John Boyle departed to St. Louis last Tuesday evening, where he will look into the matter of zinc and lead. He has been getting several mines on Stockton Hill ready for operation and can now turn out large tonnage of ore from the De la Fountaine and Shooting Star properties, but owing to the lack of shelter facilities it has been found impossible to handle the mine product. It is the impression that this condition will soon right it. self and that there will be a big mar ket demand for both lead and zinc.

Prescott's Frontier Day.

Prescott, Arizona, June 10, 1915.- Arrangements are going ahead rapidly in connection with the holding of Pres ntt 1915 Frontier Days, July 3-4-5. One of the best features this year will be the comfort afforded the visitors. The committee in charge of this work has been in the field and assures the management that desirable and com fortable accommodations will be provided visitors at reasonable rates. It is Pres cott's proud claim that no overcharge is made during the various celebrations and conventions held in this city.
 Arena Director Haworth will manage each days program and there will not he one dull moment during the entire performance. To do away with the un- necessary delay in getting the broncs into the chutes, MT. Haworth has had built four collapsible chutes, which can be placed around the horses and easily removed. Many new faces will be seen among the contestants in the arena this year, entry blanks having been filled from every state in the Union and Canada. Tom Mix, the cowboy of the the Selig Polyscope Company, who was recently injured while riding in the Los Angeles rodeo has written the manage ment that he expects to be in good shape and ready for the fray July 3. Johnny Fredericks, the Camp Verde rider, whose fine work in the broncho busting contest last year, marked as one of Arizona's best men in western sports, has sent in his entrance blanks for three events.
 Harry Henderson, winner of the mas sive diamond-studded Worlds Champion medal will have to win this medal again this year, in order to keep it. It is beautifully carved affair, the buck ing broncho, in base relief in the center, belng of Roman gold, making very effective and beautiful contrast from the gold in the field of the handsome trophy. Arena Director Haworth is securing horses from every section in Arizona for this big event. The ten noted Juarez outlaws, purchased last year by the management are being exercised daily, but not ridden, at the Frontier Day grounds and are in Al shape.
 Very low excursion rates have been published on all points in Arizona and Prescott is looking forward to her three big days, when Arizonans from North will meet with those of the South.
 Every citizen of Prescott will have for his and her first thought the pleas ure of the strangers within our gates." Several things have been es- tablished by Prescott in the matter of entertainment; she delivers the goods" in the matter of the events promised; all prizes advertised are paid; no ex- tortionate prices are charged; Prescott looks after her visitors and sees to it that all have a place to sleep and enough to eat; and the weather is fine.

BURNING TANK ship
is SAVED BY WAVES
Six Members Of Grew, VIII
Took to Sea in Open Boat,
Reported Lost.

New York. March six members
of the crew of the Norwegian tank
steamer La Habra, carrying a cargo
of benzine, were lost at sea in an open
boat they had launched in an effort
to escape from flames which threat
ened their vessel, according to an un-
usual ship wreck story brought to this
port today from Horta, Fayal, by the
Holland American freighter Zaandyk.
The fire aboard the La Habra was
caused by an explosion of benzine
while she was on her way from Talara
bay, Peru, to London, by way Of the
Panama canal. The captain ordered
the crew to take to the boat and
stand by. The chief officer and FIVE
men were in a boat towing astern
when the painter burned off and they
drifted away without oars in a heavy
sea, he said. ..N y
The fire was extinguished by giant
wave which broke over the ship, and
the captain took her safely into Horta.
February z, by dead reckoning, for all
his navigation instruments were de-
stroyed. p

Japs in America, fearing the boycott,
may prevail on their home government
to recede from its position.

circularizing their countrymen and in
other ways seeking to reach all the
Chinese in this country to advise them
against further dealings with Japs, the

