Our Northern Strip.

This week John G. Potts received
the following letter from congressman
NJ. A. Smith regarding Utah's effort
to gobble our northern strip:
81 received in due time the protest of
the Board of Supervisors, of the Pro-
bate Judge and Recorder, and Clerk
of the Court against the effort of Titan
to absorb that part of Mohave county
lying north of the Colorado river. l
have successfully defeated this scheme
for the last twenty years and defeated
it again at this session of Congress.
Please inform your friends that l re-
ceived their protest and used it with
effect. Yours very truly,
NJ. A. SMITH"

A telephone line is being built from
Searchlight by way of the Capitol
group of mines to the camp of the Col
orado River Dredging company.
Tim Nay. formerly of this county, is
now experimenting operations on the
Capitol group of mines, at Marie
camp, across the river from the old
Goldbug mill.
Mr.. and Mrs. J. w. Harris wish,
through the Miner, to thank the good
people of Kingman for their hearty
cooperation in saving their effects
from the flames last Sunday.
Under the Burns bill, which is now
a law, only eight feet of shaft is nee
essary to hold a mining claim, pro-
vided, of course, that a vein in place
is found at that depth. Formerly ten
feet was necessary for location work
on a mining claim.
The Expansion Gold Mines company
is getting supplies hauled out from
Union, a station on the Western Rail-
way of Arizona, which saves the heavy
haul over Coyote Hill. The company
is assembling its milling plant at the
mines and will soon be ready to crush
ore.
Thomas McNeely came over from
Mineral Park last Tuesday to attend
a called meeting of the board of super
visors. At the meeting it was thought
best to defer the matter of advertising
for proposals for plans and speciica-
tions for Jail and courthouse until the
regular meeting in April.
Practically all the holes for the pole
line to Goldroad have been dug and
within two weeks the work of setting
the poles and stringing wires will be
under way. All work on the big plant
is complete, with exception of setting
up the transformers, which will re-
quire but a few weeks to assemble and
get in working order.
Gaddis & Perry Company has pur-
chased the big automobile formerly
owned by the McCracken people and
will use it in running out to the camps
from Kingman. 1t is one of the best
machines ever brought into the coun-
ty. The use of such a machine on the
roads running out of Kingman is be-
coming a necessity and we expect to
see many of them in operation before
another year.
Gold Road Red Top mining stock is
being gobbled up by local men this
week, thousands of shares having been
sold by the management of the COM
pany. The first allotment of $4,000
shares is practically sold out and the
next allotment applied for. With a
good sized treasury the company will
soon be ready to put in machinery and
drive deep shaft on the vein. The
tunnel is now being driven rapidly to-
ward the vein in good ground and
within sixty days connection will be
made with the vein.

John F. Withers this week purchased
! :, 200 head of sheep and turned them
over to Ward & Blakely, of the Big
Sandy, to work on shares. The sheep
business appears to be one of the best
ventures in the territory and all the
sheep men are making money.
Many carloads of timber were re-
ceived at Kingman station this week
for the Gold Road NJ. & E. company
and many teams are now at work haul
ing it out to the big gold camp. The
Tom Reed people are also getting car
loads of timber for mine and new work
in and around their property. Prac-
tically all supplies for these camps are
now going in by way of this place.
Yesterday, near Yampai, japanese
passenger on No. l either fell or threw
himself beneath the train, his body
being practically cut in two and other
wise horribly mangled. The man was
last seen standing on the platform of
the train and a few minutes thereafter
the conductor felt the jar of the wheels
passing over something and stopped
the train, finding the mangled remains
of the Jap beneath. The body was
taken to Kingman where an inquest
will be held.
The residence of John Harris, on
Front street. Kingman, was destroyed
by fire last Sunday evening. Practi-
cally all the effects of the family were
saved. The fire is said to have origi-
mated in the bathroom. The building
was owned by L. J. Lassell and was in
sured for lOO0S. The frame building
adjoining the Lassell house was also
destroyed. No insurance. This build
ing was owned by Mrs. John Lynch.
A small stream of water at the right
time would have quenched the fire,
but none was to be had.
T. r. GARNER came in from Cerbat
last Monday and departed to Los Ar
geles, where he will look after mining
affairs. He was well pleased with the
outlook at the St. Louis mines, upon
which Superintendent Lewis Stirzel
is doing large amount of work. Dur
ing the past three months the mine
has shipped TO the smelter from de-
velopments 100 tons of lead ore, run
ming better than 60 per cent. This ore
also carries values in silver and gold.
1t is understood that soon sinking
would be commenced on this vein, the
ore shoot showing strongly in the boz
tom of the drifts.
W. +. Grounds and James T. Duncan
returned Thursday evening from
trip into the Piute mountains, on the
west side of the Colorado river, where
they hunted for lost mine. They re-
port that there is considerable activity
in that section, many prOspectOrs be-
ing in there and one mine, about ten
miles above Needles, operating force
of men. The mine is under bond TO
Charles Clark, son of Senator Clark.
The vein shows some copper and gold
and gives evidence of being a big
thing. They returned by way of Tom
Reed and Goldroad and were much i'm
pressed with the great activity in
those camps. Mr.. Grounds is of the
opinion that Goldroad and Tom Reed
will make a record for themselves this
year.

