Tigre company that the company will
resume operations at its property in
the Tigre district in Sonora. Mexico, in
April, and preparations are being made
to begin operations at that time after

time TO place the property upon a pay
ing basis. Mill, cyanide plant aerial
tramway, air compressor, etc, will be
installed. Power will be secured from
the electric transmission line between
the Copper Queen smelter at Douglas,
AriZ., and the Tigre mine which passes
at a point one mile distant from the
North Tigre.
The South Tigre interests have be-
come interested in the Roy mine which
is located in that district and are
planning some important work which
will be.begun in the near future.

las, Ariz., has shipped a car Of silver
ore recently to the Douglas snelter.

WILL URGE THAT
ROADS BE OPENED
Mine Operators in Chihua-
hua Want Transportation
Facilities Resumed

The interruption of railroad and the
interference with the distribution Of
supplies to the mountain regions Of
Chihuahua and Sonora resulting from
the continued political disturbances is
seriously affecting mining companies.
Practically no freight has been moved
over the railroad west from Chihuahua
since December, and the traffic on the
Mexico North Western has been only
operated Internationally for nearly as
long time. These two roads serve all
the important camps of the Sierra
Madre region of chihuahua. Some sup
plies have been taken in from the west
by way of Alamos and points on the
Yaqui river railroad. and several bull
lion shipments have been made through
the western outlets.
The situation is of growing serious
ness to the operators, and plans are
forming to petition both the govern
ment and the insurrectionists to per-
NIT the restoration OF transportation
in the interests of the mining COM
panies and of the large Mexican popu-
lation in the mining region who are di-
rectly and solely dependent on their
wages from the mines for subsistence.
At the present it may be said that two
thirds Of the mining area of Chihuahua
and about one-third of Sonora is cut
off from the usual transportation ia
cilities by reason of the decentralization
OF railroad traffic ard the suspension of
the customary mountain transport by
mule and burro pack trains.
A large amount of freight is tied up
at Ell Paso intended for shipment south
over the National lines which have
been Interrupted between Chihuahua
and the north for several weeks.

THE ANIMAL CIRCUS
AMUSES MANY

The children of the city were out in
force Tuesday from early morning in
order to watch the operation of unload
parents would allow, listening for the
last roar of the lion. Old folks, too,
are fond of circuses, as was evidenced
by the audiences. Companies of more
than dozen in some cases came to
show little cousin the animal show.
With the exception of its clowns, the
Barnes show is meritorious one and
highly interesting. Their mirth-
makers seemed to be dormant. They
didn't crack a single joke while the
show was here from which one could
get good hearty laugh. A bunch of
stake drivers with spangles and paint
ed faces might have done better.
However, when it came to the
animals and their feats, every other
act was thriller as the speiler loudly
announced. When a girl gets in steel
picketed enclosure and begins to crack
anwhip in the faces of bunch of lions
and they occasionally snarl and smack
back with big paw-even though
they may be trained to do so-the on
locker who is unused to such sights
gets little coolness around the spine.
The circus Tuesday had score or
more of tigers, lions and leopards.
The climax of their performances was
reached when big lioness mounted
pony and rode at great speed around
the ring. The bears, the clowns of the
animals, were very amusing, especially
the cubs, when fed bottles of sweeten-
ed water.

that the maximum crop of apples was
obtained in 1896. 1t must be admitted
that the planting in the Northwest is
perhaps more extensive than in any
other section of the country at the
present time, but it is not generally
known that only a moderate percent
age of the present setting in the
Northwest will make commercial or
chards. Past experiences prove this
knowledge of present conditions justi
fies this prophecy.
1t is seldom that two bumper crops
follow in two consecutive years. 1t
would not be surprising to see higher
prices prevail for fruit during 1911
than 1910. There are five. reasons for
the prophecy of better prices:
l. 1t is seldom that two bumper
crops follow in two consecutive years,
and therefore the crop in 1911 will
probably be lighter than in 1910.
2. 1t is a well-known fact that
every fruit district in the Northwest
has established connections during 1910
that will tend to wider distribution.
3. The associations certainly have
a far better understanding of how to
market the fruit this year than they
have ever had in any previous year.
4. The grower will produce Pa crop
of medium sized fruit which will suit
the trade better and consequently
command better prices.
5. 1t is generally conceded that
financial conditions will improve, and
it is already said by Eastern capital
lists that money is easing up, political
disturbances and insurgency are mod
Grating, and general feeling of har-
mony toward better times is evident.

memory her activity and helpfulness in
the cause of Temperance during the
strenuous year of 1907, when as
County Superintendent of the Evangel-
istc Department of the W. c. T. L.
and also County Organizer, she visited
several localities and gave addresses.
One of the results of ner labor was
the organization of the Union at Pine
Grove which is still in existence. My
first acquaintance with Mrs. Rigby
was in 1905. A silver medal contest
was held at the Congregational church
in Hood River. The church was filling
up rapidly and her activity in securing
seats for number of boys who came
in quite late drew our special attention
and with other similar qualities
strengthened my desire to know her
better. Mrs. Rigby was rare woman
endowed naturally with good judgment
and principle which has left its i'm
press on those who knew her best and
loved her.
In our pilgrimage through this world
the greatest blessings that may come
to us is born of that spirit of Divine
Graciousness which is eminently ac-
ceptable in every avenue of life carry
ing with it power that will endure
throughout all eternity.

but the most interesting performance
offered was that of the trained seals.
The performance demonstrated the
intelligence of the uncouth animals and
the ease with which they are said to be
trained. Two of them were used in
the performance, and one of them did
everything from playing a banjo and
attempting to sing to balancing a small
bed on the tip of his nose, at the close
of which the other would turn on his
back and loudly applaud by clapping

seal ended their number by riding a
