THIS MAN OWNED 600 WIGS.
Mania Of the Fifth Duke Of Portland
for Collecting Odd Pieces
of Headgear.

Continuing the list of curious paral-
lels which the new claimant to the duke
dom of Portland alleges to have existed
between the fifth duke of Portland and
Mr.. bruce, the London Express gives
some facts about the mania for wigs
which is said to have been common to
both men. A representative has had
an interview with the perruquier, who,
for about IL years, was in constant at
tendance on the fifth duke.
"The first time ever saw the duke, "
this man stated. was about the year
1850. was sent around to Cavendish
house by Mr.. Truefitt to supply the duke
with new wig. These he was perpetu-
ally ordering. There was small wicket
window on each side Of the front door
When rang the bell noticed that an
old butler was peering at me through the
glass.
"At last, after tremendous lot Of un-
boiling, the door was opened, and was
admitted to the house and conducted
upstairs to room about 20 feet square.
The walls were honey-combed with pig
eonholes, and each one of these con-
tanned wig. There must have been at
least 600 Of them"

KILLED LION WITH HIS TEETH.
Wyoming Mans Remarkable En-
counter with = Catamo CUNT and
His Final Victory.

If Arson Sercoff, of TORY Creek cam
yon. Wyo., is to be believed, he was
lately the hero of a yarn which even
man like Selous cannot discount, says
the New Nork Post. He was prospect
ing, and ran across the den of a noun
tain lion. He went in to see If there
were any whelps, and while in the
cave the mother returned and attacked
him from behind. The catamount mis-
calculated its first leap and overshot
the mark, allowing Sercoff to turn
about and face it. Then came a most
thrilling encounter. Sercoff managed
TO get hold of the lions jaw so that 1t
could not bite. and with his other hand
he so twisted the forefeet of his adj
versary that it could not use its claws
on him. The two fell to the ground,
and in the process of rolling over and
over Sercoff managed to get his body
between the lions hind legs so that they
could not do much damage. Then he
began to tear the animals throat with
his teeth, and finally reacoed the Jug
ular vein. In the end he killed II, es-
Gaping with nothing worse than few
painful scratches. The skin measured
eight feet from tip to tip.

WOMEN IN RESTAURANTS.
rhey Seldom Order Meat for Lunch-
con and Avoid Pie -
q Rule.

"Have you ever noticed how wom-
an orders?" asked restaurant man
of a Washington Post writer. There
are three whose orders have not yet
been taken; now watch" And very
soon the waiter appeared. 1t was
luncheon hour, and all being women
who are employed 1t was natural to
suppose they would order something
warm and stimulating. Ones order
was chocolate eclairs and milk, anoth-
er chicken salad and chocolate, and the
patron wondered why the sandwiches
were sighted,
why" said the proprietor, ff 1t
were not for the men we would never
sell piece of meat-at this time OF
the day particularly. Somehow wom-
en- rebel at the thought of beefsteak,
preferring something dainty. Wheth-
er it proves good for digestion is an
other matter. A man will come in and
order cooked luncheon and finish
with piece of pie. Awoman may take
a sandwich and some sweet thing,
either cream or fancy cake, but never
pie. It's odd to watch them, and can
almost fill their order without taking
It."

FORTIFIED HELIGoLAND.
Important Naval Base Of Germany
and It's Rapid Destruction
by the Sen.

The island of Heligoland, which was
coded by Great Britain to Germany
in 1890, has become an important base
for the navy of that country, and has
been fortified with guns of the most
modern type; but although it does not
anticipate attack from any foreign
power, the ocean is doing it's best to
swallow it up piecemeal, says Cham
bers' Journal. According to tradition,
the island was once five times it's pres
ent size. The work of destruction still
goes on, and in the opinion Of many
no human power can stop it, for the
disintegration IL due to geological
causes. The rock is sandstone, and the
waste is most perceptible on the west
ern side of the island. Heligoland IL
favorite sea resort, and ranks among
the most fashionable watering-places
in Germany. 1t Is said that the en-
peror recently appointed a committee
Of experts to report upon the incursion
of the sea upon the coasts of the is
land, and that these gentlemen took q
very gloomy view of the situation.

A MISSING MAN
INFORMATION
Wanted of ]. E. Mud
ford of Phenix.
Travelling Salesman For Liquor
House MysteriOusly Disappears
From Ash Fork in April.

The Journal-Miner is in receip* OF
a letter asking for information con-
corning j. E. Mudford, a travelling
liquor salesman, who formerly made
his headquarters at Phenix. Accord
ing to the statement made in the let
ter Mr.. Mudford was at Ash Fork on
April %, 1908. At that time it was
stated that he had been drinking and
was somewhat under the influence of
liquor. 1t is stated that he left there
for Seligman on that day although
he has talked of going east, and he
was also reported to have been seen
in Prescott the same day While these
statements apparently mix him up
somewhat he could have been seen in
Prescott in the morning and could
have reached Seligman by o'clock
in the afternoon of the same day.
From the above date nothing has
been heard of him, and an invalid
sister, in Denver, Mrs. j. ]. Whitton,
is very anxious to learn of his where
abouts if alive, or if dead to learn the
of his death. Besides
being an invalid Mrs. Whitton is
resources to incur any ex-
pense in her search for her lost broth
er, and if the press of the territory
will make notice of this they will be
doing a worthy and charitable act and
nay be the means of relieving a wom-
IN from great suspense and anxiety.
They are requested to publish such
notice from this as they feel they may
be justified in doing.

wooden cars the latter have been torn

The Mayor CartOOned.

