ROAD REPAIRING TO ..
 BE STARTED AT ONCE
(From Fridays Daily.)

R. B. Clegg, attached to the Ter ritorial engineers office, arrived in Prescott yesterday from Phoenix, and with a complete equipment will leave today for Flagstaff, to begin the e1- tension of the road from that point to Camp Verde. In entering the new field, MT. Clegg states that the work he will direct will be repairing the old thoroughfare. This work, he anticipates, will occupy his time un- til the snow flies. When weather conditions will permit, he will re- trace his work and construct the road on permanent lines, establishing q grade that will endure against all climatic conditions.
 This section of the road will be inviting to the tourist, passing by the famous Montezuma Well, Mon tezuma's Castle and other prehis- torie attractions. It will also pass by the home of Robert Finnie, where the celebrated soda springs can be utilized for either drinking or bath ing, there being two gushers within convenient distance, both enshrouded by dense foliage. The road will go from this point up Wet Beaver Creek, and on a gentle slope ascend the Mogollon plateau, where the lofty pine is abundant all the way to the skyIght City.
 In passing onto the Mogollons at this point the intention is to con struet a new grade immediately, in order that traffic may be established by the farmers and others from the Verde Valley. At Camp Verde the building of a big bridge is to be started soon so that it will be finished when the road to Flagstaff is repaired.
 Territorial Engineer Grand will arrive from the south today, and it is believed he will soon announce his decision on the route from Pres cott to Camp Verde, and authorize the beginning of the work. With this system perfected the building of the great project will be under way from Flagstaff to Phoenix.

EXCESSIVE HEAT
 PROVES FATAL IN PHOENIX

PHOENIX, Aug. 3o.-Overcome by heat yesterday John 4. Banks, aged 4s years, died in his room at the Gil bert house in Phoenix, shortly after 9 o'clock last night and before a physician could be summoned. Coroner
 ohnstone was notified by Captain ton nOrs of the night police, and he di- reeted that the body be removed to the undertaking rooms of Moore & Me Lellan pending an inquest winch will be held this morning.
 Banks had been employed as a carpenter for several weeks on the construction of the Utley building at Adams street and Second avenue.
 Last night he lay on his bed in a ndition, which seemed to indicate that he was delirious. And when it finally dawned upon his associates that he was dangerously i'll, he was breathing his last. An hour after death had ensued his temperature was about 11O, the highest register ing point of a clinical thermometer.
 When it was seen that the man was actually dead the police were notified and Captain Connors went to the house and took charge of the body pending instructions from Cor Oner Jobnstone.
 For several weeks banks had been living apart from his family, which consisted of his wife, three sons and two daughters. Mrs. Banks and the children still occupy the family home at 7O7 West Washington street. When informed of the death of her husband by a reporter for The Re publican, Mrs. Banks was grief stricken as were the other members of the family. Mrs Banks said they had been married twenty-three years. She said her husbands father is living at Seymour, Mo, and request ed that he be notified of the death of his son.
 Mir Banks had resided in the southwest for many years and was at one time the superintendent of the Flour Gold Placer Mining com pany. Besides his widow, Mrs. Mat tie L. Banks, he leaves the following sons and daughters: Robert. an electrician employed by the Thoma Electric and Manufacturing com pany; Nellie, cashier at Goldwater's, Ethel, stenographer for Drs. Bau- champ and Jessop; Pearl and Otis, at home. No funeral arrangements will be made until communication is had with the father of the dead man.

LON D. HALL BUYS
 THE LOGOS MINES
Announces That Development Will Be Resumed at Once on Larger
 Scale Than Ever
From Saturdays Daily)

Announcement was made yester- day by Lon D. Hall that he had taken over the Logos mnes, eight miles southeast of Mayer, and that he will begin operations on a larger plan than any tver before attempted on the property. He will send sev- eral miners to the camp today, with large stock of supplies, and in a few days will establish his head quarters there to direct development.
 MT. Hall returned a few days ago from San Francisco and after his arrival completed the transfer and the financing of the property, which is owned by W. H. Bunte and F. E. Andrews of this city. The Logos is one of the best known copper properties in the Big Bug district, having been under systematic devel- opment for over five years. It has attractive ore showings at all points opened.

