The board of supervisors had one of
the largest consignments of hides in
the history of the county to examine
and allow bills for at this session.

raccoons, badgers. and wolves. About
eight hundred dollars were disbursed
on this account alone.

ed to death at the camp south of towr,

into the fame, her dress catching fire
and before it could be extinguishtd
she was so badly burned that she died
in a short time. Her suffering before
death mercifully relieved her was in
tense.
Assessor Frank L. Hunt came over
from the Vivian section this week and
is looking after affairs of his office
preparatory to listing the property of
Mohave county for the year 1910. It
is to be hoped that Mohave county
will reach a much higher listment of
property this year than last, as there
is enough property subject to taxation
TO place it in the second class.
The board of supervisors has been in
session the greater part of this week
settling up the affairs of the county
during the year 1909. A great deal of
expense was incurred by the county on
account of tie new hospital and poor
farm and road expenses. This has
been by direct tax, all the expense
having been practically paid from the
general fund of the county. The
financial condition of the county is
good and the people will soon know by
the financial report just how their
money has been expended.
