 TURF TWO SUSPECTS
(From Thursdays Daily.l

Believing that they have the goods" on their prisoners, the coun' ty officials have decided to relieve the Bakersfield, California, police of the trouble of prosecuting Ed Wilson and Barney Cook, who arc wanted there for the theft of a Ford roadster, and in this county for the alleged stealing of tires and other auto accessories from the Brown garage ill Ash Fork The two men will be arraigned and later given a preliminary hearing in the focal court upon the last named charge.
 An interesting phase of the case yesterday came to light at the sher- iff's office. En route to the scene Of the Seligman murder last Friday right Sheriff Keeler noticed the two men whiz by in a Ford roadster which bore a California sign The following night. the sheriff heard of the theft Of the tires and other ac- oessories at Ash Fork. Deputy Sheriff Bartlett, of Ash Fork, had also seen the little machine in that place.
 Bartlett had "nunch" and it was as good as a thousand dollars A telegram was sent to Holbrook yhcre the two travellers were headed off in their machine and arrested. Before they were brought back Bartlett murmured, "bet that ma chine was stolen"
 Another "hunch' and telegram was sent to Bakersfield. Shortly afterward an answer was received telling of the disappearance of the Ford roadster and stating that S25 reward was offered for its re- turn.
 The telegram also stated that if the local officials were going to press felony charge against the two men, the Bakersfield officials would not bother with extradition. The Ford is being returned to its owners in Bakersfield.

SCHOOLS SAIL ALONG
 VERY SMOOTHLY
(From Thursdays Daily.)

(from thursdays Dally.)
 The approach of the end of the first week of school finds condi- tions in the local institution ex- ceptionally good. considering the numerous handicaps under which the high school department is fore ed to "conduct business" by virtue Of improvised quarters pending the erection Of the new building. The Manual Arts department is again in full sway. occupying the old quar- ters in the basement of the Wash ington school building, while the high school is occupying its new quarters temporarily. Professor Boss is again in charge of the man ual arts department.
 Contractors Branncn and Sauer are rushing work upon the new high school building with view of completing it by January.
 A special feature in connection with the high school curriculum is the special classes provided for students who are not otherwise at tached to the high school. A mum Der Of outsiders have entered diff ferent classes, particularly in the commercial department. This fca- ture will be cultivated upon more elaborate scale when the new struc- turc with its ample room is avail able.
 Students of the high school must purchase their own books. Tn the elementary and primary grades however, the state loans educational outfits. The high school instruct ors have co-operated with the Bash ford Burmister company in the pur- chase and sale of the books.

POVERTY SHOWS
 LARGE ORE BODIES
iFrom Fridays Daily.)

Mark Bradley, superintendent of the Poverty mine on Slate creek. while in the city yesterday stated that shipping at the rate of about nifty tons per month to the Hayden Smcltcrs goes ahead. and that this plan will be followed for some time to come to meet current ex- penses only. The loss in silver and copper Is quite heavy, when pres ent prices are taken into considera- tion. The principal value of this ore, however, Is gold. and to carry out a line of extensive exploration is the motive of the owners. With normal prices a very large tonnage would be shipped. and the dump shows the producing ability of the property to have been good since development was resumed a short time ago. Sinking and drifting from the 200-foot level is going on. and underground conditions were never so attractive as new ground is pen etrated and larged ore bodies are shown.

PIONEER WOMEN ALSO
 TO HAVE A HOME
(From Thursdays Daily.)


 Final action has been taken by the State Board of Control, and the Women's Annex to the Pioneers Home in this city, is to become a reality at last. In other words, the recommendation made several months ago by Wynn Meredith that the Parsons bequest of S40,OOO to the Pioneers Home be applied to this specific purpose. has been ap- proved. and the work will go ahead without any further delay. Mir. Meredith is the administrator of the estate of W. C. Parsons, deceased. and it was his idea that the hand some donation be allotted to the de- serving pioneer women of the state, in view of the fact that the male pioneers had been cared for and the statute made no provision whatever for the women pioneers. MT. Mere dith has appointed Major A. J. De- ran, Judge E. w. Wells and Dr. K. \. Looney, of Prescott, as com missioners to supervise the work on this adjunct to the home, although the state will have the disposition of the above sum. w. s. Elliott. the architect, has drawn plans and specifications of the new building, and with the exception of slight notifications in interior accommo- datlonS, they have been approved by the Board of Control. Bids for will soon be announced. and it is believed the contract will be awarded within the next sixty days.
 The new home will not only be imposing, but it will have a strik- ingly beautiful effect. Facing near the center on the dividing line will be a large tower, which, with the general outlines of the structure. will carry the Colonial feature of design. To the south of the pres ent building will be added wing, but otherwise the original habita- ton will remain as at present. The annex will join on the north, and in its subdivision of quarters will have about sixteen sleeping rooms, a li- 'rary, parlor, dining room, observ- ltory, bath rooms, informatory and other accommodations. The com )ined homes will have a frontage of over 100 feet, and will be nearly sixty feet in depth The approxi- nate cost is about $25,OOO. Mar jed pioneers will be eligible for admission.

September, 1914, is proving one of the busiest months in the his tory of the office of the county board Of supervisors.

FRICTION ARISES OVER
 LANDS ON WEST SIDE
(From Wednesdays Daily)


 At a special meeting of the City Council yesterday afternoon to ac- cept the new plat of the Murphy additions to Prescott, opposition developed among the residents and owners Of land who are affected by the surveys. Beach Place and Gurley avenue, at point known as the wedge, that intersects the lat ter, are to be affected. MT. Murphy asked that the new may spercede the old one, which request developed a lively and yet a good natured dis cussion of the issue between those more heavily interested in the wedge strip. If the wedge of the new survey is accepted, the acute angle along its outline boundary, a dis tance of several lots, will be chop ped down approximately twelve feet. If, on the other hand, the original surveys prevail, the curve on that thoroughfare will remain as origin ally outlined and the lands will be undisturbed. The delicate question was taken under advisement by the mayor and council for final action at a meeting to be held in thirty days from yesterday.
