YAVAPA| COPPER POPULAR ON
 THE COAST
BOSTON & JEROME STOCK CENTER OF SPIRITED TRADING ON SAN FRAN CISCO EXCHANGE.
Special to the Journal-Miner.

Speclal 70 the JOurnai-Mlner.
 SAN FRANCISCO. May 1S.-The calling of the stock of the Boston & Jerome Copper Company, a Yavapai county, Arizona, copper mining in corporation, on the San Francisco Stock Exchange yesterday, marked the advent of the Arizona coppers to the trading list. The stock opened on the board at 50 cents and advanced to 54 on spirited trading. Many or ders were placed at 50 were not ex- ecuted as the advance in price imme- diately followed the initial sale.
 The announcement that Boston & Jerome was to be called at the open ing session of the exchange on We'd nesday created somewhat of a sensa- ton in Bush street mining circles, as hitherto the stock exchange here had never dealt in the copper issues. A large crowd of mining stock buyers was in attendance to witness the in novation and to lend zest to the spirited trading in Boston & Jerome on the floor. The stock proved pop ular with the traders from the open ing to the close of the call and is evi- dently to be one of the most active on the entire list.
 Local brokers see in the advent of Boston & Jerome to mining circles here the forerunner of list of Ari- zona copper issues that will prove to be very attractive to San Francisco stock buyers and serve as a strong trade medium between the mining stock market of this city and that of New York. Boston & Jerome Cop per is the first Yavapai county mining stock ever called on the San Fran cisco exchange.
 Other Yavapai county stocks are. however, to be called on the local board in short time, among them being Tuscumbia Mining G Milling and Golden Dragon Mining & Milling.

IONA PR|ETA IN SOLID
 BODY CHALCOPYR|TE ORE
Encouraging Reports Arc Made to The Annual Meeting of Stockholders; Old
 Board Directors Reelected.
(By William P. De WolD

Third: In increasing the treasury
 stock, which was reduced to approx
 imately 100000 shares, so that the stock treasury now has in it a full 6OO,OO0 shares, and the company has no outstanding obligations whatever;
 Fourth: In settling all its litiga-
 tion and questions concerning title
 and right of possession, and the com
 pany is now the undisputed owner of
 P unpatented claims, approximately
 800 acres, in Copper Basin, Yavapai
 county, Arizona.
 "All of this has been accomplished by the energy and liberality of those who have now, and have long mad an interest in the company and who are determined to make it success. Mir John Livezey has so handled the per sonal stock he held under contract of purchase from the former president and secretary, who were then large stockholders, that he has provided the present funds in the company's treas try without any obligation whatever on the part of the company. And he. with other large stockholders, has do- mated to the treasury the stock neces- sary to make a full 600,O00 shares, which is 10000 greater than the treasury held for development pur- poses when the company was first or. ganized.
 Those who so eagerly purchased stock at 25c per share when some of it was recently on sale, will see how truly the management is endeavoring to bring about success. In this they now have an opportunity to assist. The corporation commission has att thorized the sale to the public of 100,- coo shares of the treasury stock, to be offered at Sl per share, to obtain nee essary working capital. The directors have an allotment for this purpose. Your stock is not in a pool to protect the market, as is usual. But if you will voluntarily withhold any sales of personal stock at or below that fig ure, it will guarantee a treasury fund for development and improvements which will, in turn, enhance the value of your holdings. To this extent the directors ask you wno have had the of purchasing at such low figure, to withhold your stock from the market during the treasury offer, and are very much in hopes that such will bear its own reward by the increase in the value of your stock in the future"

MANY RESPOND TO
 CALL FOR GUARDSMEN
(From Fridays DaiIy)

Although Prescott is several hun
 dred miles from the border and it's
 residents naturally less agitated by
 recent bandit activities than those of Douglas, Fl Paso and other frontier
 cities, there was nevertheless real.
 old-fasnioned brand of patriotism
 prevalent when the national guard re-
 cruiting office in the Head hotel was
 opened yesterday to enlist additional
 men for service in patrolling the bor-
 der and protecting Americans from further bandit outrages.
 Throughout the day the office, in charge of Lieutenant NJ. A. s. Ming and Sergeant-Major Chauncey Lyons, was filled with men, some of them mere boys. who were eager to enlist and go to Douglas, where the guards men are mobilizing. Many of the ap- plicants were turned down, but F members of the old Prescott company and an equal number who mad not previously been members of the guard were enlisted. Two left for Phoenix on the afternoon train yesterday. Others will leave today to join them at the capital city. and from there all will go to Douglas where they will be outhtted and assigned to duty at vari- ous points along the Arizona-Mexico border.
 Several cowboys enlisted and were almost heartbroken to find that they would not be able to take their "broncs' with them to the border. One of the new recruits was formerly sailor in the U. s. navy, and was one of the first to respond to the call of Uncle Sam.
 Several girls applied for enlistment as Red Cross nurses and offered to go at once to the border to care for any of the boys who might be wound ed or become i'll. All were told that no nurses would be taken to the bor- der unless a definite disagreement with Mexico should come about.
 If the men of Prescott were as eager to serve their country as the young women," said Lieutenant Ming last night, I've would have no trouble recruiting the national guard to far greater than war strength. However. we are more than satisfied with the of enlistments secured today and confident that tomorrow we will enlist many morc."
 Many of the applicants. new at the game, asked if they could not be giv- en commissions as soon as they en- listed. Adjutant-General Harris, at is said to have on file sew eral hundred similar requests from youths who ask to be appointed any thing from a corporal to a brigadier- general.
 The day was not without its pathet- c side. Several mothers visited the office and with tears in their eyes pleaded with the officers not to enlist .hcir sons. should they apply. They were promised that any boys under age would not be accepted without he consent of their parents.
 Lieutenant Ming and Sergeant Lyons will remain in Prescott today 70 recruit guardsmen. From here hey will go to Clarkdale and Jerome. where they will also spend several lays in a temporary recruiting office.

Running on car tracks supports the

This breaks the fabric and cuts the

best way to line up the wheels Is to

Note carefully II wheels toe in or

Polishing of Brass.

Would it be feasible to lacquer the
brass after polishing or use spar var

Lacauered brass never looks we'll on
an automobile. The lamps may be nick

Is to cover them with a special black
