LEMONS LEAVES ON ..
 IMPORTANT MISSION
(From Thursdays Daily.)


 The close of the European war will be Of untold benefit to mines and mining in this field, and the project ed smelter of the Anglo-Saxon Min- ing and Reduction Co.,, will be realiz. ed, was the frank statement made yes terday by George c. Lemons, who left for London, England, where he is called by financiers who are to be- come interested.
 Mir. Lemons also stated that he had been compelled to remain in the United States during hostilities, and since the war has been permitted to make only one trip abroad, and that during the time when this nation was neutral. He gave the following in terview, which will be of very much interest in this community:
 During the past week my Lon don associates advised me that the Anglo-Saxon matters have been re- vived, and requested me to report in person for general review of the proposition. This action means this: The funds held during the war for internal purposes, are to be released for investment anywhere, and to clean up this financial snag is prob able the reason why I am wanted for final consultation. It is indeed de cidedly agreeable to me to know that the war is over, that early action is probable in carrying out plans sub mitted four years ago in this mining and reduction undertaking for the Prescott field. There is now no doubt of the consummation of this big movement, and my options on many mines near Prescott have been re- newed."
 Mir. Lemons also stated he had been finding out" in Prescott for the past year, perfecting an invention for rais- ing sunken ships, and his plant would be utilized in recovering the Lusitania in which he would be interested, the Celtic Trust Company, of London, having been awarded the contract by the English government. This huge undertaking will begin probably carly in the coming year. and the salvage will reach to over $l00,000,000 in gold and cargo carried. "On this oc- casion," said Mir. Lemons, "I will have two Prescott girls to touch the button to start the machinery nov ing, and they arc the Misses Vera and Helena Voge They are to come over there as guests of Mrs. Lemons. Con- lrluding Mir. Lemons stated that plans and specifications of the Prescott shelter are preserved, and the mining investment feature of the company will be passed on finally by engineers of this country, England and South Africa. He expects to return 10 re- side here after all details are closed up. But, said he the financial situa- ton is what plcases me, and the prop psition 10 my way of reasoning it out, by cablegrams I have received re- gently, is of a conclusive nature that the day has at last arrived for carly and favorable action"
 Mir. Lemons has been given a per init 10 go abroad at once, and until ocean traffic is resumed his wife is to reside at San Francisco, for which city she left yesterday

YAVAPA| COUNTY IS WINNER OF
 HONOR HUT.


 final figures for the United War Work campaign which closed last evening will not be far from 250 per cent of the old quota allotted the state by the New York headquarters. That is, the old quota has been doub- ly subscribed and so per cent has been added thereto for good meas ure.
 The state campaign managers feel that Arizona has done its best, and if any other state in the final account ing is found in first place it at least had to "go some"
 Official figures last evening, with several counties to hear from and no complete returns from. any county, showed S5S1,615 already reported. New York is carrying the Arizona quota at the old figures given out early last summer Based upon that old quota, Arizona now has 243 per cent and over. Delaware "A hours 2go had 232 per cent.
 It seems probable that when all returns are in Arizona will have pass ed S5oO.000 and possibly reached S6OOOOO.
 One thing is practically certain and that is that two honor huts with the most advanced arm of the American army abroad will bear the name of Arizona as the result of what the people of the Baby State have done for the United War Work campaign.
 One of these huts is already earn ed because Arizona was one of the first, if not the very first state to cross the line of the minimum mark, and the first II states to accomplish this are each to have honor huts nam ed after them. The second honor hut comes, ii, in the final figures, Ari- zona is found to be among the II states which farthest passed their minimum quota.
 Yavapai and Gila Win.
 Final figures will be needed to show what four counties in Arizona will have honor trucks named after them The four counties in the state which, corporation gifts not includ- ed, farthest pass their minimum 1uotas will be awarded these honors. Yavapai county is certain to be one of these and Gila is sure to be a sec ond.
 Maricopa county's total is So3, 3,2SS, which includes corporation gifts of T,0C0. For the purpose of the hon. or truck competition, Maricopa has a total of SS6,2SS, which is IA per cent of her minimum quota, one of the best showings made in the state.
 The grand totals of all counties, i'm cluding last evening reports, were; Apache, S3,465: Cochisc, Sl06OO0; Co., conino, Sl6,OOo: Gila. SlO2,3O7; Ora ham, Sll 1000: Greenlee, S4S, S,5S0; Mari copa, So3,2 ,2SS; AIohave. S6,566: Maya 10, S1l $50: Pima S50,56o: Pinal S52,- SIS: Santa Cruz, S10,317; Yavapai, S60,000: Yuma, Sl0,325.
 No reports from Apache, Navajo, Santa Cruz or Yuma had been receiv- ed up to late hour last evening. When these counties report. the to- tai may be raised considerably.
 Work of the Boys and Girls.
 Up to last evening reports show that 7,402 boys and girls have en- rolled in the Victory Boys and Girls league Their total pledges amount to 27,3S3. Of the number stated 3,47o are boys who had pledg- ed Sl1,76O and 1923 are girls who have DIedped S1S623

