MINER DIES
FROM HEAT
SWANSEA PRosPECToR is OVER
COME WHILE WALKING FROM
LOCAL CEMETERY.

Fl. M. Stephens, a prospector and
mine operator who has an interest In
mining claims near Swansea, died at
Parker early Monday morning as a
result of heat prostration. He had
walked to Parker from Bouse on the
previous afternoon and had been
overcome near the stock yards where
the trainmen on the westbound
freight had found him tbout o'clock.
The miner was picked up in an un-
conscious condition and never recOv-
cred consciousness. Dr. Israel was
summoned from the agency and she
worked with the dying man several
hours. but without hope. He died al
o'clock Monday morning at the
home of A, l.. Preston where he had
been taken
Stephens was 43 years Of age and
acquainted at both here and Bouse
and Swansea but nothing was known
of his early life or relatives He was
interested in the Big Kimball group
of mines near Swansea and had been
experimenting development work
there for several months.
Parties living in Goldfield and San
Francisco who were also interested
in the mines were teIegraphed by
Undertaken Jno. F. Collins who took
charge of the remains. They knew
little of the man, however 1t was
reported that he had brother, Al r,
Stephens, at Silver City, Idaho. but
telegram to this place disproved
the report
The burial took. place Wednesday
afternoon at the expense OF the
county, the stricken miner apparently
having no funds of his own.

IMPERIAL WATER ENDANGERED

Ell CENTRIC, Aug. 2S.-Seventy
Constitutionalists, part of a detach-
ment of 200 who arrived from Sonora
early today, attacked the federal
guard at Sharp's Heading, the big
intake which lets the water from the
Colorado river flow into the canal
system that irrigStes the Imperial
Halley of California. One federal was
killed and another captured. Mur.
apprehension for the safety Of the ir-
rigation system was felt by the LAM
owners.
Two hundred federal troops, com
prising the garrison of Mexicali, We're
held in readiness to repel the attack
The people of Mexicali removed their
valuables to the American side. Res
idents OF CalexicO, Cal, have sent
an urgent request for troops to Wash
intOn.
Leaders of the COnstitutionalists
band told a newspaper correspondent
join other and stronger groups The
invaders were prOvisiOned with sup
plies bought at CalexicO All were
Well mounted.
Governor Gomez, III personal com
mand at Mexicali, said he had no
fear of attack It was learned that
he had ordered 300 troops to- hasten
north from Ensenada. BreastWOrks
have been thrown up at most neces-
sary points for protection.

HORSES
IS CHARGE

BLYTHE. Cal, August 27-F'red
Myers and Leo Mckinney. two
young men who claim to have
come from near Rodeo, New Mexico,
were arrestd here last Thursday on
a charge of having stolen four head
of horses firm a rancher named Cox,
near Aqua Caliente. in Maricopa
county, Arizona.
The horses We're stolen on last
Monday and Cox followed the fugi
tiyes as far as Vicksburg, in Yuma
county, on a motorcycle, at Vicksburg
he secured the service of an autOmO
bile and followed them to Ehrenberg.
On arriving at Ehrenberg "Wednesday
night, Cox learned the fugitiyes -ha,
crossed the Colorado river at the
Blythe Ehrenburg ferry. Crossing
oyer to the California side, Cox cam;
to Blythe and secured the services
of the officers here.
Thursday morning Deputies Shee
han and Gardner. in company
with Constable Sortillen, took up
the trail at the ferry and follow
ed it up the river to near the canal
intake, where they located their game
at the Massey camp.
The arrest was made without diff
| ficulty and the supposed horse thiev
es were brought to Blythe and lodged
in Jail.
The stolen horses were all recover
ed and turned over TO Cox by the of
ficers. The two boys were taken be
| fore Justice Walsh who ordered them
held here in jail to await advices
from the Arizona officers. They sta
ted that they would return to Arizona
without requisition papers.
The two accused are but mere
boys, not over twenty years of age.
and appear to be somewhat of the
dime novel type. They said they
had started for California and merely
got tired Of walking They do Ii
seem to realize the position they
in.

LESS COTTON THIS YEAR.

NEW ORLEANS, La, Aug. 25.-
While the range of predictions as to
this years cotton crop is from tWel-
We to sixteen million bales the pre-
100000 bales crop is accepted proof
that the crop will be about that quan-
ty unless a decided Improvement o.
deterioration should set in. If l3,
O00, ,O0Oba crop is made there will
be no complaining in the south.
While this will be a million and
half bales under the crop last year
and three million bales under
the crop OF 1911. still it is regarded
as an abundant yield. With the al
most unprecedented occurrence OF
having three big crops in success
tn are brighter than ever before, E.
en- the prosperous years preceding the
civil war are not excepted
The prospects in Louisiana al,
overshadOwed somewhat by the
threatened ruin of the sugar industry
Had other crops yielded poorly this
year widespread damage would have
resulted. but as cotton, rice and corn
have done SO we'll the absence OF
most of the revenue usually coming
from the cane crop is exerting d
general influence.

PARKER VOTES
FOR SALOONS
TWO TO ONE MAJORITY FAVORS
LICENSING OF LIQUOR TRAF-
FIG HERE-ELECTiON DAY FUR
NisHES NO EXCITEMENT.

