HORSES MIXED UP LIKE BABES IN
 VIRGIN|AN
Tangle of Teams Was Finally Strengthened
 Out, However
From Saturdays Daily)

Consternation reigned for a few hours on Labor day at a well known livery stable in this city. The air was almost crimsonized for a time and the occasion was the exchange of teams that were placed in custody.
 Mrs. Albertson, of Lynx Creek, sent her driver to the city for a load of grain to feed her dairy cat tie, and about that time another team pulled into the same place. The next morning the Albertson team was hook ed up, and stated for Dewey, and a few minutes later the unknown team was likewise put in commission and sent to the home of Mrs. AlbeTtson. When it pulled up in front of her house, she immediately realized that like in "The Virginian," the babies were mixed all up and then com menced a frenzied accounting of the livestock industry. She expOstulated with the driver and asked him all sorts of leading questions, and her tone was decidedly emphatic. Taking the reins in her own hands, she start ed for the city. Arriving, there was scene No. ?, and about that time a man was put on horseback and a hot trail taken to Dewey. The Al bertson horses were rounded up at that point and the grain also. The wagon was not invoiced, however. The Dewey team was then sent to the city with another driver for certain req sons. Reaching the stable there was a general switching of horses, wagons and freight.
 In the melee that followed, the moving of hungry cows on the ranch miles away could be heard, or at least that was the belief of the owner. Finally, the horses were put from the wrong wagons to the right ones. the grain was switched to the vehicle that had rock salt, bacon and beans aboard, the Dewey driver took the whip away from the Albertson employe, and as the two men stood facing each other they whispered in each others ear: Hereafter. Kirk land for me and Walker for you"

One of the finest pieces of hoist ing machinery to reach this section in a long time was the receipt yes terday of the new electric hoist of the Arizona Central Copper company, which is to be placed on the Shyloek mine of that enterprise. It was con signed to the Arizona Mines Supply company, and is being assembled to making a test of its mechanism.
 This work will be done at once, and owing to the character of its meehan- ism care will be exercised, and a few days elapse before the test will be made by generating the electrical power process of operating it.
 When this new hoist reaches it's destination, connection will be made with the line of the Arizona Power company, and it will then be started up. Motors and other attachments are being put in place at the Shy lock for this purpose, J. B. Cleveland, the superintendent of the property, said yesterday.

TO DEVELOP CLAIMS
 AFTER 45 YEARS
0ctogenarian to Start Work on Pro- perties He Has Had Two
 Score Years.

N. s. Graves, a pioneer of the 1864 period, arrived in Prescott Tues
 day and in conversation with friends says that he is here on Elis- sion of mining. Incidentally he IS also again on the old ground TO re- new aequaintanees of the past. and will remain for some time. He is eighty years of age, and nature, he says, has been generous to hIn, as his gait is firm and his hopes sor 5he future as buoyant as when he eIoss d the Hassayampa divide 45 years ago in search of the yellow metal. To state his case suecinctly, he is Tn this mining field to locate a claim that he passed over in that day, and yes terday he returned after making the selection of a quartz claim on Indian creek, about seven miles to the south of this city. He has had the claim recorded and now proposes to dig on the vein.
 Attending the return of this pill grim he gives a vivid outline O the doings of his day in that distant past. He called on Joseph Ehle i'm mediately after reaching the city and the two pioneers had a decidedly live ly discussion of reminiscent dOings, MT. Graves recalling the day when with his own hands he constructed the old house for MT. Ehle that now stands on the corner of Mortezuma and Willis streets, the property being still owned by the man who had it built in the early CO.'S.
Weekly journal-miner., 1909-09-15

MT. Graves also gave some very in
 teresting data concerning early In
 dian depredations in this immediate vicinity, particularizing that expedi- tion of over forty-five men that went
 into the Bradshaw mountains. and after losing this way were finally surrounded and after fighting their way out of the Bradshaw Basin, where the town of Crown King is situated, they returned to Prescott and were closely pursued by the red devils the entire distance they re- treated. During this expedition, MT Graves says. he and two others made a mineral location on the rim of the basin, and later this ground was known as the Crown King and War Eagle mines. This was the first loea- tion made in the Bradshaw region. and the three men held the ground but a short time.
 This pioneer left this section at the close Of the Indian war, and from that day to the present has resided at OrOville, Cal, making a few trips to this city since leaving. He main tains that the location made the other day should not be placed in the long list of lost mines, but that as he re- the surface Outeroppings it looked good in that distant period, and he will take a chance after his many years of experience as a prac- teal miner in California and else where by doing some development.

