FAIR FOR NEW YORK
PLAN TO CELEBRATE DISCOVERY
 OF HUDSON RIVER IN 1900.
Company Secures a site-MonumeHn to Be Erected to Characters
 Of Colonial Days.

New York Special
 Plans for a celebration of the three hundreth anniversary of the discovery of the Hudson River, to be held during the summer of 1909, will be discussed at meeting of prominent citizens and committees of old New fork societies at the residence of Robert B. Roose- welt Wednesday evening.
 It has been proposed that a tercen- tenary exhibition to run during the summer of 1909 be held at Verplanck point, facing the Hudson River in Westchester County. Robert B. Roose- welt, uncle of the President, and other descendants of old Dutch families are enthusiastic and express confident hopes that the celebration in 1909 will be an exposition to rival those of Chi cago, Paris and St. Louis.
 Tt would be a great thing for the city of New York;" said MT. Roosevelt, land millions of visitors would come to the metropolis. The movement to hold the anniversary event in the shape of an exhibition has been work ing it's own way quietly for the last two years. until at present 1t appears to nave won, and New York will have within forty miles of the heart of tho city great exposition"
 MT. Roosevelt said Mexico has ex- pressed a kindly feeling for the pro- posed Hudson River exhibition. Sev- eral South American countries would welcome chance to exhibit near New York, Mir. Roosevelt said.
 Already a $40,000,00O private compa- ny has secured options on 600 acres at Verplanck point. If the proposed exhibition becomes a reality, Mr. Roosevelt explained, it will be built and managed by a private company, with the indorsement of the tercenten- ary committees of the old New York so- cieties. Said Mir. Roosevelt:
 Tt mas been determined to celebrate in 1909 with much splendor. Among other things considered is to make the bridge over the Spuyten Duyvil a me- morial bridge to William the Silent.
 we are considering the erection of a huge monument to William the Si- lent and another to Hendrix Hudson. If the proposed exhibition is held at Verplanck point we are bent on mak- ing the grounds into a Hudson River memorial park. The fair buildings will be of concrete and the architec- ture as picturesque and beautiful as 1t is possible to afford. When 1909 is past the buildings will become a part of memorial park. All these points will be discussed on Wednesday. Nothing has been definitely settled, but the outlook is encouraging"
 MT. Roosevelt would not say who were the men interested in the $4O,- OO0, 900 company to lay out the pro- posed exhibition grounds.

NORMAL APPROPRIATION
 CAUSE OF REJOICING

The news of the passage of the normal appropriation bill, reached the normal late Monday evening and there was great happiness and joy as a re- suit. In the evening the young men of the boys dormitory iitingly cele brated the event by firing several vol leys. The young ladies were no less appreciative of the passage of the bill and they gave vent to their enthusi- asm in series of yells.
 Yesterday morning at opening exer- clses the entire school celebrated in a body-students and faculty together. The various members of the faculty made appropriate talks and were loudly applauded by the student body, finally three cheers were given for the Twenty third and three more for President Matthews. It was then unanimously carried that resolutions of thanks and appreciation be for

Steam Ys. Electricity

The result of experience in the util- ization ofelectricity as motive power on steam railroads seems to vary in different localities. IL is reported that in Bavaria the steam railroad line be
 tween Munich aud Linddu Is to be equipped with electricity, and reports have been made of contemplated electric line between Hamburg and Berlin, trains upon the latter to run at rate of speed equalling more than a mile a minute. Ia this country however, We are told that the New , York. New Haven X Hartford Rail- road company has not only concluded to discontinue the use of it's Nantasket system as an cleo Uric road, hut is also proposing to abandon the electric ser. vice on its road between Providence and Bristol, and in eacl case to sub stitute steam on account of the greater economy in maintaining a steam service. When one takes in to account that the management of the New York, New Haven & Hartford road eight years ago was enthusiast cally in favor of electric service, il would appear that experience has not evolved results that were hoped for at that time. It is true that the New York Central is preparing for an cleo. tric service from Westchester county to it's FOrtysecond street station iu New York city, aud which the New York. Nav II wen x Hartford com. pany must join; but tnis appears to be due, not to the fact that an electric service is more economical one, but to the circums tance that the tunnel route which the New York Central is developing cannot be successfully operated by locomotives which burn coal l.-BostOn Herald.

