 WHIRLWlND IS IMPROVING Harry FrieGman's roan pacer, "Whirl- wind" is improving his speed a little every day, when going toward the barn. He has taken few notches off the record lately but does not care 10 announce the actual time of the horse for fear he might be barred from the big tracks should ne ever try to en- ter, or at any rate hemight make other colts who are struggling for repu,a- tions, jealous of his speed
 A YOUNG PATRIOT-The Prescott Herald says: "A case of JeTersonia1 simplicity with a vengeance came to the surface today, when the kid" of J. II. Robinson, the stalwart democrat ic clerk of .he board of supervisors was seen peddling the Arizona Repuo- Iican at 5c per. He sold over p copies of the paper. MT Robinson is in san Francisco, hence the boy knows a good { 4s-t, +n,- ing. Later he will probably have to eXpend -his profits on witch hazel salve.
 GONE TO AFRlCA-A Phoenix lady has received a letter from the sister Of Gordon Tweed, giving the information that Frank Conkey, formerly connect ed with the Rio Verde enterprise here, left on August for Africa which he expects will be his home indefinitely or at least for many years. Mr. COnkey has associated himself with Leigh Hunt, a wealthy fnancier and mine owner who has acquired enOrGOus tracts Of land about 1000 miles up the rivec Nile. He proposes to colOnize the land, Ga- velOp it by irrigation and farming en- terprises and also by mining if such enterprises prove 1attering. MT.

Conkay gets comfortably located, when he will be joined by his family.

 ANOTHER BOY ARTisT-Mention was made by this paper a few days ago of Kenneth R. Chamberlain, thirteen year old Phoenix by, whose clever work with pen, ink and co,ors,. entities him to be known as a very talented boy cartoonist. 1t is now pleasure to chronicle the discovery of another boy artist who SHOWS remark able talent in picture making though not in comparison with Kenneth Chamberlain, for the two boys are en- ,irely different in the nature of ,he work they do. The lad in question .s Heighton, the fourteen year old son of MT. and Mrs. w. K. James. His specially is caricaturing the human head and he does ii with wonderful ease, in pleasing variety and with rare originality. The makinS Of grotesque pictures of people has always been a pleasing pastime with him and ne has done some very fine work. His i'm pulse is always toward the human fea- lures, when CorceiVing a funny picture, while Kenneth seems rather to absorb the settings Of his ideal pic ture, illustrating some idea he has in mind both by persons and things. The two boys are great friends and often compare their work and note their diff ferences.
