OLD GOLD VEIN IN
CASA GRANDE MINE

CASA GRANDE, Nov. 9.-The old
gold vein in the Mammoth mine here
has been found and generous vein OF
$40 gold has been located, with indi-
cations that the lead will run thou
sand feet, although this is doubted by
Macia and Williams, partners work
ing the property.
The ore is all free milling. A mill
has been designed to handle tonnage,
for it cannot be shipped twenty-five
miles at the present values.
The Mammoth once produced about
100000 of good gold values, and then
pinched out on the bedding planes in
schist. Apparently the vein is now
permanent.
Macia and Williams went down un-
der a fifteen-foot fault and picked up
the old vein hnd developed thirty
inches of ore.
The Mammoth is located between
the Lake Shore and the Jack Rabbit
There is considerable location work
going on in this district.

WINKELMAN MEN
LOSE APPEAL TO
SUPREME COURT

w. w. Bush, former marshal of
Winkelman, and Asa Brown, who are
serving a term in the state prison for
extortion, lost their appeal in the SUI
preme court of the state this week,
when the high tribunal handed down a
decision affirming the judgment of
the superior court of Pinal county.
1t will be remembered that Bush
and Brown were arrested and convict
ed for extorting a bill of sale for 25
head of cattle from Mrs. Hannah L.
Young of Winkelman after having rep
resented to her that if she gave them
a bill of sale her son, Arthur Sellick,
would not be prosecuted for forging
a check.
A. fine tribute to the devo-
tion of motherhood is to be found in
the opinion, which was written by
Chief Justice Alfred Franklin. In
speaking of the characterization of
young Sellick by the defendants as
''an idle, vicious and dissolute per-
son unworthy of belief" and the fact
that his mother had always come to
his assistance, the Chief Justice says:
"It only emphasizes the love OF a
mother for her boy, and perhaps this
boy was willing party in many in
stances to extort property from his
mother. But however unworthy he
may have been of her affection, it is
the nobility of womanhood to help the
weak and distressed. She may glow
with pride for the vigor and character
of her offspring, but the intensity OF
her love and care will burst aflame for
the weak one. The mother is ever
ready to kill the fatted calf for her
prodigal son. This instinct to protect,
stronger even than her own self
preservation, is implanted in the
mother to sustain and advance the
race. The more the shame and moral
turpitude on the part of these de-
fendants in going to this old lady
under these circumstances. They
found her sick in bed, and observed
her torn between two desires, one to
save her property, and the other to
protect her boy against his folly and
dissipation. They then played upon
the latter feeling to extort from her
the bill of SALE"

MURDERSDOUBLE
SINCE ABOLITION
DEATH PENALTY

That murder has increased in Ari-
zona since the abolition of capital
punishment is shown by table COM
piled by the Arizona Gazette of Phoe-
nix, one of the most active support
ers of the abolition of capital pun
ishment
After a nine months trial the
Gazette wrote to the clerks of the
various counties of the state in an
effort to ascertain the true condi-
tions.
The results are published below.
The first column of figures repre-
sents the number of murder cases
reported in the various counties for
the last nine months of 1916, April 1
to December 81, inclusive, under capi-
tai punishment. The second column
represents the number of cases re-
ported during the first nine months
of 1917, January 1 to September go,
inclusive, after the anti-capital pun
ishment law became effective.

MASK BALL AT
RAY CON. CLUB
ATTRACTS MANY

The masquerade ball at the Ray
Consolidated club last Friday night
proved to be a big affair, so
large, in fact, that the dance floor
was inadequate to accommodate the
masked throng. Nevertheless, every
one crowded in a dance now and then.
The decorations were beautiful.
Streamers adorned every place that
it was possible to attach one, while
here and there could be found the in.
evitable imitation black cats, owls and
pumpkins.
In the center of the room hung a
human skeleton that blinked its cleo
trio eyes at the strange gathering.
Costumes of every design were
worn. No prizes were awarded this
year for the best costumes.
Mrs. Mary Morrison, governess to
the w. s. Boyd children, wore pretty
costume representing the Snow Girl;
Mrs. R. Boyette and Miss Miller had
Turkish costumes of pretty design
Miss Barbara Gates appeared as a
fairy. Adolph Giesbrecht as an Indian
chief was good. w. H. Norton hid
his identity in the folds of large
American flag. There were Yama-
Yama girls and boys galore.
Every one had good time and
along about midnight reluctantly left
the dance floor vowing they must
have another mask ball soon.

FIRE VICTIM WELL;
STARTS REBUILDING

The condition of Mrs. Walter Gregg,
who suffered burns last week in an
explosion of gasoline that partly de.
stroyed the Iris Theatre building, is
much improved and she is able to
ave the hospital.
George Mauk, owner u the build
ing, has been in Ray this week SUI
perintending the tearing down of the
front wall preparatory to rebuilding
at once.
The workmen were able to save a
considerable amount of hollow tile
out of which the walls were con
structed. Mr.. Mauk has planned a
new building modern in every way
He will also place roof over the
open air theatre at once.

KERENSKY IS
DEPOSED BY
ANARCHISTS

Premier Kerensky of Russia, the
strong man of the provisional govern
ment since the revolution in July, has
been deposed by the Maximalists, the
anarchist, at their head, have seized
most radical of the revolutionary par
ties, who with Nicolai Lenine, the
the capital and proclaimed that they
will at once negotiate an armistice
looking toward an early peace with
Germany. Premier Kerensky has fled
from Petrograd, which is in the hands
of the Maximalists.
The Petrograd garrison went over
to the Maximalists, and the coup d'etat
was accomplished almost without
bloodshed. Officers of the provisional
government were arrested after the
Winter palace had been bombarded
by the Russian cruiser Aurora and by
the guns of the fortress of ST. Peter
and St. Paul in the Neva river.
Civil war seems imminent, and
while the new movement may not
prove successful throughout Russia,
it appears likely that Russia is out Of
the war for long time to come. This
means that America will be COM
PEELED to raise a much larger army
than was first contemplated, that the,
war will probably be concentrated on
the western front, and that the grim
fight to crush the dragon of Prussian
militarism and autocracy may be
measurably prolonged.
In wellinformed quarters the hope
is expressed that all Russia will not
follow the new movement, and that
it may be only temporary.

PINAL co. SHARES IN
FOREST DIVIDENDS

Pinal county shared in the distri-
button of the revenues from the ma
tional forests this week, when ST.
1866 was added to the county road
fund. This money, which is distrib-
uted through the state auditors Of
flee, represents this county's part of
the $4,000 being distributed to the
various counties after 25 per cent of

school fund of the state.
The money received by Pinal county
represents the following items of rev.
enue: Coronado national forest,

$243.84. Total, 81, 1886.
Coconino county received the lions
