 Authentic reports from the old Tip Top silver mine, in the south eastern part of the county, received in Prescott yesterday, convey the i'm portant news that on the car level, at a point about 1000 feet from the entrance, a body of very rich ere has been encountered.
 To support this discovery, E. G. Wager of this city also received sev- eral samples from the find, which carry values that assayed to over HOO ounces to the ton, showing the old characteristics in mineral when that property was famed in the West. The samples displayed carry brittle silver, chloride and horn sil- yer
 The property is being reopened along the old tunnel, and in clean ing out the works this body was cut into by Frank Wager, who is in charge of the enterprise. In letter he states that the discovery is big and ricn enough to warrant the beginning of operation on a large scale, and he feels very enthusiastic over the conditions determined at that one point, stating also that he will rush the work to get the ground under development at the earliest possible date.
 The yield has been quite heavy from this find, and the purpose is to get a ear load out for shipment to Fl Paso immediately The resump- ton of work on this famous old pro- ducer of pioneer days was inaugur- ated few months ago, mainly by Ed. and Frank Wager, who were mining in that distict over thirty years ago, when the Tip Top mine was one of the greatest silver pro- ducers in the west.
 From their association with the property in that day they were bet ter fortified than any other mining people to form an accurate idea of the actual conditions prevailing when the property was closed down through litigation, and later abandoned. In reopening the property under a cor pOrate creation known as the Tip Top Heath Milling and Mining company, one of the principal objects was to handle and treat the immense ton mage of tungsten ores that were dis

THELYNX CREEK
 ROAD ACCEPTED
(From Saturdays Daily)

After three months of work on the Lynx Creek hill, where a new grade was established on the east and west ends, the contract was completed yes terday and accepted by the Board of Supervisors, after an official ex- animation made on the ground. The total cost of the project will reach to nearly s5,OOO, and is one of the most judieious expenditures ever made by this body. The grade has per cent basis, and will be one of the most useful avenues in the county.
 The first vehicle to go over it was the auto of LeRoy Anderson, who speaks enthusiastically of the splen- did roadway made and the ease with which it is traversed. The entire force employed in the work arrived in the city yesterday, and the fore man, James Seaman, will come in today. He is an expert in work of that character, being recognized as one of the most expert miners in the county. Yesterday several far mers and others passed over the grade and expressed themselves in flattering terms of the new route, and were pleased that the old and tortuous roadway was a thing of the past.

MINING IS LIVELY
 IN MOHAVE COUNTY
(Mohave Aliner.)

kMOnaNe Miner.
 J. \. Cohenour has taken the George well boring outfit to the Bi- Metal mines, where he will sink a large number of wells So far the company has not developed the neces- sary amount of water for the big mill and will make an effort to pro- vide at least 3OO,OOO gallons before beginning the erection of the forty stamp mill. Should this amount of water be unobtainable at the mines it is quite probable that the big plant will be erected in Kingman and number of stamps increased to sixty. Kingman offers one of the best sites for a big milling plant on account of the vast body of water that un- derlies the volcanic flow of this basin, and the cheapness of power generation. The mine is capable of sending out daiIy output of 800 tons of ore of a value that will pay to mill at. this point. But every effort will be made to obtain the water at the mine, where the lowest grade ore can be milled at profit.
 Henry Lovin came in from the Colorado river yesterday, where he has been looking after the gathering of pebbles for the Gold Road and Tom Reed tube mills, for which he has the contract. A larger grade of pebbles than those heretofore used in the mill have been contracted for, as it is claimed that the grinding with large stones is much more rap i'd and perfect than that done by the use of the small pebbles shipped in here from Norway. The mills use a large tonnage of pebbles, although the wear on these stones is quite slow. Along the mesas there are thousands of tons of these pebbles that can be gathered for a fraction of the cost of those shipped in here from Europe.
 
