at Linn's jewelry store. MT. McGarvey believes that the re- cent determination practically establishes the permanency of the property, and with the continuance of work in the shaft, feels elated over general conditions.
 Prescott Courier: At the Climax, a new pump is being installed to pump water from Hassayampa creek to the mill, a lift of about D feet. A working force of about twelve men is employed in the mine, extracting the ores of the highest grade. The greatest need of this fine property is good road to Prescott, after the construction of which it will be possible to enlarge the milling capacity and treat the lower grade ore, of which there are already many thousands of tons in sight. Such a road would also reach scores of other claims in the valley of the Hassay- ampa.
 Florence Blade: Consulting en- gineer Flint, of the Magma Copper company, was at Superior last week inspecting development work and planning for a duplication of the present mine equipment. It is probable that the present Magma shaft will be continued down from the 800 to the 1000-foot level and the vein prospected to considerable extent at that point, and if the rich ore body developed at the 500 level be found on the 1000.foo level, then a new triple-compart- ment shaft will be sunk to tap the vein at the 1900 or 400 foot level. One of the problems now confronting the company is that of transportation.
 Clifton Era; In January the Shannon company produced 7S0 tons of copper, the largest product on record by this company for single month, since the year 1907, This production was all from ore coming from the Shannon mines and was exclusive of any customs ore. The Shannon is producing now at the rate of from 9 to 28 tons per day and it is the intention of the Shannon management to increase their output for the year 1912 over that of 1911 by ap- proximately three million pounds. The Leonard Copper Company, a subsidiary company of the Shan non located in Cochise county, is now shipping 5000 tons per month to tbo Gbonnop opoalfar.

Considera- ble interest is manifested in the discovery. and it is reported that the surrounding ground is being rapidly taken up.
 Prescott Courier: Word comes that the old Yarnell mine has been acquired by the Gold Cliff Mining Company, w. E. Sharps, president, and that the property will be worked upon large scale with a new and up.to-date plant. The Yarnell has exceptionally large ore bodies, and late developments have shown the mine to be worthy of development to a point capable of handling a large tonnage,
 Clifton Era: President N. L. Amster, who was here last week inspecting the workings of the Shannon Copper Company, depart ed from the camp highly blessed with the outlook for the Shannon company for the year 1912. More extensive development work is planned for the year and ad- ditional miners are being put on at the property and preparations are being made to open up the ore bodies at greater depth than heretofore.
 Prescott Courier: Ed Block made a trip to his Christmas group of claims, last Sunday, and found his men working industri- ously at three places, with ore showing at each. The vein being developed is banded Assure 12 to 15 feet in width, is about 1900 feet from the Climax property, in the same mineral zone, and supposed to be the same vein as the later. There has recently been opened up in one of the tunnels a streak of ore about Is inches in width which is of shipping grade.
 Coconino Sun: A heavy flow of gas was struck in the Verde Val ley Oil company's we'll at Oil City, near Camp Verde, yesterday. Oil is certainty at the same point and this part of Yavapai county is experiencing intense excitement. The we'll was capped as soon as possible, but the gas which whistles through the crevices around the cap has enough force to blow newspaper fifteen feet into the air The fumes are heavy and the odor the same as that which hangs over all localities where gas deposits have been tapped.
 Prescott Journal-Miner: s. R. McGarvey, of the board of directors of the Yavapai Metals Mining com pany, arrived from the camp near Humboldt yesterday, and reported the striking of the highest grade of copper ore that has been effected since sinking the main shaft was started. This discovery was made in crosscut being run from the 250 foot level, the pay streak being about eighteen inches wide and was cut into at a point twenty feet from the starting point. The ore

West School Building Gets Praise
and Moving Picture Room
Gets OmcIaI o. X.

Chief Kearns, Deputy Inspector
Spangler and Architect Reading, OF
the Bureau of Inspection of Public
Offices, were in this city Wednesday
on tour of inspection. They visited
the new West Side school building
and spoke very highly to Fire Chief
Weisman Of its plan of construction.
A couple of minor changes for the pro-
lection of the smaller children were
ordered.
The new Odd Fellow temple on
West Market street was inspected.
Mr.. Kearns also had a talk with sever
al parties interested IN the new NOV
ing picture show to be started in the
west room of this building. From
information given out il is not likely
that the department will endeavor to
shut up the show house, as had been
rumored.
The inspectors drove to Neptune
Wednesday afternoon, where, after an
inspection of the school building in
that village, they condemned a por-
ton of the building, claiming it unsafe
because Of the condition of the founda-
ton.

