Jones was hurt quite seriously. Up to the firtjt of last week the team was in excellent condition, but on Tuesday night Day was taken sick, and on Wednesday night five of the best playiers were under the care of Dr. Fenner. The cause of the sudden sickness was traced to the milk xupA by the mesa hall. With so many odds against the team, nothing more than defeat was expected when tioy left for Phoenix Thursday night.

Would men spend those hturs they; wear out in plots and devices in communion with God, and leave all on Him by venturesome believing they would have more peace and comfort. Joseph Eliot, 1664. One of the greatest trials and miseries ttf this life seems to me to be the absence of a grand spirit to keep the body under control.

Illnesses and grievous afflictions, though they are a trial, I think nothing of, if the soul is strong; for it praisesj God, and sees tat everything comes from His hand. St. Theresa. True peace and rest lie not in outward things. There liveth no man on earth who may always have rest and peace without troubles and crosses.

Wherefore yield thyself willingly to them, and seek only that true peace of the heart which none ican take away from thee, that thou mayfct overcome all assaults. Theo-logia Germanica. HARDSHIPS AND SUFFERING University of California Outplays at Every Point San Francisco, Nov. 9. In a drizzling rain that converted the field into a mass of mud, thfe University of California foot bail team vanquished Stanford university by a score of two to nothing.

Instead, they were outplayed! at every point Never was Berkley's goal in serious danger, while Stanford's territory was repeatedly invaded. Despite the rain, fourteen thousand people witnessedl the game. Both, universities were represented by hun-nieds of and alumni, who kept things lively with rooting for their respective clubs.

Beebe. spent a year in thorough investigations of the property, and am satisfied that, they are the LARGEST AND RICHEST MINERAL-DEPOSITS IN THE WORLD. Judge Barnes, Dr. Ford and Colonel Christy are associated with me in the property. We have capitalized therai and are now arranging to put then in active operation." Mr.

Beebe was asked for a statement of the amount of ore in and its average value, in reply; to which! he said: "I will give yon the expressed opinion of three experienced mining menwho have examined', the mines. The concensus of their opinion placed the amount of ore ins sight in the Chipiona group alone at-from FOUR TO FIVE MILLIONS OF TONS at the average value of $60 per ton-In making the estimate, the distincei taken along the vein is 3,000 have proved the ore in these veins! for a further distance of one and. a-half miles. I am familiar with mir eral veins, having been in practical contact with them for many years, as a miner, and I have never seen or read of any mineral deposits that, inr. my judgment, approaches these.

I dr not like to make comparisons witin other well known mines, for they atS have different characteristics. I am familiar with the ores of the Cieneguita, and knlow that they are seWT-fluxing and carry iron in excess oi' silica, thiereby reducing the usual cost of smelting. The value in silver ot these copper ores being seventy ounces to the ton, and an average uniform gold value make them good mines if there wart no copper at all. The average copper value in these? mines will compare favorably with other well known copper mines," WHY THE MINES WERE ABANDONED. Being asked what caused the ancient Spaniards to cease operations.

Mr. Beebe laughingly said: "The principal reason is that the Indians murdered them and for a century-kept them out of the country. Another reason for leaving such rich bodies of sulphide ores is that they could mt treat such ores in that day. The only ores that could- be made to give up iteir values by their crud appliances and methods were the ox-odized of' free ores in the immediate-top of the veins. THE OLD WORKS showed Several dykes, and or sulphide are standing icut from five to one hundred feet wide, and running into the mountain for some hundred feet.

This ore is very rich, but could profit the ancient miner nothing." Being asked if the company, wouM offer any of the stock to the public, Mr. Beebe replied that the board of directors had that matter in hand, and that he was not prepared to answer the question. He will return in MERE LEGALITIES. Result to the Bandits' Captives by Reason of Frequent Moves. Sofia, Nov.

9. The latest letter received from Miss Stone says that she is exposed to much hardships and suffering, owing to the constant moving of the "band over the Mlla and ravines, notwithstanding the rigors of winter. In consequence of this activity, which has lately been increased -by the Bulgarian troops, the condition )f Madame Tsilka, Miss Stone's companion, is evpn more pitiable, owing to her expected aeouchement. The belief that Miss Stone is concealed in a village Is thus discredited, as is the reported childbirth to Madame Tsilka. Th monastery of Rilo has- been searched by the auhorities, as the prisoners' were reported to be concealed there.

The troops are also searching the neighboring hills. Mr.George Beebe, ot Yerba Buena, in the Sahuaripa district, Sonora, Mexico, in company with his wife, is visiting Judge Barnes, at his home in this city. A Star reporter found Mr. Beebe In the library at the home of Judge Barnes last evening, and obtained from Mm the following interview concerning the mines of the Cieneguita Copper company, of which company Mr. Beebe is the manager: "My visit here," said Mr.

