DEATH LIST IS
NOT INCREASED
Present Indications Are That
No More Will Die From
Bottineau Cyclone

Antler, N. D., Aug. 28-Pre-
sent indications are that the
death list from the effects of the
Bottineau county series of cyc-
lones will not be further increas-
ed, the several persons who were
so seriously injured that it was
thought that they would die,
having regained strength and
now are on the road to recovery.
Mrs. VIM. Bradley Of Superior
Wis, one of those whom it was
expected could not live, is in
much better condition. Her ex-
perience was a frightful one,
she being carried about 100 yards
from the place where she was
when the storm struck. A heavy
kitchen range was rolled down
the creek also, and struck her in
it's travels, lodging on her chest
and injuring her frightfully. Her
son, Clarence, had several ribs
broken, but he will also recover.
Mrs. Ora Spry, another of
those who was expected to die is
also much better. She has a
triple fracture Of the skull, while
her son, Lester, has a double
skull fracture. The lad also has
a broken hip and a deep cash in
the throat, but will recover.

BURKE COUN.
TY SCHOOLS
County Supt. c. H. Hecht
Makes Interesting Report
Covering Past Year


kindly given The Tribune a re-
port of the schools in Burke
county which we herewith pub
lish in full:
am indeed very much pleas
ed to find the schools in Burke.
county to be in every way in the
yerv best of condition. They
are growing in number fast and
now rank a great deal better
than the average in the state.
Many improvements have been
made during the past year to the
equipments of schools, among
which two Of the most import
ant are the adding of a new set
of the, Teachers and Pupils
Encyclopedias" and other good
reference books to the libraries
of almost every school in the
county, and also the installing
of heating and ventilating plants,
the latter Of which will give the
children plenty of pure air and
an even temperatured room to
study in. Some schools have
added new slate blackboards,
new window curtains, and other:
necessary things to make things
up-to-date and comfortable for
the pupils.:. : IT,.
/ wish to commend the school
boards who, have provided closed
drinking jars with. faucets and
individual drinking cups. This
is indeed something of which
any school may be proud. I also
noticed that during the past
summer many school buildings,
had their. windows and doors
screened, which was indeed a
relief to the scholars who are
not now being hindered from
studying by mosquitoes and
flies.
/ believe that a school room
properly ventilated and left in a
sanitary condition by the use of
individual drinking cups and
sweeping compound for the
floors, is fully one half of what
the pupil requires in school. I
hope that the school boards who
have not equipped their schools
with the necessaries I mention
will do so within the coming
year.
During the past few months a
number of school boards have
consulted me about libraries and
text books. By doing so the diff
ferent schools in the county are
able to get more uniform and up
to-date books, which I believe to
be a big point for the advancing
of education in a more simple
and practical way. lam always
glad to meet any school board
discuss school needs with them.
I also note that the school
boards this fall are employing
teachers with some experience
4 and second or first grade certific-
ates, and are demanding these
qualifications more than they
have been doing in the past,
being willing to pay higher
salary to more competent in
strutors:
I was much impressed last
spring by the interest taken by
\ many teachers in the county in
the planting Of trees on. the.
school grounds, and arranging
flower beds and gardens thereon.
Il Wouldsbe glad to see this kind
of work continue, and would en-
courage its practice during the
coming spring.
The prospects for bull ding new
schools inSthe county during the.
current year are very good. Flax

Political Announcements
Henry Louin for State Senator.

This week we are called upon to an- nounce the candidacy of Henry Lovin for the Senate of the new State of Ari- zona, and that he will go before the democratic electors of the county for that high office.
 MT. Lovin has been prevailed upon by his friends to make the race, and now that he has consented to shy his castor in the political ring he will make the fight to win. Mir. Lovin is one of the largest property owners of the county and has held many import ant offices under the electorate oi the people. For four years he was sheriff of the county, and at the last election was sent to PheniX to help prepare the constitution of the new state, and in that body was one of the progress ives, having voted for the adoption of all of the progressive features of the constitution, which the people of the territory adopted by so large a maJcr- ity. It is not probable that he will have opposition for the nomination within the party.

Mines of the County

R. P. Wheelock, the well known young mining man, is in charge of the development now being carried on by the Enterprise NJ. 1. x R. company. MT. Wheelock has been with several of the large mining companies in Searchlight and Cananea since leaving Kingman several years ago.
 James Dundon, who is in Kingman from his home in Cerbat, reports that he has driven an adit drift on the old Black x Tan vein, south of Stockton Hill, and has opened a fine body of high grade ore. The mine has been a producer of very rich silver ore in past years, but the new ore shoot is in a different part of the property and in the neighborhood of the rich ore shoot of the old '63 mine.
 O. F. Brinton and wife, of Butte, Mont, arrived in Kingman the first of the week. MT. Brinton has been en- gagged as consulting engineer by the Arizona Alpha mining company and is looking after the details of the prop erty's development. At the present time force of men are at work driv- ing a deep drift on the vein. the breast now being in a fine looking grade of ore. As soon as this drift reaches the ore body below the old works raise will be made to connect with the shaft to the old adit level.
 George Aitken, owner of rich mining property in the Music mountain section arrived in Kingman a few days ago from Los Angeles. He will go to the mines and establish a camp prepara- tory to taking out and shipping ore from the property. Specimens from the mines show wonderful values in gold, the ore being speckled with gold. 4 shaft was recently sunk to depth of more than 100 feet on one of the veins and good ore found all the way down. With the opening up of a supply of water the gold and silver mines of Music mountain would become large bullion producers.

Ora Plata Directors.

Last Saturday the board of directors of the Gro Plata company held its reg ular monthly meeting and among other business elected the following directors to take the places of several directors resigned: O. B. Stanton, w. w. Elliott, O. B. Stanton, jr., w. c. Engle, Dr. L. c. Chamberlain and George w. Marks. Dr.. Chamberlain is from San Diego; George w. Marks, is U. s. assayer at St. Louis; W. c. Engle, is a resident of Philadelphia, and W. W. Elliott is a member of the well known engineering firm of Elliott and Dresher, of Prescott. The new board of directors reelected J. w. Gerritt president and Charles Metcalfe secretary. O. B. Stanton will be the general manager of the company. So far in his management of the Orc Plata MT. Stanton has been very successful and It is predicted that he will make the property one of the best producers in the district. The mine has pro- duced many hundreds of thousands of dollars in gold and silver above the 2SO level, only the higher grades having been extracted, from the main vein of the property. The other vein still has its rich ores, and recent develop ment in that part of the mine has shown up a very good body of shippable ore.
 A mill will soon be in operation on the mine for the purpose of dressing up the ores for shipment to the shelter Of the milling ore the mine has large bodies, while there are many thousands of tons on the dump. When the prop erty is unwatered to the 2SO level it is expected that a good body of rich ore will be reached in one of the par allel veins.
