E. Chapin Gard Indicted.

E. Chapin Gard, who at one time was interested in the Treasure Hill mines, but who had to relinquish his holdings, was indicted by the Federal grand jury at Denver, last week. Gard is accused. of using the mails to de- fraud, and is alleged to have promoted more than forty mining companies. Some of his letters to intending stock purchasers are gems of sophistry. He has mines in Utah, he alleges, to which are to be consolidated antiguas in Mexico, and all of which have mill ions ready to be converted into gold and silver bullion. He will probably get his deserts before Uncle Sam gets through with him.

Progressive Firm in New Building.

In times of peace and war the SOL diers of trade are among the import ant adiuncts of a live town. Kingman, possibly. has some of the most ener-
 getic, live, uptodate, hustling men in trade that can be found in the terri tory and it is to their effort in bring inc trade to the town that Kingman owes it's enviable position among the best little cities of our glorious con- monwealth. Among these progressive firms and corporations is to be noted the Tarr x McComb incorporation. This firm from small beginning has progressed until it is now one of the most important factors in the trade of northern Arizona. It controls the lumber business of the county, having one of the largest yards on the line of the Santa Fe railroad, is supplying oil, ccal, and all classes of supplies to the mines; has telephone lines reaching out to practically every town in the county and is even connected up with our si ister town of Needles by line nearly sixty miles in length. Its bus mess reaches out to all points along the line of the Santa Fe and branch lines. Every year sees it reaching out still farther in the extension of it's business. To enable it to carry on it's vast and growing business this cor poration has just completed one of the handsomest office buildings in the ter ritory. The building is of reinforced concrete and fitted up in the best pos sibe manner for the expeditions car rying on of the business of the firm. The inside finishing of the building is mission in style and the colorings are soft hues, pleasing to the eye. It is lighted from large plate glass win dows in front and skylight in the center of the building. The main bus mess office fronts on Front street and is large and roomy, while in the rear are private offices and battery rooms. Taken altogether it is one of the hand somest and most commodious build ings in this part of Arizona.

Anson H. Smith,
 Editor MINER, Kingman, Arizona. My DEAR SIR:
 Kindly insert in your paper the fol- lowing add: I will give 5Ob for any information as to the party or parties which will convict, who placed the explosion at Conkey's store on the night of May 18th, or give the same to the district attorney.
 Now they say that old Haas did not do it himself but he hired man to do it, as they were seen together about that time, &c., &c. Now don't wish to have the mans name in print which I was dealing with, but God knows such talk is absolutely false. So if anyone knows anything they can go to you or Mr. Blakely, and tell what they know.
 Sincerely,
 JAS. w. HAAS.

Courthouse Bill Passes Congress.

Last week the bill authorizing Mo- have county to issue bonds for the pur- pose of building courthouse and jail at Kingman passed congress and went to the President for his signature. All bills relating to public buildings in tine territory of Arizona passed con- gress and will probably become laws.
 Mohave county has long needed a courthouse and jail and it now be- hooves the board of supervisors to get a move on and see that the wishes of the people on this important subject are carried out. At the present time it is crime to confine prisoners in the misnomer of jail, and it is another crime to keep important records in the dangerous condition in which they are now kept in the courthouse. The old building is but a finder box, that would burn like a flash of celulold. A stone building should take the place of this old structure, and the architec ture should be along substantial and modeln lines.

Capt. Joe Godfrey, one of the best known miners and millmen in this county, died at the Searchlight M. & M. Company's mill, at Searchlight on the l7th of this month. Death was due to heart failure, superinduced by acute indigestion. He was 72 years of age at the time of his death. He had gone to Searchlight from Chloride only a few days prior to death. While in this county he had been employed at various mills and was reputed to be one of the best in the business in the handling of complex ores.
 The new passenger schedule of the Santa Fe railroad company has been prepared and sent to the office of the Interstate Commerce commission for approval or modification. This sched- ule provides passenger rates covering certain points and is in conformity to the new ruling of the commission. Los Angeles, Needles, Ash Fork and Albuquerque are the new rating points. Under this passenger from Chicago will get a rating to Needles covering all points between Needles and Ash Fork, instead of the Los An geles rating. The rating will be low or to this point than heretofore, but the difference will be slight
 George Defrance, at one time a printer in this office and later men, Der of the Printer Placer Syndicate, died at Yuma few days ago of heart failure. Defrance, after leaving this county, drfted into the Nevada gold camps, where he made some money, but like all whose money comes easy, it was soon spent and he turned his hand to the newspaper business.

enthusiastic audience. The

was full of many amusing
situations and ludicrous char.
acters, cupid playing no small
part and shedding a few tears
before the happy climax is
reached in the last act. The
quaint costumes, some of them
beautiful and costly, enhanced
the general effect and helped
to produce the meaning each
