EASTERN VISITOR CHARMED WITH
 PRESCOTT
From Saturdays pailyl

Col. E. P. Thayer, who has ire quently visited this city during the past few months, in looking over land and mining possibilities, along Lower Lynx Creek, left yesterday for New York City, and will return at a later date. While he would not give publicity to the outcome of ne- gotiations under way for several months, he spoke very favorably of the country, its splendid land induce ments and its attractive mineral pos abilities.
 Col. Thayer was with D. M. Parry for several days, looking over pros Ieetive interests, and also accom- panied ex-Congressman Watson of Indiana, several weeks ago, on a similar mission. MT. Parry is at the Grand Canyon on his way home to Indianapolis, and will be joined to- day by Col. Thayer on the eastward journey, and a general consultation of the interested investors will take place in a few weeks, when definite results will be announced.
 MT. Parry is one of the wealthy manufacturers of the East, and stated that his visit to Arizona wal not alone instructive of the inviting industrial resources, but the induce ments for the investment of capital were convincing and attractive. He spoke in a happy mood of this, his first visit to Arizona, and was charmed with the modern build of this city and with its scenic sur roundings, which, he says, is one of the agreeable surprises of the West ern journey.

VISITOR PLEASED WITH
 YAvAPAI CONDITIONS (From Thursdays Daily.)

D. M. Parry, for many years presi- dent of the National Manufacturers Association of the United States, who accompanied Col. E. P. Thayer from Indianapolis, Ind, left yester- day for his home in the East, after a trip to Southern Arizona to look over the industrial conditions in the Salt River valley, and to inspect the gigantic Roosevelt dam. He express ed himself as surprised with what is in evidence in this country, and was especially pleased with Yavapai coun- ty and its attractive land and min ing possibilities. He devoted several days to inspecting mining interests along Lynx Creek, in a placer pro- ject, and to which is to be asso- eiated a large land reclamation un- dertaking. He will visit the Grand Canyon for few days, and antiei- Pates returning soon to this section. His visit has been one of agreeable surprises, he said, and the country is a revelation.

NOTED PHYSICIAN IS
 CLAIMED BY DEATH
Doctor I. B. Davis Expires at Mercy Hospital From Peritonitis After
 An Illness of Four Days

told of the famous pursuit of Geron- imo by Crawford into the rugged fastnesses of the Sierra Madre Noun tains. his zeal and ardor was fit tingly proven when he advised the few American officers to disregard the treacherous white flag of the enemy and avenge the eowardly death of the American commander.
 After the Geronimo campaign, pr. Davis was ordered to Fort Whipple and other posts in the northern part of the Territory, serving in the Medical Corps until an order of the War Department swept him and many other civilian physicians in the service out of the army. This was in 1889, and at the time Dr. Davis was serving at Fort Whipple.
 After leaving the army he spent few years practicing throughout Arizona, returning to Prescott later, where he followed his profession un- til stricken last week.
 The deceased came of a famed military family of the nation. His brother, Major General Jeff c. Davis, served in the Union army through the Civil War, and ranked as one of the most sagacious and daring of ficers the North had on the firing line. Another brother, Captain William Davis. until about ten years ago, was stationed at Camp Apache, Arizona, in command of that post, when the 10th Cavalry occupied it. Dr. Davis was born near Jefferson vile, Ind, sixty-three years ago, and it is believed several members of his family are surviving on the old farm, which is historically known. He commenced his military career by entering Taylor Barracks, near Louisville, Ky, as a medical cadet, in 1864, serving until after the Civil War, when he graduated from the Louisville Medical College. With that training, he entered the army as contract surgeon, and when the contract service was annulled by the War Department, Dr. Davis was the oldest physician in the service.
 He was offered recognition in the regular arhy in after years, but re- fused a rank which he often said was lily due his long and devoted service.
 Throughout the West are many men who will be grieved to learn of this good mans death, and sorrow will be universally felt when the sad news is learned
 pr. Davis was the third Exalted Ruler of Prescott Lodge. No. 330, Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, and a charter and life mem- ber The funeral will be held un- der the auspices of the order. Ar engagements will be announced later

 H. c. Storey, Exalted Ruler of the local lodge, was present, and replied to a toast in a happy vein.
 Charles Shower and Harry Harter, who handled their parts in the most clever manner, were also present, and delighted the players with their re- marks. Mir. Shower is one of the best actors ever seen here in a local tai ent play, and made a great hit with the audiences. His clever handling of the part assigned to him was one of the features of the great success of "Charley's Aunt" Not a bit be- hind him was MT.

