LUCKY BOY
LOOKING BETTER
EVERY A
SENATOR T. Il. ODDIE QUITE OPP
TDHsTIC OVER THE NEW
CAMP.

THE Lucky Boy district is looking
better every day." stated Senator T.
L. Oddie yesterday. Mr.. Oddie has
spent the last several weeks in the
camp and is quite enthused over the
prospects. THE Hubbard-Patrick
lease continues to extract its usual
amount of ore and from what the
superintendent of the property says,
the lodges are improving and getting
stronger with depth. A material in
crease in the values has been noticed
and it is expected when a consider
able depth is ascertained the ledge
will be one of the largest in the
state.
"The Mitchell lease, adjoining the
Hubbard-Patrick lease, is in a fair
way to be one of the best in the dis
trict and from the indications a large
fortune will be extracted. This prop.
erty already has an old shaft sunk
which they are retimbering and max
ing preparations to start work on Z
large scale. They have sunk an
other shaft some distance from th'
original in which they have excellen'
indications.
, "On the property ! recently acquir
> ed with my associates, we will b.
! ready to start sinking inside of tw'
weeks. The work at present has bee

: the best site for the sinking of
shaft. There are two dykes runnin

E lease and the Hubbard-Patrick hole

MADE INSPECTION OF
 FOSSIL CREEK PROPERTY.

After several days spent in making persoal examination of the immense plant and other interests of the Ari- zona Power Company, at Fossil Creek, Messrs. H. W. Buck and G. H. Reid, interested stockholders, left for their homes in the east a few days ago. MT. Buck is a member of the firm of Viele, Blackwell &Buck of New York, consulting engineers who rep resent bankers and financial inter ests, and his examinations were con- ducted to ascertain whether the Flee trical Operating Construction Com pany had concluded its contract to build the plant of the Arizona Power Company. While he would not make a definite statement, he expressed himself as decidedly well pleased with the proposition, and later would submit a written report to those interested
 Mir. Reid is from Sehnectady, New York, and attending his examinations he passed on the mechanical equip ment of the company that is now in service. He is assistant engineer of the power and mining department of the General Electrical Company of that city.
 Both gentlemen expressed their sur prise over this project, and were de- cidedly impressed with the magnitude of it, and the service it is giving Aside from their professional exami- nations, they were also pleased at being permitted to see the vast min ing field adjacent to Prescott, and to learn of the wonderful resources of the country in mineral, land and range interests.
 They were accompanied on the trip to Fossil Creek and later to Jerome by R. s. Mason, chief engineer of the Electric Operating Construction Company, of 49 Wall street, New York, who is the resident engineer in Prescott of this syndicate. Six days were spent in the work of looking the enterprise over.

 MUNICIPAL TAXATION

Williams, the pretty little town on the Santa Fe, is in the throes of municipal disagreement and sev- eral of the leading attorneys of that section are in the city to look after the legal end of the mix-up that is on.
 The question is over the payment of tax money, and the matter at present il- the courts on an injune- tion that i5 on in full force.
 The matter came up yesterday in a preliminary manner, and was postpon- ed for definite hearing until some future time. Among the interested ones in the city yesterday were Geo. w. Glowner, the able attorney of the above city, while J. E. Jones of Flagstaff was also in the legar ar ray. H. L. Aphold, the efficient city clerk of Williams, was also in the city. MT. Aphold was accompanied by his wife. The above returned to their homes yesterday, with the ex- ception of MT. Jones, who went to the Capitol city.

