TO AVOID DEFICIT

PANAMA, April s. Correspond cnce of The Associated Press) To avert further monthly deficits the Panama Railroad Company is plan ming to resume the transportation of broken and less than cargo lots across the isthmus by rail instead of carry ing them by steamer through the canal. It is decided the railway is losing from $5O,OOO to $6O,OOO a month which is due to the lack of freight across the isthmus from which the railway obtains anything like paying revenue. If carried out the proposed step may eliminate the Panama rail road steamship line boats from using the canal. Instead they will make their destinations at Cristobal as be- fore the canal was opened for traffic. The steamship line is still making money and, it is stated, would con tinue to do so even with the loss of the through trans-isthmian freight.

GETTING READY FOR
 BIG RUSH TO COAST
(From Wednesdays Daily.)

VI
 State Division Engineer F. R. Goodman returned a few days ago from a reconnaissance of the Old Trails route in the north, and for the benefit of auto tourists stated that the road between Flagstaff and Will lians is impossible while from Mag dalena, New Mexico, to Springer vile, Arizona, like conditions prevail. The blockade of snow and mud will be lifted in about two weeks.
 Held Up at Albuquerque arc 25O autos and nearly 1000 people. while along the route arc fully fifty more autos. All other divisions of the Old Trails arc open and in fine condition is the report made by Goodman, who has negotiated the route from cast to west. Data from eastern auto associ- ations is now available and it is com puted that from May 1 to September 1, of this year, there will pass over the Old Trails to the coast fully 50,- GOO machines, this estimate being con sidered very conservative. The Pet, rihed Forests, the Moqui Indian Vii lagcs, Grand Canyon, Cliff Dwellings and other historical attractions arc the inducements.

 Walcott and Chapman, who will give exhibitions of Arizona's wild west era, beginning in Ohio, have made cleanup of paraphernalia used in pioneer days of this region.
 One old stage coach, in particular, was purchased from a resident of Camp Verde. which has an authenti- cated age of fifty years, bearing tine familiar inscription on each side of the boot, U. s. Mail" This vehicle was used between the military post of Camp Verde and Prescott in 1889, and was supposed to be bullet proof.
 Dr. w. E. Day, of this city, identi- fed this coach as the one he used on several occasions in coming to Fort Whipple when in service as an army officer at Camp Verde, and stated 1t was considered as very comfortable means of conveyance. An Arizona | into burro, is also among the other novelties rounded up in this region, all being shipped yesterday by train.

FOUND HELPLESS
 ALONGSIDE OF ROAD
(From Saturdays Daily,

(FrOm SaturQayS Oally)
 One arm gone the other and the rest of his body partly paralyzed, Clarence Beebe, lone health-seeking traveller, 70 years old, was found in a helpless condition alongside of his camp wagon on the road in Copper Basin about 12 miles from Prescott by Constable Fitzgerald and Deputy Sheriff Bozarth yesterday morning.
 The old gentleman assisted by the Two county officers got into the auto mobile, in which his rcscuers had been sent to get him, and was taken 70 the county jail where he was giv- cn something to eat and drink. The men were sent out by the supcrvis- DTS who had been notified of the mans plight by A. B. Peach of the Copper Basin section.
 According to the story related at he sheriff's office by Beebe, who is being held for examination by County Physician Southworth, he left Miles City, Montana, his home, about three years ago with camp outfit, wagon and two burros, journeying thousands of miles through Idaho, Nevada, Cal fornia, Arizona and down into Tex $, on health-seeking trip. Getting $ far as Texas and having no sue cess in his venture he decided to start north for his home in Montana, where le has relatives. On reaching Cop per Basin about six days ago he turn d his two burros loose to hunt for sood. It being scarce in that sec ion the animals wandered off quite ! distance and did not return, leaving i'm stranded with very little to eat n his wagon.
 He had just about given up hope, le not being able to walk any great distance, when Mir. Peach saw him md asked him if he wanted help from he county which, he declared, he needed and would be very thankful ior. On receiving the report the SUI pcrvisors granted relief immediately.
 After being examined by Dr. Southworth the old gentleman will be sent to the country farm to await news from his sons or daugh- tcrs who live in Miles City, and T rtCna Montana

WOMAN PIONEER IN
 NEWSPAPER WORK DEAD

PHOENIX, April S.-Mrs. Emma
 Betterman Jennings, wife of O. w.
 Jennings, of Wickenburg, died in this

 weeks. The funeral was held at the
 George F. Merryman chapel Wednes-
 day afternoon and intermcnt was
 made in Greenwood cemetery with the honors of the Order of the East
 ern Star, deceased having been a member of Phoenix Chapter No. 5 since 1905.
 Mrs. Jennings was woman of more than ordinary attainments and her career was quite eventful, as oc- equations in which she achieved sue cess, though no longer novel among women's activities, were then regard ed as unusual for those of her sex. Born in Seneca, Illinois, of foreign percentage, in early life she moved to the home of a sister in Avoca, Iowa. Later she went to Denver and took up newspaper work with brother-in- law, being also concerned in the pub lication of the first newspaper in Cripple Creek.

