A SPLENDID LECTURE

On last Saturday night Prof. j. KEEL
ly Wright, institute lecturer of the
State Board of Agriculture, of which
Judge E. E. Swink is member, de-
livered his famous lecture commonly
known as Missouri" to large crowd
of attentive men, women and farm
ers in the Court House. Most of his
talk was illustrated by the most inter
esting pictures, thrown on the can
vas by the use of the lantern slides,
which consisted of the beautiful seen
ic pictures of rocks and hills and
brooks and wales, and in many in
stances covered by the grazing herds
Of cattle, mules, sheep, hogs and
goats-all appearing in the finest con-
dition and contentment, with beauti-
full dwellings and barns and orchards
and strawberry patches, melon
patches, beautiful and well kept
roads, and last but not least the beau
tiful pictures of many of our boys and
girls (the best crop of the FARM
were shown in a most artistic and
pleasing way. He also, in his lee
ture and pictures, advocated a per-
manept system of agriculture, dom
mated by Christian homes, better
schools, better churches and better
roads, all resulting in the develop
ment of boys and girls of this great
State, with civic pride and patriot
ism, love of God and home and coun-
try.
In beautiful language and $50
beautiful slides, Mr.. Wright presented
his "Missouri-Isms" which were full
of surprises and pleasures for all who
heard him. A few of his statements
follow:
Missouri has more miles of nava-
gable roads than any other State.
The worlds greatest walk-trot
horse, Panama, was foaled in Missou-
ri.
The worlds greatest active road
ster, Peter Pan, was foaled in Mis-
souri,.
The worlds greatest saddle horse,
Rex Mcdonald, was foaled in Mis-
souri,.
Missouri leads all other States in
the Union in pure-bred Hereford cat
tie.
Missouri has the biggest scientif-
ically managed apple orchard in the
world, also the largest stocker and
feeder cattle market, in the world, and
the best college herd of dairy cattle
in the world. In the Mo. Ozarks is
found some of the most beautiful
scenery in the world. The largest
spring of fresh water in the world,
the largest lead and zinc mines in the
world. Missouri's Agricultural Col
lege is unsurpassed by any other in
all the United States, and many
other things that we should mention.

Mohave County miner., 1916-10-07
RECEIVES DATA ON
 HAYDEN MEASURE

The Mohave Daily Miner is indebted to E. Elmo Bollinger, local attorney for full data on the Act recently in- troduced in Congress by Carl Hayden and passed by the house of represen- tatives on September 4, last.
 The bill has not yet become a law as it has not been passed by the sen ate, but it will no doubt be acted upon favorably by that body some time during the session beginning in December.
 The bill provides that the secretary of the interior may declare unallotted lands on Indian reservations subject to exploration for the discovery of deposits of gold, silver, copper, and other valuable minerals. The pros pector may locate mineral claims the same as in other places and furnish the superintendent of the reservation with a duplicate copy of the location notice within sixty days after the claims is located. Within one year, he may apply to the secretary of the interior for lease of the claim. The lease shall extend for a period of 30 years, the lessee having a preferential right to renew the lease for successive periods of ten years; each lessee hay ing the right to use during the life of the lease a tract of unoccupied land, not exceeding eighty acres, for the purpose of camp sites, milling, smelting, etc.
 The lessee shall pay at least five per cent of the gross value of the minerals extracted to the interior department for the benefit of the Indians upon whose reservation the claim may be located; also an annual rental of twenty-five cents for acre for the first year, fifty cents per acre for the second, third, fourth and fifth years, and one dollar per acre for each and every year thereafter dur ing the continuance of the lease. In addition to the rental and royalty, the lessee is obliged to do S10O worth of work on each and every claim, as now required by the mining laws of the United States.
 It is a very important measure and means much to the development of the resources of Arizona, as there are over 19,OOO,OOO acres of unallotted Indian land in the reservations of this state.

GAME WARDEN Is ON
 LOOKOUT FOR 'SNEAKS'

Game Warden Frank Thompson is on the outlook for the many hunters reported as shooting quail out of sea- son for some time past. All of the true SpoTtsmen of this locality as we'll as the members of the gun club of Kingman, are of the opinion that these law violaters should be punished to the full extent of the law and have agrees to help the warden as much as possible.
 It seems that the many men who sneak out of the towns to hunt birds before the time is out could be able to wait until the opening of the sea- son as well as the residents. The most of the offenders have not even the ex- cuse of needing the meat for camp purposes as the greatest part of them are persons who butcher a lot of birds and slide back to town after dark.
 It is well known fact among many men who take notice of such things that the "sneaks" scarcely ever go out to hunt after the season opens. The true sportsmen of this section should each and every one appoint himself a committee to do all in his power to help bring such offenders before the bar of justice.

B. 1. VAUGHN AND WIFE
 IN |. A. AUTO WRECK

B. L. Vaughn, well known in King man, had a narrow escape from death in an automobile accident in Los An geles Friday afternoon. Together with Mrs. Vaughn, their little son, Mrs. E. E. Rathbun of Needles, Mrs. Clara Kinsman of San Diego, he was going to a hotel in a taxicab when a big touring car from a cross street struck their machine amidship.
 Mrs. Kinsman had her spine injured and suffered other internal injuries. She may die. Mrs. Vaughn was cut on the head and body. Vaughn was cut on the arm and the child was bad ly bruised.
 Max Borch, who was one of the pas sengers in the Santa Fe wreck at Kingman last week, was thrown into the windshield of the touring car and badly cut and injured. The big tour ing car almost demolished the taxi.
 Borch was being taken to the Santa Fe hospital by Dr. Tyroler, where he was to be placed until he recovered from the effects of the Kingman wreck. It is probable that he will be laid up for a long time from the ef fects of the later wreck.
 Mir. and Mrs. Vaughn are well known in kingman and Needles, Mir. Vaughn being a member of the local lodge of Elks.
