ROPER OPENS COPPER
 IN MOLYBDENUM MINE

George Roper, who has been work ing on a molybdenum property in New York mountains, this week shipped a sample of the new ore, recently en- countered in his shaft, to J. S. With CTS, at Kingman. The ore shows big in copper and it is probable that he will open a large deposit of the metal. The vein is large and as molybdenum runs with copper in the veins of the southwest we are of the opinion that instead of a molybdenum mine Mir. Roper will soon have a great copper property. Copper is to be found in all the mountains in the vicinity of the New York range and the trend is northwest into Ely, Nevada.
 The many friends of Mir. Roper in this county are pleased to learn that he is in possession of one of the big possibilities of the desert section.

REACH GOOD ORE
 IN TWINS MINES

M. B. Dudley, general manager of the Twins mines at Cerbat, reports that the water has been drawn from the shafts and the work of clearing out the drift at the bottom is under way. A drift 6a feet down has been entered and a fine body of lead ore found upon which work is now being done. This body is about 10 inches wide and shows splendid grade. A stope will be opened on the ore to as certain it's possibilities. A shaft from the surface is being sunk on the vein at another point, where very good lead carbonates have been encountered. This shaft will be driven down into the ore to develop the body at that point, which is considerably removed from the other ore bodies that have been opened.
 Superintendent Erickson has every thing working nicely at the property and expects to get good results. A nicely situated camp has been estab- Hshed and everything placed in ship shape.

FUEL ADMINISTRATORS
 MEET IN KINGMAN

The fuel administrators of MOhave county met at the offices of the chair man, s. D. Stewart, yesterday morn ing, with local fuel handlers, for the purpose of getting down to a delivered price for coal in Kingman. The fuel men proffered a rate of $11.80 per ton, a proportionate rate for half ton or less, with the exception of a charge for delivery practically the same as a whole ton. Of course the charge for delivery really would be within few cents for half ton that of a whole ton, the time and haulage being prac- tically the same, and the rate seems fair and just.
 Exception was taken to the position of the Miner, when protest was en- tered against the high rate charged for both coal and slabs during the coal shortage of 1916 and 1917, and the merchants appeared to think that it was a slam on their business. The Mi ner has always tried to be fair with local business men, and we believe that we have been eminently fair. During all the years this paper has been pub lished it has worked hard to bring business to Mohave county, and we venture the assertion that we have succeeded in bringing in more real bus mess than all the business men of Kingman combined. There has. been no knocker about this paper. It has always been a booster for the county and its people. It stood up for road building when it was alone in the mat ter, and today the road that the Miner stood for is being built with the full and complete appreciation of the men who opposed it. Right prices will bring the business to Kingman busi- ness men, not the impugning of the motives of those who have the good of the community at heart.

RED GROSS DRIVE
 BRINGS GREAT RESULS

The final, or practically final, re- suits of the Red Cross Drive in Mo- have county show that we have nearly doubled the quota, and it is more than probable that the Big Sandy and Le- viathan will make up the deficit in the amount. While the whole country has come to the front with a rush in this drive for Red Cross funds we must say that this county shows up wonderfully well. Over 1900 people contributed to the fund, there being only five difference between the num- Der of subscribers to the Liberty Loan and the Red Cross. It is possible that every man and woman who bought bend reinforced it with a contribution to the organization that is supposed to back it up in a merciful way. To the good men and women who used their time and means to make the drive a success the feeling that they did their work we'll will be their re- ward.
 The following is the report of the committee:

RICO EXPLORATION
 PREPARING SHIPMENT

The Rico Consolidated Exploration company is getting out a trial ship ment of ore that will go forward to the smelters sometime this month. The shaft has been timbered to the 100 level and the drift at the 60 foot level is being opened and the ore body at that point exploited. This ore body is large and the values quite high. W. w. Lewis, who was at the mine this week, reports that everything is run ming along smoothly and that good ore is being sent to the surface daily. As soon as the treasury has been fi- nanced the shaft will be sunk to the 800 level.
 The Rico lies to the west of the old c. o. D. mine, which has been one of the largest shippers of rich ore in the county, and is on the same vein. Unlike the c. o. D., the values run high in gold, which is the rule in ev- cry vein in that section, the gold in creasing along the trend of the vein as it nears the apex of the mountain. The Rico is one of the worthy properties of the district and development is sure to make it a large shipper of rich ore.

