WHAT BISBEE ORE SAYS
 ABOUT OLD TOMBSTONE

rts to,'o~i-r ;s what -re gisbes c-e had to say about Tombstone in it's weekly resume of the mining situation of the county of the sst week
 Tombstone properties are now said to be working about 400 men. They are kcsping ahead with systematic re. search and the methodical opening up of their ground. IL is id that the re- suits attending are of the most satis- factory character. Ore has it from a person in close touch with general Phelps Dodge matters as relatee to ont. side mining enterpnses that the com psuy feels that it could at any time bring about a production from Tomb stone ground that would pick up any shortage of ore that might occur from shutting gown of Nacozari or curtail- rneut of any or all of its other custom receipts for the shelter at Douglas.
 This is a great deal more than has been intimsted iu statements concern. ing progress al Tombstone but there IS rt tason for believing the statemen; quoted 70 have the best of authority behind 1t.

THE UNDOING 0F
 \ DARING HERO"

Constable Lafe Gibson of G,eeson was a visitor in the county seat yester- day having brought in for the atten- ton of the juvenile court, boy by the name of Alexander Madni.
 MadriI, it is charged. day or two ago took it into his head to turn bandit" ''robber," ''highwayman" or some such title, and proceeded to take possession of the school house at the mining camp. Stealing the keys away from the keeper of the place, he decid- ed to see what was inside and rified the desks, taking everything that he thought gas valuable. Accountant Bennie of the Leonard Copp CT Co.,, happened along about that time and interceded but Alexander. taking the cue of the hero" in Diamond Dick" or the Mystery of Red Gulch" invit- ed the gentlemen to "get a gun and fight 1t out" or words to that effect. However Alexander was not given a chance to light to the death" and was taken into custody by Constable Gibson. and he will probably be sent to the Industrial school where he can learn to read better things than dime novel;, and execute better deeds than strapping his "trusty revolver" 10 his side and taking the part of hero" "

They were supposed to have returned within a short time after Leaving and made the trip by rail. go- ,uo first to Fl Paso. where from there they probably took horses or other means of conveyance.
