TTOW shall the reckless or criminal
RI automobile driver be controlled,
is the question. The problem is
engrossing the attention of legislators,
police officials and automobile organi-
cations. 1t is one that concerns the
entire country.
Solutions have been offered. Most of
them have been rejected; some have
been tried; none have ben satisfac-
tory.
In the meantime automobile acci-
dents are daily becoming more COM
mon The increase in the use of
motor vehicles has been overwhelming.
In towns and villages where two years
ago a passing machine was a sight
that brought residents to their doors
automobiles are now in everyday use.
The list of serious accidents and OF
fatalities caused by automobiles has
kept pace with this growth.
But it has not peen the law respect
ing citizen with his runabout or his
touring car that has been at fault
Sometimes the ineXperience of new
owners of this class has led to disas-
trous results. More often-far more
often-however, accidents have been
due directly to the recklessness or
devilishness of irresponsible drivers.
Frequently these have been chauf-
feurs entertaining friends in the ma
chimes of their employers without the
latter's knowledge. With few gar
ages keeping check of the incomings
and outgoings of automobiles it is not
n difficult feat chat of a paid driver
taking his friends out for an all night
ride in a $4,000 car.
1t is particularly in the regulation Of
this class of driver, who is often reck-
less. thoughtless, daring and some
times drunken, that the chief problem
lies. The law respecting automobilist
Is as much concerned in his regulation
as is the motorphobe-often more so,
because he realizes that the practices
of the irresponsible chauffeur bring
discredit, Inconvenience and some
times disgrace upon himself.
The problem has been under con-
sideration many times by the board of
governors of the Automobile Club of
America. 1T has been discussed at
cpen meetings of that organization.
and delegates nave been sent to assist
iii framing laws to regulate the chauf-
feur. Los Angeles is up in arms about
it. Commissioner McAdoo and his po-
lice Hids in New York city have given
tlepartments of other cities have
wrestled with the problem and are
still wrestling.
Fear Ahead, Death Behind
And IN the meantime reckless and
inconsiderate automobile drivers con-
tinue to spread CONSERVATION ard fear
before them, and, too frequently,
fatalities behind them along highways
of travel.
1t is in this extremity that the idea
has been seized with avidity in some
quarters to organize special automo-
bile police. Patrolmen mounted on
motor bicycles have been tried in New
York city and have given efficient SER
vice.
Automobiles cannot easily pass by
and distance them as they can q

Interpreted in another way, are taken
to mean that the king is merely very
human young man. who takes
youths delight in noting the confusion
of bigwigs and dignitaries.
Alfcnso's eccentricities showed them
selves in childhood, when most healthy
minded youngsters of his years
would feel inclined to seek the same
relief from tutors, prime ministers anu
other dignified guardians. Most or ms
outbursts of eccentricity have thelr
common object They are, in one form
or another, rebellion against the for

against the dignity which in SPAIN OF

king, The recent refusal of Edward
of England to permit him to contract
an alliance within Great Britain's
royal family because of "taint' in his
blood has revived all the stories told
of the youngster, now just 81, and e&ch
yarn tends TO confirm the narrator IN
his own particular views.
First Noted
1t was during his first tour in the
Spanish provinces, three years ago,
that the people of his country first had
the opportunity to observe the capers
which hitherto had been reserved Tor
the eyes of the palace courtlets.
1t was on this journey that the king
complained of being bored and asked
why he could not go to bed. Pacheco'

planned that etiquette demanded that
the people leave first.
"Oh they must. eh?' replied his
majesty. "Ill soon send them away.
A moment later i'm a hush, Alfonso
doubled his fists. placed them to his
mouth in imitation of buSle and
sounded taps. Everybody stood aghast
and glanced toward the king, who
again sounded taps, stretched his arms
and yawned. The people took the hint
and departed.
In Santander the king received the
city's keys on a street stand. AS they
were handed to him the crowds
cheered.
Long live the king! Long live As
turias! Long live Spain! Long live
Santander!"
In the stiffness which followed, the
king leaned toward the duke Of Vera
qua, who was on another stand, and
cried:
you didn't get anything this time,
did you? No long life for you"
Shocked the Bishop
While in Cabadonga the king visited
the shrine and was induced to inspect
the sacred relics. The bishop of Caba-
donga showed the king st. Peters toe
nail and st. Paul's hair. The king
stopped him with:
Say, bishop, do you believe that
nonsense?"
The scandailzed bishop affirmed that
he did
"Weil, don't" replied Alfonso.

