HUNT|NGPARTY GETS 5 MOUNTAIN LIONS
 IN THREE DAYS

Cleve Miller, Government hunter and trapper on the Apache National Forest, accompanied by A. B. Daniels, superintendent of the Navajo Indian Reservation, and M. E. Musgrave of Phoenix, are entitled to the blue rib bon as lion hunters, when on a three days hunt in the Apache National Forest, approximately sixty miles north of Clifton, they killed five mountain lions, three full grown ami mals, and two cubs almost equal in size to the others.
 The hunt was arranged by MT. Musgrave cooperating with Cleve Miller. Governor Campbell was to have been a member of the party but was detained on account of official business. Messrs Musgrave and Daniels arrived in Clifton by auto on Wednesday of last week and pro- ceeded over the Clifton-Sprnigerville Highway to the ranch of Cleve Mil Ter on Pine Flat. Here the party of three, accompanied by cowboy, secured horses and pack animals. and coming across to the Rose Peak road camp struck north through the snow into the heart of the forest The hunt was started on Friday and at noon Tuesday the hunters were back at the ranch of MT. Miller with nVe lions as trophies. Loading the hVe carcases into the back end of the automobile MT. Musgrave and MT. Daniels drove to Clifton and left overland for Phoenix Wednesday morning where the lions were deliv- cred at the office of the State Game Warden.
 The hunt was part of the days work for Cleve Miller and his pack of dogs, but five lions in three days we believe breaks the record even for this veteran hunter and trapper.
 An unusual feature of the hunt was that the first day out the dogs picked up the trail of three lions and treed all three of them, dividing the work between them which is considered most remarkable feat.
 MT. Miller is fast earning a na- tional reputation as a hunter of pre- datory animals in the national for ests and his pack of hounds are be- coming celebrated all over the south west

DOUGLAS PASCOE MISSING IN MOUNTAINS

searching for his companion. He states. that as late as 6:3O Wednes- day evening he received an answer ing signal shot from Pascoe but after that hour could hear nothing. Bills stated that he continued the search Wednesday night. At day light ne made his way hack to the Mule Creek road and was brought to town by a rancher.
 A fresh posse left Clifton Friday afternoon and Sheriff Bradberry with posse of five men are still continu- ing the search
 Fear is entertained that PascOe met with an accident. He was in his shirt sleeves at the time he be- came separated from his companion and it is feared that he may have perished from the cold during the snow storm in that vicinity WedneS- day night and Thursday.

such sums in a period of depression. Mule Creek Road Finished
 Ill July 1921. the people of New Mexlco met with the people of Ari- zona at Silver City and proposed that II Arizona would construct a road to the western New Mexico line, New Mexico would guarantee a good road from Silver City to Arizona.
 The Arlzonans have this week conl- pieted their section of the road and the grading gang has moved out. New Mexico promises to have the New Mexico end of the line through Mule Creek and Cliff completed by Christmas. Then Fl Pasoans can drive over
 here by way of Deming and Silver
 City and do it easily in a day
 The Arizona road for Silver City leaves the Clifton-Duncan road nine miles south of Clifton, and it was heavy work every foot of the way. else 1t could not have cost S14O,OOO and more for IT miles But all road work over here is heavy work, yet these Clifton people think nothing of it.
 The Mule Creek road was just a little starter in their program of building roads. They wanted road for tourists to come in here from the Sprmgerville and the northern Ari- zona country-and a road for people to get out north from this region so they started the SpringervilIe road
 Some Real Road Work
 Talk about expensive road build in&' You don't know anything abo It 1t until you have gone over the com pleted portion of the Clifton-Spring- erville road
 To get out of Chase Crek canyon. a few miles north of Clifton it was necessary to build a road at three levels alongside the same mountain but they did it.
 They circle the upper end of the canyon and come back towards Cliff ton on the first level, then turn around north again at an available spot and run in the other direction. Each piece of road climbs higher and higher, the top section 100 feet above the one in the bottom of the canyon. To gain half mile in distance, the road is two and a half miles in length.
 Beautifui Scenery
 The road climbs out through some splendid scenery reminding one at first of the beautiful Arroyo Seco, ummer camping home of million aires near Los Angeles, then taking on the appearance of the Mountain Park country as it climbs to an alti- tude of 1000 feet at Granville Pass, II miles north of Clifton, then much like Cloudcroft as it climbs through the spruce and oak and sycamore above the quaking aspens into the pines at a height of 5000 feet at