PRISO TAKEN TO TUCSON FOR
 SAFEKEEP|NG
Feared Slayer of Pete Hodges Might Be
 Lynched

TUCSON, Ariz., Sept. 9.-Sherift
 Gus Livingston, of Yuma county reached Tucson yesterday afternoon from Yuma, having in custody Fran cisco Marquez, the young Mexican who shot and killed Pete Hodges, a well known mining man in the noun tains near Yuma about two months ago. Marquez was lodged in the coun- ty jail here for safekeeping and will probably be held here pending his trial in the district court at Yuma.
 In perpetuatiOn of his conservative policy, Sheriff Livingston after con siderable thought deemed it advisable to take the man to Tucson, fearing that possible attempt of Yuma county residents to take the law in their own hands might result disas- trOusly for the prisoner, attaches of the sheriff's office or the would-be lynchers. Sheriff Livingston states that feeling is at high tide at Yuma over the atrOciOus murder of Hodges and although there have been no ae- tual plans to his knowledge to avenge the crime before the court takes ac- tiOn, he feels that it will be for the best interests of the community to keep the man away from Yuma, at least, until the bitterness has sub sided.
 Until yesterday Marquez has been a prisoner in the territorial peniten- tiary at Yuma. The big prison is now being removed to the newly construct ed institution at Florence. Sheriff Livingston does not consider the jail at Yuma safe against mob and for this reason arrangements. have been made to keep the prisoner in the Pima county jail.
 The murder of Pete Hodges was of a most heinous character. It occur red at a lonesome spot in the Fortuna mountains about B miles from Yuma. Marquez also attempted to murder another Mexican, who escaped only by his fleetness of foot He hurried to Yuma and gave the alarm and in a short time large posses were SCOUT ing the mountains and valleys for the murderer. He was captured a week later in his cabin.

FEAR WILLIAM CURRAN
 HAS MET FOUL PLAY
Wellknown Mining Man Who Flashed Roll Has Disappeared in Most
 Mysterious Manner.
(From Saturdays Daily.)

Friends of William Curran are be- coming alarmed at his continued ab- senee from the Poland district and the current belief is that he has met with foul play. He was last seen at Mayer on November 17th, 1908, and at that time was en route to the Admiral group of mining claims on Soap creek in the Black Canyon dis triet to perform annual assessment work on his interest, owning one half of the locations.
 His associate in this enterprise is Henry Dumont, but at that time the latter was employed on the Gladstone mine at McCabe, and he some months ago expressed the belief that Curran's absence looked suspicious and he en- deavOred at that time to locate him. Since then he has repeatedly tried to find some trace of his missing partner, but has been unable to do so.
 The last seen of Curran was at Mayer, and he came down from Pc land to board the train to Turkey, informing several of his friends at

 In addition to his interest in the Admiral claims he is also said to own one-half interest in the first exten- sion of the Express mine at Poland, which property it is said is under negotiation of sale, but its transfer cannot take place until Curran is To- eated.
 He is said to have a bank account in this city of a sum ranging close to 5000. He is a man of about 45 years of age of Irish percentage and of short stature.
 The belief of his intimate friends is that he was lured from Mayer and has met with foul play. Several of his friends state that they will make a careful investigation of the region adjacent to that town and they main tain the belief that he has been kill ed and his body secreted nearby.

As the fence around Fort Whipple is commencing to be closed in on that domain of Uncle Sam, the shoe is beginning to pinch civilian sources and yesterday the board of supervis- Ors made a new move in the game to save the county highway by ask ing for an injunction against the con tractor of the government, William Nelson, from proceeding with the work. Judge Moore accordingly grant ed the injunction.
 For some weeks the contractor has been delayed in the work of putting the finishing touches in that thorough fare, washouts delaying the arrival of the wire. But this commodity is on hand at last, and yesterday several big rolls were placed at convenient points on the route, the intention be- ing to rush the work with speed, so that the topheavy grass that recent rains have produced will not be nipped by any long snooted bovines, and incidentally closing litigation so far as injunctions are to be consid- cred in the future against the four footed race.

of the county roadway is the basis
 of a long drown out controversy, and
 in which the military, have specifical- ly announced its purpose. The latter will permit the county to place auto matic gates leading in and out of that enclosure, and here is where the shoe pinches. The county authorities maintain that these gates are unserv- iceable for teams having six or more animals attached to wagons and feel that they should resist the building of the new fence on lines designated by the government. When fenced un- der present plans, the county road running through the post will be thrown to the side of the bed of Granite creek, and at one point traf- fife will pass down the bed of that stream.
 Captain Palmer, commanding Fort Whipple, was questioned last night regarding the issuing of the injunc- tion, restraining Contractor Nelson from proceeding with the laying of the fence, but stated that he had not as yet had the matter legally present ed to him. Accordingly he was un- aware of the import of this legal move, and was unable to make a statement of the government s side of the controversy at this time.
