NOXON'S VISION FORETELLS OF
 GREAT MINES

A. P. Noxon, well known in Pres colt arrived from Bouse in time to see the last thrilling day of the Frontier Day celebration. lie was glad to get his lungs full of Pres colt air and let out a few whoops for the good work Of the boys i'll the arena. He reported great pros poets for a big future for the coun- try around Bouse reaching out 10 Ouartzsite.
 Among the busy camps the Mich igan-Arizona company is diamond drilling it gold, silver, copper group. T. A. Miller is superintendent in charge of work. and reports very encouraging result sfrom work so far done.
 The famous old Planet mine under the direct management of Claude Fergusso representing the Consoli- date Arizona Smelling Company at Humboldt, is working a small force of men, cleaning up old workings, and sampling to learn all possible of the values in various characters of the ores The old Planet is well thought of by mining engineers of note who have examined it.
 Mr. Hager. Sectretary of a close corporation of Dayton, Ohio. is plan ming big placer operation near 0uartzsite. A steam shovel with capacity of 1000 tons daily is on its way in a self contained tractor from the railroad station at Bouse to Ouartzsite The tractor is Of cater
 
 just like an army tank. Two re- public trucks are busy taking out other supplies, and a big beg Of placer dirt will be handled. It is claimed that it will run 90 cents a cubic yard, and the process to be in stalled is the Stebbing Dry conceu- trators. All the black sand will be saved as well as course and fine gold.
 Mir. Noxon says that Oscar A. Pease, who was interested in the pro motion a number of years ago in which IT. J. Beemer of New York invested a lot of money. is backing the desert country. this time not with placer, but with big land scheme. He has located 10000 acres of land under placer laws, and will subdivide it into farm land tracts, and wells drilled are said to furnish water to within 100 feet Of the sur face, after drilling 15O feet It is proposed to pump this water onto the land. It will be remembered that Beemer in an effort to get back what he considered lost in his Ouartzsite venture took over the Storm Cloud mine i'll the Senator dis trict. but later died na sanatorium in New York, having lost the great CT part Of the big estate in i'll 'ad- vised investments. The Storm Cloud was not pursued to the operating point. and though it looked good, went the way of the rest of his ven lures.
 ]. J. Cavanaugh, well known in Prescott, has located sections in what is considered by some as a true oil shale. and is going 10 try and put into operation a developing oil company. which is not far from the placer diggings.
 Tommy Bouse has his Dutchman mine under bond and lease to Bis bee mining men. and they will con tiuue operations after the hot wealth CT is over. The values are similar to the famous Clara flake gold.

GOODROADBONDS TURNED OVER /.
 ID BUYERS

Award of the highway bonds of this county, totaling $1,500,00 to a Isyndicate of eastern bond buyers has been ordered by the board of su- .pervisors, following a series of con- ferences between three representatives of the bond houses and various of ficials and prominent citizens. An arrangement whereby the county IS to be saved many thousand dollars in interest has. been made.
 The money 10 pay for the cons tructiOn and repair of the county road system is to be withdrawn from an eastern bank only as needed At present it is regarded as impossible to spend more than %50OO to $l00.- eco a month with labor and material conditions as they are. Interest will accrue on the borrowed money only as fast as it is withdrawn and spent by the county thus saving it is claimed, as much as S1S00OO or two years interest on the issue.
 The rate is c percent but it has been shown that Yavapai county will save about $30000O over the cost of a similar issue at 5 l-2 percent, put out by Pima county about year ago.

PIONEERS MEET ID ORGANIZE
 A CLUB

The meeting of the old pioneers in
 Odd Fellows hall on July Fourth
 resulted in the establishment of a nucleus around which to build a Has sayampa club. Mrs. Ida Mosher of Prescott, and Mrs. Mary F. Platten of Williams, were selected to receive applications for membership. Cover nor Campbell met with them and agreed to do what he could to assist in making the club a success. He delivered an appropriate speech to the old pioneers gathered, and told the assemblage that the time to do good for any one is while they are yet alive and not to wait till they are dead.
 This would prove true of the pio- neers, and 1t is also remarked to be true that if these pioneers want any thing done for themselves that they had better get busy and keep that way till something definite is arrang- ed for their organization. Old pio- neers living in this section for 30 years or over are entitled to become members and all such who wish to join this club should send their ap- pllcatiOns to the ladies above men toned. Another meeting will be held July 4, 1921, unless one should be called sooner.

PRESCOTT PAIR MAKES A DEAL
 IN PHOENIX

E. K. Schalit, proprietor of the
 Prescott Hide and Metal company,
 has made the most important deal of
 his life. He has been in several large
 deals, some involving many car loads
 of machinery and supplies. He has
 gathered together many car loads of
 waste material and turned 1t into coin at a saving to himself and money making for others. But, this deal which he has made is more impor- tant than all his other contracts put
 together. This one is a strictly per sonal contract, and was made with a lady And, by the way, it was the most important contract ever entered into by the lady.
 The contract provides on the part of the lady, Miss Helma Jacobs, that she is to acquire a dutiful and obedi- ent husband. She agrees on her part to change her name to that of Mrs. Helma Schalit, when addressing her Chums, but when transacting business and writing to mere acquaintances she is to be known as Mrs. E. R. Schalit.
 Mr. Schalit receives in return for these covenants, a siilar contract from the lady, in that she is to be his dutifu and loving wife. It is a peculiar incident that the two parties went to Phoenix the other day on the statement that MT. Schalit was on his way to Date creek station, where he had to look after the shipping of sev- eral car loads of machinery and min ing supplies to Prescott, but instead he went straight to the superior clerks office in Phoenix with his blushing partner and there got the proper papers and had the clerk make the proper entries in his big books for such contracts as these, and then they came back to Prescott.
 Needless to add that that machin- cry still has to be shipped It will arrive in a day or two, but in the Mir Schalit is not looking after it in person as he has some one else who can be trusted to look after 1t for him. though he did not know that a few days ago. Many friends join in wishing the happy couple bon voyage in spite of the fact that they put deal of this soft over on the sly.
