FINANCIAL STRINGENCY
 IN OFFICIAL CIRCLES.
Panic At The Court House When It Was Discovered Salary Warrants We're
 IInSi6ned.

There was consternation and almost a panic in the ranks of the county officials Wednesday morning when it was learned that J. H. T. Cosper, Chairman of the Board of Supervisors, had departed for his ranch on the Blue, after the adjournment of the April meeting of the Board, without having signed the warrants for the official salaries of the county officers.
 Probate Judge Shirley, who is an early riser and is generally the first arrival at the court house, made the discovery early Wednesday morning There were the warrants on the desk of the Clerk of the Board but they were not worth the paper they were written on without the official siguat ure of Chairman Cosper. The Pro- bate Judge was soon joined by other county officials who were interested parties and a council of strategy was soon in session with Judge Shirley in the chair. In the meatime Chair man Cosper was slowly vending his way up the Frisco with his family. He had departed at three o'clock the previous afternoon. The board of strategy decided that if Chairman Cosper could not come to the court house to sign the warrants, the war cants could be taken to Chairman Cosper. It was argued that Cosper was just as good a Chairman on the Blue as he was in Clifton, SO tar as practic results were concerned. A stringen financial situat tion existed and the concensus of opinion in official circles was that it must be relieved and the sooner relief was afforded, the better and more pleas ant it would be for all concerned.
 What was the use of being county official unless the county warrant, duly signed and negotiable at the bank, came around every month? So it was the unanimous decision that Clerk of the Board of Supervisors Wheatley should secure the swiftest horse in the camp, take the trail of Cosper, and follow it until he secured the signature of the Chairman of the
 Board to those salary warrants. At ten o'clock on Wednesday morning
 Wheatlev was spurred and mounted and accompanied by Deputy Recorder Bradfeld, with the unsigned warrants in his inside pocket, the Clerk started up the river to secure the signature of the Chairman. He overlook Cosper on the Blue Wednesday even ing and was back in his office Thurs day morning. The salary warrants were distributed and now every body is happy.

CdDlllIy CO the ore O0Qy ana OCner peculiar conditions at the Miami by Mime Superintendent Lawton is well along in its preliminary stage and moving with scientific precision. The 75-foot-deep ore pocket on the 420-foot level, at the south of the main shaft (No. 4) is not yet com pleted in detail, the concrete fioored electric locomotive barn on the same level is not wholly finished, but with exception of few such details the mine is ready to supply the daily quota of 2,0OO tons of ore the mill will handle in the near future. Tke hoist engines, skips, and cages are running smoothly and the electric locomotives have been low cred into the mine. The ore bins have been full for several days and some of the rock was run through the crusher as early as the 14th of March. The belt conveyer carried some of the fine ore into the mill on the following day. No hitch is ap- prehended in any portion of the concentrator or mine
 Al the power plant all machinery is in place and operating with clock like regularity. The pumping plant at Burch also is satisfactory In every detail, and were it not for the neces- sity of using the 8-inch casing a few days more everything from the mine to the vacuum pumps that will dry the concentrates might be said to be in practical working order.
 INSPIRATION.
 Within a month the Inspiration will have at work a force of ap- proximately 300 men, although a few miners have been laid of for the present pending some important changes in development recently decided upon. None of the drill men have been taken from their work, and the decrease in the force of miners is temporary only. The pocket at the bottom of the Colo rado shaft is being cut and pre- parations are about concluded for cutting the station. The latter will correspond in depth with the main haulage level that intersects the Joe Bush shaft at depth of 500 feet. The collar of the Colorado shaft is higher than that of the other shaft. A two-drum hoist has just arrived in Colorado shaft immediately. The boiler for the hoist has already been erected. Four drills are now working on the property. Holes Nos. 1901 and 1908 are just started. No. 9O2, just left, showed ore in the granite, and the drill hole 800 feet south of the Colorado shaft also exposed ore in the same rock. A saw-mill and fram- ing machines are being installed near the mouth of the Joe Bush tunnel.
 It is generally supposed that when the Inspiration company makes an nouncement of it's intention to begin construction work on it's concentrator it will announce also it's intention to build a smelter. It would seem this work at present is being delayed by the Arizona Eastern railroads inde' cision to build road to the site it is said the Inspiration company has se- lected near Wheatfelds. It is known that the railroad company has suffici- ent funds, but it may be. that it will not vet build along it's surveyed line of the proposed Globe-Durango road through Wheatields.

The specimen was made by DR.. F.
L. Nail, assisted by Len Warren and
C. M. Davis. 1t was the idea sof H.
T. Pierson, who had charge of the
circus and to say it was a clever de-
ception, is putting it mildly.
The hoax was so cleverly played,
with the aid of the press, that the
town was wild to see the specimen.
More than 1000 people saw the fossil
and hundreds pronounced it as the
real thing. The fossil will be placed
on exhibition at the Elks' home as a
