Attorney Neil Clark, that he had any thing to do with this latest exploit of his touring car.
 The second blow, said to have been delieyered to the bootlegger syndi- cate came with the arrest of Fred Clemens, who was in possession ar that time of the tank-seated Dodge car. Clemens cash bail was put up by Dawson.
 Moore, who is attached to the de- partment of sanitation and carries a deputy's commission, was on the road this side of Congress Junction when he encountered the booze car. He took the three men into the Juno ton and sent for the sheriff, who brought the aggregation to Prescott.
 Now Have Three Cars.
 The county garage has been en- riched by the addition of three boot leg cars lately, and the sheriff is wishing he had authority to dispose of them at auction. The other two belong to Clemens and to A. L. Nor ton.

 FEDERAL AID BUDGE7

bor fund; S2O0,00 emergency appro- priation; SlOO,OOO Miami-Superior ap- propriation; 25,OOO Williams Clark dale; $5O,OOO Arrow Head Trail ap- propriation; and $155,0O0 bridges and approaches appropriations, most of which are contingent on like amount from the counties; or, in all approxi- mately $1,75O,OOO.
 There is almost a million dollars of Federal money available inn mediately and one and third mil lion next year, or a total of S2,3GO,- 900 up to July 1, 1920.
 "The State will not have the funds to meet all of this Federal Aid, which requires an equal expenditure by tnis State, but our various counties will be glad to double their road funds by securing Federal Aid. We ex- pect more requests from the coun- ties for Federal Aid than can be all loted and we intend to recommend first those which are on the through State routes and benefit the most
  people.
 The passage of Senate Bill 185 would have increased the State road funds some $6OO,OOO additional but might have resulted in the loss of several of the special road and bridge appropriations, so I would judge that we are not short over three of four hundred thousand dollars of the amount originally planned, which means a reduction of about 10 percent on the four million which will be spent the coming year under State direction and control.
 We will need the time between now and July lst to prepare surveys and plans for judicious expenditure of funds then available"

SILVR BONANZA DAYS AR FAST
 RETURNING
BILLY" NEAGLE, FORM ERLY OF PRESCOTT, IS IDENTIFIED WITH BIC WHITE METAL MINE IN NORTH.
CFrom Thursdays Daily)

Oi local interest is the starting of a big mining and milling proposition at HRckberry, near the Yavapai boundary of Mohave county, of which William Neagle is the general man. ager. He made Prescott and Jerome his home for some years and at one time was undersheriff of this coun- ty. The new movement is silver, and according to reports 360-ounce con tent was recovered in the first clean up of the mill, with other by metal values.
 In every sense the mine is rated as a bonanza and Mir. Neagle informed friends that enough ore is blocked out to run the plant for two years on the basis of about 200 tons day.
 An arrival in Prescott during the week stated the parallel of this sil- yer had never been known, and as a result of the big showing many other silver mines of that belt were getting ready to operate. The owners of the property are James Murray, of Butte, one of the most successful of mining men in the west, and Gus Holmes, of Salt Lake City. It is predicted that an old time silver boom in that sec ton of Mohavc county is maturing.

Among the Prescott officers affected are Captain Ed. Mitchell and Lieut. C. NJ. Lyons, and enlisted men there are eaid to be over 250 from Yavapai county.

HOMEMADE GOLD BAR
 ATTRACTS COMMENT
(From Fridays Daiiy.)

Quartz gold in a single bar valued at about SIPS, was exhibited yester- day by George Roach, who stated he had made the, recovery from q mine at the head of Granite creek. The ore was reduced in a mortar and after being banned was retorted in a metallic cup improvised from mater ial on hand.
 The gold by assay has a valuation of SIG an ounce. Roach stated he went into that field during the win ter to placer mine, but water inter fercd with sinking pot holes, and he concluded to prospect a stringer vein coming into the creek bed, the white quartz showing small particles of free gold. The vein widened to three inches and carried red oxide of iron, from which the values were taken.
 He will continue to drive a drift on the vein, and the future output is to be shipped if tonnage values warrant. The bullion in its crudely molded state occasioned comment among many, and recalled a similar transaction wherein Scotty Thomp- son subsisted for many years by pan ming free gold quartz from his mine in Hassayampa district.

BOWMAN VICTIM OF
 THE VERDE TORRENT
(From Thursdav,s DaiIv.l

Caught in the Verde at flood, Henry Nesbitt, a range rider, was drowned near the proposed Horseshoe damsite ill Bloody Basin Sunday morning Particulars of the story were brought to the city and given out yesterday by w. M Coburn, who was with Nesbitt when the accident occurred.
 The two men, accompanied by a Mexican, were attempting to cross the river at a point where it shoaled between a deep pool and series of rapids. Coburn got his horse in mid stream and found it impossible to re- turn to the shore where the, others were about to enter the water Nes- bitt followed driving a pack horse ahead of him. In midstream, his horse lost its footing and threw the rider. Then, both horses and the man went whirling downstream in a smother of foam. Twice, NesbitE came to the surface clinging to the saddle, and the third time he caught the pack horse He then struck out swimming, and although encumbered with chaps, boots and spurs, he made about 50 feet. CoburR was unable to return to the west bank of the stream, and on reaching the east bank. rode downstream trying to get close enough to throw his rope. The bank was high, however, and he could not get close enough to the waters edge. By the time he got to the bank some hundreds of vars below, NesBitt was out of sight
 Coburn and his companion searched for several hours, and Sunday and Monday they had the entire roundup of that district searching. It is thought the body will be found at Granite Reef dam on the Salt River.
 Ncsbitt was about 40 years of age He was unmarried. A brother, Charles Nesbitt and sister, Mrs. w. +. Childers of Globe, survive.
 Oddly enough botn Nesbitt'S horse and the heavily loaded pack animal managed to swim out and save them selves.

JEROME SOLDIER SUCCUMBED ID
 INFLUENZA
(From Fridays Daily)

Judge Dave Foley, of this city, has received a letter from Ed. O'Donnell, dated Camp Merritt, New Jersey, giv- ing particulars of the death at sea of Henry Berry Russell, the Jer- ome mining man with the 27th en- gineers, and the writer says influen- za-pneumonia was the fatal affliction.
 O'Donnell was on the transport with Russell, and he says: The morn we marched from the camp in France to embark for home, Russell got a touch of the flu, and the fourth day out he passed away, pneumonia de- vcloping. He probably over exerted himself ill lugging one of those heavy packs the government issues, and to be able to carry the big load a fel- low has to be a husky and ill fine form. All we could do for him after ward was to procure a fine large floral wreath i'll New York city, to lay on his coffin as he was removed to the old home at Forest Grove, Arkansas. All of us from Yavapai deeply deplore the death of Pete" as he was better known, for he was one of the best fellows I ever met"
 O'Donnell also writes that he will not return to Prescott for the pres ent, owing to so many mines sus- pending, and will go to Sherman, California, to visit with a brother, as there is no use in returning to Pres colt if everything is shut down. Later however, he expects to come back.
