Canyon Diablo Meteorite

Under operation, in Coconlno County, near Canyon Diablo, Arizona, at the present time, is one of the most novel and inn portant mining projects that has ever been undertaken in the southwest, that of the attempt to recover a large meteorite which is supposed to be imbedded Ill tbe ground at the point now being worked.
 This gigantic mining task is under the supervision of Mir. $. Holsinger, a prominent mining engineer of the northern part of the Territory, well known in business circles.
 In speaking of this movement. Mir. Holsinger stated that it was his firm belief, supported by the theories of many scientific men, that the immense displacement in evidence at the point he is sinking on Is not an extinct era ter, but that the large opening is, in reality, dre to the intrusion of the soil by a meteorite that entered the ground generations ago.
 From rim to rim this opening IS about 4,9OO feet, and from what Mir. Holsinger can learn, 1t is supposed that the meteorite is lying at depth practically of 600 feet. The dimensions of .his heavenly body is compured as at least 300 feet in diameter, and has value in the minerals 1t holds, especially in nickel, at several hundred of thousands of dollars. [ Up to the present time the depth, n vertical shaft, reached is about 200 feet, where a body of water was encountered. Pump ing machinery is to be iptroduc- ed, when sinking will be resumed l he formation favors this note worthy work of exploitation; and, If the large ball is recov- cred, individual achievement will be handsomely rewarded.-The March Climatologlcal Record U. ;.

PREACHERS AVERAGE ONLY
 $636 A YEAR
The Official Figures Indicate They Have to Work Out
 side of the Pulpit

The average annual salary of minister of the gospel is but $636, in all the denomination represented in the compilations on this subject in Part I of a special report on the census of religious bodies for 1906, which IS now in press preparatory to its submission to United States Census Director Durand to Sec retary Nagel, of the Depart ment of Commerce and Labor. The report was compiled under the supervision of William (. Hunt, chief statistician of popu- lation in the census bureau, and the statistics were collected part ly by special agents.
 It is pointed out in the intro duction that this IS the first time an attempt has been made in the United States census to se- cure official statistics concerning salaries to be paid to ministers. 1t is. stated that the results of the census are not entirely satis- factory on account of the failure of some ministers to report their salaries and others to reporr with sufficient clearness. Of the grand total of 1S6 deuomina- tions in central United States, the report states that 15 have 10 regular ministry and 69 either pay no stated salaries or made returns which were not sufficiently complete to warrant tabulation.
 The denomination showing the highest average is the Unitarian with $1 ,653, while the denomin- ,tiors next in order are the Protestant Episcopal church, S1, PAP; the Universalists, $1 ,23S; the General Convention of the New Jerusalem in the United States of America, $1, ,233; the Presbyterian church in the United States of America, $1, ,17O; the United Presbyterian Church of North America, 1,O96; the Con. sregationallsts, $1.O42; the Christian Catholic Church in Zion, $1, 1,O37; and the Synod of the Reformed Presbyterian .hurch of North America, $1 ,O0S.
 In the case of the Roman Cath
 .lic church, the figures show but little difference between the aver lge and that of the various :lasses of cities or for the area outside of the principal cities, he reason being that in this de- nomination the salaries as fixed .ior the diocese being in general .he same for the rural districts as for the large cities.

ARIZONA IS RAPIDLY FORGING TO THE
 FOREFRONT
Development of Territory in the Past Few Years is
 Wonderful

Whatever may DC the result or the national census which has just been completed in Arizona, as showing the present popula- tion. says a special correspond ent writing from Bisbee. Arizona, to the Albuquerque Journal, the fact will remain that few states in the Union have made a great CT progress during the past de- cade than Arizona.
 Those who have resided here during that time, can look back ten years and see many large and prosperous communities which have appeared in Arizona in that time.
 The Bisbee Review has the fol- lowing: Every county. city and town has made substantial pro- g1ess both in industry and popu- lation. This progress has been especially noticeable in Gila and Graham counties in the southern part of the territory. Ten years ago, Globe was not one fifth of the size of the present metropolis of Gila county. Globe has had wonderful growth, and ten years ago the present rival of Globe - Miami - was without habitation and had never been marked on the map.
 In Cochise county there has been even greaterprogress in the matter of population and busi- ness industry during the nast decade. Douglas had only just been marked for a site of the splendid city with it's populati tion of ten thousand, including the additions which have since been platted and settled. COurtland, one of the important mining towns of the territory, is anoth- CT addition to the importance of Cochise county within the last three years. Bisbee has doubled its importance and population many times since the year 1900, when the Calumet & Arizona Mining company had just begun the development of the great copper properties which are now feeding the splendid reduction works owned by that company in Douglas; the Superior Pitts burg came later with it's splen- did success and consequent ad- dition to the population and prosperity of the Warren dis trict. The new town of Warren, with it's handsome homes and a population of more than one thousand, is a product of the last decade. Tombstone, Benson and Wilcox have all advanced in importance and population, and added to this growth is the hundreds of settlers in the Sul- phur Springs valley.
 In other portions of Arizona we find the same evidence oi growth in many of the counties Tucson has made good progress and is still going ahead with brighter prospects than ever. Then there is the vast addition to population and industry at Ray, Winkelman and all along the line of the Phoenix & East. ern railroad. Florence has be. come more important and popu- lous than 1t was ten years ago. In the Salt River valley the growth, especially in recent years, has been rapid. Phoenix, the capital city, has been on a veritable boom for two years, and has substantially increased in population.

