The Nader Boat Found.

This week Paul Nader, son of Wesley Nader, the placer miner who has been lost since the first of the year, passed through Kingman on his way to Needles, from which point he will con- tinue the search for his father. Today Frank NJ. Barnes is on his way to the vicinity of the Nader placer mines and intends to go down the river by boat and will make thorough search for Nader. alive or dead. On his recent trip down the river he found an over turned boat, apparently new, near the mouth of Jumbo wash, where Sandy Harris and party of prospectors were at work. Harris had seen nothing of Nader, nor had he observed the boat, which was stuck on sand bar some distance below his camp. All the men along the river have been notified anG a diligent search will be made for the missing man.
 Nader went from St. Louis by way of St. Thomas, to the placer mines on the river, and about the first of the year wrote his wife that he intended to start home in a few days, since which time nothing has been heard of him.

 H. T. Hughes, of the Swansea Con. Smelling company, arrived in King man last Sunday and in company of James O'Brien, went out to make an examination of the de la Fountaine and Cupel mines. Owing to the storm his work qt the properties was some- what hampered. but it is the intention of the company to do considerable work on the llines and possibly begin the shipment of ore to the smelters as soon as the Cupel shaft has been put in shape to mine through. Mr. Hughes brought with him from Swansea samples of the new ore en. countered in the 400 foot shaft on the old Copper Prince group, which shows big sheets of native copper, drought which the shaft was sunk ten feet. entering the sulphde zone. The churn drill was driven seventy feet into the sulphide, and it is that part of the mlne that is now being developed. as the shelter needs sulphide ore bad ly. The company is keeping a large force of miners at work on the mine and expect to prove it a winner.
 The Los Angeles Herald of the l2th has an article crticising the officers of this county for attempting to collect tax on implements and several hun dred head of mules under lease to the government, and now being used in the diking of the Colorado river below Fort Mohave, and predicting a clash between the Indians and federal authorities on the one side and the civil authorities on the other. The story is quite sensational, but it has very little basis in truth. The fact of the matter is that the assessor of this county proposed to assess and collect taxes on large amount of individual ly owned property that is under lease to the government and the Indian agent warned the assessors against performing this duty, contending that property under lease to the govern ment is not subject to taxation. The local authorities are under the i'm pression that the agent has another guess coming and will assess and col lect the tax. The opinion given the agent by U. s. Attorney Richey only referred to government owned prop erty, which is not in question.