Clifton Builds Good Roads;
 Flouts Talk of Hard Times

G. A. Martin, managing editor of The El Paso Herald accompanied by H. H. Friss, manager of the cir culation department, with three as sistants, chugged into Clifton on Tuesday of last week aboard one of Henry's best, and apparently as If by magic, within a few minutes a majority of the population of Clifton Knew the stars of the Herald staff were in town.
 With unerring instinct Martin head ed for the sources of news while Friss deployed his circulation skir- mishers. For the next two days they were in and out of Clifton and all over the district. As a result of their visit the Heralds circulation list in the district has been increased in a gratifying manner and the is- sue of the Herald of November 23rd carried a splendid account of local activity in the district from which we take the following:
 If you want an example in optim- ism, you can get it in Clifton.
 These Clifton people are the sort who tell the world they are on the map-and spend money when no money is coming in, just to prove that they know they are right and be- lieve in themselves.
 With the copper mines partially shut down and people all around talking about hard times, the Clifton people have never admitted that they were anything but very much alive and they just kept on doing things as if the mines were running full blast and there were no vacant stores within thousand miles of them.
 Adversity Met His Match

 The present will take the shape of new cyanide mill of seventy-five ton capacity, which has been under construction on the Stargo property near Morenci for the past six months, and which will make it's initial trial run on or about December 18th.
 MT. Benj. Getzoff. of Bernards- vile, New Jersey, President of the Stargo Mines Inc, arrived at Mo renci last week and will remain un- til after the initial run He will be Joined here about the 18th inst. by Morris Kullman, treasurer of the company and MT. Stern, vice-presi- dent.
 The cyanide mill was designed by the General Engineering Co.,, of Salt Lake City, Utah., of which J. NJ. Callow is President, and the actual construction has been in charge of MT. Bornsen, mechanical engineer.
 It had been expected to have the mill completed earlier but the usual delay in the arrival of machinery has retarded it's completion, however. MT. Bornsen announced this week that he would be ready for the initial run on or before the 18th inst.
 The Stargo Mines Inc, is a cor poration organized under the laws of Arizona with capitalization of S500,000.00 and is now controlled by Getzoff, Kullman, Stern, ct. al, of New York and New Jersey, although a large number of Arizonans are stockholders in the company.

GREENLEE COUNTY IS ORGANIZED FOR
 BOY SCOUTS

pr. l.. A. w. Burtch, chairman of the committee having in charge the drive for Greenlee county's quota of the funds necessary to include this county in Boy Scout Council, con- slstlng Of Greenlee, Graham and Glla, this week was able to send a telegram to O. A: Aldersor, at Globe, Scout Executive for this district. that the full amount of $5,O0O.0O had been subscribed
 The boy Scout activity, which has been revived in Greenlee county, was the direct result of a recent visit of c. J. Carlson, field director of the Boy Scouts for the western states. During his visit, after consulting with interested parties, it was de- cided that Greenlee should join with Graham and Gila in the formation of Council and to divide the ex- pense of Scout Executive among them
 The committee who assisted in raising Greenlee's quota for this purpose, was composed of pr. L. A. w. Burtch, chairman; P. Riley, w. R. Davis, J. o. Amber, c. E. Hull and w. N. Moore, representing Cliff ton and Morenci
 At a future date committee of seven will be named to represent Greenlee county in the Council of the three counties, and at that time Duncan and Metcalf will also have representation as the movement will include the entire county.
 With the organization of Green lee, Graham and Giia counties into one Council, all of the counties in Arizona are now organized and Ari- zona holds first place of all the states in being one hundred per cent organized.
 A Boy Scout troop is already in existence at Morenci, which will now probably be divided into two troops, and it is the expectation that there will be two troops in Clifton and one at Duncan.
 O. A. Anderson, scout executive, will devote part of his time each month in Greenlee county directing the work of the local scout masters and instructing the boy scouts
