Tin Cans Were Valuable rh>n

1t Is within the memory of many people on the farms that there was a time when tin cans were not too plen- ttful. Now and then canned goods were bought, and fo1 the empty cans plenty of uses were found. For in- stance, tomato plants were started in them, standing in the sunny kitchen window long before the garden was clear of snow: they were convenient for holding paint when small lob had to be done, and the small boys treasured them for holding their bait for those adventurous and ever.to.be remembered fishing excursions of early summer. About all the tin cars that came to farmhouse twenty-five or thirty years ago were put to good use.

ECLIPSE OF SUN TO BE
 VISIBLE HERE JUNE s
CFrom Saturdays Dailv)

People living in Prescott and else where in the north part of Arizona will have an opportunity of seeing a partial eclipse of the sun which the weather sharks and sky gazers state will take place at 4:l5 on June Sth. In certain parts of the United States the eclipse will be total, the path of totality being sweep of territory running from the State of Washing ton to the tip of the Florida penin- sula. The eclipse Is to last but a short time, and will be caused by the moon passing between the sun and the earth. The phenomena of total eclipse is rather uncommon, and in the path of the totality the light of the sun will be swinked out for a period of about two minutes, during which time a strange and rather un- canny twilight will prevail and people will look like corpses going about m the bluiSh beams.
 Arizona Is SO far removed from the path oi the total eclipse that there will be little if any noticeable dark ness accompanying the crossing of the moon and sun. With the aid of d smoked glass. however, the black spot on the sun caused by the wanderingS of the lunar orb ought to be plainly ,iSibIc

COUNTRY CHURCH CAN
 AID U. s. TO WIN WAR

WASHINGTON, May 16.-"The present war emergency has developed many ways of which organizations within country churches can assist the government and at the same time assist themselves" says the Federal Council of Churches of Christ in America. It suggests that Sunday school classes raise a pig or two, members of the class dividing the responsibility of the animals care. This would net the class handsome profit and increase tho needed supply of fats. Classes could also invest in War Savings Stamps each week or month, according to the size of the class"
 Another suggestion is the church var garden, whereby portion of the church land would be turned over to the Ladies Aid society. Many of
 hesc women look after their own gardens at home, in order that their husbands may do the heavier farm work"

PROMOTER MINE TO THE
 FRONT; MILL COMING
(From Thursdays QoiIy)

Development of the Promoter in Crook canyon which has been under hcadway for the past two months by the Ford Gold and Silver Mining Company, has been attended with such gratifying results in new ore bodies opened up and consequent heavy pro- duction, that Lane mill has been ordered and in a short time will be in action. with a capacity to treat daily 50 tons of ore.
 The plant is now being dismantlcd at a mining camp in Maricopa county It is practically new. (. F. Warren. one of the sellers, was in Prescott yesterday, and stated the property IS exceeding anticipations, as depth IS given. Pannings, he says, from the new workings in the oxidized zone show surprising values in the free milling content, while as depth is given sulphides are coming in that assay high in gold.
 A system of thorough exploration has started, and a full crew is at work, to be increased as soon as under ground conditions will permit. Mir. Warren Is retained by the company owing to his familiarity with the property, which has been active for several years. He also stated yester- day that several hundred tons of fair grade of free milling ore are on the dump while production is assured now for months to come to maintain the mill in action.

 CONFINED IN NEW JAIL
(From Thursdays Daily)

For the first time during its II years of existence, the old Yavapai county jail is without an inmate, all of the men having been trans fcrred to the new quarters on the top floor of the new court house. The change was made yesterday after noon, the prisoners being taken over to their new lodgings in groups Of five or six at time. Each man car ricd his bedding and certain Of his treasured possessions, and before be- ing locked in the new tanks was thoroughly searched for any weapons or saws which he might have carried. No articles of this sort were found, although many of the men had sue cceded in getting money since they were placed in jail, and about $50 in paper was taken away from them yesterday.
 The work of wrecking the old bas- tile will begin at once. Representa- tivcs of the Pauley Jail Company arc here and today will begin the work of tearing out the old tank for the pun pOSG Ol ShippiliS II DaSh tO thS factory at St Louis for alterations.

State Game Warden c. NJ. Willard announced yesterday that he had de- cidcd to station a deputy warden i'll this city, and hereafter O. r. Hicks will patrol the local landscape in an effort to put an end to illegal shoot ing of all sorts. One of the big jobs which Mir. Hicks will have on his hands will be to educate the hunters to the fact that the dove shooting season will not open until July 18th. Most hunters arc of the belief that the birds can be killed after June lst, but this Is not the case, and the July date is the proper one on which to begin shooting the little birds. The doves are said to be unusually thick in most parts of the county this spring, and by the time the season opens there should be some mighty good shooting. Some of the ranch CTS to the south of the city state that the birds are literally eating them out of house and home and they will welcome the advent of the season when the birds can be killed without a fear of violating the law.

M|CKY SCANLON LOCKED UP IN
 COUNTY JAIL
LUMINARY AND STAFF CORRESPONDENT FOR DUNBARS IN JUG TO AWAIT RIAL IN
 UNITED STATES COURT.
(From Fridays Daily)

Alicky Scanlon, chief luminary of the Wobbly circles in the Jerome dis trict, IS now viewing passing events from behind the bars of the Yavapai county jail, having been lodged in this brand-new institution yesterday afternoon by Deputy U. s. Marshal Harry Carlson to await trial in the federal court on a charge of possess ing explosives without having a U. $. license therefor. Scanlon, who was held to the federal court on We'd nesday by U. s. Commissioner Ruth erford at Jerome, was brought to Prescott in company with four other prisoners who are to be held here on various charges. Micky was as tame T prisoner as was ever lodged in the Prescott jail, his demeanor of yes terday being in marked contrast to that displayed on the day of his ar rest When taken into custody, Scan lon became enragcd, and tore up a perfectly good S8 shirt which Officer Carlson was wearing.
 'Scanlon IS charged with having in his possession 2l sticks of dynamite after the local explosives liccnsor had refused to grant him permit to han dle the dynamite because of Micky's anarchistic proclivities. The dcfcnd- ant is said to have boastcd of the fact that he intended to keep all the powder he wanted regardless of the fact that he could not have permit, and 1t is these boasts which appar- ently led to his downfall
 Micky has been one of the chief cX- ponents of unrest in the Jerome camp for many moons. Last July at the time the band of Wobblies was given the hobo's rush out of this county and dumped on the iratc citizens or Kingman, Micky assumed leadership of the gang, and acted as the spokcs- man when the bunch reached King man, uncorking a lot of chin music in an effort to justify the actions Of the Wobbly element during the trou- ble of last summer. Somehow or other Micky managed 10 sneak back into Jerome after the excitement had died down, and since that date, has spent most of his time acting in the role of staff correspondent for Dun Ddl . " GNAiS dllu dlSO dNtlliS dS siSNiil for a number of I. w. w. publica- tions.
