Dry PIaCerS In Yuma County

(By W. A. Root, in Mining and Engin-
 eering World)
 In the early days of mining in Ari- zona during the years from the eos to the sos. a section Of Yuma county known as the Plomosa, La Paz and Middle Camp diggings, considerable gold was taken from the gravel The methods used in gulch and gravel min ing were crude indeed, and only rich surfoce values obtained. leaving much wealth in the waste and old dumpings.
 Prospecting of the PlomoSa placers during recent years has proven them to be of uunusUal richness. They are located in Posas valley, a great north and south depression, with the PlomO- sd mountains forming the eastern bOr- der; with the northward extension of the Castle Dome range on the west This valley extends northward for 90 to 40 miles and is from 10 to r. miles wide, and affords an extensive field for placer or gravel mining. On the eastern side of this valley in the Plo- mosa placer and the western all extended deposit Of goldbearing gravel which, in various parts are known as La Cholla. Gro Fino and Middle Camp diggings. Tn some localities pits have been sunk to a depth of 20, 30 and 50 ft 10 beds of cement which are richer than the gravel Miles of the great deposit extending westward from the mountains. forming deep ravines, and they afford miles of banks 10 to l" ft. hieh in which the upper layers of grav- el are well exposed. From these banks samples taken by a mining engineer who was thoroughly investigating the entire section. gave an average return value of G4 cents per cu. yd. Not m any samples were any failures. \ dry washer was used. winnowing the sand bv means of a rotary fan, which blows uuder a fine screen, over which the same passes in d fine stream.

 Across the valley and about l2 miles from the Plomosa placer. IS another bed of gravel of similar extent and oi higb ouaIity This western mass or gravel is occupied at various places bv three camps, all rich in gold ana aII differing materially in character Of the gravel.

A FIRE HORSE HURT
BY Falling While Running to
a Fire.

In answering an alarm of fire yes
terday afternoon shortly before s
o'clock, coming from box A, at Eighth
and North G streets, one of the horses
pulling hose wagon No Slipped and
fell on the car tracks at Eighth ami
North E streets. In falling it pulled
the other horse to the ground. Fortu-
nately the wagon was not overturned
and none of the firemen was injured.
The horses were scratched, but were
not seriously hurt. The tongue of the
wagon was broken and the wagon
could not proceed to the scene OF the
fire.
The fire was at the home OF Guy
Dalby. $40 North Eighth street. The
blaze was soon extinguished. The fire
it is believed, started from defective
chimney.
Shortly before this call the depart
ment answered an alarm OF fire at
South Second ard B streets. A shed
belonging to George TinappIe caught
fire in some manner, but the damage
was slight. 1t Is presumed that this
fire started from flying sparks from
passing engines.

MISSOURI DISPUTED
Both Taft and Roosevelt Fac
tions Claim 1t.
National News Association)

ST. LOUIS. Mo-, April 24-With
both Roosevelt and Taft leaders
.claiming control, there is every indi-
cation of an interesting session when
the Republican State convention is
held here tomorrow to name Miss
ouri's four delegates-at-large to the
Republican national convention. The
convention will have 1852 delegates
and it will take 577 votes to control.
The Taft managers claim 707 votes
and concede 444 to Roosevelt The
Roosevelt managers claim 713 and
concede 43S to Taft. In both these
estimates are included the contested
delegates and the uninstructed dele
gates, of which latter there are a con-
siderable number month ago the
Taft forces believed they would have
an easy victory, but the recent prim-
aries. particularly in ST. Louis, which
will have 247 delegates in the conven-
tion, made 1t apparent that Roosevelt
had at least an equal chance of win
ming out, Today the Roosevelt people
are brimful of confidence. So close
appears the contest that many party
leaders predict that the convention
will send the delegates-at-large to
Chicago without instructions for any
presidential candidate

A POLICEMAN AND
SMALL BOY BITTEN
Rabid Dog Runs Amuck Sew
eral Hours Before He Was
Shot to Death.

After having bitten the small son of
Oscar Boner, 200 Richmond avenue
and Patrolman Menke, a small beagle
hound, infected with rabies, whose
owner is unknown, was shot this morn
ing at Fourth and Main streets by Pa
trolman Vogelsong. The dog bit other
dogs, but how many Is not known.
Yesterday afternoon the son of Mr..
Boner was playing in the yard at his
home when the dog attacked him. 1t
was noted that the canine displayed
symptoms of hydrophobia and physi-
clans were called Immediately to at
tend the boy 1t is not thought the bite
will prove serious.
While patrolling his beat last even
ing, near the Pennsylvania station,
Patrolman Menke was attacked by the
same dog and was bitten on the right
leg and right. arm. On account Of the
thickness of the patrolman's clothes
the dog did not sink it's teeth very
deep into Menke's arm and leg. Before
Menke could shoot the dog 1t had turn
ed and made good it's escape.
This morning the dog was seen on
North Fifth street and Patrolman Vo-
gelsong started after it with a shot
gun. At Fifth and Main streets 1t at
tempted to bite dog but did not hesi-
tate long enough for Vogelsong to get
a good shot at 1t. He chased it to
Fourth street where he killed 1t.

