PREDICTS HEAVY INVEST
 MENTS IN MINING
(From Fridays DaHy.)

Attorney Paul Burks, of the Santa Fe law department at Los Angeles, who again is visiting this city, his former home, is quite optimistic over the future of the mining situation in this field, from an early investment standpoint
 He says the advance made ill re- cent months in many old properties resuming is accentuated by the gen cral inquiries reaching the railroad center in the above city, and busi- ness conditions affecting that system, likewise are a criterion by which ac- .ivity can be judged.
 He said, among other things: From Tn intimate acquaintance with the mining situation in Yavapai county in past years, the outlook in this day is decidedly healthier than at any time in two decades. The legitimate has supplanted the wildcat, and confidence -fs firmly established in capital cen .ers. Steady production is having a telling effect, and new properties ship ping is the key that is unlocking the wonderful mineral resources of this old and yet new field. The Little Daisy strike is as familiarly known in Los Angeles as in Jerome; and this big copper coming so uneXpect- edly into the splendid rating that is apparent, in itself is wedge that is driving capital here with confidence over future investments being remun- erative. In all, the coloring of the mineral sphere has a glow of health, and all that is required is to get the men with the money to do the rest. The mines are here, and they are coming to the front, one by one. Cap ital today is keenly apprcciative ot the possibilities of Yavapai mines, and the movement now on is the result of what has at last arrived-clean money for clean purpose.

COURSES ARRANGED IN
 TWO-WEEK PERIODS
(From Fridays Daily.)

TUCSON, Sept 9.-Among the many inquiries received relative to the short course for miners at the college of mines and engineering of the University of Arizona there seems to be some misunderstanding as to when a man may enter or leave a course.
 The sole idea of the course as given is to give an intensive study of one subject for two weeks; each two weeks course is an individual and separate course, although related to the one given previously and the one following, and each course may be taken separately. Hence a student may enter at the beginning of any one of the IS courses to be given and stay ?, 4, or any number of weeks.
 The courses are given in such a way that a student interested in pros pecting should take courses 1 to 5, inclusive, whereas one interested in underground work will find courses 8 to Il inclusive, the most adaptable; for the foreman or shift boss courses 8 to IA may be studied to advantage, and so on through the list, the courses being grouped so that man inter ested in any one subject may study that subject. and those relating to it if he so desires. But it should be distinctly understood that each course is unit by itself.
 Complete information on this work is given in pamphlet issued by the university, which may be had upon application.

FIFTY YEARS A
 HERMIT BECAUSE OF
 UNREOUITED LOVE

LONDON, Sept. 1O.-Thc life story of Frederick Burton, an aged resident of Bradford, which came out at the inquest over his body there the past week, is as follows:
 As young schoolmaster he fell in love with girl whose parents re- fused their consent to a marriage. Hcartbroken, Burton became her nit and lived in a cave for 50 years. During this time, he lived up to a VOW that he would never inhabit a house, sleep in bed or shave him self. Only on one occasion did he absent himself from his cave, and that was in order to find out what had become of his former love. He dis covered that the girl had married a man Of her fathers choosing, who mad squandered her fortune, kicked her to death and paid for his crime on the scaffold.
 One of the London papers com ments that if a fiction writer had used such d plot he would be ac- cused of gross eXaggeration and of being untrue to life.

 IS CALLED BY REAPER
(From Saturdays Dailyl

News of the death of Harmon Olm- stead, at Belmont, N. r., on July 30 has been received in Prescott, which will occasion expressions of regret from his many friends in this To- cality.
 The deceased made this city his home for over 30 days, and his up right citizenship, as well as his con scientious dealings with all, gave him exceptionally high consideration. MT. Olmstead was regarded also as man of unusual learning and his able ar ticles, published in the press of this city. attracted wide comment.
 He left Prescott about six years ago in declining health, to spend his re- maining days at home. For the past year he had been confined to his bed, and was attended during his illness by brother and sister, the survivors of family of nine children. He was aged 82 years. It was often said of the deceased, while he resided in this city, that he was one of the biggest and best men in Arizona.

DROUTH FALLS ON
 ..-a RANGES OF COCHISE

DOUGLAS, Sept. LA drouth unrelieved by anticipated heavy rains has fallen upon the ranges of Cochise county, and stockmen are laying plans, as 9 result, to either market their cattle or to ship the majority 70 pastures in other parts of the coun- try to fatten. This news has reached here from every part of the county, Is well as Sonora, although the east ern part of this county seems to be worst affected.
 The problem of the cattlemen now is as to where to ship to find good pasture. There is said to be plenty of range land in West Texas, but the drouth is just as bad there, if not worse than in this county. Some move will have to be made shortly, ;attlcmen agree although their stuff IS still in fairly good condition.
 The drouth in this county is ap- parent to people travelling through he country. In draws, where the 1sual rainy season brings high, juicy grass, on which the cattle feed and stay fat until the winter rains come, the growth is but two or three inches high and is rapidly drying up.
 The condition which Is working havoc to the hopes of the cattlemen IS also threatening to put the dry farmers out of business in many cases, and to fall heavily on all who have not some mode of irrigating their crops. Half mature grain is said to be drying up in the fields and no crop is doing well among the farmers depending upon rainfall for making them.

