THE MUNICIPAL WELL COMPLETED.
q Eine Water Supply Assured for the
 Town ot NoRaies.

Saturday last, at o'clock in the evening, Pete Larsen and Frank Manninn, contractors. completed the drift from the municipal well they had sunk for he Town of No gales, on the Santa Cruz, breaking through the bedrock into the un- delfow of the river at least thirty feet below the river bed, filling the we'll quickly to the level of the stream, and assuring an abundant supply of water for all purposes.
 From the plans and surveys made the contractors knew they were close to the river bed and soon would break through the rock into the sand. The first hole driven for a new blaat broke through in 34 feet, throwing into the drift stream of water that had all the force of hydraulic ram. The two Mexicans who were doing the drilling rushed out of the drift in fright, fearing they would not escape, in their flight knocking down Mir. Larsen, who was mucking in the drift. After they had passed Larsen made his way to the face of the drift and succeeded in plugging the drill hole and stopping he flow of water with his shovel handle. Then the water that had come was baed out and the men returned to the face of the drift, into which they drilled @ number of holes, taking care not to break through the rock. The drill holes made were loaded with sticks of giant powder, we'll tamped, the fuses lighted, and all hands went to the surface to await the final explosion, which came very quickly. The blast tore out the rock, and quickly the rushing water filled the well to a point within twenty feet of the top.
 As sunk the we'll is fifty seven feet deep. Leaving stump of seven feet a drift was run toward the river bed at depth of fifty feet, and at the end of forly-hve feet that reached the river bed as des. cribed, giving an inexhaustible flow of water, whence to draw municipal water supply.

The Skibo Mining Company.

The caption of this article is the name of new corporation for which articles of incorporation were filed yesterday in the office of the recorder of Santa Cruz county, which is organized to take over and develop the properties at Now ry which were taken in hand last year by the Queen Bess Mining Company an enterprise which was promoted by ;. F. Johnson, of Four Metals notoripty. The gen lpmen who are foremost in organization of the new company were enlisted by Mir. Johnson in the Queen Bess enterprise. At that time they be- came satisfied entirely and com plelely with the merits of the prop. critics, and when the company then framed was wrecked by the devious ways of the promoter they pocketed their losses in that investment, paid the debts of the company, took steps toward getting legal title to the properties, which has heen done successfully; and now the new company is launched to take over the same properties and carry forward a legitimate enter prise, such as the capitalists con- ducting it have made a practice of doing.
 The gentlemen who are interested in the new company, as incorpOra- tors, directors and principal share holders, are among the leading business men of Kansas City. They are financing the enterprise with their own money and that of busi ness assOcialeS-they are not going to the general public to dispose of shares with exorbitant commits sions; but every dollar paid for stock is to he devoted to legitimate development work
 The directors and officers of the Skibo Mining < Developmnet Go. are follows, viz: J. A. Rilzler. president; Vernon Ross, vice president; Otto Zimmer, treasurer; Edward c. Wright, secretary; Fred J. Miller. The first four named are all resi- dent in Kansas City. MT. Miller, the fifth director, resides at Mowry, in charge of the property, and is the superintendent and statutory sgeot for the company.
 1t is expected that work will be- gin on the property within a very few weeks.

SANTA CRUZ COUNTY
An Interesting Collection of Items
 From the Rural Regions.

Frazier Brothers, contractors and builders at EIgin, are taking con- tracts to build houses, barns, fences, etc, for the new settlers coming into the region about that station.
 On the mountain section of the Nogales- Washington road, on the west side of the Patagonia noun tains, R. Y. Rankin, with force of la aborers, is engaged in doing some much needed repair work and put ting the road into good condition.
 The Red Cone Mining Company has instructed it's superintendent, Mir. Fred. J. Miller, to build road from it's tunnel site down to the house of Mir. R. T. Rankin, in the Cafion below, whence a short road leads up to the Nogales- Washing ton road. The new road that is to built will be about two miles long, and when completed a wagon can be driven from Nogales to the tun- mel, over a good road, a distance of about sixteen miles. Now to get to that point a drive of twenty-nine or thirty miles has to be made via Mowry to the camp in Guajolote Flat, thence by trail about mile down into the cafion nearly a thousand feet below; or else go by rail to Patagonia, and drive eigh- teen miles to Guajolote Flat.
 It is reported that the mnddled condition of the affairs of the Consolidated Mines, Shelter X Transportation Company, the San- ta Cruz Mining < Smelling Com pany, the Alto Copper Company, the Mowry Mining Company, the Southwestern Development Com pany, ct. al etc., & c. are to be complicated yet further by peti- lion to the United States Court at Tombstone to throw the hydra headed concern into involuntary bankruptcy, the petition to be made or behalf of certain creditors. 1. will be recalled that at the re. cent session of the district court judgments were entered against some of the concerns named. o her creditors than those instituting those suits, are reported enlisted in the new move.