PIMA COUNTY BOARD
 MAY FOLLOW CHA LEAD

TUCSON, Ariz., Nov. 23-In an effort to eliminate the unpleasant aroma and to avoid, if possible, the payment of present estimated amount of from $5,OO0 to $10,O0O bounty, members of the county board of supervisors are now individually planning some avenue of escape from the payment of bounties on skunks.
 Encouraged by the recent action of the court in Gila county, whereby trappers have been restrained from bringing their skunk pelts into the court house of that county, thus eliminating the necessity of paying bounties on hides of that character, the supervisors are planning to seek similar action in the local courts. With a court order refusing the ad- mittance with skunk skins in effect and with a territorial order provid- ing that the men shall bring their pelts into the court house for exami- nation before collections on them may be made, it appears that the skunk slayers in that county are strictly up against it. In this way, the Gila court house is saved from that unpleasant stench and the Gila treasur wis saved from rapid deple- tion by the payment of bounties on skunks.
 Now the Pima county supervisors are planning to dodge the thing in a similar manner. Supervisor Charles H. Bayless said: "It is up to the supervisors to device some means of eliminating the unpleasant aroma in the vicinity of the court house brought by the accumulation of skunk hides therein. Besides this the pay ment of bounties for these pelts will likely this year be terrific, unless some way to escape it is evolved. With an active crusade on skunks in this county, the supervisors will be out from $5,OOO to $10,O00 in a very few months. I do not know that the board will take any action in the matter but personally would like to see the skunk hides kept away from the court house and the boun- ties eliminated.'

FORMER RESIDENT VISITING
 IN THIS CITY

W. S. Bradford, formerly a resident of Fort Whipple, a son of Major J, H. Bradford, retired, reached the city yesterday from Copper Basin to renew associations of a day when he was much younger in years and incident ally a pupil in the public schools of this city. MT. Bradford says that since he left the life of the military, he has adopted mining as a profes- sion, and is now engaged with others in a placer pursuit in the above dis triet. He feels somewhat enthusias- tic over the future, and believes that when the auriferous soil he has To- cated is mined it will prove remuner- ative.
 The return of this young man to the old stamping ground is a pleasant event to recall in so far as the mil itary side of the. family is to be considered. His father, Major Brad ford, will be favorably remembered when the Eleventh regiment of infan- try was stationed at the above post, and who in civilian circles enjoyed an excellent name. It will be pleas ant also for his former friends and aequaintances to learn that he is living at Baltimore, Md, and is en- toying good health, being a retired officer. After leaving Prescott with his parents W. s. Bradford, who is here, entered the army later and for years was a first lieutenant of the 17th regiment of infantry. Later he resigned to enter civil life in the many pursuits that were open. His brother, however, continued with the service and is now a captain in the infantry service.
 MT. Bradford visited Fort Whipple yesterday to look over the old scenes. He found them obliterated, and all there is left of the old garrison is the memory of it. He will return to Copper Basin today and contem- plates a trip to Los Angeles in few weeks, where his wife and children are residing.

tained in the list forwarded to Sup erintendent Moore, the nature of which could not be learned.
 If the charges are proved against Mcclure his certificate will be re- voked and he will be restrained from teaching in Arizona schools. The members of the Terreitorial Board of Education, which has the matter in hand, are Dr. R. H. H. Blome, presi dent of the Flagstaff Normal school; A. J. Matthews, president of Tempe Normal; E. E. Kirkland, H. Q. Rob- ertson, superintendent of the Mesa Schools; Kirke T. Moore and J. D. Loper. It is probable that when the matter of the charges comes up be- fore the board Governor Sloan, who is a member ex-ofieio, will be pres- ent to hear them.
 In regard to the matter Superin- tendent Loper, who was on the orig inal F'discipline" committee, said:
 CT have not learned definitely the nature of the charges against Sup erintendent Mcclure, but it is known that he conducted a teachers agency. He has made no secret of it. It has beena advertised profusely. I do not consider it bad ethics. If, however, MT. Mcclure uses his teachers agen- ey to supply his own school with teachers, would consider that bad ethies-very bad. But I do not know that he has done so.
 "The whole matter will have to come before the territorial board of education. The original discipline committee asked for by Dr. Babeock would have little authority in the matter, while the territorial board has the right to revoke his certificate. AS have said, have not yet learn ed the purport of the charges against him. All I know about Mcclure is that some years ago when he applied for the Yuma schools he had some difficulty in satisfying the board that he was a college graduate. He was required to take an examination, and I will say that he passed a very good one, as far as I remember"

LANDS MAKES HOT REPLY
 TO BIG ACTION.

