DEER SEASON Is DlsAPpoIur
 ING HUNTERS.
(From Tnnrsdny,n Dnilyl


 Although almost five days have elapsed since the opening Of the deer season, Sunday, no vcnison has bcsp brought to Prescott, as yet, by the many experienced hunters who hay. secured the mountains where the fss. tive buck is reported plentiful. Nia. rods, who were always successful h past years, arc daily returning to the city empty handed, and while many. al this date last year, had the statutory three bucks slaughtered, very few ire known to have even sighted nn. lcrcd game this season.
 William Gammill, Max Walhnrt, .IoAs McKinzie, Derry Logan md Shirley Bnldcrson were among the first to re. turn from the chase, late Sunday night. They left here after midnight, Sunday morning, for n spring in the Groen Greek mountains, to waylay band of deer in which there arc known 10 be three bucks. The deer watcrcd at this spring for tho past three months. but Sunday morning the band failed ,o ap- pear for their usual sunrise cocktails, and tho hunters returned disappointed.
 Charles Sanders and William Ard. rick. two experienced hunters, are soae from the Hcll's Canyon country, wberv they saw n few dker tracks but m deer. Mir. Sanders bagged the statutory three bucks on mountain in that see- ton las, year. in n days hunt. aad when bc left here. Monday, with Mr. Andrick. was sure that they would kill at least three. They travelled two days and returned without firing a shot.
 A number of younger ambitious hunt CTS nave secured the mountains around Skull Valley and Copper Basin with out success, and even such noted hunt CTS ms Frank Mulrein md Sidney Birch have not been favornbly heard from, although they have been ab~ent in the hills since Sunday.
 Profting by the experience of tho early ones. Charles Colqucttc. tho sturdy x. F.. r. & r. blacksmith. left here Monday night for toc Wickcnburg country, accompanied by "Cbuck" Burgctt and Dave Axley, who have been practicing with the 3O-30 for the past two months, in anticipation of the opening of the deer season. They werc seen in wickcnburg last night after the days chase, feasting on rabbit asd doves, and rcgrctting that they had not come In touch with two large bucks, whose tracks they saw ai a water hole during the day.

 (Fssm Eseay's Dauy.)

After an absence of fifteen years, C. W. Price, who Is interested with Georg" Roper in n promising copper property near Ramsgatc, in the Skull Valley district, arrived here ycstcr' day from Los Angeles. Since leaving here he has mined in Colorado, Mex- leo and British Columbia.
 In conversation with a Journal. Miner representative after his arrival here, he said. "Sincc leaving here fifteen years ago, have mined and cihc coast states, as well as in Mex leo and British Columbia, and have come to the conclusion that Yay' apai county is as promising as any in the west. It looks peculiar to see one return here and engage in mining only n short distance from locality which | attracted no attention when l left. | One has Co see the mines and pros poets of other states and countries he fore he appreciates the great possi bilities of this part of the Territory

HERE TO INSPECT HIS COM
 PANTS HOLDINGS
(From Thursdays Daily)

With view of inspecting the inter 'sis of his corporation in Arizona, James Ferguson, n director of inc Manhattan Securities company of New York, has arrived in Prescott to meet rhos. F.. Campbell, western manager for the company, and go with him to visit the Fuller mines, in Squaw Creek district, and the property of the 'er' ome Mines Development company, a' Jerome, both of which undertakings arc now under tho control and active op oration of the Manhattan Securities company. People in tho western min ing districts have th, very best oi facilities for judging and fixing tho "xact standard of eastern men who come out to purchase and develop min 'ng properties.
 Too often these gentlemen, with fh'' promises and glowing accounts of then hnancicring powers, tie up distric' on contract of purchase, start just sui hcien, work to justify them in saying that "work is under way and Hood the eastern papers and mails "''" promises of fabulous wealth to thos' who will help them provide the cos'' of extensive development work on'S 10 divert the great majority Of suei funds as they succeed in raising U their own pockets and to allow 'h' property after many months Of rr'' 'lcal inactivity to revert to th' org nal owner.
 Such meInods, in greater or lesser degree, hurt this country anu give 1t an undeservcd black eye among he great mass of eastern investors
 Bearing in mind, therefore so"' past experiences, it is particularly gra' flying to welcome n representative o' an eastern financial house, WHICH, U is said, does not do business m '""' way.

CLOSE SHAVE FOR LADY BARBER
 or HUMBOLDT.
(From Frejay's DaiE.)

Ii was n close shave, indeed, that Miss Ahcc James. lady barber, had from spending more time than she liked in the Humboldt branch county jail, clad only in her night robe, ac' cording to her story. told here ycster' day, when she arrived to engage the services of Attorney Lcroy Anderson to defend her from the charges pre- fcrrcd against her by Officer Pate of Humboldt, who alleges the iady bar bcr appeared on the Shelter City streets at m unsecmly hour of the night, dressed decidedly dccollctc. and committed the hcinous ofcnse of using language "no lady would employ"
 Tho lady barber states that Officer Pate not only incarceratcd her in the branch bastile, but that he allowed her no opportunity of securing bal un' til morning. Her trial is set for this afternoon at o'clock, in the justice court at Humboldt. and. SO says the fair defendant, the testimony will bc of racy nature.
 According to the version of the af- fair given by Miss James, her troubles date back to several months ago, when she refused to pay rent for ground up on which snc had erected a building, the ground in question being n placer location owned by man named Will kins, who instituted custer proceed ings, and was awarded possession of the premises, the house being placed in the custody of Deputy Sherin Cav anaugh. IIsr personal belongings, she states, were in one room of the build ing, which she deserted for room in another portion of the town.
 In this second room she lay down to sleep, but was prevented from clos ing ner eyes in slumbsr by the nor, or less musical noise emanating from n nearby dance hall. She arose and repaired once more to her formeI abode. where sine made n bed for her self on the floor. and was soon wrap ped in the arms of Morpheus. While dreaming that Hetty Green had just come to her and begged her for thu price of meal. she says she was rude ly aroused by OfIiccr Pate, who, at th' point of nowitzcr, marched her off
 l n to change her snowy white night robe' for proper street apparel. This, sh' declares, is what led to the use oi forceful language, if such language was used. In strong terms, she ad mits, she reproached officer Pate fol his lack of ebivalry. but, under co crcion, accompanied him to her tnir, resting place for the night, relieving

