SHELDON MINE GOES TO DEPTH
(From Tuesdays Daily)

Continuing exploration work at the Sheldon silver mine in the Walker district IS revealing the presence of larger ore bodies below the barren stratum of leached rock peculiar to that district. Work has now reach ed the 620 level, where the continu- ation of the vein struck last year at the Sheldon has been encountered. Samples from this level brought into Prescott last week by J. R. Acker- man, manager of the Sheldon, were chalcopyrite ore bearing values in gold and silver.
 The Sheldon is not rushing through work in order to be producing by the time the Humboldt smelter re- sumes operation.
 We have enough ore blocked out to furnish production for a year, 7" Mir. Alderman said; but we are at present following the vein past the 62O level" -
 Exploration at the Sheldon has proved the contention of those in charge; namely, that the real values were to be found below the leached- out stratum which is encountered just below surface showings ill that district
 Miners developing properties in the Walker district" said Mir. Acker- man, have sooner or later seen their mineral vanish as soon as they start ed to go down. A stratum has been leached out below rhe Surface, so that gold and silver values have dis appeared, carried to depth by the ac- ton oi the water Failure. to explore to depth has left these lower ores undiscovered. What we have done and are doing at the Sheldon, Is to go through this 1eached-out section, to encounter even higher values at greater depth, as we expected we would"
 Mr. Alderman was unable to say when the Sheldon will be put on a production basis. Development work will be carried on and ore blocked out, until word is given to com mcnce. taking it out for smelting.

JEROME MAIL JOB
 LET ID STAGE @.
Nrom Sundays Dailyl

The star-route contract to carry the mail between Prescott and Je- rome for the next four years begin ming July 1, has been awarded to the Jerome Union Stage line. AL though bids were opened April 1, the award was not announced until yes terday The amount of the bid IS not known, but is believed to have been less than the $11,G0O a year under which the previous contract was held by Jacob Greene.
 The contract calls for two round- trips daily, including Sunday, between Prescott and Jerome, carrying all first, second, third and fourth-class mail and parcel post. A previous call for bids resulted in unsatisfactory offers, and the government readver- tised Greene was not among the later bidders. Mail has been carried between Prescott and Jerome by stage only since the Santa Fe stop ped handling it last year.

MANY SCENIC DRIVES OYER FINE HIGHWAYS FOR PRESCOTT TOURISTS, SAY SUPERVISORS

rScligman should not take the Wal nut creek route at this time, how ever, the supervisor said, since the concrete apron across Walnut creek, IS out, and cannot be repaired for another week or ten days. The road itself is in fine shape.
 Senator Drive
 Another route which should not be neglected for Sunday travel is the Senator drive to Crown King. Su- pervisor l.. s. Colwell stated that the county crews have recently com .pleted construction of several turn .outs in this road between Senator and Ncnezia, and that the entire length of this remarkably scenic drive from Senator down through Palace Station and Hooper to Tower mountain and Crown King is a smooth, easy drive. The roller coaster" over Battle Flat this side of Hooper affords some interesting scenic views in sharp contrast to those found earlier on the drive thru Senator and Venezia.
 Other road work being done by the county crews include repair of the Camp Wood road, upon which crews have been placed, and the tear ing out of two small crossing bridges about four miles out from Prescott on the Copper Basin road. The road will be rerouted a little at these places to do away with the use of bridges.

Contractor Lashnet Has That Grade All Torn Up and Only Mail Cars Will Be Allowed To Use it Just Now.
(From Tuesdays Daily)

This week witnesses the temporary passing of the Lynx creek hill from the list of passable places. Contractor L. C. Lashmet is now engaged in tearing the hell out of the hill.
 Mail motor cars will not be de toured on account of the government regulations covering them, but all other traffic is requested to use the cutoff between Dewey and the Je- rome road. Arrangements have been made to keep this route in good shape during the time the crews are working on the narrow portions of the Humboldt-Lynx creek section Of the county highway program.
 Roy White, engineer in charge of the job who was in town over the weekend, says that it will not be long before the contractor will have the section i'll shape for passing by the use of turn-outs, but just at this time it will save a good deal of trouble to motor traffic is the pub lie will patronize the more round- about way.
 Leave Prescott as though headed straight for Jerome, but short dis tance out on the Lonesome valley flat, gaze to the right and see the cutoff ready and waiting to convey said motoring reader of this paper right to Dewey.--

Roads around the county are at present in better shape than they have been at any time for five years past, in the opinion of the county supervisors, who yesterday met to go oyer the mid-month bills and to check up on the roads situation.

 Sunday Excursions
 Many excellent Sunday automobile trips can now be made. Chairman Midgley, who came over from Oak creek, said that for a Sunday ride the trip from Prescott to Sedona is beautiful and can be made all the way over a fine road. Motorists should not neglect, either, he said, the trip from there on to Stoneman lake Clear travelling may be had all the way, and the trip can be made in three hours or little over. In going over this route, automobilists must cut off at Cottonwood, because of repair work now going on at Camp Verde

JAZZ DANCES GIVE
WAY TO OLD STEPS
Open-Air Pavilion Of Eastern Star,

Sees Change.

Put and take" Baltimore hop" and
other 'Jazzy' dance steps are losing
thsir popularity in Washington In Ia
vor of the plain one-step and rox
trot, II the dancing at the fair being
held at 10th and Lamont streets by
the various chapters of the Order of
the Eastern Star can be taken as a
criterion.
Only a few of the scores of couples
on the big open-air dancing pavilion
at the fair grounds last night were
putting and taking or Baltimore
hopping" to the strains of a real jazz
orchestra. The vast majority OF the
dancers did the straight dancing
which was popular not so many years
ago.
The dance floor has proved to be the
most popular attraction at the fa1r
since it opened Monday night. 1t Is
built in twenty-four sections and Is
one of the largest of its kind In
Washington. according to John j. +.
Mullane, managing director of the
bazaar.
Other attractions at the fair, which
is being held for the benefit of the
Eastern Star Home and the various
Eastern Star chapters participating,
include novelty games and Venetian
swings. There also are several re-
freshment booths.
The fair grounds open every even
ing at o'clock. Attendance thus far
has exceeded the expectations of the
