Mohaye,s rurauoise Mines

Says the Mohave County Miner: There are twenty-five or thirty men at work on the turquoise mines in and around Mineral park. The companies are not confining themselves entirely to the blue gem, but are looking for any thing in the line of semi i-precious stones. Some good quality malachite has been found in the copper veins on the out skirts of the turquoise zone and this is bringing from one dollar to five dollars per pound. This stone having found market, is causing some prospecting throughout the hills of the park section for greater quantity of the ore. Mrs. Cordelia Kay, who is now in Los An geles, is said to have sold more than 5000 worth of turquoise from her mines at Mineral park and has made some good investments in its manufac- ture in that city. She recently enter ed into a working agreement with company and is getting out the gem stone on marketing basis.

The Florence Prison

The Florence prison will be complet- cd in May, it is thought, when finished, it will be one of the best designed buildings for its purpose in the south west. There are features in its con struetion to be found in no other build ing adapted to the same purpose. For instance, in the prison it will be impos- sible for trusties or other prisoners to overpower the gate-keeper and remov- ing his keys, unlock the gates and es- cape. The gate-keeper, in his little turret over the. gate, will not follow the antequated custom of letting down the key at the end of string when one wishes to go in or out. By mech anism invented by MT. Fitzhugh, the gates can be locked and unlocked from the tower and, should the gate-keeper be overpowered, still the convict would not escape, as he would find himself confronted with combination such as is used on safes, which will control the locks on the gates. Within the LOGO foot wall the prison is laid out in the shape of fve-pointed star. The original appropriation, $l2O,000, will admit of the construction of but three of the points of this star, yet when these three wings are built the whole will have finished appearance.

Rich Silver Ore.

A carload of the richest ore ever sacked up in the Mineral Park basin is now on the dump of the Home Pas
 time mine awaiting shipment to the shelter, says the Mohave County Miner. This ore is literally laced together. with silver wires, while the surface of the ore is incrusted with scales of the pure white metal. It is claimed that the stopes of the mine show great tonnage of the same class of ore and that every day but adds to the richness or the property. Blocks of ore weighing SIX and eight hundred pounds are lifted from the drift at the l25 foot level, that are masses of silver. It would now be the right thing to get one of tkese blocks of ore and keep it'for exhibi- tion at the Yukon exposition at Seattle.

Strict Construction of Law.

The announcement from Tombstone by District Attorney Williams that he intended to enforce the provisions of the Duffy act, to -the best of his ability, and that he considered such act includ- ed in its scope, all games of whatsoever kind, has caused considerable stir in Bisbee. Members of the golf club, who have been playing for trophies, and the rival basketball teams of the Y. M. c. A., who have been playing for the Gill man cup, are wondering what is to become their favorite sport. Sheriff White has notified all places of amuse- ment to comply with the law and it IS believed that this is being done.

More Machinery Received.

Another large consignment of machin- cry for the Colorado River Dredging company passed through Kingman this week to Chloride, where it is being for warded to the river, says the Miner. A large force of men are at work on the big scows and it will not be long until the machinery will be put in them and the plants put to work on the rich river bars. The dredger is to be one of the largest ever built for river work and will 'be capable of handling about 2,O00 yards of gravel. All the modern appliances will be in corporated in this plant.

Want Allotments Cancelled.

Considerable interest is being taken at this time by the stockmen of Coco nino county on account of the allet- ments to Indians west of the Little Col orado river, says the Flagstaff cores pondent of the Republican. Very few, if any, of the Indians are living on their allotments, and, consequently, hold them to the disadvantage of the stockmen. They come across the rver at intervals, and when they do, general ly get into dispute with the stockmen and these collisions are engendering ill., feeling between the two races. Early in the month, F. s. Breen of Flagstah introduced a memorial to congress in the, council asking for cancellation or the allotments to Indians west of the Little Colorado river. This memorial was passed, and about the same time the Northern Arizona Cattlemen s as- sociation had Ralph Cameron take up the matter with the office of Indian af- fairs at Washington, and, as a result, some correspondence has been received from the Indian commissioner which leads the cattlemen to believe that the matter will be satisfactorily adjusted. If the allotments to the Indians were made on the east, instead of the west, side of the Little Colorado river, it would put an end to matter that is giving the cattlemen of Coconino coun- ty much concern at the present time.

Francis M Hartmann, attorney for the Southern Pacific company, says: The next great camp boom vii! be Johnson, which is in the same noun tains as Courtland and just north of the main line of the Southern Pacific. Few people know that railroad is now being built from the main line of the Southern Pacific to Johnson, just few miles. Johnson camp already has a record of production and it gives every promise of rivaling Courtland.

CONSERVATION and fear were written

prison the other morning when 40 de-
tectives, wearing black masks, filed
down the long corridor and silently
took their places in parallel lines at
the end of the tiers of cells, the San

of detectives to the prison every
morning is custom Of police work
handed down from time immemorial.
The prisoners arrested during the "a
hours Of the day before are brought
out and marched between the two files
like captives running the gantlet. The
detectives then observe the faces of
the prisoners carefully, so they will

rule has worked both ways, however.

Mean Trick of BaIlantine That Prob
ably Made Much Trouble for His
Friend Blank.

Capt. ]. F. Chase of Veteran City,
Fla, was in Washington last month
to register his forty-seventh airship

as the inventor of the hoop-skirt.
Discussing the hoop-skirt's remark
able success, Capt. Chase said to a
reporter:
The success was due to the
skirts strangeness. Women like
strange things. By catering to wom-
en-, by studying their taste man can
twist them around his finger"
The veteran officer smiled.
"Ballantine," he said, "came in
late to a song recital in Palm Beach,
and there wasn't a vacant seat in the
house.
"Ballantine noticed Mrs. Jerome
Blank. Mrs. Jerome Blank, he knew,
had very handsome husband that
she kept strict watch oversize didn't
like him to associate with any OF the
fair sex.
"Ballantine, edging near to Mrs.
Blank, who had an excellent seat, said
in loud voice to friend:
"'Who was that uncommonly pretty
girl saw Jerome Blank talking to on
the pier?'
In about four seconds Mrs. Blank
was gone, and Ballantine was seated
comfortably in her chair.