 mines of the Vulture Development company, at Lorena Flat, Thursday last. He reports that work on the shaft on the mines is progressing rapidly and that it is expected 70 SCOT be able to either crosseut the vein or sink to a depth at which the vein will be cut by the shaft. Un- less the vein takes a decided dip the shaft will not enter it above 300 feet and it may not be cut at that point. MT. Meyers, who has been foreman at the property, has been transferred to property of the company in Wyoming. Mir Hamilton has been looking after the work at the mine, but expects a new foreman soon.
 Levi Souther, superintendent of 1 the Porter interests in the Mineral | Park section, came in from that place last Tuesday and is looking | after affairs of the company. He re- ports that everything at the mines is in first class shape and that sink ing on the Keystone will be under way next week. The company pro- poses to sink the main shaft on the mine to considerable depth below the present level and thoroughly ex- ploit the mine.

Della Schools Opercrowded.

Prof. Condit, city superintendent,
gives out information that the Delta
schools are overcrowded and new pupils
constantly seeking admission.
We are confronted again with the
necessity of more school room, as was
the case year ago, when the compile
ton of the new high school building
temporarily relieved the situation.
1t is said that the district can be
further bonded for S25, 900. which would
very materially help out the situation
by supplying double our present capaci-
ty for room. Something certainly must
be done. The population is growing
rapidly and will continue to grow, and
by some means Delta must provide suf-
ficient school room for her growing
population.

Respect Your Furniture,

There is a right and a wrong way to
clean furniture. and the correct meth
cd is undoubtedly the easier, which is
a hopeful message to housekeepers.
The fiat willow abomination known as
q furniture whip should neve be al
lowed to touch stuffed furniture, no
matter how cheap the covering, for the
only result from its use is irreparable
injury.
The dust which Sits through the COW
ering settles in the stuffing, and the
sole action of the whip is to bring
this dust to the surface in ridges, which
all future busting of the outside fails
to remove. Furniture which has been
treated in this way on examination viii
be found to bear dark marks CORE
spending to the stroke of the whip, and
delicate colors, especially in ~broeateile,
lose their freshness and beauty very
soon, not from usage, but from a mis-
taken idea of their care.
All furniture should be protected
from the dust al much as possible
When a room is swept all the lighter
articles should be removed n the
heavier one covered closely. A whisl
broom and soft cloth should be ther
employed to remove the particles II
the coverings, first a good brushing
with the broom, then a thorough wip
ing with the cloth, which may b.
dampened if the fabric will stand it.
The woodwork Is best cleaned with
paint brush. followed by a damp cloth
The dust which Sits through to tn
stuf1ng and springs never shows II
self, and, while some superfine house
housekeepers may object that to leay'
1t undisturbed Is uncleanly and~un
healthy, yet all the whipping IN tn
world would remove but a 1.-THE o

Mania In the DAYS of Old.

Scarcely any wood was considered
more valuable in the days of Old
than maple wood, tables constructed
from a notified variety being particu-
larry favored. Such a table, according
to Evelyn, was Cicero's, costing 10000
sesterces-about fG2. Another was es-
timated at 1875, and yet another, be-
longing to one Of the Ptolemies, is said
to have been sold for its weight IN
gold. There was, III fact, such a craze
for tables Of the rarest maple among
the male sex in Rome and so wildly
e%xtravagant were they In this respect
thai when they approached their wives
for I~avishness inspearls and other val
tables the ladies would remind them
of their costly maple hobby, thus
turning the tables on them" hence
the phrase. Virgil represents Evander,
who was a provincial king, as receiv-
ing Aeneas seated on a maple throne.
Chaucer speaks of the maple rs form
ing a bower for the fair Rosamond.
In Evelyn's time the wood of the
maple was much esteemed for all kinds
of turnery.-Westminster Gazette.

