 A telegraphic report from Phenix, dated Wednesday afternoon last, con- veyed the information that Robert Gray had accidentally been struck in the eye with a nail, which had de- stroyed the sight and that he was to- tally blind. MT. Gray has been prcs- pecting in the Wickenburg country and has large group of mines located, | upon which he has been doing the ti- | tie work. His hundreds of friends in this county will hear of his misfor- tune with deep regret. He has re- sided in Mohave county since the early I seventies and is the owner of many valuable mines in the Stockton Hill country of this county. At last re- ports it was stated that there was some hopes of saving small part of the sight of one eye and that the doctors were doing all they could for the in- jured man.
 w. J. Proutt, of San Diego, was in Kingman several days this week at tending to the details of the purchase of the Taggart property. The prop erty transferred consists of the store building, buildings in which Tarr X McComb company has offices, the Con- mercial Hotel, the old Peasley place on Front street and the five vacant lots on Beale street, east of the J. c. Potts residence. The consideration was part cash and an improved fruit ranch in San Diego county, near San Diego. For the present no improve ments will be made in the property with the exception of the repainting and few minor Improvements in the buildings, but later on it is expected that large business house will be erected on the site of the small build- ings on Front street. Mir. Proutt is one of the largest real estate operators in San Diego and also believes that Kingman realty is good investment. He departed to Los Angeles Wednes- day evening to close up some minor details of the deal.

Something for You
 to Think About

In 1897 the Southwest Arkansas Tele- phone Co., started business in Prescott. At that time copper wire cost Il 3-4 cents per pound. Now it is 25 cents. In spite of the increased cost of mater ials and operations the rates are no higher now than then.
 The local toll and farmer line ser vices reaches nearly every part of the county. The long distance service is splendid.
 If you do not now have a telephone in your home or place of business you should have one installed at once.

THE ARMY-NAVY GAME.
The EIsyens Of The Two Institutions Meet
On November 30.

At meeting between representa-
tives of the United States, Military
and Naval Academies and the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania Athletic As
sociation Tuesday afternoon in the
university gymnasium, Philadelphia,
il was decided to play the annual
Army Navy football game on Novem-
ber 80. 1t had previously been de-
cided to play the game in Philadelphia.
Captain Palmer Il. Pierce and Lieu
tenant w. d. Smith represented the
Army Prof. n. NJ. Terry, the Navy,
and Dr. j. William White, the Univer-
sity OF Pennsylvania. Little difii-
Guilty was experienced in fixing the
date for the Saturday following
Thanksgi wing. Both Yves. Point and
Annapolis desired an earlier date as
they did not wish to keep the stu
dents in training for such a long
time. But the university field was
not available for any other date. so
they settled on November 30 as the
day for the contest.
The same arrangement as TO tickets
will be made rs last year. The uni
versity will erect a temporary stand,
thus increasing the seating capacity
TO about 26, 600. West Point will be
allotted one-third the tickets, the Navy
one-third and the university the re-
mainder. The latter's tickets, as
heretofore, will be sold, the proceeds
going to the pension fund for widows
and children of officers of the Army
and Navy.
In few weeks another meeting
will be held when the final ar
rangements will be made as TO the
minor details. At this meeting the
representatives from both West Point
and Annapolis expressed their salts
faction at the results and compli-
mented DR.. White on the successful
management of last years game and
the fact that Philadelphia was the
ideal place for the holding of the
games.

DEATH OF LITTLE GIRL.
Mary Sears Dies of Burns Received About
Her Body Last Week.

Mary Sears, the nine-year old
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Bowie
Sears. of West Annapolis, died this
morning at 6 o'clock from the result
of injuries received by being burned
about week ago.
The little sufferer was patient to the
last, death coming at an early hour
this morning and releasing the little
girl from all suffering. Early last
week Mary Sears was sitting under a
tree near her home at West Annapolis.
The flames from some burning brush
in the field crept up through the grass,
unforeseen by the little girl, and set
her clothing on fire. She was in a
blazs before she realized what had
happened.
The child's mother and brother ran
to her assistance and both were burn
ed in attempting to extinguieh the
flames. The little girl was Nefy lnalr
burned about the abdomen ana lowe.
limbs, the flesh being cooked OH some
portions of the body. She was given
every attention, both medical and
surgical, as we'll as nursing, but her
death was only question of a few
days. She was patient little sufferer
and this made her suiIerings almost
unbearble to the afflicted family, who
witnessed them. The funeral arrange
ments have not been completed.

ENCOURAGING OUTLOOK.
longing Season Best For Years-0yxters
Bring Good Prices.

The season for longing oysters
throughout the oyster producing coun
ties of the State closed today, the oys-
termen, however, having until May |
to dispose of the oysters already
caught. 1t is generally stated by the
tongers that the past season has been
the best for years and that there is
an encouraging outlook sor the next
two seasons at least.
The number of longing licenses
issued in Anne Arundel county dur
ing the past season was SGD. Last
wear there we're 710, S26 in the year
closing April %, 1905, and 834 in
1904. Thus it will be seen that the
number of tongers licenses issued was
$50 in excess of last year, generally
admitted to be a poor season, and we'll
ahead of the two previous years, which
were considered good ones.
Although the oystermen have gem
orally received good prices for their
oysters, they have been handicapped
by the fact that many of the oysters,
particularly early in the season, were
just under the lawful size of two
and a-half inches. Later in the sea-
son many of these oysters grew to
the required size and were caught
and sold, but the proportion OF small
oysters is still unusually large. For
this reason, too, it has been espec-
tally hard for the oystermen to keep
their catch free from more than per
cent of small oysters and number
in this vicinity have been fined for
not doing so.
The oystermen state that so great is
the number of small oysters ON al the
usual oyster grounds that large catch
of oysters for the next two seasons "a
assured unle something unforeseen
and unusual happens. 1t is said that
the catch of spat and consequent young
growth has been large for three con-
/ secutive seasons, a most unusual oc-
currence.
