Sick Headache,

SICK headache is nearly always caused by disorders of the stomach. Correct them and the periodic attacks of sick headache will disappear. Mrs John Bishop of Roseville, Ohio, writes: About year ago l. was troubled with indigestion and had sick headache that lasted for two or three days at time. l doctored and tried number of reme- dies but nothing helped me until during one of those sick spells friend advised me to take Chamberlain Tablets. This medicine relieved me in a short time." For sale by all dealers.

The Drys Win.

At Los Angeles, Thursday last, the injunction suits of the vets against the prohibition law was dismissed and the court held the new amendment to the Arizona constitution valid and that it would become operative the first day of January. The case will go to the su- preme court of the United States, but there will be no stay allowed pending appeal. It is now probable that the matter will go into the State courts on another phase of the law and that it will be threshed out in the local courts while decision is awaited from the highest court of the land. This will probably come up under the recent ruling of the Supreme Court of the United States that liquor license is property and may be maintained in the same manner as other property.

Horse and Auto Collide.

An unusual and peculiar accident oc- cured last Saturday on the Big Sandy, in which an auto driven by Leonard Hoffman and horse ridden by an h. dian met in head on collision. MT. Hoffman was coming up the road above the Carrow ranch and as he was nosing out around bend in the road two h. dians hove in sight riding their horses at breakneck gait. One of the horses struck the front of the machine, stove in the radiator, and almost dimolished the front of the machine, and turned a summer sault onto the side of the road, where it fell dead. The Indian was thrown against the top of the machine, breaking the front bows and fell to the ground, practically uninjured.
 Had the horse struck the machine squarely it is probable that Mir. Hoff- man would have been killed, but the contact was at such an angle that the horse was thrown quartering across the auto, falling with such force that it was killed instantly. The Indian said that the animal was unbroken and that he could not control him. The horse was blooded animal and was thought to have considerable value.

Edward Swope's Death.

Saturday morning last Judge J. M.
 Francis, of Oatman, accompanied by
 Sheriff Harris and undertaken Van
 Marter, went to Sweeney, on the Colo
 rado river, where an inquest was held on the body of Ed. Swope, who either committed suicide or was murdered the day before. The testimony given by the woman, who was with Swope at the time of the shooting, swore on the stand that she had gone to bed Thurs day evening; that Swope was in the room and had undressed himself. She lay with her face to the wall on the bed
 She asked Swope to make her a cigar cite before going to bed. He sat on the edge of the bed and almost instant ly she heard the report of a gun and the light went out When she had re- lighted the lamp Swope was crumpled up against the side of the bed ap- parently dying. She called others and although left in the position he had fallen for several hours, he did not die until the following evening.
 As contradictory matter the Sheriff found that Swope had evidently begun the making of a cigarette, as the papers and tobacco was scattered on the floor where the woman said he was when the shot was fired. And again the unfortunate man was shot almost directly in the back If the head, the bullet fracturing the skull above the left temple and falling back into the skull cavity. It does not seem pos sible that man could have shot him self as indicated by the trend of the bullet through this mans brain. On the other hand it would have been in line with some one on the bed to have fired the fatal shot, and as he crumpled up he may have whirled around into the position in which he was found. Swope had been at Oatman that day and had carried .45 caliber gun with him, but had put it away when he returned. The gun with which the shooting was done was 32 caliber automatic.
 Swope is said to have been married and had one child, but where the wife and child are is not known. A father in Denver, a brother in New Mexico and sister in Colorado are left to this poor fellows sad fate. The body was brought to Kingman and is awaiting orders from relatives.

Two mining companies, over in the Senator range of Yavapai county, have entered into an arrangement by which a tunnel will be run about 5000 feet to tap the veins upon which they have been at work long time. The adit of the tunnel will be on the Big Pine vein and will open the vein practically the whole length of the purposed tunnel. When the total depth has been reached the companies will crosscut the other veins of the two groups and thereby open up a large territory heretofore un- explored. Water will be handled through the tunnel and all ore and waste will be dropped to a common level, where it can readily be handled. A mill will be built at the mouth of the tunnel and all the ores handled through it. The scheme promises big and it is to be hoped that the plans of the pro- jectors will be brought to a satisfactory conclusion.

H. E. Wood, one of the best known of the early day Cripple Creek mining men, passed through Kingman last Saturday on his way to Oatman, where he has large mining interests. MT. Wood has been developing his property the past three years and now has an excellent showing in one of the big veins of that rich camp. MT. Wood was at the head of the Woods Invest ment company, which corporation own ed the Gold Coin mine, at Cripple Creek, one of the greatest producers of rich ore in that wonderful gold camp. He is still at the head of the Gold Coin company and is getting revenue from the property. He believes that the Blue Ridge country will prove as rich and of greater permanency than the mines of Cripple Creek, and that long after the present generation has gone to their long rest the mines of that section will be turning out their treas ures of gold.
Mohave County miner., 1914-12-26

The striking of the immense body of fabulously rich ore in the Cresson vein, at Cripple Creek has given an impetus to mining that will be felt all over the mining country. Just when mining in Colorado was at low ebb this wonder ful strike was made and at once the whole mining country feels the thrill, and the resultant activity is bringing in more rich strikes. Another rich shoot has been found in nearby mine and wherever mining is being carried on the impetus given by these rich strikes will be felt. Arizona is sure to be benefited by the renewed confidence in mining and we believe that every where in the southwest new money will be put in to develop some of the promis- ing mines that have been operated in a dissultory way the past year or so. Gold and the metals that are usually found with it, brings riches that leave no taint, being the cleanest money that can come to man. Even dry advocate in Arizona would be willing to take the money that is produced from the Ari- zona mines.

In the eXportation of domestic zinc all previous records were broken for the past three months, the total value of the export running to 65, 504, STA pounds, valued at 4, 443, 381$ as com pared with l, 346, S87 pounds, valued at 80,756$ during the corresponding period of last year. During the past four years the average export of zinc has only been about twelve million pounds each year. When it is realized that we have exported more zinc during the months of September, October and No vember of this year than during the past five years the enormity of the shipments of this metal to Europe will be appreciated. Zinc is a metal that is facture of war material and as the war progresses the demand will grow to so great a volume that American mines will be unable to care for it.
 November exports of copper totaled about 50, 900, 900 pounds, and the vol ume is gradually increasing. It is pos sible that before many months the countries having open ports will be able to take as great an amount of the red metal as was exported before hostil- ties broke out.

Jack Cornelius and Vernon Hubbs came up from the Whale group of mines, in Copper Canyon, a few days ago to enjoy their Christmas dinner in the metropolis. MT. Cornelius has been directing the development of the mines for the Leviathan Mining com pany and has opened one of the finest bodies of ore in the state in the Whale vein. He is now getting things in shape to install hoisting plant on the shaft and will sink to depth of 200 feet right away. Drifts are to be car ried into the ore bodies from the bot tom of this shaft as soon as the proper depth has been reached.