Beebe, "is to consult with the officers and directors of the company regarding the development work now in progress at the mines." In reply to the question as to the extent and character of the property owmJ by the company, Mr. Beebe stated that fnte company owns large tracts of well timbered and well watered lands in the mining district of Sahuaripa, state of Sorvora, upon which are situated the MINES OF THE COMPANY. One particluar tract the Potrero of La Cieneguita embraces an area of five square miles, and contains nine groups of mines, the principal ones being La Chipiona, La Plomosa, La Colorado, La Cargona, Lo9 Ortimuris, Los Tajos, La Tayapa, Phoenix, La Ygiesda, La Prieta, and La Descomtil-goda, all Of these groups lying within a radius of three miles upon the Potrero. The mines are held under the mining laws of the Republic of Mexico governing the location of mines, and embraces over THREE THOUSAND ACRES of mineral ground. The mines are principally copper, carrying high-grade gold and silver res.

Thti is particularly true of the Chipiona, Colorado. Plomosa, Cargona, Los Ortimuris and' La Prieta, the Tajos, Yglesia and Descomulgoda being lead and silver. These mines are known in Mexico as Antiguas, having been worked by the ancients for gold and silver. (, THE LOST TAYAPA. Mr.

Bebe's attention was called to the rumors and various statements setting forth the fact that these mines are the lost Tayapa. In reply Beebe stated that he is absolutely certain that the mines of the Cieneguita are the FAMOUS OLD TAYAPA MINES. To use his own language: "Any pne who is at all familiar with the history of thfe Tayapa mines will almost at first sight declare them to be identical. The stupendous surface workings, the numerous old vasos, lead fimelters, the sOsve pens, built of massive stone, th eimn.ense slag piles, and the evidence of extreme age covering all, is conclusive. The single fact alone, stated in the ancient annals, that the Tayapa mines were located in northwstern Mexico, about fifty leagues from the sea, and near the 'Dos PilareS' (Two Pillars), places the Cieneguita mines in the right locality, and, to clinch the evidence, there, within one and a half miles, stand two huge pillars of porphyry, 300 feet high, which dominate the landscape for fifty; miles In every direction, and are the marks of historical Interest for three centuries past.

"I have owned these mines for DOUGLAS, LACY CO. IN SOUTHERN ARIZONA. Messrs. Douglas, Lacy i Co, have secured the services of Captain J. I).

Burgess as general manager for their Calabasas Copper company, limited. Captain Burgess is a mining engineer and metallurgist of rare skill and ability, and we congratulat riglas, Lacy Co, on their acquisition. Captain Burgess' long experience and practice will bring success to the Calabasas Copper company, limuej. There is already out on the dumps of the Isabel mine alone some 2.0-0 tons of high grade the net profit of which will more than pay for the group of mines, cost and installation of the plant, and all the money DoucIps, Lacy Co. have expended oi; devel opment work.

The mines are being opeuul a systematic manner, by adit fifty feet apart, and' the ores ma oe taken from the great contact vein the vry minimum of cost, and with no expensive hoisti: of ores, jr waste. The smelter is going up at Calabasas as rapiuly as' skill and money can accomplisa and wit'i'u thirty days will be piooucing seven fen tons of copper bullion per day. DISTRICT COURT.

Railway Conductors and Trainmen Refuse to Aid Switchtmen. Denver, Nov. 9. The members of the Order of Railway Conductors and the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen employed on the Denver and Rio Grande railroad, at a meeting held here this afternoon, acting upon the advice of W. G.

Lee, First Grand Master of the trainmen's order, voted unanimously to stand by the railroad company in the strike which has been declared fry the Switchmen's union. Prosecution upon an information filed by the district attorney, instead of upon indictment of a grand jury, is held, in state vs. Tucker 31 L. H. A.

246, to be sufficient to constitute clue process of law. The right of a wife to charge her husband with liability for her necessaries when she is living apart from him by reason of his misconduct is held, in Ott vs. Ileiitall (X. 51 L. It.

A. 226, not to be defeated by the married women's statutes or by the fact that she has financial ability to provide for hepself. A ra.or was judicially held to be a deadly weapon by the court of criminal appeals of Texas in the case of Scott vs. State (62 S. W.

419). The court said that in determining the character of weapon, as to whether it is deadly or not, they were not confined to its character alone, but could look to the manner of its use to ascertain whether or not it was deadly. AVhere a company selling fireworks to a city for a celebration, and furnishing men to fire them, has no charge or control over the people or the place where the fireworks were fifed, the supreme court of Illinois, in the case of Consolidated Fireworks company vs. Kuehl (60 N. E.

87) hold that it is not liable for an injury to a bystander resulting from negligence in such respect. A person charged with crime has a constitutional right to have his case tried by a court having jurisdiction, hold the supreme court of Utah in the case of State vs. Morrey (64 Pac. 764). and his mere silence or failure during the trial to object to the jurisdiction assumed by the court does not constitute a waiver of that right, or prevent him from raising the question at any subsequent stage of the proceedings, or after trial.
