LEAGUE STANDING

HAYDEN, Act. 6. Especial Core
spondence)-Aftert taking nice lead of
two runs in the first and remaining
ahead until the eighth the Mill boys
this afternoon allowed the Smelterites
to run away with the victory by the
close margin of one score, the contest
closing at five to four for the Ore
Puddlers. 1t was close contest with
both pitchers doing splendid work but
the team support was poor and those
fast features that were became OBJ
scured by the predominance of errors,
principally on the side of the Millers.
The Millers were first to bat and
after Kelliher and Van were down
Whelan, sent hot drive to Hall which
was really too warm to handle and he
arrived safely. galloway followed with
a long fly over right field fence for four
sacks. bringing Whelan in ahead of
him.
After the first the Mill boys seemed
completely at the mercy of Hall and
usually retired as fast as they faced
him.
In the ninth with one out and two
on bags Powell hit to Heister at third
and both Zamloch and Powell were
out on fast double closing the game
with the Smelterites leading.
Red Toner for the Millers was work
ing fine and the Smelter boys could
only occasionally connect but loose
work of their opponents gave them the
game
In the eighth, Heister was first and
flew safe to left. Hall then claimed
safety advancing Heister. Just at this
moment Manager Gibson of the Millers
pulled Red" and sent Dent in to finish
the work Stadelli faced Dent and
bunted, Wachob fielding the ball just
a few feet from the plate and passing
it to third putting Heister out there.

RAY TEAM. RECEIVED SILVER
MEDAL AT FRISCO FAIR


The Department of the Interior has
, forwarded to the boys who were in
the first aid contests at San Francisco
the silver medals donated by the Cal
ifornia Metal Producers association.
These were given to the boys for rep
resenting the state of Arizona at the
fair and are exceptionally a work of
art. The medals are of silver, on a
pendant and have picture of two
men on the same, one receiving first
aid treatment and the other admin
istering first aid.
The Mine Rescue Car No. 2 will
be in Ray Friday, and the boys will
be glad to welcome them to our
camp. The arrival of the first car
was the cause of the starting of the
first aid work in Ray, and it has been
going steadily forward ever since that
time. There are quite number of
trained men in Ray at the present
time, but those who desire to take up

MINERAL CREEK BRIDGE
IS NOW A CERTAINTY

Thanks to the board of supervisors
of Pinal county. They have COM
Piled with the wishes of the people
of this section and authorized the
building of bridge across Mineral
creek, at a location practically OPP
posite the colored settlement at Ray,
which is between kay town and the
depot. The road will run from the
west end of the bridge, on the west
side of the SoufIern & Haley prop
erty up over the new townsite on the
north of the American toWnsite and
thence over the hills to Superior
Tnis will give nice grade and keep
the road out of the creek bed and at
the same time givethe people oppor-
gtunity to cross when the water is
high. This is one of the best things
the supervisors have done for this
section, as it will now enable the
children to go and come from school
when the water is high and will not
force men with teams and automo-
biles to transport the same over the
railroad for a distance of several
miles, as they will now have bridge
The board is to be complimented
for the stand they have taken in or
dering County Engineer Stafford to
go ahead and rush it with all possi-
BILE speed. Mr.. Stafford and Mr.
Troxall, road foreman, will start
about Thursday or Friday to get the
thing going and will push the bridge
and road to an early completion BY
the first of the year we should be
travelling over the new bridge and
road.
We take our hats off to Messrs.
Keating and Thompson and the rest
of those who realized the needs of
their constituents and hope they will
not have cause for complaint in do
ing this piece of work, for the coun-

Tucson May Get
Bureau Mine Station

TUCSON, Ariz., Oct. THE visit
to Tucson during the past week of
the Honorable Van H. Manning, di-
rector of the United States Bureau
of Mines, is significant in the fact
that it is a step in the progress of
the state bureau of mines. The pur-
pose of Mr.. Manning's visit was to
investigate the conditions of Tucson
as location of one of the proposed
mining experiment stations to be es-
tablished by the federal bureau
By an act of congress, passed in
March, 1915, known as the Kern
Foster bill, it was provided that
there should be established at places
selected by the secretary of the in
terror ten mining experiment stations,
of which three should be established
the coming year. No appropriation
being left to the general budget of
the federal bureau for the next year.
1t was also provided in the same act
that the federal bureau might ac-
cept donations or contributions from
states of. cooperative work., build
ings or money.
In the selection of the first three
stations, it was understood at the
time the bill was passed that Alaska
was to have one. AS Utah already
has a temporary station, this will
undoubtedly be made permanent,
leaving only one station to be sought
for by the other states Arizona
claimed attention Immediately, owing
to the fact that it could provide CO.
operation with the state bureau of
mines and could provide for the
housing of the experiment station on
the campus of the University of Ari
zona. AS Tucson is the geogra phical
center of the copper area of Arizona,
it would be a logical place for the
establishment of a station to handle
copper problems, the problems of the
investigation of sulphur smoke and
flue dust, the investigation of leach
ing methods for low grade copper
ores, Investigations of methods of
separating the many low grade large
deposits that are to be found within

