MIAMI MINES ARE
 A CHANGE DISCOVERY
(From Sundays Dallyl

14lOAA OhlAdy OoiAJJ
 For many years during the early history of the Globe district, the red iron stained hills in what is now Miami mad been noticed, but there was no precedent for seeking values in such a formation, and no one had thought them worth locating.
 However, late in 1906, Fred As dorf, young mining engineer, who was in the district looking for oppor, tunities, examined the hills and con cluded that there was a strong possi- bility for the existence of a large body of low grade copper ore under the iron stained croppings. There were certain conditions similar to the few known so-called "porphyry de posits," but there were also essential differences. However, he obtained an option to purchase.
 At the Dominion hotel few even ings later, MT. Alsdorf met J. Park Charming, consulting engineer for the General Development Company, who was in the district negotiating for the Inspiration claims, which he rejected, as he considered the price excessive. Being in receptive mood, he heard MT. Alsdorf's story and the following day went over to see the claim. Con cluding that there was fair chance, he obtained the option for his com pany.
 Aggressive development work was then started, but with disappointing results. The Captain shaft showed on 70 feet of 2 per cent ore; the Red Rock shaft went 190 feet with no sign of ore. MT. Charming was very much discopraged, then gave orders to cross-cut at that depth in further search of ore. He then left for New York. Alsdorf, after putting in 20- foot stump, noticed change in the formation and continued sinking on his own responsibility, although it was contrary to orders, and ten feet deep CT and the great Miami ore body was discovered. Things then started to move, and in five years the property had developed from a prospect with out pound of ore in sight to one of the worlds greatest copper producing mines, producing almost 3,00OOOO pounds of copper per month, at a little over 8 cents per pound.

 BURGLARY
(From Tuesdays Daily.)


 Floyd Allen arrived at the county jail Sunday in charge of Deputy Guy Bozarth to serve a term of six months for attempting to break into the store of the Ash Fork Mercantile Company last week. Allen, who was brought south as far as Valley by Deputy Fred Bartlett, was also ar rested by him on the charge and brought before Justice John E. Eager berg at Ash Fork.

As Allen mas not paid the fine he will probably serve out the $500 by an additional l50 days.

MANY ARE PAYING NEW

Oklahoma City, Okla, July 10.-The
state highway department has secured
the loan of additional help for the next
few weeks from several other depart
ments of the state government. This
became necessary, owing to the rush
of automobile and motor vehicle own
ers to pay their horsepower tax under
the new law. The office of Colonel
Leecraft, highway commissioner, is
crowded with business and the collec-
tions are very heavy. So far there has
been no attempt to test the constitu-
tionallty of the law in the courts, al
though there have been rumors that
this will be attempted. The first sup
ply of automobile tags received were
exhausted the first day they were in
the office. A car load that is on the