DEVELOPMENT PROVING
 LARGE ORE BODY
CFrom Thursdays Dailyl


 Latest reports from the United Verde Extension property say that the first ore body encountered in the main drift on the 800 foot level has been drifted in for upwards of 100 feet, and two crosscuts, 95 feet apart, have been driven north to- ward the hanging wall. Both cross cuts have been in ore the entire distance, No. l having been driven II feet and No. distance of B feet. This ore is of the same char aeter as that of the United Verde and carries copper, gold and silver, assaying from ? to per cent cop per and $1 to s in gold and silver.
 On the hanging wall side of the ore body a raise has been run for about 100 feet and erosscut which has been run for a distance of 20 feet at this point to determine the width of the ore body, shows a grade of commercial ore having a copper content of about 4 per cent. This raise is in ore for it's entire length, and shows copper averaging from l to 6 per cent with gold values of from $50 to $5 per ton.
 Considerable copper in a leaehed form has been encountered in follow ing an ore body about 200 feet east of No. l ore body, together with good gold values. A crosseut is now being driven southeast to cut the footwall, as it is believed that ore exists in this direction, and eonsid- crable water which is being met with presumably comes from the vein. De- velopment will be pushed in this part of the mine, as it is believed that satisfactory results can be obtained in a short time.

T
 It will be learned with the deep est sorrow that Dr. T. B. Davis, one of the best known physicians in Ari- zena, and a worthy citizen, has passed to the unknown, his sad death taking place last night at the Mercy hospital, about s o'clock, after an illness of less than four days. The announcement of his demise came as a shock to all, and was due to peri fonitis.
 With his characteristic tempera- ment to not burden his friends with any personal consideration over his illness, he remained alone in his of flee, administering to his afflietion, and when removed to the hospital, the disease had reached such a stage that it baffled the skill of his pro- fessional associates. All that the combined ability of the medical fra ternity could do proved fruitless, and he passed away unconscious of the end.
 It may be truthfully said of this famed physician that he was man of exceptional personality, and aside from his recognized ability in medi- cal circles, was one of the striking military men of the day when he served his country so willingly and eOurageously.
 From the Staked Plains of Texas to the Bad Lands of the Dakotas, tbis officer participated in all the Indian wars from 1868 to 1880. He was with Terry and Miles in the north and with Ord and Shafter in the south. From the Platte and the Rio Grande he was called to Ari. zona, in 1883, and in the long year. that followed was with Crook, served under LawtOn, was stationed at every post from Mohave to San Carlos and bid farewell to Crawford in the Sierra Madres of Mexico, when that valiant captain met his death at the hands of Geronimo, in 1887. In all the years he was associated with the army, it is said of him that his courage was a splendid exemplifiea- tion of his sworn duty, and combined with which was a tender and sym- pathetic fellowship extended toward those who were wounded in the many fights he witnessed and in which he was a participant. He was blessed with reverent regard among the men on the line, and the late Gen. eral Shafter, in reeounting a fight with the Comanehes on the Staked Plains of Texas, chased him as the Fighting Doctor" of the depart ment

RICH SUIPHDEs
 UNCOVERED IN GERMANIA
CFrom Wednesday'. DailY.N


 Henry Barkschat, general manager of the Germania Mines company, near Walker, while in the city yes terday, stated that development was progressing satisfactorily on the property, the main shaft reaching a depth of 6S feet. A body of fine sulphide ore had been cut and it was his belief that the creation of another good gold mine in that dls- triet was practically established.
 In sinking the new shaft the lines of the old one were followed for a considerable distance and in the work a parallel vein was encountered which gave the splendid results. The camp is equipped with good accom- mOdations for men, while hoisting facilities are adequate for reaching great depth.
 The Germania is one of the new companies that has entered that field, and in its limited shaft work has solved a very important mineral problem, the character of the ores slowing that they belong to the same family as the Mudhole and other properties at Walker that are at tracing so mucn interest in mining circles at the present time
 MT. Barkschat will return to his camp today with supplies, and states that as soon as ground is open the force will be increased and work rushed with all possible speed.
