GOOD OUTLOOK.
(From Fridays Daily)

James E. Bark, one of the lead
 ing business men of Mayer, and 8 progressive citizen, was an arrival yesterday on business. He speaks in good terms of the steady growth of that section in its varied lines of business, and anticipates a lively center when various enterprises are under operation, as contemplated. The resumption of the old Rigby works on plans decided upon through the creation of the Mayer Mining and company, signalizes the be- ginning of one of the greatest pro- jects that has ever been effected for that community, and that it will be a success is practically assured from the heavy tonnage of ores avail able in that immediate section.

GRAND MOUNTAIN MAKING
 VERY GOOD SHOWING
0rom wss...s.y. Daily,

Returning yesterday from an in
 speetioR of the interests of the Grand
 Mountain Mining company, near Me Cabe, J. T. Rader, the second vice president of that corporation, ex- pressed himself as satisfied with his enterprise, and confident that it is entering a career that indicates the future success of the enterprise. This belief is supported by what is in evidence, and from what has been accomplished in the past few months, under the personal direction of F. L. Dwight, who is on the ground con- ducting the exploitation.
 Extensive development has result ed, and every department is in good shape, with a conservative regard shown. in the disposition of the cap ital used. The yield that is coming from the deeper workings carries a good ore, and the excellent condition of the work proves the wisdom of the outlay of money. Mir. Rader, is emphatic in stating that ne is satis- fled with his investment, and be- lieves that others with him will also endorse that belief after an exam ination of the interests. This is the second trip he has made to the prop erty in the past seven months, and after short business engagement in the East, will return to this section for a more extended stay.
 He is favorably impressed with Prescott, saying that its neat ap- pearance and it's well constructed buildings are a revelation to all who come to the country, and to which is linked the finest climate in the na- ton, making a combination that will 1 sooner or later be the avenue to at | traet thousands of people.
 MT. Rader was accompanied to the ,ity by Mir. Dwight, and left last light for southern Arizona, en route Q his home in Philadelphia.

FIRST TRIP MADE IN
 THIRTY-NX YEARS
(From Fridays Daily.)


 After thirty-six years residence ir Arizona, every day of which wa: passed under the soft shadow of the Sierra Priettas, Mrs. J. c. Snow, one of the estimable pioneer women of the Territory, yesterday broke the charm of her long residence, and left for Los Angeles. Interest follows the departure of this woman,' as it is the first time in all of those long years that she has expressed her will ingness to leave, and in taking the trip to the coast she has a pleasant mission to Perform-that of meeting relatives whom she has not seen since she was a young girl.
 Arriving in this section in the early days, when the Apache was triumph ant, and following the progress of civilization step by step, sne is imi bued after SO many years of con tinuous residence to revive the early scenes of her girlhood and again greet those who were familiar.
 Mrs. Snow entered Arizona as all pioneers did in that fsrsway day, crossing the desert in a freight wagon. The journey was long and tedious, and the route she takes on a return trip, with the iron horse as the propelling influence, carries her again for a long distance over the old route of the wagon train.
 Her many friends in the city will be pleased to learn of this journey, and extend to ner all the pleasures that await her at the end. She was accompanied by her son, James Nor ren.

(Erom saturday's DaiI1l


 Unaware of their incarceration 1T the county jail, as a result of theil holding up the NJ. & P. train some time ago, Mrs. Nettie Woodson o1 Sophia, Oklahoma, three days ago wrote a letter to her eldest son Ernest Woodson, advising him tc keep out of trouble and requesting him to guard carefully the younger boy, Oscar, who is also here, says the Phoenix Gazette.
 The letter was sent in care of Mahlon Brown at Tempe, for whom the Woodson boys worked up to the day before the train robbery. The letter was brought to the sheriff $ office this morning by Mir. Brown and after being opened by the authorities, as is the custom with all incoming and outgoing mail at the office, was turned over to the two Woodson boys in their cell
 The oldest boy read the letter and without comment turned it over to the younger boy who read it care fully, also failing to make any com ment after perusing the epistle. ',
 The letter was written by Mrs Woodson three days ago from her home in Sophia and at that time she was not aware of the predicament her sons were in. It is understood that she was advised by wire today of the sorry plight of the two boys.
 Through the letter from their mother, the officers have accidentally learned their place of residence in Oklahoma, something they have been trying since the capture to discover.

