 The development up to the present time placcs the mine in the great class. The extent of the ore body is as yet unknown. but it is evident the mine is of the first magnitude. Although the property consists of forty claims the ore thus far has been taken from one, the remaining thirty mine being un- developed

 The strike may not be ore. however. he asys. It may be maps literature and circulars.
 While MT Banberger does not be- lieve that every good prospect will develop into a mine, he is convinced that Arizona will be a mining camp from one end to the other. He be- leves that a number of the strikes will be made and soon He predicts a strike of rich ore in more than one district, for he is of the belief that there are other United Verde Exten- sons and Magmas in the red metal state.

UNCLE JOHN SAYS FRIDAY IL
UNLUCkY FOR MANY FOLKS.

Yes, SIR" said Uncle John when
he dropped in our office last Friday
morning, telling us he had TO hurry
back and start big job of cleaning
up and draining wet spot on his
farm,-"yes. SIR" he repeated, time
was when / wouldn't a started nary
single thing worth mentionin' on
Friday"
Fact is," he continued, lin them
days Friday was sure-enough dog
gone unlucky day for me, and so
was the 18th of every month And I
believe they are everlastinly unlucky
days yet for lots o. folks. But as for
me and my house, as the preacher
says, We've done got shet of that
hoodoo."
Whereupon we asked him how he
had removed the spell. That's easy
enough" the old man answered.
Used to be when Friday or the 18th
come around, l Wouldn't do some
thin / ought to have done that day.
or wouldn't start something / ought
to have started, and the upshot of il
was, 1t was always an unlucky day
for me. But since / quit all such fool
ishness as that, them days are about
the luckiest days l know, and when
Friday and the 18th double up on
one and the same day, / like to swat
the old fake by startin' more things
and doin' more things than almost
any other day. I'm tired wastin' my
time an sweat on poor hill land and
bushes and I'm goin' to start cleanin'
it up today and make dozen barrels
OF corn an acre on it next year"
But don't you forget this" said
Uncle John in leaving, don't you
forget this-that If fellow don't
know any better than to believe Fri
day is an unlucky day fer him, it's
dead sure going to be unlucky.Y
