Sheriff Walter Brown returned
early this week from a trip to his
cattle ranch in Coconino county. He
reports the feed excellent on the
range, but that rain is badly needed
to fill the tanks.
Fred II. Stull was here from Chlor-
ide the first of the week. Mr.. Stull
has been leasing on the Lucky Boy
group of mines the past year and has
been quite successful.

a TWiSter.

An eighty mile wind visited the
camp of the Expansion Gold Mines
company at Union Pass, last Sunday
evening and unroofed the mill builC-
ing, twisted the precipitating house
into kindling wood, and carried two
heavy wooden cyanide tanks down the
canyon. At seven O'Clock in the even
ing there was not breath of air stir
ring and at half past seven the gale
struck the place and the damage was
done in an instant. The heavy wind
was felt all over the county, but this
is the only place that reports damage.
1t is thought that the roof. tanks and
precipitating house can be replaced
for COOS.

School Entertainment.

Last evening Kingman school gave
its usual yearly entertainment, the
event taking place in Elks Opera
House. The large edifce was crowd
ed to the ooors. even the entrance and
antirooms of the theater being filled
with enthusiastic friends of the school.
Every one of the children deported
themselves in the various parts in a
way that brought down the house.
The music was excellent, the fairies,
brownies, gypsies and soldier boys
took their parts well, and the singing
was most pleasing. Taken as a whole
the performance reflected great credit
on teachers and children, and brought
the teachers and partents in closer
touch and fellowship. These enter
tainments are good things and the
teachers are to be congratulated on
bringing about last nights success.

Mining Compared With AgrieuIture.

The reports of the different depart
ments of the government for the year
1909 show the values of all mining
products to aggregate the total of a
little more than two billions of dollars,
while agricultural products total be-
tween seven and eight billions of dol
lars. The wages paid the men en-
ployed in these pursuits and charged
up against production amounted to the
following sums: Mining, S63.500, COOS;
agriculture, 735, OOO,OJOS. While more
men were employed in agriculture the
wage paid was far less. Mining fur
nishes from IS to 20 per cent of the
freight traffic of the railroads, CON-
pared with less than nine per cent
from agriculture. The manufactures
growing out of mining furnishes en-
ployment to ten times more people
than that growing out of the agricul-
tural industry.

A small hosting plant was hauled

where a shaft is to be sunk and the

Capt Ike Conkey is visiting in King
man, having sold his mercantile bust
ness at Mineral Park to J. B. Hughes.
Capt. Conkey has carried on the business
at the Park when it had few inhabit-
ants and gradually built up his bust
ness to meet the new demands. He
has world of friends among the peo-
pie of this country that will wish him
well in any venture he may undertake
in future.
1t is probable that the new census of
Mohave county will show in excess of
5000 people, and it is certain that
several hundred were overlooked on
account of the large area apportioned
to some of the enumerators and the
lack of knowledge of the various
camps and canyons of the district in
which miners were employed on their
own claims. With proper enumera-
tion it is more than probability that
this county would show close to 5000
souls.
In sinking the air shaft on the Line
Road mine, of the Gold Road NJ. & E.
company's estate, at Goldroad, nine
feet of ore has been cut at a depth of
800 feet that gives an average above
twelve dollars to the ton. with no
walls in sight. At the level above the
ore averaged eighteen feet in width, !
while on tie 6 o level below this point
the ore still retained its width of eigh-
teen feet and gave values of about the |
same as at the 300. The company is |
also raising at this point with the |
object of connecting the shaft for air
and at the sane time prove up the |
ground throughout the area reached |
from this point. The company is
proving up all the ground throughout
the territory between the 500 level of
the Goldroad and the 100 level of the
Billy Bryan, distance of about 1000
Iett. Practically all the ground open
ed by the drift has been proven to be
ore bearing. 1t is under stood that
east of the GOldroad shaft the vein
divides and only one of these veins
has beeh developed by the drift. al
though an effort is now being made to
take in the other part of the vein by
c osscut. The mine is now producing
far in excess of the ability of the mill
to assimilate, but this will soon be
remedied by the new unit that is to be
put into commission some time this
summer. The new addition to the
big mill will handle about $50 tons
daily and this additional amount can
be taken care Of by the tube mill.

