It would be hard to say which fun

all his jokes arc new and '.side-split-

take everything seriously. An ex-gov-
ernor of Wisconsin, famous as a story
teller, is reported by the Chicago Trib-
une as having related an anecdote Of
his own experience with man of the
latter class The governor was at =
clam-bake in New Jersey and after din

eaten so many of their low-neck CLAIMS
that I wasn't in the least sort of condi-
ton for spcech-malking. At that mo
ment a long-faced old man directly
across the table scowled at me and said
In stage whisper:
Siittle-neck CLAIMS, kttls necks-not
fow-neclks-"
Ipaid no attention to him and went
ON with my remarks. After dinner he
followed me- out OF the hall
"You arc from Wisconsin. amt your

"Yes," / answered.
"You don't have any CLAIMS out there.

'Well," said ], I'VE have some, but
It's a good way to water, and in driving
them across the country their feet get
sore and they don't thrive very well"
He gave me look that was worth q
dollar and half.
"Why, man alive!' said he. ''clams
amt got no teet."
He turned away and shortly after
ward approached one of my friends.
"Is that fellow governor of Wiscon-
sin?" DC inquired.
"Yes."

yarl.tlons N Butter rat.

At the Illinois experiment station
tests have been made to determine the
constancy OF the amount of butter fat
in milk. and it appears that though the
general law, that the amount of milk
decreased and the percentage OF butter
fat increased as the period of lactation
progressed held true, yet there were
surprising variations of almost daily
occurrence. The amount of butter fat
might be six per cent more in the
morning and by night drop of three or
four per cent. From these investiga-
tions it is apparent that Z single test
for only day or two can give no re-
liably correct idea of q cows milk and
butter producing capacity.

\ Deadly Blast

John Maddox, miner we'll known in New Mexico. was accidentally killed in a shaft of the Allan Storey turquoise mines, eighteen miles south of Santa Fe, Tuesday morn ing. The following details of the accident were published in the New Mexican: He was engaged in the bottom of the shaft, seventy-fve feet deep. and had fired the last blast of the day and started up the shaft in bucket when the rope broke and let him drop sixty feet. Scarcely had his body struck the bottom of the shaft when the blast of giant powder, he had but few minutes before set a match to, exploded. Death was almost instaneous. One of the men on the surface went down to his rescue as soon as the blast ex- ploded and Maddox gasped, "this Is the end of me- and died. His body was completely covered by loose rock thrown down by the explosion, only his head being visible. Maddox was young man widely known to the mining fraternity and generally esteemed"

Enjoying Ya..psl.. Climate.

of campers in the Bradshaw noun
 tains. who are enjoying the cool and
 salubrious mountain air of Yayapai
 county, thus raptuously writes of it
 to the Phenix Herald:
 The Phenician young people, as
 we'll as the old, since leaving their
 homes in the past month, have here
 found such delightful place to
 camp in the woods, that they are be-
 ginning to tenn themselves wood
 nymphs, thinking of the pleasant
 lives they must lead. The camp is located between two high and steep
 hills while ali around are numerous smaller hills. Majestic pines tower high in the air, oak and walnut trees furnish cool and restful shade, under which all sit and while the hours away, twining the wild honeysuckle and other flowers into fantastic bou- quets and wreaths with which we strew our resting place and crown each other
 In our jaunts over the hills we be- come tired and often hungry and thirsty, but their beauty lures us on. SO that when we return to camp we seem lost to the struggle and strife for worldly things, or the cares and vexations of life, and rest peacefully. Besides our days away from camp, We spend very pleasant Sundays in camp. About ten o'clock everybody goes 10 one tent and We have verit- able Sunday School. We have elect ed our officers and the session is car ried on m an orderly manner All we lack is some designated place for holding the school, but it has been suggested that we assemble under some large tree. This seems very proper thing to do for "the groves were Gods first temples.
 We had all been looking forward to trip to the top of Del Pasco, the highest mountainl of the Brad shsws. So few days ago we sad dled our horses and took an early start for the top.
 The trail winding around the afforded wild and rugged scenery. If any horses foot should slip down he and his rider would go for hundreds of feet, but this did not hinder us, for We knew that our horses were sure footed.
 Near the top of the mountain was IS beautiful a picture a. nature af- lords. An old deserted house and barn. broken wood fence, the way ng grass and ferns dotted here and here with wild flowers, and grazing ,attle formed the foreground; while n the background stood tall pines md oaks. Through a gap directly n front of us could be seen other in the distance, with low sring clouds around them; while of lo the left ragged heavy rain storm with lightning flashes at short inter Tals. We all stood spell bound gag ng upon it, for We felt our insignif- .ance beside the Ruler of all things
 When we reached the highest point on the mountain the sight was .ruly grand. In full view were the wo streams, Hassayampa and Agua Fria; and. had it not been cloudy, doubtless We could have seen the .xact spot where Phenix lies.
 After putting our initials and the late on a large rock over the brink If precipice..aboui 300 feet high, md rolling several large boulders 'ver the brink, we turned our horses md journeyed homeward. feeling much pleased that we could say hat We had been on a mountain 800 feet high.
