Mrs. Edna Steen was up this week from Yucca, attending to businesss af- fairs. She reports that mining and other matters look bright in and around that place and views the possi- bility of railroad to connect with the Swansea road as one of the develop. ments of the near future. Consider. able mining machinery is being haul ed out from the station and it will be but a short time until bullion ship ments as we'll as ores and concentrates will be hauled in and shipped to mint and smelters.

It is to be noticed that at last lead has felt the upward trend of the metal market and is going slowly toward the five cent mark. Zinc has the market grabbed and the price is higher than it has been for many long years. With the present price steady some of the zinc mines of this county should reap a big reward, especially the Golconda, which has large reserves of this metal in sight.

Eugene w. Chain, who was the nominee of the prohibitlonists at the last election for congress, has Just been nominated by the same party for president. Chain has been in the prohibition limelight in this state many years and has well earned the recogni- tion of the party in the nation. While it is not possible that he will get the electoral vote of Arizona, many of his friends will try to get him a compli- mentary vote in the larger counties.

Ohio Copper Stock
 holders Assessed.

Ohio Copper Co. shareholders will now be compelled to put up IS per l share to pay the assessment recently called for on their stock in the reor- ganization plan attempted by the com pany, or else have to sacrifice their holdings for the present prevailing market for these shares. In business channels in this city there was con- siderable talk going the rounds this week eliciting degree of curiosity as to how the Heinze stock would be able to meet the assessment of IS per share, and the answer was, that perhaps this stock had all been sold by the insiders around l. 5O$ per share and that they were now buying it back at 50 cents, which would give them the extra Is per share to pay the assessment on the stock.
 About 72O,OOO shares were voted in favor of the proposed reorganization plan of the Ohio Copper Co. at the special stockholders meeting held at Portland, Me-. on Monday. There were needed 65O,0OO shares to make the plan operative, of the l,26O,OOO shares outstanding, and the number voted was about 57 per cent of the stock out.
 Under the reorganization plan the bolders of old stock par l0$, will re- ceive share for share of new stock par 5$, on payment of Is per share for each share of old stock held. Ohio will thus raise l,260,0OO$, which, after pay ment of the floating debt of S4O,OOOS and the expenditure of 5O,OOOS on the completion of the third unit of the mill. will leave a working capital of approximately 35O,OOOs. This, it is figured, will be sutfic ent to put the company on a self-supporting basis without further levy on the stock holders. The new stock is issued as having 3S paid on its par of 5$, on ad- vice of counsel. In the event of Ohio desiring to further increase its capac- ity the shareholders could be asked to pay an additional 2$ a share, re- course necessary in view of the ill suc- cess the company has had in floating it's bonds.
 Further assessment, however. would only come in the event of present op. erations proving fully successful, ac- cording to the management.
 An engineer formerly connected with the Ono Copper Co.,. it is al- legged in Boston, asserts that frequent ly the average grade of the Ohio ore is less than l per cent copper. He says that streaks along the foot and the hanging walls are of good grade, but that the several hundred feet in- tervening in the vein is low in copper contents He states that if the con- pany mined the high grade streaks along these walls and treated a small CT tonnage some profit could be made.

NEGRO WAS ACQUITTED
OF MURDER CHARGE
Shot White Nan at Blairs, But E1f-
dence Showed Had Encounter
Before Shooting.

Winnsboro, Feb. 23.-The negro,
Will Suber, who killed a white man
named -Bouknight, at Blairs, several
months ago, was found not guilty at.
the recent court of general sessions,
which adjourned last night after three
days of busy work. The testimony on
the part of the State and that Of the
defense showed conclusiVely that the
negro was shot in the back by his as,
sailant before he pulled his pistol and
gave the white man a mortal wound
in the stomach. After hearing the
testimony in the case the presiding
Judge, Ernest Gary, declared that he
could not conscientiously impose a
sentence on the defendant if he was
convicted, and instructed the foreman
of the jury to write out verdict Of
not guilty.

MOB WANTED PRISONER
BUT FLED INSTEAD
Twenty Men at Orangeburg Jail Were
Frightened by Approach Of Fire
Department.

