RECORD SHIPMENTS
 FOR COMMERCIAL
(From Thursdays Daily.l


 Richard McNary is in the city from Copper Basin and states the Commer- cial has reached its high water mark in shipping out copper ores, seventy five tons being freighted daily to Skull valley. This output he says, could be doubled, but facilities for handling it are limited. Mine condi- tions he says, look bright for the future, and it is estimated fully 6,0OO tons are ahead of the freighting out fits. The general situation in that field has recently assumed a healthy outlook, and two more camps are in operation, with sales under considera- ton. The success of the Commercial IS the inducement to attract capital, and railroad communication from Skull valley is regarded as a proba- bility inside of another year, from what is expected to be determined in a short time.

CLIMAX READY TO
 SHIP CONCENTRATES
(From Thursdays Daily.)

Several hundred tons of an accum- ulated concentrate output of the Cli- max mill is to be marketed and the packing out from the camp to the saddle of Copper Basin hill begins ir a few days. From that point it will be transferred to freight teams and brought to this city. This yield is re ported to run high in gold, and will be the first shipment made in several years Heretofore the company has made a speciality of recovering only the values of the free milling ores, and bringing in gold bullion. The mill premises are said to be congest- ed with the rebellious product. A pack train is to come from the Verde country, the wagon road to the camp being impossible to teams.

THOMPSON SELLS
 LEAD-SILVER PROPERTY
(From Thursdays Daily.)


 Charles Thompson, for many years mining in Black Rock district, is reap ing the reward of his labors, selling recently to California syndicate his group of lead-silver mines, for sever al thousand dollars, in which a satis- factory cash payment was made.
 The group is situated below Wal nut Grove, and near the Hassayampa river. In addition to the above min erals, a gold bi-product made the property attractive for selling. Sev- eral hundred feet of practical worI; had been performed by Thompson and the negotiations were hastily closed owing to the excellent show ing in evidence. Since assuming charge the new operators have built an auto wagon road to the camp, and ship ping to Wickenburg was started this week.
 Thompson was in Prescott a few days ago, and stated he will establish T camp near Tiptop, where he has a tungsten property to develop, the ores also carrying good values in sil yer. He states the old Tiptop has awakened, since tungsten quotations are high, and quite an influx of min CTS and prospectors is again notice able to that region. The deserving pioneer will soon enjoy his first trip out of Arizona in over a third of a century, visiting the San Francisco exposition.

HERE'S A SNAKE STORY
 THAT IS A BEAUT

PARKER, Ariz., Nov. 3.-One of the most curious specimens of reptile life ever seen and probably the only one in existence-a snake with all the colors of the American flag, even to the stars in the blue-was caught at the Mammon mine one day last week by E. s. Osborne, IT,, son of the man ager of the mine. It was first seen by Miss Clara Osborne, near the dwelling house, who pointed it out to him. It was little snake, about eighteen inches in length and about half inch in thickness at the largest part, and from head to tail it had red, white and blue stripes running cross wise of its body, the blue and red stripes being about three-quarters of an inch in width while the white ones were about quarter of an inch wide, all of the brightest hue. These stripes alternated regularly, starting with e blue band around the head. then d white and then a red But what made it still more remarkable was the fact that perfect star appeared in each blue band. In the one on the hea ] and also the one encircling the middle of the body the star was quite dis tinct but in the other blue stripes t was hardly discernible as though not yet fully developed.
 Acting upon his first impulse, for getting for the time that the snake was gliding under the colors of the American flag, Mir. Osborne seized a stick and killed the strange reptile, much to his subsequent regret for had it been captured alive it would have been of incalculable value to science as well as a freakish speci men. and there would have been no possible grounds for doubting its genuineness.
 The poor little creature seemed to have no defense whatever and sought only to escape, fact which would go to show that it was of the non-ven- omous kind for the venomous species are spunky and invariably seek to de fcnd themselves when attacked or ir- ritated. Another feature of this little reptile which seems still more to es- trange it from all other species of thl Arizona snake is that it emitted vocal sounds, squealing Justify when struck with the stick
 The reptile was carefully skinned and Mr. Osborne, Sr., brought the hide 10 town last Saturday, and later sent it to friends in Los Angeles wno will place it on exhibition. He deep ly dcplores the thoughtless killing of the snake, rightly stating that he would not for thousand dollars that 1t had been done.
 Connoisseurs of reptiles in this To- cality are of the opinion that the snake belongs to that species com monly known as the "king snake . natural and formidable enemy of thu rattler, and that the tri-colors instead Of the plain black-and-white are thi result of a freak of nature.
 The king snakes are very common hereabouts and grow to very large size, one being seen by J. H. Watson of the ArizonaEmpire mine, one day last week that was fully seven feet in length. They belong to the con. strictor family, are not venomous and perfectly harmless to mankind, though the common enemy of rattlesnakcs, attacking them wherever found and killing them by constriction.

Mack Not Anxious
to Cling to Baker

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. IA
Connie Mack, the usually ST.
lent pilot Of the Athletics, halted
long enough to-day as he was
about to take the train to attend
the American League meeting in
Chicago to intimate that if the
right kind Of proposition comes
along, he will acquiesce in the
transfer Of Frank Baker to the
Yankees. Connie furthermore
said no proposition had been
brought to his attention by those
desiring Bakers services.
81 have read In the newspapers
that several teams were in the
market for Baker, but 80 far no
proposition for his release has
been made to me. It might not
be the most pleasant thing to
have Baker on the Athletics next
season. Regardless Of this, how
ever, I feel that he owes US two
years because Of his failure to
join the team last season. I am
not overly anxious to have Baker
on the team next season, even
though I will not be satisfied until
I have another championship