ANOTHER ROAD TO
 WALNUT GROVE PROPOSED
From Wednesdays Daily)

| Advocates of wagon road commun- ication between Prescott and Walnut Grove, residing in the Jersey Lily section, are entering into a general discussion in favor of their section as offering the most feasible route. During the past week the matter was the subject of a general ean- vass and will probably be presented to the Board of Supervisors later for consideration.
 Arriving from his camp at the Independence mine, yesterday, J. A. Forbes made an interesting state ment on the proposition, saying that from what he personally knew of the route down the Hassayampa by the Mahard camp, it was prohibitive, first, from the inaeeessibility of the country, and second, the cost would be very heavy for the first eight miles. But concerning the route by the Jersey Lily mine to the Grove, it is a fact that with the expendi- ture of a nominal sum of money the route can be built. In addition, it would prove an economic roadway, being out of range of washouts and having no watershed of any extent. The soil is adapted to building a fine grade on a low percentage basis. Besides, the route is known to be the only direct one between the two centers. This is known by many, and horsemen daily travel over it going to and from this city.
 MT. Forbes also states that the present heavy grade leading out of the Hassayampa south can easily be remedied, and he would suggest that John Kelly, who is developing mines in the district, be consulted, as one who is familiar with the topography of the road from one end of to the other and who can make the neces- sary recommendations to relieve team ing at the worst points. The cost of this work will also be very low, there being no heavy excavation at any place.
 Between Prescott and the Jersey Lily the old grade withstands many years of neglect, and with a small outlay in repairs can be made a good route.
 While MT. Forbes states he has nothing but the welfare of the two communities at heart, it is his firm conviction that if it is the desire of the board to link Prescott and Wal nut Grove with the shortest, best and cheapest route, the Jersey Lily road offers the only solution of the problem.

having operated successfully in sev-
 eral of the Western states and also
 South America, his word on the
 country through which the new rail
 road will pass may be taken as
 among the best and most truthful
 He says that this country is with out question the richest he has ever seen and that millions of dollars will probably be taken out this fall and winter. At present the heat is in- tense and makes development rather slow and the miners are hard to keep upon the job. But the whole district will be alive with activity early in the fall, when cooler weather sets in.
 As news is difficult to obtain in this La Paz country on account of the disposition of the operators to keep everything quiet for their own benefit to get a man like Grimsley to tell the truth about it is to offer the mining people in general a rare treat.
 Grimsley gave a list of the eom- panies now operating in the La Paz district, the most of which are on placer ground, but a few upon the lodges. Among the companies are the Mammoth Gold, operating a ten horse power gas engine; the Valensnalla Copper, at Ehrenburg, operating five gas engines; the Marquette Gold and the Guadanaulipe Gold; the Success Copper company, which has done con- siderable development work and is operating 8 12 horse power gas en- zine; the Belle of Arizona, with two gas engines; the Smith mine (gold with a steam hoist; the Goodman mine, with W. E. Scott in charge; the Interstate Gold Dredging, now extracting einnabar and gold; the Stronghold Gold company; the Cnoullis plaeers, the Interstate plae- CTS, Fregells plaeers, working dry wash and operating pipe line; Browns Gold, with a large amount of development done. Grimsley says the last porperty mentioned was sold to the present owners for $15O,OOO.

MOHAVE DELEGATE
 VISITS PRESCOTT
Says That Discretion Should Prevail In Framing a Constitution For
 The New State
From Saturdays Daily)

He expressed himself yesterday firmly that it will be his purpose to treat the question in a broad way, while the many issues that have arisen, and which are being gener- ally discussed in the press and on the platform, will be relegated to the future, if the occasion arises for their consideration at that time. In other words, MT. Lovin is emphatic in a sincere desire to get the Terri tory going as a State, and in order to accomplish that purpose, says that care and discretion must pre- vail in the law making body that paves the way when the convention assemblies later to mould the sacred work of the future.
 MT. Lovin did not express his dis approval of anything contained in the many platforms issued, but on the other hand, believed that the main question centered around the creating of a Constitution that would meet the approval of the powers that be at Washington, and in order that a prompt response should meet the work ahead in Arizona, every step taken by the law makers in the next few months, should be measured cautiously and intelligently for the single purpose of reaching the goal of Statehood, and without being bur dened with any trimmings that would result in its rejection by either the Senate or the President.

