Mohave County miner., 1914-12-19

Mrs. G. R. Franklin has gone to San
 Francisco, where she will visit with her parents during the Christmas holidays.
 Mrs. Bernice Barnes, of Goodsprings,
 Nevada, is visiting with her parents,
 MT. and Mrs, l. D. Hilty, in Kingman. The family of Rev. Thomas Dodd
 came in from the east this week and will make their home in the M. k. parsonage.
 E. J. Mitchell, of the law firm of Norris and Mitchell, of Prescott, was in Kingman Tuesday and Wednesday last on legal business.
 Holiday rates will go into effect on the Santa Fe tomorrow and all tickets will be good for the return trip until January 4. The fare is one and one third for all round trips in the State. Lew Page, formerly a resident of Kingman, where he lived with his wife sope eight or ten years ago, was we'd ded to Miss Agnes Moberley, of Bos- ton, Mass, last Monday night. Mir. Page is in business at Wagner, Cali fornia.
 Louis Dixon, who is managing the properties at Cerbat for the Anozira Mining company, was in Kingman yes- terday. This corporation is selling stock in Denver, with which they claim
 they are to keep up development and build mill.
 J. S. Withers is getting things in shape to remove his family from King man to Oatman, where he has prepared
 handsome home for them. The people Withers family from among us, but
 wish them good luck and happiness in
 their new home. w. E. Moroney went to Phoenix last Sunday to appear in the matter of the estate of the late Jonathan Logan against Kean St. Charles and others, Tby case is on appeal from the Superior
 Court of this county. MT. Moroney is
 one of the brightest young lawers now
 practicing at the Mohave county bar, John c. Hoffman, manager of the
 Arizona Southwestern Copper company,
 came in from the mine few days ago.
 We understand that the mine is soon to
 be operated on a large scale and the
 shaft sunk from the 200 level to 5O0r
 Machinery capable of doing the work is
 now on the mine and all that is neces-
 sary to start things is to put the pumps
 in motion. We believe the property
 would pay well if the shaft was sunk to
 a point below the change and the ore
 bodies opened.
 All the Kingman merchants have
 their windows handsomely decorated
 for. the holiday trade. Some of the
 windows are very handsome, that of
 the Arizona Stores company, the Wat
 kins Drugstore and Elliotts being es-
 pecially attractive. These stores
 handle a splendid line of holiday goods and orders sent in from the country will be sure to receive prompt attention
 Johnson's jewerly store has some at
 tractive presents on exhibition.
 A man by the name of Callaghan
 was brought in from Goldroad last
 Monday by deputy sheriff George B. Ayers, and lodged in the county jail on
 charge of attempting to outrage little girl. Callaghan is said to have
 been quiet, well behaved fellow, and the only charitable thing that may be said for his act is that he was insane. No man could be so degraded or de- generate as to try to defle a child of ten wears unless he was mentally un-
 balanced. Nevertheless the law must protect the home from these monsters. We hope the people of Mohave county will get together and start things for
 the erection of high school that will be adequate for the education of all the children. A bond issue would have to
 be provided for and if this action is
 taken it would be wise to make the
 ;ec,o lorra apOuub to UiVe the school
