The discovery was made by John Guilfoyle, a well known pioneer min ing prospeetor of Noeozari. When out west of Nacozari about ten miles he came across a piece of detached ore, which he picked up and exam ined. He spent many days looking over the neighboring lodges in the hope of coming across the mother lode.
 But his search was in vain. Mean time, he brought in the specimen Of ore, and was surprised to find that it ran 1870 ounces of silver to the ton, with good values in gold. This as- say ran so high that he returned to the district and continued his search While using a steel in a creek bot tom, he found rock almost at the sur face, but continuing his soundings, he suddenly struck a spot where the steel sank several feet.
 Guilfoyle knew that the rock for nation could not have ended so sud denly, and he began to exeavate. He uncovered a long cut in the solid roekof the creek bed, which led down stream, and which could not have been cut there when the water was flowing in the present creek bed As he progressed, he found old stone implements, including stone hammers, hatehets, and finally he came across a great ancient mateta, or stone bowl, in which the ancient workers pulver- ized the native ores before smelting in the crude 'dobe furnaces.
 Guilfoyle immediately denounced the ledge on which he had made his find, and called the group of claims ''Aguaje," and extensions of the claim have just been denounced by Frank Watts, probably the best known mining man in Sonora. The latter has promised the Douglas Chamber of Commerce and Mines to strive to get the collection of ancient tools, and to send them to that institution, where they will be added to the ex- hibit already well represented with specimens from the rich districts in Sonora, including the Nacozari, Moe tezuma, Fl Tigre, La Caridad, Sahua- ripe, Cananea, Arizpe and others.
 Guilfoyle has already leased the Aguaje mine, and inside of the next few months the old workings will be opened up, when it is probable that other discoveries will be made to throw more light upon the methods adopted by the ancient workers.

LOST MINES IN
 SONORA MAY BE FOUND

For years and years the prospect ors in Sonora, Mexico, have been searching for the second of what has been recorded in history as the "twin lost mines.'' In certain old records of the early missions men, tion is made of two certain lost mines. The names under which they are recorded, likes the names of most of the missions established under the Spanish crown, do not core spond with any known landmarks today, and hence only relative lOea- ton can be used as a bisis for ex- ploration.
 When the San Pedro mine, located south of Naeozari, was discovered, some years ago, with its old under ground workings, it was firmly be- lieved that one of the two lost mines had been discovered Now it seems probable that the second also has been located, and in the belt indi- cated by the ancient documents. Even if the second of the famous lost mines has not been discovered, an antigua mine of great age has been found, with enough proofs to indicate that it has not been worked for many years.

PIONEER MINER DEAD.
CFrom Fridays Daily.)

The many friends and aequaintanees of George Holmes, a miner, will re- gret to learn that he passed away, Wednesday afternoon, at the Sisters hospital. He was taken to that in stitution but twenty-four hours before, suffering from miners consumption, with which he had been afflicted for many years. He was also a constant sufferer from asthma, and it is said this disease hastened the end. A few days, before the end came, he began to decline rapidly, and in the hope of prolonging his life he was placed in hospital so that he could be properly cared for. Mir. Holmes was a well known and well liked miner of this county, and for nearly twenty years had resided in this section. He was about 55 years of age, and was noted for his industry and good citizenship. The body has been taken in charge by the Ruffner undertaking house, and will be shipped to Cincinnati, O., for interment He has a brother and mother residing in that city.

 The annual meeting of the stock holders of the Arizona Central Copper company was held in Prescott yester- day. John w. Norton of Kansas City was elected president, c. A. FOreey of Pittsburg, first vice president; J.. B. Cleveland of Prescott, second vice president and general manager; J. NJ. Elder of Prescott, secretary urer; J. s. Carmichael of Prescott, di- rector; George F. Macdonald of Pits burg, director, and J. F. Wilson of Prescott, director.
 The progress of development was satisfactory to the company, and the determinations given were stated to be an indication of the merits of the enterprise. The finances of the company were also reported as ex- cellent, and the adoption of the elee- trical method of mining was endorsed. Through this channel the reaching of great depth is made possible in the shortest time, and through it the company is advancing in its exploita- ton under the most favorable condi- tions.

ogical features are identical and ir is without any question whatever a con tinuation of the mineral system in evidence on the Crowned King, and only lacks the exploitation of the ground to determine it's attractive rating, if, in reality, it does not prove to be a much heavier producer.
 Each location on the Sarstoga vein is continuous, and from where the old union shaft of the two mines Is seen, an unbroken belt is traeeable for nearly TWO miles to the south, making desirable system for the investment of capital.
 On all claims of the company pros peeting has been given with limited depth, and in each instance the grade of the ore and the geological eondi- tions in evidence give it prominence, and which will be exempliAed when development is had.
 The re-establishing of the old camp is one of the pleasant events to chronicle, and particularly so for the reason that in the long years of idle ness that have intervened, the belief of the mining element conversant with that field is that it has been sadly neglected and not given an oppor- tunity to prove its merit as one of the best gold mining propositions in the county.

