tion that led to his arrest, as the sus- pect brought here yesterday was sans a moustache.
 It is claimed by the officers that the suspect had his moustache shaved off near Needles by a Pullman car porter.
 It is said also that the suspect is South Carolinan. He speaks with a strong Southern accent, but contend ed to the officers at Williams that they had mistaken him for another party.
 Following the lively exhibition which the suspect gave the officers at Williams, no chances were taken with him, and he was brought to this city securely handeuffed.
 It is said that when the handcuffs were put on the suspect he endeav- ored to make indents on his wrists, and then claimed the handcuffs were hurting him. His action was noticed, however, by an officer, and his play failed to make any impression.
 The climax of the alleged whole sale smuggling of Chinks into this country came when fourteen half starved Orientals were found in a box ear in Los Angeles, having been shipped secretaly from Fl Paso. It is alleged that the Chinamen were brought across the Texas line from Mexico, under cover of darkness, and then placed in a box car and con signed to San Francisco, as ordinary freight. They were discovered by vigilant immigration officers in Los Angeles, however, and are now held in jail in that city.
 The suspect, whom the officers claim is Wallace, is said to have had his headquarters in Chihuahua, Mex leo, and it is alleged that he was one of the leading spirits in a ring that smuggled Chinamep into this country across the Texas border. on a whole sale scale.
 It is probable that the suspect will be taken to Los Angeles, but pending further orders from Washington he will be held in the county jail here. It is expected that an order, how ever, for his removal either to Fl Paso or Los Angeles will be speedily re- ceived.

FUNERAL OF PIONEER.
CFrom Frtdav's Dallyl

Many friends of the late Nelson Gable were present yesterday when his funeral took place from the Ruff ner parlors, and sorrow was generally expressed over the loss of this well known and popular pioneer. No rela- tives were present, telegrams from brother at Spokane, Wash, and a nephew, Joseph E. Brown of Secra- mento, Cal, being received, to bury the body in this city, as they were unable to be present. Rev. Clyde w. Deming of the Methodist Episcopal church, oficiated, and interment was had in the Citizens Cemetery. A pleasing feature of the funeral was the large numbers of acquaintanees who came from the districts adjacent to Prescott to pay their last respects. The pallbearers were John Kinney, George Merwin, Joe Wilson, Mir. Birch, II. E. Applustill and c. R. Wallace.

STEADY SHIPMENT
 FROM TIGER PROPERTY
(From Fridays Daily.)

For the second time this week the Tiger Gold company, at Harrington, sent in another shipment of gold bull lion that reached $2,5OO in value, and car load of concentrates the value of which could not be learned.
 The grade of the bullion shows the milling to have been of the highest order, and four bars were in the shipment. The Tiger people have recently resumed operations on their property, and the statement is made that it is their purpose to keep mine work up and to run their mill stead fly. A big supply or ore is shown from late development, and the enter prise is said to be in better shape than for several months, new exploita- tion giving the property an attractive rating.
 The Prescott National Bank, which received the bullion, made public the receipt of another small bar of gold bullion from a new enterprise on Lynx Creek, that went to ounces, taken from a test run of a few tons of ore. The name of the mine was not learn ed, the yield coming from the sur face, and treated as more of a determ- ming factor of the character of the mineral values carried than as a ton mage proposition.
 With the weekly shipments from the Congress, Poland, Tiger Gold com pany, the Sunnyside, Dyson, Taylor & Conner, and others, that are now firm ly established as gold bullion pro- ducers, nearly 1000 ounces per week are coming into the city. Added to this is the steady flow of placer dust, making in all combination of gold values that gives to this city a splen- did rating as the center of a field that is coming rapidly to the front in mining the yellow metal.

