The last weekly bars of bullion from Gold Road indicate that better results are being obtained in the mill and that higher grade of ore is being handled. George B. Ayers brought in from that place, last Thursday. bar weighing 23,O00S, the same weight of the bar last week. The prosperity of the operating company IS desired by the people of this county and the big ger the bars of bullion the better it will be for the community. The com pany operating this big mine is one of the largest operating companies lh the United States and their prosperity means greater prosperity for the county.
 J. H. Hoffman. who passed through Kingman last evening on his way to Kansas City, reports that ten feet of ore has been struck in the south drift from the 200 level of the Arizona Southwestern Copper company's mines, at Copperville. Assays from this big body gave result of fl ounces silver to the ton. No assay for lead had been made. This strike was made since the MINER editor was on the ground last Tuesday.
 G. w. Foreman, a mining operator of Los Angeles, examined the proper ties of the Cone Mining and Milling company upon Boundary Cone Peak, early this week. Mr. Foreman was well pleased with the showing and advocates 600 foot tunnel to be run upon the vein and which would at tain a depth of 2S5 feet at the main shaft, or 1855 feet below its present depth. Sinking has been resumed by the Cone people.
 Will Carleton has gone to Cheme. huevis mountain. where he will do as- sessment work for the Chemehuevis Gold Mountain Mining company. The property has a good showing of gold in the veins and it is probable that enough ore will be taken out in doing the work to pay all expense.

When his condition points to kidney trouble takes an unwise risk. Back ache, pain and soreness over the kid. neys, nervous or dizzy spells, poor sleep, are all symptoms that will dis appear with the regular use of Foley Kidney Pills. They put the kidneys and bladder in clean, strong and healthy condition. end rheumatic pains, stiff joints, lumbago and irreg- ular bladder action are all relieved promptly when Foley Kidney Pills are taken.

John M. Gross, one of the well known young mining men of Mineral Park, was in Klngman several days this week
 Thomas H. Brobant has gone to ChemehuevIs mountains to do the an nual work on some mining property in which he is interested with Manuel Ruiz.
 Ray Wheelock and wife went out to ! the Enterprise property last Thursday, where annual labor IS being done on the big group of mines owned hy that corporation. It is the impression that something will be doing on this prop erty within the next few months. Newton Evans and son are examin- ing many properties in the country ad- jacent to Yucca to ascertain their ore , bearing qualities. This week exami- nations were made of mines in the Chemehuevls country, as well as those in and around the McCracken. Mr. Evans is also blowing up great tract of land that is to be sowed to late grains. A road is being built from Mohave Gap to the lands over an easy i grade. It is possible that this road way will be the grade over which a railroad will be laid to connect up the mines of McCracken and Big Sandy sections with the main line of the Santa Fe.
 Quite a mum Der of mining men are coming into Mohave county looking for property. The different sections of the county offer great opportunity for investment, but the complaint is gen. eral that working bonds are not ob- tained, the mine owner demanding cash payments on the signing of agreement. Mine owners should know that they are expected to take chances with the operators and receive payment when the mine has at least been opened to a point that will warrant the purchaser in making some payment on it. Long time bonds are preferred by investors and every mine owner should be will ling to grant any reasonable time in which to prove the property.

coming year. government manufacture
of armor, more naval chaplains and
religious leaders, better educational
facilities for enlisted men and a
graduated retirement law are chief
recommendations in the first annual

public today.
The secretary departs from the
usual custom in addressing the presi-

by adding to the directness and force
of the reports statements. The report
reflects his enthusiasm over the navy,
declaring that the story of the years
work "by this patriotic body of eff

plete with examples of courage, devo-
tion, sacrifice and progress"
The secretary says the navy was
never in such high state of efficiency
as today, and that in considering it's
future needs he has given less thought
to the guns than to the men behind
the guns. Believing that the efficiency
of the navy as fighting force will
be in the highest sense promoted by
the adoption of serious and syste-

EFFORT TO
SMOKE OUT
DESPERATE
Ralph Lopez, Making Last
Stand in Mine at Top of
Mountainous Wall
A NELO-DRANATIC SETTING
Fierce Manhunt Believed to
Be Nearing a Sensational
End

Bingham, Utah, Dec. IA final eff
fort with smudges was made in the
Utah Apex mine to force out Ralph Lo-
pez, a desperado, who is making his
last stand. All the exits but one were
closed and sealed with mud. With the
poisonous gases floating back through
the workings it is expected the fugitive
will make a break for liberty this aft
ernoon.
A more dramatic setting for ending
the career of Lopez could scarcely be
found. The mine is near the top of a
precipitous walled canyon. From any
Of it's fifteen tunnel mouths one could
throw a stone that would descend 1000
feet before bottom was struck.
This afternoon the mouth Of Andy
tunnel was stopped with a bull1head
and the fumes Of sulphur smudges
directed into the mine through the
opening. Unless Lopez attempts to
break out it is planned to continue the
Smudging two days.
1t is believed Mike Cranovich. who
shot his wife recently, is also hidden in
the mine. He will be permitted to
surrender peacefully if he comes out.
Lopez began his career Of crime Nov.
81. He took refuge in the mine Fri
day.

a short normal course will be added

courses where advisable.
The recent proposition Of Winston
Churchill first Lord of the British
admiralty, for a naval vacation"
meets with the secretary's hearty
commendation in view Of the tremend-
Gus increase in American naval ex-
penditures. Pointing out that ten
years ago the largest battleship cost
$5,3S2,000, while the next dreadnaught
will cost $14,044000, Mr.. Daniels asks
when is this accelerating expenditure
to be reduced? He adds that it is mot
a vacation that we need but per-
manent policy to guard against ex-
travagant expansionates." Time, he
suggests, should be given to ship
builders to guard against loss from

mes. The report recommends that the
