UNITED EASTERN
 SHIPS BULLION

Last Wednesday the United Eastern shipped It's fourth bar of bullion to the mint, the bar weighing about $5O,- 900. The big mill is turning out bull lion at the rate of about S18O,OOO monthly, the capacity of the big mill being taxed in the handling of the rich product. The mine is capable of greatly increasing it's output, but the mill cannot handle any larger amount than it is doing at present. Greater water supply will have to be brought in for the mill and crushing and tank capacity will have to be increased.
 The drifts on the deep level have passed into the big ore body, we un- derstand, and the values persist. This new level gives the mine 300 feet of backs that will add many thousands of tons to the reserves of the prop erty, sufficient to keep the mill crowd ed with ore for at least two years to come. The milling value of the ore is close to SPA and the saving is very high.
 The United Eastern has one of the most economic homogeneous in the mine fields of Arizona.

BIG AUTO TRUCK
 GOES INTO DITCH

Earl Alderson, teamster, had a very narrow escape last Saturday from what might have proved fatal acci- dent. Anderson is hauling the hoist ing equipment for the Twins mine, re- gently taken over by M. B. Dudley and associates of New York.
 When about one mile below King man on a sharp curve on the main highway, the brakes of Alderson's truck failed to respond and the truck commenced to back down a steep grade. Alderson stuck to his post un- til the truck began to topple over the bank. He then jumped and landed between two huge boulders just a few feet beyond the truck and hoist which were piled up in mass in deep gully. Beyond a few scratches he was unhurt. The road at the point where the accident occurred is very narrow and dangerous. The truck was pulled out Wednesday and the hoist yester- day. One fywheel of the hoist was completely demolished and some ot the smaller fittings put out of com mission. The truck was comparative ly undamaged.

.M'CRACKEN SILVER MINES .
 ELECT NEW OFFICERS

Last Tuesday morning the share holders of the McCracken Silver Mines
 company held the annual election of officers at the mines, at McCracken Hill, and elected the old board. The following shareholders were present:
 W. B. Van Horn and William Col lins, Indiana Harbor, Indiana; Dr. Henry Mather, Chicago; L. Hoffman, Kingman; Dr. George H. Hoskins, Whiting, Ind; H. K. Dotson, Los An geles, Cal; John w. Reinmann, Ox- hard Cal, and J. H. Hoffman, Los Angeles. The new officers are w.. B. Van Horn, president; Dr. Henry Mather, vice president; J. H. Hoff- man, secretary-treasurer and general The gentlemen passed through Kingman on their way home Tuesday evening, and expressed them selves well pleased with conditions at the mine.
 The company has been driving tunnel in on one of the smaller veins with a view to opening the big vein about 800 feet from the portal and now are in close to the contact with the big ore body. Considerable ore has been opened along this vein, and when the larger vein is entered it is expected that a great body of high grade lead-silver ore will be encoun- tered. Enough ore has been opened to keep a large milling plant in ore for many months, and it is now pro- posed to erect such mill at once.
 The new milling plant has already been designed and is to handle 100 tons of ore daily. It will be equipped with dry concentrators and the power will be furnished by oil burning en- zines. The same class of mill has been found very economical in the

THRIFT STAMP DRIVE
 NETS NEARLY S2OO0

Who said the Thrift Stamps drive would be failure? Whoever predict ed defeat for the drive that was to be pulled off last Saturday reckoned without the spirit of the people of Kingman. Had it not been for the "cold blanket" affair of the evening before the amount of money secured by the committee in charge of the af- fair would have been doubled. As it was the receipts, when they are all in will total fully S2O0O. The wheels of fortune and other selling contrivances down town took in about S854. At the Elks' dance the sales amounted to a total of S630.38, and the other sales brought the total up to close to the $2000 mark. Men who never patron ized the stamp market before got busy in buying when they saw how easy it was to buy something worth while, and give our Uncle Sammy a boost
 The men and women who stood bravely behind the sale of stamps all day and late into the evening of last Saturday deserve all praise, and they may know that all true patriots wish that there were many more like them throughout the nation. Our country is at war and needs every dollar that the people can spare to maintain the boys in the field and to prepare them so completely that they may make their fight winning one. No sacri- flee is too great for the brave fellows that are giving up their lives daily that our country and our women folk may be safeguarded from the dastard- ly Hun. And Kingman can well feel that it is doing its bit in the way of getting funds for the war. Oatman and Chloride are also in the game and are sure to see that the boys that have gone from their camps are well pro vided for.

tied the same places twice. I note a constant centralizing on the supreme idea that everything must be subordi- mated to the one purpose of commun- ity and personal support of the war program. 1 can see the constant growth of this sentiment, the elimi- nation of plans and schemes that have no direct bearing on this enthusiastic support of the war program and a growing determination to concentrate all effort on these lines.
 If there is much of a pacifist ele- ment in this country, I don't run across it. Everywhere I go I find people determined in the idea that this war must be fought through to a decisive victory, and all means must be bent to this end"
 Under the auspices of the Pasadena Board of Trade, a meeting was held yesterday afternoon in the auditorium of the Y. M. c. A. of that city and Dr. Scherer and Meyer Bloomfield, member of the United States Shipping Board, heading the industrial service department, were the speakers. The chairman was s.

