Fred B. Emery, Who Lived and Worked In Phoenix "Three or Four
 Years Ago.

The difficulties of the city police de- partmcnt are not alone concerned with present happenings. Every now and then the marshall receives a request for information about some person whose memory long ago faded from the re- collection of the oldest citizen or a request for details about some occur renee dated away back before the be- ginning of the present century.
 Yesterday he received letter from a Los Angeles attorney requesting in formation regarding a man named Fred E. Emery who lived in a hunger cot tage in Phoenix, and worked il. some saloon three or four years ago"

OSTR|CHES VICTIMS
 OF LIGHTNING BOLT
Two Valuable Birds Killed Yesterday morning on Pan American Ostrich
 Farm.

Two OStrichs were struck by Tighten ing and instantly killed on the Pan American Ostrich Farm yester- day morning. The birds were standing alone in the middle of d large field when the flash struck them, and were found a few minutes later. 1t was about 1O:3O when they were discovered by the ranch foreman who found no scare or burns on their bodies.
 This is the first time in the history of the ostrich raising industry of the salt River valley that any of the big birds have been killed by Tightening. Whether their long necks acted as a Tightening conductor and carried the electricity directly to them. or whether the bolt struck the ground near them is not known. The owners of the birds are more concerned about the loss of S1, 900 than about the exact course the light ening took to put them out of exis- tenCe.

BAMBOO BRIDGES IN JAVA.

In Java the government engineers have recently constructed a road bridge more than 100 feet long. with a central span of over sixty feet. en- tirely of bamboo. The roadbed is composed of bamboo mating, which will be covered with a layer of dry earth. In profile the bridge resem- bles a steel structure. but all the members are bamboo rods. It is es- timated that such a bridge should be good for ten or fifteen years. Thers are, two kinds of bamboo used in building and cabinet-making in the east-one having solid and the other hollow stems. The solid, seen in Jap csc furniture, is much smaller than the hollow. but both belong to the same species. In the construction of bamboo houses no nails are used. The parts are bound together with lashings formed from the skin of the bamboo itself

REDUCTION PLANT
 WILL BE INSTALLED
Showing in Pacific Copper Mines Will
 Justify Expenditure.

". V. De Camp, general manager of the Pacific Copper Mining Company, who left for Kansas City last Wcdnes day will consult with thestockholdcrs in regard to recent determinations made on the property says the Prescott Journal Miner. He is very optimistic of the outlook. and during his absence It is probably that the question of talk ing up the introduction of reduction works will be considered.
 That this move is warranted will be borne out by what is in evidence through exploitation accomplished in the past few months at the deepest points under development. From the 45g-fOot level an extensive system of mine work is under way. four drifts being run with Croscutting of four veins that lie to the west. and which were exploited to limited depth from the surface This work has progressed to such an extent that the first vein was cut blind. and demonstrated an unlocked for mineral condition. car rying heavy values in gold, but de- crease in copper percentages. This re ViVed interest in the possibilities or the property. and occasioned a stimu- lating effect to carry out tn" large plan of exploitation inaugurated.
 The second vein by this cross-cut is of immense size running to 3i feet, and giving values of g. a ton of gold, while streaks run as high as SIG ton. The third vein is just being entered with no results determined in mineral conditions. over 1000 feet of drifting is outlined while the crosscut will be continued to the west side lines until the fourth vein is reached
 During the absence of MT. DeCamp the interests of the company are being looked after by C. W. Mitchell. vice president. who arrived a few days ago from California.

Finances and Markets :;

New York, Aug. 21-The week. s stock market opened with a renewal, in a mild form of the downward movement which played much havoc with prices of securities for almost a month. There was al moderate sell ling which again concentrated on the leaders, Union Pacific, Reading and United States Steel The dealings with these issues for the first three hours of the sessions constituted over seventy-five percent of the whole. Developments offered little incentive to activity on the bull side Perhaps the most discouraging event was the announcement by the Hartman sys- tenn of an intention to embark on a comprehensive policy of retrenchment on account of the unsatisfactory earn ings. It is understood that the pro posed curtailment will effect several thousand employees in the clerical de- partments of the Union Pacific and Southern Pacific lines and may later embrace the operating divisions
 Incidentally this action is accepted as an indirect response to the recent demands of various employees for i'm creased pay and shorter hours. The pressure against United States Steel was more pronounced than at any recent period and heavy offerings of stock, according to gossip, resulted from fear that the report soon be sub mitted to President Taft by the de- partment of commerce labor would hardly be favorable Trading lang uished the greater part of the session after the first hour. In the very late business there vas a moderate increase of activity however, at the expense values, with Union Pacific falling to it's previous low level of the day. According to the statements of the western railway officials traf- fic in that section is holding steady with the general merchandise move ment. the most sustaining factor. Money rates in the west are showing increased firmness. Bonds are heavy with further weakness in American Tobacco four per cent Total sales. par value, $1,5O7. 900. Government bonds unchanged O call

THIRD CARLOAD OF
 FINE ORE SHIPPED
Yavapai Metals Co.,, Continues tc
 Send Rich Ore to Shelter.