CONTRIBUTED TO THE
DELINQUENCY OF
YOUNG GIRLS

Six months in the county Jail was
the punishment melted out yester-
day afternoon by Justice Mann of
the police court to Clyde Fugate,
aged II, when arraigned on a
charge of contributing to the delin-
quency of two young girls. Fugate
was telegraph operator for the
Northern Pacific at Vim. few
miles southwest Of Spokane. He
was arrested about 10 days ago
with Ray Sinclair, aged 20, also a
telegraph operator, at Marshall
Junction.
Sinclair is already serving out a
fine of $500 in the county jail, hav-
ing admitted that he and Fugate
had kept the girls with them for
two days. Fugate made light OF
the case and laughed much of the
time while being tried.

WHILE GROSSCUP SAILS THE
NILE THERE is A FINE
SCALP HUNT ON IN
WASHINGTON

WASHINGTON, May 11.-Sub-
scribers and supporters of the APP
peal to Reason, the socialist paper
published weekly at Girard, kas.,
are rejoicing at the action taken
recently by Representative A. D..
SABBATH of Illinois, in introducing a
resolution in congress asking for
an investigation of the methods OF
handling receiverships in the fed
eral courts. Socialists feel that the
investigation of the federal judges
asked for comes as climax to a
series of disclosures the Kansas
publication has been making OF the
private and public career of United
States Judge Peter S. Grosscup.
SABBATH says that if it could be
shown to him that the Chicago
jurist had done things which war
ranted Impeachment proceedings
he would press the resolution, al
ready introduced. The Appeal to
Reason declares it possesses the
proof of corruption on the part OF
Judge Grosscup, and that If a con-
gressional investigation is ordered
it will produce that proof
The Appeal to Reason began the
publication of a series of stories,
disclosing what it declared was the
private and public career of Judge
Grosscup, in the latter part of Jan
uary Through a special CORE
spondent the paper ran these
stories weekly during the six or
seven weeks. They dealt first with
personalities in the extreme, and
finally with official acts, what pur-
ported to be alleged happenings In
Judge Grosscup's life from the
time when he lived as boy at
Ashland, Ohio, to his most recent
decision in the United States cir
cult court at Chicago.
At the conclusion of the disclos-
ures Eugene V. Debs spoke at an
immense mass meeting at Orches-
ira hall, in Chicago, where in he
flayed Judge Grosscup mercilessly,
challenging the judge to meet him
in debate and disprove the charges
preferred. Shortly after the Debs
meeting, Judge Grosscup left Chi
cago for Egypt, where, he said, he
intended to remain several months.
Briefly, the charges against
Judge Grosscup, as to his official
conduct, as preferred by the Ap-
peal to Reason, are:
That he used railroad passes and
private Pullman cars in going
about the country.
That he was charged before the
United States supreme court with
doing things in the Union traction
receivership which were unbecom-
ing in a Judge, and for which he
should have been punished.
That he committed actual en-
bezzlement on one occasion, and
forced the clerk of the court to be-
come an accessory to the crime.
That he started his judicial ca
reer as a poor man, and in Is years
amassed a fortune of several mil
lions.
To none of these charges has
Judge Grosscup replied.
If Representative Sabath's reso-
luton results in an investigation
of Judge Grosscup the truthfulness
of the charges made by the Appeal
to Reason will be put to the test
Recently the Chicago Federation of
Labor considered a resolution
which carried with it the demand
