AMAZING RICHNESS
IN LATEST STRIKE
Arizona is Excited Over New Find in
Granite Wash Range, Near
SaIome.

Rock of amazing richness Is being
taken out of the new gold bonanza
which was struck last week In the
Granite Wash range, near Salome,
Arizona, according to the reports from
the various districts about the new
camp. F1tz Mac, a we'll known mining
writer, has just returned from visit
to the district. and in detailed re-
port submitted to the Arizona Repub.
lican. he declared that he expects to
see many more rich strikes in the dis
trict.
The latest strike is FIVE miles from
a railroad and in northern Yuma coun-
ty, II is in the same country as the
old Vulture. the Congress, the Octave
and many other wealth producers Of
the Arizona territory.
The geological formation throughout
this country Is mostly simple, in its
general expression. but in detail It's
often very complex. The region con-
sists of a great plain sloping down to
the Gulf Of California at a very gentle
incline, and thickly studded all over
with short, mountain ranges. These
ranges vary a good deal in their litho-
logical character. but there is still
considerable similarity 1t is a Won
derfully beautiful country. II looks
like a great yellow sea thickly studded
with islands II IS one OF the most
beautiful countries imaginable. and
there is plenty of surface water In all
sections of It, This Is owing TO the
geological character of the ranges
which frequently make synclinal val
leyS that hold water like a trough
beneath the surface The region Is
now traversed by we'll known roads
and water Is obteinable at frequent
intervals. 80 that there is no longer
any danger In prospecting. Many OF
the ranges contain granite core with
the sedimentary series we'll exposed
on their tanks and penetrated by dikes
and veins There has been very little
II any explosive volcanic action. but
in some places the extrndcd eruptiycS
are very extensive, This is particu-
larly true in the Eagle Tall range
which in point Of beauty exceeds them
all. though most OF the eruptlves there
are dactites which have had no in
f1uence on naturalization. having been
extruded long after the period OF min
eralizaton There are also some late
basals which have ma connection with
the naturalization.
In his report Fitz Mac says in part
II Is the astounding values in the
new bonanza strike that has attracted

useless, may be reclaimed, and says
that on this basis 1t would be possible
TO furnish 5000 farms OF 20 acres
each. which would provide for a popu-
lation of about 10000 persons. He
therefore recommends a systematic
examination OF the water resources or

Estimated That Half . Million Dollars
In Groenbacks Is Destroyed
Every Year.

The secretary Of the United States
treasury estimates that about half q
million dollars worth OF money is de-
stroyed in our country every year by
one means or another. The money
disappears in very odd ways For ex-
ample, an Indiana woman complained
Of the loss OF $40 bill which had
gotten into a dish of dandelion greens.
1t was chopped up and eaten by the
unconscious family and the loss was
discovered only when the corner of
the bill was found among the greens
left over in the dish
A large quantity Of greenbacks is
eaten up every year by rats. Some
times the rodents leave remnants SO
that the bills can be redeemed, but
often they take the money in its en-
tirety. One specially odd case re-
ported was where a robin engaged in
the laudable enterprise Of nest build
ing, few into q window andn bore
away in its bill 800 bill which had
been left on a table. using the soft
texture for the nest Enough of the
greenback was recovered to warrant
its redemption.

burned the flame of Boston culture

slightly ahead he saw his companion
make suspicious motion toward his
hip-pocket- Without hesitation he
drew his revolver and shot him. The
stranger dropped like log. The cow
