MINER ROBBED AND
 BEATEN BY HOLDUPS

his rough treatment, Vincent was not rendered unconscious and, following the escape of the robbers in the dark ness, he sought medical aid. Brown and Kent offered no resistance and were unharmed by the bandits.
 Vincent is certain that the highway men, knowing he possessed the large amount of money, had been watching his movements about town and that his walk along the dark road afforded them the opportunity to rob him they had been waiting. Upon descriptions furnished by Vincent, Deputy Sheriff Williams arrested one suspect last night and lodged him in the county jail. Vincent says he could identify the robbers if brought face to face with them. He will probably take look this morning at the suspect held in the county jail.

six feet broken by the drills run ming as high as $50 per ton and the average well up into good mill values. Shaft sinking was resumed and the shaft is now well into the vein at 470 feet. The quartz is ten feet in width and assays $13.88 per ton. An ore bin has been built at the Aztec shaft and preparations made to transport the ore to the mill by auto trucks whenever it may be needed. Eventually it is probable that an aerial tramway will be constructed.
 The Aztec workings are about one mile southeast of the main working shaft and mill. Intervening between the Bald Eagle workings and the main workings is the Gray Eagle claim which also has possibilities as the home of a treasure house.
 
 In the older workings of the Tom Reed conditions are excellent and there is no difficulty in supplying the mill with 14O tons per day. What is known in Tom Reed nomenclature as the No. 8 oreshoot has been opened on the 14O0 foot level for a distance of 75 to 100 feet and is being stopped for a width of five to six feet, pro- ducing ore of good mill values. Lenses encountered in the mine and the rich CT ore is fed in with that of lower grade, bringing the average mill feed of high grade ore are not infrequently up to about $15 per ton. The mill is treating 14O tons per day.
 4 significant feature of Tom Reed development is the fact that the ore bodies have not been exhausted at 14OO feet, proving that the big veins of the Oatman district are deep-seated. There are lean places, it is true, and places where the ore channel con tracts, but the average size and average values are unusual and found in few gold fields anywhere.

COMMERCIAL ORE Is
 STRUCK IN GOLD BACK
CFrom Chloride Heraldl

The drift recently started on the 15O-foot level of the Gold Back is now in nine feet and a three-foot vein of ore ore assaying from $11.36 to S19.55 has been encountered. This vein is re- ported to be widening with every round of shots. Its best values are gold and silver, but the last assays showed that it also carried copper to the value of $1.25. It is concentrating ore, and upon the completion of two nearby mills may be treated locally at a profit.
 Both the Copper Age and Steffy mills, now being built, are but a short distance from the Gold Back and the Gold Back management declares in addition to this that if the property produces a quantity of ore warranting such a move, a mill will be built on the Gold Back property.

BOSTON, Mass, Dec. 21.-Resolu- from the German government of its intention with regard to Ireland were passed tonight by the executive coun- cil of all affiliated branches in greater Boston of the Friends of Irish Free dom.
 The resolutions set forth the claim that Ireland has fully established her right to be regarded as an ally of Germany" and ask that no peace agreement be signed by Germany with England, "until the freedom of Ire land is guaranteed"
 A copy of the resolution was sent to Secretary of State Lansing with a request that he transmit it to the Ger man ambassador at Washington.

SUGAR BEET GROWERS
 REGISTER BIG KICK

MILPITAS, Cal, Dec. 21. - Sugar beet growers in this section, dissatis- fled with what they declare is a slow return for their crops in the face of increased sugar prices, appealed to Harris Weinstock, state market di- rector, today to investigate their diff faculties and aid them in getting higher prices. The letter to the nlaz- ket director was signed by 10 growers cultivating 800 acres of land.
 At present, according to Allen N. Standish, one of the growers, sugar companies are paying S5.50 a ton for their beets testing 15 per cent sugar. A ton of sugar beets, he said, would make 300 pounds of sugar, which the refneries sell at wholesale for SIS.
 The Nevada-Utah Sugar company, Standish said, pays s7 a ton for it's beets but this company, he said, is not in California.
 Standish has sent out an appeal to beet sugar men to form an organiza- tion.

