BOYS TAKE A BACK SEAT
Spelling Contests Held in New Orleans
Prove Girls Superior to Their
Brothers.

The result of the spelling contests
in the New Orleans public schools
again demonstrates the superior pro-
ficiency of the girls, practically all OF
the vietors being members of the
gentler sex. Last year the same thing
was true and the matter was quite
generally commented on In the press
and at gatherings where educational
subjects were discussed
So far as our information goes there
have been no contests to determine
the pupils in other branches of study.
but it would be interesting to know
tf this feminine superiority is found
to exist in all studies, or If they are
confined only to particular branches.
Doubtless this result is due In part to
the fact that the female mind ripens
at an earlier age than Is the case with
the masculine mind, although there is
little doubt that the feminine intel
lect along certain lines Is more acute
than the masculine. which would seen
to justify the conclusion that certain
branches of study are more readily
mastered by girls and women.
In view of the growing number of
youh6 HoLnen lnde are BOlHB INTO pO-
sitions as stenographers. typewritists
and other positions requiring an ac-
curate knowledge of spelling, this dem
onstrated proficiency Is most crafty
Ing. The public school administra-
tion is to be commended upon the ef-
forts 1t has made to improve the
spelling of the public school pupils
and the triumphant girls to be con
graduated upon their easy victory
over the boys.

NATIVE COPPER IS
 STRUCK IN MASCOT

TUCSON, Ariz., Aug. At is re- ported that native copper has been struck in the air shaft being sunk by the Mascot Copper company in its property in the Chiricahua Noun tains, near Dos Cabezas, eighteen miles south of Wilcox, Ariz., on the Southern Pacific railway This prop erty is traversed by an enormous copper bearing lode, known as the Cooper vein, which on the surface is about 200 feet wide.

IMPORTANT MINING
 DEAL CoNSUMMATED
From Thursdays Daily)

Negotiations were concluded in this city yesterday by which the Skull Valley Mining and Milling company become the owners of the Roosevelt, Hearst and Bryan group of mining claims, situated near Skull Valley, purchasing from T. NJ. San ders. The sale carries with it abso- lute title and the payment of the full purchase price is one of the good features of the deal.
 The company formerly operated the group, and was represented in the sale made yesterday by s. J. McAfee as president, and c. s. Will jams, secretary, both of Colorado.
 Several months ago this company performed considerable work pros peeting, to make definite determina- tions of the ground, running a cross cut tunnel that penetrated the three properties to great depth. The show ing was satisfactory and exceeded expectations in the size and value of the ore bodies. The mineral of these mines is copper and as cut in- to at depth of $50 feet, exposed a body of sehist that carries values twelve feet across.
 The purpose of the company is to re-establish their camp and to be- gin an extenive system of explora- ton through the crosscut and to drift both ways on the three veins, all of which are admirably situated for development from one central point.

MINERS ALLOWED TO
 PAY THEIR OWN BILLS

BISBEE, Ariz., Aug. 2.-Announce- ment has been made by John c. Greenway, the newly elected gen eral manager of the Calumet and Arizona Mining company, that on and after September l, the agree ment existing between that company and the Copper Queen store, where by the store accounts of employees of the mining company were deduct ed from the monthly pay checks, will expire. This arrangement has existed ever since the c. and A. company began operations and the news of the abrogation has come as a great surprise.
 In making the announcement Cap tain Greenway stated that he and his company believed that the free dom in trading allowed under the new arrangement would make for better feeling among employees, and would give the local merchants en- gagged in independent business a bet ter chance to build up their busi- ness.
 The change has been hailed with tremendous satisfaction by the em- ployes of the c. and A., and the in dependent merchants in business.

