DECIDE TO IGNORE
 QUARANTINE BLUFF
Yours very truly,
 GILBERT PARKER.

PHOENIX, May 19-Acting on advice from commission men in Kan sas City, Freight Agent I. T. Sparks of the Arizona Eastern decided to accept shipments of livestock for the Missouri river points, and last even ing trainload of sheep from the Salt River valley pulled out for the East. The livestock quarantine, against Arizona shipments, reliable advices state, has not been put into effect in Kansas and Missouri, and there is no reason why stock should not be sent to Kansas City.
 Arrangements are now being made to run a trainioad of cattle from the Salt River valley through to Kansas City on a fast schedule The train will leave Phoenix, June ?. There is practically nothing to the Kansas quarantine, according to information received from commission men," said Agent Sparks last night. Tn case the bars should be put up against Arizona stock, the Denver market, it is to be remembered, is open to us.

AUTOS COLLIDE;
 OCCUPANTS ESCAPE

NGlOAIl llQdl Odlly.J
 The automobile driven by Earl Heath, with his parents, M-. and Mrs. Arthur Heath and MT. and Mrs. Granville Fain aboard, collided with that of Postmaster w. H. Knight of Humboldt, yesterday afternoon at about o'clock, near the Three Mile house, all however escaping injury.
 The Heath car, however, was wrecked, while that of Knight limped into the city later with its radiator missing and othe- damage done The trouble occurred on a sharp curve, as both cars were travelling at an or dinary rate of speed, the Heath party being en route to Verde valley, while Knight was coming in with D. s. Hibbens as guest That the impact of both autos must have been terrific can be judged by one of the front wheels of the Heath car being splin- tered into kindling wood, while that of Knight, several hundred pounds lighter, was not badly damaged. The escape of all is regarded as remark. able

UNITED VERDE'S NEW
 SHELTER RUNNING
(From Fridays Daily)

In accordance with the wish ex- pressed by Senator w. A. Clark, no formalities whatever are to be ob- served in blowing in the new and huge shelter of the United Verde Copper Company at Clarkdale.
 The plant is now under operation in several departments, but will not be in full blast, however, for few weeks, in treating ores to its capacity of over 2,500 tons per day. It is un- dcrstood that the United Verde IS now in the market for custom ores, and several shipments are scheduled for Clakdale at once, although noth- ing official to this effect as yet has emanated from the company. The old smelte- at the mine is to be razed to the ground in few months, and re- Guction in the future will be centered to the Clarkdale plant. Ore trains are now running from the mine to the new shelter and all bins are filled.
 Senator Clark has been advised of operations beginning. He is expect ed during next week

 GRANTED A PAROLE
(From Thursdays Daily.)

A1lOAA HUI oAdy DdiJJ
 Young Chung, the Chinaman who was sent to Florence on a charge of robbery from this county over a year ago has been paroled according to word received by Justice McLane from the capital yesterday Chung was in the penitentiary serving a term of from 5 to Is years for robbing Chin Chung, one of the Chinese resi- dents of this city. At the time of the jury trial last year the local Chinese element was very much aroused and a tong war between the different fac tions which these men represented was threatened. The matter again was brought in the public light when one of the Chinamen belonging to Chin Chung's tong was brought into the Federal court on a charge of blackmailing and threatening to kill a man of Young Chung's clan in a lette- sent through the United States mails. The Chinaman who was charg ed with having attempted to extort money was acquitted by jury last March.

 George Michaels is the man men, .ioned in the information filed by the State as being the person who was assaulted by Cooper. In the original complaint sworn out against Cooper last March, w. H.

GLORY HOLE PAY
 STREAK HIT ON FARM
(From Thursdays Daily.) )

AA lOAll l llhA AoAA1'(
 An Associated Press dispatch of May 16, mentions rather unusual discovery as having been made on a farm near Rutherford, N. C., recent ly, in which Richard Brewer, had plowed up over $500 in gold coin, and was permitted by the owner to retain this neat sum. The property is owned by man named Boykin, and Brewer was in possession under a lease. The coins all bore date of before 1860, from which it is be- lieved the money was cached on the breaking out of the civil war by the owner. Since that time this farm has changed hands fodr times, and the original owner and his family have long since passed away.
 Of local interest is this discovery, as Brewer and his wife were former residents of this section, living on Banning creek where he followed farming as well as wood hauling to this city About three years ago they returned to the old home in Johnston county, N C., where Mrs. Brewer died a few months later from tuberculosis. They came here for her health, which did not i'm prove.

