PIONEER INDIAN FIGHTER
 GETS LAST CALL

Major Charles H. Veil, who gained renown as an Indian fighter in the early days of Arizona, and was in business in East Phoenix in1s71, died on New Years day at Blackwell, Pa. The cause of his death was congestion of the lungs.
 Charles H. Veil, brevt mapor of the United States army, was born February 14, 1s42, at Scalp Level, near Johnstown, Cambria county, Pennsylvania, the son of Henry and Mercy Veil. His father was a brother of Judge Veil, and both had settled in Liberty, Tioga county, where they lived until the major s father moved to Scalp Level, and built a tannery, which he managed until his death. Young Charles was scarcely 19 years of age when he enlisted in the Ninth Regiment, Penn sylvania Reserves, and served as a soldier until July, 1863. He was en. gagged with the Pennsylvania Reserves in the Seven Days battle before

ID RESUME WORK ON STERLING
 PROPERTY
CFrou Saturdays Daily,


 The old Sterling mine is to be again the scene of activity, and work will be started on it immediately, is the report that M. s. Taft author ized yesterday, after several days of an examination of the old workings
 With F. B. Roberts, who is iden- tifed with the enterprise, an exam ination of the property was made at all points, and while some time will elapse before the old shafts and drifts will be cleaned out, in the meantime surface improvements will be made and mine supplies taken in, together with several miners, who will be put to work.
 The extraction of ore will begin immediately, as there are several hun dred tons in sight, left from the past operations, that would not stand the expense of shipping outside of the territory. These ore bodies, MT. Taft says, will pay handsome profits by being treated at the Humboldt smelt- CT, but ten miles distant, and he an tieipates success through this avenue, accordingly. Probably there is no one more eonversant with the Sterling ground than MT. Taft. He was with it when the original work was start ed, and left it at a time when it's ores would not stand the heavy trans portation and shelter treatment charges of outside places. The re- opening of the smelter he says, is the reason why work is to be re- sumed on the Sterling, as otherwise it would be impraetieable to attempt to reduce the product.
 Messrs. Taft and Roberts, after their examination of the mining ground, passed an entire day at Hum boldt, personally inspecting the pro gress of work on that enterprise. Mir Bennetts conducted them personally to all points of the gigantic plant, showing the improvements made and contemplated.
 They were fsvorably impressed with the undertaking and believe that it will be one of the most complete smelting plants in the Southwest, the work showing that MT. Bennetts IS conversant with his duties, and in addition to his capability in meehan- ical lines, possesses thorough knOwl- edge of the mineralogieal conditions existing in this field.
 The resumption of work on the Sterling is another straw indicating the trend of the day, in old mines coming to the front, under conditions that cheaper reduction facilities per nit, such as the Humboldt plant will give when it blows in in March. The hills of Yavapai are dotted with low grade propositions that will again come to the front under improved methods of treating their product.

PRESCOTT FIRE BELL WILL BE
 PLACED TODAY
From saturday,s Daily,

Prescott's s new fire alarm bell was brought from the depot yesterday, and lodged underneath the tower, ready for being placed in position today on the summit of that struc. ture, by Ben MOwdy, who has the contract. It is pronounced one of the finest pieces of metal ever manu- factured, and was moulded especially for this city.
 On one side of the oen are raised letters made in the casting, showing the following inscription: "Semper Peratus," which, interpreted, signifies <fAlways Ready"
 Directly underneath the following is shown:
 Mayor, NJ. Goldwater. Councilmen, Belcher, Head, Hughes,
 Wilson.
 Chief, A. A. Johns.
 Assistant Chief, J. H. Robinson. On the opposite side is the name or the hrm, Meneely Bell O., Troy, N. Y, who manufactured it.
 The bell weighs 1,5OO pounds, and in clear weather has a range of sew eral miles. The tower was completed yesterday, and is sixty feet high.
 It is expected that the greater DOT tion of today will be taken up in placing the bell in position. After this is done the heavy electrical ap- paratus that will operate it will be put in position in a station a few feet underneath.
 4. F. Brown of the Gamewell com pany, is expected daily, when the wires, boxes and poles will be placed at the designated points. It is ex- pected that the alarm service will be ready before March 1st.

Richmond, Va, Second Bull Run South Mountain, Antietam, Fredricks burg, Chancellorville and Gettysburg At Gettysburg he was on duty a: mounted orderly with Major General John F. Reynolds, and was the only person present when the general was killed. The major succeeded in pre- venting his body from falling into the hands of the enemy. Soon after he was called to army headquarters when General Meade handed him 8 beautiful gold watch, on which was the following inscriptions. "Present ed to Orderly c. H. Veil by the sis. ters of the late General John F. Reynolds, U. s. A., Gettysburg, July l, 1s63."
 The generals family, out of grati' tude, interceded in Major Veil's be, half with President Lincoln, who or, dered that he be made an officer of the army. He was soon appointed second lieutenant of the First United States cavalry and joined his regi. ment near Culpepper Court House, Virginia, April z, 1864. During the battle of the Wilderness he was un. der General Sheridan's command and was engaged in the battle of Todd E Tavern, the first cavalry battle in which he was engaged as a cavalry officer. He was with General Sheri. dan on his raid to Richmond and the James river, and was engaged in the battles of Yellow Tavern and the crossing of the Chickahominy at Meadow Bridge. He was also with General Sheridan at the battle of Cold Harbor, Hawes Shop and Ire. william Station, and was with him in his Shenandoah Valley campaign, and engaged in all his battles in the valley-notably Winchester, Fishers Hill, Cedar Creek and Woodstock Races.
 Major Veil was with Sheridan on his march to join General Grant in front of Petersburg, in the spring O, 1865, and with Sheridan at the bat ties of Five Forks, Sailors Creek and finally at Appomattox Court House, where Lee surrendered. He was breveted captain for conspicuous gallantry at the battle of Five Forks, and later on, major, for gallant and meritorious service during the war.
 The war in the south being over, he was relieved from duty with his company, being assigned to duty at New Orleans, La. In obedience to the order, the major reported to the commanding officer of his regiment, in New Orleans, and again came un- der the command of General Sheri- dan, who had in the meantime been assigned to the command of the De- partment of the Gulf. Major Veil was assigned to staff duty with Gen. eral James W. Forsythe, commanding brigade at Alexandria, Va, to op- crate against the rebel General Kirby Smith in Texas. He marched to Hampstead, Tex, with the command, and was here assigned to duty on the staff of Major General George A. Custer, commanding a division of cav airy, as inspector general of the d. vision. He marched to Austin, Tex, with his command, and was there re- lieved from duty herewith, and or dered to rejoin his regiment in San Francisco, Cal.

The Miracles

The Miracles
Across the painted desert.
Toward the burning skies,
From the plains of phantom verdure
Their purple peaks arise.
The mist among their submits
A scarf of silver trails,
From cliff to cliff the waters
Fling down their foanly wells
From Arizona's furnace
OF arid sands and stones,
And dusty catcus gardens
Strewd thick with bleaching bones,
The traveller to sunrise
Beholds their ramparts gay,
And seeks their cooling shadows
To see them fade away.
Ghost mountains of the nlessas,
No living foot can climb,
Their CANYONS bright with blossoms,
Or lodges dark with thyme;
For there the desert victims
$50 say the Navajos).
Who die of thirst and hunger,
Alone may find repose.
