IMPORTANT CHANGE IN VAL LIABLE
 PROPERTIES
From Tuesdays DailvI

Yesterday there was filed for rec
 ord in this county a deed conveying
 the sale of one of the largest tracts
 of mining ground ever sold in the
 county, or the territory, for that
 matter. It was the transfer of l03
 quartz locations, ten patenteid mines, six placer locations, and one mill site, from the Copper Creek Development company to the Arizona-Nevada Cop per company. This sale is practically a transfer of one interest to that of another, which are kindred to each other. It is said to be the final act that will start the operation of the properties on a gigantic scale of de- velopment and production.
 The group is on. Copper creek, in the western part of the county, bord- ering on the Santa Maria. Many of the claims affected in this transfer were purchased from John Lawler, E. W. Wells and W. E. Hazeltine, the person negotiating the sale being Jos eph L. Giroux, formerly with the United Verde company at Jerome Associated with Mir. Giroux are sev- eral wealthy men and the ground has been under development for two years, the final payments being made by a few weeks ago, involving over s300,OOO for the original tract.
 The transaction of yesterday is said to be the entering wedge of the in- trOduetion of machinery to handle the ground and treat the product, that win entail an expediture of at least one million of dollars, and the pre- paratory move to this end will begin at once. Many of the stockholders of the Arizona Nevada company are due in thi. city at any time, and ad vices from Los Angeles say that they are there, en route to the ground they have acquired.
 One of the contemplated early moves of the Arizona Nevada com Dany will be to ask the support of ,he county in repairing the wagon road from Hillside to the site of heir main works on Copper creek, which highway will cost in the neigh ,ofhood of sl5,OOO. Of this sum they Ire willing to spend two-thirds and 1 he county the balance. Owing to he heavy character of the transpor- atiOn that will be made, it is de- | fred to have good roadway, as he route will be utilized by big cams and continuous service will pre- -ail for many months in taking in he machinery to be used in the of the large area acquired.
 From the thorough manner in which his tract has been prospeeted, and he significance the closing of the eeent sale and the taking up of the ptions months before they came due, he belief prevails that one of the reatest mining projects in the west } about to be inaugurated.

SHYLOCK MINES ID BE OPENED
 SOON
LFrom Tuesdays Daify)

Inside of sixty days there will be
 a general resumption of work on the
 well l-known Shyloek mines of the Cen
 tral Arizona Copper company. This
 has been definitely decided upon, and
 J. B. Cleveland, the superintendent
 of that company, will leave this
 morning for Los Angeles, to make the purchases of machinery neees-
 sary to prosecute the work. It is
 his purpose to give the property ex-
 tensive exploration at all points, and
 the future will be attended with a system of practical and continuous operation. The entire surface of the
 enterprise will be rehabilitated, and
 sinking will be resumed from the 500
 foot level to greater depth, together with general exploration of the
 ground, in drifting, erosscutting, etc. To accommodate the machinery de- eided upon, the old road from Grape vine is being rebuilt, as well as are other like improvements going on ad- jacent to the property.
 The new. machinery for this com pany will consist of a flfty-horse
 power hoist, the latest and best pumps, electric air drills of the Temple make, and other utilities of. modern construction, all of which are to be propelled by electricity. 4 contract has been signed with the Arizona Power company for the, ex- tension of its line to this camp from the circuit that goes to Jerome, less than mile. away, and in a few days the stringing of the line will be started. This feature in future op- erations of the plant is a very de- sirable one, reducing to a minimum the cost of power, and saving con siderable over the old fuel method and heavy cost in transporting the same to the site of the mines.
 The first work on the property will be directed to the unwatering of the mine at the 800 foot level, where a sump will catch all the surface flow l Sinking will then follow at the 600 foot level. In the upper workings of the mine big bodies of low grade ] ore were cut into in the many drifts and crosseuts. This showing has con tinued to. the deepest work, in fact, | 1t is said the property at this point | looks the best of any work hereto fore given. It is from that eondi- -ion it has been decided upon to go ahead with the plan that now calls for heavy outlay of capital, and which is justified by what has been decided upon. This condition pre- 'ailing at the greatest depth is given publicity at the present time rom the fact that it will soon be the management in the ,ast not deeming it advisable to make an assertion to this effect for he reason that water conditions made it an impossibility to permit f an examination to substantiate his belief
 There is much favorable comment ver the opening up of this group, as they do an excellent ating with mining men generally.

eyes of Supreme Court Justice Mors'

She asserts the baby was taken from
her by its father while she was in the
Middleton asylum, temporarily de-
ranged.
Mrs. Wolsey. who is a pretty, fiaxen-
haired woman, 80 years old, went down
on her knees before Justice Morschau-
ser and pleaded with him to get back
her boy.
While the bereaved woman pleaded
tears filled the judges eyes, and 1t was
with difficulty he could control his
voice to render the decision which
blasted her hopes.
With little Clinton were his foster
narents, who at the first attempt to
take him from them fought for the
child as though he were their own.
On the witness stand Mrs. Wolsey
said when she was released cured from
the asylum she was told her little boy
had died.

TEACHES SCHOLARS
ON HOSPITAL ROOF
NEW SCHOOL OPENED FOR
CONSERVATIVES
Children Have No Vacation, but Have
Several Hours Each Day for Rest
and Study in Reclining
Chairs

NEW YORK, July 5.-Miss Eliza
beth McGillivary enjoys the distinction
of being the only public school teacher
in New York who has her class room
on the roof of a hospital, and also that
of being the first teacher ever ap-
pointed in the city to take charge OF
a class which is under medical care all
the time, and who range in age from 3
to 16 years.
The new school is on the roof of the
Vanderbilt clinic, at the corner OF
Fifty-ninth street and Amsterdam ave-
nue. in the Red Cross consumptlve
camp. which was opened there in De-
cember. There are about twenty pupils
enrolled in the school, and their studies
embrace as nearly as possible the work
of the public school.
When children who are suffering
from disease leave school to enter the
camp they take up their studies where
they left off when they left the school
room,
In this school there will be no vaca-
tions One of the innovations of the
school is that the little sufferers imme-
diately after dinner shall lie down and
rest for one or two hours and sleep as
much as possible.
Another is the rule that all studying
shall be done in a reclining position,
the big canvas lounging chairs with
which the camp is equipped being
utilized for this purpose.

Loss of $4,000 Sustained by Country
Village Near Fresno-French
Hotel Largest Single
Loss

FRESNO, Cal. July 5.-Sanger
twelve miles east of this city, was
swept by a $4,000 fire that broke out
at i o'clock this morning. Had 1t not
been for a high north wind that blew
the flames away from the main bus
mess portion of the town, the whole
city would probably have been de-
stroyed.
The French hotel, containing seventy
rooms and valued at $4,000, was re-
duced to ashes. Other losses were:
Gardeners blacksmith shop, $1,000; Mo
berly's barber shop, $500; Sanger News
plant. $780, Wutner warehouse, 500;
Reese bicycle shop, $500; Glougie

building fronts in Gray block, $4OO.
SO far as can be learned, most of
the buildings were insured. The flames
started in a barn at the rear of the
French hotel, stray firecracker be-
ing the probable cause. A special en-
gine with fire fighters from Fresno was
sent to aid in subduing the flames ana
at o'clock this morning the fire was
under control.
