Frisco Mines and
 Power Company.

This week the Frisco Mines and Power Company made another pay ment of IO. .OOOS on the purchase price of that property, a total payment 70 date of 25,OOOs. The payment goes to the estate of w. E. Sauls and O. D. M. Gaddis, the former owners of the Gold Grown mines. The mines originally were sold for 72,OOOs, and 5O,OOOS yet remains unpaid. It is expected that the whole of the unpaid portion ot the purchase price will be made during the year.
 The company has proven to it's en- tire satisfaction that it has one of the great mines of the territory and will suon have the property in shape to make a large output of bullion month"; lv. The ore in sight is said to have a value of more than l2,OO0,000S. The milling plant is to be reinforced by ten stamps, which will bring the crushing capacity up to 75 tons daily. With the addition of the Burns ranch water, the plant will be well supplied, making it possible to handle tonnage of more than 200 tons daily, and as soon as possible the mill will be brought to that capacity. Owing to the great size of the vein (from 32 to 64 feet) mining can be carried on at small expense.
 James A. Roberts, of New York, Is the managing director of the company, E H. Barton, consulting engineer and Howard W. Squires, superintendent of the property.

Sale of the CycIopic Mines.

Last Tuesday s. c. Bagg passed through Kingman from the Cyclop c mines, in the Gold Basin district, on his way to Los Angeles, where he will make his home. He had been three years at the Cyclopic mines working hard to make the property a dividend payer, and never got as far as King man during that time. The new com pany made large cash payment on the property and believe they have a winner.
 During the time Mir. Bagg has been at the mine he cleaned up more than 15,000S from the milling plant, which practically paid all his expenses.
 It is understood that the new con- pany will develop the mine to large extenC and then put in an adequate milling plant to handle the ore. The mine at present is capable of furnish ing a large tonnage of ore of an ex. ceptionally high grade.

Bell Rural Mining Company.

This week we are publishing articles of incorporation of the Bell Rural Mining Company, corporation organ ized by Springfield, Illinois, people to take over the Sabbath Bell and Rural mines, at Mineral Park, from k. F. Thom pson and John Boyle, jr. The company is capitalized at one million one dollar shares. The mines to be taken over and worked by the co"por- ation are among the best h the Min eral Park basin and are sure to give good results. The Rural produced a large tonnage of the richest ore ever taken from a mine in this county and only needs small amount of develop ment work to bring it into the produc- ing class again. The Sabbath Bell shows a splendid vein of good grade ore and is situated in the best mineral ized section of the district. The new company is financially able to put the mines in producing shape. Work will soon be under way at the mines under the management of an able mining en- gineer.

Last Saturday M. G. Wagner, of the Kingman Auto Company, received two new cars from the E. NJ. F.. factory. One of the cars was a Gar ford 40 and the other was an E. M. F.. 30. The two machines are of the latest pattern, the Garford being a fore door machine. Last Tuesday Mir. Wagner in company of Walter Brown went up to Pine Springs and over to the Brown -Haskin ranch, whence they went to Seligman. The trip of SS miles to Pine springs was made in about five hours and the trip to Selig- man was made in little over an hour, a distance of 3S miles. While absent Mir. Wagner completed the sale of four cars for future delivery. He ex- poets a carload of the cars within the next month, two of which will be delivered in Kingman to George w. Miller and O. D. NJ. Gaddis. At Nel- son the party met the roadoversee ot Yavapai county, who informed them that the road from Prescott to Ash Fork had been completed and was one of the finest in the territory. They are to at once build the road from Ash Fork to Nelson, which fact behooves the board of supervisors of this county to get busy and build the roads tC meet the Yavapai survey. Mir. Wag ner believes that the expenditure o 30OS or 4O0S will make the road iron Klngman to Nelson passable for al classes of machines and that a little more work would make a boulevard of the line.

The Ruth Mill a Success.

The past ten days the Ruth mill has been trying out it's machinery and testing the merit of its new amalga- nation process. Thursday last a clean up of the amalgamator amounted to 2O9 pounds of hard. dry amalgam. This amalgam will amount to about 4S silver to every POS of gold, giving the bullion a splendid value. The saving by the device is said to have been above 95 per cent of the gold and sil- yer values in the ore, the best saving made at any of the mills in the dis trict.
 The four two stamp batteries in the mill have been giving entire satisfac tion and getting through a large ton. mage of ore. After passing through the batteries the pulp is put through the tube mills, where it is reduced tC the proper tineness for the amalgama tor.
 At the mine the drifts have beer connected and stopes opened. Drift ing is now under way east and wes from the two shafts and good ore i! being encountered in both directions The mine has shown wonderfully wei and appears to he a sure winner.

Notes of the Day.

A host of Sunday school workers
from here and there over the county
were in the city for the occasion and
while not participating in the parade
as an organized body, they were at
the picnic at University Park.
A better or more pleasing place
for holding the picnic than the timber
east of the Holiness University could
not have been found or chosen. Every
one was pleased. ...--
The Friends and the other Sunday
school workers of Wright had planned
to be in the parade. The effort was
to have been made union organiza.
ton. Had the plans been carried out
the good people of Wright would have
taken home banner.
The absence of the strong organi.
cations at New Sharon was noted. A
special car on the Iowa Central was
to have been provided, but the plan
and the schools at that place were not
organized for the parade. Several of
the New Sharon people were at the
picnic, however, and next season the
Sunday schools of that part of the
county will be well represented.
Rose Hill organizations were also
conspicuous by their absence, not be-
ing able to get to the city in time
for the parade.
White City intended sending a dele
cation until the last minute, when
! for one or another cause the num-
bers were cut down until the repre-
sentation would have been too small.
The difficulty before many of the
outof-town schools was in reaching
the city for the time of the parade,
| it being almost impossible to get
from the corners of the county unless
| by automobile.
| Compliments are extended the men
who organized and managed the pa
rade. J. B. McCurdy and his aides
began placing the schools and dele
cations at 1890 and had them moving
before eleven o'clock. The delega
| lions were dismissed after the brifest
possible march and no one was held
waiting long for the line to move for
| ward on High avenue. The parade
plan was well worked out.

Supposed Murderers ESCAPE,

Mondamin, Aug. Especial: After
an all day chase filled with thrilling
incidents, during which the supposed
murderers of Marshal George Butcher
were several times within sight of
members of the posse, the two men
were marooned on sandbar in the
Missouri river near Mondamin.
A fusillade of shots were exchanged
and just as it appeared that the muir.

severe storm came up and in the semi,

having broke from the lines of the
guards. A search was made of the
sandbar after the storm, but the men
had made good use of their opportun-
ity.
