MEASURES ATTITUDES.
The Use Of the Barosraph on Aero
planes and Balloons.

What the compass is to the mariner
the Paragraph Is to the aviator. The
Paragraph is an instrument for meas
uring attitudes. The pressure Of the
air as 1t increases or decreases causes
a delicate needle to trace a wavy line
upon a cylinder which revolves by
clockwork. This line indicates not
only the exact height that Is reached
BY the aviator. but also the speed at
which he Is travelling.
The Paragraph is kept in a weather
proof box with a glass front. which Is
attached 10 a bar Of the aeroplane or
to a rope on the balloon. 1t is official
ly sealed before the aviator embarks.
so there is no possibility Of tampering
with 1t. aud the seal Is taken of in
the presence Of witnesses at the end
Of the flight In this way II is posi-
BILE to establish absolutely and graph
icaIly the altitude which an aviator
attalns In his aeroplane or balloon.
II is necessary for the aviator to
watch the Paragraph constantly. as II
indicates a change In the elevation al
most to the foot The sky rilui has to
keep his eye on the Indicator much as
the man at the wheel Of the seagoing
ship watches his compass. Should the
aeroplane or the balloon rise or fall
ten or twenty feet the aviator would
not be conscious Of it unless he looked
at the wavering needle tracing its
permanent record on chart before
him. This tells him Immediately Of
any changes 10 the nature Of The air
currents and gives him timely warning
Of aerial dangers.
These instruments are so delicate
and so accurate. 4; Is said. that a man

 About fifteen miles southwest of Wenden P. B. Dryser is working a force of men on a big iron ledge that has a good surface showing in copper. The ledge has been erosscut for thirty-fve feet, all showing up well. The Dryser property lies on the south slope of the Big Harqua Halas, and has fourteen claims, GOV ering a distance of one and one fourth miles. All surface indications point to a big copper mine when prop erly developed. Three miles northeast from the Dryser is the Garcia prop erty, where there was recently some very rich free gold ore. According to MT. Collins, there are numerous very promising properties in the Harqua Hala range that will sooner or later make a stir when they are opened up sufficiently to show their value.

BIG CATTLE SALE.

Arthur Heath, the Verde Valley stoekman, while in the city yester- day, negotiated the purchase of all the land and cattle interests owned by the late N. E. Hopkins of the Verde country, acquiring a eonsid- erable number of range animals carrying the seven slash c iron, and a ranch in the Mogollons. The estate of the deceased was repre- sented by M. B. Hazeltine, the ad- ministrator. The consideration was heavy, and the revenue derived will later be given to the widow and eight children who surviee. The estate is still in probate, and a monthly allowance of $1OO was orc- cred some time ago for the mainten- ance of the widow and her children, many of whom are minors.

MINING BRIEFS FROM
 LOWER COUNTRY

Wickenburg, Ariz., March S.-SOme little mining news from the A. & c. country was brought in by c. c. Col lins, of the well known Collins Wells, forty-fve miles west of Wickenburg and eleven miles from Wenden. MT. Collins has been in the Harua Hala region for the past four months, pros pecting in the hills and working his own claims near the Wells.
 The Squaw mining property has four claims developed with a 75 foot shaft and a considerable amount of drifting. They have a six foot vein of rich ore, showing well in free gold. The assays run from $40 to $50 for the whole width of the vein, and as the Squaw is only one mile from the railroad and four miles from the Golden station on the A. & C., it will not be an expensive prop erty to develop.
 MT. Collins also visited the Planet minef where he found twenty-five or more men employed mostly at sur face work at present. They are building a road and in various ways getting things in shape to commence the development of the mine on an extensive scale. At Swansea there are about 150 men at work about the mine and underground.
 Since the completion of the railroad to the camp, there have arrived four ears of coke, and every effort is now being made to get the smelter in

SPRING LAMBS FROM
 THIS SECTION
From Wednesdays Daily)

(from WedneSdays Dally)
 J. A. Pitts, of Ash Fork, has ar ranged for the shipment of four double deck ear loads of lambs from his Salt River valley farms to the Kan sas City markets, March 15, for the Easter trade, making the earliest lamb shipments ever made from the territory, says the Phoenix Gazette.
 Unusual interest is attached to the shipment by sheep owners through out Arizona, as it is the first at tempt ever made to place Arizona lambs on the Kansas City markets be- fore Easter. The raising of early lambs in the Salt River valley is con- sidered by many yet in the expert mental stage. MT. Pitts success means the establishment of a new industry in the valley, as many farm CTS and sheep owners have already announced their intention of engaging in the business in the event that the Pitts shipment commands high price.
 MT. Pitts owns two large farms in the Salt River valley, stocked with high class ewes. He has 5000 lambs lambed during the winter months, for the early market. The lambs were raised and fed on the farms and are in excellent condition. They are pastured and fed on hay raised on the land instead of on the desert ranges. The lambs will be ready for market before lambing is finished on other ranges in the north and are expected to be in good de- mand at handsome prices on the Kan sas City markets.
 The shipment of the first four cars will be made from Glendale

RUSHING THE CANS.

Following the issuance of a man date by the City Council a few days ago, that all residents must hereafter empty their refuse into cans and place the same at convenient points for removal by the garbage hauler, the Arizona Mine Supply company re- ported yesterday that their meehan- ieal force was diligently employed in making these reeeptaeles, and for the present all other manufacturing had been suspended. They are delivering an average of thirty a day, and had orders ahead for over one hundred. They are rushing the work that all may comply with the municipal clean up that is on the books for enforce ment.

SITUATION IS QUIET IN B1sBEE

So far as the Calumet and Arizona is concerned, there has been absolute ly no change during the week, ship ments and development continuing the same as usual, which to the well in formed man means that the property is still in gilt-edged shape, says the Bisbee Review.
 At the Superior and Pittsburg prop critics, the Briggs shaft work is pro- gressing nicely on the 1900 foot sta. tion. This station will be finished and sinking resumed within three weeks.
 At. the Hoatson work has been pushed on the 1,5OO foot level toward the Briggs shaft.
 At the Junction the 1,500 foot level was connected throug to the Hoatson shaft during the week, and the open ing is expected to make exceptionally good ventilation for both mines. The pumps in the Hoatson will be shut down, and all the waters will flow over underground to the Junction This will make the Hoatson shaft cold, and send a cold draught through to the Junction.
 The sulphide ore body on the south side of the Junction shaft is develop ing into a big ore body, and is look ing better every day.
 At the Cole shaft work on the bot tom shows very encouraging signs
 Courtland has been a steady shipper since the first of the month. and the smelter will receive a ear CT two ot ore from there regularly each day.
 There have been no new develop ments at the gigantic mines of the Copper Queen company. All is smootf sailing there.

KNOWS THE TRAILS.

Gus Heyman, the genial commercial traveller, arrived in the city Thurs day to renew business associations with his numerous patrons. He is the dean of the fraternity in his line, and is clipping close to nearly thirty years since he first entered Arizona to do business. Like good, old red wine, he improves with age, and is of the same genial fellowship as in the days gone
