(From Wednesdays DailyD

De-mont was taken to the coast city quite i'll about one month ago, and submitted to an operation, from which but little bene- fit was received.

VERDE ORCHARDS
 SUSTAIN BIG LOSSES
(From Wednesdays DaiIy.l


 Reports reaching this city of the heavy losses caused by last weeks freezing weather continue to be dis couraging and yesterday it was stated many of the largest orchards in the Verde valley will have but a partial yield of fruit this season compared to former years. The Monroe and Wingheld places were among the hardest hit in the Lower Verde and generally speaking all places will suffer.
 The J. K. Hall ranch on Lower Lynx creek, was also reported yes terday as total loss as to its fine peaches and other fruits. This place was noted for its excellent product, commanding ready market, and be- irg unable to supply the demand.
 Charles Young, who arrived from Ferguson valley yesterday, stated the fruit loss was complete as well was the alfalfa crop caught, with other growths as we'll
 The Earnhart apple orchard in Kirkland valley was blighted from end to end and it was also stated that Fair Oaks was disast-ously hit.

is that duty? Is it not apparent, that more than ever before, we must in our daily living, so shape our conduct that as individuals and as a nation, we give action-dynamic action-to right ideas? Do we not owe to hu- manity the duty of revealing in our national life, that sympathy, not force or aggrandizement, is the path to at tain human happiness?
 Ours is the only nation in the world that proclaims that the purpose of government is for "the people to form a more perfect union." This purpose can never justify any act of force whose motive is envy or aggrandize- ment. The thousand of miles of un- protected frontier proclaims that we possess no fear of our neighbors, and the peace and good will within our borders permeates the minds of men of every speech from every nation. Our national life must reveal that "a more perfect union" among men is the pathway that leads to happiness and safety for all mankind.
 Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them"

 R. J. Bleck, foreman of the Dol phin mill, who was business visitor to the city during the week, stated that the mine and mill were steadily operating, and so far as returns from treating the product were to be con sidered, the proposition was a sue cess.
 The system of reduction is for the purpose of ascertaining the best method by which the ores are to be treated, and the capacity of the pres cnt plant is Of limited tonnage ac- cordingly. Mine development goes ahead actively, and new zones being penetrated are decidedly encouraging for determining a splendid producer. Snow and rain have interfered with the plans of the company for the past four months, but with better weather hereafter, permanent operations arc to be conducted Prof. w. H. Tenn me, the consulting engineer of the company and also one of the p-inci- pal owners, is at the camp personally directing affairs.

MINING CLAIMS
 ARE TAXABLE PROPERTY

PHOENIX, May 5.-That mining
 claims are property in the fullest sense of the word, distinct from the land itself, vendible, inheritable and taxable, is the decision of the Stu preme court handed down yesterday in the case of Frank and Josephine Powers vs. R. R. Earhart, treasurer and ex-oficio tax collector of Santa Cruz county. The case, which was brought to secure the repayment of taxes paid under protest on the liar shaw group of mining claims, was reversed and remanded with direc tions to sustain the general demurrer and dismiss the action.
 In its opinion, the Supreme court defines mining claims as right to en- gage in mining operations, and as in no way affecting the ownership of the land, which in this case was vest ed in the United States government. The court held that the state had the power to tax the mining claim in question and, that if it had been nec- cssary to enforce collection of the tax by sale of the property, such a sale would have conveyed merely the right of possession and affecting no of the United States.

 Seve-ing the bonds of matrimony between Eula C. Bourne and Wm. F. Bourne, Judge Smith granted the former decree in the Superior court yesterday, after hearing testimony from both the wife and her sister.
 Mrs. Bourne, a teacher at the Beaver creek school, took the stand and in testifying in he-. own behalf said that because of the baroness of the cupboard in their home she left her husband about two years ago and took a position as a school teacher rather than depend on him and ,starve and starve to death.
 Pretty 17-year-old Ruby Collins, Mrs. Bourne's sister, who lives with her on Beaver creek, testified in her sisters behalf, co=roborating her story and saying that she had lived with Mrs. Bourne for two years and during that time Bourne had failed to contribute anything to his wife's support
 The husband and his attorney, al- though they knew of the suit failed to appear. The couple were married in Estencia, N. M., on the 27th of Octo- Der, 1910.

PINE MOUNTAIN MILL
 SOON TO RUMBLE
(From Wednesdays Daily.)

