local diamond The hardware men

but it was a hardwear on their sys-

Lesueurs by the liberal score of 10
to I. The Lesueurs swear that the
umph, swerved from the straight and
narrow path of rectitude once or twice
but be this true or not true it was
hard battle bravely lost and nObly
won. The errors as shown by the
score card give the hardware men
100 minus, which is somewhat better
than their opponents who erred to the
tune of 100 plus. Senator Stapley
was some rooter for his bunch.

IMPORTANT STRIKE
IN PIONEER MINE

The new strike in the Pioneer mine
is assuming immense proportions. 1t
appears now to be nothing less than
another United Eastern and easily the
second mine in the camp-at any rate
strong competitor of the Big Jim
for the honor, says the Mohave Miner.
The ore in the west crosscut from
the south drift on the 400-foot is
showing by Mornings values around
SIG and SIS a ton. 1t is eight feet
wide and in length it is opened now
for 25 feet.
The Pioneer mine was sold to

ufacturers, by Carl F. Schader, George
Moser and others. A large portion of
the purchase contract still stands in
escrow and the sellers have access to
the property at all times. In addition
they are stockholders.
Mr.. Schader last week went to
Goldstone with the Daily Miners Oat-
man correspondent, and on account of
telegram telling of strike on his
property there, the wire being from
John A. Pirtle. But had not he pre-
viously given his promise to the two
he would have obeyed a later sum
mons to the Pioneer mine, which was
in the form of message received at
Kingman while en- route, telling of
the present great strike. However,
he made hurried call at Goldstone.
then passed on quickly to his home
at Los Angeles and returned within
"a hours to see about the Pioneer
strike. 1t proved to be better than
he was informed. larger and in every
respect more important.
1t is one of the most important
\events in the history of Oatman and
places the Pioneer in a class with the
United Eastern, Tom Reed Big Jim
and Gold Road. Thus there are five
real mines-million dollar mines-in
camp. each with upward of 81 900, 900
in sight. one of them having at least

the Arizona Tom Reed on the north

NEW YORK, June 10 (Wall Street,
The market was in the doldrums
during the greater part of todays
irregular session, dealings tapering
off to the smallest total of recent
weeks Traders proceeded with
greater caution in view of the I'M
certainties surrounding the railway
labor situation and affairs in Mexi-
co. The continued absence of public

decided drawback
Prices received their initial rever-

offerings of Anglo French war bonds
caused a decline of a substantial

this issue was the more inexplicable
from the fact that much of the for

C|NNABAR DEPOSITS
IN MAZATZAL FOUND

An examination of the quicksilver
deposits of the MaZatzal Range, Ariz.,
has been made by F. L. Ransome, of
the United States Geological Survey,
and his report has been published as
Bulletin 620-F These quicksilver de-
posits occur in a strip of country
about 6 miles long that e-tend north
eastward across the Ma sAtzal Range
in the vicinity of Pine Butte, IL miles
south of North Peak. All the claims
are in the Sunflower district, in which
cinnabar was discovered in October,
1911. by E. H Bowman of Phoenix,
while prospecting for gold.
Not enough mining work has been
done at the time of the visit of the
Survey geologist to determine wheth-
er the quicksilver deposits of the Sun
flower district are susceptible of
profitable exploitation.
The geological facts of occurrence
and some sampling done by a New
England mining engineer indicate that
the parts of the lodes of minable di-
mansions now exposed to view carry
no more than 3 to per cent of quick

Of quicksilver is obtained, it is evil
dent that the Mazatzal deposits have
considerable promise.
Facts that indicate the likelihood
that the deposits will be productive

The Game of Life

Life is a game of ball in which
Fate does the pitching. The
shortstop is Ill Health, who puts
us out of the game before we go
around the diamond. A perman-
ent crouch is the cross grained
bat that breaks at the critical
moment and spoils our chances
of driving a home run. Fate
has a great wind-up and tosses
us lots of curves. To slide to
home we must keep our eye on
the ball and be in the game for
all it is worth. The sluggard
alone is content to knock two
bagger and depend on the next
batter to bring him in. The UNI
pire is Public Opinion, by whose
decision we are compelled to
abide. Father Time never muffs
the ball and always puts out his
man.-Ralph L. King in Friends
Magazine.
