Mohave County miner. [volume] (Mineral Park, A.T. [Ariz.]) 1882-1918, 1906-03-24

Mrs. H. G. Hebron came in from
Los Angeles last week Friday and
visited with her husband prior to his
departure to the Copper Prince mine,
on Bill Williams Fork. She departed
to her home again Sunday evening.
Col. Hebron has gone to the mines
and is to push work on the property
with all possible energy. A big
holster is to be put in, the shaft widen
ed to three compartment and the pro-
perty exploited to a depth of 500 feet.
The mine is said to be one of the best
properties in the territory, so far as
opened up.

Al James was in Kingman a few
days ago, having returned from visit
to the lead mines southwest of Needles.
He reported that the first discovery
had shaft down thirty feet and that
the ore body had opened to three feet
of good lead. 1t was one of the best
shOwings he had seen in some time.
The ore was heavy galena, carrying a
small amount of silver. Other claims
were being discovered and much work
was being done in the camp.

Ore is being hauled to the Pyramid
mill from the Boulevard mine and
the plant is soon to be put in commits
sion. AT the Katherine mine are many
hundreds of tons of low grade gold ore
that will be milled, while the richer
ore from the Sheeptrail group will be
handled by other methods. The Boule-
ward is said to be looking fine and
much ore is being produced.

County Convention June %.

In this issue appears the call for the
republican county convention to select
delegates to the state convention,
which will be held one week from
next Saturday, June 23d.
1t was the hope of some of the mem.
bers of the committee that the conven.
ton might not be until July, when
the question of the governorshiI
would be practically decided, but in
view of the fact that that would be
busy time for the farmers, it has
been thought best to call it before the
end of June.
The committee unanimously recon.
mends that all caucuses in the county
be held on Thursday, June 2lst. The
reason for this is to prevent the call
ing of snap caucuses, and so that il
may be absolutely fair for all. We
hope that the township and ward com.
mitteemen will call the caucuses at
once for that date

There is not square of roof left on

pieces, and another barn 30x5o is in
the same condition. The roof was

buildings when he saw the storm
coming and went to the house. After
the storm they found the team thirty
rods north of the house in the dense
timber, without scratch. The cy-
clone had picked them up and set
them down there without injury.
A cream gatherer also rushed his
team into the Torsen farm yard, and
jumping from the wagon, grabbed
about the roots of tree, which the
storm pulled out by the roots and left
him there. The team ran to Nels Lar
sens on the gallop before the storm
struck them, and did not spill drop
of cream. There are many similar
stories of the storms freaks.
Besides the great loss to buildings
and machinery the loss of fine timber
is large item, also orchards, shade
trees many years old, fences, etc., SO
that it is difficult to estimate the loss,
but the most conservative who have
been over the path OF the storm place
it at a total of 800, 600. While for
tunately there was no loss of life,
either of persons or stock, and the
storm came at time when it did no
damage to crops, it was nevertheless,
the most disastrous in the history of
the county.
Only four who suffered loss, Torsen,
Larsen and son and Fawcett, had
partial insurance, all in the Iowa
Mutual Tornado Insurance Co., of
Des Moines.

James Thomas Injured at West Union.

The pleasure of the NJ w. A. picnic
at West Union yesterday was marred
for number of DEBORAH people by a
painful injury which befell Mr.. j. S.
Thomas of this city. With his wife
and daughter and a party of friends
he was standing ON the east side of
the public square when runaway
team of colts came dashing towards,
them. along the sidewalk. All of the
party except Mr. Thomas ran into a
yard and onto a porch to get out OF
the way, but Mr.. Thomas did not get
in in time, and crouched behind a
large double tree, where he supposed
he would be protected. The team ran
into the tree, breaking the tongue OF
the buggy, and swinging around the
tree, the tongue struck him severe
blow just below the groin on the right
side, tearing his flesh badly and
knocking. him some ten feet away.
He was picked up and carried into a
house and doctors called, and after
being dressed was brought home on a
couch. While the accident is PAIN
full one. it is exceedingly fortunate
that he escaped with his life.

RACE MEET JUNE 1921.
Best Races Ever Seen In DEBORAH Next
Week. Echo Jr. and Many Other
Fast Horses Entered.

The races this year bid fair to excel
anything ever seen in this part of the
country. The management have
succeeded in getting an aggregation
of horses the equal of which has sell
dom been seen on half mile track.
Horses are here from far-off Califor-
MIA, from Arizona, Nebraska, Illinois.
Wisconsin, Missouri, and all the
neighboring states.
Good weather is all that is needed
to insure the success of the meeting.
The DEBORAH Merchants Band will
furnish music each day and the
capacity of the grounds should be
taxed to contain the crowds.
Every stall is taken, and a special
horse train will be used to convey the
caravan from Cedar Rapids. which is
the preceding town in the circuit, to
DEBORAH.
1t is no exaggeration to say that
the most famous men and horses in the
horse world will be here next week.
The management has secured the ser.
vices of Col. George d. Gould OF
Toledo, Ohio, as starting judge. who
is recognized as one of the leading men
in his line of work in America.
The races should be given generous
support as they are gotten up with nc
idea of making money but merely to
provide entertainment for the public
and make things lively in town.
A long list of entries has been re.
ceived, as may be seen by reading the
large advertisement of the race meet
| ing in this issue.

Regarded Serious Error.
According to Buddhism" said the
bishop. .'it is a serious error to seek God
outside of the life. outside of this universe.
1t is living right among ourselves and d.
recting the course OF things according to
its innate destiny. Buddhists refuse to cast
their lot with the Pantheists, so-calleo
God is an imminent reality. but he Is
greater than the totality of things.
The practical faith of Buddhism the
speaker summed up this: 1t is to cease
from wrongdoing. to promote goodness and
to enlighten the ignorant Buddhlstic
ethics, he said, is the simplest thing TO
practice in the world.
1t has nothing mysterious, nothing super
stitious, nothing idolatrous nothing super
natural, about it. Stop doing wrong which
is against the reason of things: do what
ever is good which advances the course OF
reason in this life: finally help those VINO
are behind and weary of life TO reaifze en-
Nghtenment And this, said he, Is
Buddhism in a nutshell.

While reinforced concrete has been
