INCORPORATE COPPER COMPANY
Old Rip Van Wrinkle Comes to Life
After Thirty Years; Had 0xidized
Ores Worked Out. But Former
Owners Did Not Reach Sulphide.

\ new mining company is 10 be in
rurporated soon by Lee Russell OF
Dcming and Ed Burch of Hurley.
The property is located two miles
west of Fierro in the mineral belt
between Santa Rita and Penos Al.
tos. Thirty-tive years ago. the oxi.
diced ore was worked out by com
pany which smelted at Silver City
At that time il was known as the
Rip Van Winkle. Like the original
Rip. il slept through the years until
Lee Russell discovered two years
ago that below the old workings lies
II considerable body of sulphide ore
which carries enough gold and silver
tn pay all the expenses Of extracting
the copper. There are ~ix claims
covering 100 acres.
The first miners sunk shaft sew
cnty y-iivc feet and ran tunnel
eighty feet. taking out the ore above
by Slopes. II was in the end of this
tunnel that Mr.. Russell found the
apex of the sulphide zone. lie went
down to l25 feet in sulphide ores and
ran tunnel LAG feet on the ore
chute. lie found that he would have
Ia 90 down Ia 200 feet before strik

to right wrongs, and to solve the
problems with which the world is
cSHfronted. In the old days whch
men were oppressed. there was no
remedy except a campaign of blood
she'd. Now we resort to II campaign
of education. The conditions in
Mexico and in the United States diff
fer principally in the ignorance in
Mexico ~ compared with the en-
lightenmcnt in the United States.
Education is 50 strongly sup.
ported and 81 generously endowed
in the United States that there is the
l,"~>iblc danger hiat the boys and
.irl> who obtain it 80 easily now may
not appreciate ii 10 the same extent
as those of other generations who
found il more difficult. There is al
80 the danger that the true purpose
of education may not be understood.
The distinction Is drawn between the
mere taking of the prescribed cour-
Ses as n matter of course, and be-
cause others do it, and that study
which tcads to develop the reason
ing and thinking faculties with which
man j. endowed All of the advan.
tagc> which are now offered prove
unavailing unless the pupil possesses
II fixed purpose, and becomes inter-
rsicd and inspired by the work.
Boys and girls in school are
simply preparing for life; and the,
should do - with reference to the
conditions which they will find when
they have finished school. and are
ready to take their places in the
world of work. The great demand of
the age Is for efficiency. The day
has passed when the undevelopcd nat
nral resources of the United States
offer an easy living TO the man
without ideas. The day of intensive
farming, of organization in business.
and of elimination of waste have ar
rived. The man who would meet
these conditions must he efficient. lie
must be- prepared lo analyzc the
process Of cause aud effect. aud he
able I" locate aud remove the cause
which j. producing bad results. The
Inefficient man merely accepts re
suits ~ he iind~ them: and such men
are every year going to the scrap
heap. along with anliquated machi-
merry.
III is easy for the boy to see the
necessity of efficiency in sports.
That is n present and pressing ne
ccssity: hut il is more difficult for
him Ia realize that the same quality
is needed in his school work. As
matter of fact. ineffciency is largely
II matter of habit. and it is formed
by many boys and girls during their
school lives. Sighting school work
helps to form the habit which makes
them slight their life work. The class
is urged. as il enters the high
school, to enter il with the same ear
nestness shown in baseball. To con-
centrate on il 10 the same extent as
on their sports. and TO be as careful
and proud of their recitation average
as of their batting ayerape.v

under arrest as a suspect.


