connected at the lo0.foot and 200foot levels with the old shaft, which is permanently out of commission but wiIl be valuable for ventilation. The 20-stamp mill on the Mammoth property will be rebuilt, and will prob ably have to be moved, as it stands upon ground that has been undermined to within short distance of the sur face. It will be month or more be- fore regular work is started upon the Mammoth property.

There is necessarily good deal of sameness and repetition in mining re views, but it is doubtful if any other district in the west affords so much good material for & weekly mining story as can be gathered here in Globe: The only difficulty with which the local reporter has to contend is the disin- elination, and in some instances abso.
 ute refusal, of mine superintendents to give out Information of the develop ments in the properties under their con trOl. Whether this policy is of their own choosing, CT Is required by the board of directors, the newspaper publisher will always believe that it is a mis- taken one. Viewing the question broad ly, mining corporation which invites public subscriptions to its capital stock, and has hun ireds or thousands Of shareholders, as inc ease may be, IS morally obligated 10 furnish accurate information of the eompany's opera tons, and there is TO better medium TUT lhat purpose than the iocai heWS' paper, to which the community looks for news of the progress of home en- t'rprises. If mine officials could only appreciate the fact that it is far bet
 Ter to give out correct information of
 the operations of their companies than
 to have garbled and erroneous reports published, greater confidence in the
 mine management would be established
 mat could not be otherwise than help
 ful to the company. 1t is rarely that
 newspaper man can be found who would abuse the confidence of mire superintendent; but the publisher of a paper in town chiefly supported by inning, feels in duty bound to mike inning news leading feature, and if