HAS SOULMATE
JOINS FATHER
Mrs. Calvin, Nee Gazzam
Ends Long Feud With
Her Parent.
PARTED 20 YEARS

Philadelphia, Oct. 26-Mrs. Charles
B. Calvin, better known as Anteinette
Elizabeth Gazzam, and her father, for
mer State Senator Joseph NJ Gagzam
of Philadelphia, have been reconciled
after twenty years. In those twenty
years and until four days ago Mr.. Gaz-
Fam had not seen his daughter. He
had seen her last before when she was
eight years old.
Emotion well nigh overwhelmed him
when he took her In his arms in his
home at 205 South Nineteenth street,
Philadelphia, four days ago. After
their embraces the bride presented her
husband to her father. MI. Gazzam
gave the young engineer, upon whom
the heiress Of Cornwall last week con-
ferred her hand and the benefits of
her three millions, a hearty slap on the
back, excIaiming joyfully to his daugh-
ter:
"Why, he's all ~right-every bit a
mani l am very well satisfied"
The reconciliation was the voluntary
act of the bride and a complete sur
prise to her parent. None knew better
than he, Mr.. GaZzam says, the com
surrender which Miss GaZzam
made to parental love. She adored her
mother, who divorced Mr.. Gazzam, and
blindly obeyed the edict spoken in life
and perpetuated by this clause in the
mothers will:
81 most solemnly charge and direct
my executor and the guardian of my
beloved daughter, Antoinette Eliza
beth. that they guard and protect my
daughter from coming at any time or
In any manner under the influence OF
into personal or social contact with
her father, Joseph Nj. Gazzam."
A ear ago when Mr.. Gazzam was
seriously injured in a fire which de-
stroyed the Kenilworth inn at Bflt-
more, N. c., his daughter departed so
far from the mandate of her mother as
to send flowers daily to her father
while he lay for months in a hospital.
Friends at that time sought to bring
about a complete reconciliation, but
Miss Gazzam felt then that she could
not disregard her mothers wish. Last
the father received a message
his daughter and hurried to his
home to welcome her on her arrivaf
from New York. Mrs. Calvin and her
husband reached his home at 4 p. m.
and remained until 1 p. m. the follow
ing day. They will sail within a few
days for a tour abroad.

Republican Candidate Gets
Big Reception In South
IS Jersey Stronghold.
SOME FACTlONAL FEELING

vineland, Oct. 26:-vivian M.
Lewis, candidate for governor, went
from one end of the county to the
other yesterday. 1t is estimated that
he shook hands with 5000 people.
He is "a vote getter," and has turned
the somewhat strong sentiment for
Woodrow Wilson.
At Bridgeton the most unbounded
enthusiasm was created by his visit.
In Millville the town turned out to
see him, and In Vineland the whole
town gave him a welcome. The Re
publican club gave him a dinner.
Then he was given a pennant.
A thousand people crowded into
the Auditorium to hear his speech.
Mayor Sawyer presided, and the
stage was filed with old soldiers
from the soldiers home, Hon. Isaac
T. Nichols, candidate for the senate;
w. Il. Turner, candidate for the as
sembly; Congressman John j. Gardi-
ner and others.
After telling of the achievements
of the republican party, Mr.. Lewis
told what he would do If elected.
He favors the establishment of a
public utility commission and a rate
making clause; favors a corrupt
practice<act; the free distribution of
voting ballots to the people, so any
body who wishes can have them; be-
lieves in forest preservation and a
pure food law.
Mr.. Lewis quoted Lincoln's saying
about plucking a thistle and planting
a rose wherever a rose would grow
to illustrate that the best men should
help their fellow-men.
He stated the republican party had
always been the party of progress.
Under democratic rule, he said,
not "a CEN of railroad money had
ever been given to the schools, while
under republican rule the schools
and the people got all but one-half of
one per cent. Only once. he said,
any state road aid had been given.
The water supply, the milk supply
and pure food were being looked af-
ter by the state, and no word of
wrong-doing had ever been charged
against the republican administra-
stion in these enterprises.
Candidate Lewis said New Jersey
had no direct tax, no bonded debt
and 81, 900, 600 in the treasury.
He was proud that he was born In
such a creditable state, and said, II
elected, he would endeavor with all
his might to give the grand old state
an honest business administration,
