But on Saturday evenings Jen-
nings would visit him at his cheap
lodging house on Fourteenth
street, and there, seated upon the
dingy bed, they would discuss old
times together. Van Tuysen's
hatred of Bland was profound,
his pride in his invention supreme.
1t was grief at the loss of his fac
tory that drove him deeper and
deeper into into the mire. The
old mans days seemed numbered,
and, conscious of it, and of his i'm
portance, he felt a resentment
that drove him into paroxsyms of
fury.
On Sundays Old Jennings
would call on Miss Mary Hewlett
and they would take quiet stroll
in the park together. They had
been engaged for number of
years, ..'But we can't be married
on sixty dollars a week" said Old
Jennings: And Miss Mary, who
might, perhaps, have risked the
experiment, would sigh a little
and be silent. At the door of her
boarding house Old Jennings
would kiss her goodbye.
Better times will come; they
must come, my DEAR" he would
say. And Miss Mary Hewlett
would re-echo the hope. Surely
his salary would be raised the

''Not for me" he said. I'm out

: Whats that?" cried Van Tuy-
sen, raising himself and staring
at the other incredulously.

Jennings prosaically enough.
BLAND sent for me yesterday.
Jennings, he said, I guess we'll
have to let you go. We're cut

Benefit by the Catholic Ladies

The last week the ladies Of Winslow
 under the auspices of the Alter Socie,
 ty Of the Catholic church have been
 doing some worthy charity work in the
 way of collections and an entertain
 ment that was given at the Winslow Opera House Monday evening. The
 program at the Opera House consisted of the regular motion picture show.
 which was followed by home talent concert. as follows: Selection uv the
 Boys band; Duet, Miss Ruth lesser and Master J. Drumm; ''rhe Last Hymn," Miss Ella Dadey; imitation trombone solo, Roland Showalter; Song,
 ''Tm Going to Tell Ma on You,'' Miss Ruth lesser; Metropolitan quartette Messrs. A. E. Billiard, Bert Wallace and Wlthrow Brothers; Trombone se- lection, Prof. Ellis and four boys from the Boys nd-(considered five of the best trombone players west of New York and east of San Francisco); Solo. Japanese Love Song, Miss Jessica Reed.
 The money gathered for this charity for all purposes was SIS, which was placed in the bank to be used as needed. A nurse was provided to take care of the lady who is to receive SIP a weeF, and with the amount of money the ladies have on hand, it is figured that the sick woman will get eight weeks of good care, at least.
 The ladies have even gone farther than that. Being that they have started In on their good work for charity, they were offered five per cent of the total gross receipts of the days sales of the 10th of this month of all money taken in by the Clifford J. Halpern Sales O., who have recently purchased the entire stock of Mir. Malich's Golden Rule store. Whatever money is made from this source will be used as part of the | cemetery fund or for charity
 The ladies are also making plans | or Leap Year Ball which will be given ,he 14th of February the proceeds of | "hlce will go to the cemetary fund. | More detailed information regarding he ball will be given in future issues 'f the Mail. Watch for the an nounce- nents.

GUS LEHMAN
 STRICKEN ILL

Ed Shumate yesterday received
 advlces from Fl Paso, Texas.
 that Gus Heyman was suddenly
 and seriously stricken i'll late last week with appendicitis, and
 that 1t had been determined ne cessary by several physicians to perform an operation immediate ly Tn the hope of saving his life. A sister of the afflicted man was summoned from San Francisco, and on her arrival, which was expected on Sunday morning. the operation was to take place that day. The news of the illness of his popular and well known commercial traveller will be learned of with sincere regret all over Arizona, and particularly by a host of friends residing at Prescott. -Prescot Journal Miner
 The MT. Heyman referred to in the foregoing article is well known to the business people of Winslow, he representing wholesale liquor house with Headquarters i'll San rancisco and sold goods here when Wins ow was but a small village. Late repots have it that Mir. Heyman survived the operation and seems to be out of all dangers.

