PROMISING PROPERTY.
tFrom Fridays Daily)

 George H. Freyda, who is develop ing the War Eagle mine, near Good win, on Turkey Creek, is in the city to make purchases of mechanical supplies for his property. He gives an excellent report of the progress of work, and will continue the exten- sive operation of the ground. The War Eagle is one of the prominent silver producers in that field, and in the past was a heavy shipper of that metal An interesting fact linked to the property is that it is believed to be a continuation of the belt on which the Juanita interests are To- cated, this feature being traced eas- fly in an unbroken chain of the fis- sure. but the absence of the copper and gold values is the problem that cannot be solved. Otherwise the min eralogical conditions indicate that is of the same family.

HAMMOND IS ASKED
 FOR DETAILED DATA
fk1rpn s.krpsInuI uol,t,

Spurred on by the wide publicity given to statements made recently in Brooklyn, N. T., by John Hays Hammond, the celebrated mining en- gineer, to the effect that the days of mine "salting" have not passed and that he encountered an aston ishing sample of "salting" in Yava- pal county, following a visit sev- eral months ago, District Attorney H. D. Ross yesterday sent a lengthy communication to MT. Hammond, ask ing him if his statements, widely pub lished throughout the press of the country, were correctly reported, and further requesting that detailed data be furnished, regarding the alleged "salting."
 Under the territorial statutes, mine "salting'' is felony, which is pun ishable by imprisonment of from one to ten year9 in the penitentiary and by fine of rom $500 to s1,o0O.
 In the event that definite infor- nation is received, which shows that an attempt was made, as alleged, to deceive prospective purchasers of a property in Yavapai county, it is un- derstood that a vigorous investigation will be instituted to determine who the guilty parties are.
 It was learned also that, if the allegations should prove to be true, vigorous prosecution of the guilty parties will be begun.
 It is realized by mining men that statements made by so prominent an engineer as MT. Hammond that Yav- apai county has "salted" mines, might easily work considerable dam age to the mining interests of this county, and for this reason the of feials have determined to sift the matter to the bottom.
 It is regarded as a certainty, fur thermore, that the business IntFests of this city and this county will also look carefully into the allegations and take steps that will show Yav- apai county as a district where mine 'salting" is not tolerated and where prosecutions of mine "salters," if there are any in this county, will be pushed in a most determined man ner.

enterprise enters an era that ;s sig nifcant of the merited rating it en- joys as a mining proposition of the best possibilities. The introduction of reduction machinery at that particular point is the first move made in that field to treat the product of a mine. and from the fact of the nearby To- cation of Rich Hill, where so many thousands of dollars were taken in placer dust, the future development of the ground and at great depth, as is contemplated, the solution of an interesting geological proposition is eagerly awaited.
 MT. Genung is enthusiastic over the recent decision of his company to en- large their sphere of operations, and being eonversant with that section, believes the forthcoming development will prove the wisdom of the big out lay of capital that will be placed on the enterprise. He was accompanied to the camp by MT. Genung.

During his recent trip to Humboldt, Dan B. Genung, the general manager of the Mildred Mining company, or Staton, negotiated for the purchase of the ten-stamp mill Of the Standard Reduction company at that point, to- gether with the various utilities at tached to the plant.
 The dismantling of the property will begin immediately and it will be shipped to the Mildred ground. MT. Genung left for his camp yesterday morning, to begin grading for the new mechanical equipment, and will also start up operations in mine work on new order.
 Extensive work is planned for the enterprise, and altogether the com pany is preparing to develop on larger scale than ever before.

