apai and will act as a spur to other companies which own promising mines.
 A meeting of the directors of the Octave company is to be held in the office of E. s. Clark in this city on December 13, MT. Clark being the legal representative of the company.
 At this meeting, it is expected that the definite plans for the expendi- ture of the big sum that has been received will be decided upon and work prosecuted on a much more ex- tensive scale than at the present time.
 Yesterday several representatives of the general contractor, who is doing work at the Octave mine, were in the city, hiring all of the miners that they could find for work on the property.
 "Our sole disappointment was that we could not find enough men," said one of the agents. "We secured the entire town and while we engaged a number of miners, nevertheless we could not get near as many as we wanted"
 Octave has had an excellent his tory. It has produced excellent ore and that the company owning the properties believes in doing things on large scale is indicated by the big sum they are to put into the prop erty in further exploitation and de- velopment.
 It was stated that the quarter mil lion was secured in the east which is further proof of the fact that east ern capitalists are again looking to- ward Arizona and are ready to in- vest large sums in the promising mines in the largest copper produe- ing commonwealth in the entire eoun- try.

ORDER IS RECEIVED FOR
 COMPLETION OF FENCE
(From Fridays Daily.)


 The bovine tribe will have but a few more days in which to browse on the Whipple reserve and the day of the injunction against them has passed into memory's judicial past. The officers of the Eighteenth can go ahead for the spring clearing of the ground and delicate little fibers of blue grass, the sweet odor of clover, the chrysanthemum, the Bur bank rose, and all the other beau tiful specimens of the flora family can creep up as high as they want to without fear of being nipped in the bud, as it were.
 The misunderstanding that prevail ed between the military and the civilians is also passed and no more will it be necessary for one to get into the United States marshai's of flee to fight for the trespass laws. This brief review of the lively con- sideration of the question is brought again to the public view for the last time. A cineh has at last been reached in the long considered con- troversy and it is due to the receipt from Washington yesterday by Lieu tenant Alfonte of that post of an official endorsement of the much mooted fence line route that is to enclose that desirable barracks and orders to go ahead with the woven wire and the post-holes on the lines agreed upon, in the joint arbitration of the matter. Accordingly Contrac- tor Nelson will today begin digging the new post-holes that are to be strung along the disputed strip and as fast as he gets one deep enough in the ground, the big grading appa- ratus of the county will take up the work in making a new roadway. Many changes will follow in the location of this road. Several of the old buildings along the route will have to go, just as all the others have giv- en way to the march of progress in the new fort on the hill above. The purposes of the war department can now be carried out in the creation of a commodious athletic field and the officers quarters can have the pleas ant environment of protected vegeta- tion, while the bovines must seek pastures new.

No longer is Whipple Barracks to be during the night time when the moon is not shining a place where the darkness is broken only by the faint glimmer of oil lamps streaking through windows in the barracks buildings.
 Uncle Sam through the war depart ment proved yesterday by entering into a ten-year contract with the Prescott Electric company for the supply of lighting power for this rapidly increasing post that he not only believes that there should be light but he is absolutely convinced that it should be of the brightest kind.
 The extension of the lines to the barracks will involve an expenditure of approximately $1O,OOO to complete all of the necessary improvements, including stringing of power wires, lamps and the building of a sub

PROMINENT ENGINEER ARRIVES.
 From Fridays DaIlYO

E. E. Beebe, formerly one of the owners of the Monica mine, arrived in the city a few days ago from his base of operations-Los Angeles-for a trip of inspection to many mining properties adjacent. Since disposing of his mining ground in this county, MT. Beebe has become widely and influentially known in the mining field and in recent years has confined his operations to California and Ne vada, where he became Identified with some of the largest enterprises. He is here to make exploitation of sev- eral mines and it is probable that as a result of his work, some heavy sales will follow. He says he is at tracted to this section from a per sonal knowledge of the various dis tricts and the possibilities of certain mines that are yet in the stage of development, specifying gold claims particularly with enough demonstra- tive work to warrant the outlay of heavy capital. He left last night for Phoenix, returning over the Southern Pacific to his home. He expects to return to Prescott in a few weeks.

station which will be erected at the end of the ear line at Whipple.
 The military grounds are to be bril- liantly lighted by 25 powerful tung- sten lamps for arch lights. These will be mounted on poles which will be 20 feet in height.
 In the officers quarters and in the barracks and other post buildings, there will be installed 2,O0O incan- descent lights of 16-eandle power each. All of the buildings have al- ready been equipped for this purpose SO that the additional wiring that will be required will be for the arc lights and for the carrying of the current from the sub-station to the various buildings on the reservation.
 With the completion of this im- provement, Whipple Barracks, which is admittedly the most picturesque post in the southwest, will have a most brilliant appearance by night as well as a most pleasing one by day.