GETS VERDICT
 AGAINST SANTA FE

In the trial of Edward M. Carrow against the Santa Fe, tried in the U. S. court at Prescott last week, the jury returned a verdict in favor of Carrow for the sum of $500. Mir. Car row had sued the railroad company on account of injuries received by him near Adamana, New Mexico, a few years ago. He was bringing in large number of cattle from New Mexico, and was riding in the train caboose. In some unaccountable manner the ca boose became detached from the train and the automatic air brought it to such a sudden stop that he was thrown against the front end of the car and severely injured. He sued for S20,000 damages.
 I. M. George, Dr. T. R. White, Mir. and Mrs. E. M. Carrow, were the Kingman witnesses in the case, and Dr. A. L. Hilton of Columbus, New Mexico.

AN UNSUCCESSFUL
 JAIL DELIVERY

Last evening Sheriff Cohenour and Deputy W. H. Rivers met with an ad- venture that netted them one more prisoner in their hotel. They had been advised of an escape from the Yava- pal county jail and soon had the fel- low in jail. Late in the evening they were attracted by the suspicious ac- tions of a fellow who was hanging around the jail and while the fellow was trying to get out of the way of Rivers he ran into Sheriff Cohenour, who showed a gun into his midrift and ordered "hands up." The fellow had handful of saws in his posses sion which he was trying to pass into the jail. He gave his name as Daw- son, but the other fellow refused to give his name. He is being held for Sheriff Young of Yavapai, and the other one will be held for a hearing,

WORD FROM
 ''OVER THERE''

A letter came to hand this week from Private B. A .Schilling, who is with Go. D, Fist Engineers, American Expeditionary Forces in France.
 Schilling is well known to all of the residents about here, having served as a fireman and engineer on the Santa Fe. He tells of an uneventful trip across, intermingled with which there were several "sub" scares, but all of which proved to be only scares. The beauty of the new country is impress ed upon him, but he says that he has no inclination to forfeit his citizenship with the good old U S. A., and that he will be willing to come home when the Kaiser" and his crew have been taught that world dominion is but a fancy.

FRANK LACEY
 IS SENTENCED

Frank Lacey, who was convicted of manslaughter for the killing of George Smith near Oatman, last January, and who was tried in the superior court of Yavapai county twas sentenced last week Friday by Judge Sweeney to an indeterminate sentence of from one to five years. It is understood that there will be no appeal.
 Frank Lacey was a constable at Oatman and tried to stop the car of George Smith, said to be loaded with booze, early one morning in January. The car failed to stop when ordered and Lacey fired a gun loaded with BIB shot at the flying car and killed Smith. Lacey is supposed to be in bad con- dition with tuberculosis.

bars of bullion weighing S6O,OOO. This
 was the cleanup of the mill for two weeks.
 We were allowed a glimpse of the report of the Tom Reed directors to the shareholders, which will be read at the annual meeting of the sharehold- CTS in Kingman next week, and feel gratified to know that everything the Miner has published about that great property is verified. Even the assays across the big vein are identical with the first report published in this pa per.O Not only have the statements made by the Miner come up to every assertion in the Tom Reed report, but we find that when MT. Phelps took charge of the property there was an indebtedness of $25, ,000 hanging over the property, which has been wiped out and treasury of S50,O00 built up. The report indicates that it is the in tention of, the company to raise a shaft to the surface from the new ore body and put in tram line from that point to the mill, making it possible to develop the property at a lower cost, and also lessen the cost of ex- tracting the ore. With the new devel- opment completed the Reed will be in shape to produce economically, and the mill will soon be in shape to handle the additional ore, even though it be much higher in grade than that on which the mill runs were formerly made.

GEO. A. BONELLf
 SUES SANTA 'FE

George A. BOnelli, of Kingman, brought suit against the Santa Fe Railroad company some time ago for damage sustained when a trainload of cattle that he was bringing from Florence to Kingman was wrecked near Cedar Glade, in Yavapai county. The trial of the cause was heard in the federal court at Prescott last week, many cattlemen from this county hay ing been called as witnesses. Among these were William Epperson of Chlo- ride; W. E. Frost of Kingman; G. T. Duncan of Blackberry, and W. B. Ste phens of the Sandy. The suit was for $24,000.

MASSIVE ORE BODIES
 IF THE TOM REED MINE

The Tom Reed ore body has now reached total length of 500 feet and the ore is still as rich as it was in our last report. The entire length of this massive body of ore averages S54 in gold. The drift is still being car ried to the north or west and indica- tions point to its reaching more than 600 feet in ore. To the east the drift has entered the fault, but effort is be- ing made to trace out and locate the ore body after it was cut off by the throw of the vein. At the point where it was lost the ore was of as good grade as any found along the drift, being somewhat higher in grade than at the crosscut.
 In the winze on the Grey Eagle the ore is now averaging better than $50 and the body appears to be more per manent. This winze is to be carried down to another level and the ore body exploited. It is believed that the ore body in the Grey Eagle and that in the new vein is analogous, the throw from the Grey Eagle making the new ore body. The development of the two ore bodies will sooner or later demonstrate their relationship and their future ore possibilities.
 In the big mill the ore is now mill ing out far beyond the most sanguine expectation of the man agement and as a result the bull lion production is growing in propor- tiOn every day. Thursday there was shipped through Kingman to the mint