 The mothers chances to display her offspring and be given fair and square show at the first prizes will be assured at the coming exhibition, for Dr. Neff is considered one of the most competent baby show judges in the United States, she having act ed in similar capacity at a number of shows in the Eastern States, in- cluding New York She directed the first baby show in the State of Min nesota in 1913 and also has acted as assistant director at baby shows at two Iowa State fairs. Dr. Neff has had special training in sociological work, and will have a specially ar ranged score card complete in every detail relative to the different points and qualities of the babies. She will be assisted by competent examiners who will fill in the blanks which will be gone over by a committee of judges, who are to decide which of the babies are the best. The merits and deficiencies of the little ones will be plainly marked on the cards, which will be made in duplicate, the parents receiving a copy to discover why their babies did not take first prize.

SUIT FOR $2s,ooo ON
 TRIAL IN U. s. COURT
iFrom Fridays Daily.l

After the selection of a jury the trial of the suit of John Agnoll against the Santa Fe railroad for $25,- 900 for damages started in the Fed eral court before Judge Sawtelle yes terday afternoon. Agnoll, the plain tiff, occupied the witness chair all afternoon and will again be placed on the stand this morning when court reconvenes at 9:30 o'clock
 Agnoll claims that he was injured while riding in a caboose on freight train. He had left Prescott on pas senger and gone as far as Ash Fork, he then being transferred to the freight to continue his ride to Selig- man. While he was sitting in chair in the caboose one of the berths in the caboose collapsed, it is claimed, and fell on his head causing concuS- sion of the brain. He claims that since that time his health has been ruined and that he has been unable to make a living because of the acci- dent. He is represented by Attorney Robert s. Fisher, of Phoenix.
 Paul Burks, who assisted by Norris and Mitchell, is handling the defense for the Santa Fe, said yesterday that although they admit the berth fell they deny that it was negligence on the part of the railroad. He also de clared that he would prove that the injuries received by the defendant were not permanent and that he had not been deprived of his earning capacity through the accident.
 Those selected for the jury were: George A. Bonelli E. A. Carter, J. Van Dickson, A. R. Human, John C. Hoffman, Len Jenson, Claude Mur- ray, R. D. Postle, Ira Edwards, E. J. F. Horne, w. J. Casey and Amos F. Swigert.
 The other men who have been sum moned to act as jurors during the present term ef the Federal court are: George A. Beebe, Q. R. Gardner, John H. Morgan, Alvin Stukey, C. F. Ryer, Rudolph Baehr, w. s. Elliott, J. C. Lewis and Edward Iselin.

SNOOZER AGAIN
 SHIPPING TO DOUGLAS
(From Fridays Daily.)

The Senator holdings of the Com mercial Mining Company have recent ly assumed important consideration in development and the Snoozer again goes into the shipping class, was the statement made yesterday by Major A. J. Pickrell. Two cars of good grade of copper ore are on the dump and freighting begins at once to this city for loading on the cars for shipment to- the Copper Queen shelter at Douglas. This pro duct will be followed by additional shipments, and with Copper Basin also daily shipping from 40 to GO tons the company is making a bigger yield than at any time in its his tory.
 Major Pickrell also imparted the interesting information that the Sem ator tunnel the base of operating to explore the Snoozer territory, has reached length of 4,5OO feet to date, from which a drift is being run to tap the main ore shoot of the Snooz- CT. This location will afford a yer tical depth of over 700 feet ultimately, as well will big benefits be derived in the probable determination of oth- CT mineral conditions as this heavy work goes ahead.
 Major Pickrell is very much pleased with the Snoozer situation from late operations, and SO far as the Copper Basin holdings are to be considered, he says, several thousand tons of ore are ahead of the teams freighting out to Skull valley.

MANY CHANGES IN THIRTY
 YEARS, SAYS KETTLE
(From Saturdays Daily.)

ATIOLH SdluI uG-g Odlly.J
 Pioneer residents of Prescott will be pleased as well as interested to learn of the arrival recently of w. J. Kettle, from Amador county, Calif., after an absence of over 30 years, and with his daughter, Miss Jane M. Net tie, they are guests of MT. and Mrs. P. A. Johns.
 MT. Kettle is the superintendent of the famous Argonaut mine, which has reached depth of over 4,400 feet and is still handsome dividend payer, be- ing the richest gold mine in Califor- mia.
 Aside from his prominence in min ing circles, his present trip to Pres colt is one in which recollections of other days will be recalled, when he was associated with MT. Johns in operating the old Dos Oris mines, of Hassayampa district, over B years ago, and it is needless to say he re- ceives warm welcome from scores of old 'uns who cherish his genial per. sonality as of yore, and which time has not effaced.
 q am going to the old camp once more, and I sincerely hope the little one-room cabin has been preserved, in which MT. Johns and myself whiled away many pleasant evenings, and attended strictly to business, of course" he informed friends. The visitor will find his old camp wrapped in deep stiffness, but the gloom will be dispelled as the halcyon days are revived, when the old bonanza was in the right hands, and made a fine record. In later years the pay streak pinched out. Mir. Kettle will remain there for week longer and then return to the Amador county mine, with which he has been asso- ciated since the first work was com menced on it.
 MT. Kettle says the only part of Prescott familiar to him is the plaza, but otherwise the town has grown put of his recollection. However, he $ favorably impressed with the evi- fences of growth and prosperity and declares that so long a period will not elapse before making the town another visit.