QUARTER MILLION
 FOR OCTAVE MINE
(From Saturdays Daily.)

It was learned yesterday that the
 Octave Mining company is to expend
 $250,O00 in further development of
 it's property located in this county.
 This information is the best and
 most important mining news that has
 been received in this section in many
 months. The expenditure of quar-
 ter million dollars on this property on which extensive work has already
 been done will serve as a most decided impetus for mining in general in Yav-

 goes bravely on throughout the dIs- triet. Mining is but in its infancy in Arizona, but more especially is this true of the section surrounding Jer- ome. But men who have confidence in this section, and who are provided with ample funds, are now seeking investment in our midst, with the re- suit that some very promising prop critics are being opened up. Indiea- tions are that favorable as to war rant the News in the prediction that ere long this will be the scene of the greatest mining camp on the Pacific coast. People have just begun to awaken to realization that in the Jerome district is some of the biggest copper deposits in the world. The civilized world wants copper, the de- mand for the brown metal is on the increase and the price will justify the mine operators.
 Some of the most promising looking ore ever exhibited in Jerome was shown here Thursday by Ed. Mahurin of Del Rio, a pioneer of the Verde valley. The ore came from the Squaw Peak district, from claims located in Copper canyon, about two and one half miles west of Camp Verde. The samples included a gold-bearing rock | which it is claimed gives assay re- turns of thousands of dollars per ton. | Other rock carrying copper sulphides, and what looks very much like native copper, was also exhibited. This rock, it is claimed, came from a depth of 80 feet. The Squaw Peak district is noted as a producer of rich ores, and it has always been predicted that ore of the richest mines in the world will some day be opened in the district, and if the owners of the new strike have what they believe they have, the above prediction has been realized.
 The new diamond drill hole on the is now down over TAO feet, eneountering a formation of sandstone with occasional streaks of lime. The discovery of ore in the Haynes, the neighbor of the A. and A., has raised additional interest in the diamond drill work on this prop erty.
 At the Hull and Cleopatra work is being continued without interruption, and with encouraging results. Good headway is being made in the three drifts of the Hull, while the knocking down of ore on the Cleopatra is being continued by two shifts.
 The United Verde Extension is now doing rapid work with its new ma ,hinery, driven by electricity furnish ed by the Arizona Power company. The sinking of the winze is the priu- sipal work now being done. Those express themselves as well pleased with developments.
 Foreman Miller reports good prog -ess at the Meseal, with the formation more solid, which continues 10 carry values in the precious metals.

 FORMER RESIDENTS
CFrom Fridays Daily)


 Walter Pentland, a former resident of this city, and Miss Charlotte King were married in the City of Mexico on November 10th and the event was one of the most prominent socially that has taken place in the American colony of that city in recent times.
 The bride is the daughter of Mrs. Edith B. King, who is residing in that country, coming from the east several months ago. The wedding cards received in Prescott yesterday stated that MT. and Mrs. Pentland would make their home at Fl Gro, where he is the superintendent of the Fl Gro Mining and Railway com pany.
 Mr. Pentland since leaving Prescott several years ago adopted mine engi- neering as a profession and at the present time is the consulting head of the above company in its mine operations, which cover an extended field in that republic. In addition to MT. Pentland's capabilities, he is a young man who enjoys an ex- cellent name with all in this com munity, where he was reared to man. hood. He visits this city occasionally and holds membership in several fra ternal orders here. With his bride he is the recipient of congratulations from all.

It is their belief that the actual melting and casting of the counterfeit money took place in the tunnel and that this is reasonable is borne out by the fact that several pieces of heavy iron are missing from the shop that would be of service in the press ing machine.
 After reaching Huron Sheriff Smith was notified and with Deputy Sheriff Keeler the two officers left for the mine, reaching there yesterday morn ing early. When the trailing of the man was started Deputy Sheriff Thos. Thompson of Mayer was summoned to work with Deputy Sheriff Keeler. Sheriff Smith left the party at Po- land Junction, returning to Huron.