FOOD FOR
 STUDENTS OF SLUFF


 Down in the prosperous town of Swansea, where the quiet game or "sluff" is one of the chief reerea- tionns, when the residents are not busy taking ore out of the mines there, a new author has appeared, who has compiled some brief, pointed and deeidely amusing instructions for devotees of the game.
 The author is Col. Ed. F. Brown, father of H. L. Brown, general man. ager of the Clara Consolidated. The document was presented to Dr. Chas. E. Pearson, the company surgeon.
 The little volume is entitled ''Ex- tracts from Browne, on Stuff, writ ten expressly for the benefit of new players"
 The extracts are as follows:
 l. Always deal yourself a good hand;-do it honestly, if you can, but do it.
 ?. Don't "Frog" if you haven't got it.
 8. Look out for "mitts" handed you; slide then in the discard. It will ease your mind, and save your poeketbook.
 4. Don't forget that an ace will take a ten-spot.
 5. If you find that you cannot re- member that a jack is high afteI the ace, king and queen have been played, go hOme-COu're probably drunk.
 6. Solo when you have it; and forty two for safe, count in your hand, is worth the money.
 :. They say a frog cannot be made without an ace or six trumps, but it is a d-d ie-it can be done.
 8. The preceding rule must be con sidered when you play with men, who you figure will always lose ten y bad play Qike those Swansea men).
 9. In solo, when you have a sec ond control, "sluff" a ten spot to your partner; they count too much to lose.
 .-1O. In conjunction with this rule, always give a man credit for ''hav- ing something," if he solos.
 II. It will be noticed that the ?, 3, and spots are removed from the pack. This was done because women and some men players tried to solo with eight spot high.
 12. Don't forget that there are but three cards in the "kitty" and the average count would be only eight. The reason it is called the kitty" is because it has the fem mine trait of uncertainty.
 13. "Kities' can save the drinks, but don't play them for money.
 II. In leading, always use your best judgment, and lead from your long or strong suit, or a sneak.
 15. A sneak in trumps is a goou lead-if not the ten spot, and if you nave no trumps at all, don't lead them
 16. Don't Intentionally deceive | your partner. He will accuse you of it, anyway.

MOVEMENT MADE ID PATENT
 MINES
(From Saturdays Daily)

Realizing that since the Blue Bell
 mine is firmly established as one of
 the bog copper propositions of the fu- ture, the preliminary move towats patenting the May and Mountain mines of the May Mining company,
 that adjoin the above, was com menced in the city yesterday by H. c. and M L. Heffelman, through their attorney, LeRoy Anderson.
 This move is made at this partic- ular time in view of the intention 10 begin the extensive development of the two mines, the prominence if which are now generally admitted through what has been accomplished in the Blue Bell in deep mining.
 In past years the May people en- tered the field with the surface con ditions favorable, and eoincident with their developmenth Blue Bell was under headway also. Both prop ositions were later shut down, and until the Consolidated Arizona Smelt- ing company, some ten months ago, resumed operations the belt did not reach the prominence it now enjoys, and it was deemed expedient to tenn porarily suspend the May until de- were accomplished on the belt at another point, and nutil con ditions were more favorable in the copper market price to extract tho ores.
 The May ground is located as the first north extension of the Blue Bell, and from the main working shaft of the former to the main works of the latter it is but 4,5OO feet dis tant. In geological makeup the Blue Bell and the May are identical, and from the present depth of the May, of 265 feet, to a similar depth on the Blue Bell, the grade of the product IS as of the same mineral family.
 The first indication of a change in the Blue Bell ores was reached on the 400 foot level. and when the 800 | foot level was tapped a few weeks ago, the immense body of high grade | ore developed was a startling reve latiOn to the mining world of this On the basis of this rela- of the two interests The purpose of the May company is to exploit their ground, and in which they feel encouraged to expend q heavy sum.
 in past working methods on Jheir | they prospected the ground at many points, showing in the aggre- gate aside from the main working | shaft of 265 feet, an additional s65 | feet scattered along the system. The | successful exploitation of the Blue | Beill, and its unquestioned rating, is | the avenue that brings the nearby | May mines into prominence, an dln | harmony with the belief that the min aralogical conditions are identical. the | packers of the latter say the ore is there like it is in the Blue Bell, and | all there is to do is go down and | get it.

