penn. CRUSHES
CORNELL SQUAD
IN EASY STYLE

Philadelphia, Pa, Dec. 1.--Pennsyl-
vania reverted to a football habit OF
long standing, after a lapse of three
years, on Franklin Field here yester-
day, and defeated Cornell by a score
of % to 3.
The forward pass paved the way,
while two blocked punts, the irrepres-
sible Miller and the brilliant Berry
did the rest. The score tells the story.
Pennsylvania was that many points
better than Cornell and about seven
more. -
Franklin Field was jammed, and
close to $4,000 followers Of the two
elevens, and Of course some dyed in
the wool football fans, looked on in
comfort and about three-quarters in
citation. The other quarter was griev-
ously disappointed
Cornell scored within the first two
minutes-on the eleventh play, to be
exact and. the Cornell followers
shouted thunderous approval as Fritz
shiverick drop kicked goal from the
field when standing on the 40-yard
line.
!; Thereafter the joy was all with the
Quakers. The Pennsylvania eleven
came right back and scored a touch
down in nine plays. Glenn Urquhart
being the medium on receiving a for
ward pass. u Howard Berry added a
goal from field in the second period,
while Derr and Miller each scored a
touchdown in the third, to which the
way was opened by the blocking Of
two of Shiverick's puntss Berry Kicked
two goals from touchdown and missed
one.
Pennsylvania clearly outplayed Cor
nell in the line, on the ends and in the
backfeld. The Quakers made few If
any mistakes fof the hands or Of the
head; the men from Ithaca enough to
add to their own confusion.
On top Of the stronger and more
varied attack and more rugged de-
tense which the home team showed
were Henry Miller, ~ super-end yes
terday afternoon, and Howard Berry,
the wonderful back, who stood head
and shoulders above all other players
on the field.
Miller twice recovered the ball on
Shiverick's blocked punts. thus OPEN
ing the door to one touchdown and
scoring another himself He was on
top of every play; he tackled with
deadly sureness; he broke UP play at
ter play launched by Cornell, going to
the runner with sureness and accu-5
racy from in front or from behind; he
took two. long forward passes and
missed only because OF interference
which cost Cornell penalty of Is
yards.
Howard Berry drop kicked one goal
and from q position SO close TO, the
sideline that the undertaking looked
well-nigh hopeless; he punted well
and placed the ball better; he took a
couple of forward passes with clean
ness and despatch; he was a power in
the offense and ever steady on the
defense. The heavy going was against
his usual dashing runs, but he man
aged to shine in other ways, and so
proved his versatility

followers of the sport. His victory

performances since then stamped him
as one of the best hill and dalers in
the country. And that he was in his

THREE LUMBER YARDS
 ARE CONSOLIDATED

Announcement was made yesterday
 by J. S. Amundsen, general manager of the Arizona Stores company, of the consolidation of the lumber business of that store with the Kingman branch of the Halstead Lumber company and the Mcconnell Lumber company. The deal IS very important one and means the massing under one manage ment of the largest and most complete stock of lumber, building material and mining supplies in Mohave county.
 The new company has not been named as yet but it is thought that it will be known as the Mohave Lum- Der company. Influential men of Ari- zona and Los Angeles are behind the consultation and the new concern is backed by ample capital. The local wards will be at the location occupied by the Halstead Lumber company and the grounds of the Arizona Stores company on the railroad "Y."
 The new concern will be managed by H. B. Scott, formerly manager of the Imperial Valley Lumber company of Fl Centro, Brawley, Imperial, Holt ville- Calexico and other points in the Imperial valley. Mir. Scott is a lum- Der man of wide experience and the new organization considers itself for tunate in obtaining his services. He has lately been stationed at Oatnan. looking after the interests of the Hammond Lumber company, in con- nection with the Mcconnell Lumber company.
 Branches of the new concern will be at Oatman in charge of Mir. Mayall and at Chloride in charge of Mir. Isham, who was manager at Kingman for the Halstead Lumber 
 Mir. Halstead yesterday said that he Mohave county a very prom ising field for such a concern. In riew of the expected revival of build rg operations early in the autumn, the new company will no doubt meet AIth the success it deserves.