POWERS ASTOUNDtO At
Development IN RAY

T. T. Powers, representative from
Maricopa county, paid his first visit
to Ray this week and was greatly
surprised and pleased at the develop
ment which he found here. He had
not realized, he said, the extent of
the plant Of the Ray Consolidated
Copper company or the size of the
camp.
Il have been more than surprised"
declared Mr.. Powers, Ito find an in
dustrial community of this extent
and development contributary to the
business advancement of Phoenix and
the Salt River valley, and had
realized the Importance Of the mining
industry in Arizona as 1 do after
having seen this great plant, my pol
icy in the last legislature would have
been different"
The Arizona copper camp., 1915-10-08

the area of Arizona as we'll as in
the neighboring states.
The copper problems of Arizona
are distinctly different from the cop
per. problems of the two states near
est to it in Importance, Montana and
Michigan, Michigan problems being
largely with native copper and Mon.
tana problems dealing with arsenic
combinations While the copper
problems of Arizona are to be found
in greater extent here than elsewhere,
they are national in Importance, for
the solution of them would provide
methods Of working many deposits in
other states.
AS it is understood, the plan of
cooperation between the federal
bureau of mines and the state bureau
is that the former will handle the
larger problems, the solution of which
will be felt in other states as we'll as
in Arizona, and the state bureau
handling the problems of local impor-
tance, each acting as a consulting
bureau for the other. The funds will
be handled separately, the $4,000
which is to be annually appropriated
for the support of the federal sta
ton being spent directly from the
Washington office.
This move is of immense impor-
tance to the mining industry of Ari-
IONA as we'll as to the state bureau
of mines. 1t means the official rec
ognition of Arizona as a great min
ing state, and it means many thou
sands of dollars added to the valua-
ton of the state by making available
many deposits which are now of no
value.

zona, California, Pennsylvania, and
also when it is taken into considera-
ton that the Ray Con. boys have
only been engaged in this contest
work for the past eight months there
is no doubt but what they have made
a remarkable showing; there were
teams on the field which had been
contesting for the past three years
that made smaller scores than our
boys This team never worked bet
ter than they did in San Francisco,
sideration that the personal equation
enters to some extent into the judg-
ing, no one need feel ashamed of the
score made by the boys. There is
a strong sentiment among govern
ment officials in favor of greater
effort being made to standardize the
discounts in this contest work Until
such can be done there is a great
deal of uncertainty as to just what
'io outSoiiie VI d coHlesl may pe uH-
til the figures are all in.
The Immediately preceding remark
is not in the nature of kick but
rather a simple fact. We here in
Arizona are trying to boost, not
knock, and wish to take this means
of making known our thanks for the
good time the Ray Con. boys were
shown in San Francisco and for the
conscientious effort made by the
gentlemen who were so kind to act
as judges in this contest.

APPEAL AGAIN
DENIED BY SUPREME COURT

d
PHOENIX, Ariz., Oct. THE SUI
preme court today denied the motion
of Abbey & Allen, attorneys for Ra-
mon Villalobo for a rehearing of the
case. The attorneys alleged in their
motion that irreparable injury would
be done them professionally if the
courts censure contained in the or
der dismissing the appeal was al
lowed to stand, and asked that they
be freed from the charge of neglect
contained therein. Villalobo's appeal
was not filed until seven months
after the legal limit for filing had
expired. Abbey & Allen, however,
did not take charge of the case until
after the resentencing of Villalobo
last January. Villalobo is sentenced
to hang December 10.

List OF Winners In
Ciuic Beauty Contest

Mrs. Lugo was given the prize, but
in the case of Mrs. Feliz she was
given SIS special prize for the eff
forts she had made and being such
a close second.
In Ray town Mr.. Webster should
be given special commendation as
he has one of the prettiest tiny
places in the business section.
In Hayden Mr.. NJ E. Webster was
given first prize over a long list of
contestants.
1t is very encouraging to see such
interest taken in the Deautification
of the homes in the mining camps
1t is to be hoped that, as fall is
coming, people will be more enthused
than ever and a great many more
will take such interest in their places
as to have them looking more tidy.
Nothing so enhances the value of a
place as well kept lawn, and it is
we'll worth the effort, for it reminds
passers-by of home, back east
Let the whole town get together
now and work for a City Beautiful
and let there be no more dirty lots,
so that strangers coming to town
will look with admiration upon the
cleanliness of Ray and Sonora.
Soon the sewers will be in Ray and
there should be no reason why we
should not have a well kept city.

During the month of February the
management of the Ray Consolidated
Copper company at Ray and Hay
den, observing the pride some of the
residents of the various townsites
were taking in the interest of beauti-
flying their grounds, offered a prize
of $25 to the person having the most
beautiful yard on the first of Octo-
ber. There has been a great deal of
rivalry among the next-to- nature
artists, and it is to be hoped those
who participated but did not win
first prize will not lose heart, for the
efforts spent in improving their
desert ground are well worthy of
emulation.

fered the law at the home of Mrs.
Jacobs had been considered the pref

judges felt that her efforts should

The last of the boys in the Ray
Consolidated First Aid Team arrived
in town Tuesday, and the why's and
the wherefores were quickly made
known. 1t seems that the Homestake
Mining company of Lead, S. D., took
first place with score of SO per
cent; Roslyn Fuel company took Sec
ond with 9S.6 per cent; the Goldfield
Consolidated third with 96 per cent,
and the Ray Consolidated fourth with
95.6 per cent. The Ray boys tied
with the Homestake team for first
place in the full team events but lost
in working off the tie. The scores
made in the different events are as
follows:
One-man event. SO per cent; two
man event, 95 per cent; three-man
event. SO per cent; first full team
event, 81 per cent second full team
event, 100 per cent.
A special prize was given for ex-
cellence in resustication and the Ray
Con. team, although not actually
winning this prize, ran very high
with score of 9S per cent.
In working off the tie with the
Homestake team for first place in
the full team events the boys lost by
one per cent, the Homestake team
making perfect score with the Ray
