Was Rank SWindIe.

The exhibition given last evening at Odd Fellows hall was one of the rankest swindles ever perpetrated upon an unsuspecting people. Judg- ing by the announcement which the show people had made and had caused to be made a good show was expected and there was a large audience. The entertainment did not possess one single redeeming feature. The appa- ratus used was operated by gas instead of electricity and was an old fashioned broken down affair which would not work, and if it did occasionally give symptoms of performing what was wanted of it, only threw a picture about three feet square and so indis- tinct that the audience could not even guess as to what it was intended for. Many of the slides did not fit the machine, and only showed half of the picture. The whole thing looked as though pictures and machine had been scraped out of some junk shop. Pan demonium reigned in the hall from start to finish as the boys kept yelling and hooting at the operators, and the miserable quality of the show was only surpassed by the more miserable conduct of many of those present. While it must be admitted that there was great provocation for demonstra- tion against the fakirs, such conduct as many were guilty of was inexcus- able, no matter how great the provo cation. An action for obtaining money under false prctenses could be made to stick against he show peo- nIa

Smoked HOp-Now Dead.

A few days ago the sheriff's office arrested a Mexican by the name of Jose Amarillas, on telephone instruc- ton from the officers at Jerome, and last Saturday the officers telephoned that his fine had been paid and re- quested that he be discharged which was done. He became so elated over his escape from jail that he imme- diately began to celebrate the event He drank all kinds of mixtures until they lost their charm for him when he went down to Chinatown and pur- chased s1 worth Of hop and went. up to little shack on south Granite street which is used for that purpose, and proceeded to invoke the bliss of a hop dream. The dream seemed pretty good to him and he kept it up until he got so much that it caused heart failure and he died this morn ing about ten o'clock.
 The remains were taken charge by Undertaken Logan and his relatives in Jerome were notified by telephone and started at once for Prescott and will arrive here tonight. He was 22 years of age and leaves a father, mother and several brothers and sisters.

JAMES r. SALTER PASSES AWAY AbSCeSS on the Liver
 the Cause. Was a Prominent Wool Dealer on the Eastern Markets-BOdy
 Shipped Home.

James F. Salter, one of the best known wool buyers in the western market, passed away at the Mercy hos pital in this city Saturday night about eleven o'clock. The cause of his death was the formation of an abcess on his liver. About two weeks ago, while at Congress Junction, MT. Salter had climbed upon a cattle chute to wait for some cattle to be loaded before bidding on some wool that was to be loaded onto the cars. In climbing down from the chute he in some manner slipped and wrenched himself very badly. He came to Prescott the next day and while he still felt quite sore from the wrench thought nothA ing of it. After being here a couple of days he was taken very bad and called a physician. The symptoms of case scanned to be those of portion its, and after few days he was taken to the Mercy hospital where the phys icians determined to operate on him. The operations was performed. Friday and revealed a1 abscess on the liver as we'll as peritonitis. Drs. Sawyer and Thomson performed the opera tion and the patient seemed to rally from the operation in good shape but a turn for the bad took place Satur- day evening and he died in few hours.
 Mrs. Salter arrived from their home in Denver the first of last week and had been almost constantly at his bed side since her arrival and was with him at the time of his death. Every thing that could be done for >the sufferer was done but human skill and loving care could not ward off the grim reaper.
 Mir. Salter represented the well known wool firm of Whitman, Earns worth $ Thayer, of Boston. He had for several years before removing to Denver lived in Boston and New York and be and his two brothers, Charles and Richard Sslter, were among the best known wool buyers for the eastern markets.
 The deceased was B years of age and leaves besides his sorrowing wife, several brothers and sisters who reside in the east.
 The remains were shipped to Denver this morning by H. NJ. Maus & Co.,, and were accompanied by the widow and T. B. Trumbull, who represents the same firm that MT. Salter did, and who arrived here only a few hours be- fore the latter's death. One of the brothers will meet them at Denver and it is probable that the remains will then be taken to Boston for inter- mant

The law prescribes the modus oper-
 andi, whereby such objects may be
 accomplished, the initial step being
 the circulation of a petition asking
 that an election be called for the pur-
 pose desired. All members, including
 Mir. Andrews, say that if the people
 of West Prescott desire a school house and proceed with a petition as re- quired by law that upon its reception
 by the board it will have due consid- eration and proper action.
 la fact there would be no alterna tive for the board under the law other than to do this, and as stated tbey have no authority under the law to proceed to the erection of a school house in West Prescott or other place except upon a petition followed up subsequently, by an election.
 If the majority of the voters of Prescott school district are in favor of a school in West Prescott, which it must be admitted is needed for the of the smaller schol- ars, their purpose cannot be thwarted by the trustees, if all opposed it, which all deny.
 Another thing which has been charged against the trustees and which is being used in an attempt to defeat MT. Andrews is that they refuse to show the books, showing the ex- penditures one the new school house. Of course such a charge as this is only intended to deceive the ignorant or is made by those ignorant of the way the business of the trustees is per formed. The trustees could not cover this from the inspection of the public if they wanted to. Before a dollar of school moneys can be paid out, an itemized voucher specifying for what purpose it is claimed must be made out by the board and be approved by them. It then goes to the superintend- ent of schools, and must also be ap- proved by him when he issues a war rant on the county treasurer. These itemized vouchers are kept on file in the office of the superintendent and any citizen who desires to do so can have the privilege of inspecting them. As the building fund is considered as special school fund these vouchers are all kept separate from the other school expenses.