SWANSEA NOW ON
 THE RAILROAD ROUTE

ROUSE, Ariz., Feb. 24.-George Mitchell of the Clara Consolidated, has been busy for some days putting the finishing touches on the Arizona & Swansea railway, which was com pleted to Swansea February 21, at 6:2O p. m., and regular trains will be running in a few weeks, the regular freight and passenger schedule talk ing effect on the 25th.
 The completion of the railroad to Swansea with the assurance that the smelter will be completed as early as the balance of the material for this purpose can be transported, gives the A. & c. country a greater impetus than has ever been witnessed, and has attracted the attention of mining men from all parts of the country.
 Foreman Tinkham of the Barthol- omew group, reports a good strike of copper ore at a new working on the ground which is a very high grade glance and red oxide, carrying some gold values, and a shipment will soon be ready for the Swansea smelter.
 From all indications a large force of men will be put on the Excelsior group, known as the Mudersbaeh prop erty, a deal having lately been made on this property by eastern parties through Ralph Cameron. Bunk and cook houses have already been erect ed and everything made ready for ac- tive development work.
 The Pay Car mine has a force at workin sinking a working shaft on the Francis group, and the mine is prov ing up very satisfactorily, with every indication that sulphide will be de- velOped at no great depth. This IS proving one of the most promising properties in the district, and the stockholders are well pleased with re- suits so far obtained.
 The Little Butte, adjoining the Pay Car, is working a small force of men on one of the upper levels, being hand icapped on the lower workings on account of not having sufficient pump capacity to unwater the shaft. As soon as their large pump arrives it is expected they will again begin active operations.
 The Brayton Commercial company and the Morley Mercantile company have disposed of their stock of lumber to the Bouse Lumber company, a con- eern owned by local capital, and under

CHAPARRAL NOW
 COMING TO FRONT
(From Fridays Daily.)

(From Fridays Daily.)
 O. B. Marshall, who is visiting the city from his mining camp in the Chaparral section, gives an interest ing account of development on not only his own properties, but of the district generally.
 He continues work on his group, located in the northeastern part of that field, and is taking out ore that will run to values in gold as high as $1O per ton. Recently he struck s vein fourteen inches wide while drift ing from the main shaft fifty feet in depth, and speaks of the new strike as one of the most favorable able indications of the property he has yet encountered. He has good tonnage on his dumps, and will ship to the Humboldt shelter.
 MT. Marshall is an enthusiast on the future Of that section, passing his be- lief on a personal investigation of the field, and particularly so those mines that have reached depth. The miner of the district is especially fav' Ored in having a market so close as Humboldt which will reduce transpor tation to a minimum in the shipment

UNITED VERDE WAS
 MILLION PRODUCER

NEW YORK, Feb. 24.-Figures given out today at the annual meet ing of the United Verde Copper com pany, which is controlled by former Senator William A. Clark of Montana, show that the company paid to Clark in 1909 dividends aggregating $2,2s6,- 531. It is probable that he got more from the company, but that repre- sents the dividends on 254,059 shares, which he holds in his name. She company has 3OO,OOO shares of par value of $10 each, but has only a dozen stockholders, several of whom are regarded as dummies.
 About 1885 Clark bought the United Verde property in Jerome, Ariz., for S300,00O. The mine was discovered in 1880 and worked from 1883 to 1885, when it closed because it did not yield sufficient silver and gold to pay. Clark then took hold of it on account of its copper deposits. The mine began paying dividends in 1892 at the rate of 25 cents a share a month, or 30 per cent year. In 1899 it paid dividends of s4,49s,6sO on it's capital of $3,OOO,OOO. Since then its dividends always have been high, and most of the profits went to Clark. In 1909 the dividends were 75 cents a share monthly, or 90 per cent year. A block of 1O,516 shares stands in the name of W. A. Clark, Jr.
 The United Verde, located at Jer- ome, has long been standby of Yav- apai county, and worked first as gold proposition, at depth turned out to be bonanza in copper.

HUMBOLDT BUYER
 LOOKS OVER FIELD
(From Fridays Daily.)

" iAOAh LAAudg Odllysy
 Preceding the blowing in of the Humboldt shelter, which will take place within the next few weeks, an ore buyer for the company is said to be making a general investigation of the mineral resources of the eoun- ty, and as far as it is practicable at this time to secure definite data from the miner of the available ore sup ply that can be given from his prop erty.
 A careful investigation is being made of several mines that are under operation, and many ore dumps are subjected to a practical investigation as to the character of the output. No contracts are being made, how ever, and neither is the shipment to Humboldt authorized at this time.
 This movement is significant of the intentions of the company for the future operation of the gigantic plant, and is creating in mining circles a decidedly favorable belief as to the methods that will prevail when the enterprise formally announces the opening of the market at Humboldt for the receiving of ores for treat ment. From all portions of the coun- ty reports are received of the daily resumption of mine work, and the output that is following development.
 In several instances a heavy ton mage is shown, while in others a lesser volume is ready for the mar ket. There is no disgusting the i'm portant fact that through the in fluence of the rebuilding of this smelter more men are at work and a bigger yield is to be seen on individ ual propositions than has been evi- dent in the past three years in this section of the territory. Back of this wholesome movement, the stabil- ity of the smelter plant, and the earn est and practical management behind it, is the incentive that spurs the miner to dig and take out his producs and get it to the market again.