DEATH SENTENCE
 SOON FOR SPENCE

Upon the receipt of the remittul
 of the Supreme Court of Arizona
 which is daily expected in this city
 Frank Spence will receive sentence ot
 death in the District Court. The
 motion for a rehearing of his ease
 was denied by this tribunal a few
 days ago, at the session in Phoenix,
 and all that remains is to issue the
 order for his legal execution.
 It is believed that when Spence receives sentence of death in this city at some future date, the des- ignated place where he will expiate his crime for the murder of Edgar Sullivan, will be in this city. This is based on the actions of former Judge R. E. Sloan, who issued the order for his execution here after the finding of the verdict of guilty by the jury, with the death penalty attached, and who designated Pres colt as the place for the carrying out of the order. Since that time the creation of the new law that specifies the Territorial penitentiary as the place for executing the con- demned, has become operative, hence it is but reasonable that the original death sentence will accordingly pre- vail and be of successive eonsidera- ton.
 Spence has been informed of his doom by his attorney, and is cool and reserved. For a few days after the Bryant suicide he was downeast and moody and it was believed his rawlings would lead to physical and mental collapse.
 He says he will face the gallows n a manly manner, and his principal sorrow is the reflection that his ieath will carry to his family. Spence s said to have many influential rel Itives residing in the eastern states, md his family is one of the hes. ,nown and most highly respected liv- ng in Missouri.
 His attorney, R. P. Talbot, states hat immediately after the death sen ence is pronounced, he will circulate petition to be presented to Governor 'loan, asking for executive elemeney, nd the communication of the death entence to imprisonment for life.
 Spence has been removed 10 more ommodious quarters in the county all, and is now located on the sec nd floor, in larger and better room han the cells formerly occupied. The ay and night death watch is being etained.

SEEK PARDON FOR ELLIOTT

A petition is being circulated in the city by friends of John Elliott, convicted a few weeks ago of erim- inal assault on a girl under statutory age, residing at Sehgman, asking Governor Sloan to pardon the man. It is being signed by the jury that brought in the verdict of guilty, and it is said has nearly all of that body endorsing the move. Some of the jurymen in the case stated yesterday that they had misunderstood the min imum term of imprisonment the law specifies. Elliott was sentenced to the minimum term of five years in the penitentiary.

SERVICE GETS IRISH
 COMPLAINT Want Mail-Carrying Steamers to Stop At
 Queenstown Unique Idea Advanced For Wiping Out The
 Deficit
tFrom Tuesday's DailyI Special Correspondenee)

