Crockett and the Mules.

When Davy Crockett sat in the national legislature as a repre- sentative of the state of Texas he had many clashes with men of more education, but less wit than himself. It is told of him that one day while standing in front ot his hotel on Pennsylvania ave nue, a drove of mules trotted bv under the custody of an overseer from one of the stock farms in Virginia. A congressman from Boston, who was standing near by. attracted Crockett's atten. tion to the unusual sight, saying:
 Hello, there, Crockett; here's a lot of your constituents on pa rade. Where are they going?"
 The celebrated hunter looked at the animals with a quizzical glance, and then turning to the other said quietly, but withgreat emphasis: They are going to Massachusetts to teach school. J -Harper's Weekly.

TERRITORIAL FAIR
 NOTES

Remember the New Dates-Dec. 25th to 3Oth and Don't forget to Boost the Fair!
 The rains interfered with the completion of the Fair buildings and grounds but with the delay caused by the postponement every thing will be ready.
 The railroad companies have shown their deep interest in the success of the Fair by making the low rate of 11s cent per mile each way and this will insure a big at- tendance.
 Phoenix, Ariz., z.,-Dec. 25th to 3Oth, 19O5.-On account of the heavy rains causing floods in the Salt and Gila rivers and interfer- ing with the transportation lines it was necessary to postpone the Fair and holiday week was de- cided upon as the best time as this would give everyone an op- portunity to take an outing and visit the Capital City.

The miners drilling contests for the championships of Arizona promise to be well filled. The usual rules will apply, 8 pound hammers in the double contest and f pound in the single with seven-e,ght (M) steel in both. Mir. Thomas Devine of Bisbee will be in charge of the contests and he is thoroughly familiar with the manner in which they should be conducted.
 Various exhibits are being re- ceived for the Fair, many having been shipped before the date the postponement was announced. The United Verde mine exhibit, in charge of Mir. H. K Brown, has been received and will no doubt be an attractive display. It will remain as a part of the permanent mineralexhibit. Sev- eral of the counties have also sent thetr Educational exhibits.

BIuewater Colony

The Santa Fe New Mexican speaks of the visit of President C. K. flakes to that city. but credits Mir. flakes as being from Tempe; which is a mistake. Mir. flakes has resided at Mesa for many years.
 Mr. flakes and party Louis E. Lamb, Lottie M. Lamb and John Alfred, came to Santa Fe to make homestead entries at the United States land office on public land in the valley of the Bluewater, twelve miles west of Grants sta. tion on the Santa Be Pacific rail road. They filed three home steads and one desert land entry at the local land office.
 Mir. flakes, when asked, stated frankly that he and his people were Mormons; that they came to the Bluewater section to be- come permanent residents, that they would engage in farming amp stockraising, and that with in a year he hoped to settle 25 families or about 15O people in the valley.
 They have found some good reservoir sites, which will be uti. lized, and have also demOnstra- ted that there is plenty of under. flow water in the valley which could be cheaply and profitably pumped by naptha and gasoline engines, and used for the purpose of irrigation.
 There is plenty of wood for fir es and timber for building pur- poses and construction. The soil is very fertile, and he is well pleased with the prospects, Mesa Free Press.

Spalding as the most eloquent panegyrist of noble
womanhood and woman's sublime mission but this
illustrious essayist will now have to look to his
laurels since Dr. Creagh has entered the field Our
readers would do well to carefully preserve this
article and present it to the first champion of
"womans rights" who may be so fatuous as to pro
claim the time-worn faacy that the Church is an
obstruction in the path of woman's advancement.
Dr. Creaghs sermon, by the way, impresses us as
the nearest approach to Bishop Spalding's peer

And so Togo, the great naval hero of the day is

this statement be- indeed true, how Mr. Robert
Blatchford, Socialist and agnostic," who would
sententiously refute the claims of Dr. Barry's CON
tention that "the future of civilized nations de-
ponds on their attitude toward the secular or
agnostic view of life and action" by the "two
words, Russia and JAPAN" viii have to coniure
with his cunning and wit prove that his oracular
pronunciemento is aught more than meaningless
jargen. For be it remembered, it is recorded that
to Togo, largely-very largely-is due Japan's
evolution into "world-power" However, lest we
render ourself equally absurd with the "socialistc
and agnostic" Blatchford, we are prone to await
an absolute confirmation that Togo is Catholic,
before positively affirming that Japans progress"
is not purely the fruit of agnostic principles and
forces.