BROTHERS
 MILLING WULFINIE

Pierson brothers have been testing out their wulfinite ores in the Last Chance mill near Wallapai Springs, and it is said with good results. The ore taken from the Pierson mines is quite rich in the rare metal, and much of it also carries values in galena and lead carbonates. Large lenzes of wul- finite appear in the lodges and these are being worked upon by the owners. We understand that an offer of a con siderable sum has been made for the property, but the offer was refused, the owners believing that a small amount of development will make them far more valuable. The mines are situated about 30 miles east of Kingman in the Wallapai mountains.

MANGANESE PROPERTY
 TAKEN UNDER OPTION

Some of the manganese properties recently discovered near TopOck have been taken under option by steel peO- pie and will be developed on good size scale. The men who have looked over the ground state that they believe immense possibilities lie in the mines of that section and it is probable that important shipments will soon be un- der way to the smelters. Manganese, while not high in price, has a good market and will have for some time to come. The government has just fixed a price on the ores that runs from 80 cents to $1.4O per unit, the S1.40 being paid for ore that will run close to 60 per cent, or at the rate of 1900 pounds metal to the ton. It is not probable that much ore will be found under this classification although there is con siderable now going to market that will run above 40 per cent.

OBSERVES MEMORIAL DAY
 BY PATRIOTIC GATHERING

hingman patriOtiucaly observed Memorial Day last Thursday by turn ing Iut many hundreds strong to march to the cemetery and strew flow CTS on the graves of our soldier dead, as well as the tombs of dear friends who have gone to the other shore. The parade formed on Fourth street, at the court house, the procession passing down that thoroughfare headed by the home guards and boy scouts. About fifty automobiles containing from four to seven passengers were in line, while women and children passed out west to view the parade as it drew up to the old cemetery. The parade pass ed from Fourth street to Front, west on Front to First, north on First to the cemetery.
 Owing to the failure of the trains from the east Judge J. A. Ellis and Governor Hunt, who were to address the people, Judge c. L. Lewis presided and made a telling though short ad- dress. The Girls Glee club sang pa triotic and appropriate songs. Rev. Thomas H. Dodd offered the benedic- ton, and the salute was fired over the graves of the departed ones, the bu- gler blew "taps" and the services were ended. Every grave in the cemetery was decorated by the people present, there being an abundance of flowers and greenery.
 During the day many people also visited the Mountain View cemetery and placed remembrances on the graves of their dear departed friends and relatives.
 The day was a beautiful one, and the people took advantage of it in getting out to participate in the pa rade and add their token of loyalty to this memorable event.

KEEPING HIS HAND IN
 ARRESTED FUR BURGLARY

Herbert D. Lore, he of the Mohave County Abstract company, who is proud of the fact that he dispoiled a mans home and the consequent adver- Using the Miner gave him, is keeping his hand in the old game, having been arrested on a charge of having bur glarized the home of E. J. Hoover at Mineral Park a few days ago. The complaint is said to have charged him with the breaking of the lock on Hoover's home and abstracting there from an oil stove and other things, the taking of oil and other things from the tent of J. W. Prisk.
 The hearing of the case was held before Justice Lislerude at Chloride yesterday and Lore fined in the sum of $40 on a finding that he was guilty

