HUGE MOUNTAIN
 LION CAUGHT IN TRAP
(From Wednesdays Daily.)

The biggest mountain lion ever killed in this county was exhibited in Prescott yesterday. and attracted very much attention for its massive size. It was caught in steel trap at Cedar Glade during the week, by A. C. Phillips. and later shot to death, after which it was weighed at that railroad station, tipping tn: scales at 25S pounds. Ii measured from tip 10 tip feet, 4 inches, and across its forehead 1t spanned II inches. Its age was computed at over 30 years, and the loss of livestock by its marauding runs into the thousands of dollars.
 Mir. Phillips brought the pclt here to receive the bounty of Sl0, which he refused after being informed he could not retain the hide. He had several buyers, and will sell later for five times that sum, ono purchaser offer ing over S50. The head and feet are attached to tho pclt, and the coating is unusually beautiful for animals oi this breed, indicating old age.

MAKE SURE THAT THE
 BOARD HAS YOUR ADDRESS
(From SundaY's OaIIYl

/ Men of military age who have reg istcrcd for service in the national army need not expect the govern mcnt or the local exemption board to hunt up the corrcc, address of each man m order that the former may mail out the qucstionnaires to the draftccs. The local board yestcr- day asked the Journal-Miner to an nounce that it was going to be up to the men to sec that the board pos scSSed their correct addresses, as the failure to receive one of the Qucs- iionnaircs will not be accepted as a valid excuse for not filling it out and getting 1t back to the board offices within the required period of seven days. If the registrant does not have his question list all filled out and back within the required time, he thereby automatically forfcits all claims for exemption or deferred classification, and he will be listed among the men in Class \, or those eligible for military service at the first subsequent call.
 In addition to being placed in the front ranks of the cligibles, any man who wilfuHy refuses to submit the report called for will be taking a chance of tangling with the United States courts, and there IS a penalty of one year in the county jail for any who fail to send in their life history detailed in the qucstionnaires.
 So, if your board doesn't know your present whereabouts and if you are a male citizen between the ages of 2l and 5l, and arc not already in the ranks of the army or navy, Il will be mighty good thing for you to give the matter little attention. and make sure that the local board is in possession of your correct post office address.

RIGID RULES ID FACE MILITARY
 RECRUITS
NEXT BATCH OF SOLDIERS MUST SUBMIT TO DEM TAIL OPERATION, IN AD- OPTION TO PHYSICAL EX- ANIMATION.
(From Sundays daiiy.j

Arizona recruits for the war must have good teeth to fight. and this es- scntial qualification of the soldier is to receive skilled and earnest attcn- ton immediately.
 Dr. J. Harvey Blain, of this city, president of the Arizona Dental Board, who possibly may go into ac' tive service in his profession, has received adviccs from Washington by the surgeon general of the army, through the State Dental ASsocia- ton at Phoenix, authorizing him to act as chairman of the Prescott dis trict and to heed certain rules laid down covering dental surgery, ap- plicablc to those who may be drafted.
 It is suggested that all district chairmcn call a meeting at once to organize for the work, and that a record be kept of each patient. On account of the volume of work it Is considered impracticablc to devote more than one hour to man. From the viewpoint of military efficiency it is deemed essential that the mouths of recruits be placed in good condi- ton, and examinations arc to be made of all drafted men, with pref crcncc given those who are to leave with the next contingent. Instruc- tions governing the work arc as fol lows:
 All teeth that would require root canal work, all teeth having a history of periodical ajsccss, all teeth acute ly afflicted with pyorrhca, as well as all third molars, should be extracted. Thc only teeth to be filled at this time are those having painful cavities and made useless for maSticating. Teeth having deep cavities arc to be filled immediately, and there Is to be but one sitting with no return ap- pointmcnts unless absolutely ncccs- sary.
 Dr Blain stated yesterday he lS ar ranging his local business to serve in his proies sional capacity in the above work as soon as his services arc re- qucstcd and is making an earnest en-

MONEY IS STILL COMING IN FOR

MORE THAN S650 HAS BEEN COLLECTED SINCE MON DAY AND co U N T Y'S DONATION IS IN EXCESS OF $35,000.
(From Fridays Daily.)

The contributions for the Y. NJ. (. 4. war work are continuing to come in to the local committee in charge oi the solicitation of the funds in this county, and according to statement issued by one of the committee ycs- terday, more than S650 has been re- ceived since Monday, most of the money being contributed by well-to- do residents of the county who were for some reason or other prevented from making their subscriptions at the time the campaign was being con- ducted.
 The after-campaign money was un- solicited, the requests for funds hay. ing ceased at the expiration of the time which was allotted for that work. Charles L. Rigden, of Kirkland, yes terday sent in a check for Sl00, and his accompanying letter voiced the sentiments of many of the recent donors, to-wit: that he was pleased at having an opportunity to contribute to move which was so Nltally eSSen- tial to the welfare of the American army.
 Frank s. Dickcrson, the wealthy cattleman of Seligman, also sent in a check on Wednesday for the sum of S100, while w. Wilkins, of the firm of Wilkins & Young, cattlemcn Of the Dewey section, has just contributed a S200 check to the good cause. It is understood that there are number of other substantial subscriptions which are to be made within the near future, and with the amounts already on hand, the county's contribution to the war work fund of the Y.
