On Tuesday morning in this city, the January criminal term of the su- perior court will come in here with Judge Milton A. Shumway on the bench. On Friday State Attorney Hadlai A. Hull was here in consulta- ton with the attorneys for prisoners whose cases will come up at this term and the assignments were made in most of the 30 odd cases on the dock ct. In the coming term there is an unusual number of eases of an un- savory character. A considerable pro- portion of these come from the neigh borhood of Stonzngton and Mystic in consequence of the alleged scandalous conditions unearthed there recently.
 Of the cases assigned for the open ing day there are those of the state vs. Alfred Baker, Richard B. Chute, Stephen Duke. Nathan H. Newberry and Amos R.

 At the short calendar session of the superior court here on Friday two of the three cases on the uncontested di- vorce list were disposed of by grant, ing divorces, the husbands being the applicants in both cases.

Beckwith the mother of the petitioner, were wit nesses for him, and the decree was granted.
 Julius Sultan of CoIch ester also se- cured a divorce from his wife, Nellie Sultan, now of New York. The grounds were desertion. They were married in 1886, but three years ago the wife took all the furniture and her two daughters and moved to New York where she has lived since. She is a nurse One daughter teaches school and the other Is married. The married daughter testified that her mother got dissatisfied and just left her husband

FIFTEEN ATTEND FIRST
 TEACHER TRAINING CLASS.
Taught by Charles A. Boyd of Hart
 ferd-Two Glasses to be Held.

In spite of the stormy weather Fri day evening there was an attendance of fifteen teachers, representing eight churches at the first meeting of the teacher training class conducted un- der the auspices of the Bible Study committee of the Church federation and the New London County Sunday School association. There are to be two classes each Friday evening" the first at 7.30, and the second at S-15, three-fourths of an hour to each One class is devoted to study of the Bible and the other to child study.
 In opening the session the Instructor Charles A. Boyd Of Hartford spoke of the purpose of the Sunday school and of how it tended towards the upbuild- ing of character. He also spoke of it's Christian fellowship.
 In the Bible study class MT. Boyn spoke of the Bible as a literary work, it's significance as the most popular and most powerful book in the world, and it's purpose. The Bible he said is the record of Gods progressive self-revel- ation." The concern of the author of the bible was not historical but rather to use historical facts to establish re- 1igious truths. MT Boyd spoke briefly on the divisions of the Bible and went through an outline of the book of Genesis.
 Those in charge of the class ex- pressed themselves as well pleased WlIQ al46 dIlGIQd4CS uHQer lQ0 COHQl- tions and it was said that a class of 50 was expected by the time the work is well under way Although it is not necessary for a teacher to take both of the courses offered 1t is probable that practically all will do so. A sim liar class was recently started at Stafford Springs, and now has a mem bershfp of 50. A teacher training class is in progress of organization at New London and James l..

ARIZONA MINES

Final advance figures compiled by
V. G. Heikes, of the United States
Geological Survey, show notable
increase in production of precious
and semiprecious metals, especially
of copper, in Arizona in 1912. The
total value of gold, silver, copper,
lead and zinc increased from $44,-
l57 ,223 in 1911 to $67 ,050, ,784 in 1912.
The production of gold was So, ,762,-

3,276,57l fine ounces, valued at
81, 736,582, to 3,490,3S ounces, val
ued at 81, l46,5S8. The greater part
of the gold production was derived
from siliceous ores treated at gold
mills, and large part of the re-
mainder came from copper ores.
Mohave county alone supplied

RANGES CAN COME BACK

The improved condition of the
national forest range after regulated
grazing is pointed to by experts of
the department of agriculture as a
demonstration that areas which have
been severely damaged through
overstocking by sheep and cattle
can be, brought back to their former
carrying power through a system of
sufficiently intelligent use.
When the government took charge
of the livestock ranges within the
national forests some of them were
SO badly overgrazed and otherwise
injured from reckless handling of
the stock that their grazing value
appeared to have been almost en-
tirely destroyed. Many of these
ranges, however, have been restored
and made as valuable as ever. On
several of the forests results have
more than justified the expectations

