The Stebbins family and most Of
the town stayed up all night search
ing. Then the next morning a note
that explained everything came from
Uncle Horace.
IT went away to get married." he
wrote in his Grabbed hand. II have

with a most estimable widow of forty

me in my old age. She has four chill

you soon, for I know you will be as
fond of Sally and the children as you
are of me-"
They revived Mrs. Stebbins three
times before she quit fainting. Then
she remembered that Mrs. Cromp was
Lit just as hard as she was and that
made her feel better.

SEN. CLARK BUYS MINES
 IN PATAGONIA DISTRICT.

A Patagonia, Arizona dispatch Of Nov. 1th says: D. Hogan,one of Sen. w. A. Clark's most trusted mining Superintendents, arrived in Patagonia last Thursday, accompanied by ten white miners and immediately left for Harshaw where Clark has taken over the Farrel property, known as the Trench group of copper mines. It is understood that the Trench mines were bonded by Senator Clark when in Butte some time ago and already a part of the price has been paid down to the present owners. The considera- tion is $250,00O, and the bond is to run two years. MT. Hogan brought ten picked men with him as he wants to do a large amount of development work on the property, and has given out the information that within a month he expects to have 30 or more miners at work on the property. The Trench is a mine with a good record having in past years produced some thing like a quarter of a million dol lars worth of silver and copper ores, but has not been worked in late years on account of the owners not being able to handle the property single handed. Now that a large company has taken it over the future looks promising for this great property. The ground adjoins the Worlds Fair and
 will make a good mine for the Clark smelter at Jerome, which needs badly the class of ore found in the Trench.

Leaves for Campo Bonito Where He
 Will Attend Quail Dinner.

Colonel William F. Cody arrived in Tucson last Thursday night from Den yer, and left the same afternoon for Campo Bonito, where he will inspect the property of the Cody-Dyer Mining company, in which he is interested.
 Colonel Cody, upon his arrival, said, q am glad to get back to Arizona and especially Tucson, where shall spend the greater part of the winter"
 The Colonel is still hale and hearty and enjoying the best of health. He said that he had been with his show during the past summer, and that the rest of the 'eWild Vest aggregation was now in winter quarte rs at Tren- ton, N. J. At the close of the season the colonel visited Cody, Wyoming, and North Platte, Nebraska, where he has interests.
 Upon his arrival he was met by J . H. Tait, who has charge of the mines at Bonito and who has been with the wild west show for the past twenty years. Tait stated last night that up on the arrival of the colonel at the ranch today a big reception would Dc held. Johnny Baker, the expert marks man, who was formerly with the show and while standing on his heat shot glass balls, will be the host at quail dinner Baker still continues t' follow out his old custom, even whel hunting, and the quail to be serve' at this dinner have all been sho in this manner.

MAKE E[ONG JOURNEY ALL WITHOUT AVAIL
8isbee Montenegrans Reach Home and Find Services Are Not
 Required.

The Bisbee Montenegrans who left Bisbee, marching down Brewery gulch to martial music, were refused the privilege of fighting for their na- tive land, according to Servian newspaper, portions of which were translated for the Review.
 Eight hundred of these patriotic Montenegrans who left America and returned to their native land to take up the fight against Turkey were turned down when they arrived at the Montenegran capitol and told that they could not be accepted, as the government already had as many men Tn the field as the country could sup port.
 According to the Servian newspap- CT the Bisbee Montenegrans were warmly thanked for their patriotism. It is probable that many of them will return to Bisbee.
 Since the party of fighting men left Bisbee there have been all kinds of romantic stories of heroic deaths of Bisbee Montenegrans on Balkan battlefieldS.

THREE GENT FARE
 CASE POSTPONED
Case ShuoId Have Been Tried Before
 Judge Cooper Yesterday.

By the agreement of both sides, yesterday the defendants in the three cent fare case did not appear, and the case is indefinitely postponed. The plaintiff is the Arizona Eastern railroad, and the defendants are the attorney general, the corporation com mission of the state of Arizona, and the different county attorneys.
 A complaint was filed by the Ariz- ona Eastern in the Superior Court late last week, asking that a tempor- ary injunction be granted them in re- gard to the three cent fare. They further asked that the defendants in the case be ordered by the court to appear on December 4, and show cause why this temporary injunction should not be granted.
 The complaint was signed by Judge Cooper, and it was supposed that the case would come before the court yesterday. Both sides agreed to postpone it. The time of the hear ing has not been set.

ASSUMING WORK ON
 GREAT DAM
Richardson Construction Company Will Complete Enterprise in the
 Yaqui Valley.