HUGHES ARIZONA
 STRIKES COPPER
 ASSAYING SI35
tFrOm Chloride Herald)

The prediction of E. Martin Thor niley has come true and the tunnel be- ing run on the Copper Hill claim of the Hughes-Arizona is in the ore. Mr. Thorniley said that this tunnel would encounter the ore in the smaller veins at distance of 300 feet, and almost to the foot his statement has been veri- fled. For the last 200 feet stringers and small ore shoots have been coming up into the bottom of the tunnel, but no ore of consequence was cut into until last week, when it was announced that the tunnel was breaking into good ore. At the present time the en- tire face is in copper ore ana shots put in on either side of the tunnel did not disclose any dimunition of the ore body. The thrilling feature of the big find is the sensational values contained in copper and silver. An average across four feet assays slightly more than $50 per ton. In the center of the face there is a streak of high grade, 12 to IS inches wide, that assays $135 in copper, 78 ounces silver and one-haf ounce gold per ton. This ore is a chalcopyrite, the heavy silver content giving the yellow sulphides the ap- pearance of old gold.
 The tunnel will be continued anoth- CT 800 feet before cross cutting is started for the big ledge. In the mean time the present strike will be ex- plored with crosscuts in each direction to determine it's size.

PROSPERITY OF J. $.
 SHOWN IN REPORT

CHEYENNE, Wyo., Dec. 21.-The effect of the European war on Amer ican business is shown in the biennial report of Frank L. Houx, secretary of state, submitted to Gov. John B. Ken drick today. Secretary Houx points out that the first year of the biennial period, filing of corporation papers fell off materially, but stated that general prosperity throughout the country the last twelve months had offset the slump in that respect, .ad- ding:
 "The return of more stable financial conditions, with clearer understand ing of the federal laws, has been ac- companied by an increase in the cor poration business of the office"
 Fees collected from automobiles lie enses in the two years amounted to S55, 5,062, the report shows. Total re- ceipts of the office were $107,S16.15, an increase of S24,473.S6 over the pre- ceding biennial period
 From Oct. 1, 1914, to Sept. 30, 1916, total of 1,787 corporation papers were filed, as against 2,265 for the preceding two years.
 The report recommends enactment of laws that will encourage the in corporation of business concerns in the state, but contains a note of warning

conditions. That the work finally has been carried to a point that makes sure the existence of a hugh deposit of gold ore is demonstrated by the action of the directors, who have authorized Superintendent Rabb to start con- struction of an addition to the mill which will double the capacity of the present reduction works. The new unit, which will increase the capacity to 250 to 300 tons per day, will be completed in six months and the com pany will then be able to treat large tonnage of ore averaging around SIP to S15 per ton at a handsome profit Mine and mill costs in the old mill, which employs stamps in chushing, are under S6 per ton and this cost will be materially lessened with the new ma chinery in operation. In fact, it is not improbable that $5 ore will be treated at a profit.
 President Moerdyke and Vice Presi- dent Mushrush spent the week at the mine and examined all the workings. They left firm in the conviction that the Tom Reed is entering an era in it's history that will long be remem- bered by the stockholders because of its production and high earnings. President Moerdyke states that the orebody has been proven from the Bald Eagle shaft in a southeasterly direction for HOO feet to a point well beyond the Aztec shaft. The Bald Eagle shaft workings at a depth of 200 feet cut 33 feet of vein matter, of which 26 feet is quartz assaying S9 to $1O per ton. Before this work was done a shaft was sunk on the Black Eagle claim 1500 feet distant and a crosscut driven to the east in tersecting the vein in the Aztec Cen tral s. E.. claim. Here at a depth of 400 feet a drift was driven back to- ward the Bald Eagle shaft. This drift soon entered a shoot of good ore in a big, strong vein. A shaft was then started near the center of the Aztec Center claim, which sidelines the Bald Eagle, known as the Aztec shaft, which now is the center of operations. At a depth of 400 feet crosscut from the Aztec shaft entered the vein and was extended to the foot wall through IS feet of ore. The first twelve feet on the hanging wall side of the vein averaged $S.50 per ton, the six feet on tn foot wall, s14.50. A drift was drivn along the footwall for $50 feet, face samples across the
