TURNED OVER ID SIMS
Other Official Changes Are Being Made With Delib- eration. Shifting of Off ces in the Capitol Build ing. Historians Office is Closed.

R. B. Sims yesterday assumed his new duties as superintendent of the territorial prison. Jew new guards have been appointed. some by Captain Rynning to relieve those who expect ed to quit when the captain turned the institution over and who having made other plans were anxious to get away. There have been but few other changes thus far The job of prison guard is not one that appeals strongly to the average man who is looking for a soft snap. It is not usually an eX- citing occupation as it consists largely of walking back and forth along the wall and communing with the stars, and even when one is off duty and has few hours to himself he finds the town of Florence very much unlike Coney Island or Broadway as a place of amusement
 Speaking of official changes. Gov ernor Hunt seems inclined to do noth ing with precipitate haste. Lamar Cobb is undoubtedly named for the position of territorial engineer and Engineer Nichols, one of his assist ants is now on the job but MT. Cobb

The piratical flag of the rain rang CT Jupiter Pluvius Tapped merrily against the flagstaff over the wealth CT bureau quarters all day yesterday and caused little thrills of joy 70 run up and down the spinal columns Of all who saw the phenomenon, for it has been many long sunshiny days since that self same black flag has been brought out of cold storage.
 Etnair F.. Lanning. director in charge of the local weather section denies that he has had anything to do with the long drouth but that on the contrary he has been doing his best to move a few clouds over this way.
 Now, he says. he thinks he is in a fair way to succeed for there is a dandy rain storm lowering over Ne vada. and spreading its drops of moisture as far as the Pacific coast
 It Was raining yesterday in san Di- ego. California. which is something of a feat in itself. and the pointer was headed towards Arizona. In fact so good did the prospects seem that the forecast went forth rain Friday night or Saturday.
 The director in charge says that it is as near certainty as anything weathery can be that it will either rain or snow in the northern part of the state today and he looks for an extension of the storm to the Salt River valley
 If the weather man can deliver the rain he can have anything he wants in this neck o' the woods for there has been no appreciable rainfall since last october although there was a trace in both November and Decem- Der
 It has been an exceptionally dry season and since November 1st there has accumulated deficiency in rain fall of 3.36 inches As the normal average for the entire year is only 1S7 the deficiency already amounts to nearly half of the total. and the time for the winter rains is nearly over.
 The Roosevelt reservoir and dam has been right on the job. however. and ranchers have not suffered for sufficient water to keep their farms irrigated and to properly care for new crops. Nevertheless a good rain would be of inestimable value to the valley in giving the cultivated area a needed soaking, settling the dust upon the country roads which is so thick that driving is no longer a pleasure. while to the stockmen such a rainfall would be worth many thousands of dollars.
 The month of February produced no rain at all Not even a trace. The wettest February since the establish ment of the weather bureau station here in 1895 was in 1905 when a rec ord of 4.64 inches was established.
 The temperature for the past month was slightly above normal. but no temperature records were broken, for on February "A. 1904, the mercury registered 91 degrees. while the high est for February of this year was but @ degrees on the 17th And much colder weather has also been eXperi- enced in February of past years: the lowest was A degrees, occurring Feb ruary :, 1899. The lowest for the past month was 8 degrees on the 26th
 Two lunar halos were observed dur ing the month. They occurred on the 7th and 27th. The highest wind velocity was twenty eight miles per hours on the 18th. from the north west.

COPPER IS KING.
Do You Know That the Kelvin Mining District, Pina County, Ariz, Is Conceded to Be the Richest Mininq Field in America?

What I desire is, to call your at tention tO the property of the KEEL YIN TUNNEL SITE and MINING COMPANY, located in the heart of the above district. This company owns mountain comprising 22O- acres. Nineteen well-defined veins cross this property-east to westerly This property is being developed by a level TUNNEL, running north to south, crosscutting all veins, at a depth of 200 to 750 feet Four i'm portant veins have been cut The last vein cut is 196 feet wide all ore ore showing 3 per cent to 17 per cent copper, s to s in gold and silver, and iron over II per cent The Arizona X Eastern railroad crosses this property within 200 feet of the tunnel; also the Gila river, giving ideal facilities for transpor- tation and water Our tunnel is now in distance of 700 feet The next vein we expect to cut is believed to be the richest vein in the district. Ore has been shipped from this vein, on the east of us. showing copper ore averaging 31 per cent per ton by the car load with gold and silver values near s10 per ton. Three thou sand feet of this vein crosses our property, and is the vein we expect to cut, and we believe we can with necessary funds, cut this vein within sixty days. Therefore, we have de cided to offer a limited amount of this stock for sale, at the low price of 20 cents d share. We are firmly of the belief that when we have cut the vein above referred to that fact will advance this stock to at least Sl per share. thus making the pur- chasers 300 pr cent profit on the in- vestment

 F. A. Jones, of the corporation com mission, has not returned to the capi- tai yet to qualify for his office.
 The office of the territorial histor- ian will be closed for the time being. for a number of reasons. One is that there is no historian and another is that the office is needed as a legisla- tive committee room.