Two short change artists who blew into town this week have been getting in their work ill various places to the amount of about 5000. They were
 brought before Justice of Peace F. H
 Waite who placed fine of S125. .OO for each, which they promptly paved and were released. They gave their names as Ellsworth and Hayes, and it seems from the goods that were taken from them that they were professionals at the business. There suit cases which were sophisticated contained two res volvers, masks, burglers kits, railroad ticket punches, etc. They pleaded gull ty on the charges of obtaining money under false pretences, which was rath- CT unexpected to court, who would have had rather detained them and awaited for developments. From all appearance the men seemed to be cap- able of most any dastarly deed and no doubt their movements will be closely watched.
 The dance given by the ladies of the G. l. 4. to the B. of l.. E. was another of the popular dances given during the year 9l1. The committees did all in their power to insure a good time for the crowd attending and all enjoyed themselves to their hearts content, but the receipts were not as large as was at first anticipated. Music was furn. 1shed by Prof. Ellis, Miss Stevenson, MT. Barnes of Williams, and the dark ey drummer of the Electric.

 The Bisbee district was tn largest producer, with an outpu of about 133,0OO,OOO pounds; marked decrease from the 142 oOO, 1000 pounds produced il I91O. A part of this decreas was due to the stopping of ship ment by the Shattuck-Ari mine during the later part of tn, year, Development disclcs sec om4 new and important ore bodies Tn the district. The Calu met x Arizona and Superior & Pittsburgh companies were con solidated and the new company began the construction of q new shelter.

 The Globe Miami district pro. duced about 4O,OOO,OOO pounds. compared with 27,6OO. pounds in 1910. The large in. crease IS due to the production from the Miami area. The first unit of the Miami mill started
 
 in March and successive units later, five of the SIX being in ope- ration at the close of the year. Large additions were made to the ore reserves of the district especially by the Inspiration and Live Oak companies, and impor. Fant development work was car red on by other companies. De- Velopment was also active in the Globe end of the district.
 In the Jerome district the out put ot the United Verde mine will show a slight decrease from the 3S, ,66O,O0O pounds produced in 1910. The decrease was due to difficulties with the old shelter The United Verde Co. has a new plant under construc ion.
 The Humboldt shelter of the Consolidated Arizona Copper 70. was operated till November md then closed.

The first unit of he Ray Consolidated mill was tarted i'll March, and. at the lose of the year five of the eight nits were in operation.

GOOD FIRE RECORD
 COCONINO FOREST

The Supervisor and rangers on the Coconino National For are especially pleased on the ac. count Of the excellent fire record
 o1 the past year which they COIL s1der the best in the effectiveness of the protection given of any season in recent years. During the entire year the total area burned was over 1, 4,7O1 acres or two-tenths of one precent of tine total area of the Forest. Twen-
 ty-hve hres were discovered but 25 per cent Oi them were put ont
 before they burned over one acre.
 The area of the average burn
 was 1SS acres.
 The largest fire 0! the year
 was at Doney Park, east of the
 San Francisco Mountains, and
 burned over less than 2.OOo
 acres ot which only 16O acres
 was timbered lands, the rest be.
 ing open park.
 After the bad fire season Inf
 Nineteen Hundred and Ten all
 National Forest officers bent
 the1r energies on the de vising O
 new and better methods of fire
 protection, baslng their efforts
 largely on the experience gained
 under the severset test to which
 the Forest Service has ever been subjected. It was realized that efficient fire protection could be gained only after careful prev,- ous planning to meet all possi- ble contingencies. While the favorable season helped to d considerable extent to lessen the danger of fires, the Forest off, cers are confident that a great step has been made in the direc- ton ot more complete organiza- ton of the protective work and that the promptness with which the fires of this year were dis. covered and put out is to a great extent responsible for the good showing made.
 The improvements made in the protective system were mainly along the line of better telephone communication, as well defined system of lookouts connected by telephones for the detection of hres and a wider knowledge among residents and users of the Forest of the danger and dam. age of fire and the necessity of prompt action in all cases.
 The Coconino National For est is divided into five districts. each of which is in charge of d Ranger and one or more assis- tants. The greatest protection was given to those districts where fire has occurred more trequently in the past and where on account of the topography and valuable timber standstnere was the greatest danger of ser. ous fires. Because of the topJ- ,raphy of the Forest system of lookout patrol was deemed nore effective than any system 't riding patI ol. Bakers Butte md Woody Mountain were cho- en as the primary lookouts at which men were stationed at all imes. Secondary lookout points we're established in each ranger istrict, and the fire plan p.D ided that they be visited eacll ay ny the Ranger in char ge ur IS assistant.