A sensational amended answer in the suit of Charles Stanton vs. Lee H. Landis has been filed in the dis triet court by the defendants in merchant, is accused of wilfully de- frauding the defendant and I. T. Hosey out of 5000 in the purchase of oil lands of the Olmstead estate, alleged by Tharaldson to be purehas- able for $15,OOO; but which were, in fact, bought by Tharaldson for 5000.
 The original complaint alleged that the defendant executed a promissory note to W. G. Lentz in the sum of $2150, with interest at 10 per cent, on July 6, 1907; that P. A. Tharald- son signed as surety, and the note, later, became the property of the com plainant, Stanton, and is now unpaid.
 Through his attorneys, H. P. Hayes and 'Clymer Coldren, Landis denies that TharaldssR subscribed his name as surety at the request of the de- fendants, but signed voluntarily, and that the defendant hypothecated se- curities and stocks as surety for the note.
 It is admitted that Landis neglected to pay the note when due, but for the reason that he was defrauded of the money, procured upon the exeeu- tion of this note, by fraudulent rep resentations by Tharaldson in the oil land deal. It is alleged that Tharald- son represented that the oil lands located near Santa Paula, in Ventura county, California, could be bought of the Olmstead estate for $15,00G, and that one N. Sinclair, would tack one-third interest at $5,OO0. The de- fendant and I. T. Hosey, believing the false statements of Tharaldson, agreed to take the remaining one-third interest and paid him $5OOO therefor. On August ?, 1907, it is alleged thae Tharaldson purchased all of the oil lands for $5000 and transferred them to Sinclair. The purpose was, accord ing to the allegations of the defend ant, that Tharaldson and Sinclair might get a two-thirds interest with out costing them a cent, Landis and Hosey paying the freight.
 It is further alleged in the answer that if the note was assigned to Tharaldson it, was not received in due course, but assigned after matur- ity. The defendants prays judgment in his favor against the complainant.
 The answer is similar to statements in the suit filed by Hcsey against Tharaldson.

Is a mother-in-law justified in whacking her son-in-law over the head with a milk bottle in what she considers moments which call for the exercise of strenuous methodist
 This was a question which occupied the judicial mind of Police Judge Far ley in the city court Monday after noon.
 A most unusual feature of the case was that four generations were rep resented at the trial-the two chil- dren of Young, their mother, their grandmother and their great-grand- mother.
 Frank Young, colored, had been ar rested on a charge of disturbing the peace. It was alleged that he had en- gagged in a lively encounter in which he had as his opponents his wife, his mother-in-law and his grandmother-in- law.
 The mother-in-law was the most talkative of the entire bunch. She persisted in .interrupting until the police magistrate informed her that it was not necessary for her to give instructions nor advice to the court nor in any way to interfere with the witnesses.
 When all of the testimony had been given, which was a mixture of humor and pathos, the police judge allowed Young to go with a warning that if any further complaint were made made against him he would receive 60 days on the city chain gang.

METHoDISTS WILL BUILD
 HOME FOR GIRLS.
(From Wednesdays Daily.) )