Redwood Jenkins, formerly Of Prescott, and a friend of the family, officiating.
 In 1902, Mir. and Mrs. Jennings re turned from Mexico, settled at Wick enburg, where both have played prom inent parts in the community life, both business and social, and where Mrs. Jennings is sincerely mourned by all Beside her husband, Mrs. Jennings is survived among her i'm mediate relatives by two sisters, Mrs. John Rumsey, of Chicago, and Mrs. H. B. Battey, of Council Bluffs, Iowa.

 J. A. Martin, of Mayer, interested in mines of that field, stated yester- day that construction of the new GUS tom plant is going ahead energetical- ly, and good progress is being made. The bunk and boarding houses are quite large and with the office quart CTS, are completed. The pouring of concrete for the mill structure is go ing ahead, and active construction will begin, 1t is stated, this month. Grading is nearing completion also, and quite large number of men arc employed.
 Martin says Mayer is lively, while miners nearby are getting to work on claims that have been idle for years, owing to prohibitivc rates in market ing their products. It is now be- licved that inside of % days the new works will be in full blast.

BEQUEATHS HOME
 TO FRIENDLESS ANIMALS

PHOENIX, April 8-Miss Mary A TyrelIs residence at No. 1510 East Washington street may yet be g home for sick, homeless and friend less dumb animals, especially cats dogs and horses, despite relatives who are fighting for the property.
 The Tyrell case reached the Su- preme court this morning on an ap- peal from the Superior court of this county In this appeal, three cous- ins of Miss Tyrell seek to have the order of the Superior court, refusing to revoke Miss Tyrells will, set aside.
 These contestants are Louisa H. Knauff, Matilda F. Pearson and w. H. Pearson, all living in the East. They allege that Miss Tyrell was in competent to make a will and ask that it be revoked.
 Miss Tyrell was a retired school teacher who died several months ago at her home on East Washington street, where she had lived alone for many years.
 A short time before her death she made a will which was found sealed in an envelope. It said that her home should be used by the humane society for home for sick, home less and friendless dumb animals, es- pecially cats, dogs, and horses. She further said that all the animals left should be given the best of care until they died a natural dcath
 In concluding. her will she added the words, q leave nothing to any person or persons"
 Following her death the three re1a- lives started court proceedings to have the will set aside The Superior court refused to and now the case has been appealed to the higher court.
 The Tyrell property is worth about $1 500.

PRACTICAL SHORT
 COURSES FOR MINERS

IUSCON, April S-lt is announced
 by Professor Charles F. Willis, di'
 rector of the Bureau of Mines of the | University of Arizona, that plans are
 being made for a short course for
 miners, mill men and prospectors for
 next year along quite novel lines.
 The customary short course as given
 by other institutions ranges from periods of from two weeks to four months, and include a group of lec- lures which must necessarily cover a large field in a short time. It does not, therefore, admit of the compile ton or the thorough understanding of any one subject.
 The branches of the mining indus try are so diverse that the man wish ing to study assaying may not care in the least about field geology, mine management, electrical machinery, etc, or one desiring to study the me chanical ends of mining would not be interested in the methods of prospect ing or elementary mineralogy.
 As it is now outlined, man may come to the College of Mines of the University of Arizona without the usual entrance requirements and at practically no cost, and take intensive study on one individual subject or group of subjects, or if taking the whole course, would complete very intensive trade course in mining. The man whose chief interest lies in pros pecting could take courses in ele- mentary mineralogy, elementary ge- ology, field geology, prospecting .and assaying; one to whom the mechani- cal end offered the most advantages could take courses in practical under ground mining, use and care of rock drills, electricity applied to mining. mechanics applied to mining and gas engines; one whose interests are in mill work could probably take to best advantage the courses ill assaying, cyanidation, concentration and hota- ton; one preparing himself for shift boss or mine foreman might well take the course in mine blacksmithing, | mine timbering and practical under ground mining; and so on, with vari- ous combinations that allow an in tensive study of one branch of the mining industry.
 The work is planned to be inten- sely practical, its sole object being to allow men of mature age the facili- ties for study to better themselves in their present positions. It is believed that the demand for such a course IS great, and it is anticipated that after the first year it will be necessary to extend the work even farther.
 The plans are not completed as yet, owing to the fact that the state legis lature at its regular session did not pass the appropriation bills; when these bills are passed, more complete will be given out.

