MEXICAN RED CROSS
entertainment IS
HUGE SUCCESS
$226,115.47

The entertainment given in Sonora
Sunday evening, under the auspices
of the Liga Protectora Latina, was
greeted by an audience which exceed
ed the capacity of the opera house.
Many were turned away at the door,
disappointed for lack of seating ca
pacity.
Plutarco Navarro, assisted by Do
mingo Gonzales, Lauro L. Navarro,
Angelita L. Navarro and Marcelino
Cordova, displayed his prowess as a
magician and kept the audience mys-
!ified during three acts of legerdemain
seldom excelled on the southwestern
circuits.
The acts of mystic art were inter-
spersed by a motion picture scenario
featuring Wallace Reed and Anita
King, and the entertainment closed
with comic reel which dismissed the
crowd in hilarious humor.
The Sonora band attracted the
crowds with a parade and concert
given before the show, while the So
nora orchestra furnished the music
during the performance
They money raised by the Sunday
entertainment will be placed in spe-
cial fund to be used for the benefit
of the Sonora boys who have joined
the colors Many articles of comfort
not furnished by the government can
be purchased by this fund and placed
in the soldier boys kit. Such remem-
brances from the home folks not only
alleviate the hardships of camp life,
but tighten the hearts of the boys who
cherish home-ties and know that they
are not forgotten.
The generosity and patriotism of
the Sonora populace and merchants
was manifested by the large attend
ance and contributions to the first
Red Cross entertainment given in the
Mexican settlement
1t is the plan of the Red Cross COM
mittee to give a series of dances and
entertainments in Sonora this winter,
and it is gratifying to know that they
will have the hearty cooperation and
support of the Mexican people.

COUNTY RECORDER
GIVES RULES FOR
FILING Of CLAIMS

Knotty points in regard to the filing
of claims for exemption from assess
ment work are cleared up in the fol-
lowing letter from County Recorder
w. l.. Brown of Pinal county, who is
taking a deep interest in helping the
claim owners to take advantage of
this arrangement:
OFFICE OF COUNTY RECORDER.
Florence, Arizona.
L Nov. 2, 1917
Ray Copper Camp, Ray, Ariz.:
Gentlemen:
Under a recent act passed by Con-
gress, holders of mining claims need
not do any assessment work for the
years 1917 and 1918, provided that
they file notice to this effect with
the county recorder. Blanks for this
purpose may be obtained from any sta
toner. One notice may be filed for
each group and the fee for each no.
tice is 20 cents, or 25 cents if the
owner wishes to have receipt ac-
knowledged. These notices remain in
the office of the county recorder and
are not returned to the sender.
The notices should reach the office
of the county recorder on or before
December 81. 1917, and will hold the
claims for both years.
This office would appreciate if you
would give this as much publicity as
possible, as there is considerable mis-
understanding in regard to the mat
ter and this may help to straighten it
out.
Yours very truly,
w. L. BROWN,
County Recorder
In connections with the above, the at
tention of claim owner is again called
to the fact that the Copper Camp
has secured a supply of the blank
forms for making these claims for
exemption from assessment work, and
same can be secured on application to
Mr.. R. v. Johnson at the Chocolate
Shop.

by Gen. Frederick b. Maurice. direct

perial general staff, in an interview
given to The associated Press. Gen
eral Maurice - an authority on mil

the biographer of Robert e. Lee in
series published under the title OF
Makers CT the Nineteenth Century. In
his opinion there is little difference
between the strategy followed sby the
commanders in the American civil war
and the strategy which governs the
great struggle of today.
Strategy as immutable as time, he
said, sis dominating this war as it has
dominated all other conflicts. The
world has long recognized Robert -.
Lee as a great general and in my
opinion he was one of the dozen
great commanders of history, a place
which is enhanced rather than
dimmed by his participation in lost
cause, as success gains its own rec
ognition. The strategy of which Gen.
eral Lee was master does not change
with time and in the year 2001 mill
tary leaders will be acting on the
principles of Napoleon and Lee.

the superior resources in man power

that more progress toward victory Is

The threatened complications over
appropriations were eliminated this
morning when the conference reached
an agreement that is regarded as
practically certain Of acceptance.
The house recedes from four of its
amendments by which the Valley City
normal gets its $4,000 building fund !;
the county agricultural training
schools at Maddox and Park River
get $4,000 annually each; the board of
control appropriation is restored in
full, and the supreme court salary
item Is restored in full to meet the
provisions Of the new salary bill, or,
rather, the continuance OF the $500
dktra payment for expenses. All the
other house amendments are accepted
by the senate.
The disposition OF the appropriation
problems will make it possible for the
legislature to conclude its work in an
orderly manner with indications that
adjournment will take place fairly
early.
Dozen Bills in Conference.
About a dozen bills were in confer
ence when the sixtieth legislative day
opened, these including the contract
interest rate measure. the Sunday
baseball measure. game law amend
ments. the terminal elevator commits
sion and the appropriations measure.
An agreement has been reached on the
latter.
One conference committee failed to
agree on the contract rate Of interest,
the house members standing for 8 per
cent rate. with the senators standing
for 8 per cent.
The house members on Sunday
baseball were unwilling to recommend
the abandonment of the house amend
ments that conflne Sunday ball to a
purely amateur sport.
The senators are unwilling to ac-
cept the house amendments to the
game bill by which the use Of dogs is

there has been radical change in the

S. B. "a is the bill that originally
was introduced by Senator Gronvold
to provide for the establishment Of

er that commission might determine,
with an appropriation of 100000 to
