STRIKE SULPHIDE ORE
 ZONE IN FAIRVIEW
[From Fridays Daily.)

Arriving "Wednesday from the Fair view mining camp, near Crown King, John Anderson, in charge of develop ment, stated that the tunnel had en- tered the sulphide zone.
 "The paystreak is 25 inches in width, and was hit few days ago in the face of the 240-foot tunnel, at a vertical depth from surface croppings or approximately 100 feet" Anderson said. Preceding this zone being en- tered there was a tremendous flow of water tapped. and candles were in' stantly extinguisned. This was a forerunner of a favorable change talk ing place in development. The ore is of massive construction, and will also pan freely The values are main ly gold, and assays show S35 to the ton. With the tunnel driven to the south end line of the Fairview there will be 400 feet of backs, with the Nelson workings lined up. l con slider the Fairview as a very attractive proposition and the character of its sulphides would indicate permanency at great depth"
 Ed. Block, owner of the mine stat cd that development would be rusned in view of the showing. He said that production would not be given, but a straightout line of development be performed. I feel perfectly inde- pendent now to handle the Fairview as I see fit, and my efforts hereafter in mining will be mainly directed to- ward making it mine. The showing is good and am very much pleased"

MAKING GOOD IS
 FAMED OLD BONANZA
(From Fridays Dailvl

The first product of gold bullion from the Warrior, valued at nearly S4,0O0, from mill run made recently, was received during the week by the Bank of Arizona, and forwarded yesterday to the mint at San Francisco. Nothing was learned as to the tonnage treated. but many resident stockholders expressed them selves as decidedly well pleased over development and sanguine that future mill runs will repeat the early pro ductive record which this property attained over twenty years ago.
 The tonnage milled was i:om the old Bonanza claim. where develop mont mas been under headway for several months, and was produced from drifting on the fifth and sixth levels, with no stoping whatever be- ing given. The fact of development affording such handsome bullion re- turn and with heavy tonnage in re serve and ready for stoping, is indi- cative of the property being ready to assume its old time rating, after ex- pioratio1 reaches the point mapped out.
 Said shareholder yesterday: "The property has now passed the expert. mental stage and development per formed proves that ore resources are ample to run the mill for many months. Another feature of the Bon anza which pleases me is that its de- vclopment has been centered for months toward reaching great depth, and this product coming from the lowest levels is weighed as very i'm portant matter so far as future possi- bilities of production are to be con. sidered. Deep development has scored signally on the Little Daisy, at Jerome. the Blue Bell at Mayer, the DeSoto in the Bradshaws, the Nelson at Crown King, and the old Bonanza in the Harqua H1las, is making good that principle of oper- ating. It is my belief the Bonanza is on the road back to its old-time rating"
 The Yuma Warrior holdings are un- der the direct management of H. Wm. Stevens, president, who has been or the ground for several months, and is personally directing operations.

LEGAL VICTORY WON
 BY PAUL BURKS
(From Saturdays Daily.)

Although O. A. Eshom sought Sl0O0O damages from the Atchiso1, Topeka & Santa Fe Ky. Co.,, for ar, alleged assault made upon him by a special officer of the company, he was awarded but Sl00 by a jury in the United States District court yester day afternoon. The case has occu- pied the time of the Federal cour' for the last two days. Eshom alleged that on August 2l, 1915, he was bru,- ally, and without cause, assaulted al the Santa Fe station at Needles by Harold Scholes, deputy constable in the employ of the railway company.
 The testimony of almost every wis- ness was favorable to the railway. Several testified that Eshom was un- der the influence of liquor at the time Scholes attempted to remov, him from the station platform an1 Eshom himself admitted, while on the witness stand yesterday, that he hal been drinking during the day on which the trouble occurred.
 Attorneys for both sides finiSncl their arguments at noon and the jury retired at about } o'clock. Two and one-half hours later they returned their verdict to the court. Attorney F.. s. Clark represented Eshom and the Santa Fe's defense was handled by Paul Burks.
 The masterly presentation of the issues to the jury. it is believed, in T large measure influenced the verdict, which is considered not only victory for the railroad, but personal one for Burks and a tribute to his hand ling of the case. Local attorneys ant others congratulated Mir. Burks On his argument. which they said was the finest appeal to jury heard i1 . Yavapai court room for long time.

FRONTIER DAYS
 CELEBRATION DATES SET
(From Fridays Daiiy.)

