Clifton Hieh School Notes.

The athletic spirit, in the High School, has budded at last, thanks to the people who patronized their show the other night. The seed has been germinialng among the boys for a long time. But owing to lack of funds, they have been scratching their heads to devise some plans in order to fill the strong box. As they have few dollars at present, some one suggested that they organize, so Friday afternoon, after 3:l5, they met in the assembly room; and pro ceeded to elect the officers amidst great deal of confusion with yelling and "hot air" filling the atmosphere. The result was, when the debris was cleaned away that MT. Halvorson was elected manager and treasurer; MT. Jamisou, coach and secretary; Mir. Smith, captain of the team.
 The boys have been practicing the last few weeks and played against the Clifton team and did very good work during the game. After this week, they are going to renew the practice with double energy, for they have a prospect of a game with Thatcher, and are, also, getting in communication with the Fl Paso High School; and may be will land game with them in Clifton, sometime in April.
 The vaudeville, given by the High School was a success from financial standpoint. They have taken in ap- proximately one hundred dollars from which they will net a pretty good profit.
 The boys worked hard to make it a success and hope the people who attended will think that they did so. They take this means to thank the people for their help, and their hearty support.
 The High School was honored Fri day by the presence of MT. Higgins, Secretary of the Chautauqua circuit lectures in Arizona. He entertained the students with two recitatious. for which he was much applauded. The students think that the coming of the Chautauqua circuit lectures in Clifton is for the good of the whole town in an educational line.

DIRECTORS FROM SCOTLAND
 VISITORS IN CLIFTON
Will Be Here Several Days Going Over Affairs of Arizona Copper Company
 New Plant Contemplated

A committee appointed by the per Company, Ltd, from Edinburgh, Scotland, are at present in Clifton and will remain for several days. Two mem bers of the committee, MT. Young J. Pentland and MT Wm. Exley Mil Ter, secretary, arrived last week and on Friday of this week Hon. Lord SalVesOn and MT. Allan Carter ar rived. During their stay in Clifton the directors are housed in the resi- dence set apart for the board of direc- tors on Railroad avenue
 Mir. Pentland and MT. Miller were seen by representative of the ERA at the general office of the company on Thursday and asked for a statement for publication regarding any contem- plated improvements of the local plant, or plans for increased produc- tion. MT. Pentland informed the ERA that until the arrival of the other members of the committee (who came in today that it would be impossible to make any statement for publica- tion.
 The committee, consisting of Messrs. Pentland, Miller, Salveson and Carter are here for the purpose of making careful investigation of local affairs and to make report, with their rec concentrations, to the board of direc- tors in Edinburgh. MT. Pentland in- timated that, at the conclusion of the labors of the committee, there would be something of interest to the public tor publication.
 It is no secret that for several months past the directors of the Ari- zona Copper Company have been con- sidering the advisability of the erec- tion of new reduction plant. It is understood that a bond issue for these improvements in contemplation has already been authorized. At the same time it is a well known fact that the present plant of the Arizona Copper Company is making a record for eco- nomical production seldom equalled by ehJ OihOA PtohO III IhO ! hOO- withstanding the appellation applied by some mining writers as ian ami mated scrap heap"
 During the incumbency of John Gill as president of the Arizona Cop per Company an attempt was made in New York City to bring about a consolidation of the reduct ion plants of the A c. Co.,, the Detroit company and the shannon company, a new central plant to be erected at some convenient and accessibl point. The attempt at that time was a failure. That some permanent decision will be reached regarding the red uction plant of the A. c. Go. while the directors are in Arizona at this time is the gen. eral opinion.

CUPID LEADS COUPLE
 ON ALL NIGHT RIDE
Couple Rides Sixty.FiVe Miles on Horse back to Secure Marriage
 License