In all the coast cities the plan Ia
already under discussion. The Six

the Chinese and Japanese recently

there frown on the boycott plan. While
the Japs and Chinese do not have so

of overriding those who have been

INSANE MAN RUNS AMUCk
WHEN AROUSED TO ANGER

Centerville, S. D.. March 3.-When
some Centerville young men made
jocular remarks about the wearing ap-
pearl of a stranger, who had been
wandering about town acting in an err
ratic manner, they did not know he was
insane. But they speedily learned that
they had been indiscreet in tantalizing
the stranger, for in an instant he be-
came a raving maniac. He produced a
knife and violently attacked those
about him, but fortunately all the
young men were able to keep out of
his reach. Then he ran amuck through
the streets, entering several business
houses and threatening the lives of
those within. Then he proceeded to the
Chicago e. Northwestern railway depot,
where he attacked the night operator
with the knife. The later made a
fight for life, utilizing a stove poker as
a weapon and with this finally sue
ceeded in knocking the insane man
down. At this juncture the city mar
shall and a posse arrived and after a
struggle succeeded in overpowering
and capturing the crazy man.. The
prisoner proved to be A. J. Gashe, who
last fall made his escape from the
state hospital for the insane at Yank-
ton. n who eve since had been
wandering through the southeastern
section of South Dakota.

FAMILY TROUBLE CAUSES
FARMER TO GO INSANE

Webster, s. D., March 3.-Having re-
covered from self inflicted wounds,
John Kotzea, a Day county farmer, VINO
recently created a sensation by at
tempting to burn the buildings on his
farm, and then tried to end his life by
cutting his throat, has been arrested

this until he became insane. Then nc
set fire to his barn and other buildings
and attempted to end his life by cutting
his throat. Neighbors saw the fire and
went to the scene in time to ave all
the buildings but the barn, which was
destroyed. Kotzea was found in an un-
conscious condition in one Of the
smaller buildings. In welding The
razor he missed the juglar vein. The
barn, which was burned, was a new
one, having been erected only last fall
at a cost OF $1,000. Kotzea was doing
well financially and would have con-
tinued to prosper had 1t not been for
the trouble with his wife.

They are chemical processes, de-
veloped after years of research by DR..
Walter r. Rittman, chemical engineer

output OF gasoline by 200 per cent; the
other makes possible the production
from crude petroleum OF toluol and
benzol. bases for dyes and high ex-
plosives, for which in the past the UNI
ted States n h rest of the world
have depended almost exclusively upon
Germany.
DR.. Rittman has applied for patents
upon his process to prevent the possi-
bility of any monopoly in their use and
will dedicate them to the American
people. ~.

Many towns OF the state are quite even

NEW HEALTH BOARD BILL
GIVEN ROUGH TREATMENT

Pierre, s.. D., March Another bill
comparable to the state board OF health
measure, which was withdrawn after
Senator Urdahl had turned the search
light on II in the senate, came from
the joint committee on public health
and met a similar fate. This bill is
No. 248 and 1t would give county health
officials extraordinary powers and
privileges n salaries similar to what
was proposed for state health officers
In the other bill.
The salary OF the superintendent of
the county board OF health, the bill
provides, may range from 1900 to $3,-
500. Assistants may be appointed with
out limit as to number; an office for
the superintendent, a laboratory with
all medical appliances, surgical tools,
etc., at public expense; the superin-
tendent to have same powers as the
sheriff in making arrests of any per-
sons resisting the carrying out of his
orders; expenses of attending state
and other expenses in connection with
the office are to be paid; compulsory
medical examination Of all school chill
dren is provided with heavy penalties
for interference with health officer.
When this bill came up in the senate
it was proposed to defer it, but SEN
ator Urdahl objected and asked for
the opportunity to give the bill the
treatment 1t deserved. Senator Daley
indefinite postponement and a
large majority voted to pass 1t on to
the undertaken.
1t is doubtful If state officials con-
nected with the health and medical
boards will be able to get anything

tighter control owe the people. A
