HIDDEN GOLD IS THE
 OBJECT OF HIS QUEST
(From Wednesdays Daily


 Patrick Derry, who had been in this section for over year, quietly con- ducting a prospecting of certain local ities for supposed hidden wealth, left a few days ago for Southern Cali fornia, stating that he would remain away until next Spring, when he would return to continue exploration.
 Behind the mysterious movements of this man, who is said to have travelled all the way from Kinsale, Ireland to solve the mystery of miss- ing gold supposed to have been each ed in this locality as long ago as 1859, is linked that movement carried out near the Pioneers Home about Is years ago when several thousand dol lars were expended without success rewarding those who prosecuted a thorough system of eXcavating the surface and removing hundreds of large boulders. The reason for this exploration was said 10 be a state ment made by an Irishman in Denver as death was approaching, and to his religious conhdants his story appeal ed as trustworthy.
 Accordingly a few years after his death, the church began the move ment to seek the treasure, said to be valued at about S40,000 in gold dust, recovered from diggings in the cx- treme northeastern section of Ari- zona The flight of three miners was told by the dying man, and the cache was pictured from recollections of the land far away from the source of the wealth The point in this city mentioned answered the description, and operations were conducted there for over seven months without re- suits.
 The coming of Derry last year, and his meanderings in regions near this city, together with his vague manner of stating what his business was, has naturally rekindled interest in the lost treasure. He has been seen ire quently in the Granite Dells section, and to inquirers stated he had pur-

 Jeff Reade, formerly employed by the forest service for his knowledge of wild animals, and who is quite well known in this section as hunter and trapper, writes to friend in Prescott or an encounter he had recently with a mountain lion in the southern part of Mohave county on the Big Sandy river
 He had shot and killed the male, and wounded the female. The latter skulkcd away into ravine and Reade approached the point on his horse The wounded lion immediately got into action, springing from behind a cluster of bushes, and striking with her two front feet the shoulder of the horse, tearing gashes into its chest of over eight inches in length and to ., depth in places of five inches. Readc fired five shots into her body, but in the meantime was struck on the right thigh and badly wounded. His hands also were gashed and his corduroy vest ripped in four places. He used "a Colts automatic pistol, saying that he did not have time to handle a rifle Reade is under medical treatment al Needles

MERRILL PLATED OVER MIDNIGHT
 TEST SHOWING
OLD MINE REVIVED BY PRACTICAL OPERATOR SHOWS BY NEW WORK A BONANZA RATING.
(From Wednesdays Daily.)

So successful has been initial cX- ploration on the Midnight Test mines of Groom creek that larger plan Of operating is to begin forthwith, was the statement made by R. NJ. Merrill few days ago to friends in this city.
 He left yesterday for San Francisco to purchase an equipment by which development is to be rushed in the future An air compressor to drive four drills, and other apparatus is to be installed at an outlay of several hundred dollars. The old workings have been unwatered to below the 300-foot level, and the reopening of the points above that zone is the basis for giving the property an exception al rating by new development, in which silver bearing ore body shows values running to as high as 4OOO ounces to the ton, and averaging over l 600 ounces at other points opened up.
 Mir. Merrill is pronounced in stat ing that the property has proven a surprise, and he bases his belief on a bonanza proposition being in evidence from a conservative standpoint ot reasoning, and without endeavorinG to exaggerate what has been abso- lutely determined Mir Merrill also stated the investment is an individual one, and he is surprised that such ali attractive proposition should have re- mained idle for so many years, when its past history was so well known to many operators of this field.

WONDERFUL ORE
 PLANT IS NOW BUILDING
(From Fridays Daily.)


