PICKRELL TELLS
 OF LITTLE DAISY
Special Correspondence.

SpcClal OOrrcSpOnucnCc-
 JEROME, June 30.-Report of the daily shipping of five to eight car loads of ore a day by the Little Daisy mine, was given out by A. J. Pickrcll, general manager of the mine, of Prescott Pickrcll was quite opti- mistic as to the ore body outlook after visiting the mine. The orc which is being shipped to Douglas for smelling is part development and part regular mine output.
 That some of the ore is running 40 and 90 per cent and even small quan- titles are assaying higher, was an other remark of Pickrelrs. The gen eral average of ore, however, is much lower.
 The 1,400-foot level is not thor oughly developed yet according to the manager but this work is going on as fast as possible. With every foot of development the richness of the mine becomes more marked in the estimate of Pickrell and his asso- ciates here.
 The mine manager denied the state ments of a possible consolidation Of the United Verde, the Extension, and the Jerome Verde by the Anaconda people.

TRIBUTE ID CIVIL WAR

A. J. JUDD, LONG IN CIVIL
 LIFE, IS WANTED ON
 FIRING LINE BY THE
 CHIEF QUARTERMASTER
(From Saturdays Daily)

A. J. Judd, d Civil war veteran, and for many years a resident of this city. IS the recipient of an unusual mark of recognition from the war de- partment at Washington, in the form of a personal request from the chief quartermaster of the U. s. army, to report at San Antonio, Texas, to again enter the service, if he desires, and become attached to the quarter master department.
 Mir. Judd stated yesterday that he is nearing his S0th year. and for physical reasons will be unable to comply. This tribute to his past military career dates back to over third of a century ago, when he was attached to this special line of duty. Mir Judd first entered the army in the ranks in 1862, and in later years was assigned to the quartermaster service.
 q wish I had the old-time vigor to again go on the firing line to help out the boys in blue in keeping the larder well filled up and the comrades in good fighting fettle, like in the long ago." he informed many friends yesterday.

GUS VOGE SERIOUSLY IF
 NOT FATALLY INJURED
(From Saturdays Daily.)

Gus Voge, line foreman of the Ari- zona Power Company, was horribly if not fatally burned at Jerome yes terday afternoon at about 200 o'clock. while making adjustments to the pri- vately owned telephone line of the company.
 The accident occurred fn a sub station, and 1t is presumed that a loose telephone wire came in contact with the high tension current of the power line, creating short circuit, and enveloping Voge instantly in a huge sheet of flame. \ few minutes later the accident was discovered, and the first aid crew of the United Verde mine was on the scene to render assistance. He was taken at once to the company's hospital. All his clothing had been burned from his body. and he was delirious, inSi- eating that his sufferings were in- tense. At 500 o'clock yesterday aft ernoon his condition was reported by a United Verde physician as seri- ous, the supposition prevailing that when enveloped in the huge sheet of flame Vogc inhaled it. The flesh from his body also commenced to drop off, having been literally cook ed.
 His wife resides in this city, and with her sister, Miss Opal Creekmur, left immediately for Jerome in auto. after being advised of the accident.
 At 9:3O o'clock last night a tele- phone message from Jerome was somewhat reassuring for his recov- cry, according to the statement made by physicians, although it will take two or three days to determine the nature of his injuries. He had re- gained consciousness and conversed with his wife who reached his side at about 900 o'clock last night.

Special Correspondence.
 JEROME, June 2S-W. w. Thom- as. an arrival from Vancouver. B. C., is here in the interests of the Alingus Copper Company. which owns prop erty in this district which will soon become active after several years in activity. He was preceded by his brother of Los Angeles. Both are in the field.
 About 4.OO0 feet of development work has been done on the AIingus which lies beyond the Copper Chief. In opening up the property once more. the company finds it has shafts 460. 360. 150 feet in depth and one tunnel. besides drifts and cross-cuts.
 Thomas is interested in copper min ing in British Columbia and he says although there are good copper mines in his home district there are none having such high grade ore bodies as those in the Verde district. British Columbia copper ore bodies average 2.2 per cent, according to Thomas.
 In speaking of the warlikc tenden- cics ;n the Western Hemisphere, he said that over 25,000 recruits from the territory including the cities of Van couver and Victoria with total popu- lation of 100000 had enlisted in the Allied army. Mining in the district has not been injured by the war in Europe but mine promoters are un able to float stocks.
 The Thomas interests propose to enter the Verde field in most active manner, taking their old holding, the Mingus property, as the scene for first operations.

