Bisbee daily review., 1915-11-21

0H thing over 38 years ago now, there was detachment Of United States soldiers vending it's way from Wicken- burg Co Fort Huachuca. With this de- tachment was a prospector named Ed Schiefllin. Whether he had heard from some scout or from some earlier Drospector of indications of rich ore deposits Go be found among the Apache infested hills cannot now be told. but while the detachment was crossing the San Pedro valley, near ling the last stages of it's march, Schiofflln took his burros, left the party, and went up into the hills to the east By day he hid out" from the Apaches; by night he prospected What he found led him to the belief that he had come upon a bonanza. And as it proved to be, he had
 Schieffliu returned to Globe. where ne showed his samples to his brother, Albert, and to Richard Grebe. They joined him on his return trip. They outfitted, some say they were grub staked." at Tucson and it was while there that he is said to have been told that if he undertook to open 8 mine in the Apache country he would find tombstone. not a fortune Be this as it may, Schiefnin called one of the i claims he located the "Tombstone,' 20 and from that claim the great mining camp that grew up near his bonanza find took its name.
 Location is Ideal.
 ! From beauty of location from salu- ! lbriousness of climate, from healthfui- lness of site and from the longevity of its residents the county seat of Cochise county has from the outset belied the legubrious name that Ed Schiefflin bestowed upon it. In all 1 the southwest there is not more beautiful city. either from the gifts 1 of nature or the handiwork of man. than the city with grewsome name.
 Becomes County Seat.
 There is not a mining camp that | has been more written of than has Tombstone, whether by it's true name or in the ''Wolfville" stories. It is un- ! necessary, therefore. to deal with it's early history beyond the statement that it thrived and prospered and when a new county was created Tomb stone. its most important and most populOus community. was made the seat of the county government. It is the present and the ultimate future Of Tombstone, not its past, that really matters.
 Situated upon a sloping mesa be. tween the Mule and the Dragoon mountains. looking out upon. across and over the San Pedro valley to the west backed up by hills and noun taius stands tle town of Tombstone. Back of it on the hillsides are it's mines and its mills. From these hills millions have already been taken and there in those hills still remain millions more in ore.
 Health Resort Planned.
 The gentle slope from hills toward valley has given to Tombstone a nat. ural drainage which made greatly for the healthtulness of the community To this was added by bountiful ma ture climate SO equable, SO vital ized, so invigorating and inspiritine as to compel strength and vigor ! Bright and sunny days, warming in winter, devoid of sulry heat in the summer nights under the deep pur pie of an Arizona sky, bedecked and lespanglod with glistening stars make . life a joy in itself Yet Tombstone never capitalized such natural re sources It is only now that it is ? proposed to establish close at hand g lresort where these beauties and boun ] ties may be enjoyed by all, and wher, vigor and strength will be restored t, the weary Such plans have not ye taken the definite shape that is need led for announcement of details. N, , tuberculosis camp is planned, but tn, resources of climate and location arr lac length to be utilized. Without doub lanother name than Tombstone win bD given to such resort but it will difie from the charming city only in tn name that may be bestowed upon it.
 Big Capital Comes.
 Confident ol the ore values and O the great deposits that lie in the hin and mountains bock of Tombstone the greatest combination of capita engaged in the development of miner al resources in the Southwest tn Phelps-Dodse interest have now tal en over the best developed minin properties in that district and numol ous though by no means all, Che aC iaccnt claims There it operate
 through a subsidiary company tn
 Bunker HnL These interests have a
 their disposal not only ample weah