 The first reduction plant in the United States to be constructed un- derground is that of the Mountain Top Mining Co.,, in Ouray county, Colo. This novel departure in milling ores is of local interest for the req son that A. D. Barnhart, resident of Prescott is a stockholder, while his brother, G. H. Barnhart, in engineer in charge of construction.
 This radical departure from usual methods of treating the product of a mine was decided upon as a neces- sity, owing to unfavorable Winter weather in that region where snow slides render practically impossible the maintenance of mill on the sur face, the only alternatives being a complete suspension of operations during the Winter or the storage Of the ore until Spring. The problem was solved, however, when it was de- cided to put the mill underground, 1000 feet back in the tunnel
 A sectional drawing of the mine and mill arrangement appears in Fi- nancial America, and is provoking na- tion-wide comment in mining circles The mill has a capacity to treat 50 tons of ore per day, and will be in action in a short time. It is situated at a point back in the tunnel. l,096 feet, at vertical depth of 650 feet from the surface. Other equipment is situated at points in of 1000 feet, embracing the ore bin room, crusher room, ball mill room, roughing table room, Notation tank room, pilot room. filter room and other accommoda- tions, all connected, and in successive steps down the incline, thus complet- ing the several processes necessary to bring about the automatic handling and reduction of the product At the top of the raise is an electric hoist that elevates the ore from the tunnel level to the crude ore bin at the top of the incline
 In addition to the mechanical at tachments there are accommodation for the miners, such as are usually noticeable at other camps on the sur face, thereby permitting operations to be practically carried out at all | seasons.
 This move is viewed as one of the ! big triumphs in mechanical ingenuity l and engineers who have viewed the l proposition state success will be the | outcome.

THE OLD GLADSTONE
 HAS STARTED TO MOVE
(From Wednesdays Daily.l

After being idle many years, the old Gladstone mine at McCabe will come to life again today, under deal closed recently by which 1t and the McCabe were taken over short time ago by New York City syndicate. The initial point on which operations will be started is the Gladstone, where quite a force will begin work this morning in overhauling the old boil CTS, repairing machinery, and start un- watering the main working shaft. Mine timbers have been ordered, and an earnest campaign in practical min ing is to be inaugurated. After this work IS done, the McCabe will receive 
 W. C. Thomas. consulting engineer of the new syndicate, will be in charge until the work is complet- cd, when the property will begin nov ing ahead on a substantial basis with a superintendent in charge. The re- viving of these gold mines is occas- ioning very much comment of fav- orable nature throughout that region.

S1 ,50o,OoO CASH
 OFFERED FOR SWANSEA
(From Thursdays Daily.)

At the final meeting in Los Angeles recently of creditors of the Swansea Consolidated Mining Co.,, to take formal possession and operate the property under orders of the Federal court, for the benefit of those inter ested, the proceedings were enlivened by a certified check being presented in the sum of S1, ,5OO,O00 for the owner ship of this copper group which after consideration, was refused.
 This information was given public ity yesterday by resident of Pres colt who returned a few days ago from that city, and had been informed to this effect by a stoc<holder credit or who was attending the meeting al that time. It IS presumed that this tender came from an Arizona copper operator, but his identity was with held Swansea is again active, and Ernest C. Lane has been appointed as general manager. Mir Lane while Swansea was under lease to Judge Thomas, of Denver, was superintend- ent, and during his administration made success which created com ment everywhere, and from which creditors stepped in and petitioned the court in bankruptcy to be given the right to assume charge, which was granted. The transition of this prop erty into a probable dividend payer and the liquidation of a large indeb- tedness, is of local import, as it is stated there are over 30 stockholders creditors residing in Prescott who will be directly benefited by the sue cess anticipated. IL is also stated as an absolute fact that the basis for re- fusing the above huge sum of money is due to new development given by Mir. Lane, from which vast tonnage of good copper grade of ore is as sured.

