EARLY DEVELOPMENT
 OF TROY ARIZONA MINE
Consulting Engineer Won Rosenberg Believes Property Will be Good
 Producer.

Leo Won Rosenberg, consulting min ing engineer of New York, arrived a few days ago in Phoenix. He goes to the Troy mines. situated about six miles easterly of the Ray Consolidated. to direct some preliminary develop ment work on the property of the Troy Arizona Copper company This com pany is the successor Of the Troy Man haitian Copper company.
 MT. Von Rosenberg made two exam nations Of that property last year and again visited the property in October. He is convinced that with proper de- velopment work the Troy property will become a good producer.
 The management of the former com pany followed to large extent a wrong plan of development. MT. Won Rosen-
 berg firmly believes that the better parts of the property have been en- tirely neglected and that several good copper mines will be opened up by the new plan of development based upon a very careful geological examination of the locality made during the several visits to the property by him. He is well known in this state and in the rest of the mining states in the United States, also Mexico and South America.

UNEXPECTED FORTUNE
 OF A PHOENIX MAN
1t Came Direct From the United
 States Treasury.

H. w. Daykin, member of the Mill ler-Sterling company doesn't know whether to invest it in Phoenix real estate or Standard Oil stock. He has the money and can do as he pleases with it. MT. Daykin yesterday re ceived a remittance from the comptrol- Ter of currency who rescued it from a bank that collapsed at Hutchinson. Kansas in the panic of 1893.
 Some time after that, that is, some years, there was a partial settlement of the affairs of the bank and MT. Day kin one of the depositors received a small share of his deposit, as much as he expected ever to get.
 It was therefore with pleased sur prise that he received an official enve- lope enclosing check for 81 cents which the comptroller informed him was vet due him on his Hutchinson bank account. He was requested to re- turn his certificate of deposit in order that the record might be kept straight He can't do that. At some time within the twenty years that have elapsed the certificate has disappeared. It was the kind of a document that naturally MT. Daykin would not hire safety deposit box to keep it in.

 When Washington was fourteen Years old he had q desire to go t. sea and | mi1shipman's warrant was secured for him. but through the op- position of his mother the idea was abandoned. Two Wears later he was appointed surveyor 10 the immense estate of Lord Fairfax.
