Blair and the
Stubborn Storys
By ALICE LONG

Everybody thought that Jack Blair
had the inside track with the Storys,
from gruff old William Story to inquis-
tive Billy Story, to say nothing of
Mrs. Story and Bell herself, and it
was the inside track with Bell that
Jack Blair sought
Fred Widmer pressed him close for
advantage, but Blair was the more
popular with the elders as he was in
dependently rich and Fred was de-
pendent upon the salary he received
as manager for the Automatic Ma
chine company. 1t was not very
large salary as yet, for the company
destined to revolutionize certain lines
of industry with the application of
its new methods, the Industries, as
yet, had refused to be revolutionized
and the fight promised to be long,
hard one.
Blair, counting upon parental sup
port, regarded with mild disdain
Bells slight preference for Widmer
and was graciously patronizing to his
rival.
Blair was offensive in his patron
age. as he was offensive in his love-
making. He had been accustomed
from Childhood to regard money as
the magical and that can conjure
up the hearts desires. He had
sought to impress the elder Storys
with his wealth, instead of suing for
Bells favor. and SO Widmer, with his
boyish good humor and tender rev.
erence for the woman he loved, had
gained at least one point against his
rival. Bell favored his suit, though it
seemed hopeless case, with both
parents in favor of Blair.
Then came the vacation season, and

Today and tomorrow a large number
of Kingman people will leave for
Phenix, where they will spend the
next week seeing the sights of the
fair. 1t is expected that those that
will go will have the time of their
lives, the weather man predicting the
finest weather of all the year during
the big doings. Flying machines, fast
horses, fast automobiles and all the
big pigs, hogs, cattle, horses, puppy
dogs, and pussy cats, but hush. Don't
mention the mineral exhibits, because
the management is trying to have the
people forget that this territory has
made its reputation by its vast mining
interests and that the alfalfa fellows
are the only ones that are to be con-
sidered in the big show.

Last MONDAY evening one of the
coaches in train number I, while clint b.
ing Yampai hill. struck a switch point
and was swung almost around in the
train. Not one of the passengers or
train men were hurt, and the trains
were delayed only five hours. The &C
cident occurred in the east end of the
yard. Had the train been going down
hill it is probable that a terrible wreck
would have occurred.

Mines of the County
Big Mining Deal Completed

This week James A. Roberts arrived
from New York City and made the
final payment on account of the pur-
chase of the Gold Grown group of mines,
the amount being estimated at 65,000S.
.. D. NJ. Gaddis and the Sauls estate
were the sellers, the money being di-
vided evenly between them The
mines have been under operation the
past two years by the Frisco Mines and
Power company, the property being
equipped with big milling plant and
the mines exploited to a considerable
extent. Nearly a million tons of lbs
ore has been blocked out and a method
of treatment evolved that gives a high
saving of values.
Now that the company is the sole
owner of the property it is probable
that great milling plant will be put
in capable of working 500 or core tons
of ore daily. The recent purchase of
the Burns ranch makes it possible to
get all the water that is necessary for
4 big mill. That the mine is capable
of furnishing the ore is certain, but the
big mill is necessary to make the pro-
position one of the big mines of the
country.
The many friends of o. D. NJ. Gaddis
will be pleased to learn of his good
fortune and hope that many more min
ing sales will be made bv him in the
future, as he has been one of the bigg-
est investors il the mines of the county
of all the business interests com bined.

F 7. Powell, who recently obtained
an option on the Iowa group of mines
from Frank L. Hunt and others, is
getting hosting plant for the prop
erty and will have it in commission
within the next ten days. He is also
making a camp at the mines and will
have every convenience. A pipe line
about a mile in length will convey
water to the camp. A large amount
of supplies have already gone out and
more is to follow shortly. A force of
men will soon be at work deepening
the main shaft and developing the
property below the present depth.
The mine has great possibilities and
is in one of the best mineralized sec
tions of San Francisco district.
The drift from the bottom of the 700
foot shaft of the Tennessee mine, under
the operation of the Needles Mining &
Smelling company, is fast approaching
the point where the old ore shoot is
expected to be penetrated. Some ex-
ceptionally rich bodies of lead ore have
already been cut, but it is thought that
a regular shoot will be found under the
old workings. On the 600 level, the
miners that worked there claim a great
ore body was opened, the floor of that
drift being composed entirely of ore.
So it is reasonable to expect big ore
body on the 700 below that point.
Gov. John Lind came in from San
Francisco last Tuesday night and de-
parted the following morning to the
Hercules camp, where he will visit a
few days with general manager A. W.
Bratlund of that property. Gov. Lind
is interested in the Hercules and other
mining property in that neighborhood.
1t is probable that he will soon visit
this county again and look into its pos
sibility for large investment. The peo-
pie of this county would be more than
pleased to have a man of the capability
and sterling honesty of Gov. Lind to
settle down among them and lend a
helping hand in the reclamation of
the vast tracts of rich land.
FIJI. Summeril, who is looking af-
ter interests of his Denver associates
at Gold Road, was Kingman visitor
this week. He has made an exami-
nation of the Dudek tungsten mines,
situated twelve miles east of Yucca,
and it is probable that development
work will soon be under way on the
properties. The mines have a fine
showing of ore in all the openings,
Mr.. Dudek and partners having done
a large amount of work that shows up
the prospective value of the property
to advantage.