GOLD IN WILLIAMS
The Town Is Built Over Big
 Placer Field

For some time past prospecting for gold in the town of Williams has been quietly going on near the business DOT ton, and the work was known to but few persons.
 Several months ago, iu digging a well, c. F. AycOck discovered gold in small particles among the gravel. He submitted samples of his dad to Pro bate JLige Douglass, who is also an asSayer, and h. pronounced the ind placer gold. An investigation of the well w.ls mads and gold was found throughout Us depth.
 Judge Douglas interested A, T. Cornish, and together these gentle men have been prospecting the valley in which Williams is located. Gold Is found from the grass roots down to the depth of l06 feet, not in big chunks of small mug gets, but in the il Ter form, and many places the gravel will average sixty cents the square yard, and there is every indi- cduOn that d large proportion of Che field will yield this average, and il can all be cheapDy worked.
 An option has been taken on a nun. Der of lots, aud the work of prospect ing will be prosecuted by MeSsrs. Cornish and Douglass.
 A boring machine has been ordered put down at various places to test thC quantity and depth of the deposit.
 The gold bearing field is an exten. s!ve one, extending from Williams for miles dDwn tn valley, but as tO its value, that is yet to be demOnst trated Flagstaff Sun.

THE GENTLEMAN FROM CHA
As Chairman of the Committee of the Whole, lie Was the Whole Thing

Mir. Timmons, by suspension of the rules, introduced bill further re- stricting the power of the supervisors in the matter of compromising suits. Against considerable opposition this bill was put into the committee of the whole along with several other meas ures, but was not reached in the course of the day. In the midst oi the discussion over it, Mir. Krueger presented a new rule that in all de bates no members should speak longer ger than three minutes and should speak but once on question.
 The rule was objected t1 on the ground that the required notice of one day had not been given. MT. Krueger accordingly gave notice that he would offer the rule this morning. In the tumble of bills for considera. tion by the whole committee was Mir. Anderson's for putting sheritfS on sal aries. But nothing came of it or any thing else. Mir, Taught was made chairman of the committee. If the spirit of the late Thomas B. Reed happened to he present in the house it must have gazed with admiration upon the performances ot Mir. Taught. Most of the business of the house since noon had been done under sus- pensions of the rules.
 Mir. Taught soon after taking the chair informed members of the com mittee that he understood that the committee was governed by no rules except those which the presiding of ticer should construct from time to time as eXigencies requiring them should arise. Once when a member forgot himself and referred to rule when a decision which had gone against him had bsen rendered the chairman said: 'I have told you that there are no rules here except such as make. The gentleman from Yavapai has the floor" Half the members of the committee were on their feet and gesticulating at the same time. The chair sat imperturbabiy smoking his pipe and handing out decisions right and left but always in the interest of the gentleman from Yavapai who now aud then sought to prompt the chair man by quoting rules which the other mem bers swore had no existence ex. cept in the imagination Of the gentle. man from Yavapai.
 It was difficult to see how the cOm. mittee was ever going to rise. And il may be said that it did not of it's own effort. It was brought up with a sort of informal jerk. rk.-Republican.

wOMAN's MYSTERIOUS WAY

One time my ma she scolded pa, And pa he scolded back, And Jim.mun-nee ! never saw My pas face look so black '! He clinched his fists and stormet
 around And stamped with both feet on the
 ground And said he wished that ma could be A man little while, And then she turned and looked at me And smiled saddish smile. So pa he went and grabbed his hat, And left and slammed the door, And for long time after that, I guess week or more, We didn't see him, hide ner hair, But ma said she didn't care, And sung around the house all day And wore the best she had, And said as long as I would stay She'd keep on bein' glad. At last pa he come home one night And held his arms out-so- And ma she cried with all her might And pa he pended low And hugged her close and kissed her,
 too, And ma kep' sobbiu' that she knew He'd come, and said that she'd been
 wrong,
 But pi said "No, 'twas l, " Aud ma kep' cryin' right along As hard as she could cry. And after that, for weeks and weeks, When pa would pet her, ma Would let the tears roll down her
 cheeks
 And snuggle up to pa. She said her gladneSS made her cry, Whenever would ask her why But can't see why folks don't let The tears come when they're sad, Instead of cryin' when they get Their wishes aud are glad.