By daring ride across the Puebls mountains from Alma, N. M., dis tance of 65 miles, and Outwitting { mother and father opposed to tn, match, Miss Anna Harris and Jame. Durfee arrived in Clifton last Sunday morning and an hour later were united in marriage by Probate Judge Shir ley.
 Miss Harris is the daughter of MT and Mrs. Harris, who live at Alma, N. M., where MT. Harris is engaged in the cattle and butcher business. The groom is manager of the Graham mining camp in the Mogollon noun tains in Mexico.
 From the story, it was case ofIove at first sight several months ago, but as soon as the love story .relched the parental ears there was objection, not on the ground that the groom was not worthy in every particular, but on account of the age of the intended bride, who had not yet reached her 18th birthday. The young lady was kept under constant surveillance, but a friend of the groom contrived to sm Iggle the sweetheart a note desig- hating the spot near the home of the bride for meeting place. Last Sat urday night the groom arrived at the appointed place with two horses. The young lady slipped quietly out of the house and joiLad her lover and ride across country. 6S miles in the night, was commenced. The couple came across the Puebla mountains, down the Blue and the Frisco, arriving in Clifton Sunday morning, where MT. Durfee secured the assistance of w. O. Wheatley, clerk of the board, and the young couple was soon standing be- fore Judge Shirley, while Cupid held the horses on the outside of the court house.
 Alter visiting Monday with MT. and Mrs. Wheatley the newly married couple started for their new home at the Graham mining camp over the route travelled the Saturday night previous.

 ''The figures from the Chicago house have been taken of of invoices purchased by individuals, adding the freight bill they had to pay on the different articles when figured ing to weight and freight rate.
 ''The following two bills of grocer ies were purchased by two different parties. The Clifton prices herein given, can be verified by the salr lips purchased by any resident oi Clifton during that period. conse quent'y this goes to show conclusively thar these people have been buying and are buying for less money than they can from the Chicago house.

Antelope Closed Season Extended.

The Era is in receipt of the follow ing letter from Jno. D. Guthrie, For est Supervisor, at Springerville, Ari- zona bringing information of the ex- tension of the closed season on Antelope until March I, 1913. MT. Guthrie writes:
 Editor, Clifton Copper Era, Clifton,
 Arizona.
 Dear Sir: In the interest of game protection in Arizona wish 10 bring to your attention the matter of the extension for two years of the closed season on Antelope. You doubtless know that the closed season would have ended on March 1, 1911, but for an Act of Congress approved Febru- ary Is, 1911. There would have been an open season on Antelope beginning March l, 1911, since there was no ueeting of the Territorial Legislature this winter to extend the closed season. Delegate Ralph H. Cameron took up the matter and secured the passage of bill extending the closed season for two years, or until March l, 1913. You will receive the hearty thanks of all persons interested in the preservation of this interesting animal by giving publicity to the fact of the extension of the closed season.
 Very truly yours.

Survey Of Mining Claims.

Phoenix, Arizona, March 15, 19l1.- Existing laws require the claimant of mineral location to have a correct official survey of his claim made under the authority of the Sur yeyor General of the State or Terri tory iiT i vii. ch bis c1aa4EHi Is situated prior to making applica to the officers of the Local Land Office for patent thereto, in view of the fact that the official survey is the basis of such application for patent. One copy of the approved plat of survey torney by the Surveyor-General, which plat, together with d copy of notice of his intention to apply for patent is required to be posted in a conspicuous place on his claim. After posting said plat and notice upon the premises, the claimant will | fife with the Register and Receiver of the Local Land Office for the Dis trict in which his claim is situated applica ton for patent, and, if no reason appears for the rejection of the application, the Register will, at the expense of the claimant, publish notice of such application for patent for d period of sixty days in the newspaper published nearest the claim.
 From the foregoing, it is obvious that, in order to secure a copy of the plat of survey so as to enable the claimant to post the same for the period of sixty days prior to the end of the calendar year, the survey should receive my approval not later than October 10th. The field notes of mineral survey should be filed in this office at the earliest possible date, in order to insure the receipt by the claimant of the approved plat of his survey not later than October 20, 1911. This will avoid the neces- >ity of the claimants doing annual assessment work on each location for the succeeding calendar year, in the event of the issuance of final certi- fcate by the Register of the Local Land Office prior to the end of the current calendar year.
 Each year, during the months of August, September, and October, numerous applications are filed with me for the survey ot mineral claims. Vhich results in large number of field notes being filed in this office during those months. especially the latter ones. Naturally, the work in the Mineral Department of the office becomes congested and, Consequen ntly, some surveys can not be approved by me soon enough to permit the claim ant to post his plat for the required sixty day period prior to the end of he calendar year. It is the policy of the SurYeyer General to accom- modate mineral claimants in the ma tier of expediting office work in connection with he >urvey of their mining claims as far as it is within his power to do so, but the fact must not be lost sight of that the number of employees in the Mineral Depart ment of this office is of necess ty limited
 It therefore behooves all mineral claimants who anticipate making ap- plcation for patent to their holdings, in the expectation of securing final certificates during the present year, to cause their claims to be surveyed officially at once and thus avoid the danger of their surveys not being ap- proved in good season.