 Frank Spence will be taken to the penitentiary this afternoon by Sheriff Smith, to begin the serving of a life sentence, under the executive order of a communication of his sentence for the murder of Edgar Sullivan, of which the doomed man was found guilty in the District Court. The official order to this effect will ar rive in Prescott this morning, and Sheriff Smith will personally take the man to Florence.
 Spence has been aware for sev- eral days of the communication of his sentence, and in a statement made yesterday imparted the startling in- formation that he would rather die on the seaffold than pass the remain der of his life in the Territorial pen itentiary. His indifference to the fate of being hanged, his disinter- ested demeanor all through the try ing days after he was sentenced to death, and his apparent disregard of the awful fate that awaited him, were reflected in the expressions of the utmost hatred that he had es- capped the moose. In short, he was morose, and since being informed of his escape from death, he has main tained a stolid and wanton disregard of the crime he was adjudged guilty of committing. Spence is puzzling those who are looking after him in the death watch. He has stated that he will go to the penitentiary an in- noeent man of the crime he was con- victed of, and in the future he does not desire anyone to raise a finger in his behalf, maintaining that in

USES KNIFE ON DOG
 AND IS ARRESTED
From Thursdays Daily

(trOm ThurSdayS Dally)
 Great indignation prevailed yester- day afternoon on the Plaza over what is considered the cOwardly and uncalled for manner in which Joe Bowers brutally and unmereifully attempted to kill a dog that was engaged in a fight with his canine. Eye-witnesses of the affair state that while the dog were fighting and gnawing each other Bowers pull ed a knife out of his pocket and stabbed the dog, inflicting wounds from which the blood flowed freely.
 After the dog was lacerated it fell and laid several minutes on the ground, in a helpless condition, from the great loss of blood Later its owner, a coIored man, appeared, and carried the wounded animal away.
 Bowers was immediately arrested and taken te the county jail. What specific charge will be lodged against him is not known. The affair is re- ported as one of the most disgrace ful that mas ever taken place in the city, in the way of cruelty to animals.

the killing of Sullivan he was jus tifed and that his trial was not a fair and impartial one. He also says that he would rather have been hanged in Prescott than to be sent "down there," as he tersely men tions the Florence penitentiary, back ing up this assertion with the belief that he has but two years at the most to live.
 Physically, Spence is in a demor- alized and shattered condition. His once vigorous frame mas withered, and today he is more of an abjeet type of deeadenee than a mortal of other days. His appetite is gone, and with his emaeiated body, he has aged perceptibly in the past twenty months. His face is furrowed with the marks of the heavy men tai strain with which he has been burdened since his incarceration, and it is believed that his days are nun bered on this earth.
 Spence also says that all through his life, since he reached manhood, he has been in a constant channel of turmoil and trouble, and he is desir- ous of the end coming as soon as fate wills it.
 The death watch placed over him since last June will be maintained until he leaves the cell where he has been confined since the sentence was imposed. He is nearing sixty years of age, and for over thirty years has been a resident of this county, spending the greater portion of that time on the ranch where he committed the crime and for which he goes to the penitentiary for the remainder of his life.

HA|LSTORM HITS JACKRABB|T
 MINE Camp Buildings Are All Wrecked by Fierce
 TWiSter Many Narrow Escapes From Death Are
 Reported
From Saturdays Daiiy)


 That a cyclone of great intensity, followed by the heaviest nailstorm known in years, swept the mining camp at the Jack Rabbit mine, near Casa Grande. yesterday morning, causing great damage and destroy ing all the buildings, is the burden of a message received from E. M. Zimmerman, manager at Casa Grande. Zimmerman formerly resided in this city.
 "There were half dozen narrow escapes from death," the message stated, "but no one was injured.
 "The cyclone, though extremely local, was typical in character. The storm met and bursted directly in the camp, creating a 'twister.' The cyclone ragged for about twenty min- utes, and in that time all the build ings were destroyed, leaving masses of wreekage.
 "When the violence of the wind abated heavy hailstorm commenced. Six inches of hail fell, many of the stones larger than half the size of a mans fist"
 It is presumed that the surface employees of the mine escaped by go- ing underground.
