the neighborhood dt about twenty-five
claims in the Dragoon*, has been ac-
quired by Messrs Preston and John-
son, the company having failed to per-
form Its assessment work as required
by law for the past two years. The
company which, originally owned the
property was composed entirely of
wealthy Chinamen of San Francisco,
who did considerable work on tho
various claim*, the slock of the said
company having sold as high as five
dollar* per share, and was capitalized
at one and a half million dollars. It
appears that some dispute arose
among the directors, and operations
were suspended on the property,
which has since been idle.
The Swain Property.
The Swain property, which Is lo-
cated in the Dragoon mountains about
twelve miles from the city of Tomb-
stone, and consists of ten claims, is at
the present time under development
and up to date in the neighborhood of
one hundred tons of high grade ore

ore, according to the assayer'g report,

Middlemarch Copper Company,
At the Middlemarch camp work#as
been resumed under the direction of
Superintendent Kelly. At the present
time a force of men is engaged in de-
veloping a tunnel on this property,
which Is one of the oldest in the Dra-
goon mining district. A large body of
high grade sulphide ore was recently
uncovered in the tunnel now under
development, the same averaging It
to 20 per cent copper, $10 in gold and
carrying much sliver. It is the Inten-
tion of the management to increase
the working force in the next month
and do further work on the balance
of the claims in that district.
Dragoon M. A 8. Company,
The property of the Dragoon Min-
ing and Smelting Co:, which has been
idle for some time pa«t, Is to be re-
sumed during the summer, the shaft
of the main working having already
been drained of the water which has
accumulated during the past two
years. This is numbered among one
of the best properties In the Dragoon
region, as considerable work has been
done, the same uncovering large ore
bodies running high in copper. It is
the Intention to develop these bodies
of ore more extensively and get the
same ready for shipment.

Arizona M. A M. Company.
The Arizona Mining and Milling
Company, operating mines at Patago-
nia, contemplates resumption of work
on its properties in the South Pass
district within a short time. On the
South Hass property considerable
work has been done In the way of de-
velopment. A rich gold strike was
made recently while the annual assess-
ment work was being completed, and
it is expected that this body of ore
will be developed and explored by the
management.
Prospetcors at Work.
According to visitors in the city
from various parts of the Dragoon
mountains it i* learned that a num-
ber of prospectors are busily engaged
in developing and prospecting their
respective claims, and reports are
heard dally of strikes -of all kinds be-
ing made In and around the Dragoon
district, which, according to mining
men of note, goes to show that it will
not be very long before the various
districts of those mountains will see
development work on an extensive
scale, and each and every mine turned
Into a producer.

tween Mr. Jeffries and Mr. Johnson?
A. Uh?
Q. From the standpoint of a re-
former?
A. A brutal and degrading exhibi-
tion, a gory and debasing spectacle
calculated to arouse the worst pas-
sions of those low enough to be pres-
ent.
Q. Is that all?
A. No; it is also a revolting strug
g'4 between twp prehistoric types,
and is in defianfe of all laws.
Q. Is there any other view of the
argument? k
A. Yes. „
Different from the above?
Slightly.
State It.
The affair, in the first place, is
not in any sense a fight; it is, on the
contrary, an exhibition of sparring
between two scientific students of
the game. It is not brutal in the
slightest degree, but an interesting
contest for supremacy in the highly
developed art of self-defense. The
exhibition will teach the spectators
the value of proper physical training
and spur them to emulate the var-
ious manly virtues displayed in the
contest itself.
. Q. Which view is correct
A. What do you think?
Q. What have you learned about
the comet?
A. So far as I have been able to
gather, it is a tailless body with from
one to four tails. The comet itself
is bright red or yellow. The tail, if
there is one, is 100,000,000,000 mites
long and is full of poisonous gases
which will destroy all life upon the
earth if they are really present in the
tail. The comet can not affect the
weather, high prices, baldness or the
Giants' pennant chances, but, on the
other hand, it may upset aeroplanes,
baby carriages and Republican ma-
jorities. The comet, tea been drop-
ping in upon us eve it seventy-five
years for many centuries, which
shows how hard it is to break a habit
once formed.
Q. Is that all you have learned
about our celestial motor star?
A. Isn’t It enough?
Q. What is Colonel Roosevelt do-
ing in Europe?
A. What is he doing?—or do you
mean what is he not doing?
Q. Answer either question.
A. So far as careful reading en-
ables me to judge, Colonel Roosevelt
is everywhere received as a military
civilian or a civilian colonel. He ad-
dresses enthusiastic audiences wihcli
receive his spea^ies coldly, and lis-
ten with marked attention while they
yawn and sleep., His royal-hosts are
genuinely glad to meet him, but
heartily wish that he had gone
straight hime from the haunts of the
cruel crocodile and idyllic ibis. Col-

citizen Is universally recognized by
according him royal honors. To
avoid being recognized by the crowds
the colonel wears a khaki coat and a
rough rider hat.
Q. What is the situation in base-
ball?
A. The American League is Vice-
President Sherman ahead of the Na-
tional.
Q. Why are the members of the
cabinet wearing such grouchy expres-
sions in these days of peace
A. They are laboring under a tre-
mendous strain. They are trying to
fix batting averages in their over-
worked brains. They are trying to
invent an automatic smile that will
light up their maps when they hear
the name of Matty or some other ce-
lebrity of the diamond. This is all
very bSrd upon quiet men who don’t
know first base from Monte Carlo.
But they can take it out by openly
despising lawn tennis, the game in
which their .predecessors had to ap-
pear absorbed.
