CORNERSTONE FROM OLD
MALE SEMINARY OPENED

Tahlequah, Okla, April 1S.-The
cornerstone of the historic Cherokee
male seminary. which has been buried
more than a score of years. was. OPEN
ed last week by A. S. Wyly, superin-
tendent of Indian schools. A news
paper man and several Others were
present. The old cornerstone was To-
Gated at the northeast corner Of the
building.
The box was found about four feet
beneath the coping and nearly on a
level with the surface of the ground,
with stone, three by four feet by
sixteen inches in thickness. covering
it.
Among the articles found in the
box were copy Of the Cherokee Ad-
yocate, Cherokee testament and a
record of the acts passed by the old
Cherokee council.
A. message from the principal chief
John Ross, to the Cherokees was
printed in the Advocate. but was so
badly mutilated that but little Of it
was legible. Among the acts passed
by the council was one dated October
IA, 1845, signed by w. S. Coady, pres
ident; A. Campbell, speaker, and
George Lowery, acting principal
chief, creating public burying ground
on the site now occupied by the Sc
quoyah school building, also an act
calling for an appropriation and the
erection Of tombstone over the
grave of George Lowery, assistant
chief
Dampness had caused much of the
contents to decay and there is much
disappointment among the Cherokees,
as they had expected to find a we'll
preserved message to posterity.
The box and contents will be plae-
ed in the Carnegie library and care
fully preserved.
The seminary building burned down

ROOSEVELT NOT EXPECTED
TO GIVE MUCH CRITICISM


nouncement from Italy that Theodore
Roosevelt has promised Clifford Pin
chot that ae viii make an address
before the National Conservation con-
gress this summer has been received
with enthusiasm by the friends of
Pinchot, who see in Mr.. RooseveIt's
acceptance an indication that he has
thrown his influence to the Pinchot
side in the controversy with Secre.
|tary Ballinger They are convinced
that those rambles over the noun
tains, about Porto Maurizio, Pinchot
has won over to his support his for
mer chief, and they believe Roosevelt
win come back ready to take the
Pinchot end of the argument.
Non-partisans do not attribute
much significance to the acceptance
by Colonel Roosevelt to speak at the
conservation congress. AS the man
who initiated the conservation policy
upon a large scale, Colonel Roosevelt,
naturally would attend and address
the congress. Thomas R. Shipp, sec
retary of the National Conservation
Association. today received from Mr..
Pinchot a cable stating that Roose-
welt has accepted the invitation The
date of the congress and the place
where it is to be held have not yet
been decided, but it is settled that
some city between Chicago and Den
yer will get it.
The fact that Roosevelt is to speak
and uphold the policy Of conservation
does not imply that he will take a
hand in the Ballinger-Pinchot contro-
versy. As a close friend of Pinchot
he naturally feels a strong sympathy
for his former chief forester, but it
is not believed that he will criticise
the president for dismissing Pinchot
or attempt to pass upon the merits of
that famous dispute. Before his adj
dress has been delivered the joint
committee of congress will have rem.
dered its verdict and there is little
doubt here that it will favor Ballinger.
IN view of the evidence taken before
this investigating committee it is like
" that Roosevelt will take issue with
the committee
Furthermore. before this session OF
congress adjourns bills win have been
passed looking to the conservation Of
the natural resources and strength
ening the present laws so there can be
no doubt raised az to the sincerity OF
the present administration regarding
the conservation policy. So that there
will be no room for criticism in this
respect.
Republican leaders Of congress, Of
fcials of the congressional campaign
committee and those who are iden-
titled with the management of the
last campaign are almost unanimous
in the belief that Colonel Roosevelt
will return with an endorsement Of
the Taft administration. an approval
of the Payne-Aldrich tariff law, and
a general commendation of what has
been accomplished during the first
year of his successors term. Upon
his influence they are banking to set
matters Strengthened out and save the
next house Of representatives. Roose-
velt's approval Of the tariff law will
rob the opposition Of most of its cam

 The amount received for the group could not be learned. ether than that it runs into the thousands. The A-~ 'ssue group is favorably situated for development. being less than one mile

