 YAvAPAI CLUB SMOKER
(From Sundays Daily.)


 Last night in the assembly room of the Yavapai club the entire roster of officers now stationed at Camp Brodie were entertained by the mem bers of the club. There were thirty officers present, representing com panis B, C, H, L, N, and l, as well as members of companies A, D, and G, of the Arizona National Guard.
 The assembly hall was filled with fables at which the guests were seated while the strains of the Moose orchestra accompanied them in their songs. Aside from the singing of national and patriotic airs the com pany was entertained by stories from the clubs best known raeenteurs and by a song and dance act, by Man ming and Ward from the Elks, and a clever Chinese act by Harry Wal ton of the New State.
 At ten-thirty, Harry Heap delight ed the crowd by his beautiful rendi- tion of a ditty entitled, "Christo- pboro Colombo" Paul Burks added to the enjoyment of the evening with his solos. Malcolm Fraser likewise added to the musical enjoyment of the affair.

OLD MINES MAY RESUME.
 (From Saturda9,s paifvN

While in the city yesterday from his mining camp in Crook Canyon, Lute Wilson said that it is generally believed from reports in circulation and preliminary work under way, that the Senator, Cash and Sundanee mines will resume operations soon. All three properties are being worked with small crews. Engineer Lewis of the territorial highway is near the Senator hill with his corps, locating a new route near the old road, which passes through the claims MT. Will son owns. He has given a right of way through his property, and states that the highway passing through that section on the new grade will afford miners economic transporta- tiOn. The building of the road on the plans outlined meets with the approval of all, and is welcomed as one of the greatest of public i'm provements ever extended that sec tioD.

TERRIFIC STORM
 SWEEPS OVER wINsLoW
CFron Sundays Daily.)

Arrivals yesterday from the main line of the Santa Fe railroad, give accounts of an unusual experience when the westbound passenger train pulled into WinslOw late on Thurs day night, in the face of a raging storm, which developed into a cloud burst and created a veritable lake for a radius of many miles. In fact the land was inundated to the depth of over one foot, and the passengers who alighted were compelled to take their shoes and stockings off to wade te the Harvey house for something to eat. In this ludierous plight they devOured their meals with alacrity and re-entered the coach. The library room of the big building was found in a pitable condition, and over one foot of water was standing on the floor, on account of its lower eleva. tion. In other portions of the house the water was not quite as deep but covered the floor for several inches. Throughout the town the water entered every home and busl ness place, and when it reeeded 8 deep coating of red adobe mud wa' left behind, otherwise no damage re suited. Such a scene had never be fore prevailed in that section, and il is estimated that over three inche. of rain fell in the short space of two hours.

RUSHING WORK ON
 TERRITORIAL HIGHWAY.
CFrom Thursdays DalyJ

Arrivals in Prescott from Beaver Creek in the past few days, state that the building of the territorial high way through that section is being rushed by J. A. Trenberth, contractor, with a force of 125 men and sixty teams. The work being performed IS the most important on the route to Flagstaff, and owing to a new grade being established, will require some time to complete. The new road to the MogollOn plateau diverts at MOntezuma's Well and passes up Beaver Creek on a new survey, and gently winds up the mountain on an easy grade, avoiding the old route that goes by Beaver Head. The lat ter is steep and rough. After the present heavy grading is finished, tine work will proceed more rapidly, and before fall it is expected that Flagstaff can be reached by auto mobiles or any other class of ve- hicles.
 An article recently published in a Flagstaff paper that but twenty miles of this roadway from Beaver Creek
 
 year. was misleading. Territorial Engineer J. B. Grand, and R. A. Craig, of the board of control, who returned from Flagstaff Tuesday, both state emphatically that the work under way on the northern division, will be continued without interrup- ton until that city is connected and the plans outlined are carried to com pletion. The work will be heavy, and while no new grades will be es- tablished, outside of ascending the Mogollon plateau, repairing of the old road will be vigorously pushed to make it feasible until an addi- tional appropriation is available for constructing a first-class highway.
 MT. Girand is taking a deep inter est in the highway movement through out the territory and in his important | duties is actuated in favoring all sections alike and in accordance with official instructions from the board ! of control. The money available is being diligently applied, and without regard to sectional considerations is being equitably distributed, in which all communities are being favored to { the fullest extent.