II. La Montague, superintendent of
the Sultan mine, is among his other
accomplishments, quite an artist in
the cartoon line. Some wekes ago
Mayor Dennis Burke and few other
friends of Mr.. La Montague spent
several days at the Sultan mine.
Mayor Burke's many duties as pro-
prietor of the largest hotel in north
ern Arizona and mayor of the city of
Prescott, cause him to lose a great
deal of sleep and he thought it would
be good time TO make up for lost
time in sleeping while he was at the
mine, and it was quite task to get
him out of bed long enough to feed
him during his stay there 1t was
useless to ''call'' him to get up and
he paid no attention to throwing hot
water on him, so they resorted to the
use of ella monsters, centipedes, rat
tie snakes, horned toads, Lizards,
ETC., as a means of getting him out of
bed. The other day Mr.. La Mon
tagne, while in a reminiscent mood,
drew cartoon representing the Hon
orable Mayor fast asleep in bed while
the room fairly swarmed with the
above mentioned animals and insects.
1t also showed a thermometer in which
the mercury lazily lounged around
the 40 mark, while the tallow candle
was bent double from the warmth %
of the atmosphere. A tag ON the
mayors overcoat showed the suggest
i've mark of sd H." and kindly
note at the bottom of the letter in
formed him that he would need his
overcoat if he should come down now.

Death of Pioneer.

The pioneers are passing away.
Another received his final summons
yesterday. 1t came suddenly and al
most without warming. The victim
was Geo. r. Parker, one of the old
time residents of Prescott. He was 81
years old, and was apparently hale
and hearty, and did not have the ap-
pearance of being over sixty or sixty
five years old. His death occurred
about o'clock Sunday evening. He
had Just partaken of hearty dinner,
in apparently his usual health, and
sat down on his front porch Soon
afterwards he complained to his
wife that he did no feel we'll, and
went into the house and sat down. A
few minutes later Mrs. Parker found
him dead.
Mr. Parker came to Arizona in the
late sixties and had resided in this
section ever since. He formerly own
ed some valuable ranch property in
Peoples valley where he resided for
some time. His son F. G.. Parker,
who died few years ago in Los An
geIes was Prescott's principal archi-
teet and builder for a great many
years, and very many of the buildings
of Prescott of ante-fire times we're
built by him.
Deceased was highly respected and
houored citizen of Prescott. Three
children survive him, Mrs. Coles A
Bashford, of Los Angeles, Mrs. Knapp
of Tennessee, Mrs. Reppy, of Iowa,
and Charles Parker, of Pres
colt. The funeral will take place
tomorrow. relatives from California
being expected to arrive on tonight's

ing But Condition More Favor

Rome, July 1.-THE pope's condi-
ton today has developed new features
which the doctors regard as the most
alarming since his illness began.
The patient suffered frequent per-
iods of delirium during which he
muttered incoherently and insisted
that shadows were fitting about the
room. The pope showed a complete
realization of the gravity of his condi-
tion, and asked for the Franciscan
bene diction, which was given by Car
dinal Wives Y Tuto.
AT his special request he saw Ram
polla for few minutes, to whom he
gave what is thought might be his
last words
Late in the afternoon by the great
est mental and physical effort he
raised himself to a sitting position,
and insisted on getting out of bed for
a minute returning Immediately.
At seven o'clock he showed such a
revival that four cardinals were per-
mitted to enter. There has been no
recurrence of delirium this afternoon.
Rome, July lisp. ma bulletin
just issued states that the strength of
the pope is diminishing slowly but
continuously.

There seems to be general feeling
mine owners and operators in
this district that what we need is a
more united effort to promote devel-
opments and place properties in the
hands of people financially qualified
to operate them. 1t has been rumor-

MINING INTELLIGENCE.

At Park, City, Utah, it is stated
that a movement has been started to
form a cooperative mining company,
the stockholders and operators all be-
ing miners and members of the West
ern Federation of Miners. A company
already organized and known as the
Aristocrat Mining Co., has offered a
large block of stock for sale to the
members of the union, offering as a
premium 10000 shares after $4,000
shares have been subscribed. Should
the union accept the proposition they
would have a majority of the stock
and consequently control the mine.
This is somewhat of an innovation
with labor unions, as in this case
they would become operators as we'll
as workmen. 1t will afford them
good opportunity of showing how
a mine and practical
mining should be done. If the prop
osition of the Aristocrat Mining Co.
is accepted, the career of the company
under the new management would be
watched with interest Mining and
Scientific Press.