Our Schools Discussed.

At a special meeting of the school trustees last evening some matters pertaining to the schools were dis cussed in an informal manner At tention was directed to reports in cir culstion to the effect that some mem bers of the board, and particularly MT. Andrews, who is candidate for reelection, are opposed to establishing a school for the primary grade in West Prescott. Mir. Andrews referred to the law on the subject. showing that the board has no authority whatever to build new school houses or change the location of buildings except such authority and power are given them by citizens of the school district.

his already splendid equipment. The
 apparatus is in the shape of a fine
 marble switch board, with great num-
 Der of attachments for almost any
 dental operation. One of these at
 tachments is hot air blower. There is
 tank filled with compressed air at
 tached to the board and this air is
 heated by the electricity as it passed through the attachment. This can be used to advantage in a number of
 ways. Another attachment is for spraying an anteseptic on parts that are to be operated upon. Also for treating the gums. Still another attachment is a small electric mirror which enables the operator to see thu ougb a tooth almost like a piece of glass, and determine at a glance whether the nerve is dead or if there is any decayed or other foreign sub stance in the nerve channel. This is one of the most useful things ever invented for the use of dentist. An other useful attachment is root canal drier which not only enables the operator to almost instantly thorough ly dry the tooth before filling but also enables him to do certain work in filling much quicker and better.
 Besides the above there is call bell, hot water pump, faradic coil, attachment for propelling the electric engine for drilling on the tooth or in the gold filling. etc., it one of the the greatest com binations ever offered in the practice of dentistry. Anyone interested will be welcome to call and see the little wonder and Dr. Blain will sbe pleased to show its wonderful workings.

 The Herald, of Ell Paso, contains
 the following concerning a mining
 property near that city: ''The Jarilla
 camp will prove one of the richest
 on the continent" declares Mir. Wilk-
 inson, one of the principal owners,
 who is here from Philadelphia. "It
 will prove as rich in gold as the Yukon
 fields and it is right here at Fl Paso and means much to that city. We are not talking for an advertisement, for
 none of our stock is for sale, but the gold is there and we are ready to spend all the money necessary to de- velop it. Within year we will have a smelter in operation. If the Jarilla Smelling and Refining company erects a smelter of sufficient capacity for the camp, then we will have our ores treated at that plant, but if not we will erect our own shelter. The for nation in our mines is peculiar and lucT6 IS Oull Ouc OlncI uIHo III IHo world like it, and that is the United Verde. The United Verde has copper in a quartz formation, with gold hangings, and that is exactly the for nation in our mine. We have never had an assay made for the reason that we did not care to put any stock on the market, and we knew that the ore was rich enough to pay us to mine it as soon as we were ready. We are down 265 feet and the gold runs at least an ounce and a quarter to the ton. There is DO question but that we have a ledge of it and it will pay us immensely. We simply make our discovery public that Ell Paso may know what to expect from this camp, having no other motive in sight. She can expect much, for it is rich in gold and we will develop it at once. There will be no more delays-we have everything ready to begin work and we will spend all the money that is necessary.

Gold mining has become an import ant industry in Korea within the last six years; the region known to con- tain the precious metal extends from the hills bordering south bank of the
 Yalu and reaches far into Korea, at least to Gwendoline, for example,
 which is 250 miles south of the Yulu. Two companies-the Oriental Consoli- dated and the British and Korean-are in active operation. the former is an American concession and has a mill of 240 stamps near Anju, while the latter possesses a 20-stamp mill and cyanide plant at Gwendoline. These are the only undertaking producing gold at the present time. Copper is mined by the natives at several places and household utensils are made from it, but no foreigners are engaged in copper mining. Coal of medium quality is known to exist at tidewa- ter. The Japanese are fully aware of the mineral resources of the region over which they now claim a protect crate and it is likely enough that they will have a good deal to say in re- gard to the granting of further con sessions to foreigners. "Korea for the Japanese' will be the dominant cry, should the war end favorably to Ja- pan, and to such a sentiment the losses incurred by war arising from a quarrel over the suzerainty of Korea will give added force.

Ex-Governor Louis Wolfley and Nj. E. SpaSlding returned last night from visit to the properties of the Climax Gold Mining company at Quartz mountain, and report good progress being made in the tunnel. Another thing that was very satisfac- tory to them was the increase of the water supply in the tunnel. Since the first of this month the daily pro- duct of water has been increased about 1000 gallons, and if this continues to increase as there is every indication to believe it will, it will not be long until the supply will be sufficient for mill purposes without piping water to the property, as has been contem- plated

The Journal Miner is informed that the work which has been done at the Buffalo. Arizona Gold Mining com- pany's properties has been very satis- factory so far. A cross cut was run at depth of seventy five feet and the ore vein was struck within a few feet of where it was expected it would be and demonstrated that the vein pitches to the west. 4 drift is now being run on the vein toward the west and there is a fine showing of ore. The work on the property will be wig orously prosecuted. The company seems to have a very good chance to develop good mine. There are sev- eral natural advantages in favor of the Buffalo-Arizona, among them be- ing the presence of plenty of timber and water. The only thing now to de- termine is the presence of abundance of ore and there is every indication that this will be developed, and with conservative and proper management the property will soon come to the front.