Adherents of a "safe and sane" Constitution for the new State of Arizona will be pleased and gratified to learn that Henry Lovin of Mo- have county, who has been nomin- ate by the Democrats to represent their interests in the Constitutional convention, and who in all probabil- ity will be chosen for that impor- tant post of duty, in view of the Republican party of that county not making any selection for the office, yesterday in Prescott openly and freely gave expression to the stand he will take when the convention assemblies. MT. Lovin, in addition to his recognized leadership as a politician in Democratic circles, also enjoys an excellent name in the in dustrial life of the neighboring eoun- ty, being identified with mining en- terprises and other established busi- HcSs Puisuits- ACCOIulns4yJ He IeC- ognizes the importance of the mat ters that are to be discussed, and in harmony with his conservative re- gard for the bona fide interests of the county, and a patriotic desire to have a new star on the flag, has openly and without hesitation ex- pressed himself as not favoring any code of laws that will constitute a condition in the Constitution that will serve as barrier to the grant ing of Statehood.

HEALY IS HELD ON
 PERJURY CHARGE
From wednesday's Daily

(From Wednesdays Daily)
 J. J. Healy is again in the meshes of the law, this time to answer to the charge of perjury, alleged to have been committed in the recent trial, at Bouse, when he accused several residents of Parker with crminally assaulting aim, in adaisioR to ordering him out of the country, which charges were ignored. Healy, according to the evidence he gave at that trial, is said to have made eer- tain statements which later were not corroborated, even in his own hand writing. that was introduced, hence the swearing of a complaint for his arrest.
 E. S. Clark represents the com olaining witnesses, and the trial is set for today before the justice of the peace at Bouse. MT. Clark left for that place last evening. T. F. Me Luaghlin was subpoenaed as a wit ness and accompanied MT. Clark.
 Practically every male resident of Parker will be present as witnesses, as well as many other residents along the A. & c. railroad.
 The case against Healy grows out of the publication in the Parker Herald of last April of a defama- tory article published against a most estimable woman residing in that city.
 Commenting on the Healy case, the Yuma Enterprise says:
 "We are told that on the stand in House, Healy denied that he ever told any newspaper reporter that he had been hanged by the neck. If true he most certainly perjured him self, for he made that carge to the local scribe of this sheet, not only once, but several times, and severl other wild statements also that branded him as one who cares less for the truth than any man should. One of his yarns here that origin ated in his brain while liquor had the upper hand of him, was that the citizens of Parker had dumped his outfit into the river, press, type, and all, and even promised the scribe to produce a telegram from his wife that this had been done, but the necessary paper was not produced.
 "We don't want to kick a dog when he is down, or we would print the text of a telegram which he wrote in our presence, passed to us to read and then paid the telegraph operator the toll and had it forward ed to his wife. But we hope that he can have no more strings to pull that will get other and better men in financial trouble over his own worthless carcass. May he find his level and stay there is all the tax payers of Yuma county ask'

 KEENLY REGRETTED
From Fridays Daily)


 Chief of Police Fred Hawkins of Jerome, in speaking yesterday of the sad death of Night Officer King, which occurred Wednesday morning, as the result of being shot by Chavez last Saturday night, states that the city is shrouded in the deepest gloom that it has ever experienced. The tragedy has taken on a phase in which every one of the law abiding people keenly feel the loss, and to which is added the kindliest of sym pathy to the dead officers heart broken wife.
 Chief Hawkins states that the bullet entered MT. Kings body from the right side, low down, and crash ed through many vital organs, until it lodged on the opposite side, less than an inch from the surface. MT. Kings wonderful physical vitality prolonged his life for four days of intense suffering. Until a few min utes before the end came, he was conscious and aware that ne could not survive.

WAsHoUTs STOP
 TRAFFIC ON SANTA FEE

Tuesday night, in the vicinity of Crookton, on the main line of the Santa Fe, tremendous rain storms occurred, ripping away 100 feet of the railroad track, while later in the night, at Ludlow, Cal, west of Cadiz, a similar disturbance took place, damaging the track so that trains were unable to proceed. All overland trains, in consequence, were detained over eight hours, and for time it was the purpose to again detour through Prescott.
 The break at Crookton was repair ed sufficiently yesterday afternoon to renew traffic, and several trains held at Ash Fork were sent west.
 The point damaged at Crookton was the same place so seriously washed out about a month ago. The rain was reported as the heaviest that has ever been known in that section, the main fall taking place south of the right of way, and ex- tending into the Juniper Mountains and also reaching this city in Jesse, quantities.
 This is the third time this summer that Crookton has been the scene of serious trouble to the Santa Fe through washouts.
