Some Hay.

The cutting of hay at Round Valley ranch is now under way and it promises to be one of the heaviest crops harvest ed on any dry farm in the country. The mixture of wheat and rye stands close to six feet in night and every stalk appears to be just as tall as it's neigh bor. It is said that more than two and one-half tons will be cut to the acre. MT. Goodwin, who put in the crop, is we'll pleased with his first effort in hay raising for ranch purposes. l. M. George is interested with MT. Goodwin in the ranch and cattle. It is probable that greater acreage of hay will be planted next year.

Pat. TorIey Dies From Operation.

Patrick Torley, who has been mining in this county for some time, died in Los Angeles few days ago, after an operation. He had been ill for some time and was advised that he would have to submit to an operation before his health would improve. Evidently the operation was too severe for his poor physical condition to withstand. He left three wills, but nothing is known here who the benficiaries are, although it is probable that sisters and brothers in Ireland will receive his estate, which amounts to several thou sand dollars.
 About year ago Torley was exten- sively advertised for by a mining com pany operating in the Couer d'Alene country of Idaho, for the purpose of securing stock held by him in the com pany. It appears that he had worked for the company number of years ago, but when the company shut down operation it had no funds to pay off the men. Two or three of them took stock at five cents per share for the debt and then went away and forgot the tran saction. Torley had something over 4,OOO shares of this stock and was offered ]. 1.56$ per share for it, but only sold 12OO$ worth, retaining the balance. This stock is now left to the estate and is considered to be worth about 2$ per share.

Will kinsman Celebrate.

Last Wednesday few of the busi- ness men of Kingman met in the Cham Der of Commerce rooms to discuss the why's and wherefore of a Fourth of July celebration. A committee con- posed of Thomas Devine, R. w. Wilde and c. N. Nickell was appointed. This committee reported that several hun dred dollars had already been subscrib- ed and expressed the belief that the celebration could be pulled off. King man is in most prosperous condition and there are many who believe that it ought to do something toward pro- viding amusement for those of the people who desire to come to town to spend the Fourth. Of course, large factor has been removed in financing Fourth of July celebration when the law closed the saloons, but there are many business houses still here that ought to help the cause along and provide the sineWs.
 On the other hand the business men would like to see the streets of the town graded and oiled and this would be quite burden, when added to the expense of celebration. Yet on the other hand celebration keeps money at home, as if there is no doings here hundreds of dollars will be taken from the town by people who would like to get some amusement out of life. If anything is to be done to aid the com mittee it is time.

The last issue of the Mining and Scientific Press gives a most interest ing article from the pen of T. A. Rickard on the apex Agitation of the Goldfield mining district. The article shows plat of the mines and indicates the trend of the ore bodies. The litigation is about settled, but had it continued to the end it would have been one of the most vexatious suits ever tried in court of law. MT. Rickard, who is an engineer, has studied the apex question of the district, is well qualified to give scientific view of the field. And not only was the apex question at issue, but also the sale of the Velvet claim to Wingfeld by the Merger company, it being alleged by Mrs. Ames that this sale was a steal, the mine going to Wingfeld for 10,000$ when it was alleged to have value of a million.

Kingman will feel rather grateful to the county dads and Major Wright and his assistant for the good work that is being done on Fourth street. The two blocks from Beale to Pine have been graded and are being surfaced with a heavy coat of gravel and will be oiled. Concrete walks will be laid from Front street to the courthouse, the property owners along that thoroughfare and some interested citizens putting up the wherewithal for that work. When completed this street will be one of the finest in the state. Later we expect to see Front street graded and oiled and the right-of-way of the railroad com pany through the town also fixed up and oiled.
 T. E. Pollock and wife of Flagstaff were Kingman visitors yesterday.

The Yuma papers are bragging over the planking of four miles of bottomless sand on the Yuma-San Diego Border land route. A machine made the dis tance, so it is said, in between three and four hours. But the report does not state that with the first sand storm a search party will have to be sent out from Yuma to locate the place where the plank road lies buried. The Sand Dune route will have an awful time convincing people that the travellers lives on that route are as safe as neutral vessel in the North Sea.

achievement in six reels of ID. W..
Griffith. who also produced 'The Birth
of Nation" will be shown at the

and all the stars of "The Birth of a
Nation" are featured in Avenging Con-
science.
Critics all over the country have
raved over Avenging Conscience. Psy-
biologists have found in it much of in
terest, for it is perturbation of con-
sience.
Avenging Conscience. perhaps the
most costly featured photoplay ever
shown here, delights with its flashes of
exquisite beauty, the very essence of
spiritual charm. A moment later it
moves to pity, wonder and horror.
The photography is remarkably clear
as are all Grifiith's productions, and
there is not dull moment in the play.

era in motion picturedom.
Mr.. Griffith, the producer, is univer

picture producer of the world. and
Griffith himself declares that Avenging
Conscience is not only his supreme
achievement. but it is two years ahead
of its time.

LEAGUE WILL POST
PONE CORPORATION

According to Wilmer Sieg, who was
at Yakima last week, where he attend
ed session of the Apple Shippers
League. the organization will not ap-
ply for papers of incorporation until
next February, following a report to
be made by three representatives of
the United States Department of Agri-
culture, who will make q survey of the
apple situation under the joint super
vision of the Department of Markets
and Federal Trades Commission.
"At the instance of practically a uni
versal request from northwestern fruit
men,. says MIR. Sieg, "it has been de-
cided to make this investigation on the
part Of the government. The three
representatives, Messrs. Moomaw, Bas-
sett and Kerr. all of whom are familiar
with the situation and know where to
begin their work, will have completed
their task in time to get out report
by the latter part of winter. OF course
the report will first be sent to Wash
ington, but it will come to our hands
by the latter part of February.
"Up to that time the Shippers
League will lend every facility that
will aid the survey, and after the re-
port is made we will effect our incor-
poraton along the lines that are best
suggested by the report"
MIR. Sieg says that the proposed cent
box tax on apples for next year for
an exploitation of new markets was
touched on very lightly.

Americas little sweetheart, Mary
Pickford, is captivating audiences at
the Electric in her splendid triumph,
"Fanchon the Cricket" the latest five
part production of the Famous Players
Film Co. with this idolized star on the
Paramount program.
As Fanchon, Little Mary portrays

animosity and cruelty of the villagers
who persecute, until she reaches the
greatest heights that woman can at
tain devotion to her lover and her su-
preme sacrifice for his life and happi-
ness.
There are not many dramas produced
on the stage or screen that present such
combination of attractive qualities as
Fanchon. 1t draws true picture of
life under varying colors and aspects
But Throughout. the various environ
ments in which the story develops,
Mary Pickford is as true to the expec-
tations of her admirers as the character
she portrays is to life.
In her unaffected charm and bound
less dramatic power, in her sympathy
compelling rendition of the suffering of
the character she impersonates, ard in
the unconscious simplicity in which she
develops her great climax of sacrifice,
Miss Pickford proves beyond the shad-
ow of doubt her right to the distlnc-
tion of being the worlds most famous
motion picture star.
Supported by an exceptionally chosen
company, of which Lottie and Jack
Pickford, sister and brother of the fa-
nous Mary, Jack Standing, Russell
Bassett, Gertrude Normand and Rich
ard Lee are conspicuous members, Fam
chon the Cricket is as human and ten

sented in the whole history of the
screen.
