GOAT AND CATTLE RAISERS ALL HEAD IT * IF YOU WANT COUNTRY TRADE ADVERTISE IN THE HOME TOWN PAPER. Saturday, Jan. 3, 1920. RICH HILL MINER MAKES $1,128 FIND Frank Trompas Finds Another Eroded Ledge Deposit On Top of the Mountain. Special Correspondence. Frank Trompas who took S3O in gold from two wheelbarrow loads of dirt on top of old Rich Hill a few weeks ago is into the paystreak again, having taken $7,128 from a new deposit in six weeks. Fifty years ago that would not have been considered phenomenal as the old hill has a record production of over $3,- 000,000 in placer g Id but at present nearly ail the “easy places” have been worked out Now it requires labor and the average placer miner and labor don’t hitch veiy well, but Trompas is not of that kind To recuperate a ittle he has left a watchman at his works and gone to Pnoenix to “rest up” a few days. Trompas estimates his new dis covery to average, after taking out the coarse gold, to run $1.25 per yard. He was fortunate in securing the ground, as practically ali of that on top and on both sides and far below Rich Hill is located, but some “deals” are pending and this new strike will sure stimulate safes on new work. On the Rich Hill Development Cwm pany property. Geo. Myers is doing con siderable work in preparing to “getting things going.” George says he is in shape to talk business to any one inter ested. They have a good strong ledge from top to bottom of their 130 foot shaft which shows good values in gold in the sulphide and lead, as well as free gold. He is bothered some with 300 gallons of water per day in the shaft, but having a whim intends to go down. Louis Kroeber is back again on his j property for the winter. He is situa ted parellel to the Octave which has a record production of millions and only partially prospected; one shaft down 2,000 feet and other shallow workings, but now in fine shape for production when they get their new mill installa tions. Our old friend C. B. Hosford is back for the winter and is about finished on badly needed road repair. He is going after some of the yellow metal, too, probably on his placer ground, which is situated below the Johnson Mine down Weaver Creek. “Hornspoon” Octave, Ariz. Dec. 30, 1919. j Joyous Home Town Printers. The Chandler Arizonan is strong for home tiade. It believes in buying at home and, like ourselves stands ready to boost for home merchants, home manufactures of all kinds. It recog nises the consistency of applying this rule in beualf of the home town printer as well as other enterprises. In home trade campaigns the printer is seldom considered —generally forgotten. Mer chants nowadays get their counter tabs from big city houses that put. them up by the million at a rate that wouldn’t buy salt for the home printers family; the jjaper bags and wrapping paper is the donation of some big shirtwaist or shoe house to advertise the merits of tail-less shirts or borealis shoes with the resident agent’s business address printed on the outside free. Hisenvel opes with ready printed address and stamps are bought from Uncle Sam who has “a corner” on the product that wouldn’t leave margin enough to buy milk for the poor printer’s cat. But he seems to he the same good fellow, al ways boosting for the town schools and churches, living and existing someway, the Lord knows how. When the joyous home printer with patches growing larger on his anatomy, at last suggests “job printing” he gets the old time greeting “Next year, old man; and may it bring you abundant prosperity.” No one brings prosperity to the country printer nowadays. He has to get out and dig for it. These are the days when ready print costs 79 cents a quire or 26 cents a pound, with 6 cents alb express and war tax. The average country printer has a fat op portunity of getting prosperous. Still he’s ever ready to carry on the “you tickle me and I’ll tickle you game” and gets by in the hope that some clay the townsfold will get all their printing done at home.

Count de Suchet had carried in his heart for many years a poig nant grief. In his youth he had loved and married Mimi, a beautiful actress; the count, furious at the misalli ance, demanded that he give up the dancer; this the youth refused to do, and was promptly disown ed. The aged nobleman sought out the girl and convinced her that by staying with his son she was ruining the man she loved. Brok en-hearted, Mimi, first placing her baby with an old couple, com mitted suicide. The young count, wild with grief, searched for the child, but never found her. Such was the story, told years later by the still sorrowing fa ther, now grown old, to his friend Henri Dutray, an artist. Dutray, a friend in name only, resolved to find a girl to impersonate the lost daughter, marry her and so insure himself an income for life. In the mean time Jeanne, a fiery and beautiful girl of seven teen, known to the Latin Quar ter as the Parisian Tigress, is in the clutches of an Apache named Jacque, and is forced to dance nightly in the cases. Here an old roue sees her and bargains with Jacque for her. To escape this new horror Jeanne runs a way and by chance finds shelter in the studio of Henri Dutray. The idea comes to him that she is the very girl to play the part of the daughter so he tells her of i %s I! Consolidated Arizona Smelting Co.

She protests but he wins her consent by threatening to return her to Jacque. Jeanne is received by the age ing count with open arms and, until his death, which occurs soon after, he lives in happiness with his new-found daughter. She meets and falls in love with Al bert Chauroy, a young Parisian aristocrat, and he with her, but the knowledge of her false posi tion keeps her from accepting his attentions. Jacque discovers Jeanne’s abode and goes to her to demand money and also to steal the family jew els. While ransacking the safe he finds the picture of Mimi and realizes that Jeanne is the real daughter of the count. At this point he is discovered by the ser vants and in the scuffle which ensues Jacque is shot. With his dying breath he reveals Jeanne’s indentity, thereby establishing her position in the eyes of the world. With the cloud lifted from her life the girl is free to accept the love offered her by Albert and so the little waif of the gutter at last finds love and happiness. To Our Old Standbys.
