Work on the Property Is on

Globe, Ariz, Dec. 1L-An enormous

IS an inclined shaft Of 80 degrees in
clnauon through which all miners and

raised from a depth OF 265 feet from
a tunnel through which the miners viii
reach the shaft The latter was ex-
tended to the surface to avoid the ex-
pensive work Of cutting a station at
the 265 foot depth large enough to
contain q hosting engine.
Virtually no sinking is being done
at Live Oak No. I, but a station is
being cut there and a shaft started to-
ward Live Oak No. , The distance
between these shafts is 200 feet
Drifting between the Joe and Scorp-

and the contractors expect to finish the
drift by the middle Of January.
Tunnel Work Finished.
Work on the Sulphide tunnel has
been finished, the tunnel now being
standardized, or enlarged to 1-2 feet
in the clear. Many Of the sharp curves
in the tunnel also have been minimized
by the recent work. its present trend

SAYS MINING TAXES
WILL NOT BE RAISED
Governor Abram Gonzales Denies That
the Government COntemDlafes Put
ting Burden on Mines.

Chihuahua, Mexico, Dec. 11.-Reports
relative to an increase in mining taxes
for this city, having their foundation,
no doubt, from the large increase in
customs duties lately enacted as a
law by the federal government, were
in circulation all week among the min
ing and mill men. Governor AbTam
Gonzales in statement relative to
this says:
so far as I know the government
contemplates making no radical change
in the present system of mine tax
alton and what is more I do not be-
heye that such a step would be taken
seriously by the national congress
were it to be brought to it's atten-
ton. The present tariffs seem suf-
ucient IN view Of the fact that the
government receives a large income
from this source The government has
every desire to promote and encour-
age the mining industry, which is yet
in its infancy, and the mining men
may rest assured that anything that
IS done in this respect will be for their
benefit, Notwithstanding all reports to
the contrary"

schistose formation similar to that
of the Gibson mine and its ore also
resembles that Of the latter, being
mostly chalcopyrite with a small per-
centage Of chalcCcite. Because of the

At the South Live Oak, hole No. 5
has been started and is now about

feet west of hole No. 8 in which 65
feet of 2 percent ore was reported. AS
the formation Of hole No. is iden-
teal with that of hole No. it IS
thought that the continuation of the
ore body may be proved by the re-
suit of the last holes drilling.

JOE TINKER, CUB SHORTSTOP.
 IS g YEARS OLD TO-DAY

Opinions differ as to who is the greatest shortstop of the last decade, but if ballot should be taken there is no doubt that Joe Tinker the great shortstop of the Chicago Cubs, would get no small proportion of the votes Tinker is one of the veterans Of the great aggregation that for several years kept the Chicago club up among the leaders in the National League, For ten years he has been shortstop- ping for the Windy City team. There are those who say that he is not the mighty Joe of yore, and statistics seem to prove it, but he has yet a good way back to go before the bushes get him. Joseph Bert Tinker. to give him his complete legal monaker, is a native of the Sunflower State and commenced his baseball career in the Jayhawker State.

New York, July 27.-when the family servants of Nicholas J.

 Mrs. McNamara, her two sons Chester and Wilbur, aged 12 and 10 years, declare that Perkins, her housekeeper; Frederick H. Paterson. her chauffeur, and Patrick Walsh, her valet, registered at the Hotel Knickerbocker, where they were found by detectives.

It was learned from San Francisco that McNamara was able to trace the. party by the description of the automobile in which they left San Mateo and by sight drafts which Mrs. McNamara drew on her husband at various cities where they stopped.
 Leaving no explanation, Mrs. Mo Namara and her sons disappeared from San Mateo June 22.

DANNY MURPHY
 IN NORWICH
Expects to Return to Game
 By Middle of August

Norwich July 27.-Captain Danny Murphy of Connie Mack's Philadel- phia worlds champions and his charming wife arrived at their win ter home on the west side for week end visit.
 Murphy has not played ball since he was injured eight weeks ago in trying to score in a game at the Windy City. "Murp" has been under the care of noted specialist in Ph1la- delp11ia and was given lots of time by Manager Mack to get his lame pedal in shape to play. This week, before coming to Norwich, he indulged in morning practice at Shibe Park. When he stood up to the plate he found that his injured left knee could not yet stand the strain to brace him. self to line 'em out.
 Manager Mack told Murphy to stay at home while the team was on it's present western trip and have his leg placed in plaster cast which treat ment both are confident will produce results Murphy is longing to get back in the game. While he is not cheese, he has felt that several games that the Mackites have lost this month might have been won by his pinch hitting. Murphy expects to get back into the game about August 14, when Lajoie's Clevelands strike town.
 Murphy shows very little of his trouble, diagnosed as water on the knee. He has no trouble in walking, only when bracing himself on his in jured leg, which seems to lose strength Murphy has been the center of sev- eral flaming bees at Madden's smoke shop and Denny Hayes Dell-Hoff bam mbazine, but says the Boston Red Sox look the goods at this writing.
