RESIGNS AS MEMBER OF
 HIGHWAY COMMISSION
(From Thursdays DaiIy.)

(From Thursdays Daily)
 The first break in the highway sit uation occurred yesterday when the clerk of the board of supervisors re- ceived the telegraphic resignation ot James E. Bark of Humboldt, ap- pointed but two nights before as the representative of the Humboldt, Dewey, Mayer, Cordes and Black Canyon district on the county high way commission.
 MT. Bark gave as his reason for not serving, the fact that he intended to be out of the state on business and pleasure all during the coming year, and as the commission is one that involves a lot more work than honor, he didn't feel it right that he should remain a member without being available for duty.
 MT. Bark was one of the most con- sistent supporters of the highway improvement program when 1t was first publicly discussed at meeting of the county chamber of commerce early in the summer. In fact, his support of the proposition lacked lit- tie of being spectacular.
 Chairman Jaeger of the board of supervisors said last evening that he was much surprised and more dis appointed at the resignatoin Of the Humboldt man, as he said he had considered him not only an efficient supporter of the good roads program, but a power in the community III be- half of the proposed bond issue. It will be necessary to call the board to- gether again soon to replace MT. Bark. Other members of the com- mission are H. w. Lewis, banker, ot Jerome; R. w. Wingleld, merchant, of Camp Verde; Charlie Hooker, cat tleman, of Prescott, and Barney Smith, former supervisor.

 Robert H. Rinehart, the special representative of the American Al- tomobile association in Fl Paso, who will be the official referee of the race. expects to leave Fl Paso soon for Douglas, Bisbee, Tucson and Phoenix, for the purpose of selecting the route and mapping tt. Several ron1tes are under consideration, ard the progressof road work on diiter- ent highways and the practicabllity of others will determine the selection. On this trip Mir. Rinehart will select the checkers at the different towns through which the racers will pass, and will appoint control officials at Bisbee, where the racers will spend the night.
 The entire trip probably will take about two weeks.
 Fl Paso automobile men already have raised a sufficient fund to care for the expenses of the race, while the automotive trades and highways department of the Chamber Of Com merce has put up $2,5OO toward the purse fund.

 AWAKENS
(From Thursdays Daily)


 Reviving of the famous old Tus- cumbia silver mine is a reality, the first shipment of over 5000 pounds of material supplies and other ar ticles leaving Prescott yesterday for the camp now being established. Be hind this movement are George King don, manager of the United Verde Extension; E. w. Galbreath and other prominently known operators of Jerome.
 It is understood that capital is available for carrying out explora- ton for months ahead, and with the practical ability of those now inter ested the outlook for this property is attended with glowing possibilities
 Preceding the closing of this bond and lease deal, MT. Kingdom devoted several days in making critical ex- aminations of old workings and sur face showings, while MT. Gilbreath likewise conducted all elaborate sys- tenn or observations, as well as as certaining a broad conception of the naturalization by an elaborate line of samp1ing that required over two weeks by a large force of miners each and every movement proving satisfactory, and action to begin op- erating has resulted. The above mining people have secured practi- cally every share of outstanding stock, and this action of those inter ested, combined with the determine ton to revive such high grade property of early days is naturally weighed in mining circles of this felc as one of the most important in sil yer mining that has ever been con summated in recent years.
 The Tuscumbia in the late 7Os ano early sos had remarkable product i've ability, and even exceeded the Peck in actual bullion output. It t situated on the northern slope of tho Bradshaws and about four miles yves of the Peck. Like all mines enjoying bonanza rating in the long ago, it internal life was attended with strife litigation followed, and1 finally tht property suspended. Subsequently leasers took charge, the high grade , zones were. chlorided, and finally th' inevitable occurred in it being aban doned he new operators will frs establish communication to the works by constructing a new wagon road of about 1000 feet in length and coincidently nino work starts also. Principal shareholders of the Tuscumbia are Frank H. William: and B. H. Smith of this city, James H.
