PIPE SPRINGS TO BE
 NATIONAL MONUMENT

In the north part of Mohave county is one of the most picturesque spots in the state, and is known as Pipe Springs, situated at the head of Pipe Springs valley, one of the great val leys lying along the outskirts of the Kaibab Plateau. This spring bursts out of the small hill and sinks into the valley a short distance from it's rise. At one time a stone building used as a fort was erected over the spring so that the occupants might have protection from the Indians and at the same time have the use of the spring in case of siege. These old buildings are still intact, although erected in the early sixties of the 18th century. During the past twenty or thirty years the place has been claimed and occupied by the Heaton family, an: a bill is now before .ul gress for their relief in connection with the great spring. The spring is OH the Kaibab Indian Reservation and this department of the government ';s been striving tc get the Heatons off the place, but without success. Ire relief bill has the sponsoring of Congressman Hayden, of Arizona, and ulless the prog osit:on of Director of National Park. Stephen T. Mather, prevails the Hayden relief bill vii! become law.
 The Deseret News, of Salt Lake City, has the following to say of the old place:
 "Pipe Springs ranch, famous in Utah and Arizona history, may be made a national monument, according to personal communication received this morning in this city from Nation al Park Director Stephen T. Mather.
 While many national monuments have been founded all over the coun- try there is as yet none in this part of the world of the nature of the ranch which in early days was really an oasis to thousands of settlers thread ing the western reaches. It is in northern Arizona and was the only water within sixty miles on the road between Dixie and Kanab in pioneer times.
 Persons going between these two points detoured to the old ranch or fort to get the waters from one of the purest springs to be found in the world.
 Pipe Springs is just three. miles south of Moccasin springs and eight miles south of the Utah line. It was settled early in 1863 by Dr. James M. Whitmore, who owned the place and was later killed by Indians. Presi- dent Brigham Young purchased the

CARLOAD H|CHCRADF READY TO SHIP
 FROM GEN. LEE

l. M. George, accompanied by w. P. DeWolfe, M. B. Dudley and Dr. J. c. Hughes, returned last Friday night from Cedar, where they looked over the General Lee and other mining claims, now under option to MT.
 George. The work that is being car ried on by w. P. Carr and associates on the General Lee is showing better ore with every foot of new develop ment, the ore showing that it is going down as we'll as toward the surface. So far about carload of the rich ma terial has been taken out and is be- ing sacked for shipment.
 While at the mine MT. George took samples from the ore streak, which is IS inches wide, that gave assay values as follows: No. 1, gold $122.05, silver $19.6O, total of $141.65; No. 2 sam pie, gold $581.O2, silver $50S.32, total of $1OS9.34, which is some showing for the mine. But picked sample from the vein gave an assay of $7,S66.62 in gold and silver, the rock being mixed quartz and granite and the leasers not recognizing it as ore. The assays rather astonished the visitors, as they were unaware of this high grade mat erial being carried by the big vein. As soon as the first shipment is sent to the smelter the leasers expect to take another lift on the ore shoot and will be in position to continue the out put indefinitely. In the bottnm of the drift the ore is showing better than in the stopes, the ore bearing vein widening and the values holding con- sistently. The mines that are under option to the men operating them are among the best properties of the coun- ty. Some of them have been opened to considerable depth, but need further exploration to ascertain their potent ality fer production. Much mili ore is to be Led in the stopes s'rt ,consid- crablc Figh grade is obtainable, but with sinking to deeper levels we be- leve the mines will become large pro ,,users of geld and silver. Tie. facts that the eln carry a preponderance Of gold is one of the important features of the veins of the Cedar Valley dis trict, and should attract wide atten' tion to them. Of course, the ores are base and will have to be concentrated and smelted, although it is possible to calcine the mill product and amalga- mate the concentrates. %

GOT ITS NAME FROM STREAM
How New York's Famous :"Maiden Lane" Received Nomenclature
 a That Is World Famous.

Maiden lane, the home of the jew York, and known over the world for that fact, received its name before it was street. It took it from a very pretty little stream that ran across that part of the city. It was the cus- tom in that day, before the time of wringers and washing machines, for the young women to do the family washing.
 The clothes were carried here and the day spent in cleansing them in what is described as a rippling brook. Some of the men who have dug into New York's early history profess to have discovered that it was: also a place where the young men of the time repaired, being pretty certain of getting chance to talk with the girls.
 The stream was outside the city as 1t existed at that time, most of it be- ing behind the big wooden wall that Peter Stuyvesant had built, so that in order to get to Maiden lane 1t was necessary to go out through the gate with the family wash. There is noth- ing to show that Monday was then the popular washday with families, as 1t is now and was later. But it is likely the Dutch began to get things to rights early in the week, and it probably was Monday that saw the greatest gathering of maidens along the little stream, washing and rinsing clothes.