P. n. Mclaughlin, superintendent
of the c. o. D. mine, was in Kingman
yesterday and reports that good pro-
gress was being made in the drifts
from the 100 level of the new shaft.
The west drift is showing ore in the
heading. while the entire bottom of
the drift shows high grade of ore.
These drifts have been run east and
west on the ledge from the shaft sixty
feet. The east drift shows the high
grade of ore practically all the way and
large tonnage is already opened up.
Another lift of 100 feet is to be sunk
and the drifts are to be carried into
the new ground. When the shaft has
reached a depth below the old work
ings of the property and the mine
drained the old Slopes will be cleared
and the ore in that part of the mine
stoped out and sent to the surface,
where it will be milled. This part of
the mine shows big tonnage.
Superintendent Hoffman. of the
Needles Mining & Smelling company,
is rushing work on the old Cincinnati
mine, overlooking Mineral Park from
the south, and is getting big results.
Sixteen feet of shippable ore has been
opened in the property, while four
foot streak in the mine shows values of
sos in gold and silver. The mine is
one of the largest veins of ore in that
section and with the reduction facili-
ties of the company behind it ought to
pay big. The ore carries a small |
amount of copper, lead, and over forty
per cent iron, making it ideal smelling
ore.
Congressman Cameron has intro
duced bill in congress appropriating
$50, OOOS for the purpose of sinking ar
tesian wells in Wallapai and Sacra-

would make the valleys of the terri
tory the garden spots of the southwest.
Arizona has some of the richest valley
in the world, and with a sufficient sup
ply of water would be capable of sup
porting great population. We hope
the bill will become law.
Frank R. Sperl, one of the owners of
the tungsten mines, near Yucca. is in
Kingman. The tungsten mines owned
by Messrs. Sperl and Dudek have
strong indications of being among the
largest deposits of that metal in the
territory and if operated on a large
basis should yield large tonnage of
the metal. The vein system has been
traced a distance of twelve miles I'D
the Wallapai mountain and some good
shOwings have been found many miles
from the original discoveries.
C. B. Van Deman and wife, of Jack
sonville, Florida, arrived in Kingman
a few days ago and will make this
place their home. The couple will be
most desirable addition to Kingman
society. Mr.. Van Deman will engage
in mining in the county, having inter
ests at the present time in the Weaver
district.

MAKE A COLLEGE TO ORDER.
Oregon Follows Example of Trinity In

North Carolina.
Announcement Of; the plan to make to
order n college. in Oregon under the lead
ership of Professor. William Trufant
Foster recalls other examples of Amer
lean educational institutions which have
been built around ample entowments.
While there is none, perhaps, so en-
tirely made to, order, as Reed college
will be, Trinity college at Durham,
N. c., furnishes q somewhat parallel
case in that the old basis of a pow
erty stricken Methodist Episcopal
school was practically of no financial
Importance when the new patrons be-
gan to pour money into the treasury a
dozen or more. years ago.
The tobacco manufacturing family
of Dukes, sinY Durham, caused Trinity
college to be transplanted from a coun-
try town to the tobacco center, and
there, practically under the walls of a
great cigarette factory, has been built
a totally new,s. Trinity, with ample
funds, talented professors and elabo-
rate laboratory equipment.
The president, who has been the
Dukes educational spender, is the
Rev. John Q. Kilgo.
Trinity now has about 4T5 students
and nearly forty members of the fac
ulty. In proportion to its numbers 1t
is the best endowed college in the
south and one of the wealthiest any
where, and the money continues to
come in as fast as it is needed.

"sEND ME- BACK TO MINORS"
So Requested 5Iackburne, $500 Short
stop, of White Sox President.

So Requested BIackburne, $500 Short
stop, of White Sox President.
Russell Blackburne. the Chicago
Americans young shortstop, for whom
President Charles Comiskey paid
$500 last fan, yearns to go back to
the minor leagues. Blackburne asked
to be returned TO the Eastern league,
but his request was refused Comiskey
considering him too good a baseball
player to lose att the present time.
With only three years experience in
baseball and only few months play
with a major league team. Blackburne
feels that he can be OF greater service
to the White Sox ultimately by play
ing the remainder of the season with
a minor league team, where he will be
kept in tina game constantly. He wants
TO help the White Sox, he says, and
believes he can make more rapid
strides and be of greater service to
the team by a little more experience
with the minors.
Blackburne came to the White Sox
at the beginning OF the present season
from the Providence team of the East
ern league. He was distinct sensa-
ton on that club, fielding in phe-
nomenal manner and batting at a good
average Since coming to the White
Sox Blackburne has had a checkered
career of successes and reverses.