| koPcClA OolfoSPOnOencel
 WASHINGTON, D. C., May ss. -
 The Postmaster General is in receipt
 of dispatch from the United States
 Consul at Cork Coueenstown), Ire
 land, reporting that the people of
 Ireland are protesting against the
 abandonment of Queenstown by all
 fast steamers of the Cunard Line ear
 rying mail and passengers from the
 United States.
 In reply to the protest the Post
 master General states that the De-
 partment has no control over the
 movement of the steamers of the Gun
 ard Line on either Eestbound or east
 bound voyages, but is confined to &C.,
 eepting the service which that line
 offers in competition with the non contract steamers of the other lines carrying the mails between New York and European ports.
 A fraud order has been issued against David B. Gaines, colored, of Tampa, Flosida, who regarded himself as a phrenologist and sstrologer. By means of circulars sent through the mails he induced members of his race, who were in distress or trouble, to communicate with him and advise him of their condition. In response to their communications so elieited he sent to correspondents letters in which ne of- fered to send them, if they would re- init from s15 to $25, charms which he alleged would put an end to their troubles.
 The fraud order issued last Febru- ary against the Dr. Hall Electro vigOr Company, San Francisco, Chicago, Denver and Seattle, has been extended to embrace the name and address of c. W. Cook, 1914 Second Avenue, Seattle, Washington. Evidence shows that c. W. Cook, former manager of the Seattle office of the concern has been endeavoring to conduct the busi- ness under his own name and has been asking former patients of the concern to send their letters and re- mitances to him in order to evade the former fraud order.
 A specimen copy of a postage stamp with a face value of $500 was received today by Postmaster General Hitchcock from the International Postal Union headquarters at Berne; Switzerland.
 The stamp which bears the profile ,f the late King Edward VII was ssued for the Straits Settlement and las the highest face value of any postage stamp ever issued. It is beautifully printed in two colors, light range and lilac. The stamp will be urned over to Stanley I. Slack the urator of the Postal Museum to be ,laeed on exhibition.
 With a view of wiping out the ostal deficit an enterprising Virgin an advances an idea, which he says 5 his own, in a letter to Postmaster ieneral Hitchcock. His proposition for the government to make an oe- asional error in the printing of post ge stamps for the purpose of selling hem at a premium as euriosities. The says that there are lore than 6,OOO,OOO stamp collectors l the country all of whom would be filing to pay a good premium for leh stamps. As reeompense for the lea all the Virginian asks is that he e made special agent to handle the ampS fOr the eyOvarnment

Cordes, Rlchinbar, Rumble Bee and
 Goddard, all of the towns and post. offices being within the domain. A
 portion of this tract lies in Mari.
 eopa county.
 A fourth tract-and tbe one that lies nearest Preseott-comes up to
 Point of Rocks, takes in approxi- mately the entire Lonesome Valley and extends to the northwest as far as Simmons. Through this tract runs the Sarta Fe, Prescott & Phoenix railroad. A considerable portion. of this land is owned by the railroad company as 1t was given them in the pioneer days as a bonus for con- structing the railroad.
 With inviting land lying in all portions of the domain, it is eonsid- cred a certainty that many appliea- tions for entry, and settlement will be received at the land office from each of the four tracts.
 Ever since Delegate Cameron has been in Congress he has been actively urging that these lands be restored to entry.
 The Phoenix Democrat has the fol lowing account of the restoration of these lands:
 On August g, next, 606,6os acres of land, much of which is rated as fertile farm land as can be found in any part of Arizona, will be thrown open to settlement in Maricopa and Yavapai counties, and thirty days later will be open to entry.
 Information received today from Washington is that Secretary of h. terior Ballinger has designated this immense tract of land for disposi- tion under the enlarged homestead act.
 From Register Parker and Receiver Arnold of the Phoenix land office in- formation was obtained this morning which indicates that in restoring this large area several hundred thous- and acres of farm land under culti- vatiOn will be added to the total in Arizona in the next few years.
 Beginning near the upper end of the Big Chino valley in Yavapai county, the restored lands lie along ne Verde river and down into Mar cOpa county as far south as Frog Tanks.
 In 1901 the land was withdrawn | y the government to be included in he Prescott forest reserve, as most | If 1t lies between the two halves of | hat reserve, which are joined to- 5ther in the Prescott section.
 Originally the withdrawal is said O have been made at the request of attlemen, who sought by this means o keep the sneep owners off several undred thousand acres of fine graz ng land. For years the sheep inter- sts have been trying to get these ands restored to entry.
 Register Parker stated this morn lg that in the restored area are everal hundred thousand acres of md that are as good for agricul- lral purposes as any in Arizona. He tated that hardly a day passes at he land office that does not bring n application for homestead entry rom inside this district that mas Ist been restored. It has been eeessary to inform the applicant J nat his filing could not be made.
 Tributary to the Big Chino and erde valleys in the restored district re a number of tributary valleys, in hich are thousands of small tracts . nat will make fine farms. Much of a le land is in the mountains and f ill be valuable for farms in the nall valleys. As yet nothing official has been b card in the Phoenix land office re- f arding the withdrawal, but both Re siver Arnold and Register Parker