Another Bradshaw mining proposi- tion has entered the active list, the good news coming from Hon. Robt. E. Morrison, who returned from an east ern trip yesterday, and stated that the Saratoga Gold Mining company had been financed and would resume work in the next thirty days, the intention of the syndicate being to exploit the ground extensively and earnestly.
 The Saratoga people have a good mechanical equipment on the ground from former operating, together with accommodations for many men. Un- der the direction of the late O. F. Place a shaft about 25O feet in depth was sunk, together with the drifting on the vein.
 The showing was attractive and the property was rated as one of the best in that zone. The belt on which the six claims of the system are To- cated, is one of the oldest in that district, and in the original explora- ton was known as the Moody 6 Place properties, when the Assure was traced to the Crowned King mine, the latter was opened and gave to the Bradshaw region it's fame as a min ing center.

Assistant United States Attorney Forest left yesterday for southern Arizona, on duties pertaining to his office. He will probably go to Globe before returning home, where the gov ernment will endeavor to replevin an Indians pony that was sold by a white man without authority. The animal was worth about $5 and the legal cost to restore him to the owner will probably reach ten times that sum. But the Indian must have him back at any cost.

LARGE FORTUNE FOR ARIZONA
 HE|RESS
(From Saturdays Daily

From Saturdays Daily
 In the Probate Court, yesterday, an interesting matter was up for consider ation by Probate Judge Hicks, per taining to the estate of the late Frank Devine, who was killed near the Four-Mile House, few years ago. A little girl figures as the only heir ess of the deceased, and the sum in- volved runs into the thousands of dollars.
 In this estate, the sixth annual re- port of Judge Talbott, the guardian of the girl, was allowed, approved and settled. Judge Talbott was ap- pointed owing to his friendship for the deceased, and his ward is Mar garet Sarah Devine, and is but eight years of age. She resides with her mother at the Four-Mile House. In the settlement made yesterday, on the order of Judge Hicks, the guardian was charged with having received $26,SI425, and credited with having paid out during the past year the sum of $1,7O5.14, as follows: $s4050, the monthly allowance for care and sup port of the child, including board, clothing and miscellaneous accounts; a COW and calf valued at $40; expenses of guardian and care of the estae, sll4.74. A balance in the estate of $25, ,7O911 was shown. Of this sum s5O9.l1 consists of cash deposited with the Commercial Trust company, and promissory notes secured by first mortgages on various pieces of desir- able real estate in the city, covering valuation of $24,6OO. Judge Hicks, after the statement above was submit ted. issued an order that delinquent interest on these notes be collected i'm mediately.
 The accumulation of this large sum of money by the little girl is due to somewhat peculiar circumstances. Her father was one of the heirs named by her grandfather to the interest only on $lO,OO0 of an estate during the life of the heir, and upon the death of Frank Devine, the principal was to go only to his heir, while the wife of Frank Devine was not mentioned or included in the will.
 After the death of Frank Devine the above sum was withdrawn from the state of Pennsylvania, and ap- piled to the only heir in this county, as was specified in the original will of the senior Devine. After eonsid- erable trouble this was secured by Judge Hicks, SO that the wish of the senior Devine could be carried out.
 Other heirs provided for in like manner by the senior Devine, have passed away, and the fund for the Arizona heir has accordingly aeeum- ulated to a considerable amount, as is shown in the above statement of Judge Talbott.
 It is very probable that the little Devine girl will inherit still more money, through the passing away of other members of the family, and when she reaches age will have snug fortune.
 Judge Hicks, in speaking of this interesting matter, says it is his pur- pose to make the estate self-supporting through revenues derived from the in vestment, and he will use every effort within the law to facilitate that end. The Arizona heiress to the estate is residing with her mother, Mrs. Car rie Devine, at the FOur-Mile House.

