JAW FOUND NEAR
 KINGMAN

KINGMAN, Jan. 11-While search ing for gravel with which to surface the new Oatman-Topock road, Lewis Stirzel found the jaw bone of mas todon, with all the teeth intact.
 The two sections of what appeared to have been the lower jaw of the animal will weigh about 110 pounds and are 20 inches long by nine inches in depth. The molar or back teeth are nine inches in length by four inches wide. The jaw shows three rows of teeth, although two of the rows are much smaller than the in ncr row. The bones were found inn bcdded in a silty mass, below heavy deposit of gravel and sand, and from its appearance 1t must have been caught in a morass and died there as the ground shows that at one time it was swamp and later was cover ed by an immense deposit of gravel and sand, which later was eroded out by the securing of the river. The locality is some distance back from the Colorado river and close 10 the concrete and sand hills, but on the valley level.
 s. s. Jones has the find and has reported it to the university of the state and expects that a party will

REVIVAL OF 8O PER CENT LAW
 IS SOUGHT

DOUGLAS, Jan. 1.-The eighty per cent, or anti-alien labor law, which was held by tribunal of fed cral judges to have been unconstitu- tional, will probably be revived at the present session of the state leg ;slature, although in such different form that 1t will comply in its verbi- age and provisions with the constitu- ton and treaties with foreign gov crnments, according to F. B. Aaron of this city, who left last night for Phoenix. Mir. Aaron will remain in the state capital throughout the ses- sion, being the representative of the American Federation of Labor.
 Further than that the revival of the eighty per cent law, which he admitted was poorly drafted, would be attempted, Aaron refused to dis cuss the matter However, he said there are several other pieces of leg islation which he hopes to see put through both houses and signed by the governor before the session is completed. He refused, to be more specific on this point.
 MT. Aaron will probably be the only A. F. of L. representative from Southern Arizona in the capital dur ing the session although there may be representatives from the coast. He expects to remain in Phoenix un- til the session is over.

CHICAGO BANK WOULD BUY.
 BONDS
(From Tuesdays Daily.)

R. T. Belcher. clerk of the board of supervisors, yesterday received a telegram from the Commercial Trust & Savings Bank, of Chicago, asking if the court house bonds of Yavapai county had yet been sold, and stat ing that if there was a prospect Of sufficient strength to warrant, the bank would instruct it's representa- tive, who is now in the west, to go to Prescott and take the matter of sale up with the board of supervis- ors. Mir. Belcher wired a reply to the effect that the bonds could not be sold at private sale and that any deal made would have to be for pur. chase at par and as a result of reg ular advertisement from the board for the same, which would be made at the next regular meeting.
 This is only one of many inquiries concerning these bonds which have been made, but the only one which indicated desire to purchase at pri- vate sale. The inquiry indicates that the money market of the country has commenced to walk on easy street again and that when the time arrives it will be no trouble for the board to sell the bonds voted. some time since for splendid new county building in Prescott. So confident gre the boys about the court house that dirt will soon be flying on the proposed new building that they have already commenced to talk where they will be temporarily located when the historic old court house com mences to migrate toward the gar bage can of innocuous desuetude. The new trend of affairs of course means that the board will have to provide new quarters for the various county offices during the construc ton period, and very naturally the county officials are anxious for the most commodious location possible.
