In the Bill Williams country,
says the Yuma Examiner, there
has recently been made a deal that
will astonish the mining world, as
three Of the largest copper gold
properties in that district have lately
been in part acquired by the Nit
chclI interests well known in the
mining world. The properties which
have been consolidated into one are
known as the Signal Copper com
pany, the Clara Gold Mining COM
pany and the Morrow interests, of
which w. Ii. Palmer of Wenden
dale, owned a three-eighths interest
which he lately disposed of for a
considerable sum of money. This in
terest was acquired through the I'M
firing efforts of T. J. Carrigan, who
is rightly called the father of that
country. as he with his energy and
western grit has made out of mere
prospects three years ago, mines
that in the very near future will
astonsh the world.
The above is in connection with
the Clara gold property of which
company he has been identified since
the discovery of them. The present
consolidation is due to his efforts,
which he will soon see crowned with
success.

DRAGON DISTRICT.

There is no denying the fact that
the Dragons have been less adver-
tised for the merit of the district
than any other field in the South
west.
If mining men had to prowl down
through Mexico. a hundred miles
from a railroad, and should then
and there find a district offering
just half the inducement that the
Dragons offer, they would go daft
over it and the papers would be full
of it. As it is, little is said about
the Dragon district. Few news
paper men or promoters have been
there, and yet it is gradually coming
forward just the same. There is no
question, however, but what a little
sound. judicious advertising of the
Dragons would greatly enhance the
chances of the property owners for
realizing at a much earlier day than
they will be able to do under the old
regime.-Tombstone Prospector.

JEROME DISTRICT.

At the Cleopatra Manager Hull
now has over 300 tons of high grade
ore on the dump, and continues to
take out more daily. At present
the knocking down of ore is going
along slowly as but one shift is
being worked because of a lack Of
power to put in machine drills, but
a plant is now being installed and
with it powerful machine drills will
be operated by two shifts, which
means that eight men will be used
in knocking down and removing ore
from the Cleopatra mine. Mr. Hull
estimates that they will-with pow
er-be able to take out twenty tons
of ore per day That will be going
some. At the Jerome-Verde Copper
companys group the work Of retim-
bering the shaft has been completed,
and the placing Of the machinery
about completed. The character of
the work to be done on this prop
erty has not yet been decided upon.
During the past week another new
company was organized for the pur-
pose Of operating in this district.
The new company will be known as
the Copper Chief Extension Copper
company, with a capitalization Of
81 100000; 100000 shares; par value
SI.00 each. Arrangements for financ-
ing the new company have been
made in the east. The officers are:
r. A. williams, president; Fred Haw-
kins. president; w. p. Scott,
secretary and treasurer The group
owned by the new company consists
of eight claims which are an extern
sion of the famous Copper Chief
mine on the southwest. Experts say
that the Copper Chief has several
million dollars worth of ore in sight.
The new company has a promising
group.

But this he has refused to do,
preferring, seemingly, to go
down in defeat fighting rather
than play the role of gutter.
Favrot himself claims that he
has every reason to believe that
he will win in the second race,
but to an experienced observer it
would seem that the only thing
he has to found such an opinion
on is the hope that Wicklitfe's
friends will prove luke warm and
not turn out as they did on the

what Wickliffe and his friends

Eggs Is Eggs.

Let US sing the praise OF the

cackled with pride over the pro
duction of nearly one billion three
hundred million dozens of eggs!
Do you realize what that means?
Well, listen:
IF instead of remaining quietly
at home in Iowa, she had chosen
to demonstrate her powers to
the universe at large, the Hen
might have laid those eggs, each
two inches long, end to end, in a
continuous chain reaching23o,olo
miles up to the moon, back again,
and then more than half way
around the world for good meas

would easily have covered Man

East feIiciana's Model Road.

Road Expert Charles T. Har-
rison, of the Office of public roads
of the United States department
of agriculture, reached Jackson,
East Feliciana parish, a couple OF
weeks ago for a conference with
parish officials and leading citi-
zens regarding an object lesson
road which is to be built from
Jackson to McManus.
When Chief Engineer Vernon
M. Pierce.of the office of public
roads despatched Mr.. Harrison
on this mission, that means much
for the betterment of this section
of Louisiana, he told him to make
study of conditions, and after
comforting with the leading cltl-
zens of that vicinity to determ-
inc what class of road would be
best adapted to the locality, and
what material could be best utll-
lied. When that decision has
been reached, the work will be
started without delay. tits un-
derstood that the Federal expert
will remain on the ground and be
in active superintendent OF the
work.

est in the extension and malnte-
nance of good highways is be,
coming more generally apprecl-
ated as the work of Director Lo-
. gan Waller Page, of the office Of
public roads, is impressed upon
the public. Good roads are the
salvation of the farmer, and no.
where are they more needed

states. Careful statistics re-
. Gently assembled by the govern
monts of tho limited States, Eng

the startling and shameful fact
that it costs 10 cents a ton q
" mile more to haul farm products
to market over the shockingly
bad roads of this country than j

Europe.
If all the roads of the Unitet

He carried Washington parish in

carried Pointe Coupee in the

received fully 800 more votes
than Favrot.

The Virginia enterprise., 1908-05-15

when he faced murder charge till
his wife returned from Chicago,
where she had Unexpectedly gone on a
visit, he kept out of serious difficulty
until the other day, when he took a
notion to whip his wife. This trouble
is said to have resulted from the
wife's taking the part of Edith Lang
man, her daughter by a previous mar
nage, whom Tolton had whipped be-
cause he said she was not behaving
After T0lton had abused his daugh-
ter and the wife expostulated, Tolton
threw his wife and daughter out of the
house, and followed this by pitching
out the furniture with the exception of
a bed, table and a few other articles
Neighbors were incensed, and when
Tolton left the house they seized him
and gave him such beating that
when he escaped he returned to the
house and barricaded the doors and
windows.
In the meantime an AFFIDAVIT had
been filed looking to his arrest. A
warrant was issued by Mrs. Clara NJ
Hess, said to be the only woman JUS
tice of the peace in the state, but the
town marshal and the township con-
stable were unable to dislodge Tolton,
and, although the entire population of
200 people was at their backs, they did
not venture to break into the house.
The siege continued till midnight, and
then Mrs. Hess telephoned to Sheriff
Smutzer of this city. The sheriff sent
Deputies Anstiss and Mari to West
Vile in an automobile, all speed laws
being shattered on the run, for it was
feared that the mob might get rest
less and possibly set fire to the Tolton
home.
When the deputies arrived they de-
manded that the door be opened, but
Tolton, who had 12-year-old son with
him, refused. Then the deputies with
a rail battered down the door, which
had been nailed and bolted from the
inside. Tolton, fully dressed, lay in
bed while the door was being forced,
and he was crying when arrested. At
his side stood loaded shotgun. When
asked why he did not use it, he
mumbled, whats the use? Being
without money or friends, and unable
to give bond, he was committed to
jail to await grand jury action.
