MUCH INTEREST IN
 MINE OPERATIONS
rFrom Wednesdays Dailyl


 Considerable interest is following the mining operations going on at the present time on Quartz Noun tain, three miles to the south of the city, for the production of the silica output on that famed peak. Twenty tons are passing through the city daily, and the appearance of the old method of transportation by wagon teams revives the haleyOn days when the mule skinner reigned supreme.
 For the first time in this history of this proposition, it is being work ed for the specific commodity it is already becoming famOusly known for treasuring, and through its purity and its adaptability for shelter use, it has suddenly reached that rating that will undoubtedly result in the creation of an important industry for this particular locality. The Humboldt smelter is the consumer for a big shipment and some idea of the tonnage required for the re verberatory furnace at the above plant shows that 400 tons will be. necessary for that one purpose. In grade there is no better commodity 10 be seen in the entire West, rang ing from 9s per cent to being com mereially pure. It is being hauled to the city by Bawdre & Davis, who require eight horses, and one four horse team. The deposit is owned by A. A. Johns, J. L. Munds and P A. Johns. The tonnage available is unlimited, sufficient in fact for all the smelters in the Southwest, and of a far better grade than is produced anywhere else West of the Rockies

WITH BIG KNIFE MAN
 PLAYED "BAD" MAN
From Sundays Dailyl


 With a big knife in his hand, James Milton yesterday made a clean sweep of the smoker Qn the Santa Fe pas senger train, as it was entering Selg- man, and when he concluded his bad man performance he had the place all to himself. Not a passenger was left. all dueking to quarters that did not display the gleam of steel or the frenzy of the inebriated demon. Mil ton was undergoing a fierce jag, at the time, and with the fighting brand he became a dangerous man.
 When the train reached that place he was taken into custody by Division Officer Ahlers, who arrived in the city last night with his prisoner. He will remain for thirty or more days, and his ticket that was to carry him to Los Angeles will probably be vali- dated if he cares to produce the full amount of the fare, which is very improbable from his financial re- sources at the present time. He should be sent to join the Woodson boys of the Marieopa train holdup.

 TALENTED SoLoIST

MT. and Mrs. A. J. Head will leave this afternoon for Boston, Mass, where they will participate as interested spectators in the gradua- tion of their daughter, Miss Veva Head, from the New England Con- servatory of Music, which event win take place oa the 21st of the month.
 Miss Head las been a student of this institution for three years, and in that time has won her way in the vocal musical world to the highest rating, and is now regarded as one of the gifted young women in the art she has mastered. The gradua- ton of this young lady is especially pleasing to all residents of this city, for it was here she was born, and where she won the admiration of all for her musical accomplishments, when a mere girl.
 After the ceremonies are over, MT. and Mrs. Head, with their daughter, will visit all the principal Eastern cities, and they expect to return home in about one month.
 After a brief visit with friends here, Miss Head will leave for Flu rope, where she expects to complete her vocal training at the hands of masters, after which, in all probabil- ity, she will enter grand opera, as her professional career.
 During their absence the Head Hotel will be under the supervision of Mrs. N. J. Burns, while the busl- ness of MT. Head will be conducted by O. F. Orthel, manager of the Head Lumber company.

MANY LoCAToRS ARE
 WAITING TO ENTER
(From Sundays Daily.)

Since announcement was made that the throwing open of several thous- and acres of fertile land was to be made by the government along the Agua Fria and Verde rivers, Judge Moore, the U. S. Commissioner, re- siding in this city, states that on an average five intending loeators every day have been to his office to make investigations for either a homestead tract or a desert land entry.
 From this disposition of the public land seeker, it was his opinion that before the day had arrived for the filing of applications, over one hun dred people would register for the tracts that were to be thrown on the market, which would indicate that there would be quite a boom in land transactions.
 The land to be open to entry in August, in many places, is very de- sirable for homestead purposes, and the same may be said of the desert features, and where living water is available for the greater portion of the year. Many intending loeators are in the field at the present time investigating conditions, and along the Verde river the number of es-

 R.

 This is his first trip to Arizona, and during the few weeks he has been earnestly investigating indus trial conditions in evidence, he made the interesting statement that the resources of the county were a de- eided surprise, and in which ne was better informed by a personal ex- animation than all the literature that could be provided.
 He is well equipped in mining knowledge, and was somewhat em- phatic in stating that as soon as the principle of deep operations were fol- lowed out, along lines of practical forethought, he anticipated the great est field in the country to be in evi- dence in this section. In other lines he was also favorably impressed, forming a very favorable impression by his brief running over the eOun- try. He left in the afternoon for tine Salt River. valley, and in few days will return to his home in Chicago.

RECORD RUN IN
 AUTO FROM JEROME
(From Sundays Daiiv.>

Automobile records are being made with a regularity that is interesting in this mountainous region of steep hills and deep ravines, and yester- day Dr. L. A. Hawkins, in his Over land machine, entered the city under full head of steam, with another speed notch in the game of long and hard driving. He left Jerome at 5:30 a. m., yesterday morning, and before five hours had been ticked away he was in the garage of Rhodes & Clark, with ffty-three and one-half miles registered.
 With Dr. Hawkins were Mrs. M. A. Carrier and the latter's daughter, Miss Ivy Carrier. The famous Cherry Creek hill was passed over with ease, a feat in auto travel, that old driv- CTS falter at, and the grades that followed in diving down into the many gulehes, were clipped over un- der good speed also.
 Considering the general road con ditions prevailing between this city and Jerome. this record is a splen- did one for small machine, and Dr. Hawkins was the recipient of much praise for his skillful handling of the throttle. He returns to Jer- ome this morning, and will nave as guest Mrs. J. L. Summers, who goes to visit friends at her former home for a few weeks. Mrs. Carrier and daughter will remain in the city.

GOVERNOR SLOAN IS STILL ON
 THE JOB Rumor of Resignation Proves to Be

 Clark

A private letter to the Journal Miner yesterday stated that it was rumOred in Washington that Governor Sloan had resigned eOnditionally and that E. s. Clark of Prescott had been recommended as his successor.
 With the object of aseertaining whether there was any foundation for the report, the JOurnal-Miner wired to Delegate Ralph Cameron in regard to the Matter and this answer was received last evening:
 "Have absolutely DO information of SlOan's resignation, and do not think there is any basis for reports to that effect"
 The news of the Washington re- port that was current in Prescott reached Phoenix, and the Republican wired Governor Sloan, who: is at the national capital, for statement. The governor replied positively that he mad not resigned.
 One report reached here yesterday via Phoenix that Governor Sloan was slated for one of the positions on the Court of Commerce that is created by the new railroad bill that has passed both houses, and IS now before a, conference committee.
 After sitting the matter down to authentic sources, it would appear as though there is no prospective va eaney in the gubernatorial chair.