In DEFAULTS room, a suit case was
found which contained in addition TO
the missing jewelry, several suits of
clothes, a number of neckties, two
caps, hat and several photographs
on post cards. One of the latter was
the exact duplicate of the picture
found by Tiger. DeVault was not in.
formed of Tigers discovery, but was
questioned as to the identity of the
other man on the card found in his
suit case. He stated that 1t was one
Davis, whose whereabouts he did not
know.
The three men were locked in the
county Jail DeVault stoutly main.
tains that the suit case, in which the
missing watch cases were found, does
not belong to him, but was left in his
care by a friend, Dexter by name,
who did not return to Columbus, and
whose present location is unknown
to him. Local police believe that this
defense can soon be shattered, when
DeVault is confronted with the evi.
dence against him.
DeVault has served term for bur
glary in the Mansfield reformatory,
having been sent up from Franklin
county. He was released from there
five months ago.
The Columbus police, as we'll as the
Mt. Vernon authorities, believe that
the two men arrested with DeVault
were not implicated in the Tiger bur.
glary. 1t is believed that there were
two other men implicated in the local
burglary and that they made their
escape.
DEFAULT Dunn and Huffman, when
arraigned before Mayor Perrine Mon
day morning at 10 o'clock, waived ex-
animation and were bound over to
common pleas court to await the ac-
tion of the grand jury. Bond, in the
sum of $500 each, was not furnished
and the trio was committed TO the
county Jail.

Members Hear A Lecture
Given By Terrence Mitchell

The Knox County Pomona Grange
met on Saturday, May 10, with the
Clinton grange. Although it is a very
busy time for the hustling farmer a
business session was held in the fore.
noon, Worthy Master Nixon presid.
ing
After the usual social dinner hour,
an open lecture session was held.
Terrence Mitchell was lecturer IN
the absence of j. II. Bone. This
proved not only interesting and in
structive but things OF vital import
ance to farmers and grangers were
discussed.
The worthy master tried to impress
us that Sinking is dishonest and
that each one should be in his place
and assume his share Of responsible
ity in each and every meeting"-then
the grangers would not only grow
numerically but intellectually and de-
,elop latent talent which one of the
important features OF grange work.
About eight or ten grangers gave
reports from subordinates and some
very helpful ideas were exchanged.
In conclusion, County Deputy Hays
gave a good talk on the necessity Of
a county superintendent to advise
along agricultural and moral lines
and make the grange more helpful
and cooperative.
After ample discussion and ap-
pointment of several important com.
mittees the grange closed to meet
with Milford the third Saturday in
June, in an all-day session, each one
bringing his dinner basket.

Contained Photo Of The Man
Arrested In Columbus
Two Suspects Also Brought
To The City On Sunday

Possession of six watch cases, iden-
tilted as property stolen from Ned IL
ger, jeweler, of this city, furnished
sufficient evidence to bring Riley De.
Vault, alias Robert Evans, Of Colum.
bus to this city Sunday morning to
answer to charge of burglarizing
the Tiger jewelry store on the night of
April 19. 1915.
Chief of Police Parker and Officer
Alsdorf brought DeVault over from
Columbus and also Edward Huffman
and ]. F.. Dunn, who were found by
Columbus police living with DeVault
in room on Third street, Columbus
The three men we're rounded up
Friday by the Columbus police, after
a search extending over number Of
days. Two watch cases were found
some time ago in front of Columbus
livery stable and the same turned in
to police headquarters. Remember
ing the Tiger burglary, Chief of Police
Carter instituted search for the per-
son or persons who had dropped the
cases near the stable. The list of
those hiring rigs from the stable for
several days back was secured from
the proprietor and carefully scanned.
Then an investigation of all these
to the rounding up of the three men
mentioned above.
Ned Tiger was notified Friday even
ing by Chief Carter of the arrest and
went to Columbus Saturday to identi-
fly, his property. OF the six watch
cases found in DEFAULTS possession,
Tiger had the factory numbers of two
while the other four still bore the
tags and price marks in Tigers own
handwriting.
Another discriminating feature was
the possession by Tiger of post card
ON which was printed picture Of
two men. Tiger found this in the yard
back of his store the morning after
the burglary and at that time took it
to local police headquarters, suggest.
ing that it might serve as a possible
clue. Chief Parker was inclined to
doubt this, suggesting that it was very
improbable that a burglar would
leave his photograph near the scene
of his actions. Tiger, however. re-
tanned the card in his possession.
Preliminary to identifying the jew
elry SATURDAY., Tiger told Chief Carter
of the card he had found in the yard
back of his store. Carter asked to
see the card and Immediately in
formed Tiger that one of the men pic
tured thereon was DeVault, who was