 Work will be started on the pro posed new Methodist school for Mexi can girls on East Tenth street with in the next couple of weeks, says the Tucson Star. The institution will be erected at a cost of about $16,O00 the foundation for which was laid some months ago.
 The decision to start work on this splendid school building was made re- gently by the Women's Home Mission ary society of the Methodist church and was made known to the local workers by Mrs. Anna Kent, secre- tar yof the mission work in New Mexico and Arizona and head of the bureau for Spanish work, who, with her daughter, Miss Annabelle Kent, are here for a stay of several days en route from their home in East Orange, N. J., to Pasadena, Cal, where they VIII SpenU Jue WluIoI-
 Mrs. L. G. Harris, prominently iden- tified with the Spanish mission, out lined the plans of the society. She stated that Mrs. Kent had been au- thorized to make the announcement and as a result the contract for the new building will be let very soon and work started immediately there after.
 For the past three years the local Mexican school for girls, under the direction of the Home Missionary so- ciety, has been operated in tents and in a portion of public school build ing at Fremont and Tenth streets. There has never been a dormitory, the girls having occupied tents, but a hall providing living apartments for the students will be constructed in connection with the new institution.
 Between twenty-five and thirty stu dents are receiving instructions at the Methodist institution here. With this number the capacity of the school has been taxed. The new building, how ever, will provide adequate room for a large number of girls.
 The institution is maintained by the Home Missonary society for the edu- cation and cultivation of worthy Spanish girls of the southwest. Of the twenty-five or more students at pres ent attending the school, all are of Spanish descent but one, who is of Aleutian parentage, a native of Alaska.

ENJOYABLE SMOKER
 AT YAVAPAI CLUB
Rrom Thursdays Daily

Good fellowship, excellent speeches and a general fine time were the features of the smoker rendered last evening at the Yavapai Club to the officers of the Eighteenth Infantry and to Percival Lowell of Flagstaff, the distinguished scientist of that city, who in addition to discovering the canals on Mars found out recently that a snow storm had been raging on this planet.
 Toasts were responded to by Major Kirby, Captain Evans, Judge E. M Doe and Judge J. J. Hawkins.
 The smoker was one of the most pleasing affairs that has ever been given at the Yavapai Club, which is famed for its hospitality. The smoker was attended by nearly one hundred members of the club and the merry-making continued until the clock struck twelve. It was given principally in honor of the officers of the new regiment and Dr. Lowell, who delivered a free lecture in this city last evening. His lecture was greatly enjoyed by a large audi enee.

TERRIBLE CRIME COMMITTED
 IN NEW MEXICO

SANTA FEE, N. M., Nov. 23.- Charged with the fendish murder and assault of Sallie Hatton between San ta Rosa and Los Tanos, N. NJ, Sep tember 9 last, Epimiento Sanchez was arrested yesterday at Los Col onias. San Miguel county, 40 miles from the railroad, by Mounted Police men w. E. Dudley of AlamOgordo and A. A. Sena of Las Vegas, follow ing a long and patient pursuit of their quarry by these officers. News of the arrest, with no details, was received by Captain Fred Fornoff of the mounted police in Santa Fe yes terday What will be done with the prisoner is not known. He may be brought here to be placed in the penitentiary for safe keeping and on the other hand the officers may take their prisoner to Tucumcari or Alo- morgordo.
 The officers will not take the risk of taking their man to Santa Rosa as the feeling in that section is so intense on account of the unspeaka- ble crime that lynching would eer- tainly follow.
 Mounted Policeman Dudley has been detailed on this case from the first and long after the people of Santa Rosa and Los Tanos had given up the capture of the criminal Dudley later assisted by Sena kept working quietly and industriously, picking up one clew after another and following it to the end. What the evidence is against Sanchez is not known, but it is understood to be strong.
 The story of the assault and mur- der of young and pretty Sallie Hat ton as she was riding from Santa still fresh in the public mind, one of the most terrible and cold blooded crimes ever committed in New Mex leo. The body of the girl, horribly mutllated, was found in lonely ar roya and her clothes and belongings and horse were discovered later. The trail of the murderer appeared to lead to Santa Rosa, but in spite of days of tireless searching by practi- cally all the residents of Santa Rosa and Los Tanos, the man had cover ed up his tracks so skillfully that not a trace of him could be found. Dud- ley followed one supposed clue clear to Hutchinson, Kans., only to find he was on a false scent.
 A pitiful feature of the tragedy was the death some weeks ago of the dead girls father from a broken heart, following days and days of breeding over the terrible death of his daughter.
