MOHAVES NEW ROAD
Work on the Line From Hancock to
 inc White Hills About to Begin.

Hon. F. T. Aspinwall left last night for Kingman. His visi. is in connec- tion with the new railroad which is going to be built from Hancock to the White Hills, a distance of sixty-five miles. This read is pet project Of Mir Aspinwalls. He is the original promoter and a year ago last July filed intention under the last tax exemption law. He also obtained val uable concessions, but on account Of an inability to interest capital in the en- terprise at that time it was tempo rarily abandoned It was slbse- quently revived by Professor T. H. B.. Comstock, who has secur5d the CO operation cf MT. E. c. McCCnnico, an eastern capitalist, and others. MT. AspinwaII turned over his rights and concessions 10 the new management, which has just summoned him to ap- pear at Kingman in person.
 The survey for the road is almost finished under the direction of Pro fessor Comsto,k and a contract for construction has been closed with Q Chicago firm. Work will be begun by December and under the contract the road must be finished as far as Chlo- ride by June of next year. Chloride is about half way between Hancock and White Fills.
 Kingman under an aIrang ngeme mt with the Santa Fe Pacific will really be the southern terminus ins; cad Of Han cock, ten miles west. From Hancock the traffic Of the new line will be car ried ever the Santa Fe Paciffc track This arrangement has probably been made on account Of the superior t1F- minal facilities alt Kingman. where the round-house and shcFs will likely be established.
 The road will penetrate enc of the richest, if net the very richest and

PRESCOTT AND EASTERN.
A Bright Outlook for Business for
 the New Road.

It was matter of suprisa and aston ishment to very many of the Mayer ex- cursfonists to witness the effect which the building Of the Prescott & Eastern railroad had already produced on in dustrial affairs in that section, says ahe Jcurnal-Miner. One gentleman who formerly lived in that section but who had not been there fer several years was particularly impressed with the change which was noticeable.
 Only about month ago the writer of this had gone 5o the end of the track when Huron consisted of one house and a tent. Now there is quite a re- spectable little village of tents, while eight CT ten wooden buildings have been built and several others are un- der construction.
 The railroad has very neat little depot building almost completed at this place, tco, and this place promises to become the most important on the line of the road
 In addition to the Huron group of mines which is located within a stones throw of the railroad and which are being worked under bond by E. B. Gage and F. M. Murphy, there are Q number of other very promising prop critics in the immediate vicinity which will be worked Cn a larger scale than ever before and which will furnish no inccnsideTable traffic for the new read.
 The McCabe, Little Jessie, and other Chaparral properties are located with in a very few miles of this station, while just beyond are the Lottie, Hen rietta5 Commercial Mining company's properties as well as numerous ether smaller cnes
 Prcspectors are quite numerous On the hills and other properties equal to any that have been found are reason ably sue to be discovered as the coun- try has never been thoroughly pres pected and it IS one of the finest min eral belts in the territory.
 Placer mining is also being carried cn to some sxtent along Big Bug creek and with good success to those en- gagged in it
 At Mayer the same activity is notice able. The railroad company has a force of men at work there grading for a large warehouse and depot A daily stage line has already been put on be- tween there and Crowned King, while the entire Low=r Agua Fria, Black Canyon and Big Bug country are trib- utary to that point and che traffic both w2gs -waiH be transferred at that place.
 The talk is that the Big Bug onyx quarries will also be started up again within a few months, under the impe- tus given by the construction of the railroad. They have lain idle now for over a year and color is given to their

AN APPROPRIATED NAME.
A Curious Change of inc prObafe
 Court Records Yesterday.

