The permission Of the Superior court for an extension of the optional contract on several mining claims and improvements in the White Picacho mining district. a part of the estate of Guadalupe Bernal, deceased, was asked in a petition filed yesterday by II. Wm. Stevens, administrator of the estate. The date for hearing the peti- tion was set for June Sth.

At the expiration of this time, alleges Stevens, an extension oi three years was allotted. Stevens claims that annual assessment work has been done and improvements made on the claims each year, but that no discovery of ore bodies has been made to justify s. s. Brooks, who holds the option. in purchasing the property The optional contract has been assigned to the White Cloud Mines Company and that corporation, says Stevens, is anxious to have the contract extended three years.

RAILROADS WILL
 BRING BOOZE TO ARIZONA
(From Saturdays Dailv.)

Under the personal use" decision of the State Supreme court, various kinds of drinkablc of amber hue, com monly known as booze, will be ac' ccpted for shipment into Arizona by railroads. according to authoritative reports from Phoenix. Thousands ol Arizonans who have been running around with their tongues ranging out and longing for a quart of "good ol Bud" are receiving the news with whoops of joy.
 Railroad officials refuse to discuss the subject. but Dame Rumor has been gossiping quite bit lately, and she claims that all roads running into Arizona will soon accept anything marked personal use" The railroads were rather dubious of the court s decision at first but are reported to be gradually coming around and willing to carry the stuff that MT. Bacchus used to use in his entertain ments about 5.678 E. C.
 The action of the railroads in car rying personal use" freight will not be opposed, according 10 the reports. but it will not be considered good form for any one man to order more than carload of the wet stuff for personal usc.'

 The legal emancipations of women are coming fast; the rapidity or her further educational emancipation rests with herself.
 Now it is partial-the recognized professions she may enter-and th<se will always invite a small minority Of women. It is for woman to make one great occupation of woman's pro fession, and to see that the highest education trains those who shall con tribute toward the development of {. better generation.
 The greatest avocation constantly requiring the unsparing service ot millions of women is the rearing O! the household The most universal and essential of employments, it re mains the most neglected by science "a neglect long hidden behind tradI- ton and scntimentallty.
 Can women of the higher education do less than undertake to put an end to this neglect, to begin to place the study and research directly at the service of the cult of the family and to start forward on paths by which the most important calling in the world shall gradually acquire profes- sional statust
 The highest education Of women then, 1 wish to define in the terms oi the needs of our own time. as train ing in original research applied to the life and interests of the family

GIVING THE
 LEAST FOR WAR VICTIMS

The nationwide appeal for funds for the relief of the innocent sufferers by the war in Europe and Asia issued by the Federal Council of the Church. es of Christ in America contains a statement of the facts in regard to the American efforts at relief which shows that they contrast poorly with those of other nations. It says in part:
 "The Belgian minister of finance stated recently that our country mas given seven millions directly to Bel gium. In other words only seven cents per capita; while New Zealand, bearing its own war burdens, has given a dollar and a quarter per cap ita to Belgium relief. England, stag gering under the war load, has receiv- ed and cared for thousands of Bel gian refugees, and given millions ot pounds beside.
 "It was thought that the United States, the only great nation untouch- ed by the war. might furnish the food supplies for Belgium, but the com mission was obliged to ask food from the whole world to save Belgium from starvation. It must be remembered also that the gifts to Belgium from our country include the large contri- buttons from our philanthropic foun- dations. so that the total of popular contributions is smaller than 1t ap pears.
 "The American Serbian relief com mittee has raised about S260,00O. The British Serbian relief committee three months ago had raised million and half pounds (S7.50OOO0) and France two million francs (S400,OO0).
 "To the Armenians we have given about Sl for each sufferer. covering the entire period. and this is largely money from two or three large givers. It mas not touched our people as 9 whole.
 "This is pretty fair indication of the way war relief is being contribut- ed in other countries beside America. It should be said that the Jews of America have given well in aid of their people generously.
 "In answer to our inquiries an of- icer of the Belgian relief committee reports that the total money gifts from this country to April l, l9l6. to all of the war sufferers was S23,740.- 342. Since these gifts were compiled, the Belgian committee alone has re- ceivcd somewhere around Sl25.0OO through the efforts of the Daughters of the American Revolution in cele- bration of King Albert's birthday. Of course the sums mentioned do not include the vast amount of work per formed by different societies, organi- zations, groups of women, etc, who devote a great amount of their time 10 providing all sorts of surgical ne cessities. No price has ever been put on this material It is merely shipped to ono of the Allied countries"

(From Saturday. Daily.)