While in Prescott last Thursday from the camp of the Yavapai Metals Mining Company R. B. Stanland, Su- perintendent, and George McGarvey, a stockholder, stated that another carload of high-grade ore is on the dump, and will be shipped to Hum boldt tomorrow. This will be the third car shipped in the last four months. and is of exceptional inter est from the fact that it is the high est grade that has ever been pro- duced in the mine.
 The ore runs forty-eight per cent in copper. with small gold values. and comes from the deepest workings. NIr Stanland, in speaking of the de Velopment. states that the main shaft is down 230 feet, and the grade of ore is richer than has ever before been known in the property. with the vein stronger and showing better indications of permanency.
 Following this shipment, limited work will be carried on owing to the installing of a large hoist, and the discarding of the whim, which is i'm practicable owing to the depth. MeSsrS Stanland and McGarVey give publicity that when returns are re- ceiyed from these shipments; not a cent of indebtedness will be outstand- ing and there will be healthy sur plus in the treasury. The property has been paying from the grass roots, and although development to pre- sent depth has been expensive, this remarkable showing is of more than usual interest.
 The Yavapai Metals property is To- cated about six miles east of Hum boldt. and to the northeast of Mayer, in a zone that never attracted any attention until development brought it into prominence within the last six mOnhs

Chase Creek Copper Go.

s. S. Campbell, of Boston, general manager of the Chase Creek Copper Co.,, in which I. N. Stephens of this city is heavily interested, was visitor in Clifton last week, coming over from Stafford where he is also interested in mining and irrigation enterprises in that section. The tunnel on the Chase Creek property, which consists of for ty claims, is now in 20OO feet and with in the next three hundred feet it is the expectation of MT. Stephens to cut the big dyke which shows on the surface at depth of twelve hundred feet. Work on the tunnel, with this end in view, has been going on for the past two years, sometimes with a large force and sometimes with small shift, as the finances of the company would permit. It is expected that the big dyke will be intersected sometime during 1913.-Clifton Copper Era.

MinsheIs Make Good.

JIM. Rusby's Minstrels played to a crowded tent last night. They were by far the finest minstrel troupe that ever visited our city under canvas. Anyone who likes minstrel shows could not help but be pleased at their sing ing and dancing, which was greeted by round after round of applause. The show is new, clean and up-to-date, re- plete with new songs, and certainly deserved the excellent patronage which it received.-Alva Daily News.

Large Exhibit of Minerals for Fair.

Having collected mineral specimens and arranged for the shipment of large exhibits from every camp in Eastern and Southern Arizona, James Goodwin superintendent of the mining depart ment of the state fair, has returned to Phoenix and Tempe He was highly successful in his mission and returns with the cheering news that Arizona is not dead in a mining way, as so many persons seem to think.
 From Phoenix Goodwin went to Ray, then on to Globe, Miami, Clifton, Nor enci, Douglas, Bisbee, Tombstone and Tucson. His success in Tucson was conspicuous. There he arranged for the mineral exhibit that is being col lected for the Pima county fair to be shipped to Phoenix as soon as that show is over.
 Everywhere that he went Goodwin was treated courteously by the big companies as we'll as by the prospectors. Among the companies that agreed to ship exhibits of their ores to the fair are the Ray Consolidated, Miami Cop per, Old Dominion, Shannon, Detroit, Arizona, Copper Queen, Calumet & Arizona and Tombstone Consolidated. With the exhibits these companies will ship, what Goodwin brought back with him and what the small mine owners agreed to bring or send, the mining department will have an exhibit far greater than ever before.
 On his return Goodwin received the cheering news that the Magma con- pany, operating at Superior, has struck the ledge in the crosscut from the 800 foot level. This ledge, which is one of the richest copper ledges ever uncover ed iu Arizona, was eight feet wide at the 800. Its width at the lower depth is yet to be determined. Goodwin is specially interested in the Magma be- cause he owns fifteen claims just south which look as promising on the surface as anything the Magma company owns. -Phenix Democrat.

Nihoglycenne Drunk.

The Giornale di Medecina Militare of Rome gives an interesting account of intoxication by nitroglycerin among operatives in an Italian powder factory. The nitroglycerin was used in manu- featuring two powerful explosives, sol anite and balistite. In the process a vapor is created and this inhaled by the workmen, produces intoxication. It may also, with like result, be i'm bib ed through the skin. It was noticed by the laborers that the use of alcoholic drink made them more liable to intox- ication from the nitroglycerin. In some cases the poisoning was quite acute. There was lowering of arter- ial tension by dilation of the small art cries, the pulse was large and there were marked changes in the cerebral circulation. There were dull headach- es and pain in the abdomen, due to a paresis of the muscular coats of the intestlnes.

Cox for several months has thoroughly prospected the property by pumping to higher ele- vation and then sluicing the ground, the results being satisfactory. To more extensively operate has been de- cided upon by introducing a modern plant.

Out of the Ordinary is the
 Great London Shows

Something out of the ordinary" is a remark that can properly be made of Howe's London Shows Consolidated, which will exhibit at Kingman Octo- Der 12th.
 The big circus has reputation for producing remarkable surprises in it's arena until the public has learned that it can attend an exhibition of the Great London Circus expecting to see something new and different.
 There is an unusual number of feat ures with this show this season. It is different to pick the best. Some will like the trained wild beasts exhibi- tion or horse wonders. Others will prefer the Eddy Family, Meredith Troupe, the Riding Wallets, the Glasgow Royal Horses, the Elite Troupe, while some will spend most of the time laughing at the host of clowns, listening to the Julium Wins low famous band, enjoying the races. admiring the animals or betting the beautiful Dublin Prize Horses. No matter which way one looks while un- der any one of the Howe tents, he is sure to see something out of the or dinary.

Word comes from Flagstaff that while working north of Belmont few days ago a party consisting of James F. Cox, Henry L. Hagle and J. C.. Thomas discovered a cave nearly a mile in length. From the entrance the tunnel goes down at an angle of about 50 degrees for about 100 feet, then opening into large tunnel about 200 yards in length; a cave in for distance of about 100 feet can be fol- lowed in a crouching position. The floor is burned slag or lava formation and the roof solid mass of malpai.
