UNIQUE JEWELRY.
From Tnesaav,s Dallyl

George II. Freyda, the mining man of the Turkey Creek section, in addi- ton to his ability as a practical miner, is also an ingenious artisan. To prove this he is wearing one of the oldest rings ever seen in this section, in the shape of a placer production washed out of that stream by himself, re- torted in a crude vessel of his own make, moulded in dirt, and hammer ed and fitted to his finger on an old anvil It is erudely made, and has no alloy whatever, the purest piece of jewelry in gold value for its weight to be seen. Il is valued at S2O per ounce, and the ring weighs an even twelve dollars. It attracts considerable attention and the manU- facturer is complimented for his in- genuity by many who have seen it.

ID CONSTRUCT
 VERDE PLANT
From Sundav's Dailyl

D. W. Wingfeld, a young and en- ergetic resident of the Verde Valley, while in the city yesterday, made the statement that he is here to perfect plans for the installing of an ice and cold storage plant at Camp Verde immediately. The necessary machinery will be ordered, and it is his inren- ton to have the enterprise under headway inside of sixty days. The intention is to have a capacity in ice making of about 1000 pounds per day, and to utilize the cold storage for the preservation of vegetables, meats and dairy products, which is urgent in that section during the warm summer months. A big saving will result to the farmer, and he an ticipates a thrifty business. Archie Grant, the contractor, will return to the Verde tomorrow with MT. Wing field, to erect the necessary build ings.

BUILDING THE ROAD.
Frnm Sundav,s Danvl

Harry Clark of Williamson Valley has volunteered his services, and in- cidentally, his knowledge of road building, and taken charge of the road work at the Simmons crossing at that point. The county furnishes the mules and Supervisor Stewart is personally on the ground, assisting in the work. The Simmons crossing is a difficult problem to conquer, and travel over it in rainy weather is disagreeable. Nr. Clark is after a record in this particular instance, and is spurred on by his automobile, that wants good roads to go over.

ARE SOME WHAT
 PERSONAL
(From Tuesdays Daily)

Supervisor of Census Towle of Ari- zona is offering $6 per day for good, reliable men who will count noses in Arizona next April. Mr. Towle is anxious that Arizona's population will come up to the 2OO,OOO mark.
 The job is an easy one. All enum- orators have to do is to rap at each door and hogan in his district and when the lady of the house comes to the door with soap suds on her hands, is 10 ask:
 .' Are you married?"
 "What did you do it for?''
 "Didn't you know any better?"
 "Do you get enough to eat, and do you eat meat?'
 FDoes your husband beat you? If not, why not?"
 ''What church do you belong to, and why don't you change?"
 "'Do you look this way all the time, or are you just provoked about something today?"
 "'Do you use coal, or do you just get warmed up when your husband comes home hot about something?''
 ''Do you believe in the existence of supreme political power, and should women vote or eook?"
 "'Who, in your opinion, discovered the North Pole, or does your iceman demand cash?"
 '.Is your husband a married man or fnancier?'
 "Do you own your home; if so, why don't you sell it?"
 "Did you come from Missouri, or are you native born?'
 Has your husband ever been in jail? Why not?"
 An enumerator can secure this in formation in a few minutes if he is quick witted, good dodger, wears a debonair air and does not strike a "dies infaustus" and is struck by fleece homo' i. e.-the old man at home Coconino Sun.

MUCH ACTIVITY IN JEROME
 DISTRICT
(Jerome Mining News.)


 There is a good deal of work gO- ing on along the Jerome mineral belt south of this camp, and some inter- esting developments are resulting therefrom. On the Burke-Brookshire property, on Equator Hill, develop ment during the past three weeks has made a great improvement in that property, it is reported. This property has. always been considered among the most promising in the district. Worl. is also being done on the claims belonging to the Hickey estate, and it is reported that the results are very satisfactory. Far ther south the Eureka Gold and Cop per Mining company is developing its holdings. On Wednesday the editor of the News, accompanied Dr. 4. J. Nurrietta, chief surgeon of the United Verde hospital, who is also president of the Eureka company, on visit to the company's property, and the showing was so satisfactory that the directors have concluded to keep the work going indefinitely. A crosseut is being run southeast from near the face of the lower tunnel at a depth of nearly three hundred feet This cut is in about fifty feet At the forty foot point, to the surprise of those in charge, the full face of the cut was run into a body of slate and iron. in which it still continues, the percentage of iron increasing as pro gress is made. It is a well known and undeuiable fac. that the com bination of iron-slate is the mineral maker in the Jerome mineral district, and if indications that have led to pay ore bodies elsewhere in the dis trict do not go astrav on the Eureka ground, that company will have open ed up a large body of ore in a very short time. That the strike of slate and iron formation was a sur prise comes from the fact that this is the first body of slate that has been encountered on the Eureka ground. To be certain of the formation sam pies were taken from the face of the cut by President Murrietta, and were given to Assayer Reese of the United Verde Copper company, who pro- nounced it slate and iron. The cut is being run along the north wall between which and the slate there is seam of tale. The face of the cut is four and a half by six feet, all in slate and iron, and as to how far it extends southwest is not known. but as the ledge shows a width of I5O feet on the surface there is every chance for the making of large body of ore They are now approaching the zone, from which the rich outcroppings break on The company's ground. Groupings from which assays have given returns as high as sI75 per ton in gold, silver and copper. The Eureka group is today more valuable group of claims than at any time since they were located some years ago by Harry Gilmore and Charles Kenyon.

"One Touch OF Nature Makes the
Whole World Kin"

When a rooster finds big fat
worm he calls all the hens in the
farm yard to come and share it. A
similar trait of human nature is to
be observed when a man discovers
something exceptionally good-he
wants all hts friends and neighbors
to share the benefits of his discov-
try. This is the touch of nature
that makes the whole world kin.
This explains why people who have
been cured by Meritol Cough Rene
dy write letters to the manufacturers
for publication, that others similar
ly ailing may also use it and obtain
relief. Behind every one of these
