It might be Interesting TO some readers
TO learn of the difficulties and struggles
in establishing business of this kind,
in a locality where cut users, advertisers,
have been in the habit of using the ready
made. hit and miss trash furnished by
eastern self-styled experts. Some four
or FIVE years ago an attempt was made
70 establish photo engraving concern,
equipped for half-tone, zinc etching and
all kinds of engraving. The owners and
promoters were amateurs and the
venture soon proved a failure, and the
place was sold several times to different
parties. but was really a practice or ex-
perimenting plant until Mccoy Brothers,
practical artists and engravers, pur-
chased the plant little over year
ago O. J. Mccoy, a man of broad expert
ence and as much grit as a sand-hill,
bought the plant and added 60 its equip

who bought a half interest and changed
The name from the Photo Engraving Co.
TO the Wichita Engraving co. With all
their past experience and push, the build
ing up process was slow. The iEeficiency
and inferior work Of the old concern re-
acted on the new firm, and made it diff
cult to gain the confidence of advertisers
and overcome this injustice Mccoy
Brothers kept everlastingly at It, did
strictly flrst-class work, gave prompt and
careful attention to every detail of their
work, have continued to add new equip
meut until now they have a modern up
to-date plant and are doing the work for
q number of the largest advertisers and
hundreds Of concerns throughout the
southwest. Besides making zinc etchings
for newspaper advertising, they make
half-tones for catalogues, are at present
doing most OF the work for number Of
theatrical stars. and the majority of the
work for two circuses. They are well
known and enjoy fine business, draw
ing trade from Kansas. Arkansas Okla

Wickenburg dispatch says: The ex-

Hatfield discovery above town some
four miles. Prospectors have begun to
arrive in droves and the entire sur.
rounding country will soon be located.
There is scarcely a doubt that the
source of the placer gold that has been
found in this region ever since the
prospector first began to "pan" the
country, has been found. The prop

past three or four months till the Sc

The river Nile has been damned and
a line of railway now crosses the river
on the stone structure. To dam this
great waterway was at one time con
sidered impossible, but the thing has
been done. 1t is the same thing with
the Colorado river. People believe
that dam across this river is not with
in the possibilities of the future, but
the day is coming when the river will
be damned and the impounded water
be used to create power to irrigate a
vast part of the waterless domain of
Arizona.

the mine and surrounding country Is
being carefully inspected with the re-
suit that it is pronounced real bonan-
"a. The extent of the find and its rich
ness which may be tested by anyone by
taking ore from the dump, excites the
greatest surprise among men who nave
been familiar with the locality Tor
years, who have tramped over 1t time
and again without suspecting the truth.
The proprietors refuse to fix price on
the source of their wealth. Its con-
venience to the Hassayampa and to the
railroad add to its value though II
found anywhere in Arizona it would
command transportation and every
thing else necessary to its working.

its old time prestige by this new addi'

The Gun Club Tournament.

Last Saturday the members of the
Needles, Marvel, Jerome and Williams
gun clubs arrived in Kingman and at
once prepared for the shoot at the
grounds of the club in the east part Of
town. The wind both Saturday and
Sunday was blowing a gale aud the
movements of the birds when released
from the traps was very cratic. Con-
sidering the weather the individual
scores were excellent, many making
straight ten and fifteen birds. The
event of the shoot, of course, was the
contest for the Kingman medal, which
the Kingman club won on the two
previous Interstate shoots. In the
Saturday shoot Mrs. j. @. Phelan, of
the Williams club, made an excellent
score and carried off several purses.