DOUGLAS, .Ariz-Believing that the revolutionary troubles in Mexico, and especially in Sonora, are rapidly con- ing to a close, the Richardson Con- struction company, which put on foot the project for the irrigation of thous- ands of acres of fertile land in the Yaqui River Valley, is now preparing to resume operations, after lapse of eighteen months, according to John Davidson, a commission merchant and real estate man, with headquarters in Guaymas, now in this city.
 The first work which will be started is that of the diversion dam located at Los Limones. Approximately $75O,OO0 will be spent on this dam, which is only the beginning of the great work Diamond drillers have already arrived in order to drill for the bottom on which the foundations will be laid. LaborerS are being employed as rapid ly as they apply, the greatest obstacle now being in the scarcity of labor.
 The main dam for the impoundins of the waters of the Yaqui river will be located at Suaqui de Batuc, near Esperanza The original location of the big dam was at La Angostura, a | few miles of the Fl Tigre crossing, which would have backed up the river water for a distance of about thirty miles. The site, it is understood, has been abandoned.
 The work now being commenced Is more in the nature of making prepar ations for the carrying on of the great project, as soon as the company is assured of not being further molested through civil strife in the republic tc the south.
 The completion of the dam will be one of the greatest boons to the min ing men of Sonora, who will be able to secure sufficient power from the con templated electric plants to operate their mines without heavy eXpendl ture for fuel. The companies located in the Nacozari district and to the
 South are anxiously awaiting woro of them, will be enabled to more thai double their output as soon as cheal
 power is at their command.

CANvASSING BOARD
 COUNTING VOTES
All Referendum Measures Except 3 Cent Fare Wifi Soon Be in Force.

PHOENIX, Dec. 4-For the purpose of canvassing the votes canvassed in the election of November 5th, Gov George w. w. Hunt, Secretary of State Sidney P. Osborn and Chief Justice Alfred Franklin met this afternoon at o'clock in the office of the secretary
 The work of canvassing the votes for presidential electors and congress man is proceeding rapidly and prob ably will be completed this afternoon. The results will then be communicated to the secretary of state of the United States.
 In all probability the votes on con- Stitutional amendments and referred bills will not b ecanvassed for two or three days. The law says that they shall be canvassed 30 days after the election, so the board has two or three days to spare.
 Soon after the votes on amendments and measures are canvassed the gov ernor will issue his procla. ficn of result. With the exception Wof the Scent fare law, which the railroads are fighting through the courts and corporation commission they will then go into effect.
 It is not expected that the official canvass will make any change in the results from those announced.

BLACK PUG|L|ST IS
 NOW MARRIED
Jack Johnson Marries Girl Who is the Basis of Criminal Charge Against Him
 For White Slavery.

CHICAGO, Dec. Slack Johnson, the negro pugilist, was married this afternoon to Miss Lucille Cameron, nineteen years old, a Minneapolis girl, who recently returned indict- ments charging him with violations of the Mann act.
 The ceremony was performed at the home of Johnson's aged mother, on the south side, by H. A. Roberts, a negro preacher, in the presence of a few persons, including several news paper reporters.
 The girl wore a tailor-made gray suit of shepherd plaid and a large black picture hat ornamented with purple plumes. Johnson had a suit of the same material especially made for the occasion.
 A curious crowd of nearly a thou sand men and women gathered out side the house and a squad of police was kept busy maintaining order.
 The plan of having a moving pie ture film made of the wedding was ceremony, for which Johnson was of fered $5,000 was abandoned at the last moment because chief of police Me Wheeney prohibited it.
 A woman newspaper writer was or dered from the house before the cere- mony because she offended Johnson by asking too many questions.
 After the wedding an elaborate chicken dinner was served to the guests. A large wedding cake and numerous floral pieces were the features of the table decorations.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
STEEL MOST ACTIVE.
Corporations Quarterly Statement Re.
 suits in Good Buying"

New York, July 31.-Early dealings in stocks today indicated a degree of indifference, followed later by a gen. eral hardening of prices. To what eX- tent the statement of the United States Steel corporation was responsible for the movement must remain a matter of conjecture, but Steel shares were again the most active feature, with evidence of what Is technicalliy called good buying"
 Only in a comparative sense, how ever, can the Steel report for the sec ond quarter of the year be regarded favorable. The common dividend barely was earned and there still re- mains a large deficit to be overcome in the remaining six months. Adyices from authoritative sources respecting the steel industry remain highly en- couraging, embracing not only addi- tional price advances, but further proof of unappeased demand, to the extent that premiums continue to be offered for quick deliveries.
 The list moved upward as the ses- sion progressed. but gains were most marked in specfalties. A notable ex- ception was Canadian Pacific. which established @ record price, accompa- nied by the usual rumors of an "extra'' dividend or rights" More likely the new high record resulted chiefly from remarkable June earnings reported by the road. Shares of Minneapolis, st. Paul and Sault Ste Marie, controlled by Canadian Pacific, also registered a substantial advance.
 Hill issues, St. Paul and Union Pa cif1c, again responded to optimistic crop news, with better tone to the coalers, while Biscuit and Tobacco led the specialties, with some prominence in Bethlehem Steel preferred. These bids were light, but more than double that of the preceding day, one of the dullest of the year.
 Bonds were irregular, with triffing changes. Total sales, par value, amounted to $1,92S,000.
 United States government, bonds were unchanged on call.
