cheek, and G. B. Woods, guard, shot
in arm.
The three prisoners, Reed, Lane
and Kuntz, stormed the guard and
shot the three prison officials and
Judge Thomas, then rushed to the
penitentiary Office and forced F. C.
Rice and Miss Mary Foster to accom-
pany them to a buggy near the peni-

not be able to give any alarm. Miss
Foster was shot in the leg by one
Of the prisoners.

PICKED UP A GOOD THING
insIde History Of Senator clark's 40
QUESTION Of the Famous United
Verde Copper Mine.

Not many years ago q certain
wealthy man picked up a likely look
ing copper mine at the bargain price
of $4,000. As he was deeply inter-
ested in another mining property at
the time, he gave comparatively little
attention to his newest acquisition.
After four months had elapsed an
other wealthy man made the first
financier an offer of $35O,0eO for his
mining property. The latter figured
this way: "The $350,000 is equiva-
lent to S75 per cent on the original
investment, or at the rate of 2,625
per cent per annum. Not 80 bad"
and he accepted the offer. The pur-
chaser since that time has taken more
than $1o0,000,0o0 out of that cop
per mine and it still yields him an
income estimated at 100000 a
month.
The seller was Col. Robert M.
Thompson; the buyer, Senator Will
liam A. Clark, and the mine, the
United Verde.

LoGDoNERs FIGHT FOR SEATS
Scene Of Pushing and struggling uS

Indignant Newspaper.

ID it not possible for the authorities
to regulate and control the struggle
for places in the metropolitan omni-
buses which takes place every eve
ning7 asks the London Globe. Any
stranger to London who happens
upon one Of the termini Of the routes
at the time when the people are try
ing to return to their homes must be
shocked at the spectacle. The less
vigorous, the most tired, are remorse-
lessly thrust aside and seat in an
omnibus becomes something which
must be fought for as well as pur-
chased.
Such scene Of pushing and strug-
Cling is not to be paralleled in any
other capital in the world, and, as
every policeman knows, it is the
pickpocket's big opportunity. Eng
lish people have healthy dislike for
being over-regulated, but things
have got to that pass that the most
Independent will recognize that some
rules are really required. In Paris
the difficulty has been completely
overcome by the simple eIpedient of
issuing numbered tickets, which en-
title the holder to a given seat, and
which must be taken up before he
attempts to occupy it.