MID ROSES and LILIES
Her BIER WAS MADE
Funeral Of Mrs. Allen Fort
Saturday

In the presence of a fearful con-
course. the numbers attesting the love
and esteem in which she was held, the
final tribute was paid Mrs. Allen Fort
yesterday, when hundreds looked upon
the floral bier where rested one who
was beloved of all.
The deeply impressive service was
held at First Baptist Church, and was
conducted by Rev. Walton Galloway
of Macon, and the pastor, DR.. Lansing
Burrows.
The handsome casket, covered with
magnificent floral emblems, rested
midst wilderness of beautiful roses,
ferns, white carnations and lilies OF
the valley, many exquisite designs
coming from friends in Washington
and other cities
An organ offertory was rendered
by Miss Florence Mills as the funeral
party entered, followed with an an
them by the choir. A beautiful pray
er was offered by Rev. T. F. Galloway,
after which Dr. Burrows read touch
ing and appropriate scriptural pas
sagcs.
The solo of Miss James Harris, 4
Shall See Him Face to Face" was
very effectively rendered.
The tribute paid the deceased by
Rev. Walton Galloway was one of the
most beautiful ever delivered upon
like occasion here, and in the vast
assemblage of sorrowing friends there
was scarcely dry eye when the gift
ed young speaker had finished
The exercises were concluded at Oak
Grove Cemetery, where the body of
this loved one rests beside that Of
him whom she loved so we'll.

COMPETITION is KEEN
FOR CITY CONTRACTS
Both Sewerage and Paving
Contracts Eagerly Sought

Many are the bids on the paving
and sewerage contracts which have
been submitted to city council since
the call for bids was made short
time ago. The competition for these
contracts is very keen, as the spirit
ed rivalry shows.
Another feature of the competition
which is Interesting is that the num-
Der of bids made for the sewerage
contracts is as great as those offered
for the paving contracts, a fact that
is most gratifying as sewerage con
tracts are not usually as eagerly
sought as the contracts for paving.
This serves to show that the firms
seeking contracts for the civic i'm
provements here anxious to obtain
these contracts.
About eight or ten bids have been
made on the sewerage Improvements
and about an equal number on the
paving improvements. though this
number may be increased before the
time for the closing of the bids TO-
morrow night. Representative f
each of the competing firms are here
to look after the interests of their res
pective companies. Sealed bids VIII
be presented in all cases.
To City Engineer Ansley and his as
sistants is due the greatest credit for
securing so many bidders on the con-
tracts in so short a time, as it has
been but little more than two weeks
since the decision was made to close
the bids tomorrow night By sending
out a large number of circular letters
to the principal firms throughout the
country, a large number Of responses
have been received, embracing bids
from makers of all the principal kinds
of paving materials.
1t is interesting to note that the
competition among the representatives
of the different kinds of paving mate
rials, vitriied brick, wood block, as
phalt and bitulithic is pretty uniform.
Each of these different firms is repre-
sented by two or three bidders, SO that
the rivalry between the firms repre-
senting the differnt kinds of paVingI
is keen.

Other Points Offer inducements Ii
Men viii Go TheFG.-.ThFee Games
With DOthan Here This Week.

Recognizing merit wherever seen
nd willing TO pay the price for the
rare gems in the diamond setting, tbs
league teams have begun verit ,be
onslarsh upon the Americus team
with the md in view of securing, il
possible, a half dozen of the stal
twirlers making up that very excel
lent aggreG stion.
The eyes of professional balldon
have rested upon Americus recel.ly
aud tie money changers want Iul
goods But we have nothing we wish
to spare.
The Americus team is doing bettal
work than any non-league team in the
state, and quite as good as that u
many of the league bunches. In fac,
Americus is ready and willing to play
any league ball team in Georgia.
But the other fellows are after oar
swatters, and on yesterday overtur3s
were made for four of the best men
on the Americus team to join league
teams. kilograms and letters to this
effect came from Selma. Macon and
other towns where strengthening d
teams is deemed essential by manage
ment and fans.
So far as could be ascertained last
night, there will be no cutters among
the locals, but the strong attempt
made to get them away evidences the
appreciation put upon the Americus
bunch in other baseball towns.
But we have the goods thus far, and
the hope is that we keep the team in
tact for the season.
This week, Americus has three
games-and good ones they will be
with Dothan, Ala, which boasts the
best bunch in all Alabama The Doth
anese are eager to try results with
Americus and are coming for games
on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday
There will be, then, the niftiest play
ing of the entire season.
No other dates are scheduled for
the week, but these crackajacks will
serve to keep the fans in a perfect
brainstorm of delight
1t is proposed to put Wilder in the
box for tomorrows game, with Lee
to do the twirling Tuesday and Baker
on Wednesday. A rousing crowd
should see these games, for there Will
be none better played anywhere
