SEEK ID COMPEL RESTORAT|ONO OF
 MINING STOCK
LON HALL AND COPPER HILL ARIZONA COMPANY
 ALLEGE IN COURT SUIT THAT FRED BRADLEY
 DIDN'T FILL CONTRACT.
(From Tuesdays Daily.)

Lon D. Hall and the Copper Hill Arizona Mining Company have filed suit in the Superior court against Fred l.. Bradley, formerly we'll known mining promoter of this city, the action having been instituted for the purpose of compelling the defend ant 10 restore to the treasury of the Copper Hill organization a block of 240,OOO shares of the capital stock of the corporation. Bradley, it IS said, having failed to comply with the agreement made at the time the sc- curities were turned over to him. Hall, who owned group of six claims in the Agua Fria district, en- tered into a contract with the de- fendant a year or so ago, whereby the latter was to take over the group, organize a company and work the property. For such services, Bradley was to receive 25OOOO shares of stock. The Copper Hill Arizona Mining Company was formed and Bradley proceeded to sell 10000 shares of his holdings for Sl,000, using the money, ostensibly. to pay his expenses 10 New York where he said he was go- ing for the purpose of interesting eastern capital in the mine. Because of the fact that Bradley was never heard of again by Hall or any of his associates in the deal, the company came 10 the conclusion that the pro moter had long since ceased all el- forts at promoting" the company. Consequently, the plaintiffs want the remaining 240,000 shares of stock re- turned to them. As to the Sl,GO worth which Bradley had sold. the court is asked to use it's own judg- ment as to whether they should be cancelled and returned to the plaintiffs or left in the hands of the respective purchasers. An injunction is also sought to prevent Bradley disposing ofany of the remainging shares or at tempting to remove any part of them from the Prescott State Bank here, where the securities are at present re- posing.
 Apple Crop Causes Suit.
 James Ford. who owns the land upon which the Fairoaks Orchards are located, yesterday brought suit against R. B. Quinn, Andrew J. Dickerson and the Fairoaks Orchard Company, asking the court to straighten out a muddle which has resulted over the division of the Fair oaks apple crop of this year. The complaint states that the plaintiff leased the orchard property to Dick erson for the season of 1918, with the understanding that the latter should receive one-third of the boxed apple crop. The plaintiff alleges that the latter failed to carry out the agree ment, and the court is asked to com pei the defendant Dickerson to turn over to Ford two-thirds of the crop or it's equivalent in cash.

entertainment to all who were FORUM
ate enough to be present at the high

ment given this spring by high

the Red Cross fund and, as someone
remarked after the performance, the
young people certainly outdid them
selves.
To the soloists, especially, COM
mendation is due for the creditable
manner in which they carried out
their parts and they were ably sup
ported by the accompanist, Miss
Melba Spinney, and by appropriately
costumed choruses of girls, artists,
sailors, and townspeople. The sailors
"Iiornpipe" and chorus "Who ever
Caught Jackie Fast Asleep" called
forth much applause.
