 Jerome Minins News: There is an occasional Associated Press dispatch goes out from Prescott stating that from reliable authority" it is learned that the United Verde Copper com pany's mines have been sold to the copper syndicate, and that they would be shut down. Every time one of those dispatches goes out they bring numerous letters of inquiry to our mer- chants and othe S regarding the truth of the news. Such reports do a great injury to the camp, and as there has never been the slightest reason in the world for any one to imagine that the mines were being negotiated for, it would seem that the correspondent had sent out the report through pure ma iciousness. Jerome has "come to stay" and those fiction write cannot keep her down.
 A brute who refuses to give his name was arrested by Justice John stone yesterday evening.

There being no po- lice officer near the justice separated the couple and placed the man under arrest. The fellow disputed the right of the justice ito arrest him and threat ened to annihilate the judge with his political pull. Despite the fellows braggadocio the justice with the as- sistance of a bystander dragged the woman beater to the county jail. He will be given hearing this morning.

The claims are located at the old Hoffman camp, Twin Buttes, six miles westerly from J. K. Browns ranch, and are owned by the John Ellis company. One group of seven claims and another of eight are owned by Jim Sheridan, A. c. Malin and Philip Constance, the county sur veyor. Messrs. Constance and Sheri- dan will leave in the morning and make complete survey of the entire group. A group known as the Ellis is already under bond for several thou sand dollars.