 The zone 1t lies ia has recently ,cme into prominence through pros oecting at several points and the be- 'ief prevails that in a short time an attractive mineral coalition will be demonstrated on the property. this be
 ng passed upon the results attending recent work on the claims taken over " Mir. Carmen. who has made an ex- teusive examination.
 While total Of but three hundred feet of work is shown on the prop erty, in shafts and tunnels. the show ing is said to be decidedly attractive, and an ore body running from six feet to twelve feet is cut into. carry ing values in gold silver and copper the former metal predominating.
 Attached to the property is the opin- ion of experienced mining men that it is on the Assure that cuts through that section to the Blue Bell mines, and through this link it is probable that the sale takes place. possessing. as the ores do, an identity similar to the latter. and which is now rated as one of the biggest copper bonanzas in the country.
 That the property merits explora- ton on a extensive scale is shown by Mir. Carmen preparing to go ahead on that line He will build at once several houses for the accommodation of the camp, and place as many min CTS 10 work as the present openings will permit h short he will push work at once. and intends to operate On a permanent basis.

FOUR | MEN
 ABANDON OFFICE
Engineer c. s. fleming With His Force Quits Douglas and Belief Is That Railroad Is Abandoned,

DOUGLAS. Jan. Special )-
 The Four C's company today aban- doned the offices which were opened by its railroad engineering party last spring and have ever since been oc- cupied by c. s. Henning and his as sistants. This move on the part of the company comes as distinct sur prise. for although it was known that one party of engineers had been laid off. it was understood Shat the work was being continued by the other par ty.
 An International representative called upon Mr. fleming and asked whether the company was abandon ing the building of the read. To the question Mr Henning stated that he vas unwilling to put it tfet way T cennos say that the company is ahan- dohins this project of railroad build ing for all time said he. On the contrary believe that the road win sometime be bril.. Just when or how I cannot say"
 When the news of the concession by the Mexican government for the building of a railroad from Cananea to Douglas and from Agua Prieta to the Madeira country reached Douglas 1t was a cause of much rejoicing both here and in Cananea. for the impor- tance of joining the camp with the Shelter City was fully understood. This announcement was made after mysterious surveying party had started work and for a time before it was learned who had the conses sion there was much discussion on the subject and many surmises. With company being the corporation at the head of the project came hopes for great smelter and this hope will not now be abandoned even if the railroad project seems dropped for the time being, for there are other ways for the bringing of the ore into Douglas than ty the construction of the new road.
 The work Of connecting Douglas and Cananea by telephone win be continued and W. P. Hogan. who has this matter in charge will leave to- morrow to resume the putting in Of the line.
 Engineer Henning will leave t5- night for Fl Paso.

the one it replaces and better able to stand the heavy strain put upon it.
 At the Lowell shaft. on the f400 level, the ore body encountered some time since is proving immense in size. 100 feet having already been gone through with no sign of reaching the further wall. The phenomenal find of ore in porphyry on the Holbrook 100 is still the wonder of mining men of the district. More than forty feet of solid sulphide enclosed in porphyry has been passed through with no appearance of being ready to give out. This seems to explode the crevise the oIy and prove that it is a regular ore body
 The Uncle Sam shaft started up during the week. the raise being got ten through on the E level under the ore body recently encountered A shoot will be installed in order that the ore may be transported over the 200 level of the Czar shaft.

veiopment work which has been done means a great deal not only for the owners of many of these properties. but for Albuquerque as we'll. The hunt for gold. which was carried on for years in these mountains and without any very great result. has now developed into a careful search for deposits of the baser metals, lead. zinc and copper. and these are being found in large deposits. Lead and copper particularly are being devel- oped and to those who are familiar with the present stage of these dis tricts 1t is no longer a question as to the existence of values but as to when the capital will be secured to bring about development.

 At the Cole shaft, on the 1900 level, they are cutting some fine looking leached and broken ground, with streaks of ore. It is regarded as ex. celleRt country to prospect for ore and appears to have all the charac. teristics of ground that is close to ore bodies.

The rate, as suggested my the Surety

While a considerable amount of the