WHAT THE KIDNEYS DO.
Their I'ncCaSing Work Keeps Is
Strong and Healthy.

All the blood i'm the body passes
through the Kidneys once every three
minutes. The kidneys filter the blood.
They work night and day. When
healthy they remove about 800 grains
Of impure matter daily, when un-
heSsfsF%' some part Of this impure mat
ter is loft i'm the blood. This brings
on many diseases and symptoms
pain i'm the back, headache. nervous
ness, hot. dry skin. rheumatism. gout.
gravel. disorders of tho eyesight and
hearing, dizziness. irregular heart. de-
bility. drOwsincss, Gropsy deposits in

GROSS ROND SIGNS.

In last weeks issue Of The Advcr-
tiscr appeared an article signed "Onc
WHO Travels" on the subject of sign
boards at the cross roads on the main
Highways in the county, i'm which the
convenience and even necessity for
such devices were argued In all
that our correspondent says we heart
lily agree; sign boards, indicating the
distances to various towns and public
places, showing to what places the
roads lead, are indeed great aid to
travellers.
Our correspondent wishes the adop-
tion Of the plan for Laurens county;
evidently he is not aware OF the fact
that the law of the state requires
these sign boards, and that the coun-
ty commissioners failing to provide
them are liable to prosecution and
fine in the criminal courts. We re-
81 actfully suggest to "One Who Tray
els" that he institute proceedings
against the authorities, and see IL by
that means he can have his desires
gratified.
Here is the law on the subject:

who shall cut down, burn or deface
any mile post or stone, erected by
the county commissioners or county
supervisor of any county, he, she,
or they, upon conviction thereof shall

"SOMETHIN' FUNNY"

Ohder the title The Reason She
Did Not Take The Courier" Mr.. !.
NJ. Mitchell, travelling representative
OF The Baptist Courier, writes a very
interesting story on the reason why
certain subscriber quit taking the
Baptist paper of the state. The rea-
son is this:
I'VE were just talking along and |
happened to ask: Are you and Bob
still taking The Courier? No, she
said, We paid UP and told 'em to stop
it. Then asked why they did not
continue to take it, She said they
were not able to pay for it and made
othcr excuses which | proceeded to
deal with in such way that they
looked mighty poor, and insisted that
they renew their subscriptions. Then
she spoke the genuine reason. Ana
what could | say further? 1t was
this: 1T wouldn't be no use. Fob
don't care much about readn' and
don't read an| thing much unless it
IS something funny. told her
frankly that in that case it would
probably be waste OF money to take

And then Mr.. Mitchell goes on to
advise The Courier that it would be
wise to publish more funny" matter;
that it would reach certain class OF
readers and hold them rs subscribers.

a hundred Of her friends in honor Of
her guest, Miss Simsie McMichaeI Of

and the porch and lawns lighted with
the Japanese lanterns; these with the
numberless palms, ferns and pot
plants made scene Of exquisite
beauty The refreshments, ice cream
cake and mints. were daintily served
by Misses Mary Sullivan, Sarah Bolt
and Hattie Sullivan. prettily attired
in Japanese costumes. Misses Lyl
Grows and Mildred Babb, similarly
gowned, served punch IN the lawn

were pleased to meet her here again.

What Yaomen Were.

Yeomen were formerly considered to
be by their title on level with es-
quires. and they were called yeomen
because. in addition to the weapons
proper for close engagements. they
fought in the wars with arrows and
bow which was made of yew; hence
the word. After the conquest the
name Of yeoman. in reference to the
original office in war. was changed to
that Of archer. The term. however.
was continued with additions-the yeo-
man of the crown, of the chamber.
yeomau usher. etc.-and we find that
considerable grants were bestowed on
soGae of them. In the legal view a
yeoman is defined to be one that has
fee land of the value of 40 shiliinSs
year and is thereby qualified to serve
On juries. to vote for knights of the
shire aud to do any other act which
the law may require. The yeomen al
ways took leading part in whatever
concerned the regulations or interests
Of the Kingdom. and their renown as
warriors is fully established by their
numerous heroic achievements.-Lon-