MEETS AWFUL DEATH
 BY ACCIDENTAL SHOOTING

Lester Miller, the 10-year-old son of MT. and Mrs. George w. Miller, met a terrible death at the Lookout ranch, 30 miles southeast of Blackberry last Wednesday morning, when his shotgun was accidentally discharged. The charge of light shot entered one leg and ranged up into his body, perforat- ing his intestines and causing such terrible injury that he died four hours afterward.
 The little fellow had been hunting squirrels that infested the garden with a rifle but concluded to take his shot gun instead. He went onto the hill back of the ranch house and standing upon large boulder looking for squir- rels and apparently in some manner became unbalanced and started to fall against a smaller rock. In doing so he dropped the gun and the hammer came in contact with the rock setting it off. The full charge entered the boys leg and body, ranging up into the left arm. He arose to his feet and walked 30 or 40 feet toward the house, but becoming faint called his mother, who came at once to his assistance. He was suffering terrible pain, and the mother realizing his terrible injuries got big touring car ready and start ed with the older boy to Kingman. The boy had never driven the car before, but with the mother'a aid they made the trip. But the little fellow died when they were ten miles south of Blackberry. The body was taken to kingman and the mother at once re- turned to the ranch having left the smaller children alone. Mir. Miller was absent on the roundup and did not get back to the ranch until ' o'clock that evening.
 The distance from Lookout ranch to Kingman is about 60 miles and the dis tracted mother carried the dying boy in her arms four hours until death mercifully relieved him. Then she came on to Kingman and returned home through a cold snow and sleet storm. What her feelings must have been on that terrible ride can only be imagined.
 The little fellow was a general fa- vOrite in the Kingman school during the past year and he had only gone out of town last Saturday, after the close of the school term. His little comrades were the pall-bearers at the funeral, which took place in Mountain View cemetery yesterday afternoon. Friends and acquaintances from all parts of the county came in to pay their last tribute of respect to the it- tie fellow. Mir. and Mrs. Walter came in from Williamson valley to attend the funeral. Mrs. Walter is the grand mother of the boy. Many floral trib- utes were offerings from the little school fellows of deceased were placed upon the bier.
 The sympathy of the entire com munity goes out to the bereaved fam fly in their great loss.

FROM
 CAMP M'DOWELL

Philip A Smith, who was sent to Camp McDowell with the draft contin- gent on May 5, arrived home last eve ming, having been turned down on ac- count of asthmatic troubles. The young fellow will probably be called in the deferred classification, which will bring into service all men who have heeE rejected for some physical dis ability that unfitted them for the fighting ranks, but which will not in terfere with their doing war work back of the lines.

MISSOURI-MOHAVE
 STRIKES RICH ORE

The shaft of the Missouri-Mohave Mining company has encountered splendid ore on the dip of the vein. The shaft is being carried down quite straight and the vein has been dipping away somewhat more rapidly than the shaft, which brought into view a splendid streak of lead-zinc ore, which carries gold values. The vein is show ing up good in size and the impress sion of the management is that a big producer will soon be developed.

of larceny. How the justice arrived at the decision is quite beyond us. Lore admitted having taken the prop erty, and as the door was locked, he must have broken in and there could be nothing else but burglarious intent.
 Cabins throughout the district have been burglarized so often that when some of these fellows are caught in the act it is about time that they get their "needin's." This cheeky indivi- dual, breaking into a mans cabin and stealing his goods ought surely to get a punishment fitting the crime. With such men loose there is not safety for any persons goods or property, and we hope that the next grand jury will not let the matter rest with a mere fine for such crime.

SCHOOL PROGRAM WAS
 INTERESTING

The program given by the teachers and children of the public and Union high schools last Saturday in the au- ditorium of the high school, was one of the most entertaining events given by the school in years.
 The exhibition of domestic science and manual training departments was exceptionally good. The girls showed great proficiency in sewing and other household economies. Owing to lack of equipment the young folks were unable to take up cooking, but this will be remedied the coming session. The sloyd class exhibited many handsome pieces of furniture, giving evidence that the teacher was profi- cient in that branch and was able to impart his methods to the children. There were four graduates, the Misses Annie Kause, Lodema Cook and Francis Sherman and Emmett Hoff- man.
 The following program was also car ried out:
