John H. Ware, of the Chloride
Store Company, came in from Los
Angeles last night, having been called
to the Angel City by telegram an
nouncing the arrival of a bouncing
baby boy. Mrs. Ware and the baby
are getting along nicely.
Last Saturday evening large num-
Der of Kingmanites visited Yucca and
took in the big opening dance at the
Yucca Mercantile Company's new
store building. The car of the West
ern Railway was attached to a west
bound freight early in the evening
and it was filled to the standing room
limit by the pleasure seekers. They
returned in the wee sma' hours of
morning, but nevertheless report
having had the time of their lives.
A railroad man is quoted as having
had a conversation with an auditor of
the Santa Fe, who made the statement
that more freight was received at
Kingman station than at any other
station between Albuquerque and San
Bernardino and that more tickets were
sold here than at any other point
within the territory. This is a show
ing that means much when taken into
consideration that the entire business
of the town depends on the success of
mining contiguous to this place.
George Collins, only son of Mrs.
Jesse Collins, at one time teacher in
Kingman public school, was shot and
instantly killed by soldier guards at
the Folsom street warf, in San Fran
cisco, few days ago. Young Collins
deserted from the army some time ago,
but was captured and sentenced to
serve two years on Alcatraz. He was
brought to San Francisco under guard
to work on the wharf and while thus
employed was struck by one of the
guards and started TO run away when
he was fired upon by the guards.
Three bullets struck him. one piercing
his heart. Mrs. Collins, who has been
residing in Flagstaff, has gone to San
Francisco to take charge of the
remains of the poor boy. All who
know the mother will grieve with her
in this sad aff1iction.
Fitz James Mccarthy, known all
over the west under the pen name of
Fitz-Mac, arrived in Kingman Wednes-
day last from Phenix, accompanied by
J. J. Brown. of Denver. Fitz-M Mac
came here to make an examination of
mining property in this county, being
considered one of the best authorities
in the United States on copper depo-
sitions, and geology. Among all the
writer's of the inter-mountain states
Fitz-Mac is prominently the peer of
all the others on matters appertaining
to mining. His writings are smooth,
readable and instructive. During the
past two years he has been a resident
of Phenix and has added much to the
mining literature of the territory. 1t
was his articles on copper conditions
in the territory that brought Arizona
worldwide notice. He will prepare a
number of interesting articles on this
county in the near future.
w. H. Clark, supervisor of the
census for the four northern counties
of Arizona, was in Kingman several
days this week getting the enumators
started on the work of taking the
census in the county. Thursday he
started o. D. Clack, Herman G. Klieb-
err, Ross a. Blakely and Henry Lang
out into the hills. Mr.. Clack will take
the census in the Gold Basin section
and the entire north part of the county.
Ross h. Blakely will cover the east
ern part of the county, Henry Lang
the western part and Mr.. Klieber the
Wallapai district. The entire work
must be done within thirty days, which
will keep the enumerators going some.
Every assistance should be extended
to the enumerators that a more perfect
enumeration of the county be had than
that obtained ten years ago.
Diarrhoea should be cured without
loss of time and by medicine which