 PETITION FOR SCHOOLS
iFrom Thursdays Daily.l


 The recent remarkable development of the mining industry in the county has resulted in bringing a serious problem before County Superintend- ent of Schools w. Curtis Miller- how to care for the education of the sons and daughters of miners.
 Three years ago the Dewey school had one teacher, Humboldt three. Mayer two and Crown King one.

Last year new districts were formed on Sycamore creek, near Mayer and on Yarber Gulch. near Dewey. New districts nave been established already this year at Blue Bell. Ocatilla and Middleton and petitions are in from Stoddard and Henrietta.
 Superintendent Miller was request ed several days ago 10 visit the Stod- iard and Henrietta camps with a view of establishing schools there this Fall.
 q found both camps in flourish irg condition" said Miller yesterday. At the Henrietta camp more than 80 men are employed by the company and 20 children are ready to attend school. The Huron postoffice IS lo- cated at this camp and more than l40 people receive mail there. Superin- tendent Brebilock told me that work at the Henrietta was being done pure ly along development lines and block ing out ore and that the latter work was measuring up fine.
 "At Stoddard I found camp that rad all the earmarks of permanency. The new fotation milling plant is sit uated near the intersection of two draws. the Stoddard mine being up enc of them a short distance and the Copper Queen mine about the same tlSlduCC up luC OliNi- -hSll run tAi~ camp are experimenting the construction of the new plant. Bins are being erected that will hold 400 tons from each mine and every thing is handled by gravity from the time the ore leaves the mine until the are loaded in trucks. Contractor Snider is building low per cent grade road from the mill to Mayer and five big teams are to b. found daily hauling in machinery and supplies 10 this camp.
 Both camps are growing rapidly and l believe that it will not be long before the county will have to provide. ample educational facilities for the boys and girls whose fathers are em 3loyed by these companies and others n that vicinity"

record yesterday in this city. the final closing of the deal for the holdings of George w. Hull in that field has been consummated, in which the Unit cd Verde Copper Company and Chas. W. Clark acquire all interests of the seller in and to the Hull Copper Com pany, the Cleopatra Copper Company, and outlying interests covered by wat CT rights and town :ots in Jerome.
 Deeds for the property had been in escrow since April, 1915, and were finally released only a few days ago, or during the recent trip to Jerome ol cx-Senator Clark
 According to authentic information given at the time of the escrow trans action, when negotiations started, the holdings affected in this deal are val ucd at nearly S1.00OOOO. The princi- pal assets in the transaction are the Hull and the Cleopatra mines. both properties adjoining on the south the United Verde. Development on bota Las been performed and q continua- ton of the mineral zone of the United Verde is but a fair conclusion to draw to support such a heavy deal being closed up.
 Another important matter linked to the deal is that the realty holdings of Mir. Hull in that region are similarly affected as arc his mine holdings. Al his land interests aside from individ ual sales heretofore made in the Town oi Jerome, pass into the new purchas- ing channels thereby giving them ab- solute control of that municipal cor poration. By way of a coincidence, since the sale has been ratified and closed up. reports are also current in Jerome that the United Verde will al cnce increase its smelter and mine force by an additional 800 employees, thereby indicating that an elaborate operating program has been decided upon. Aside from the amount of money that is involved in this deal. the dcsirability of the holdings takcH over, in copper rating, all the more adds to the attractive outlook of the Jerome field. The remarkable deter minations made by the United Verde Extension, il is stated, caused the nc eotiations.