 Hon. Robt. B. Morrison returned yesterday from an extended visit to Washington and other eastern points. While at the national capital he did excellent work in behalf of statehood.
 Discussing the statehood situation, as well as general matters, with a Journal-Miner reporter, MT. Morrison said:
 "When I left Washington, about week ago, statehood for Arizona was never in more favorable position. In neither house of Congress are there any enemies; on the contrary, all mem bers of Congress appear to be our friends. The President is actively in terested in the passage of an en- abling act at this session. What is known as the Senate bill has the ap- proval of all of the Republican mem bers of the Senate committee on ter ritories, and I think also of the Dem Oerats.
 Essential Differences.
 "There are two essential differ ences between the Hamilton bill and the Senate bill. One relating to the qualification of electors, the Senate bill disapproving of the legislation adopted by our last legislature con- taining what is called the educational clause, and the other on the question of donation of lands for the payment of the territorial and county indebt- edness.
 E'Mark Smith appeared before the committee on territories at his re- quest a week ago last Saturday, and as the record shows, criticised the Senate bill because it did not pro- vide for the educational 'disquali- fcation' test. He stated in answer to questions, that this legislation was entirely non-partisan, and that it would affect but very few persons in the territory of Arizona. He in sisted, however, that these additional qualifications should be part of the en- abling act.
 Weighty Arguments.
 '"Thereupon, on the request of mem bers of the committee, Delegate Cam eron, MT. J. L. Hubbell of Apache county, and myself, appeared before the committed, and what we there stated is contained in the printed re- port of the hearing, which has been circulated in various parts of Ari- zona. For myself, I declared that there were two practical objections to this disqualification clause. One, that it opens the door to frauds in registration and before boards of election, as the law leaves it disere- tionary with the mind of any regist- ering officer to say whether or mot any person who applies for registra- ton can read a section of the Consti- tuition in such a way as to satisfy the registering officer that the applicant is competent to read the section in the English language, and that he does so without having memorized the same, and without being prompted that placing such power in the hands of registering officers is in itself un-

just to the citizens of the territory.
 "The second objection is that on election day a partisan board can dis qualify, without the right of appeal, citizens whose names are on the Great Register, by simply declaring that they are not satisfied that the person presenting himself can read the Constitution or any section of it in the English language.
 Partisanism Shown.
 "Another and more radical eriti eism of this educational feature, l insisted, is that it will result in the actual disfranehisement of hundreds of citizens of our territory, property owners, reputable people, most of them Me1icans, who have resided here for years, and have always pos sessed the right to vote. l also de- elared that the legislation was in- tensely partisan, and that anyone who maintained the contrary did so for the purpose of throwing dust in the eyes of those to whom they were talk ing, and gave the record of the vote in the legislature; in the Coun- eil, ten Democrats, two Republicans; in the House, seventeen Democrats, seven Republicans; that the bill was vetoed by Governor Kibbey, and upon being returned with his objections, was passed over his veto by the same vote just quoted. l further stated that this law was passed for the purpose of disfranchising the Mexican voters in this territory, and that it was the duty of Congress, having the power to supervise legis- lation of the territory, to disapprove of this law, because it would result, without question, in an act of injus- tice''
 "what do you think about the pas sage of the statehood bill at this ses- sion7" was asked.
 "From all I learned, I feel con ident that an enabling act will be passed before the adjournment of this session of Congress, permitting the people of Arizona to begin the es- tablishment of a new state"
 "What about the amendment sug- gested by Senator Smooti"
 "This is a feature of the cam paign which is being given great at tention by our active and worthy Delegate in Congress, Mir. Cameron, and it is confidently believed that the request of the Senator from Utah to cut off from Arizona and give to Utah all of our lands north and west of the Colorado river, will not meet with
 Cameron Is Active.

There were $50 freshmen and 10

the "morgue." No injuries other than
minor scratches and bruises were re-

Not Brilliant.

The championship match between
Whitney and White was not brilliant
affair. In fact 1t was pretty poor golf
at times, with occasional good strokes
interspersed. They may have been a
bit nervous when they started out in
the forenoon, which perhaps was eX-
cusable, but they never reached the
point of playing really fine golf. AS
soon as Whitney had his opponent
down he played for safety all the way
through the latter half of the match.
Austin White seemed to make ia
tai mistake by also playing an over
safe game. BY so doing he apparent
ly played into Whitney's hands. Had
he cut loose and played the free and
dashing kind of game that he put up
in the final match for Del Montes

have had a better cnance than by
