Angeles men became interested in the
future of this camp and are now or

this district for several years.
George W. Cooper, one of the Los
Angeles mining men, who came to this
camp several months ago, investigat-

and after satisfying himself as to the
immense gold and silver values yet
untouched, decided, with some of
his associates who joined him later,
to make this camp the seat of their
future mining operations.
Mr.. Cooper and associates have al
ready taken a bond and lease on the
Thomas creek gold placer property,
formerly owned and operated by
Charles Curtis and w. G. Grindle. This
property comprises an area of about
800 acres of land of which practically
300 acres are virgin ground, which it
is estimated, will yield better than,
80 cents in gold, yard. The overbur-
den ranges from approximately six to

VAST SUMS FOR PUBLIC
ROADS COME FROM J.. S.

The federal highway act in gen.
eral way resembles the federal aid act
of 1916, but contains several new fea-
lures. Administration of the act by
the secretary of agriculture and under
him the bureau of public roads re-
mains unchanged.
Apportionment of the fund to the
states is almost the same as in the
previous act, the fund being divided
into three parts, one part apportioned
according to population, one accord
ing to area, and the third according
to mileage of rural and star mail
routes. A new feature is the stipu-
lation that no state shall receive less
than one-half of l percent of the
total fund, which amounts to $685.
625. This stipulation will increase the
amount received by four of the
smaller states, Delaware, New Hamp-
shir, Rhode Island and Vermont.
Considerable change, however, is
made by the act in the manner in
which state may use its allotment.
Each state must select connected
road system not exceeding percent
of its road mileage for Improvement
with federal aid. This system will be
divided into two classes, one of which
will be know as interstate highways
and the other as intercounty high
ways. The interstate highways must
not exceed three-sevenths of the sys-
TEN selected on them not more than
60 percent of the state IS allotment
can be spent without the joint ap-
nroval of the secretary of agriculture
and the state highway department.
The intercounty highways, which con-
sist of the remainder of the system
selected, will receive the remainder
nf the state Is allotment.

FIRES BULLET
HIS HEAD
Illness and Family Difficult
ties Given as Reasons for Pa
perhanger's Suicidal Effort
Child Finds Him in Bed at
Noon Saturday, with Blood
Oozing from Temple Wound

! With bullet from a 22-caliber rifle
imbedded deep in his brain, Alonzo f..
Davis, aged about As years, a painter
and paperhanger at Kooskia, will sur
vive, according to word received from
Kooskia, late Thursday. Davis shot
himself in the right temple about
o clock Saturday morning, and lay UNI
conscious in bed until noon, Saturday,
before he was found.
MOTIVE FOR SHOOTING
Davis has long been sufferer from
tuberculosis, and this illness together
with family difficulties, according TO
advices from Kooskia, affected him
in such manner that he decided to kill
himself.
Davis was sleeping in bedroom on
the lower floor of the family home in
Kooskia, Friday night. His family had
retired to the upstairs rooms. About
O'Clock, Saturday morning, accord
ing to story told later by Davis, he
arose, procured the rifle, and return
ed to the bed. Placing the muzzle of
the rifle across the pillow, and point
ing at his right temple, Davis pulled
the trigger. The bullet penetrated his
brain, and he lapsed into uncon-
seriousness.
FOUND BY HIS CHILD
Alarmed when Davis had not appear
by noon, his wife sent one of the
children into the bedroom. The
child, terror stricken by the CHASTITY
sight of its father lying unconscious on
the bed, with blood oozing from the
gunshot wound, ran to its mother, and
told her of the tragedy.
Reports that Davis had been shot by
some person other than himself were
circulated, but on investigation con-
Quoted Sunday by Sheriff J. G.. Eimers
and Deputy Chester Arnold, it was dis
closed that the shooting was a clear
case of attempted suicide.