ASTHMA CAUSED PIONEER ID
 END LIFE
From Saturdays Daily)


 NJ. c. Fitzmauriee, mention of whose tragic death was made briefly yesterday in the Journal-Miner, took his own life through long illness, oe- casioned by an asthmatic affliction. For the past two months he has been confined to his room, and the greater portion of that time was spent in bed. He was also burdened with stomach troubles, and at times suf- fered intensely, and particularly so a few days before the end came.
 He was very Respondent at times, and when so afflicted it is believed his reason gave way to desperate methods to end the agony, saying re- peatedly to members of his family that he was worn out and realized the futility of eOnquering his ail- ment. In anticipation of his becoming desperate, every preeautiOn was taken by his wife to thwart his aim at self destruction. Unfortunately, however, rifle that was standing beside the door was overlooked in removing weapons from his room, and with this he destroyed himself.
 His method was deliberate, and to successfully carry out the ghastly work, he attached a piece of tape to the trigger, and making a loop around the band, pulled the cord with his hand, it is believed. The bullet entered his left side just above the heart, and death was instantaneous.
 The passing of this man is one that will be generally regretted by the many who were acquainted with him. He was known in business circles as an upright man and of unquestioned principles in his relations with every element in the business world of this city. He arrived in the city about eight years ago, coming to this sec tion in the hope of relief from his ailment. Previous to that time he had travelled extensively over the west, going to Alaska in 1898, and to all mining settlements on the Pa cife slope before that time At one time MT. Fitzmaurice was one of the heaviest growers of hops in the state of Washington, and amassed a for tune. In 1889 his physical affliction became evident, and this took him to every field, and especially so where mining settlements were prevailing, in the hope of relief from his ail- ment.
 He was born in Ireland, sixty-seven years ago, and came to the United States when only fourteen years of age, landing at San Francisco. He leaves many relatives to mourn his loss, in addition to scores of friends ] along the Pacific coast, who will | learn of his death with sorrow. From his first marriage, two sons and two daughters survive. They are G. s. | a resident of this city, | and c. G. Fitzmauriee, residing in | Seattle, Wash.

And all this is legitimate business,

SOME FACTS ABOUT HYPNoTIsM

No competent exponent Of hyp-
notism to-day believes that a person
is inevitably obliged to execute all
hypnotic commands given him, says
II. Arlington Bruce in the Woman's
Home Companion for March. And
while some still cling to the idea
that hypnotic crimes are possible,
the consensus of scientific opinion is
that no person who would not in his
normal state perpetrate the crime
suggested, would perpetrate it if
hypnotized.
II is equally certain, though,
that under hypnotic influence
people are liable to accuse them
selves Of crimes they have not com
mitted. This is real danger,
which ought to be carefully guard
ed against in courts of justice.
There is reason to believe that
many police confessions extorted
rom accused persons by the pro-
,ess Of the so-called third degree

ire made in hypnotic state. The
persistent questioning of the prison
II by the police, their pitiless insis-
ence that he is guilty and knows
lie is guilty may develop in him

AN UNFRAMED INCREMENT

The reason Henry George most re-
lied upon for urging that all reve-
nues should be raised by tax on
land. was that il would do away
with the unearned increment which
made so many men rich, with no ex-
ertion on their part. When he first
started on his mission. or crusade,
or whatever else il might be called,
in San Francisco, he had catching
argument right at hand. The young
and enterprising men who came to
California during the first ten years
after 40, pulled out for the rivers
and hills, where placer gold could
be found. They had TO be supplied
with everything, so from the first
the merchants of San Francisco did
well. There was another class that
lived by loaning money. generally
short loans, from steamer day TO
steamer day, at thleying interest
generally. Sometimes this class,
when they could get nothing else
from a debtor would take a lot out
on the sand-hills. The city kept
growing. There was a steady in
crease by immigration. and then as
men made little fortunes in the hills,
they went down and established
themselves in the big city. When
the Comstock and other silver mines
were discovered in Nevada and
other territories then there was a
rush and transformation in San
Francisco Then these men who
had the lots in the sand-hills sud
denly found themselves rich. and
when sorn-out miners came TO them
they told them that had they been
prudent and settled in San Fran.