Prcscott's Frontier Day celebration will be held this year on July 4, 5, 6 and and indications are that it will be one of the best ever held, accord ing to a report made at the Chamber of Commerce meeting last night by F.. A. Kastner, in charge of the celc- bration.
 Although the weather prevented many of the members from .attending the meeting, several matters for the general benefit of Yavapai county were taken up and acted upon. In d letter which was read to the cham Der, H. Van Rennselaer Chase, efficl- ency and standardization expert oi San Francisco, stated that he had chosen Prescott as one of 25 cities of which he will snow stereopticon views during a tour this year of the United States and Canada. He re quested that several slides of particu- larly interesting views in and about Prescott be sent him for this pur- pose. This will be done.
 Favorable action also was taken regarding the request of the Daily Financial America, a New York pub lication, for news items sent out by the chamber The chamber was as sured that there would be no charge made for publishing the articles and frat Yavapai county would be given a liberal amount of publicity.
 Prescott and vicinity will be well represented in etchings on the silver service to be used on the battleship Arizona. In response to letter from the firm of Reed & Barton, Tauto1, Mass, which is preparing the silver set, it was agreed last night 10 send several pictures. as requested, to be reproduced on the silver.

PINE LUMBER SALES
 BRING IN BIG SUM
(From Fridays Daily.)

Figures compiled by the district forester at Albuquerque show a total production of lumber in Arizona in 1915 of 75,OOOOO0 board feet. Similar figures for New Mexico show a total of 66,OOO,OOO feet. In addition, some 2S,O00,0O0 feet of lath and shingles were produced in the two States last year. Fifty-fve mills were reported as in operation.
 Ninety-seve1 per cent Of the lum- Der produced was Western yellow pine and 2.7 per cent Douglas fir. The remainder consisted of almost neg ligible quantities of white fir, spruce, and oak. the latter rather curiosity since generally speaking no mcr- chantable oak timber exists in the Southwest Nevertheless 1000 feet of oak logs. apparently big enough to cut, were found in Arizona, and brought $40 per thousand. the record price for saw lumber in either State.
 The average valuation of yellow pine lumber at the mill was Sl5.49, giving the total production of pine a value of $2,000000.

GOVERNMENT MEN HELD
 FOR SHAVING OF INDIAN
CFrom Saturdays Daily.)

AA AOiA SotNAIa9 De-Af+I Walter Runke. superintendent O. schools on the Western Navajo In dian reservation, and three of his en- ployes, Ashley Wilson, E. Nash ant D. M. Robertson, will have to stand trial i1 the Federal court as the re suit of the Federal grand jury's in vestigation into the staying of TadGy Tin, a Navajo, on the reservation January 26. The indictment was re- turned late Thursday afternoon, just before the grand jury was discharged. After the regular session of the Fed eral court, the four men were ar raigned, entered pleas of not guilty and were given into the custody ot U. s. Marshal Joseph P. Dillon.
 After conference yesterday after noon between United States atto- neys who will prosecute the case, the bail of each of the four defendants was placed at $5,0OO. The attorney for the defendants sought to have them released on their own recog nizance for a few days, but this en- deavor proved unsuccessful. Runkle was able to secure bail. Ashley, Nash and Robertson were remanded to tn, custody of Sheriff Young and are held in the county jail here.
 The four defendants in the case have been in constant attendance a, the session of the district court since Monday, as have been several Indians from the reservation who were sum mo1ed as witnesses. The government men were confident that the grand iury's inquiry would result in their being exonerated of any responsibil ity for the death of Taddy Tin. Tin was shot by one of the men, it is ar legged, when they had been sent by Superintendent Ru1ke to the Indian. home to learn why the latter had re- fused to send his children to school on the reservation.
 The incident aroused national inter est by the fact that other Indians or the reservation aroused over Tim IOdlhs odlu lO ldNO eNi' uprising, this plan being abandoned only when Federal officers who were summoned, placed the three employ ees of Runke under arrest and took them to Flagstaff, where they waivel trial and were bound over to thc Federal grand jury.
 It is doubtful if the case will be tried during the present session oi the District court here. as the de fense wishes plenty of time to pre- pare its case. The court calendar for the session at Phoenix, which WI follow the closing of the term here, is almost filled, and the case may be continued until the September terri of the court in Prescott.
 All of the men have refused to give their side of the case while in Pres colt, but intimated that there was much important testimony favorabi. to them which had not been made public.
