Yavapai Has Big Mines

Al least two Yavapai mines are well known to thousands of persons in ih-. United States and Canada One of these, the United Verde Extension. has brought wealth to those who a few years ago were wondering whether that little scrap of paper. called stock. which they hold in their possession. would really be valuable Little d.d they realize that the then mere pros pect" would develop. within two years. into mine producing 56.0c0 GOO pounds or copper per year. The Unit ed Verde is as important. but not per haps as interesting 10 the same nun Der. in view of the fact that with one exception of a few shares Of stock. the entire control is owned by former Sen ator w. A. Clark.

King and Queen Pleased
By Ragtime Of Eagle Hut
Pancakes Too, Tested by George and Mary in Surprise
Visit to Americans at Home in Y. M. c. A. Resort
for Soldiers and Sailors

not losing their boots were in the
habit of putting one leg of the bed in
each boot before going to sleep. ~
couldn't &C, DO that with NINE" said the
King, pointing to his high leather boots.
Inc hlng and Queen stayed about an
hour. which probably was the longest
visit ever paid of this .kinU. When they
went away a string Of sailors lined
the right of the pathway to the car
rage, while soldiers did the same on
the left The King walked down the
right side and stopped to chat with
half a dozen sailors, while the Queen
talked with soldiers, and when they rot
halfway down the path they exchanged
sides.
The King was dressed in a khaki uni
fern and the Queen wore gray tailor
made suit and a mauve hat with a
white feather The King asked the
sailors many questions about their
ships and insignia, remarking that they
were different from the English, while
the Queen showed interest in their
hats and asked whether the men were
on furlough and when they had to re-
turn, and also how they liked England.
The King and Queen also gave good,
hearty democratic handshakes to the
men they talked to of sometimes as
much as half a dozen movements of
the arm. The royalties were sent away
with rousing American cheer.
King Much Impressed
With the men in the hut were also
several hundred American women vol
unteers, with sprinkling Of men who
are on duty to-day serving Allied SOL
diers and sailors. The King was much
Impressed because the hut was open
to. all the Allied nations, and waited
while soldiers and sailors of dozen
different nations we're pointed out.
Hut officials whose duty was to re-
ceive the King and Queen say that
they dreaded the ordeal when the mes
sage came through that they were COM
ing, but that decided them to be simple
and democratic. The result was that
probably for the first time in the lives
of the King and Queen they actually
enjoyed visit of this kind, and they
were both smiling and laughing during
the whole hour that they were there.