-(trom Wednesdays Dally.)
 Before leaving for Los Angeles yesterday on mining business, Col. w. C. Tonkin, who assumed charge of the Pine Mountain holdings near Walker, during last winter, stated the mill had been repaired and stamps would begin dropping not later than June 1.
 He also mentioned the important fact that the old workings had been entered and tonnage sufficient to last fo- several months had been eX- posed. In addition to the original location known as the Pine Mountain, other claims were included in the group, and which were active under the leasing system, with production going ahead steadily. Snow during the winter proved handicap in talk ing in machinery, but this obstacle is at an end.
 In reviving this old property mod ern machinery has been installed and system of practical mining intro duced, which augurs favorably fo- this proposition. The present opera tions on the group will be the first time in over a quarter of a century since the old camp has assumed an active air.

NARROW ESCAPE
 FROM HEAVY LOSS

NIIOul HuISQdy DdllV.J
 Contrary to reports that sheep owners had sustained quite heavy losses in lambs, incidental to the ex- tremely cold weather of last week, C. E. Burton while in the city yester- day from Jerome Junction, entered a flat denial.
 No losses whatever had been re- ported, he says, but that owners had been fortunately favored through cir cumstances, he freely admitted. He said: Had the cold wave taken place four days later than last Fri day, it IS difficult to place an estimate on the destruction of lambs that would have followed Thousands of sheep are on the drive northward to summer ranges, and many bands had just commenced to move away from the desert elevations, when snow and rain commenced to fall with the re- sultant cold wave They fingered longer than usual in winter quarters, as feed was good and their condition was excellent. But had they been overtaken in the higher regions, thou sands of dollars would have been the toll paid, beyond any question, in loss Of lambs. Many bands are still held on the desert, and some are travelling slowly northwa-d."

His prin- cipal injury is on the back, while his body shows many bruises also. At first it was believed his injuries were internal, but his improvement yester- day dispelled this fear.
 MT. George is a brother of Mrs. R. R. Roberts, and a coincidence linked to this accident is that her brother-in-iaw, Lee Roberts, met with similar accident and at iden- tically the same place only a few weeks ago.

GIVES NOTICE TO
 BOOTLEGGERS TO QUIT

BISBEE, May 5.-Yesterday noon Sheriff Wheeler, armed with legal papers, took possession of the two trunks of whiskey that have been at the baggage room at the depot in Douglas for several days. Each trunk contained two cases of Cedar Brook whiskey in pint bottles There was case at each end of the trunk, with an empty in between.
 Officers have hard enough time to capture bootleggers without having them released or given small fines af- ter they are captured" said Sheriff Harry Wheeler yesterday. The sher- if came through Bisbee on his way : to Douglas, from his headquarters at Tombstone. Continuing, he said, "The only way to stop bootlegging is to impose heavy fines and then en- force them. Practically every fine that has been imposed during the past session of the Superior court was remitted.
 Tt is not surprising to me that both Russell and Rodgers jumped their bonds. Russell never served a day in the jail from the time he was ar rested and even after he was found guilty he was allowed by the court to return to Douglas Quite naturally he fled the country. Whether his bonds men are responsible is not for me to say. The court held that his bond was continuing one and was in force even after he was found guilty.
 q can say this, however, that with Judge Lockwood patience has ceased to be a virtue and I know that the next bootleggers who are found guilty in his court will receive heavy sen tences. That is the only way to stop the practice"
 The sheriff is trying to find way to gain legal possession of the 60 gal Ions of whiskey which he and his deputies captured from Percy Rodg- CTS, the Tucson bootlegger. The whiskey is now in the sheriff's care, but the court has ordered it returned to the defendants attorney, w. G.. Gilmore. Wheeler wants to destroy it as he did the 50 quarts taken from George w. Bragg, the Tucson negro. He is afraid to do so, however, un- less confident he has the legal right
 Soft For Rodgers.
 Rodgers got to Tucson with % gal Ions the trip before the one when he was captured. Now if he gets his 60 gallons back there will still be money in it for him even after forfeiting a $35O bond.
 H. B. Russell, who is presumed to have gone to Texas, was fined $250 and given IS months in the county jail. Saturday it was enormously re- ported that his sentence was two years. Being a misdcmeanor bootleg ging is not an extraditable offense and sentences are served in the coun ty jail instead of the penitentiary.
 Sheriff Wheeler says there is no doubt that prohibition has decreased | crime, both great and small, in Co., chise county, and that sheriffs in oth- CT parts of the state say the same thing. There are only four prisoners ir the county jail at present, which is the smallest number in the mem ory of the sheriff. In five months there has been only one murder as against an average of 21A per month up to the first of the year
 Sheriff Wheeler says there is more bootlegging in Douglas than in any other part of the county, which may possibly be due to the fact that there is a bigger market there than else where, due to the increased male pop. ulation.
