The O. x c. Development company is getting things in shape for the in- stallation of the chilian mill at the mines. The work is under the man. ayement of w. H. Ochs, president of the company. Mir. Ochs has had years of experience in the mines of the west and knows how to do the right thing in bringing together mining and mil ling operations. The mine is showing up splendidly under the development, the ore showing free gold in much of it.
 Little Howard Hoffman met with severe injury last Saturday afternoon by falling between the wagon bed and wheel of the Tarr & McComb delivery wagon. His face was badly cut and he sustained contusions all over his body. He is now getting along all right.

Statehood on February 12th.

An effort is being made to have the president issue his proclamation desig- hating February l2th-Lincoln's Birth day for Arizona. The certified returns of the election last December will be in the presidents $ hands on the sixth or seventh of the month and immediately thereafter the proclamation admitting the new state will be issued. If the date is set for the l2th it will be proclaimed legal holiday by Gov. Sloan, and the day given over to general rejoicing.

District Courts and Statehood.

With the proclamation of the presi. dent declaring Arizona State of the Union the last of the District Courts of the United States will pass away, Cir cult courts taking the place of the court. With the passing of the court will also pass all the officers under it. This, of course, will not effect the U. s. Attorneyship nor the U. s. Marshall, these offices beng under the depart ment of Justice, but being filled by the president in the same manner that the judges of the courts are He'd, but all appointees of the courts, such as clerks, commissioners, &c.,. will pass away. The result of the demise of the courts, it is alleged by some newspapers, will result in chaos in the new State, as it may be months before the office of cir cult judge is filled and during that time there can be no federal prose- cutions. This is rather far fetched. as the law officers of the department of justice remaln and can bring any nec- essary causes before justices of the peace for preliminary examination and commitments will be just as valid from these courts as from a commissioner of the new circuit court Crime against the government will not necess arily be rampant because few officers have to step down and out. -..

Death of M. ScanIon.

M. Scanlon, one of the old timers of this county, died at Chloride sometime during Tuesday night, being found dead in bed the following morning. His death was from natural causes and apparently the end came without a struggle.
 Deceased came to this county in 1853 or 1884 and settled in the Lost Basin district of this county, where he engaged in mining and established a ferry on the Colorado river. This ferry he maintained many years, but after the White Hills was discovered he re- moved to that place, having disposed of the ferry business to MT. Gregg. He was married to Mrs. Agnes Merrill in the year 1900, ant together they lived happily in the great silver camp. Several years ago MT. and Mrs. Scan- Ion removed to Yavapai county, where they were interested in a recovery plant at the McCabe mine, later re- moving to Los Angeles.
 Among the old timers that knew him well Mr. Scanlon had many fast friends and many of these attended his funeral in body. Mrs. Scanlon was called from Los Angeles, arriving here Thursday night.
 The funeral was held yesterday af- ternoon from Elks Opera House under the auspices of the Elks lodge. of which deceased had been a member. The officers of the lodge conducted the beautiful funeral service of the order and Judge Carl Krook delivered the eulogy. The remains were followed to the grave by large body of people.
 Michael Scanlon was at one time a supervisor of the county, the chairman of the board during 1891 and 1S]S He was the owner of valuable property in the Lost Basin district and had a sale on when death claimed him. He leaves a widow to mourn his loss.

The Wallapai Indians in and around Kingman are somewhat exercised over the proposition of placing them on farms on the Big Sandy, the older members of the tribe claiming that
 this place having been home to them all their lives it would he unfair to re- move them in the eventde of their ex. istence. It is not the intention of the Indian department to place all the In. dians on farm lands, but those that de- sire to farm will be given an oppor- tunity. It is probable that it will be but few years until the Indians will desire farms for each. as the prosper ity of the farmers is sure to have 8 effect on the nonfarming elemen'. Any inovation is always opposed " the old Indians and this opposition must be circumvented in some manner. It should be made possible to place all Indians on ranches that are in the habit of hanging around town impress ing hobos and unwary men into pur- chasing liquor for them and then go- ing to the camps and terrorize the squaws and children.
 J. B. Grand, territorial engineer. and R. A. Craig, citizen member of the Board of Control of Arizona, &C., companied John c. Potts to Gold Road last Saturday on an inspection trip of the roads. The gentlemen came here to inspect the county roads and see where the first territorial road work should be laid out. As they are to go out of office sometime this month it is probable that they will simply make recommendation to their successors to expend several thousand dollars in building a road through Klngman canyon. The gentlemen were much surprised to find that Mohave county was on the map of Arizona and among the most progressive of all the north- ern counties. This was the first trip ever taken to this county by any of the territorial officers, but we hope that under the new regime the visits will be frequent.
 The funeral of the late Charles Will kins was held from the M. E. church last Sunday afternoon, Judge w. G. Blakely preaching the funeral sermon. The little edifice was filed to over- flowing with friends and acquaintances of deceased that had come to pay their last tribute of respect. A large procession followed the remains to the cemetary. Mr. Wilkins had lived nearly thirty years in Mohave county and was known and liked by host of people.

INTEREST in ROAD BONDS
oHANc@RY CLERK RECEIVES MANY INQUIRIES FROM pRospec
TIVE PuRcHAsERs-rHE HIGHWAYS TO BE IMPROVED
AGGREGATE ABOUT foRTYsM MILES,

Chancery Clerk ellis states that
from the large number of letters max
ing inquiries relative to the proposed
bodybuilding to be done in beats one
and three, with the money to be de-
| rived from the sale of 100000 Of bonds
recently authorized, he judges that the
matter must have received wide pub
licity. The inquiries come from many
quarters and relate to every conceiv-
able feature of the proposed plan. The
two beats that chose to combine and
elected to come under the provisions
of the bond issue, embrace townships
Alp and Alb, containing seventy-two
square miles, both beats being partly
within the corporate limits of Hatties-
burg.
There are approximately forty-six
miles of public highways within this
territory outside of the city of Hat
tiesburg, and the improvements con-
templated will embrace those streets
within the corporate limits of Hatties-
burg, which connect directly with
country highways. The present plans,
relative to the matter of where the
work will be done are said to include
Hardy street and it's road extension |
to the Lamar county line; West Pine !
street and its road extension by way
Of Bonhomie to Lamar county line near
Richburg; Edwards street and its road
extension out the Hattiesburg and
Black Creek road to beat line near

BIG SEAL SALES
At GREENVILLE

Jackson, Miss, Dec. 1S.-The city Of
Greenville promises to lead the state
OF Mississippi in the sale of Red Cross
Christmas seals. Miss Elise William
son, secretary of the Association for
the prevention of tuberculosis in this
state, has received a letter from Hon
Louis Waldeur, postmaster at Green
vile, ordering an additional $4,000
seals, and stating that Greenville and
vicinity will dispose of over 100000
seals during the Christmas period.
Some of the other large towns in
the state, however, have not shown
the interest and enthusiasm that the
cause merits, and they are being urged
to perform their pro rata share of the
work, in order that Mississippi can
make her expected showing in the fl
nal report.
