3co;ooo$ for Ray Central.

Operating as the Ray Central, the
reorganized company owning the Kel-
vim Calumet property in the Kelvin
district, consisting of about twelve
claims and a mill, will start an active
campaign of development work in the
next thirty days.
The Lewisohns of New York, the
biggest copper mine promoters in the
east, have taken hold of the PROPOSE
tion and now 300, ,OOOS is available in
cash for the prosecution of the work.
One million eight hundred thousand
dollars more is to follow in INSTALL
ments extending over a period of years.
w. B. Twitchell recently returned
from the east, where the matter was
finally settled. Some time ago an ex-
pert representing the Lewisohns was
in Pheuix. making in~cstigations, and
his report back to the company was
very favorable. The requirement of
the property and the change of the
COln bdllN ndlllO anu lAS llldhOlhS Has
been the work of several weeks.
The present mill on the property
will be used for only sampling of the
ore, and when the proper state of de-
velopment has been reached a ne v
plant will be installed. The Kelvin
Calumet has some fine showings and is
district. Native copper has been found
in some of the workings, which extend
over several hundred feet.
Twitchell has been foremost in its
development and his little mill proved
the camp and aroused interest in the
Kelvin country as mining region

There is much rich ore in sight, the
old miners having followed the richer
portions of the ledge.
Aside from the valuable find of pot
terry, it is evident that a large mine
existed here in the days before Cortez,
and, realizing this, the owner, Mr..
CastellanOs, who had never known
that the property existed on his estate,
has already sent for a mining engineer
from Mexico City, and is making prep
arations to have assays made of the

Depths of Shafts in Butte Mines.

Mysterious Underground Habitation.

Salina Cruz, Mex, March 7.-One of
the most extraordinary discoveries that
has been made in Mexico during re-
cent years occurred when Manuel San
tiago, who was rounding up his cattle
some 10 miles east from the Rio Verde
on the Tehauntepec National railway,
came upon a large cave, and, being
curious, entered, but not being pro-
vided with lights, after a hurried look
around, left and notified his brother,
and the following day the two men,
equipped with ropes and candles, made
an examination of the cave.
This led into a mining tunnel, and
200 feet from the portal Santiago and
his brother found themselves going
through several rooms, which were
fully furnished with articles of the
prehistoric days. In all they counted
ii rooms. They also discovered four
bodies, and many others may exist.
These are described as being in
mummifed state. The men are very
large and do not in the least resemble
any of the Indian types found in Mex
leo at the present day.
The benches in the rooms were beau
tifully carved and some are painted.
On the walls hung the heads of Indian
chiefs and tigers in stone. An i'm
mense quantity of plates, dishes, vases
and ornaments were found, the most
interesting seen in Salina Cruz being
a dish set on a tripod, and few frag-
ments of a painted dish which had

ions of acres of public forests, is COM
ing to Denver on March 18th to meet
the members of the Colorado legisla-
ture, and to confer with the Forestry
Committee of the American Mining
Congress in relation to the grivances
of mining men against the forest pol
icy. 1t was at the suggestion of Mr..
Pinchot early in last October that the
Mining Congress appointed q commit
tee to make investigations concerning
the effect of the forest policy upon the
rights of mining men, and the COM
mittee has meanwhile gathered much
data relative to prospecting on public
lands and patents to claims within the
forest reserves, the use of timber,
water rights, etc. Numerous specific
complaints have come into the hands
of the committee, which will be care
fully considered.
Mr. Pinchot feels, as do the officers
of the Mining Congress. that a full re-
view of the differences would place
most of them in the way of satisfactory
but the Mining Congress
is determined to fight for the removal
of all restrictions which hinder the
development of mining.

Though the Utah man wears dozen
yokes
And Nevada stacks her chips,
They belong to the forty six grown up
folks
And nobody minds their slips:
But young Arizony must do right
And her people must be good.
So she'll walk in robes of shinin' white
When she jines the sisterhood.
So it'll long farewell to the Old Nick 5
spell,
To the gun and the doubled fist,
And the men can't score on the wheel
no more
And the ladies can't play whist.
Quit your shootin' scraps and you
can't shoot craps
Nor indulge any reckless traits
For a wisdom tooth ends our careless
youth
And we're goin' to jine the states.
At the roundup camp, when stars
peep out
And.the coyote tunes his harp.
You will find nice cowboys grouped
about,
Playin' marbles on tarp.
And with lemonades their souls they
steep
Till the camp fire light grows dim,
While the cook reads ''Pilgrim's Pro

And the range boss huns hymn.
Oh, it's adios to our langwidge gross
And the ways of Grizzly Pete:
All our wild oats crop must be sody
pop
And the cubeb cigarreet.
1t is sure a crime. in our sun-kissed
cline,
For the boys to get on skates
And the longhorn kin must shed their
sin
If we're goin' to jine the States.

Where the air was once so blue,
They have changed their ways and as
sumed the frills

And the fireman sweats but he plans
to flee
From the blisterin' fires to come
And the miner just says "Oh, dear

If the hard steel whacks his thumb.

friends, Hi,
Lo, Jack and the family tree.
And the miner packs just bunch of
tracts
Where his Climax used to be.

But our wise men legislates
That we've got to be from our sin
set free
If we're goin' to jine the States.
When our Arizony sashays forth,
Dainty white as her yucca bloom,
And the fat old States to the east and
north
Will remark, as they make her room
at is plain to see by your sweet face,
dear
That you're strange to the ways Of
sin:
Plumb stainless is a rare thing here
And we need you bad. Come in
So it's long farewell to merry--well,
Blue smoke and the red, red paint.
And the first fresh lad that hints we're
bad
Will be licked till he swears we aint.

For the Old Boys temptin' bats:
Well be calm and cold and let on

For we're goin' to iine the States.
