The baseball magnates in the old
circuit Of the Kansas State league are
already casting about for the towns
for the circuit in 1915. Hutchinson.
the largest town in the league, is a
little dissatisfied with the league and
is hoping for something better to be
sprung in baseball before the winter
is over that it may be able to asso-
ciate with teams of higher class
than were found in the State league
last year.
However, if nothing better is Of
fered Hutchinson will be willing to
come into an eight-team league. The
towns now being talked of for such a
league are Hutchinson, Newton. En-
poria, Salina, Lawrence. Ottawa,
Leavenworth and Atchison. Such a
circuit would make a north and south
division creating more interest, it is
said, than ordinarily.
Eddie Plank, one of Connie Mack S
have been asked will probably sign a

A report from Philadelphia stated
that Plank had been talking business

general impression that the Chicago
moguls had made him the best offer.
1t was the fact that Plank attended
the Federal league meeting in New
York that resulted in waivers being
asked on him by Manager Mack of
the Athletics. AS soon as Mack
learned that Plank had approached
the Federal Toguls he decided he did
not want Plank, Bender or Coombs,

The Mohave County
Union High School.

i The people of Mohave County, recog-
! nizing long felt need recently voted
. to establish a high school where its
boys and girls might, without leaving
! home, receive that education which is
due every boy and girl in the county.
Our boys and girls will enter upon their
life work at time when an education
beyond that of the grade school is
practical necessity.
The Board of Trustees in whose hands
the power of establishing and maintain
ing this school is vested, is placing at
your disposal, school where it is pos
sible for each and every boy and girl in
the county to secure high school edu-
cation that is practical, cultural and
disable.
This school in it's course of study has
met the entrance requirements of the
State University at Tucson, Arizona,
which means that its graduates will be
given full credit for their high school
work at that institution and will be
given first year standing without ques-
ton. We are making application for
and expect within short time to Sc
cure the same recognition from the
California universities.
The school offers four year course
of study, requiring sixteen credits for
graduation. A credit consists of a
years work in any one subject. Eng
lish will be taught throughout all four
years of the course. Arithmetic,
Algebra and Plane Geometry will be
required for graduation. Solid Geometry
will be taught if desired but it is not
required. Ancient, English and Ameri-
can History will be taught in the order
named. Civil Government will be cor
related with American History in the
fourth year. Photography in the first
year, Chemistry in the third and
Physics in the fourth make up the
course in science. We have we'll equip
ped laboratories for Chemistry and
Physics. The course in foreign Ian
guages consists of Latin and Spanish.
The student may choose either of
these. We advise their taking two
years of each.
A practical working library will be
at the disposal of the students. They
will have the use of typewr ter in
their work The above is lesume
and does not go into the details of the
work offered.
We offer in this your home school,
course of study equal to that of any
first grade high school. We do not Of.
fer the variety of courses the large

yet. We do offer course of study
CONSTANT with our equipment and with
the expected enrolment of the school.
The degree of success of this Mohave
County High School depends to a very
great extent upon its patrons in the
county. The voters thought the boys
and girls needed the school. We know
the school needs them. We are
mutually dependent upon each other.
If we can offer the equivalent to what
your boy or girl is receiving elsewhere,
we are entitled to the enrolment in
our school. 1t begins Sept. 18th.

C. D. Atlee and wife were on the
Big Sandy this week and invested in a
ranch near the old Carrow place. Mr..
Atlee believes the Sandy country will
be one of the best sections of the county,
and that with the building of a railroad
down the east side of the Wallapais the
mines and farms will become great
producers. All kinds of fruit and
vegetables are raised and in quantity
sufficient to make shipment to market
in car lots. Thousands of tons of hay
and grain are also raised, and cattle
and hogs are fed and fattened on these
farms. Along the east side of the
mountain are many mines that could
produce thousands of tons of profitable
ore that at the present time are idle.
A railroad is necessity to make the
Sandy one of the most prosperous sec
lions of the state.

The 500 level of the Copper Giant

big concentrating plant at the property
as soon as possible, the oil flotation
he ng under consideration. This plant
will handle 100 tons daily, which will
furnish a splendid product to the smell

Robert Petty is getting his camp at
the mines, south of Little Meadows,
in shape to begin the work of shaft sink
ing. The mines were discovered about
six months ago and since that time
quite little work has been done on
them. The showing of gold in the sur
face rock is excellent and should the
mines prove up at depth as the surface
would ind cate it will be one of tie
best properties in the county. The ore
is in porphyritic vein, the gold being
carried in iron carbonate.

Mr.. and Mrs. Telly Bland are visiting

Mohave County miner., 1914-08-29

The Gold Road and Tom Reed sec
tons of the county are receiving a
great deal of att n ion from min NO in
vestors in quest of gold property. The
Blue Ridge range is one of the best
mineralized parts of the county from a
gold bearing standpoint and it will be
but matter of a year or two when it
will be one of the most noted gold pro-
ducing districts of the world. The
veins there are all large and carry con-
sistent values in gold and some silver.
The ores are ideal for cyaniding, there
being no free aSid in the contained min
erals. With greater use of power and
its transmission to all parts of the field
this one big item of expense will be
greatly reduced and the working of
lower grade ores made possible.

n. M. Stene is IN Los Angeles, where
he is promoting the building of a smell
ter in the vicinity of the McCracken
mine. AS many of our readers know
the McCracken mine is one of the lar
gest low grade lead properties in the
state resembling in many particular
characteristics the Bunker Hill aud
Sullivan mines in Wardner, Idaho, carry
ing silver and lead. The vein is an
immense one, and the whole country is
also well mineralized with the same
class of ore. With a smelter at or near
McCracken that country would be able
to contribute large tonnage Of ore. Mr.
Stene has been over the country and
has made a thorough examination and
study of the ores and fiuxing materials
and can Tut the matter up to capital
sts in convincing way.
Prospectors are getting into the Wal
lapai mountains and 1t will be but a
short time until reports of startlingly
rich finds come in. Just why the Wal
lapai mountains have been overlooked
by prospectors we have never been able
to learn, for that region is one of the
best niEeraEzed in the state. 1t re-
minds one very much of the country in
and around Cahanea, Mexico, the
mountains being high and precipitous
aud the canyons deep and covered by
alluvium and chapparal. A great many
of the veins outcrop boldly along the
high ridges, but it is the undiscovered
veins that are sure to bring results.
Years ago rich float was found in many
places along the mountain side, and at
one place some of the richest gold ore
was taken out, although the vein
whence it came was not found. At the
old Hope mine (Hibernia) silver run
ming 5000 ounces to the ton was shipped
to the mills. Other places also shipped
fabulously rich ore from large chunks
of float rock, the rich veins never hav-
ing been found. Some of the big bikes
show small stringers running with
them that carry good values in both
gold and silver. At the present time
ore will have to run above zoos to pay
the miner anything for his labor, but a
time will come in the near future when
ore can be marketed as cheaply as from
any of the other districts.