BY a vote of 35 to 16, Parker pre-
cinct decided in favor OF saloons at
the local option election held last Sat
urday. After. having been dry" for
a period of three years liquOr-selling
will again become a licensed bust
ness in the town.
Local business men have already
expressed their intention of securing
licenses and it is likely that bars
will be opened quickly as the board
of supervisors can make the neces-
sary provisions for issuing licenses.
Complying with the Jaw, the super
visOrs must meet on September Bird
eleven days after the election, ant
pass upon the election returns. After
that the issuing of permits to engage
in the liquor business here is simply
a matter of form.
Practically every voter in town was
at the polls last Saturday, the voting
population being reduced fully fifty
= by the absence of summer vacation
lists. The "drys" held out little hope
of winning in the election and regis
tered their votes merely as a protest
rather than because they expected
to gain anything by doing SO.
1t was one OF the quietest election
days Parker has ever seen. AS ont
citizen expressed it, there was no
even a cigar or soft drink of cid
er in circulation"
The only excitement of the election
was apparent at about o'clock III
the afternoon when the election Off
cials discovered there were only 4S
votes cast-this number lacking jus
one of being enough to give them al
extra dollar apiece TO their day
work. The supervisors had provide.
that the officials should receives s.
apiece if there was under so votes
cast, and S. if the number was owe.
SO.
When Bob Martin made this
startling discovery there was a hasty
search made for another vote, searcl
in parties were sent out into the high
ways and by-ways and just before tn,
clock indicated closing time someone
ferreted out a couple of dilatOry citi
zens and persuaded them that Par
kers future depended on their vote
or something like that

TiON COMMITTEE.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Aug. 26,-
Marcus A Smith, senator from Ari-
Ona, has been appointed chairman OF
the committee on reclamation and ir-
rigated lands following the resigna
tiOn OF H. l.. Myers.
This promotion of Senator Smith
to chairman of the irrigation and re-
clamatiOn of the arid land is of vast
importance to Arizona as
will be in a position to very material
ly aid the numerous irrigation and
reclamation projects now dragging a
long in the. state 1t will also place
him in closer touch with the secre-
tary of interior who has control Of
all those projects throughout the Uni
ted States.
That Marcus Smith will now be
able to render his state and the EN-
tire west reat service there is no
doubt. All of his friends in Arizona
are pleased tC sec him placed at the
head of this important committee
which deals with the most important
question in the west. The Yuma pro
ject, Roosevelt project and all thir-
ty projects of the west comes under
the work of this committee. This ap
pointment will no doubt assist mater
tally N securing completion of the
Yuma project this winter

INTERESTED IN GRAY MINES.

A party of eastern capitalists are
at Blythe Junction looking over the
Gray mines in the africa mountains
near that place with view OF tax
ing them over for operating purposes
The mine is atpresent under lease
and bound to J A. Priest who has
done large amount of improv-
ments on the property. Mr.. Priest
has a twenty-five ton stamp mill at
the depot at the Junction which he
intends to put in operation on the
property at an early date. The Gray
mine is one of the Oldest and best
known gold properties in east River
side county, having been profitably
worked over thirty years ago. The
ores are rich in gold but a lack OF
water has retarded developments
work to agreat extent. There has
already been several hundred feet OF
ty, among other improvements are a
fOurhundred foot shaft and good sub
stantial buildings at the mine. The
first gold stamp mill ever built wa!
in east Riverside county wash for
treating the ores of the Gray mine.
The mill was located out in the des
ert. five miles from Blythe June
ton. and was used for several years,

ADVE RTISING

Advertising is a recipe for plant
ing one dollar at the top of the col
um next to pure reading and having
two dollars handed back in change. II
is the only form of notriety paying
a dividend which doesn't have to BE-
explained to the wife of the adver-
tiser There are two kinds OF adver-
ing continuous and jump spark
The continuous advertiser is one who
never has to carry the 1913 models Of
spring suits into the 1914 clearance
sales and unload them at the price
OF the buttons and lining. The onl!
objection to this form of advertising
is that it makes it necessary to hirs
more clerks and engage more floor
space The jump spark advertiser is
one who jumps in at Easter and
ChriStmas time alt. makes a drag
which lasts him all the rest of the
year. This has a tendency to keel
down the pay roll and prevent any
tody on the aforesaid pay roll over
working. If more people would al
vertise by fits and starts, there
would be more newspapers Offered
in even exchange for an equity in 9
second hand graphaphone. Advertis
ing in both morning and evening
editions is the best tonic for a bus
ness that is suffering from genera
debility of the cash book Nothing
will put new life and hope into tbs
days receipts quicker than a half
page advertisement crowded full ol
real bargins and 24-pOint figures. Ad
vertising that is not timely and tru
thful is about as effective as a sac
rifice bunt with three men on bases
The merchant who thinks he car
slip over panmere skirt made prior
to the Ashtabula disaster by mark
ing it down to S1.98 will keep it
stock until people wear fur coats
and fleece lined underwear in August
Circular advertising is an expensive
substitute for printers ink which
gets as far as the front porch and
then dies a natural death 1t is bet
ter than no advertising at all, how
ever, and may lead to a resolve t.
try the real article.

NO MORE TIME ON LOTS

J. w. Keener, a representative OF
the Interior Department from Wash
ington, was in Parker this week on
business relative to the final pay
ments due on the lots puchased here
at the government auction three years
ago.
Mr.. Keener stated that while most
of the property here had been paid
for several of those who bought real
estate at the auction had failed to
make part payments and these would
be required to do so at once. The
other alternative, it was stated
would be the cancellation of the con
tract which the government holds
with these parties.
The final extension granted by the
government ON the Parker property
expired nearly year ago but it was
understood at that time that no steps
toward foreclosure would be taken
for some time. The governments re-
preventative who was in town during
the week made it plain that the fina
limit had been reached.