F. ]. Temple, of Boulder. Colo, who returned on Wednesday from Globe, to look after his mining inter. ests in this field, states that the mag nitudc Of that copper field cannot be appreciated unless one is on the ground. He witnessed one train leav- ing that camp with bullion. that had a valuation of over Sl,O00OO0. The scene in that camp is like until carly days of q silver boom, but the copper situation is far more healthier for the future, this character of mining being generally based on permancncy.

LIVELY PROGRAM
 PRESENTED BY DENTISTS
(From Saturdays Daily)


 The Chamber of Commerce lunch con at the Yavapai Club yesterday noon was easily the liveliest and mer- riest of any given so far. Every speech was snappy and full of lite and the 'eats" were of the best. The program was in charge of Prescott dentists and Drs. Blain, Roper and Hartzell were given credit for the success of the hour.
 Judge Smith, chairman of the lunch con committee, announced that pro grams for the next two months have already been arranged, each luncheon to be given over to one of the pro fessional and business interests of the city. The dentists yesterday started out the new program in fine shape. If the luncheons to follow equal yester- days, the dining room at the club will be packed every time.
 Dr. Roper kept the diners in roar of laughter by his humorous descrip- ton of the difficulty he and his broth CT dentists had encountered in decid- ing which should make the first speech of the day.
 When I heard that the dentists were to have charge of the program" said Dr. Roper, "I decided that any speaking honors should be mine. l visited Dr. Hartzell and told him that I would like to make the first speech .oday, but he informed me that ii there were any speeches to be made he would make them. We could not agree on the matter and so went to Dr. Blain and told him of the trouble Instead of picking one of us, Dr. Blain announced that he would mako the speech. This made matters worse and we decided to let the most hand some man make the speech. When we counted votes we found that each of us had one vote. And then Drs Hartzell and Blain retired gracefully and left the honor to me"
 The official speech for the dentists was made by Dr. Blain. The doctor had an unusually large store of new stories on hand and told them in a most amusing manner. There IS a well-founded belief that dentists often tell their victim joke, and then when the listener is laughing, gently shove high-powered tooth-puller into his mouth and remove any particular molar or eye-tooth that is giving trouble. If this he true. Dr. Blain could have extracted hundreds oi teeth yesterday while his listeners laughed.
 Judge O. J. Baughn, of the Superior court of Pinal county, was the guest of honor. Judge Baughn was also in humorous mood and for Is minutes talked of dentists. Prescott and cii- mate, weaving the three subjects to- gether in a clever manner.
 The climate of Prescott has no equal in the world. it is the best thai can be found anywhere" said Judge Baughn, adding: Excepting during the last three days
 That the Chamber of Commerce luncheons arc becoming more popular each time was shown by the fact that O persons attended yesterday. Both residents and visitors are also awak- ening to the fact that attendance is not limited to the members of the chamber, but open to everyone.
 The next luncheon, June 9th, will be in charge of local mining men, William P. De Wolf acting as chair man of arrangements.

DUPONT COMPANY MAY
HAVE PAY DAY EVERY DAY
ing onc-Twelfth of Eorce
Zach Day.

Hopeweil Va, Jan. 13.---Iit Is IN
jerstood that the Dupont Company
has under consideration the establish
ment of a daily pa day In Hopewell
for the employees OF the big gun cot
ton works.
This plan Is said to have been prac-
tically decided upon, and that the
semi-monthly pay day will be aban-
doned. Under the proposed plan II is
said that one-twelfth of the employees
will be given their cash daily. This
means that approximately $500 men
employed in the works will receive
their pay eVesy day,
OF course, 1t il not supposed for a
moment that each man will be paid
for a single days labor. Each man In
his turn will receive his pay check
covering twelve days Of service. but
instead OF paying 2o.oo men twice a
week the payroll Will be divided SO as
to relieve the consested conditions on
the banks, the trains and the business
houses such as prevail at the regular
payday periods.
II has also been suggested that this
method will solve the question OF fur
Their payroll padding by dishonest EN-
ployes, as greater attention could be
given TO the names and identifica-
tons CT men employed in the plant.
There is no doubt that il would be
godsend not onls- to the business
men of Hopewell, but of Petersburg
and Richmond as well. Tt would re-
lieve the congested conditions Of the
banks. railroads. stores. postoffices
and other lines of business such as are
