Mohave County miner. [volume] (Mineral Park, A.T. [Ariz.]) 1882-1918, 1914-09-26

appear later as to date OF his return.
Owing to the death of his mother
Samuel Fuehrer was called to the old
home in Ohio last week.
County Attorney C. w. Herndon has
gone to Prescott, where he will visit
for few days with his mother.
A report comes from Oatman that
Stephen Henkle, one of the Oldest
miners of this section, was caved on
in the Tom Reed mine and so severely
crushed that his life is despared of.
His back is said to have been broken
and his body crushed and terribly
bruised. Mr.. Henkle came to this
county in the early seventies and ex-
cept for short time during the Tomb
stone excitement has been a resident
of the county. He is one of the best
known miners of the state and has a
host of friends in all the mining camps.
The skeleton of man was found
Thursday last in the river bottom, op-
posite Needles, by Charles Sutherland.
Nothing was reported to have been
found that would identify the remains.
At the time that the body of a Spaniard
was found in the slough below the
Sutherland-Lunceford ranch, six weeks
ago, it was reported that another man
accomp panied the unfortunate fellow to
the river from Oatman, but 10 trace of
aim was found. 1t is probable that in
attempting to save the life of one the
other was also drowned. We have for
gotten the name of the companion to
tie man whose body WAS recovered.
but he has friends in Flagstaff.
Ray P. Wheelock, County Engineer,
was down to the Topo(k bridge yester-
day and reports that the approach to
the bridge from the Needles side is al
most completed. Arrangements Were
made to have the railroad company
complete the approach from the Ari-
;zona side, as the work is entirely on the
railroad rightOf way and the company
can do it to better advantage and much
cheaper than can the State or county.
Within the next two weeks the bridge
will be equipped with safety devices
;and properly planked to allow Of the
passage of cars. The work is going on
rapidly and vehicles will soon be cared
for by the cailroad company.
"A big roar has gone up from the NJ
Il M Association of Phoenix over the
routing of the road race through north
ern Arizona, and an effort is being
made to run a rival race over the San
Diego route through Mammoth wash.
We can see no reason why Phoenix
should have grievance against the
nrth and it is to be hoped that this feel
ing of antagonism against the Old
Tca1s Road will be minimized by the
rare good sense of the people of the
capital city The people of Phoenix
must understand that the State of Ari-
zoua has supplied the funds year after
year Cor this fair and that the north is
paying more of this expense than does
Yuma county, the only county aside
from Maricopa that is benefited by a
road race. On the other hand MOhave,
Yavapai and Maricopa counties receive
oaly advertising benefit from the race,
and the drivers of racing cars get bet
ter results from the longer race, as
mary of the towns are putting up addi-
tional purses for the best time between
checking stations. Arizona counties
should get together instead of fighting
each other for the general benefit of
the whole state.
