SEN. LORIMER RETAINS SEAT
BEvERiDGE's RESOLUTION TO
DUST HIM Is LOST.
Vcte in the Senate This Afternoon
Stood 46 to 40 in Favor Of the
Illinois Senator.

Washington, D. c., March 1.-Spe.
cial: William Lorimer will retain his
seat in the senate. The vote on the
Beveridge resolution TO declare him
not legally elected was lost As to 40.
There were crowds in the gallery.
Senator Owens made speech declar.
ing Lorimer's election was by fraud.
Four senators were absent.
Calm After the Storm.
Washington, Mar. la sweet spir-
1t of Cancellation and compromise, SUI
perinduced by the rigors of all night
session moved insurgents and stand
pat senators to lay down their axes
and get together. Before adjourn
ment 1t was decided first to take a
vote this afternoon on the seating of
William Lorimer and to reach vote
on the bill providing for tariff board
as soon as possible thereafter.
Business to BE Expedited. s.
The arrangement which was engi.
ueered by a number of conferees. In
Guiding all Of the insurgents and a
few stand-patters gives promise OF
clearing the decks for the speedy en-
actment Of the business before the
senate. This business consists of the
appropriation of about 100000, 900 up
to the present the property of the
people of the United States.
The compromise thus effected is
considered by the insurgents the utter
defeat of Bailey, who has been threat
ening filibuster against the tariff
board bill since its inception. Bailey
sought to use the Lorimer case to
help him, but the filibuster that was
made against the vote on seating
Lorimer so wearied him of filibuster-
ing that he at last announced that he
would never filibuster more.
No Vote on Reciprocity.
It seems likely that there will be no
more talking merely for the sake of
killing measures at this session and
that all the business before the sen
ate, save possibly the reciprocity bill,
will go through with rush.
+ The FIVE appropriation bills which
Senator Hale will endeavor to bring
to vote are the agricultural bill. the
post Office bill, the fertilization bill
the diplomatic and consular bill and
the bill providing for military acade,
my supplies. ..a..s
This will leave to be considered
only the sundry civil bill, the navy
bill on which there Is going to be a
fight for battleships and the general
deficiency bill This will be pretty
good weeks work, but by working till
eleven o'clock every night there is a
chance that the senate will get
through with it by noon Saturday.
Senator Root, whose bill providing
that in case of deadlock lasting till
March l. the candidate before state
legislature for United States senator
shall be elected by popular vote has
also to come nm

NUMBERS RATTLERS
 AMONG HIS FRIENDS
How He Catches Them and SootbeS Them to
 Sleep.

When you see Henry Lehman. one Of the Ray newsboys. in the street with a bundle of papers under one arm and the hand or the other arm closed, look out for snakes, says the Copper Camp. Or if he has papers under both arms. don't be surprised to see snakes pobing their heads out of his trousers pocket. Henry is a snake charmer. Though but nine years old, those who know Master Henry's propensity for snakes look for serpents' heads protruding from his pockets or extending out from be- tween his fingers when they meet him.
 Usually the snakes carried about on his person are of the non-poisonous kind, but when Master Henry goes afeld for a fresh supply of snakes poisonous and all are gathered alike The other day he brought in a good specimen of the rattler Asked how he captured such a reptile he replied:
 Oh, they won't hurt you. You just put a rock on their tail so they can't jump and catch them by the head Rub a snake on the head and it won't bite you And Henry will eTrress any snake until it goes to sleep with shame.
 Henry keeps a number of his pets around home on Hercules Hill. He gives them their freedom to crawl around in the yard and under the floor or steps but usually knows where to find his snakes. He occa- sionally takes them to the creek and turns them loose in the water for least of fish. It is Henry's delight to see his sister at home go in the air to get over a snake, or make circles to get around

PROMINENT EDUCATORS
 AT TEACHERS INSTITUTE
Among Them Win Be Former Dean of Throop Poly-
 technic Institute
(By Oscar K. Goll.)

