at a loss to find reason, but one
day he visited the COWS in the mead
ow and found one Of the animals ly-
ing down quite contentedly, while two
large grass snakes were sucking at
the udders. The reptiles had evident
" found milk a thriving diet, for
each was feet inches in length,
and over inches round the thickest
part of the body.

Arizona for joint use Of the shannon
Detroit and Arizona Copper companies
Officials Of the three corporations have

thoroughly pTospected, the different
workings being only a few feet in
depth. Yet. with the small amount OF
work done. the Lodges are showing ur
satisfactorily and a few parties are
ready TO ship ore. The next few weeks
will determine the future Of the camp
for by that time shafts Of sufficient
depth will have been sunk and the
