COUNTY BRIDGES ARE
TO Be SUBSTANTIAL

MOTT, April 23.-The visitation of
Commissioners Herstein. Bohn and
Conradson last week to the scenes
along the Cannonball river and Thirty
Mile creek revealed some astonish-
ing facts. The high water simply
played havoc with half dozen DIFF
fefent bridges-some Of which were
swept out entirely and floated down
the stream. While most Of the bridges
will be replaced in as substantial =
manner as is possible, no more Of
their kind will be constructed when
the commissioners have occasion to
build new ones. They believe it IL;
not q business proposition to erect
anything but substantial bridges here
after, where high water IL liable to
interfere with the traffic. It IL esti.
mated that the damage done this
spring together with the cost Of the
new bridge to be erected will aggre-
gate $4,000.

Last Monday morning Gaddls x Perry Company received an order for two collins from the Grand Canyon Lime and Cement company and under- taker VanMarter made the shipment. Inquiry developed the fact that two Mexicans had been killed at the lime Quarry by an explosion of both giant and black powder, early in the morn- ing. The bodies of the two victims were horribly mutilated. The man was one of the Quarry workers and was close to the powder when the explos- ion took place. His body was literally torn to pieces. The other, a boy of twelve, was carrying a bucket of water some distance away and was knocked down by the force of the explosion and every bone in his body broken. Death in each case was instantanious. How the powder was exploded is unknown, but the theory is that sparks from the lime kiln stacks may have fallen into some black powder, which In turn ex- ploded the giant powder.
 The first cause ever tried in this county under the eight hour law came up before the Justice's Court of King man precint Thursday last on com plaint from the Golconda mine. Max imo Avilas was accused of working a miner in his employ more than eight hours in one day. Avilas acknowledg- ed that this was true and the court inn posed the minimum fine of lO0S. Avilas and another man had contract to sink shaft on the Golconda and it was in this work that the man was worked overtime.
 The lawyers of this county have been holding sessions at the courthouse the past two weeks and have formulated rules for the Superior Court. These rules will be printed and distributed among the legal fraternity of the state for their guidance in the bringing of actions in the courts of this county. The rules will be nicely gotton up and will cover all points of procedure.

Almost A Miracle.

One of the most startling changes ever seen in any man, according to w. B. Holsclaw, Clarendon, Tex, was ef- fected years ago in his brother. "He had such dreadful cough" he writes, "that all our family thought he was going into consumption, but he began to use Dr. Kings New Discovery. and was completely cured by ten bottles. Now he is sound and well and weighs 2lS pounds. For many years our lam. fly has used this wonderful remedy for Coughs and Colds with excellent re. suits" It's quick, safe, reliable and guaranteed.

SuperlorC Court.

Judge Carl G. Krook, of the Super for Court of this county, has set the first term of the court to be held or the 9th day of May. An order for a grand and trial jury has been made and the jury list will be placed in the hands of the sheriff shortly. The term will be rather long. as many causes are to be tired. There are about twelve felony causes on the docket, besides large number of civil causes. It will be the intention of the court to clear the docket of many of the old causes that have hung fire in the court many years. This can be done readily, as the court will be in session as long as there is a cause to be heard. Liti- gants will not have the excuse now that they can not prepare their cause because they do not know that the court will remain in session long enough to reach their cause, and they cannot incur the expense of bringing witnesses here.

State Engineer Lamar Cobb has been looking over the state highway through the north part of the state, coming to King man last Monday. He accompan- jed Supervisor Potts to Goldroad and Tom Reed Wednesday to ascertain the needs of the county in the way of a state road and will report to the board the needs of thls section. He inform ed the MINER editor that it was his in tention to at once make survey of the road through Klngman canyon and be. gin the construction of the road. He was very we'll pleased with conditions here along mining lines and will give good report of the county wherever he may go. He found more white labor employed in this county than in any other section of the state and gain ed the knowledge that better results were obtained from it than from any other class of labor tried out. It is probable that survey corps will soon be sent to this county to make the in, itial survey for road work and it be- hooves the people to get together and have the work done where it will do the most good.