TOMBSTONE. Ariz., Sept. 14.-At the Cochise County Teachers insn- ute. which will be held in Bisbee dur ing the week of October 2-6, inclusive, there will be several prominent edu- cational instructors from different parts of the United States +se41.a will. before attenaing the institute at Sue big copper camp, come to Tombstolle on visit to the local schools, besid As visiting many other schools through out the county.
 These distinguished educators, the Misses Leta E. Severance. represent ing the Palmer system of writing, and Ida J, Webster, representing the Web knson, Mentzer and Grover course in applied arts drawing, have been as signed to this county as instructors to the teachers. during the time between September IS and October 2, their itinerary being as follows: Wilcox.

 Besides the above mentioned dis tinguished personages who will be present at the teachers gathering, will be R. H. H. Blome, president of the Northern Arizona Normal school and mem Der of the territorial board of education. Mir.

 The purpose of this teachers insti- tute is to help and inspire each teach CT in Cochise county to stronger work. No teacher should be satisfied unless he or she is teaching a better school this year than he ever did be- fore This institute is to assist the teachers to accomplish this particu- lar result, and consequently they can not afford to be absent when the meeting is called to order in Bisbee on October ?.

MINING NOTES
COPPER OF THE FUTURE.
 (El Paso Herald).

Michigan copper mines, while steadily increasing their tonnage. are finding that the metal content of the ores tends steadily to de crease. Many of the big Michigan mines are being worked at tre- mendous depth, but the ore bodies do not maintain their richness.
 Meanwhile the great low grade porphyry" mines of the west and southwest have undergone tremend- ous development It is said that by the end of next year the big low grade copper mines of the United States win be prepared to produce 50O,000,000 pounds per annum, or q third of the worlds supply. Up to ten years ago the stocks in the Lake Superior mines were almost the only ones traded in on the ex- changes; and Boston, which has long been the center of the copper share market, has never looked with favor on the great low grade propositions. Nevertheless, next year the low graders will produce two and one-half times as much copper as the Lake Superior district
 All this is mighty good news for Arizona and New Mexico, where some immense low grade mines are now being opened up. The future stronghold of the copper industry will be this Southwestern country, which now produces one-fourth of the worlds supply and will in few years be ready to take care or third or a half
 Southwestern New Mexico has some of the greatest low grade ton. mage propositions of the world Millions have been spent on devel- opment work in the New Mexico copper district and yet the world knows little of what has been going on there. Wherever a demand for copper rises ito normal, New Mex leo will be in shape to supply a large snare of the American pro duct.

PoReiEs ON NEW
 ENGLAND COAST.
lLeWistOn Journall


 Porgies are again found off the Maine coast The first fare landed in Portland in many years was brought in recently. There were oflly 24 bar rels, but the fact that they were DOT gies was of enough significance in itself These fish have been so rare in Maine waters that nobody seemed to know just when the last ones were brought in
 There was a time when the porgies were so plentiful that hundreds of barrels could be taken of and the bus mess of extracting -porgies' oil fell of to almost nothing in these parts Their appearance seems to be general along the whole New England coast. Up off Gloucester the fish are so plentiful that there is a fleet of 15 steamers engaged in catching them. They are rather. trying 10 catch them, for the porgies are wild and have no inclination to be taken in the nets.

Efficiency iRcre0sed,
 WaSfe Preusnfed

The proposed arrangement betwesn the Western Urion, tae Anglo Amer iczn and the Direct U. $. con npaaies will bring the eiyst cables of the three com panies under enc operating con trol. The consequent increase in effectiveness and economy will place the Western Union in position 10 oder certain advantages in cable service not now enjoyed by the public.
 The other way open to enable the Western Union 10 make such i'm PTovements and introduce such new services as il proposes 10 do, would be 10 lay new cables. This would seem to be the height of folly Duplication Of the existing trans Atlantic cable facilities at a cost Of many millions, when there are mere than ample facilities for ali business, would put an unnecessary financial burden upon sn already fully burdened business and would probably postpone the reduction of rates or introduction of new services.
