were. AS ne occupied my tent Wilh me l happen to know that the shine was all there was to it. because he didn't get co handle any tremendous amount Of the real thing. So after q couple of months Jackson began to get blue. He was game. though. and didn't let on tO the crowd. bat he'd talk to me of an evening in the tent. He said he'd been broke so long that he wanted a little money just iO show as a curiosity He had been working --subbin he called It. on the Bisbeo papers. and the men holding down tho regular jobs didn't lay on enough to give him a chance 70 make room rent So he figured that if Sylyanite was as live at II appeared 10 be he might frame up a scheme 10 make some money out of a paper. He made up a sample which he called a dun. my-and went 10 the depot to tall; with some Of the fellows abont it, and if they were pleased he would go back un town and rustic ads & couple of days, borrow carfare from sone printer and go to Sylyanite and start inc Sun There was q crowd at the depot. lot of them going to Sylvan ite. and It so happened that the print er-fellow struck old Doc Wilkerson first Say there was a boomer Well. Doe took to it like a pickerel, and then and there paid his 8 and was enrolled as the first subscriber. Sol Camp bought a subscription. and SO did l. So then Jackson then had S546 he had 70 cents when he start. edl This made him feel so good that he bought @ ticket and went right tO the camp that day, and after taking in several more subscriptions he went back to Bisbee, got some ads. induc- cd some printer 10 do some work and hastened back to the greatest gold camp on the continent. as he stated in the Sun. We'll, 10 get back 10 the story. He was SOt doing we'll at all, and was feeling more than blue, when one day a dapper little fellow swung off the stage, shook hands with every body about, and said that he was go ing to run a paper that would be a paper; that he had newspapers from British Columbia 10 Australia, anu from southern Mexico 10 Tonopaa, and that what he had forgotten about the business was great deal more than most men knew about the news .Taper business today-besides that. he was a mining engineer, he sand. and could and was willing to make re- ports. He sure cut wide swath of hot air And he started the paper. It was the last straw--JaCkson got out another issue of the Sun and just laid down He got a job soliciting for a mining paper and left for Court land, and the last ] heard of hlm. about a year ago, he was trying his best 10 sell lots in COurtland But the other one-weli he was a hot number.
 I don't remember the name of his paper. but I do call to mind that he evolved a scheme to sell stock in Fl Paso; that he got us all to put up a lot of stock, and also to pay his rail. road fare to the Texas city But the Fl Pasoans, it seems, were not in search of SylVlnite stock, so present ly we had a wire from the new man asking for money to come home on We dug it up, because it was an aw. ful slam for the editor of our paper to walk home But after that he did n't have the heart that he had had. and finally, somehow, he got out O, town and went to PhOeniX He could mt get anythig to do there, so start ed a mining journal to tide him oveE ran il a month or two and left for California
 ~oh yes, I remember sylvanite all right
 "DJu meet Bill Kennedy when you was at George Young's property a, Golfields?" one Of the loungers ask ed, and l said that ] did meet him, and found him an affable gentleman and one Of the finest in the mining business.
 Tn reason [ ast," continued ihis miner, was that tn other eyenin' you you'd got a number O relics from th 'Pache Kids stronghold on the Upper qlg Well, Bin Kennedy knows more about tn 'Pache Kid than an. body in this country: an 1t happens that l c'n tell y som'thin' int'restin'. too. When th' Kid was young chap he was omitted [ leave tn res 'yation at San Carlos and go int Globe | look for wOk. Tn Kennedys was a.

 Tn Apache Kid, as ev'body knows. killed a man. but yer few know that he killed him for grossly insulting him, though sich is tn case. An that low-downed trick of a white officer O the American army made tn 'Pache
