THE GILA MONSTER.
RepulsiVe In Looks, II Is Really a
Harmless Creature.

HoPuiSNc IN LOOMS " IS neaUy
Harmless Creature.
Probably there is no other living
creature more feared by the ignorant
than the ella monster, about which all
1t has even been held that the mere
breath OF this animal is sufficient to
cause death to the one upon whom it
fell, Scientific inquiry, however fails
to disclose Il single instance wherein
the breath or even the bite OF this
cIVature has resulted fatally. The
fact that dissection and microscopic
examination do not reveal any trace OF
glands for the secretion of venom Is
sufficient evidence to Indicate that this
curious member of the lizard family
has been slandered.
Some years ago a civil engineer in
the southwest undertook TO settle once
for all the question whether the mon
ster" was deadly or not. A fine speci-
men was captured and confined in a
wire inclosure. A chicken was obtain
ed, and its feathers were removed in
order that the lizard might have every
opportunity to strike at the breast.
The chicken was then held quite close
to the ella monster, which soon snap
ped viciouSly and secured Il firm hold
on the fowls breast, retaining this grip
for more than ten minutes. When the
victim was released it was found that
the chickens breaStbone had been bro
ken. Nevertheless the fowl quickly
recovered. the bone knitting and the
wound healing with no symptoms Of
poisoning.
1t is very probable that the reputa-
tion for evil borne by the Gila mon
ster is due simply and solely to its
most repuSive ppearance.-Harper's
Weekly.

THE UBIQUITOUS SEA LION.
He Strayed a Long Way From Home
Before He Was Killed.

Before He Was Killed.
The following story is taken from
the American Magazine:
sunday is a dull day. and the city
editors had habit of detailing men to
go to the geological gardens and get
animal stories for Monday morning
The reporters got together one Sunday
morning and persuaded the head ami
NAL keeper to let them publish a fake
story. 1t was rather commonplace,
concerning the alleged escape of Il non.
existent sea lion from the pUU to open
water.
Fake said the managing editor as
good one.
"Thereupon he sent kilograms to ev-
cry country correspondent on that wa
ter or its tributaries. merely inquiring
if anything had been seen of the es-
capped sea lion. The response was ap-
palling. The correspondents needed
only the hint. That day the sea lion
was seen by at least twenty corre-
spondents, and Berghand printed all
the reports one after another. Thus
spurred. the correspondents went to it
in earnest, The following day the sea
lion was reported at every point with
in 200 miles The story spread like
rippIes on water. IN five days the lion
was sighted over half the world, and
an enthusiast at Southampton cabled
that he was heading toward the north
sea. Then cruel correspondent up on
Lake Superior killed him and wired
that he was sending the skin rs proof
always suspected that the managing
editor did it himself"

A Sack of Nuggets.

The old adage that silence is gold en was exemplfied yesterday when a placer miner named George Bostck displayed a shot sack full of nuggets but refused to divulge whence they came or place any particular value on the goods, other than to say their value would range close to l,5OU$. The shipment will go to the mint at San Francisco.
 The owner stated that is not the first time he has made such consign, ments. On being questioned as to the location of his Fl Dorado, Bostlck pointed in the direction of the south western part of the country, from which is Inferred that the yield may possibly be traced to the Rich Hill region. famed for it's fabulous produc- tioa in early days, when hundreds of thousands of the yellow stuff was talk en from that hill ana the side gulches below. The old beds are still in the productive class. and hardly a month passes by but what l0O$ nugget is not taken from under boulder or washed out of the old diggings on the summit. Only last winter 240$ mug get was recovered by Mexican after big boulder had been dislodged from it's moorings of probably hundreds of years, while thousands of dollars are monthly taken out of the soil by the many Mexicans and white miners, who continue to cherish the old-time belief that a big find some day, sooner or later, will reward the lucky one who stumbles onto the right spot.
 Rich Hill has to its credit over a million and q half of golden dollars since the original strike in 1862, when the seven men who made the first cleanup had 500,000$ to their credit. All left the country immediately, with

Six Feet of Nickel Ore.