He Said It All.

At u Tovar Hotel, which overlooks the Grand Canyon, there is maintained a large volume in which tourists are invited to inscribe their sentiments af- ter having looked on this greatest of natural wonders and possibly journey ed to the depths, where one may ol, en view far below instead of above, as is usually the case, beautiful rainbows gliding away into the blackness of abyss. It is said that nearly every tourist was keen to put down some- thing that would perhaps be original and more expensive than had been said before. This went on until finally there came visitor whose name was not learned by this writer and who said it all in a single sentence. He wrote: "The birthplace of chaos, the tomb of the rainbow; he who thinks to convey an impression of the unspeak- able, with pen, has confidence that outruns his ability" No one since that time has had the temerity to write anything.-Republican.

Deepest Gold in the World.

An important report was made by the manager of the New Chum Rail- way mine, Bendigo, recently, that good gold was showing in the stone in the crOsscut east from the center country winze at 4224 feet, says the Australian. The stone is feet thick, and when broken disclosed splendid gold. The quartz is richly mineral ized and we'll laminated, and fine gold is associated with the seams of slate and minerals. There are also a few large specks of gold in the quartz. In the top the formation is 4 feet wide, and in the bottom it has width of 2 feet, 6 inches. It is the east leg of the formation, revealed in sinking the winze at depth of 4165 feet. The bot tom plat is at 3756 feet, but the shaft has depth of 1896 feet. In order to work the reef to advantage, the com pany will have to sink 400 feet, and then crosscut at 4265 feet. The dis covery is of considerable importance, as further evidencing the existence of gold at great depth. In opening up the formation at higher point gold was seen, but this development is the nest important which has yet attend ed operations in the mine at over 4,O0O feet. The fact that this is the great est depth at which gold has been ob- tained in the world lends to the de- velopment more than local interest.

Good Spirits.

Good spirits don't all come from Kentucky. Their main source is the liver-and all the fine spirits ever made in the Blue Grass state could not remedy bad liver or the hundred and one ill effects it produces. You can't have good spirits and bad liver at the same time. Your liver must be in a fine condition if you would feel buoy ant, happy and hopeful, bright of eye, light of step, vigorous and successful in your pursuits. You can put your liver in fine condition by using Greens August Flower-the greatest of all medicines for the liver and stomach and certain cure for dyspepsia or in- digestion. It has been a favorite household remedy for over thirty-tive years. August Flower will make your liver healthy and active and thus in- sure you liberal supply of ''good spir- it's" Trial size, 25c.; regular bottles, 75c. At all druggists. =

Mexico Whipped Japan.

Last Friday out at Red Lake, a sta tion on the Grand Canyon railroad, nine miles north of here, trouble oc- cured between two gangs of laborers, Mexicans and Japanese. There were fOrty-tive Mexicans and about eighty Japs on the ground, but from the first the latter were outclassed.
 Grabbing up rocks and other mis- siles as they ran, the Mexicans caused the air to look black for a time with flying headsplitters, and as they were all pretty good marksmen, the Japs, who it is said, throw like a woman, were soon put to flight, leaving their wounded on the field of their ignom- inous defeat. In all, eight Japs were picked up as soon as quiet was restored and brought to the hospital here to have their wounds dressed. Williams News.

The cold weather of the past few days has been playing havoc among the Mexicans employed at the Copper Queen shelter. It keeps them busy most of their time to keep warm, and they are highly indignant when they are asked to work.
