Two Ring Battles
for Thanksgiving

NEW YORK, Oct. 14.-(United
Press. Two big championship fights
have practically been arranged for
Thanksgiving Day.
Benny Leonard, worlds light weight
champion, will meet Lew Tender, the
Philadelphia lightweight, in fifteen
round, no-decision bout at New Haven.
Pete Herman, bantam champion, will
meet either Pal Moore or Joe Lynch
at New Orleans.
The Leonard Tender mill has the
promise of being one Of the seasons
best battles. The Quaker lightweight
despite the whipping he received from
Willie Jackson has everything that
brands him as a real candidate for the
crown worn by Billy Gibson's cham
pion. Tender has been yelping for a
fight for months and so thoroughly
convinced the fGns of his sincerity
that they made demand for chance
for the Sleepy City boy that Gibson
couldn't turn down.
Pete Herman wants to get back into
the good graces of the fans who have
been panning him of late. He has
agreed to fight anyone on Turkey
Day that his manager will sign up.
Hell take either Pal Moore, of Jimmy
Wilde anne, or Joe Lynch, the New
York flash Rather than have the
two aspiring little fellows run the
risk of broken limbs in the rush after
the match he suggests that Moore and
Lynch get together about Oct. 20 in
some ring, and decide who gets to
put on the gloves for the crack at
the championship.
Fans who saw that go between
Lynch and the champion at New Ha-
ven were almost one in declaring that
the New York boy made the southern
er look foolish. Herman retained his
championship by running away, they
alcimed. # Lynch and the little Pete
do get together in a bout of reason
able length, the following of the
Gotham scrapper will lay odds that
their idol will bring home the crown.

Rooster Stops
Wild Volcano
(By United Press.)

HILO, ISLAND OF HAWAII, B!
Mail. Owners of coal black game
cocks are keeping out an eye to see
that the chicken house is locked Sc
curely every night.
And that's all because the volcano
Of Kilauea is now the most active il
has been for 35 years.
Six months ago Kilauea was sput
tering away in its mile wide bowl OF
burning, molten rock, with the leve
of the flaming crimson sea of boiling
ava 900 feet from the top of the
crater.
The night that Secretary of the
Navy Daniels and his party paid Kill
auea visit-the latter part of Au-
gust-the level of the seething lava
AXE was about 50 feet below the
crater's top.
Several overflows already have oc-
Cured. A cone which once jutted
500 feet above the crater's> top has
melted away into the sea of fire. Two
hours after the Secretary and his
party left the volcano the rock wall
between the main crater and Sec
ond smaller one, caved in, joining
The craters.
And Kilauea is still going strong.
As to the connection of all this
with coal black game cocks? Oh,
hats very simple.
Many years ago, when the nslands
first were becoming a white mans
and, Kilauea became angry. 1t
roared and Kissed and sputtered and
the ground shook. Then the lava
overhowed and moved slowly down
the mountain side toward Hilo.
The native Hawaiians had been
Christians but a comparatively short
time. Their fright knew no bounds,
for the island legends were full of the
tales of what Kilauea did when Mad
anne Pele, the goddess who lived in
Kilauea's crater, became angry.
So the Hawaiians prayed that the
flow would stop. But it didn't.
Then they danced, But that was
ineffective.
Finally, forgetting their Christian
ity for time, they sent party tC
canoe to Honolulu to consult a few
remaining priests of the days when
they all worshipped the strange, South
Sea dieties.
Throw a black rooster into the
lava flow," was the advice they
brought back.
The sleekest, shiniest cock on the
island of Hawaii was picked for the
sacrifice, and while the maidens
danced, the warriors cast the squak.
ing bird into the base of the lava
flow.
In an hour the flow had stopped
Madame Pele, the most feared god.
dess of the island, evidently had been
satisfied with chicken dinner.
American residents of the island
believe that if there is ever another
big lava flow, coal black roosters will
come into demand once more.

BLACKBERRY MINE
 ONE OF THE BEST

Last Saturday the mining editor visited the Blackberry mill in com pany of G. R. Franklin, and looked that big plant over. This mill is one of the best appointed plants in the state, having all the features of the successful plants in other parts of the country and new ideas to meet the requirements of the particu- lar ores that the Blackberry mine produces.
 The ore is crushed near the shaft head through a big Blake crusher, thence being carried to the mill bins over a belt conveyor. From the bins it goes through chutes to the big ball mill, where it is crushed to better than 100 mesh. It then passes in stages through the oil Notation and vanners to the dewatering devices, where the water is pressed out and the sand cake is sent out over belt conveyors to the tailings pits, with the metallic content practically ex- tracted. The plant is operated by central power plant, located few hundred feet away, which plant also furnishes power for the mines. This power plant is one of the most up- to-date generators of power in the country, there being three separate units, each equal to all demands that mine and mill may make upon them.
 The mill and power plant were designed and built under the direc- ton of F. w. Sherman, one of the best known mill men of the country.
 J. H. Rosenberg and Jay w. Gates of Kingman, were also visitors at the camp last Saturday.