WATERS IN ARMS

PARIS, April 8. Correspondence of The Associated Press) - Paris walters arc up in arms against a prop osition to extend the employment of women in restaurants and cafes. Heretofore women have been admit ted to a certain class of popular pric- cd restaurants and to recently estab- lished bars, only. The mobilization took a great many walters and it was suggested their places might be taken advantageously by women. The walters hold that there is no necessity for it as business is much reduced. They fear the introduction of wom- en now would develop serious labor conflicts after the war.

HEAVY REVENUE
 FROM SHEEP INDUSTRY
(.GIrn s.6epII4 uoLI)

S<
 "The close of winter feeding and shearing drawing to an end at Mayer and Cordes, finds the sheep industry :n the finest condition ever known, said N. J. Ritter, who is in the city from Black Canyon.
 He estimates that from Beardsley alone will be shipped fully 100000 pounds of wool, and with scattered points to be heard from, this tonnage will be swelled to 500,0O0 pounds ad- ditional. Such an output has never been known in the history of the business, and fully three quarters of this weight is to the credit of Yavapai county.
 One of the interesting features at .ached to a successful season in feed ing is that no losses whatever have occurred, and the price of wool is astounding, compared to former years.
 Ritter states that cons1gnments made to eastern houses will run to as nigh as 31 cents per pound, while the minimum price was 25 cents. This means that Yavapai growers will realize at least half a million of dol lars for their wool alone, and with marketing of mutton, also at top notch price, million of dollars will be the gross receipts for the year. All sheepmen admit their business faces decidedly prosperous times.

HEROIC PIONEER
 ANSWERS THE SUMMONS
(From FridaY's DaiIvN

| N- AOAAA A@NASNJ NNAAS sJ
 | J. H. Lee, one of the first Ameri
 cans to enter this section of Arizona
 is no more, his death taking place
 Wednesday night at the American
 ranch, near the foot of Granite noun
 tain. The fatal affliction was Bright
 disease, and complication of ills.
 The death of Mir Lee takes away
 one of the most resolute men of pioneer days, as well as one of the
 states most exemplary citizens. He settled at the above place in 1863, when that locality was infested by Apaches, and life was all the more insecure as the rugged range nearby afforded shelter for Indian depreda- tions that followed for many years. Lee met these perilous situations heroically and single-handed had the credit of making more good Injuns" than any other man who lived in the country.
 The American ranch in early days was on the main travelled road to California but for years was com pletely isolated by many miles from any habitation whatever
 Year in and year out this courage ous frontiersman combatted dangers that were imminent from the time the sun rose until it set, in building home for his wife and children, and in retaining the land to make it sup porting. His recital of early day perils can best be judged, when it is stated that he never left the home alone for five consecutive years to come to Prescott during the day time, invariably travelling after night fall. At work in the field he was am pushed several times, but in each case he was the victor in a sharp fight. "Of course got in many tight places but got out all right, because my time had not come" he informed friends. The fact of the matter was that Lee had all the cunning of the red man, and was ready for any em- ergency. His physical ability was re- markable. At 70 years of age he went to Alaskan gold fields, remaining away for two years. Fire destroyed his property and the old homestead claimed him for the rest of his life.
 For the past five years and up to within only a few months ago, he was as active as in early days. Lee came from Colorado overland. He was native of Kentcky, and was aged 79 years. Surviving is faith ful and devoted wife to the last, and four sons, John, Fitzhugh, Carl and A. L. Lee, of this county. The re- mains are at Ruffner's and the funeral will take place today.

MINE OPERATOR TO
 BUILD WAGON ROAD
(From Thursdays DaiIy.)

McNu1ty & Mcbride do not pro pose to pack out any more ore from their camp on Big Copper creek, and reload on freight teams, like last year, but will build a new wagon road from the Saddle of Copper Basin to the Green Mountain camp, starting work in a few days.
 Mir. McNulty, who was ill the city yesterday, stated the distance will be about three and one-half miles. This move is due to the showing made in recent development, a three-foot vein of copper sulphide orc being opened LID that averages 7 40 per cent. Shipping is to begin in few months, and Skull valley will be the railroad loading point, the haul being about ten miles.