Council met in regular session last
Tuesday evening with all members
present but Meyer and Mayor Miller
pI esiding.
After the usual opening routine, Mr..
Vorce of the Burroughs adding ma
chine presented proposition to sell
the town an adding machine. Matter
was referred to committee on claims.
| Fire Chief Weisman called attention
to the dilapidated stove in the Council
chamber, and gave notice that he
would not permit fire to be again
built in the stove. No action was
taken.
The committee on ordinances re-
ported, in regard to the petition for
repeal of ordinance compelling pool
rooms to close at 10 o'clock, that they
had decided that, for the best interests
of Celina and its citizens, that the Ordi-
nances should remain in full force.
The petition was thereupOn laid on
the table.
The parents of the boys of the town
and county should feel grateful for the
stand taken by council on the repeal
of the ordinance in question. Pool
rooms are a pretty inviting place for
boys and is undoubtedly the best and
most popular school for graduating
boys for the saloon extant. II brings
them in contact with saloon frequen-
ters and Obliterates the finer home SEN

loon less embarrassing and awkward.

nance, let it be on behalf of the boys
and not dollars and cents. Council
made no mistake Tuesday night.
The auditing committee reported
that they had examined the clerk IS an
uual report and had found it correct.
Mr.. Lennartz then read bids of the
Bote, Observer, Standard and Demo
ocrat for printing the report in pamph-
let form. On motion of Mr.. Schunck
the work was let to the Democrat at its
hid of S89.65, it being the lowest. The
other bids were: BOte, S95; Standard,
$92. so; Observer, $92. so.
Civil Engineer Lutz presented his
proposition to Council for furnishing
the town with six village maps for 5000,
which was accepted.
The maps are to be complete
to the minutest detail, and is some-
hing much needed. The awarding of
the contract to Mr.. Lutz means that
he work will be ably and conscien-
tiously done.
The Clerk read the report of Auditor
Morrow of the amount of money due

being the December half tax. The

/
the memory of the murdered Dr.
Goldman, Haufman's and mine, and
knowing this l saw no escape from
the conclusion that the dead man had
spoken.
At about ten o'clock that night some
one knocked at the door Of my room.
Kaufman started up from the book
that he was vainly endeavoring to
read and demanded: who is there?"
The answer came distinctly: 1T is
l, DR.. Goldman"
l believe l never saw such horror
as was depicted In the countenance
of Lieut.. Kaufman at these words.
arose from my chair and softly
leaped to the door. Turning my face
from the panels so that my voice
would seem to one outside to come
from a distance, l also demanded:
who is there?"
"It is |, DR.. Goldman"
Instantly l turned the handle and
opened the door l was confident
my visitor would not escape me.
There was no one there and the
hallway was empty.
AS l stood near the threshold,
distinctly heard some one pass me
and enter the room. wheeled around
and filed the doorway with my body
to prevent the visitors egress.
Kaufman also had heard the visitor
and stood in the center of the room
with a painful listening fear in his re-
gard.
Slowly the visitor made the circle
of the room, following closely the
four walls, but he was invisible to
our stIaining eyes-a horrible pres
ence in our midst and nothing more
Again he made the circle. We
heard his light football on the carpet
and his calm breathing.
He passed me for the second time
and again circled the room. What
was his purpose? Could it be that he
intended to circle Kaufman thus
through all the long hours of the
night? My God, would he hold Hauf-
man in that charmed circle until the
unfortunate man was dead of exhaus-
tion or fear!
Once again the unseen visitor cir
cled the room, but this time he did
not approach me as closely as before.
Was it that he was fearful of my
presence? l thought for a moment
that he was, and my courage began to
rise, then suddenly l realized the
meaning of the change.
Kaufman also understood
The murdered DR.. Goldman was
slowly narrowing the circle and ap-
preaching his murderer.
When the circle was completed
what then? Would the murdered man
stand visible, face to face with Lieut..
Kaufman, and condemn him with un-
sealed lips?
My body grew cold as ice, and l
seemed to be chained in the door
way to witness this act of retribution
devised and executed blythe dead.
Slowly the circle narrowed; inch
by inch the unseen visitor was ap-
preaching Lieut.. Kaufman. His light
footballs were like the mufled ticking
of clock that measured out the mo-
ments preceding the doom Of a man
in the chair of execution.
Then he made the last circle and
stood before Kaufman.
For moment there was no sound
each had ceased to breathe. Then,
slowly and distinctly, from the lips OF
the unseen visitor, came the words;