been included in their experiment sta tion budget for the present fiscal year, will be approved; the Prescott National Bank, Bank of Arizona, BashfOrd-Burmister Company and Arizona Land and Irrigation Com pany each have subscribed $100; the Head Lumber Company, Samuel Hill Hardware Company and the Arizona Mine Supply Company contributed $50 each, leaving $45O to make up the yearly complement of s20OO, which Professors Forbes and Me Omie deem the necessary minimum for the carrying out of the experiment.
 Professor McOmie spied the land over thoroughly during June, taking samples to the university laboratory for analysis. The results of these tests have as yet not been made pub lie. Thurday, Professor MeOmie re- turned to Prescott, accompanied by Professor R. H. Forbes, in charge of the experimental work of the uni versity.
 Together, they have been making daily trips as guests of the Chamber of Commerce and it is deemed certain at this writing, that a tract of land within easy access to Prescott, prob ably in or near Lonesome valley, will be chosen.
 MT. Radley drove the savants over a large part of the county Friday. but failed to find any "dry" land whatsoever. 'The professors are certainly workers" said Radley. At the present rate of progress there seems no diseounting the probability that the new experiment station will be launched before the end of July.

GOOD ORE IS CUT
 IN COPPER QUEEN
(From Wednesdays Daily.)

htuutoudN OdlAN
 Development on the Copper Queen Gold Mining Company's properties near Mayer, has assumed censidera- tion during the past few weeks was the statement made yesterday by w. J. Deam, in charge of contract work, and in his opinion the outlook is very encouraging for the creation of a splendid proposition. The work un- der way by tunneling to crosscut sev- eral lodges showing on the surface, and SO far a distance of 300 feet has been reached. The objective point is 1000 feet, when it is ex- peeted the mineral system will be thoroughly explored. During the past twelve feet unusual conditions have been determined, fifty-two feet of ore being developed that gives re- turns in copper of per cent, s in gold and nominal silver values. Lower grade ores were developed in pre- vious operations up to this point.
 Louis Goldman, president, and MT. Pettus, director, are on the ground and express themselves as pleased over what has been accomplished and are much encouraged over the future possibilities of their interests. Sink ing will begin immediately from the tunnel, and the plan is to prosecute general development. Electrical pow CT will be substituted for gasoline engines, and arrangements are to be made immediately for this installa- tion. The introduction of a plant to treat the ores will not be taken up until after all development has been performed, which will require several months. An upraise to the surface is also under contemplation, after the tunnel work progresses to the point decided upon.
 The affairs of this company are in a healthy condition and they are operating along practical lines in a quiet manner, contemplating the out lay of considerable capital.

AUTO RUNS TO OPEN
 TERRITORIAL ROADS

TUCSON, Ariz-, July R.-When the territorial highway now in course of construction in Pima county is completed, it will be formally opened by a big automobile run all over the territory where the territorial roads reach. By the time the Southern Arizona highway is completed it is considered certain that the north and south road will have been built through to the Grand Canyon.
 Territorial Auditor George Mauk has made a suggestion that the call for the run be issued by George Purdy Bullard, president of the Mari eopa Automobile club and that sim ultaneously all other automobile as soeiations of the territory issue sim liar calls to their members.
 The run will be started at Pres colt. At Phoenix the Marieopa county motor enthusiasts will fall in line and will be joined here by the Tucson automobilists they will travel over the territorial highway to Globe and Douglas, gathering up auto owners in both cities.
 From Douglas they will travel north to Globe, through to the Grand Canyon by the county roads which are to be built from Globe, and from the canyon to Prescott and thence south again to the homes of the. various parties.

INTENSE HEAT
 CAUSED BY BIG CITIES.

CHICAGO. Ills, July 1.-The big cities are changing the climate and greatly responsible for the recent ex- traordinary hot wave, according to Reginald Phelam Bolton. president of the American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers. The assertion was made at the convention of the engineers at the Hotel LaSalle. He ton. 'EZero temperature has been infrequent for many years in that city,'' said MT. Bolton, "and un- known since 1904. At the same time the rainfall has decreased four inches since 1903 and the number of cloud less days has increased from 96 to 114 There is nineteen million tons of coal or its equivalent in other fuels consumed in this city each year. Adding this to the animal heat from 5,O00,000 persons, equivalent to about 43S,000 tons of coal annually, and the various other sources of heat, in- cluding heated gases, radiation and friction of various sorts, and the result is sufficient to heat the air for a distance of a mile beyond the city limits to a point several degrees above its normal temperature. The daily volume of these gases rising from the city is more than l15,OOO,OOO cubic feet, heated to $50 degrees. These ascending waves of heat warm the upper layers of the air and in crease their capacity to absorb water" One result of the hot wave in Chicago has been to accelerate the movement to have the municipality take over every foot of its twenty three miles of lake front and dot it frequently with municipal bathing beaches.