A name cannot be changed at will without giving proper nctice to the community through the legislature CT the courts. Last Tuesday couple ap- piled to Probate Judge Grouse for a marriage license The groom said the brides name was "Elizabeth," and spelled it "Elizebeth," which he in sisted was right if not orthodox. The bride subsequently wroite it 'Elizy- beth," and Justice Johnstone, who re- fused to sacrifice good usage to or biographical whims returned it to the probate court Elizabeth"
 This curious commingling of "e's." "a's" and "y's" did not impair the va ldity of the marriage license in any way and the matter would have been allowed to rest, but for the father of the bride, who came into court yes terday and demanded with some indig- nation 8 more radical amendment of the papers in the case. His daugh- ter's name, he said, was not Eliza beth' nor "Elizebeth" nor "Elizybeth," ," but Jennie D. His wife's name was Elizabeth and the record as it stood in probate court put her in the light of bigamous person. He threatened if the change he requested was not made, to institute trouble fer his daughter or somebody else.
 Judge Grouse said he was not au- thoriz5d to juggle with peoples namss. and declined to correct the errcr. Later in the day beth the father and mother of the bride called on him. They said they had tried to induce their daugh ter to come to court ard have the rec ord fixed, but she refused to do sJ. They proved by a boo-l CT the Child's Aid society in which she had been in sured for the benefit Of her mother. that her name at ore time Tad been Jennie D." The court was anxious to have the thing strai ghtened out and the~bT was sent for. She came in and consented to resume her own name, which she admitted was Jennie D." In explanation of her assump- ton of Elizabeth" she said that was her sisters name. Her sister was dead and the bride had decided to ap propriate the name as an inheritance. partly to perpetuate it and partly be- cause she liked it better than her own. With her consent Elizabeth" was changed to Jennie D." on all papers relating to the marriage.

most extensive mining area in the tar- ritoFy. Beside the objective region. White Hills, there are the Chloride and Mineral Park districts. to say nothing Of scores Of camps within easy access to the routs. Notwithstanding ex- traordinary freight charges. SIP q ton from Whits Hills and propcTtionate rates from nearer districts. there has been a wonderful development of the mineral resources. After the railroad is cpaned the freight rate from White Hills will hardly exceed $2.50 a ton.

NEW YORK, Nov 14.-The worlds snake
show opened tonight at the Grand Cen
trail Palace 1t hardly seems possible that
the snake show will ever gain the popularity
of the "hoss show but there were many
who deserted the equine display for the
reptilian tonight. The fact that the horse
show opened on the same night did not seem
to deter the management from starting the
exhibition of reptiles. However, most of
the visitors tonight were women and Scien-
fists. Many of the star rattlers and con-
strictors were late in arriving There were
several white boas. which Charles Higbee,
an artist. uses for models in designing
curves for poster pictures. These poster
snakes were much admired and Mr.. Higbee
was frequently asked to show how the SER
pentine curve was adapted TO the uses OF
art. AS many as could crowd around the
case listened to the artists description of
his models. There was portion OF the ex-
hibits given to sections of preserved snakes.
Most Of the snakes common to New Jersey
and New York are on view.

TWO PAPAL DEGREES.
Book Placed Under Ban-Priests May
Ohiciate at Masonic Funerals.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 14.-Mgr. Martineli,
the delegate apostolic, has just received
from Rome two important DEGREES bearing
directly on the church in this country. The
first is from the congregation of the index,
a branch of the once powerful and dreaded
inquistion or holy office, and states that
the book Monks and Their Decline" by
Rev. George Zurcher, pastor of St. Joseph S
Church. Buffalo, N Y, has been placed UNI
der the ban of the church and the author
is in danger of accommodation unless he
retracts his errors.
The second refers to the funeral services
of Roman Catholics who have Joined Ma
sonic orders, and is by far the most liberal
utterance which Rome has yet made on this
subject. The latter decree allows priest
to officiate and permits the interment 10 pc
in consecrated ground provided the deceased
was not openly hostile to the church ana
expressed at some time even II indirectly,
a willingness to become. reconciled to his
former faith. This decree will end a long
standing grievance concerning the refusal
of some priests to allow Roman Catholic
ceremonies at the burial of those who had
become affiliated with the prescribed orders,
while others gave the full rites OF the
church under similar circumstance.
Father Zurchers Monks and Their De-
cline" is the first book written by an Amer
lean to fall under the ban of the index. 1t
has been an ecclesastic sensation for the
last three months, not only in this country
but also in Europe. The decadence of Spain
and of all the Latin countries is attributed
by Father Zurcher to the influence and
power of the monks, and he hints that the
United States should suppress all the orders
if it hopes to preserve law and order in its
new Spanish possessions. Father Zurcher Is
still in charge of his parish In Buffalo. He
is an Alsation by birth but has lived in
New York for many years. He Is conSid-
cred a brilliant man. He has always been
champion of the liberal school of American
Catholicism
