M. J. Dempsey Dead.

M. J. Dempsey, one of the best known mine owners of this county, died at Needles Thursday evening of a complication of disorders. He had been brought in from Todd Basin the first of the week by William O'Dea and on advice of physicians had taken the sick m an to Needles, where it was expected the milder climate and lower altitude would prolong his life, but his sutferings increased and he passed away late in the evening of Thursday. The funeral was held yesterday after noon, burial being had at Needles.
 Deceased came to this county about fifteen years ago and worked in many of the big mines, afterward becoming interested in the Pilgrim group of mines with William O'Dea. The past several years he was ill the greater part of the time. His many friends will regret his death.

The Washington County News re- ports that a corps of engineers has been making an inspection of a route frnm Lund,in Utah, through the Buck skin plateau to the Grand Canyon. The road is not to be entirely for scenic purposes, although it will pass through the most magnificent part of the great canyon section, but will also have for its object the opening up of a vast timber tract and into the heart of the copper mining region north of the great fault. Several routes for this railroad have been looked over and it is probable that one that will run for some distance along the north rim of the canyon will eventually be the one selected. The northern part of the county has no railroad facilities, but it is sure to get a line connecting either with the south part of the county or Utah within the next year. The north ern part of Arizona i> covered by vast tracts of timber and big deposits of copper. The land as whole is a terra incognito t. he white man.