YAVAPAI TO HAVE
 EXPERIMENT FARM
New Station Will be Started Before End of Present Month Within A
 Few Miles of This City

Ysvapai county is to have a scien- tific farming experimental station within the next fortnight and the tract is toa be located within a very few miles of this city.
 Early in March, when Secretary Fraser assumed his duties, he ob- tained an appropriation from that body, with which to bring an expert to Prescott, to examine the so-ealled "semi-arid' soils of Yavapai county, with a view to their possibilities as farm lands.
 Dr. V. T. Cooke, highly recommend ed by the Dry Farming Congress, of Colorado Springs, came to Prescott on April first, spent ten days in the county and stated at a. public meet ing in the High school, that, in his opinion, the soils of Lonesome, Kirk land, Agua Fria and other Yavapai valleys were susceptible to the rais- ing of merchantable crops of alfalfa, other folders and. cereal crops, by scientific farming.
 In May, Professor McOmie, of the Arizona University came to Prescott and stayed a few days, coming to the same conclusions as his predeees- sor. The Chamber of Commerce did everything possible to further the plans of the experts from Tucson and enlisted the cooperation of the Santa Fe, through Messrs. Draks and Hastings, with the result that the railroad has subscribed S1,000 a year for a period of two years; Governor Sloan and the board of control have intimated to the university people

HEAVY SULPHIDE
 UNCOVERED IN LA GARCIA
(FTom Thursdays Daily.)

Major T. C. Jordan, of the board of directors of the LaGraeia Mining Company, passed through the city Monday from his camp in the Black Hills, to participate in a meeting that has been called to take place at Long Beach, Cal, on Thursday, in view of very important determina- tlOns that have been made in devel- Opment during the past few weeks. Major Jordan stated that he has been at the works for the past three months, and during the last few weeks in new ground opened up in the face of a tunnel 800 feet long, a heavy sulphide ore body has been developed that carrier the best values ever returned in copper, gold and silver. This tunnel will be extended 60 feet further. The force will be increased to the maximum number the ground will warrant, in view of what has been accomplished, which is stated to be the most satisfactory in the history of the proposition.
 During the past year the company has been actively engaged in exten- sively exploration, and selected three places in which to prosecute work. The main tunnel gives a depth of over zoo feet and will be the central point of operations Major Jordan will return to his camp next week, and intends to remain permanently.

CAUGHT SELLING
STOLEN HARNESS


A battling case of knayery was re-
ported to the city police department
in the early part of May, when S. NJ.
Houston, living at the corner of Van
Buren, and Seventh street. lost a COM
plete set OF driving harness which was
stolen during his absence in another
part of the city. 1t is possible that
had Jack Myers. the alleged thief. not
been detected in the act of selling the
stolen harness last Friday, the case
would have resulted in neither the re
storation of the plumber nor the pun
ishment Of the rObber.
The harness had been bought by
Houston a few weeks before the
theft, and had been used but little

it was thought that there was small

Last Friday. after the interest at
tached to the affair had died down
sufficiently, Myers thought. to allow
the harness to be disposed of without
danger or question, he took it to a
secondhand dealer near Five Points,
and sold it at good figure.
Unfortunately for Myers and FORUM
ately for Houston, the harness was
recognized and the police Immediately
began to hunt the man who had made
the deal with the secondhand agent
With the assistance of a small boy
who had been present when Myers
came in to sell the harness. he was
apprehended yesterday. and was ar
rested to await a hearing on the
charge of stealing the harness.
Nothing was learned from the pris-
oner last night. as he displayed an I'M
usually small amount OF interest in
the charge on which he had been ar
rested. He was taken to the city jail
without asking the reason for his
detention, and neither asked nor gave
information. The Investigations of the
force will disclose the part he had IN