GAY LIFE CAUSE OF
 DESERTION, SAYS HUSBAND
(Ernrn Wednesdav's Dailvl

(From Wednesdays Oaily)
 Take your decree" said Judge Smith in the Superior court yester- Jay after hearing testimony in suit for divorce brought against Jennie Rose by Charles F. Rose. The testi- Inony was given by both the husband and another man whose name is Charles Rose, although he is no rela- ton to the. plaintiff. Mrs, Rose failed to appear.
 The husband in his testimony said that he had been married to Mrs. Rose, in this city during December, 1913, and that after he had provided her with good home, plenty to eat md other necessities, she, two months later in February, 1914, deserted him and has failed to live with him since that time. He said that his wife had enough of married life afte- two months and had left him to seek a gayer life.
 Charles Rose, who took the stand in behalf of the husband, verified the latter's story in regard to the deser- ion. He also said that he was no re lation to the husband.

FIND SECTIONS OF
 SKELETON IN DELLS
(From Thursdays DaiIy.)

A number of human bones were
 found in the Dells yesterday by Sher-
 if Young and Justice McLane who had gone out to investigate the find ing of part of mysterious skeleton in that country. George E. Thorne, a rancher, reported the matter to the sheriff's office.
 The bones were found among the enormous rock formations of the Dells between the railroad tracks and the dam after an hours search by Thorne, Young and McLane. Thorne had found the portion of the skeleton about week previously, but had not reported it until yesterday after he had been urged by his friends to do so. The search was hazardous and dangerous as the spot where the bones were found was fa- from any trail and the slippery boulders of the Dells were in every direction the. searching party turned. The bones were found in a small crevice, or pass, between the sources of two small rocky canyons and according to their bleached condition have probably been there for number of years. Among them are a collar bone two hips, one thigh ,one shin, one arm, a section of the spinal cord and a broken rib. From the condition of the sections of the skeleton, 1t is sur missed that the person had been dead not less than two or not more than eight years. Although thorough search was made by the party both on the rocks above and in the can yons below no trace of the skull could be found. The pieces that were found were scattered within a radius of 10 or IS feet.
 Theories as to the cause of death | are numerous. The most plausible | supposition is that it was either sui | eide or accidental death, the latter being very likely as the rocks are very steep and high just above the crevice and death Emay have been caused by fall from above. It is also thought that the body might have been buried there by Indians or left there as it could not be buried because of the rocky formation, An. othe- theory advanced is that the bones may be part of the body of D. Scott who disappeared few years ago and is believed to have perished | in that part of the country.

 This young lady closed her school at Walker last Friday, and the oc- casion was made quite an event, in which literary exercises attested to the proficiency attained by her schol- aTs. Miss Stukey conducted her school last winter unGer trying and disagreeable conditions, incidental to deep snow and indictment weather, but in her faithful conception of the duty has the credit of not missing a single day, which has won for her the ad- miration of pupils and parents alike, as well as that community generally. Her leaving is very much regretted and she carries home the good will and affection of all in that district.

TROUBLES CEASE
 AMONG MINE OWNERS
(From Fridays Daily.)

It will be learned with considerable interest in mining circles of this coun- ty that after several, years of strife among the many heirs of w. C. Flint, an amicable adjustment was reached on Wednesday by which the group of four mines, which adjoin the Storm Cloud, near Senator, has been concen- trated into one power. by which ac- ton it is quite probable a deal will soon be closed.
 The closing of final negotiations to this end was consummated by Robert C. Porter, of San Francisco, who re- turned home yesterday, after desig- hating the Commercial Trust & Saw ings Bank of this city to act as trus- tee, which financial house is empow- cred with authority to enter into ne gotiations and close the sale of these mines. It is believed that this dispo- sition of the property will probably follow in short time, and that ab- solute title will be given to any pur- chaser. In past years negotiations were held up, owing to differences arising, in which title blocked the leal, several of the heirs refusing to abide by what others desired.
 MT. Flint passed away many years ago, and in addition to bequeathing lis widow, also now deceased, an in crest in the claims, gave to several other relatives certain interest therein. After the death of Mrs. Flint, her relatives were also cared Tor, and accordingly both families could not adjust their differences un-
 il recently. The Flint holdings are -ated as desirable, the sale of which has been under consideration many lines, only to hang fire until clear title could be given. MT. Flint ex- pended a large sum in developing these four mines.