.D|SMANTL|NC OLD
 N'CRACK|N MILL

One of the oldest mills in the state is going into the junk pile, the Mo Cracken mill, which was erected at Signal about 1875. The lumber and machinery going into the mill was shipped from San Francisco by way of the Gulf of California, thence by river boats to Aubrey Landing, near the mouth of Bill Williams Fork, whence it was hauled by big teams to Signal. The mill was of the old fashioned type, the stamps weighing 900 pounds each in five stamp bar- teries, being complete 2O-stamp mill with pans and settlers and cleanup pans. The method employ ed was a wet crush, the pulp being allowed to settle in large tanks and then loaded into the pans, each pan taking about 5000 pounds.
 The ore handled was heavily oxidiz- ed and the saving of values was high, as the tailings at the mill will not run above six ounces silver, while the raw ore ran from SO ounces to 1900 ounces to the ton. This ore was hauled distance of nine miles and the mill handled from so to 100 tons daily. For years a watchm1n was maintained at the mill, but one after the other died and at last it was not thought worth while to in cur the expense. It is now being taken out at junk,

NEWS NOTES from COUNTY TOWNS.
M. Trun1beU

The little community of Mt. Trum- bull is situated in the Arizona strip, in Mohave county, north of the Grand Canyon.
 The future is quite promising. We are overcoming some of the hard ships we had to contend with when we first settled here. The scarcity Of water was the main draw back, but we are doing all we can in building reservoirs and cisterns, so we will have water during the dry season. The ranchers around here have been very liberal in letting us haul water from their reservoirs, especially MT. Brink and Mir. Schultz. This almost unknown country is very valuable for stock raising, and there is room here for a good many home steaders that wish to raise stock.
 We solicited the community for cash and labor to build school house, and the people all gave very freely; so we have a nice little school house which cost us $214.29 and $1704 to the good. Our little settlement is nearly two years old, and we have a good school going here, and teacher that is capable of the same.
 We see by the Utah papers that the Utah state engineer has been in Phoenix trying to exchange land with Arizona. As I understand it, Utah wants to give the territory south of the San Juan river, for the Arizona strip north of the Grand Canyon. I hope Arizona will con- sider we'll before they give up this valuable grazing land, and give the people of Mohave County a chance to vote on the proposition. The peo- pie of Mt. Trumbull do not like the idea of being transferred to Utah, and we hope our friends of South ern Mohave County will do all they can to help us hold our grand old county. This section of Mohave County pastures thousands of Utah's ,attle and sheep every year, and they pay a very light tax to Arizona, and some do not pay any. If we had 8 good live deputy assessor in this part | 'f our country, we could prove to our grand old state that this strip is worth holding on to.
 Hoping that the people of Mohave County will do all they can to hold this northern part of the country rom Utah.

 field to some disinterested persons and consequently have not had the best results. This is important too, inasmuch as each item and happen ing is reported back to Washington and these things might make some difference as to whether Kingman became a permanent landing field or not.
 Lieutenant Aubineau, when asked whether he thought commercial aero- nautics would prove practical said that he thought they would. That the day of the airplane had come and that in two or three years avia- ton will play great part in com mercial transportation.
 He said that after all flying is not such a hazardous. game. Statistics show that for every flyer trained in this country, there has been but one fatality for every 273jO00 miles flown.
 This, in view of all efforts made by agents in the pay of the German government. These agents, some of whom were in the service of Uncle Sam, would clip the wires and soder them together again in such man: ner as to make it difficult to notice it. Another trick they would work was to take out the iron bolts and replace them with wooden ones. Either of these things if it went un- noticed would cost a life or maybe two. Consequently a most rigid ex- animation had to be made of every plane before 1t went up. A few of these spies were caught, but it was very difficult to catch them in the act.
 Lieutenant Aubineau had a rating of A, which was the highest ob- tainable. The rating A permits a fly CT to go to any height he wishes to, B is the rating given flyers who can go to height of 15,000 feet and c to 5000.
 There are two Mohave County boys that we know of, who received the A rating, Lieutenant Aubineau and Lieutenant Perkins.