KELLY TELLS OF ARIZONA

What was once a vast barren
waste of land in the Gila, Salt River
and Sulphur Springs valleys, Ari-
zona, has been turned into ideal
farming lands by the harnessing of
streams for irrigation purposes"
said George H. Kelly, editor of the
Bisbee Review and the Douglas In
ternational to an Ell Paso Times re-
porter in discussing the rapid strides
Arizona is making. Continuing, Mr..
Kelly said: Land that ten years
ago was not worth living on and
could be purchased for practically
anything is today among the most
valuable farming land in the coun-
try and is selling for many hundred
dollars an acre.
During the last ten years $50, 900
or more acres of barren land have
been irrigated in Arizona. In the
last five years there has been more
than 500 homesteaders settle in the
Sulphur Springs valley between
Wilcox and Douglas. This land
has been irrigated by the drilling of
wells and the harnessing of streams
and is valuable for farming and
grazing. The Roosevelt dam alone
irrigates 10000 acres of land but
portion of this has been irrigated
for some time. Property in the
Gila valley is not for sale since irri,
cation has made it ideal for farming.
The farmers of this country get
three and four crops of alfalfa off
their land each year and prices are
very high with ready market.
AT Douglas the Calumet and
Arizona company has just completed
new sInelter at cost aggregating
So, 100000. The Arizona Copper
company is building S2,000,0 900
smelter to De completed this fall
while the Inspiration company at
Miami is spending $1,000, 900 on its
system, erecting mill and other
improvements. The United Verde
at jerome is spending $500, 900 on
a new smelter seven miles from the
site of the present plant. Improve
ment work of all kinds is going on
in the mining camps of the state
The state of Arizona now has an
of $3.50, 900, 600 compared
to valuation of $l45,000, 900 last
year. Cochise county alone has an
valuation of 500, ,000,-
Graham guardian., 1913-07-11

600. The tax rate in this county
last year was $2.15 and this year
will not exceed $100.
Yes, Arizona is taking an active
interest in improving her highways.
Yuma county will this week vote on
good roads bond issue of $500, 600
and it will pass. This will enable
this county to build highway from
the Maricopa line to the California
border, As soon as the constitution
of the state can be amended Ari-
zona will issue $5,000.000 in bonds
for good roads. This will make the
Arizona highways as good as these

is fact which is not usually i'm

that fact the children should also
be impressed with the coordinate

and the range is in better condition

and the range is in better condition
than it ever was.
An example of this improvement
is cited in the Nebo national forest,
Utah. In 1908, when that forest
was created, the ranges within the
forest boundaries were found to be
badly overgrazed and trampled be-
cause there was a lack of any con-
troll or supervision over the areas.
One of the areas was at that time
estimated to be capable of carrying
only 5000 head of cattle. Now,
through conservative management
and judicious distribution of the
cattle over the ranges, and improv-
ments in water conditions. the carry
ing capacity of the range has been
increased until, in the present graz
ing season, nearly 5000 head of
cattle are using this particular area,
and forest officers feel that few
hundred head more can be safely
grazed there without injury.

WEEDIN AND BIRDNO FOR

The Tombstone Prospector says,
editorially:
1t is with no small degree of
pleasure that the Prospector is able
to announce that Colonel Tom
Weedin, of the Florence Tribune,
and John j, Birdno, of The GRAHAM
GUARDIAN, are to receive the APP
pointments, respectively. for regis
ter and receiver of the United States
land office at Phoenix. This paper
takes the appointments as compli-
ment, since it was through these
columns that the boom for these
two old democratic wheelhorses was
initiated. The selection of these
two men is but scant recognition
for what they have accomplished
for democracy, having consistently
and unswervingly, without fear or
hope of reward, fought under the
banner that makes of Arizona a
picturesque and inviting place where
a stable government gives assurance
of free speech, untrammeled courts
and the pursuit of happiness. Both
Weedin and Birdno have done much
for the upbuilding of Arizona, and
the State at large will heartily en-
dorse President Wilson's appoint
ment of the two veteran newspaper
