 BACK IN THE GAME
By Ernest poualasl

JEROME. Ariz.. Nov. 24.-"Bullfrog Clark has come to Jerome. The man who founded the camp of Bullfrog. sold the Bullfrog Mining companys property to Charles NJ. Schwab for half million dollars. helped to organ lze the Goldfield Kewanas. Tonopah Western and other big Nevada con cerns. is head the Clark Jerome Copper company.
 II. H. Clark is his real name and the one great grief of his life is that he cleared only $470.000 the first eleven months he was in GoIdfield He says that had he not neglected several perfectly obvious opportunities he would have cleared millions.
 After he left Nevada. Clark became manager of the Imperial Valley Farm Lands association. a California synd- ieate. He thought that he was out Of the mining game for good until his old friend, Dr. L. L. Lindsev Of Jerome and Clarkdals. went over to Los Angeles and told him about the big Verde District boom. His feet be- gan to itch and a few days later. he landed in Jerome for general survey.
 As result, Clark took over eigh, claims of B. c. Pilehar's Cowboy group. four miles west of Jerome over the ridge of the Black Hills range. When he tIamDed over the cowboy property and saw n great belt of iron. stained quartz cutting through the lime. he became enthusiastic and clos ed the deal On the spot.
 For year l travelled through South America looking Tor a good cop per proposition" ne remarked. q carried a draft for $2O0. O0O in my pocket all that time but never cashec II. Had l seen anything like this, or a dozen other Verde district properties that draft would have been cashed."
 The Clark Jerome Copper comuany is being organized with a .capitallza. ucn or Sl.poy,JOD, and an equal number Of shares. No stock is to be offered to the pahiic. Clark likes the appear -anee of the Cowboy claims so wen that he is now raising a development fund among his friends.
 It is proba Jle that the first de. velopment work will be a tunnel from the ped of a canyon 10 intersect the principal iron quartz ledge on the property. There are several other guaffz lodges that show more or less copper right on the surface.
 The Cowboy claims lie east and north of the old Yeager Canyon mine. which was taken over less than a month ago hy the Shannon Copper company of Clifton and Morenci. Be- tween 25 and 30 men are employed there now under the direction of superintendent T.. l. Fritschi. They are repairing the machinery. un. watering the principal shalt and other wise preparing to place the Seager on 1 producing basis. This can be done easily as three good veins Of copper ore have been opened and more or less developed. It is claimed tha, these three veins come together in Clark Jerome ground.
 There is a decided trend toward the west end of the district When the present Verde boom began, the first movement was to the south around the Copper Chief A number of the most promising groups in the district were Included in the Verde Combiua- ton and Green Monster. Later came the United Verde. Consolidated, Shea. Verde Chief Extension, Copper Chiei Extension. Grand Island, Jerome Port land, Jerome Pacific and <others, al, With property from one to five miles south of Jerome