ing school or college, or sick in a hospital, such absent person is to be enumerated and included with other members of the family. But a son or daughter regularly living in an other locality should not be counted with the family at home.
 Servants, laborers or other em- ployes, who live with the family, and sleep in the same house or on the premises, should be enumerated with the family.
 The Census Bureau states that there will be, on the other hand, a certain number of persons present and perhaps lodging and sleeping in districts at the time of the enumeration who do not have their usual places of abode there. These are not to be enumer- ated. It must be assumed that they will be enumerated elsewhere. The eanvassers should not, therefore, un- less it is practically certain that they will not be enumerated anywhere else, enumerate or include with the mem bers of a family they are enumer- ating any of the following classes:
 Persons visiting a family.
 Transient boarders or lodgers who have some other or permanent place of abode.
 Students or children living or board ing with a family in order to attend some school, college, or other educa- tional institution in the locality but not regarding the place as their home.
 Person who take their meals with family but lodge or sleep else where.
 Servants, apprentices, or other per sons employed by a family and work ing in the house or on the premises, but not sleeping there; or
 Any person who was formerly in a family, but who has since become a permanent inmate of an asylum, home for the aged, re- formatory, prison or any other insti- tuition in which the inmates may re- main for long periods of time.

The explicit and lengthy printed instructions to the census enumer- ators, which have been prepared by
 the United States Census Bureau, give clear idea of the character of the answers expected from the people of the United States with regard to the questions in the population sched- ule to be called in the Decennial Census April 15, next.
 All answers are to have reference solely to the "Census Day." which is April 15. Persons living on that day, but who died after it and be- fore the enumerators call, are to be counted, but persons born after April 15 are not to be included in the count. Persons who were single on April 15, are to be reported as sin gle, even though they have married subsequently, and before the canvasser has called. This is true, similarly, of persons who became widowed or divorce dafter April 15.
 The census law provides that all persons shall be enumerated at their "usual place of abode'' on April 15. This means the place where they may be said to live or belong or the place which is their home As a rule, the usual place of abode is not the place where a person works or where he eats, but where he regularly sleeps. The enumerators are cautioned, how ever, that where a man happens to sleep at the time of the enumera- ton may not be the place where he regularly sleeps.
 There will be a number of persons having their usual places of abode in enumeration districts who will be absent April 15. These are to be in- eluded and enumerated after the facts them have been obtained from their families, relatives, aequaint- anees, or other persons able to give the information. For instance, if a member of any family in an enum eratiOn district is temporarily away from home on a visit or on business, or travelling for pleasure, or attend

Dressed in the latest fashion, and carrying himself with a jaunty air, a stranger was brought to Prescott, yes terday morning by Deputy United States Marshal Reddick from Williams, where he had been captured by I'm migration Inspector Thiess, following an exciting chase.
 The stranger gave his name as John Oliver. The officials claim that he is none other than W. W. Wallace, better known as "Chick" Wallace, fnancier of one of the most gigantic rings for smuggling Chinese into this country that has ever come to the notice of officials of the immigration department.
 The capture of the suspect at Will Hams was not accomplished without considerable excitement. The pros pect of being placed behind the bars did not appeal to the man, and he put up a determined resistance, but was finally landed behind the bars. The United States officials were immedi- ately notified of the capture.
 Deputy United States Attorney John c. Forest was immediately wired by the government officials, both at Fl Paso and Los Angeles, to see that the suspect was held and that he was placed in a jail where he would be safely held.
 Following these wires, MT. Forest gave instructions that the suspect should be brought to Prescott, and placed in the county jail here.
 Wallace, or Oliver, as he claims to be, was arrested in Williams, while travelling on a Santa Fe passenger train. A full description of the man had been wired to officials along the Santa Fe from Los Angeles, as the California officials had learned that their much-wanted man had started east. A Pullman ticket, as well as a railroad receipt for first class railroad fare to Prescott, were found among the effects of the suspect.
 According to the description wired from Los Angeles, Wallace, or Oliver was wearing a moustache. It was specifically stated that his nose wa: of pronounced curvature.

of the ores, a potent factor in mine determination, while the nearby rail road will permit of another avenue in bringing in the customary supplies for operating the mine at a corre- spondingly low price.
 Under these conditions, and the good showing of all properties under operation, he entertains the well founded belief that it will be one of the most active and prosperous re- gions in distinctively gold produc- tion sense in the county, before many months have passed.
