DISAPPOINTMENT POSTER.
Some Good May Come of Later
 Fair.

Superintendent Clark yesterday de- voted himself to the composition of a poster which is to be scattered far and wide, announcing the postponement of the fair, and the benefits that will re- suit from the postponement. For cer- tain reasons it would have been pre- ferable to hold the fair when first ad- vertised but it is by no means one sided proposition and there are a dozen or so benefits that will ensue directly from the postponement. There will be a bigger exhibit in every department, except perhaps the vegetable and gar den; more ores, more cows, more sheep, more horses. etc. It will be holiday week when more people will want to take a vacation. There will be more time to advertise excursions and cheap rates. etc., all of which MT. Clark will enlarge upon. The thing now is to for get the misfortunes and make all pos sible out of the goodfortunes. A letter was received yesterday announcing that the Graham county educational exhibit was now on the way having been sent by express.
 MT. Clark also received yesterday from Thomas Devine of Bisbee, who will have charge of the drilling contest a few rules of the game. Among them it is stated that eight pound hammers will be used in the double hand con- test and four pound hammers in the single hand contest, while seven eighths steel will be used in both.

A LACK OF GINGER
Last Nights Council Session a For.
 nal Affair.

Many moons have passed since the city council has previously held so uninteresting a session as last night. There was no spice nor ginger in it- nothing but routine business and not a great deal of that.
 Aside from reading the minutes, au- diting bills and drawing warrants the following action was taken: The street committee was instructed to look over Grand avenue and see that it was properly graveled after railway construction, or see what was needed. The city engineer was instructed to finish his plat of Bennett lane and file it with the city recorder and es- tablish a grade for the street. Mrs. E. M. Wharton was given a warrant for $500 in consideration of a tract of land sold for the strengthening of Ben nett lane. The committee on build ings and grounds was ordered to see what the fire department required in the way of new blankets, mattresses, etc. The report of the corral foreman was read and filed. The report of the committee on street car lenders was read and tabled. A resolution was

FATAL STUDY OF NATURE
Life Work of George F. Breninger
 Who Was Buried Yesterday

The funeral of George F. Breninger was held yesterday afternon at the parlors of Merryman & Moore, and was attended by many friends of the dead man and his family.
 MT Breninger, who was a native of Philadelphia, and was forty years old was a martyr to his own intense in- terest in his work. His love of hunt ing and of the study of birds and anil mals, of collecting skins, belts and the eggs of birds might almost be describ- ed as a passion. He began collecting as a boy of fifteen and kept it up as long as he was able to be around. At the time of his death besides a nice collection of birds and animals he had a collection of eggs ranking fourth in size among all the collections of the United States. Some of the eggs were of common birds, worth but a few pennies each, but many of them are very rare and worth as high as twen- ty-five and thirty dollars each. One little bird and animal collection of his is now on exhibition at the Curio building and has been for a year or two.
Arizona republican., 1905-12-05

He was a member of one of the nat ional .ornithological societies and was in close touch with the leading natur- alists of the day. He spent six months in Mexico during one expedition and four months in Central America on another. Besides his work as a gener- al collector and with the Field Colum- bian museum, he was for a time in charge of the agricultural experiment. station at Table Rock, Colo, and his first large collection of birds and anil mals was bought by the Colorado state university.
 He suffered his first stroke of par alysis while engaged in work in the Hopkins laboratory at Pacific Grove some years ago and the second stroke last summer, the third coming only a few days before his death. He knew the arsenic used in his work was det- rimental and very dangerous to his health, but could not wean himself from following his chosen vocation even with the knowledge of his danger.

 New York, Nov. 27, 1905. Messrs. Goldwater and Bros,
 Phoenix, Arizona.
 Gentlemen-In the issue of Printers Ink for November 29th there appears an announcement of your firm which was found excellent enough to be re- produced from your local paper in the department of Ready Made Adver- tisements" appearing weekly in the Little Schoolmaster.

 The Printers Ink Pub. Co.
 Chas. J. Zingg. The advertisement shown attention by the publication was one offering sofa pillow tops to the trade and urg ing a visit to the Goldwater store while the sofa pillow top assortment was complete. Such compliment as Printers Ink pays the Phoenix firm does not only speak we'll of the insti- tuition that has for many years been converts of the faith of legitimate ad- vertising but also the manager of the advertising department at Goldwater's Wm. E. Jacquith, who prepared the copy for the advertisement.

A STATEN ENT.

To the Public:
 A few weeks ago I submitted to the council of this city, an appli cation for a franchise to construct and operate an electric light and gas plant I have since heard it stated in public comment upon the matter, that my ap plication was made and is now pending in the interests of the Phoenix Light and Fuel company, the company which now furnishes electric light and gas to this city, and that if my franchise were granted it would be assigned to that company, and the present monopoly of those utilities would be continued.
 Such statements and reports, I beg to assure the public, are wholly with out foundation. There has been no communication upon that or any kind

They have not attended to the matter yet for there is nothing for them to do until after some steps are taken toward a city election and 1t costs money to buy bonds. A letter from Todd & Co. was received, say ing their attorney reported that it was not necessary to hold an election for mayor, to which the council instructed a reply that it was necessary by char ter provision and when the ordinance is accepted that action will be taken.

 My application for the franchise in question is made in entire good faith, and with the intention and expectation, if the franchise be granted, of con- structing a new and independent plant to furnish to the citizens of this city, electric lights and gas at much lower prices than now prevail, and with inn proved and more efficient service.

JAPAN DEEMS BIG
BATTLEsHIP BEST
Adopts That Naval Lesson From Ex-
perience During the Present
War With Russia.


War With Russia.
The Japanese naval programme,
which was lately cabled to The Sun,
has been attracting the stention OF
European naval officers. The mann
moth vessels which Japan conteu-
plates building will necessitate such
dock accommodations as Japan. before
the war, was not known to possess.
and IL she, a. is reported. proposes
to turn out these vessels herself, Japan
must have secretly repaired or is pre-
pairing the biggest docks IN the world
The experience OF the present war
has convinced Japanese naval officers
that the American and British theory
that huge battleships will be the main
factors in sea fighting in the future ID
the correct one, and they have re-
solved not to be behind the worlds best
vessels. Ten inch guns win be the
smallest caiiber. and twelve Of these
monsters will be carried by each ves-
sci, besides four 12-inch guns. They
are satisfied that 6-inch guns are use
less for attack. as 4-inch arnor Is for
defense. The enormous concussion OF
such a battery VIII necessitate special
construction. which, II is recognized
may limit the speed OF the vessel. 1t
is estimated that nothing less than a
tonnage Of 1880 win be used for these
vessels.
The batt1eships Kashima and Katori.
of 16,40O tons, are new being built for
Japan's order at Elswick and Barrow.
They will carry four 12-inch guns and
four 10-inchers, and each will throw
5400 pounds of metal The vessels OF
the proposed new type, however, will
throw 9400 pounds.
The British battleship Lord Nelson.
now building. will throw 1900 pounds Of
metal. The vessels Of this class were
originally designed to be of tonnage
Of $4,000. but lack of dock accommo-
dations prevented this idea from being
carried out-New York Sun.