gas, which are the highest grade pro- ducerS in the United States. The possibility of developing an even richer ore body than either the Unit ed Verde or United Verde Extension at the point where the orc-bcaring schist interscctS the Green Monster vein is ono of the biggest and most important of the company's possi- bilities.
 In fact, the southeastern end of the Jerome district is akin to the outlying portion of Butte, Mont, the world Is most famous copper camp. It is only a question of time when the Jerome camp is further developed and a num- Der of producers have been brought in. Then there will probably be a consolidation of the important prop critics into another huge company similar to the Anaconda Copper Min ing Company. The stockholders of the present United Verde Extension and the other development companies in the camp will then share in the same manner as the fortunate stock holders of Boston & Montana, now one of Anaconda's subsidiaries. These shares were taken into the consolida- ton at price reported to have been S4G0 per share, whereas the stock originally sold at $4 per share.
 While the foregoing possibilities may seem staggering to the layman, they are we'll within the bounds of reason. When Utah Copper was first brought out, not only the mining world at large but conservative busi- ness men scoffed at the idea that the property could ever be worked at a profit, and in consequence the shares were a drug on the market at from SIS to SIS for a long time. It was the success attendant on Utah that gave the incentive for the development of the rest of the porphyry producers of the United States, just as the success attendant on the development of the United Verde Extension has brought capital into the Jerome camp which will undoubtedly develop a number of other producers of equal importance. That other producers will be develop ed in the camp is certainty, and that Green Monster and the adjoining properties will be numbered amongst them there can be little or no ques- ton.
 The Green Monster Mining Com pany has an authorized capitalization of S50,O00, divided into 1,500,000 shares of par value of 50 cents, of which 100000 shares have been is sued, the 3OO,OOO being held in reserve for the acquisition of additional prop erty ,or such use as the directors may see fit to put them to.

NEW COPPER CAMP
 SWINGS INTO ACTION
(From SatrrGaY's DailY.l


 Returning yesterday from the camp of the Wickenburg Copper Mining and Reduction Co.,, near Constellation A. E. Boyce and Burt B. Bloom, prin- cipals of this new movement, stated that mine development had started with small force, and when retim- bering the old shaft is completed a full crew will be placed at work. The building of new wagon road from the lower to the upper camp, two miles in length is going ahead, for freighting in machinery, due to arrive in short time. From observations made in the old workings they are very much pleased, and both state they are sanguine over results to be obtained after plans are carried out by which deep mining is to prevail.

RELIEVES THE WORST
CASES OF CATARRH
Think "HyOmei the Most Wonderful
Treatment for Catarrh Ever
Discovered"

Do not try to cure catarrh by using
sprays or lotions; it cannot be cured
in that manner. The only way in
which this too common disease can be
fully relieved is through direct ap-
plication to the affected parts that
will kill the bacili of catarrh and pre-
vent their growth.
Breathing air of Hyomei is the only
known method of treatment that can
really accomplish this. 1t is the sim
plest, most pleasant, and probably the
most reliable treatment for catarrh
that has ever been discovered.
The complete outfit is inexpensive
and consist of an inhaler, dropper and
sufficient Hyomei to last several
weeks. This will effect instant relief
in ordinary cases, but for chronic and
deep-seated cases of catarrh, longer
use may be necessary, and then an
extra bottle of Hyomei, can be obtain
ed for a trifing sum. 1t is not alone
the best tit might be called the only
method of treating catarrh, but it is
also the most economical.
r. Hodgnis has so much confidence
in teh power of Hyomei to relieve
catarrh, that he will for limited time,
sell this medicine under his personal
guarantee to refund the money if the
purchaser can say that it did not ben

THE GOOD ROADS SCHOOL


From the program offered, it is
clear that not a farmer in Latah
county can afford to miss the good
roads school which will be held at
the university on Wednesday and
Thursday of next week. Farmers
have always known that their COM
fort in transacting business depended
to a vast extent upon the kind of
roads that lie between their farms
and town or warehouse. They have
not always seemed to know that their
actual profits are affected for good
or iii by the condition of the roads.
If the road over which a farmer
must travel is good all the year
through he can deliver goods when
they are wanted. He can be more in
dependent in the choice of the time
to sell. For example many commod-
tiles are rushed to market early in
the fall because later the roads will
be almost impossible and delivery is
either out of the question or too ex-
peDsive. Prospective customers must
sometimes send elsewhere for farm
products because the farmer must de-
lay till a better season the hauling
of his carrots, wood hay, or grain.
The program as outlined will surely
give the persons who attend some
thing to think about and something to
do 1t will inspire the will to do and
furnish directions for the will.