CHLORIDERS DESIRE
 ROAD ID BIG CAMP

A large number of Chloride men ap- peared before the board of supervisors yesterday with request for the build ing of a new road between the county seat and the big lead-zinc camp. The desire for road along the foothills of the Cerbats has grown rapidly and the necessity is so apparent that it is believed the supervisors and county engineer will make survey that will meet a long felt want in every camp between Kingman and Chloride-that of good wagon road. While every camp is now within hailing distance of the railroad, wagon road is never theless a necessity, as nearly all the passenger travel is by auto.
 With regard to building of roads, the record made by the present board of supervisors is one of which they can justly be proud. It has built more roads. and good ones, too. than all the other boards of supervisors in the county's history. It has been a board of builders and it is to be hoped that it's members will remain in office many years to complete a great system of roads for Mohave county.

TIMES MANAGER HAS
 NEW DEAL UNDER WAY

W. F. Gray, manager of the Times Mining company, will leave this morn ing for Los Angeles by way of King man. He has not divulged the nature of his mission, but admits that he is going on account of an important deal that is under way. It was only a few days ago that he closed a deal there for the merging of the water interests of his company with the Tom Reed Gold Mines company, and that the present deal is of as much or greater importance there is no ques- tion.
 There is known to have been mat ters of moment with reference to the future of the Times under considera- tion for a period of several weeks, and it is believed that the present ac- tivities of Mir. Gray will quickly bring these to a head.

FINE RESIDENCE FOR
 CONTRACTING FIRM

A $2000 residence, belonging to the contracting firm of Fleming & Stitzer, will be completed in the next two or three days. It is located between Oat- man and Mazona and is one of the best pieces of architectural work in the district. It is two stories high and has all conveniences, such as lights, water and everything a mod ern residence is supposed to have, and a great deal more than most of them in 0atman.
 It is a fair sample of the skill of these energetic contractors, who have done a lot of good work in the up- building of 0atman since their arrival here. MT. Fleming was the first fire chief of 0atman and has several times had ti said to his credit that his promptness saved the camp from de struction. MT. Stitzer is an exceed ingly keen business man, as well as a builder.

ARIzONA-COMSTOCK
 WILL SOON START
 BIG DEVELOPMENTS

Within six weeks the Arizona-C Com
 stock property is going to begin a
 campaign of development work for
 which all the preparatory steps have
 been taken. It has all the financial
 arrangements complete and now only
 awaits a plant which is. being pur-
 chased at Los Angeles by Francis J. l Gallagher, mining engineer and su-
 perintendent for the company.
 The treasury has been enriched by the sale of 50,0O0 shares of stock to J. E. Sprague, of Montana, for 25 cents a share, and another block of 100000 shares has been contracted to a party connected with the Phelps Dodge people, to be taken up by No vember 1.
 A directors meeting of the company was held yesterday in Oatman at the St. Francis hotel, and it was there that the 100000 contract was consid- cred and entered into. In addition officers were elected for the ensuing year as follows: President. J. E. Sprague, of Montana; vice president. Del Sherer, mechanical engineer of the Tom Reed, who also is interested in the 0atman-Amalgamated: secre- tary and treasurer, A. B. Taylor: en- gineer and mine superintendent, Francis J.

MEXICAN SAWS WAY
 OUT OF COUNTY JAIL

c. A. Sotello, United States pris- oner, held on charge of bootlegging, sawed a bar of the jail corridor and made his escape Sunday night. Sotel- To had been locked in the corridor by mistake, the jailer believing him an- other prisoner. He cut the bars with a jackknife that had been converted into file by nicl1ing it on one of the square bars of a cell.
 The bar cut was one cut out by a previous escape. It had been partly welded by oxyacetylene, but which had only small fraction of iron holding it. The work was done in about four hours, which shows what a really ex- pert prisoner could do to the jail in time Of stress.
 Sotello is slim, fairly good looking Mexican, far above the average in looks and intelligence, wears a small goatee and mustache. It is believed that he is wanted elsewhere for some. greater crime, as he showed great to escape from the jail. A re- ward of S25 has been offered byI Sheriff Lane for his recapture.