INTOXICATED MAN
ALARMED COUNTRY
Albert Wilmer Wanders from
the City and Creates a
Reign of Terror.

Driven to the verge OF insanity by
excessive drinking. Albert Wilmer. of
Alliance. Ohio. who has been working
in this city for the past week, left
town last evening heavily intoxicated
and walked south on the Boston pike,
frightening the wives of farmers along
the pike by his strange actions. This
morning he appeared again in the
same vicinity and farmers. believing
him to be insane, telephoned police
headquarters and the sheriff's ofice
asking that ofiacers be sent to the
scene to place him under arrest
Sheriff Steen with Patrolman vogel
song drove to the home OF Alonzo Dav
export, two and one-haf miles south
east of the city, where they found VIII
mer. He did not attempt to resist the
officers, and he was taken to the coun
ty Jail where he will be confined until
orders have been given for his release
So far there are no charges against
the man.
Wilmer, ii Is said, frightened wives
Of farmers all along the Boston Pike
by stealthily sneaking around homes
knocking at the doors, and making
strange remarks, then running from
one house to another yelling at the tor
of his voice. Mrs. Frank Davenport de
clared that she was very much fright
ened by the mans actions. She said
that he approached her home. which Ii
also on the Boston Pike, and demanded
protection, saying that some men were
chasing him and had vowed to take
his life.
Mrs. Davenport called her husband
but Wilmer took to his heels running
to Alonzo Davenport's home There
after knocking on the rear door and
saying that men were chasing him. he
suddenly picked up a club. which was
lying near the door and running into
small woodshed, he locked the door
saying IL any one entered that build
ing he would beat them to death. How
ever, after a short time, he came ou,
of the building and Mr.. Davenport as
sured him that he would not be harm
ed. The sheriff was then called.
Wilmer says that his home is In AL
lance and that he has been in this
city but one week and has been EN-
ployed at the Wayne Works as a moul
der. He admitted that he had beer
drinking heavily for the past few days
but firmly held to his story that mer
had been chasing him since last even
ing.
He probably will be kept at the
county Jail until he recovers when he
will be released.

BLAZE Which Destroyed Col

Near This City.

Villagers Organize Bucket

Proved Godsend.
fPalladium Specially

ELDORADO, O., April 24-Fire
which for time threatened the des-
truction of the town broke out in the
Colyin hotel here this morning about
five o'clock. resulting in the total des-
truction of the hotel with loss of
about $4,000. The fire was confined to
the hotel building.
The fire was aided by brisk south
west wind which carried the sparks in
every direction, arousing the country
side for miles. The sparks from the
burning hotel fell in showers on the
roofs of neighboring buildings, most
OF them residences, and bucket brig
ade was organized promptly. When the
destruction of the entire town seemed
imminent the wind suddenly changed
and the villagers were successful in
confning the blaze to one building.
The Richmond. Ind. fire department
was notified of the danger the town
was exposed to and on a special train
the No. 3 chemical wagon was sent
over with force of men to assist the
firemen of this town. The Richmond
department arrived too late to be Of
service.
Guests HurrIedIy Leave.
Hotel guests, numbering about a
score. tumbled from their beds when
the alarm was sounded. They hurried
ly gathered together few clothes and
made their escape from the hotel,
which in a short time was seething
mass of flames. The three-story frame
structure burnt like tinder.
The general cry Of fire aroused ev-
eryone, and buckets, force pumps,
sprayers and pans and kettles were
utilized to try to put out the fire. 1t
was in vain the fighters tried to save
the hotel, and they then turned their
attention to keeping down fires in 9TH
er parts Of the town, caused by the
flying brands from the hotel. The fire
finally burned itself out about $50
The foundations buried in ashes and
debris are all that remains.
No one was injured in the Are. No
goods except a few personal belong
ings were saved.
The Hotel Colvin was owned and op-
serated by Mrs. Mollie Colvin, who car
,ried no insurance
The origin Of the fire is uncertain
1t was discovered about Ave O'Clock,
when the roof near the chimney was
seen to be briskly burning. 1t is
thought the fire originated either by
sparks from passing train, or from
defective flue. The hotel was only
about twenty feet from the railroad
tracks