SOME GOOD STRIKES ARE RE. PORTED IN EUREKA DIS

Good reports continue to come from the Eureka district.
 Ed r. Sloan. who has had consider able experience in mining, has return cd from the scene of the strike, after having spent some time there. For himself and Jack Cross, ne located two claims, and on this property hc found n streak of ore, n sample of which ss- sayed 2o.3 ounces silver, .i3 of sn ounce gold and 4.25 per cent copper. He will return with supplies, pitch camp there and uncover the ore In order to se, what his find amounts to.
 Maloney Bros. arc engaged nov h doing assessment work on claims cd. joining the claim on which they made a strike recently, this work soon being due. This done they will return te the scene of the strik. and resume taking out ore for there is stiil plenty of ore in sight. Though they have gained n depth of only a fsv feet, they have already taken out af- teen tons of orc. Their latest assay resulted, 52 ounces silver, g of ss ounce gold, IS per cent lead and al per cent in copper
 Mir. Stone says that country Ioehs very promising, indeed, and that n would no, surprise him to see isrgs body of ore developed there in tks near future. Like all other lead eoaa- tries, this section presents many IT, rcgularities, and ore may he fsssd where one would lohst expect it. and in veins, pockets and bodies.
 Wherever found in place, ore h 10 a dolomitc lime, and there is no s'xs of n contact near orc on any of ths claims, except in the ease of the ass on the Stone & Cross property, sad then a quartzi,e blow out Is only ar teen feet further up the hill.

X C. rail load will prove. with development. to be among the greatest copper pro ducing sections in the entire Rocky Mountain region.
 VI have travelled through and pros. pectcd in a number of the great coppcr districts of tho vest he said to n Journal Miner man, "but on no place have | seen such promising surface show'ngs as are in the new copper conn. try. The great drawback to inc ,cyrl opment of that section have been ih, lack of transportation facilities. inc heat of summer and great distance be. tween watering places. Since the rail road has been built th. development has been wonderful. and this winter som" very important strikes will. in my opinion. bc made there. Operations have been suspended during the sum mcr at n number of the camps on ac. count of the immigration of miners to more favored climates. bui now all the idle ones are getting in shape to rc. sumc work as soon as miners can bc hired. This k the state of affairs .x- isiing at the Rogers copper camp. on inc Colorado river, n few miles above Parker. as we'll as several other camps 1 visited.
 "At the llarqua lIala 1 found the mill running day and nigh, on ore from the Golden Eagle mine. This K the grcatcs, gold mine in the lIarqua IIala mountains. outside of the Bon. anza. owned by the same company, with production record of over S5, OOO, ,O0O in gold, and which will soon bo rcopcncd.

LOST ONLY 6 GAMES OUT or rur
 28 PLAYED.
From ThuYsdsy 's Dai,v

Jess Wilson and Will Barnet, tuo of the popular members of the victo,. .ols Prescott Grays, returned nere ves. tcriay from Tucson, where the Gray. after defeating the Ancient Pueblo hoy. total of four out of five games play. cd, disbanded for the season with ,bo rcnnaut floating proudly beforc them.
 That Prescott is entitled to first place in the Arizona pennant race ia not iisputcd by any fair.mindcd fan. so, after tho early games of the season Prescott demonstrated on many battle. fields her superiority. Not only has ,b. played more games this season than any other team in the Territory, but she aas also won q greater percentage of her games.
 Out of n total Of 2s games played ,hc Grays lost but 6, which is n record ,ha, is not equallcd by the showing Jade by any other team in Arizopa or New Mexico. Globe and Cananc, Mexico, played good ball during the season, but the few games the former played hardly entities that town to consideration with "a team tha, played 2s games. and the same may bc said of cananea, which has played I2 games and lost |. Tucson is near the cellar with Phoenix. having lost : out of the II games played. Phoenix won only ,vo games all season from outside teams, defeating Prescott both times carly in the season. She lost iO. yumn played games, winning [. Humboldt. before her team disbandcd. played X games, winning from Prescott and 1 from Tucson, and losing i games ,o Prescott.
 From this resume of the season in Arizona it can plainly be seen that Prescott easily tx entitled ,o first place
 While base ball for the season of l9O7 is over in Prescott, the game will hc continued in tho southern towns. md Captain Elliott, formerly of the tirays, will soon be seen in company with Tucson team, while Ross, Long and Rcdman may also play with Tue son. Phoenix, Globe and Cananca will also continue playing the game until cold weather prevents.
 Next season Prescott expects to bc ,irongcr than ever, and some of the greatest base ball ever played in inc Territory is expected for 1908, as every icam in the Territory is already dctcrm. med to have the winning team.
 Wilson and Barnett were loud in their praise of the treatment accorded The Prescott boys in the southern city. "Thc town was ours.' they declared.
 Everyone seemed to vie with each other in trying to entertain us, and we were never treated better in our base ball lives. Especially were Harmon Wynkoop, one of the patrons of the game there, and Secretary Kelly of The Tucson league, kind to us. All the Prescott players are unanimous in their thanks to the Tucson people for the cyccllcnt treatment accorded them.
