Many Tourists In
the City On the Fourth

Independence day was celebrated
with the usual firev orks and noise
in Idaho Springs. However, in
clement weather, bringing cold and
downpour of rain, spoiled dozens
of picnics and fishing parties.
The town was crowded with vis-
itors and practically every hotel
turned people away, and many
sought lodging in private homes.
The restaurants and cafes sold
out their stock of food, and even
some of the groceries we're without
certain necessities when they began
business Tuesday morning.
Every canon and camp ground
was filed to capacity with camp
ers, the majority of whom did not
grumble at the weather, but laugh.
ed and had a good time in spite of
it. Cars poured in in a steady
stream thru the town Saturday
and Sunday, carrying thousands of
people out for holiday outing,
thus demonstrating the popularity
of this section of the state as a
recreation center.

Might Have Been Worse

Albert Wall had a narrow escape
from serious injury Friday after
noon when E. M. Moscript's Re-
public truck, which he was driving,
plunged from Wall street down to
a level with Virginia street, land
ing between the houses occupied
by the Decker and Maize families.
Mr. Wall leaped from the truck
and escaped injury. The front
axle of the machine was bent, one
glass in the windshield shattered
and the radiator cap broken, but
otherwise the truck was not dam,
aged.
The corner of the Maize house
was damaged and some of the
shingles torn loose.
The cause of the accident has
not been determined, as it is not
known whether or not the brakes
refused to hold or if it was caused
by. the machine taking quick
leap when the clutch took hold.

OAThAN AMALCAhATED
 TO START AFTER JAN. l

Fred Hensing, of Flagstaff, has been in Kingman the past week on matters appertaining to the Oatman Amalgamated Mining company. This corporation is to start operations on the property after the first of the year, the work mapped being the de- velopment of the 600 foot level. On this level drifts have been carried into the territory where a junction of the Gold Road and Tom Reed lodes occur, and at which point the ore body is ex- pected to be encountered. On the 300 level ore of good milling grade was encountered, but this body has not been picked up on the 600, the lateral work not having been carried into the right territory. The consulting engi- neer of the property believes that the mine will prove a big producer with the completion of development work now under consideration, and so firm is he in this view that he has invested his own money in the enterprise. The shares of the company are largely held in Flagstaff.

 BETWEEN UNION

The Union Pacific railroad has call
 ed a meeting of all people interested
 in the building of highway from the
 station of Lund, Oh the Salt Lake

 ing will be held in Salt Lake City next

 tions of the west, and then will pass
 over the line into Mohave county, over
 proposed scenic highway that is
 soon to be built by this county,
 through the Indian Reservation onto
 Kaibab Plateau, thence to the can-
 yon. This road will be one of the most popular in the country, if built, and there is every likelihood of it be- ing brought into existence soon. The Union Pacific company, which recent ly acquired the control of the Salt Lake road, is shaping up matters for big campaign of publicity for the wonderful beauty spots of northern Mohave county and southern Utah, and expect to do large amount of highway building to reach out into this picturesque and almost unknown country.
 Recently there was organized at Hurricane, Utah, road association, composed of residents of Mohave County, Arizona, and Washington County, Utah, who expect to start a big roadbuilding campaign to bring their sections of country closer to market and intercommunication of the various districts. The first work is to be done in the connection of the new road to Short Creek with the road into Hurricane. Highway Engi- neer R. H. Hayward Wednesday last shipped to Lund supplies and mater ials for the inauguration of work on the first section of the new highway. This work will be started at Short | Creek and will follow the high ground a distance of IF miles, then into the | head of Pipe Springs valley, where it will connect with the highway re- cently completed through the Indian reservation. This road will be ex- travelled, being one of the most scenic in the west. William who had charge of the work 'n the Union Pass section, will be in 'harge of this roadwork, leaving here sometime next week to assume charge.
