SANTA CRUZ COUNTY BOOMING

It is estimated that at least 100 mining properties are being operated in Santa Cruz County, chiefly in the Patagonia and Gro Blanco districts. There is much life in the Patagonia Tyndan and WrIghtson districts. Many new claims are being worked, and old ones long idle are being re- lived.

There are various rumors af1oat as to a change of ownership of the Ini- perial company's Tombstone and Silverbell mines, and the Sasco shelter, the latter situated at Sasco, Pinal county. The Tombstone papers report that the LewishOnhs will prob ably take over the properties and that Tucson papers state that the Ameii- can Shelter and Refining company is negotiating for the property. Either of these companies is strong enough, financially, to buy the property in question and meet the large expendi- ture that will be required to place it on paying basis.

On last Sunday there was quite smash-up between ore trains in the railroad yards at Ray junction.

WORK IS OUR BEST BLESSING

SO much is said about labor being
a cruel hardship and curse, and Sc
many rOsea,e prophecies are made
concerning happy time when al
men may be free from the thraldom
that some foolish people are apt t.
be deceived regarding the part which
labor has always played, and ever
must play, in turning dead clay into
virile manhood
l, is not at all true that labor is a
curse.
1t is the best blessing that man
kind has.
1t is the essential element that has
developed us from savagery and is
passing us on up toward divinity.
Countless volumes of silly non
sense have been and are being writ
ten about pain and degradation OF
labor enforced upon man by nature.
But the man does not live who has
not been made better in mind and
body and spirit by his work
II is work that develOpes indiyidu-
al character and civilizes the world.
1t tempers the brain, broadens the
views and sympathies and gives tone
and force to aspirations just as truly
as it strengthens the nerves and
hardens the muscles.
The man who won't work can
live. He exists in a way, but whcr
God said to him neither shalt thou
eat" He took away his appetite.
That man may stuff food into his
stomach, but he cannot eat; the zest
is wanting. He may see the beauti-
full things in the world with his eyes.
but not with his heart. He is blind
in the midst of a bower of beauty and
deaf in the presence Of a dream of
music. He goes through life with
the perception of its joys and mean
ing undeveloped.
If work ever degrades or kills, it is
mighty seldom. Fear of it probably
kills more than the work itself
The want of it has killed many more
than either The need Of II To keen
mind and body in order has debascd
more than all the rest combined.
Drudgery may kill. Overwork
may kill. But wholesome work
that has the heart in ii is the best
tonic that there is and the hest bles-
sing the world he's ever known.

MONSTER BANQUETS.

At the wedding feast OF Richard,
brother of Henry III, there were no
fewer than 80 900 dishes, and scarce
~ less imposing must have been the
banquet given on the occasion of
the enforcement of Archbishop Ne
vile in the fifteenth century, for
mention is made, among other CO.
nlestiblcs. of 5000 dishes OF jelly.
1000 hot custards, 400 swans. 6 wild
bulls and 100 pigs. At the noted
feasts of the gay and hospitable
Prince Hal favorite dish was what
the "epicurean cooks called pom
dCrrage." 1t was savOry tumble of
partridge, pork and the yolks Of
boiled eggs first and afterwards
rolled in batter. B ut the most hos
ri'able entertainer on record was
surely Richard H. Ten thousand of
his subjects were daily bid to the
banquet. In order to cater ade-
quately for such a vast assembly OF
guests never were there less than
~ oxen supplied. 800 sheep. besides

N0TI0N PICTURES IN SCHOOLS.

