FINDS LIVE TOWN AND
 PURCHASES PROPERTY
OFrom Fridays Daily.)

Milton Tregalles, a former Pres colt business man for fifteen years, has cast his lot in Phoenix after a tour of several months throughout the Southwest, Tn search of a live city, says the Arizona Republican. This searen extended all over South ern California. After that MT. Ire galles returned to Prescott to con- slider what he should do next. He came to Phoenix early last week and concluded that nere was the live town he had been looking for.
 Within a day or two he had bought several pieces of property in different parts of the town, but his most important purchase was made through E. J. Bennitt & Co.,, consisting of a quarter block at the southwest corner of Eighth and Washington streets.
 What MT. Tregalles is going to do with the property is of more i'm portanee, especially to that immediate neighborhood, than the transaction itself. He discovered on his arrival in Phoenix that something was bad ly needed here-the apartment house. Accordingly he is going to fll that quarter of a block with handsome apartment houses.
 This work will be begun shortly. He has returned to Prescott to dis pose of some real estate he has own ed there for some time, when he will return and make other invest ments in Phoenix.
 All the purchases he has made have been for spot cash. The price of the ground at the corner of Eighth and Washington streets was S5,OOO. It has a frontage of 50 feet on Washington and 1874 feet on Eighth.

DOUGLAS TEACHER
 HAS LONELY VIGIL

DOUGLAS, Ariz., Sept. 15.-Dur- ing the last two days the teacher of the eolored school at Boneyville has maintained a solitary and lone some vigil, for no dark faced seek CTS after knowledge have yet put in an appearance.
 Upon investigation it develops that the eolored population of Douglas has banded together for the pur- pose of fighting any attempt that will be made to force their children to attend the Boneyville school. Sam Dyson, who possesses property in Douglas, stated that he considered the school had been unjustly placed where it is,and he would sacrifice every cent to his name in fighting the matter in court. The negroes claim that as many of them are property owners and taxpayers they should be given some voice in choosing the site for their school and they assert that the affair could have been amieably settled long ago had not racial prejudice been displayed toward them.
 Superintendent Lutz stated last night that if the eolored pupils did not attend the school set aside for their use, a truant officer would be sent to demand explanations from the parents.

the trip from that point to the Pa cific. They will remain until Mon day morning, returning to Prescott that evening.
 The intention is to entertain them at the Yavapai Club, upon their re- turn, and the next morning they will leave for home, with the ex- eeption of MT. Kelley, who will re- main for a few days to consider mat ters that require his personal atten- tion as president of the corpora tion, and with which he is eonver- sant.
 In speaking of his enterprise last evening, MT. Kelley was very en- thusiastic over the noteworthy de- terminations made in the past few months and since he visited the property. It is his purpose to go ahead with the exploration now un- der way, and to place modern ma ehinery on the ground. That this may be conveniently and economic ally done, the company has just finished the construction of wagon road from Harrington to their camp, distant about four and one-half miles. This avenue being available closes a vital matter for the future operation of the proposi tion. and from which the rating of the property may be regarded as one of the most attractive in the county, to warrant the heavy expenditure in road building and the contemplated introduction of heavy machinery.
 The Pacific mines in the past few months have come into prom thence in this section and are very highly regarded in mining circles in this field, from the strong ore bod ies developed at limited depth. It is the general belief of miners con versaut with that belt and the show ing made in the deeper workings of this company, that the enterprise is just entering an era that later will be substantiated as one of the most attractive in the country.
 c. W. Mitchell, prominently iden- tified with the company, and a resi- dent of Sierra Madre, Cal, met the visitors in this city, and will ae- company then to the camp this morning.

FIFTY TON MILL
 ASSURED FOR PARADISE

DOUGLAS, Ariz., Sept 15.-Para- disc is to have a fifty ton mill which will not only handle the ore of the Whitehall company, but also customs ores, thus enabling the mines with ore on their dumps to have this treated at little expense and to utilize the proceeds in fur ther development. There are many properties in the Paradise district that have larger or smaller quantities of ore not sufficiently high grade to warrant shipment to the smelters, but which it will pay well to have treated at a nearly by plant, the ex- penses of transportation being min imized in this way.
 The above announcement comes as result of the visit of F. W. Flana- gan, vice president of the Home Ma tional Bank of Stanton, Tex, to the Whitehall property and the Paradise district. He looked over the prop erty and the district and has re- turned to Texas enthusiastic.
 Before leaving Mir. Flanagan was interviewed and said that he was more than satisfied with the investi- gation which had been made during his visit to the property. "The con ditions had been rather underesti- mated than exaggerated to me and I was highly pleased with the result of my visit. The company will re- organize with H. M. Davis, also of Stanton, and who owns property up the Sulphur Springs valley, as presi- dent. I shall be one of the directors and a banker of Stanton is probably to be the treasurer. MT. Larrieu will be secretary.
 eYes, we will build a nill," con tinued Mir. Flanagan. "We have considerable ore on our dumps wait ing treatment and much more in sight and blocked out. That will keep a fifty ton mill, which we plan to build, going steadily for a while, and when we have the oppor- tunity, when not handling our own ore, mean, we will do custom work. There is much ore of this kind to be treated. I am sure that such mill in itself will be a profitable venture. Very profitable it seems to me-"
