cade OF seven machines which will

row night; IL they have no partners
the Tombstone girls will dance with
them. declares Gardner. who is in
close touch with the dance and the
hospitality Of Tombstone.
Speaking OF industrial conditions
in the Tombstone district Mr. Gard
ner said that they were most excel.
lent. More ore is being shipped
monthly from there than at any time
during the thirteen years of his resi-
dence in COchise county. Five hun.
dred tons OF high grade concentrates
were shipped by the Bunker Hill com
pany last month and one hundred tons
Of tailings. Manganese is available
in many properties of the Tombstone
district and as there is great and in
creasing demand for this metal Tomb
stone stands to see better results
from her mining<activities in the fu.
turs.
Another thing Mr. Gardner said
was that the road being constructed
between Bisbec and the county seat.
mostly by convicted bcotleggers. is
a fine piece OF work and when com.
pleted il will be a great help TO those
who are called from the southern
part OF the county on court business.
