PROSPECTORS FOR WATER
Discover Placer Gold Near Needles flea ded for kIlnefeIter Canyon
 Excitement Intense

Probably the greatest placer excite mia, is at high pitch this week. All week every conveyance and mode of transportation has been used by eager people on their way to Klinefelter can yOn. This canyon is located ten miles west of Needles. The w. H. Orr com pany has been developing water in this canyon for the past eight months. The pipes driven to find bed rock came up with coarse gold. Further investi- gation demonstrated quantities of placer gold, as high as $22 being taken from three buckets of the gravel taken from the pipe brought from depth of probably twenty-five feet below the surface.
 A pile dam is being put in by the Orr company for the purpose of dam ming the underflow of water and occas- sionally it becomes necessary to pull a pile after having driven it some dis tance. One was pulled the other day and a dollars worth of coarse gold was scraped from the lower end of the pile. The entire wash and adjoining washes have been located for a dis tance of ten miles above and below the original location.
 Excitement is intense and even the old timers who have prospected in and around this same section of country pronounce it the richest ever found in this part of the state. People are coming from all parts of the country. Many are watching their claims day and night for fear of jumpers and much litigation will undoubtedly re- suit from conflicting lines.

This season, how ever, the demand and prices for mutt tons in the eastern part of the country will result in the defection of this spring Arizona movement to some ex- tent. The winter range in that part of the country has been very good, according to reports and on that more than the usual number of fat sheep will be run out. It is said there are 3O,OOO sheep in the vicinity of Mesa that will be moved to the north during April. In the Salt river valley there are said to be 1000 sheep that are in fine flesh and will be trailed north during the month of April and shipped to market via the Santa Fe. Kansas City will get good share of these sheep.

District Court.

District court of CoconinO county will convene on Monday next. The civil docket is light one, ,twenty-eight cases. The cases which will attract the most attention are the cases of Susan Cosgray, guardian, ad litem, Lillie s. McCarty, a minor, vs. the grand lodge, A. O. U. w., of Arizona and New Mexico, and also against the Woodmen of the World. Thos. Arm- strong and E. E. Ellinwood are the attorneys for Mrs. Crosgray, and Baker & Bennett, of Phoenix, are the attorneys for the fraternal societies. John McCarty, the husband of Lillie McCarty, carried insurance policies in these societies. It will be remem- bercd that John McCarty was killed by bear in Miller's Canyon; the in- surance companies claim that McCarty is still alive and refuse to pay the in- surance to the widow, and they claim that they will be able to prove that McCarty is still among the living. The case has considerable interest all over the territory as McCarty was well-known in every part of Arizona, being an old hunter and collector of wild animals, his occupation took him to all sections of the territory.

A most pleasant innovation in the
way Of amusement was afforded by the
excursion on the Tourist Tuesday night
under the auspices Of the College Athletic
Association. The night was perfect one
and the steamer had on board 16l pas
sengers when she left her wharf here for
the run down the river. The feature OF
the evenings trip was the playing oil the
College Orchestra under the direction
of Prot Franklin. The music added ad-
ditional enjoyment to what was inevery
sense of the word delightful excursion
All on board were treated during the run
which was to Ratclifie's and return,
with the greatest consideration by the
officers Of the steamer, and President Car
ter who was aboard, lent his aid also in
this direction. On the steamer ice cream,
cake and sandwiches were served and
the cafe department enjoyed an enor'
nous rush. Altogether the trip was
delightful one and is but forerunner o.
Others on the Tourist.