Mr.. Thomas A. Edison thinks tina
if some of the public schools would
eliminate a fad here and there ant
substitute motion pictures illustrat
ing lessons in geography or aStrOnO
myOr one or several of the other stud.
les that will lend themselves to mo-
ton picture illustration, there would
be much advantage to the children
Mr.. Edison calls attention to the fact
that in certain of the French schools
moving picture machines have been
installed. The lecturer or instruc-
tor fits the narrative to the pictures
and the children are held fascinated.
What to them might otherwise have
been the dullest sort of lesson about
Ceylon Of Bombay becomes Of direc.
interest when the children sec the
turbaned natives moving around and
the elephants working at loading
ships or rolling baby carriages
A writer in Literary Digest, how
ever, is not sure but the tendency is
towards making school work Ito
easy" That the motion pictures
have educational value is so OBJ
,iOus that the writer in the Digest
thinks it not worth while to discuss
that phase of the question. But the
point is raised that certain amount
Of mental effort OF digging is nee
essary on the part of the child who is
to have fair mental development.
The cinematograph enables the pu-
pill 10 follow the unfolding of a bud
into perfect flower, or to see the
construction of a house or the load
ing of a ship. But are the impress
siOns as lasting as would be made by
those impaired by the old process or
oral instruction after studying the
print?
In the Paris schools the illustrated
lectures are timed to run for about
twenty minutes. They cover a wide
range of subjects. One day the chill
drcn are taken on a journey to some
far part of the world; next day they
are shown the interior of factory,
or shipyard, and again they are
given pictures and a lecture on
plants. It is said that there is far
less of truancy in the schools since
the pictures were put in than there
was before. II seems that the chill
drcn are eager for the entertainment
and at the same time catch quickly
the trend Of the story that is being
illustrated. Dr. Brockert, who has
charge of the moving pictures in the
Paris schools. is firmly convinced
that they will prove of great advan-
tage, especially in aiding children
who are not quite SO bright in their
studies as other children. A dull
child. he says, will catch an idea
from a picture that a text book would
fail to convey for a long time, if ever
at all. lie says that a demonstra-
film ought not to run more than If
teen or twenty minutes at longest,
and says that the teacher should be
talking all the time about the sub
jcct shown. What would the school
masters of fifty years ago have
thought Of that method of imparting
knowledgc?- Savannah News.

DEATH OF REV. JAMES
BANNISTER IN PEORIA

Our readers will be interested TO
left Durango last Thursday for Pc
oria, ILL.,, on account Of the serious
illness Of her father, Rev. James Ban
mister, reached her destination before
the end.
Mr.. and Mrs. Perkins arrived in
Peoria last Thursday, Rev. Mr.. Ban.
mister passing away peacefully the
following Tuesday night. Durango
friends will be glad that his daughter
had the comfort Of being with her
father during his last hours on earth.
During these first sad days after the
consignment of the beloved parent TO
mother earth, her friends remind Mrs.
Perkins of the words of Holy Writ,
"Mark the upright man for
the end of that man is peace"
We would not, if we could, disturb
the peace of those we have loved and
lost, by any selfish sorrow. Rather
would we reoice in the example they
have left us of fearless living and a
no less courageous dying, when the
time comes for US TO pass through
the valley Of the shadow. To live
well, to live even the best we know,
demands at times, courage of the
highest order, and greatly we need
the inspiration that the lives of 9th
ers, nobly lived, will give US.

a schoolroom, where each has definite
lessons to learn. When we see long
life draw to its close with its tasks

death Of the righteous and let my last
end be like hisw

red in the cemetery at Peoria. Mr..

WEST INDIAN NEGRO MUIR
DERER TO DIE IN CHAIR

NEW YORK, March 9.-Condemned
to die for one of the most fiendish
murders committed in this city in re
cent years, Joseph Roberts, West
Indian negro, will pay the extreme
penalty of the law in the electric chair
at Sing Sing prison next Monday.
Roberts was convicted Of the murder
of Isaac s. Vogel, an aged and very
wealthy dealer in diamonds and jew
elry, whose body was discovered in a
loft building in Canal street early last
December. Roberts was the elevator
conductor in the building. The ne
gro is supposed to have committed the
murder for the purpose of robbery, as
Mr.. Vogel carried much jewelry about
his person. After beating the aged
man to death the negro made an in
effectual attempt to burn the body
of his victim in the furnace. The
crime was fixed upon Roberts when
the police discovered the negro's
bloody finger prints upon a silver Gig
arctic case which belonged to the
murdered man.