HAUBER THEATRE TODAY

The most noticeable feature in this production of Camille" is the capable exposition of the cast and it's thor oughly consistent interest and heart appeal. Little need be said in ref erence to the story as it's popularity upon the speaking stake and in book form has familiarized the story to the present-day amusement public to such a great extent as to require no additional exposition. Camille" will have it's strongest following among that class of readers who are admir- CTS of Alexander Dumas work, to- gether with many of those who ap- preciate the work of this author as given upon the legitimate stage.
 A word of commendation should, in all justice to the picture, be said in regard to the clever characterization of Theda Bara in the title role. For those who are familiar with the book will readily agree that Miss Bara lands a charm and reality to the character that figuratively brings this immortal work to life. .Theda Bara plays in conservative way, surrounding the character will a veil of sympathy that takes hold and grips the audience from the very be- ginning. Walter Law, who has taken the villainous roles in Fox productions for some time back, is seen in a thoroughly consistent role. Claire Whitney as the sister and Albert Roscoe as Duval, iskewise add fin- ishing touch to an already very sat isfactcry cast.

London, July 15.-A sharp indict- ment of the rulers of Germany by Maximillian Hardin, is contained in a current number of Die Zukunft. The holders of high offices, he is quoted as saying, when it seems useful to themselves, profess to favor a new world order or democracy and nation al peace. but they really are only car rying on the tradition of the power of the sword. "No high parsonage in the German empirt," he says, wishes to see set up league of nations. The continuance of endeavors to conceal this fact has become unnecessary since Brest-Litovsk and Bucharest"

ADJUSTMENTS All advance notices furnished by

BEST THEATRE TODAY

More amusing even than "The Varmint," or Seventeen" is the new Jack Pickford picture, "His Majesty, Bunker Beans," which shows at the Best Theatre today.
 It is a story of a youth who is but stenographer in business office, but who believes that as one think, eth in his heart, so he is. In other- words, Bunker Bean believes in re- incarnation and that he was former ly great king, accordingly he acts as he believes he was wont to act in his other life, with the self-assur- ance and confidence and poise that he believed that was his. And the result is that Bunker Bean does not long remain stenographer but in . very little while has made for tune on Wall Street and has won the boss pretty daughter in the bargain. Which all goes to prove that every one uses only 20 per cent real ability and personality and allows 80 per cent to lie dormant, and that when ono believes he can do a thing, he can usually do 1t. It is picture that will delight any audience and a story, that while amusing, has a big idea back of it. Jack Pickford plays exceedingly well as Bunker Bean, and Louise Huff is attractive and natural as the flapper who believes Bunker Bean all and dore than he thinks he is. Others in fhe cast play unusually we'll.
