VERDICT OF JURY
 IS ACCIDENTAL DEATH
tFrom wednesday.s DaIIv,

The death of John Burdge, which
 took place at Bouse Monday morning.
 according to the verdict of eoron- CTS jury, was due to a gun shot
 wound. The report that MT. Burdge committed suicide is incorrect and according to several who arrived in the city yesterday from Bouse, the death of this popular young man is believed to have resulted accidentally which was borne out after an in- vestigatiOn was made. It was learn ed that MT. Burdge arose from bed at an early hour Monday morning, after hearing coyotes yelping and which he believed were endeavoring to make a raid on his chickens, as they had often done. He picked up his 9 calibre rifle, lying under his pillow and after a few minutes re- turned to the room, without firing shot. He stopped in the room to take a drink of water, informing his brother Paul that it was too dark to see the sight on his gun, and he would go to bed. In replacing the gun underneath the pillow an explo- sion followed and he fell dead on the bed with bullet through the left temple. It is the supposition that when he went out of the room he cooked the gun, and after returning failed to lower the hammer. In plae- ing the weapon where he could con veniently reach it in the night time, it is believed, the trigger came in contact with a nail, with the above sad result.
 The remains were brought to Pres eott yesterday by Lester Ruffner, and the funeral will be held this after noon. His brother, Paul, and brother in law, Walter Cook, accompanied the remains from Bouse

SHORT SESSION
 OF THE CITY COUNCIL
From Thursdays Daily)

All members were present at the monthly session of the council last night. Outside of routine business there was little of importance that developed.
 Application for cancellation of the taxes on the parsonage of the Baptist church, was granted by a vote of 3 to ?, Beleher and the Mayor voting in the negative.
 The clerk was instructed to give notice requiring sidewalks to be laid in front of the property on North MOntezuma street below the Brink meyer hotel
 Street committee reported unfavor- ably upon the petition to lay sewer in Washington street in the Otis ad- ditiOn. the cost of the same being estimated by the city engineer at S237s. The council considered that as only five houses were. to be serv- ed. the expense was not warranted at this time.
 Health Officer Southworth reported seven births and six deaths during September. There were no diseases of an epidemic character
 Recorder Robinson reported collee- tiOn of fines amounting to $469.
 Treasurer SchOley's report showed a balance in the treasury of $12,r74.74 the disbursements being S4434.31, and the receipts $5024.S1.
 There were 79 arrests reported by Chief of Police Heisler.
 The expenses of the water depart ment for the month. were $l664.s7, while the value of the water billed put was $3,s41.0s, according to Super Halls report.
 Licenses collected amounted to S230; tax collections, $15,s59.39: street i'm $172.71; water, $S,953,45
 Chief of Police Heisler was grant I'd leave of absence for two weeks, md Mayor Goldwater was given a ike dispensation for thirty days as ne said it was possible he might be obliged to take a trip to New York.
 The council then adjourned.

FORCE INCREASED ON CLIMAX
 MINE
(From Tuesdays daily)

As a result of the examination made of the Climax mine on the Has sayampa river, R. M. Martin, presi- dent of the company, yesterday stat ed that orders had been given NJ. E. Spaulding, manager, to increase the mine force immediately and to Oper- ate in the zone where rich ore bodies had recently been developed. MT. Martin states that the richest free ores ever known had been uncovered in the lower levels and which inform ation was withheld from the public until he made a personal investiga- tion. MT. Martin also stated that while it is true, the group is under option to coast syndicate and that November 15 is the date set for clos ing the deal, there is every probabil ity of the same taking place. If not, the property will be more energetical- ly operated than ever. and with pro duetion and the heavy bullion re- turns the stockholders are enthusias- tie over the enterprise. He returned to Los Angeles yesterday, and con templates visiting the property again in a few weeks.

MINE WATCHMAN
 FOUND COLD IN DEATH
FrOm Wednesdays Daily)

At the camp of the Flour Gold Mining company, in Humbug district, the dead body of MT. Drais, the keeper, was found a few days ago, was the report brought to Prescott yesterday by C. E. Tucker, who lives at the old toll house and is engaged in the cattle business. From the ap- pearanee of the body it is believed that MT. Davis expired several days before he was found. An examina- tion showed no marks of violence on the body. it is believed heart trouble, from which afflictiOn he had suf- fered for many years was the cause of death. The body was found lying on the ground in front of the build ing he occupied. He had been look ing after the property of the above mining company for several months, and was alone in the camp at all times, except when an occasional traveller passed through. He com- plained of being in poor health and his death was not unexpected. He was over 60 years cid, and nothing is known of his relatives. The body will be buried today, without the formality of holding an inquest.

ELKS' DAY TO BE
 FEATURE OF FAIR

PHOENIX, Ariz., Oct. I. It has been definitely decided that Elks day at the Territorial fair is to be the biggest success of any day here tOfore furnished for the amusement and entertainment of the thousands of persons who will visit the big November show.
 Included in the events will be var ious contests the prizes being silver cups for the lodges of the state which make the best shOwings and a big ball to be held in the evening, down town. This ball, it is declared, will be the most gorgeous affair of the entire social season and the belles of Arizona can therefore look forward to a "doings' this winter the like of which it has not hitherto been their pleasure to adOrn with their presence.
 On Wednesday of fair week a con- ference of Elks will be held at the Elks Opera House for the purpose of discussing the formation of a state organization. There has never been anything of this nature in Arizona ElkdOm, and it has been many times sadly missed. The organization is not to be confused in the public mind with state grand lodge, such as the MasOns and many other secret so- cieties have. There is no such organ ization in Elkdom as a state grand lodge and the grand lodge of Elks will not recognize the state organi- afinns

 RESUMED Shaft Being Unwatered And New Buildings
 Erected
 
TEN STAMP MILL EXPECTED TO
 BE FINISHED IN "a {: THREE WEEKS
(From Sundays Daily.)

With the readjustment of the cor porate affairs of the Mint Gold Min ing company, which was effected a short time ago, the resumption of work on the Mint mine in Copper Basin district was formally annOunc- ed yesterday by Robert Mitchell, president and general manager. and who will be assisted by T. A. Me Cullough, as superintendent Before active development will be inaugural ed, a few weeks will elapse, was the statement made yesterday by Mir Mitchell, who returned to the camp after a brief business visit The ten stamp mill will be completed, and inside of the next three weeks will be ready to run. A new blacksmith shop and other buildings are to be erected and repairs to old houses made to accommodate at least thirty miners. As soon as the unwatering of the main shaft 235 feet deep, is accomplished a system of practical exploration will begin.
 From observations made recently of the property, NIT. Mitchell is elated over the possibilities of the property and being practical miner, speaks advisedly of the favorable indica- tions. From past development there is available for milling about 25OO tons of free gold ore, which also carries small percentage in sul- phides. A large shipment of miseel- laneous utilities for the camp left the city yesterday.

If you are challenged at the direct primary you are forced to take an oath declaring your party utilization. This succeeds in doing away with a split ticket at the primary and makes you vote with the gang. It is a clever and devilish method of framing up party fences and making you vote according to the ruling of the boss instead of following your own in clination. By the Australian ballot you are permitted to vote as you please and do not have to take an oath declaring that you are a hide bound member of any party. Just what was the purpose of the direct primary?
