EDWARD P. JENNINGS
WILL SOLVE PROBLEM
Prominent Salt Laker Will Work
Two Months on Arizona
Ores.

Edward P. Jennings, the prominent Salt
Lake mining engineer, will leave Tues
day for TWO months professional visit
TO northern Michigan. During this period
IN the cool North, Mr. jennings Will hayo
charge OF an experimental plant work.
Ing on ores from 4 mine In Arizona, and
the owners wisely have located the test
mill IN q locality where there Will be an
abundance OF workable weather and rail-
road facilities This Is q departure from
tho ordinary course OF procedure as VIII
readily be acknowledged by all who have
had charge Of such n plant hundred
miles or SO from railroad.
There were several things taken into
consideration by the owners OF this Ari-
zona property. The summer weather OF
Arizona needs no explanation. and the far
North will bo q most welcome contrast.
The company prefers to pay tho freight
on the several carloads OF their copper
ore TO Michigan. for in SO doing thero
will be a reasonable saving In not being
compelled TO freight the machinery as far
as the mine. Tho sito selected by the
company for their experimental plant has
ample railroad facilities and so situated
that few days tlmo will suffice to place
upon the scene any additions needed.
Mr. Jennings Will spend several days
OF this week In Colorado.

ANCIENT ENTERTAINMENT.
Deseription Of One Given by xene-
phon's Army Of Greeks.

Description Of One Given by xene-
phon'. Army of Greeks.
In his 'Anabasls" Xenophon describes
an entertainment given by bis army OF
Greeks on the shores OF the Black sea
during the retreat from Persia after
the battle Of Cunaxa, about twenty
three centuries ago. Two Thracians
first rose up" says the soldier histo-
rlan. "and danced with their arms TO
the sound OF nute. They capered
very high and with great agility, then
made use OF their swords. AT last one
OF them struck the other In such q
manner that every one thought he had
killed him. but the stroke was given
with art. The other. having despoiled
him OF his arms, went out singing q
song Of triumph Then other Thracians
carried OF the man as II be had been
dead, though Indeed he was not hurt.
After this some .EnIans and Magne-
slams rose up and danced in their arms
what they called the carpaean dance,
the manner Of which Is as follows: One
OF them, having laid down his arms,
sows and drives a yoke Of oxen, look
ing often behind him. as II he were
afraid. Then a robber approaches,
whom the other perceiving. he catches
up his arms and. advancing, fights with
him in defense OF his oxen. All this
these men performed In time to the
flute AT last the robber binds the
plowman and carries him of with the
oxen. Sometimes the pl0wman over
comes the robber and, fastening him
to the oxen, ties his hands behind him
and so drives him away.
After this Mysus entered with q
buckler In each hand and danced some
times as II he had been engaged with
two adyersaries, then used his bucklers
as IL engaged with only one. Some
times be whirled round, then threw
himself head foremost and fell on bis
feet without parting with bis bucklers.
This made a fine sight. Last OF all be
danced the Persian dance, striking his
bucklers against each other and In
dancing fell on his knees, then sprung
up again, and In all this be kept time
10 the flute. He was succeeded by
some MantIneans and other Arcadians,
who. being dressed In the handsomest
armor they could provide, rose up and
advanced In time to flute that played
a martial air. They sung the paean
and danced In the same manner that u
practlced in solemn professions.
ION this one Of the Arcadians LED
forth a woman dancer, dressed hand
somely and carrying a light buckler'
She danced the Pyrrhie dance with
great ability. on which there was great
applause. That caused the Paphlago
!ans who were present to ask whether
the woman also charged with the
troops. Then the Greeks said that u
was the women who drove King AT
taxerxes out Of the camp. This wa'
the end Of that nights entertainment

things are needed will have its weight
