Mohave County miner., 1911-09-16
in Colorado
 River PIacers.

J.P. Gideon, who recently returned from the north part of the county, met Miss Sharlot NJ. Hall, Arizona's Ter ritorial Historian, and to him Miss Hall related an interesting story of her trip from Flagstaff through the wild and picturesque country to Lees Ferry and on to Bluff City, in Utah. At the mouth of the San Juan river, on the Colorado, she stopped with the people building big dredger for the purpose of recovering the gold from the river bars and banks. She was told by one of the placer miners that they had been troubled by the pres ence in the sluices by bright white metal that had interfered with the re- covery of the gold, and that but re- gently a metallurgist had come there and assured them that. the white metal was quicksilver. The miners then took samples from a wide area of coun- try and found that the distribution of the metal covered practically all the banks and bars for miles up and down the river. It was the opinion of the miners that there was enough of the metal in the sands to pay for extrac- tion under favorable conditions.
 Owing to the long wagon haul from Bluff City it appeared improbable that the placers along the river could be worked profitably, although the dred- gers might be able to cope with the conditions there existing.
 Some years ago at Temple Bar quicksilver was found in the placers, the miners finding nuggets of gold partly coated with the quick. In the sluice boxes considerable of the metal was found. Just where this quicksil- yer came from could never be satis- factorily explained.

Telluride Ore in the WaIIapais

This week assays taken from the Royal Flush mine, recently discovered by A. L. McKesson, on the ground of the Ohio mining claim. near Wallapai Springs, disclosed the fact that the ore carries high values in telluride, the gold running 5OOs and silver 800 ounces to the ton. Development is being carried on by few miners in cross cutting the vein and doing some nec- essary top work. As soon as machin- cry is received a shaft will be started at favorable point and continued to a point below the water level. The vein is quite large and promises big things with depth.
 This property was recently taken over under option by Emerson Gee for the interest of his associates from O. D. NJ. Gaddis, w E. Frost, Harry Mehaffy, Walter Meyers, Major w. A. Mensch and A. L. McKesson, all conflicting interests being tied up in the deal, which is for large amount of money. The mines are situated about sixteen miles east of Kingman and in one of the best mineralized sec tions of the Wallapai mountain.

comparatively Young.

Trenton, N. J.-Because of the pro-
visions Of the will Of the late Henry
Sked it is likely that ST., 900, the pre-
ceeds of the recent sale Of the Sked
farms at Hokewell and Pennington.
will be tied up in the court of chan
Gerry for at least sixty years. A life
interest in the farms was left to Mrs.
Sked and the children, and upon
their deaths were to go to the grand
children.
The sale of the land was made I'M
der statute which permits the court
of chancery, where real estate is left
by will and where it is considered
wise to so to do, to convert the prop
erty into cash and invest the cash
for the benefit of the legatees.
Under this law the proceeds of the
sale have been invested and the inter
est will be paid over to the widow
and children AS the Sked children
are comparatively young it is likely
that it will be sixty years or more
before the money passes over to the
grandchildren and out of the control
of the court.

Professor Sargent Says She Is of Low
err Order Than Man-Has Not
Developed as Rapidly.

BOstOn.-That woman is a lower or
der of being than man and that she
has not developed so rapidly from the
barbaric state as man is the latest as
sertion by Prof Dudley A. Sargent,
head of the department of physical
culture at Harvard, and we'll known
as writer upon subjects pertaining
to womans development.
Are women constitutionally tougher
than men? This is the question upon
which Doctor Sargent was asked to
pass judgment. 1t was also question
which was brought up by Prof. John
M. Tyler of Amherst at the meeting
of the American Physical Education
association.
ut is a question which is difficult
to answer" declared Doctor Sargent,
perhaps because the word tough is
one capable of so many interpreted
tons. Taken in the sense of meaning
more enduring, l should be inclined to
believe that women were in that re-
gard superior to men
ut stands to reason that since they
are constructed on plan better
suited to cope with physical forces of
a certain kind they should be able to
withstand conditions which man, who
is built with an entirely dissimilar OBJ
ject in view, is unable to contend
with.
Briefly we may say that woman is
nearer the savage state. Her devel-
opment is more primitive than mans,
JUS as the Indian is more primitive
than q white man.
Woman being biologically more of
a barbarian than a man. she has
greater proportion of physical endur-

New Hospital at Waupun.

Without a dissenting vote the joint
finance committee of the senate and
the assembly voted to recommend the
construction of the proposed new hos
pital for the criminally insane on the
state penitentiary grounds at Waupun.
Rev. Daniel Woodward, member of
the state board of control, told the
committee that many inmates OF the
state prison were in the habit OF
feigning insanity in order to be re-
moved from the prison to the North
ern hospital at Oshkosh.
This state of affairs would be done
away with speedily, he said, If the
prisoners understood that they would
merely be removed from one building
to another on the prison grounds
when they showed the slightest symp-
toms of being derenged. Doctor Sher-
man. head of the Northern hospital,
and Doctor Gorst of the Mendoza
asylum were opposed to the idea of
placing the criminal insane patients
with those less violent at the North
ern and Mendoza asylums, while
Warden Town of the state peniten-
tiary was strongly in favor of build
ing the hospital at Waupun.

MENTAL ACCURACY
Greatly improved by Leaving Off Coffee

The manager Of an extensive cream
cry in Wis states that while a regu-
lar coffee drinker, he found it injuri-
GUS to his health and a hindrance to
the performance Of his business du-
ties.
"It impaired my digestion, gave me
a distressing sense Of fullness in the
region of the stomach, causing a most
painful and disquieting palpitation Of
the heart, and what is worse, it mud
died my mental faculties so as to seri-
ously injure my business efficiency.

Of coffee, short off, and began to drink
Postum. The cook didn't make it
right at first. She didn't boil 1t long
enough, and did not find it palatable
and quit using it and went back to COT

In no session of the legislature
since the public utility law was en-
acted have SO many attempts been
made to nullify it's provisions and to
defeat the purposes of the system es-
tablished in Wisconsin with SO much
care and consideration, as at this
session. The policy of affording pro-
lection to public service corporations
coming under the operation of the
public utility law was thought to be
clearly established, but numerous in
stances can be cited to show the eff
forts made to destroy this system.
1t took the combined efforts of Sen
ators Sanborn and Owen to preserve
the law from destruction in the senate
session, and this by narrow margin
of one vote. A question arose over
where the existing lighting company
operates under the utility law. In
spite of this an effort has been made
to install a municipal plant, without
first going through the process of con-
demning the existing property under
the law. The bill introduced to fit
this local situation, which in effect
would absolutely nullify the existing
statute, was strongly advocated by
Senators True, Bosshard, Husting and
Gaylord
While both the senate and assembly
now have gone on record for the
teachers pension measure, known as
the Hoyt bill, there is no certainty
that it will be signed by Governor
McGovern. There are certain features
of the measure that are being harsh
ly criticized throughout the state, the
farmers in particular objecting to the
bill. If these complaints move the
governor to action it is quite likely
that, instead of vetoing the bill, he
will extend his policy of having bills
withdrawn from the executive depart
ment for amendment.
The Hoyt bill came up on Mr.. On
stad's motion for reconsideration of
the vote by which it was advanced a
few days ago. After the smoke had
cleared, the bill was refused consid-
Grafton by the decisive vote Of 81 to
&C. Onstad's motion was made in the
desire that the bill might be relieved
of that section which forces teachers
to give one per cent. Of their pay
toward the retirement fund.