Orangeburg, Feb. 23.-The local jail
er had quite an experience last night
when a small mob of about 20 men,
who appeared to be negroes, came -
the county Jail and demanded pris-
oner named Brown. There was no
prisoner in the jail by that name, bat
the taller feared violence. An alarm
of fire was phoned in from the jail,
and in a short time the fire department.
was on hand and the negroes fled
upon the approach of the fire depart
ment.
The action of Jailer Board was
timely, as some of the negroes threat
ened violence if the doors were not
opened or the prisoner delivered. 1t
was thought that probably it was
disguised mob, who wanted to tate'
Arthur Bowen from the Jail. Bowen
was the negro who attempted a Grim
tnal assault upon a white woman near
Springfield and had just been se1-
fenced by the court to serve 20 yeaTs
in the State peniteniary. The town
was quiet the rest of the night ana
no violence is expected at any othsr
time.

steady humming Of the motor, throt

gasping of the exhaust. And present

Couch, and the launch moved only
with the tide.
Abruptly towering wall of opaque
black rose out of the darkness tc
starboard. O'Rourke braced himself
for the imminent instant Of action.
poised so lightly upon his toes and
fngertips that a swell from a moving
vessel would have thrown him o1
his balance, perhaps overheard. The
launch closed swiftly and silently in
upon the black wall; it lowered over
him like a cliff; far above he could
see dim divisions between black and
black that must be the rail. And he
shook his head, dismayed; he could
never scale that, he thought; not even
the O'Rourke could accomplish a mir
acle. But in a breath it had faded
back and he realized that the tower
ing poop of the junk had misled him.
They were now alongside at the waist.
He stood up and saw low railing
uo7ine and cn"oht it, over TIE edge OF
the rail, drew the launch in, let go the
boathook and, with the headwarp
wrapped about his hand, Jumped
blindly.
Something dealt him a vicious, all
but paralysing, blow in the pit Of the
stomach; he doubled up, for mo-
ment helpless, across the junk's rail,
but retained sufficient presence OF
mind to hold on to the headWarp.
Then, recovering trifle, he squlrmed
over and fell sprawling upon the deck,
his heels drumming an abrupt and
violent alarm. From somewhere he
heard a shrill jabbering arise, with an
ensuing patter Of bare feet. Swiftly
he got upon his knees and drew in the
headwarp, with his free hand search
ing along the rail for cleat. Some
thing thumped heavily on the deck be-
side him, and grunted; and something
else followed with second bump;
and the launch swung outward and,
caught by the current, jerked the
headwarp from his grasp. MAY the
luck of the O'Rourke still hold" he
prayed fervently, getting upon his feet
to realize that, with Couch and the
man Wheeler, he was imprisoned
aboard the junk, doomed there to re-

later they struck off with their train

new-found world Of beauty, wonderful
in it's shRdoWy mystery.
It was so ordered that they came
toward sundown of a certain day, to
the foot Of hill crowned with great
pagoda OF many multiplied roofs firing
ed with a myriad silver bells that
tinkled ceaselessly in the evening
airs.
Here they dismounted and together
made the ascent of an age-old wooden
stairway, broad and easy, and throng
ed from the first rise to the last with
weary pilgrims, beggars, lepers, laugh
Ing children, mendicant holy men. The
sun was low upon the horizon when
having bribed their way along thai
gauntlet, O'Rourke and his bride (she
could never be aught less to him) at
tanned to the topmost platform and
having received permission, with meei
show of reverence entered the temple
It was very dark inside and for q
time they moved blfndly in and out;
but at length they came to massive
doorway looking toward the West, and
here they paused, hand in hand, look
ing up to the placid face of huge
Buddha, who squatting cross-legged
upon a pedestal, looked through the
incense-scented gloom ceaselessly for
ward to Nirvaha.
The figure, carven originally from
stone, had been so heavily plastereo
with gold-leaves by the devout, that
now it had all the semblance Of being
gold to it's core; and, lavishly deco
rated with necklaces and bracelets OF
rare jewels set in crusted gold, in the
evening glow it shone like some great
lamp of holiness. Only its face was
In shadow.
Slowly the light struck higher be
meath the caves Of the pagoda, and
slowly 1t crept up and yet up, until it's
last blood-red shaft revealed the Bud
dha's forehead and what was set
therein, monstrous ruby.
The woman gasped family and
clung tightly to her husbands arm.
He held her close, watching the great
stone fame and throb and pulse, like
a pool Of living fame swimming In
darkness.
And then the light OF the Worlo
went out.
Pensively in the dusk they descend
ed the temple staircase. At the foot,
before they remounted their horses
the woman came to the man and put
her hands upon his shoulders.