H. l.. Sweeney and Bert Thorne were in Prescott during the past week from their Golden Gate group of mines in the Grapevine canyon section of the Black Hills. For the past ten years these gentlemen have owned the claims, and during the past five years have shown their faith by working them almost constantly, putting into their development not only their labor, but large sum in cash. Many hun dreds of feet of work has been done by their own hands. Several tunnels have been driven, two of the tunnels being 100 and 800 feet in length, respectively. By thls means have been opened up the several large veins which traverse the group of twelve claims. One of these veins shows by tape.llne meas urement width of 100 feet on the surface, this outcrop being low-grade copper ore, while second vein 30 feet in width carries nickel, cobalt, copper. gold and silver. Of the whole mass there is distinct streak six feet in width which shows nickel ore runnin g as high as 40 per cent. in that metal. Besides this the copper and other met als contained in the big vein are found in large bodies Prescott Courier.

First Bar Gold Bullion
 Being Retorted.

N. H. Getchell, superintendent of the Y-P Mining company, while in the city yesterday stated the first bar of gold bullion was being retorted, and large tonnage of concentrates was ready for shipment to El Paso smelters.
 The mill has been running ten days. and an average of nearly forty tons per day is being treated. In speaking of the Mcneil sinner and the capability of the rebuilt mill, Mr. Getchell states the com bined service exceeds ex. pectations, the taillngs carrying a ton mage value of but B cents based on sample assays made on the dump The concentrates are being separated into three grades, and the first ship ment will be made in short time.
 Starting today, Ruffners freight teams begin loading two cars of ship ping ore for Fl Paso, which tonnage is to be increased as development goes ahead on new vein recently en- countered. Mr. Getcheli is decidedly optimistic over the future of his con- pany, and states the mill has several months work ahead, and there will be no interruption whatever in keeping it dropping stamps day and night on the old dump that has sufficient tonnage to last for early two ars.-Prescott Journal Miner.

With mmendable persistency Presi- dent Hull is continuing prospecting work on the Hull company's ground. At the 500J- foot point in the Hull tun- nel, west of the 1888 shaft, he is sink ing a winze on ledge which was cut by the tunnel. It is the intention to sink this winze to the sulphide ores which are supposed to be below. The tunnel, which is now in 5250 feet, is being run through another ledge. Northwest of the United Verde, on the Jerome claim, tunnel which had been run through a ledge a few years ago, is being continued southwest into the Missing Link, where promising ledge has been uncovered on the surface. It looks very much as if tho Hull would develop into producer in the near future. e.-Jerome News.

Jumbo Extension
 is Boosted Again.

If reports published in the Goldfeld News" may be accepted as even half true, then it is apparent that con- ditions which now rule at the Jumbo Extension mine of Goldfield are en- tirely at variance with those reported by President Van Dyck in his recent communication to stockholders. The Goldfeld News, in it's issue of August 9, says:
 High grade ore is again being ex- tracted for shipment by the Jumbo Extension company and this material will be sent to the sampler of the Western Ore Purchasing company, be. ing of too high grade to yield the best results if treated at the mining company's leased mill. About three weeks ago the Jumbo Extension ship. ped two carloads of this ore and re- ceived returns showing the value to be in the neighborhood of 9SS per ton, while another carload, sent out about week ago, milled little over S6$ per ton.
 During the past week or more no attempt has been made to extract any of this richer ore, excepting as it was broken in taking out the product of lower grade for the mill. The ore. body is from six to eight feet in width, the high grade seam forming the cen ter or core of the vein and being from 30 inches to three feet wide, while the lower milling grade ore forms the foot and hanging walls of the richer ma terial, It is expected that sufficient of the shipping ore will be taken out within the next few days to make up another carload for the sampler.
 Concentrates are being shipped by the Jumbo Extension company to the smelter of the International Smelling and Refining company at Tooele, Utah. A carload of this product shipped late last month yielded lOOS per ton and another carload that will be sent for ward within day or two is expected to average better than 9OS per ton. Mil-heads at the plant at Bonnie Clare, where the company is treating an average of fifty tons daily, are being maintained at about l0$ per ton Treatment of this product is entirely by concentration, with recovery of about 70 per cent,