CAMP IN HIGH FAVOR
 ON PACIFIC COAST

q was at Sar Francisco and on the exchange there, also at Los Angeles and on the exchange there. The brokers tel me it iS a little qu;et and trading IS light, but Oatman is no worse than Coldheld or any CT them, for there is but little trading in any mining securitiea at presen+:," said Mitchell Carter, manager Of tEc Oat- man Investment company, yesterday, after his return from the coas-.
 But they think well of Oatlnan, and it will be f ne as soon. T; condi- tions shape themselves for the bet ter, which they are doing rapidly. I went there merely to size up the mar ket in the interest of Black Range. I found that it stands favorable, but there is no use trying to make a mar ket until the tide turns our way, which now is only a matter of little time.
 'I have no doubt that itlis a good thing that we had little quiet period. It Serves to bring the business down to steady basis and makes it better on the long run. It will be all the more favorable for us."
 Mir. Carter says the Black Range is going right ahead on the plans it adopted and it will not pause until the secrets of the 600-foot level are known to the world.

NORTH STAR AGAIN
 WORKS NIGHT SHIFT

Since resuming operations, after a brief shutdown for mechanical repairs, the Oatman-North Star has put on night shift and is driving two drifts. The plant resumed work last Thurs day and for a time but one shift was worked.
 A big strong ledge has been opened up in the drifts. It contains a mix ture of quartz and spar and, accord ing to Manager R. R. Moore, it pans all kinds of concentrates. None of it has been assayed recently. It should only be necessary to drift under the points where high surface values were obtained to get big results in two di- rections from the shaft.

ENTHUSIASTIC AS ID THE FUTURE OF
 MOHAVE COUNTY

''It was the great development of the mines of Oatman that caused min ing to come back" said N. E. Guyot, secretary of the Wrigley Exploration company, who recently returned from New York, land this fall it is going to be fine - better than anybody inagines.
 We are inexactly the right spot
 We have the showings, big lodges of values that will pay for mining and treatment, with a fair profit on the money invested. It is a far different thing from Goldfield or any of the camps with which you and have been familiar in recent years. We have three or four great big propositions here and they are doing great things for us. It has been little quiet here during the hot months of the summer. In that time the 'tinhorns' have been forced out and there are not more than couple of them left in the camp. They vii have to go for they cannot make 1t here. This is a desert and a hot country and that is a good thing for it keeps away an element that is of no advantage to us.
 Not only Oatman but the big sul- pbide belt, all Mohave county, will benefit by the activity that you will witness from this time forth. Big money is coming in and is going to be expended in legitimate and beneficial manner. We have a region of most favorable conditions. It is the largest mineral belt of big lodges in the whole | world. With Oatman and the big sul- phide belt we have the gold, silver, lead, zinc, copper, silica and every thing required for big smelting en- terprise. Besides we are in a desert | where there are no ranches to inter fere. It will mean that on the Colo rado river there will be a smelting l. enterprise that will handle the output and cause the development of all the mines in this favored area The sul- phide belt alone could well support great big smelter and all of the es- sentials for its success are there"
 In the sulphide belt, 14 miles from Kingman, the Wrigley company has an immense mining property in totally undeveloped stage, described as prac- tieally a mountain of ore, which will be explored and developed. For that reason Mir. Guyot will reside at King man to be convenient to that and the company's Oatman properties as well.
 Mark my word," he said, ''if the Wrigley group in this camp does not make a mine there will be no need for anybody else looking for one. If s100,000 will make mine there we are going to have one. We have found better values on the surface than is generally known and we are now go- ing after them by tunneling under the mountains, having exceptionally fine tunnel sites. Our machinery/is to be placed at once and our underground 1 work will proceed thereafter. We shall have two gangs of men at work; one at Kingman and one here"
