After November % it will cost more
to send letter to any point in the
United States than it will to send
one to Great Britain. After that date
all out-of-town letters will be asked
to change their color scheme. A
lavender Scent stamp will have to
be placed in the corner now occupied
by the 2-cent red steel engraving Of
George Washington. However, the
red portrait need not be discarded. 1t
can still be used in conjunction with
a green one. While the Scent rate
applies to between cities in the United
States, the international postal agree
ment fixing the rate to Great Britain

SCARBOROUGH
RECAPTURED
IS THE REPORT

= George E. Scarborough, who with
two other prisoners made his escape
from the state prison at Florence on
May 25, has been apprehended in
Engle, N. NJ, according to report re-
ceived this week. Officers are now
en- route to New Mexico to return
Scarborough to the penitentiary at
Florence, he having waived extradi-
ton, it is said.
A news dispatch from Tombstone
this week carried the information that
Scarborough had been arrested at En-
gle, New Mexico, and was being held
there pending the arrival of officers
from Arizona. Another man was with
Scarborough when he was arrested,
and he may be either one of the two
who escaped with him. According to
Cochise county officers the man with
Scarborough is Jack Price who es-
capped about the same time.
Scarborough was convicted and
sent to Florence in May of last year
for second degree murder His term
of incarceration ran from 10 years to
life and he gave his age as 38 years.

ORE At P|NAL DEVELOPMENT PROVES
RICHER THAN WAS FIRST EXPECTED

Assays of samples of ore taken
from the winze at Pinal Development
show richer copper content than was
first announced, running 21.4 per cent
in the red metal. This is consider
ably better than the value of four
teen per cent copper, announced some
weeks ago following an assay of ore
samples taken from near the top of
the winze, and is due either to the
fact that the native copper content
was lost in the previous assay or else
the ore is growing much richer with
depth The winze is now down dis
tance of forty feet, all in ore, which
appears to be widening with depth.
From the main tunnel a raise has
now been started to cut the ore strata
which is being explored some 400
feet away by the winze. This raise
is now up a distance of 20 feet and
it is expected that it will intersect
the ore strata at distance above the
main tunnel of 125 feet.
Additional evidences of enrichment
in the secondary or oxide zone at
Pinal Development which may be
taken as a splendid indication of a
big ore body at depth were brought
to light this week Samples of ore
taken from the big porphyry ledge on

DIRT To FLY
ON NEW RAILROAD
BY JULY 10

PRESCOTT, AriZ., June 29.-Con-
struction work on the Prescott and
Phoenix short line, which is to be
built south from Turkey Station on
the Prescott and Eastern branch of
the Santa Fe, will begin July Is, &C
cording to Col. E. H. Wilson, manag-
ing director of the new line. Enough
surveying work has been done on the
new line up to date to allow actual
construction work to begin, Col. Will
son stated.
The new railroad, which when COM
pleted, will be 70 miles in length, is
to connect Turkey with Glendale, on
the main line of the Santa Fe, Pres
colt and Phoenix. The survey for
the line does not follow the wagon
road south from Turkey Station, but
will pass through at a higher eleva-
ton. A report that the road would
follow the old survey made by the
Southern Pacific years ago when that
company planned to build into Pres
colt was also denied, although it is
stated that the new road will also
pass through Black Canyon.
Financing of a number of mining
companies in the districts to be tap
ped by the new railroad has been an
nounced, and number of other i'm
portant developments are said to be
pending.

the property gave values in gold and
copper. While the values as shown
by the assay are slight, the fact that
the great porphyry ledge contains ap-
preciable values is taken as an in
dication that great body of ore will
be encountered when the sulphide
zone is reached. The porphyry ledge
is $50 feet in length and 25 feet wide,
and forms a great intrusion in the
diabase. Samples taken from the big
iron ledge at Pinal also gave encour-
aging reforms. This ledge is IL feet
wide, and while partially obscured by
a wash, is one of the noteworthy feat
ures of the property. A drift 100 feet
long has been run to intersect the
ledge, and it was from this point that
the samples were taken. Indications
are that the iron will be replaced by
copper at depth.
The new developments at Pinal are
attracting a great deal of attention
throughout the state, the striking of
rich ore in the intermediate tunnel
and the winze being given especial
prominence.

aging director of the company, was

STATEMENT
IN BEHALF OF
CH|LDREN'S HOME

The Arizona Chi1dren's Home asso.
citation is an institution located in
Tucson, Arizona.
It's business is to find homes for the
homeless children of the state and to
provide an orphanage home for those
who, for various reasons, are not
adopted or may not be for adoption.
For seventeen years the work has
been done by the California society,
through Rev. A H. Gunnett, and the
work has been well done.
Two years ago the work was started
in this state and has grown so rapidly
and efficiently that it seemed best to
the California society to turn over all
it's work to the Arizona home and re-
tire from the field. This transaction
was consummated the first of June.
During the two years of work by
the Arizona home, one hundred and
thirty children have passed through
the home.
Thirty-fiv children are now in the
home. Only three of them are for
adoption
We have requests for room for sew
eral other children at the present mo-
ment, but we have no room for them.
We rent two buildings and will rent
another as soon as funds can be Sc
cured for rent and furnishings.
1t is our plan to build modern
building adapted to the needs Of the
home as soon as men of means can
be interested in this needy work.
1t costs about $4OO per month to
run the home at present. Most of this
support comes from the friends who
have become interested in the work.
The rest comes from those who have
sent their children to the home and
pay $3.50 per month. In some cases
cases the parent pays.
At present three women do the
work of the home. These women are
competent and well adjusted to the
| WOTk. Inc CQ1lQr0n are we'll 16Q,
clothed, sent to school when old
enough, mothered, cared for on the
playground and given every possible
aid in their character development
No distinction is made along racial
or religious lines, but most of the
children handled are nominal Prote-
tsants and all negro children will be
cared for outside the regular home.
The home is wide open at all hours
of the day for inspection and visitors
are welcome. 1t is always best to
call up some members of the board
before visiting the home. Some one
will be glad to accompany visitors to
the home.
Our immediate need is money with
which to buy food, pay rent, pay help
and other bills. Food clothing, bed
ding, furniture or anything that can
be used will be appreciated Lodges,
clubs, churches and individuals are
invited to help this most worthy and
needy cause within our state.

Elihu Root and other members of the

Formal reports by Mr.. Root for the

Jeen referred to the state. War and

may appear later in development of

Mr.. Root deeply interested in the
immediate adoption of some of the
measures for relief of Russia. which
were touched upon in the reports. That
is particularly true of the need of the
Russians for American locomotives and
rolling stock to keep the Russian
armies in the field properly supplied

TRADE COMMISSION MOVES.
Federal Board to Have Quarters at
18th and K Streets.

Local coal men might have sat with i'm
punity upon the great boardroom table of
the Federal Trade Commission yesterday
as il rested on the sidewalk on 18th street
across from Mcpherson square. The COM
mission is in progress of moving from the
Department OF Commerce building to its
new quarters at 18th and X streets north
west.
Yesterday, all alone and unprotected. on
the sidewalk rested the boardroom table
around which several days ago the COM
mission sat and laid down the law to the
coal men.
Yesterday coal wagons Haunted past the
big table in utter defiance. There is
a lot of difference between a table on
the sidewalk and a table in the board
room.
Moving is just about as fine midsum-
mer fun for the government as II is for

work even for Uncle Sam. Wagons get
delayed a bit. here and there, and your
