FIND FOREST OF BURIED OAKS.
Trees in England Have Been Under
around 1000 Years.

A wonderful relic of the past has
been brought to light at YaXley, Pc.

is most probably a buried forest. At
q depth Of seven feet have been found
a number OF oak trees which have
lain buried for some 1000 years.
Most of the trees are almost perfect
in condition, and are being sold to
furniture manufacturers and others.
Altogether about eighty trees have
been raised, and hundreds more are
left in the ground untouched at a
depth OF five or six feet. In nearly
all the cases the roots are found at.

three Or four, pointing in different di-

Afloat on Small Ice Eloe.

While employed upon the ice at
Lake Watatic, Arthur Forsburg of
W%inchendon, Mass, found himself
adriit upon a small foe Of four or five
cakes. No boat was at hand, and the
boy found it necessary to drift about
with the wind until his strange craft
reached shore. He was in constant
fear that the foe would break up, but
managed to keep aaoat for ninety
minutes. Aside from a bad chill he
was no worse for the adventure.

Intelligence of Crows.

Most birds cannot carry anything
which their mouths are too small to
contain. The crow is an exception
at times. In Vermont. near Man
chester. five crews were seen to
come down into an apple orchard,
They came daily, and after a time
the owner discovered that they were
taking apples from a tree bearing the
mellowest fruit. Each crow damned
its closed bill into an apple, raised
its head and flew to a tall pine tree,
where the fruit vas eaten. More re.
markable still is the fact that crows
will sometimes carry turkey and hen
Eggs from a nest in the same manner.

Famous Indian Chief Dies.

Wallapi Charley, a chief of the Wallapi Indians around Ringman, passed to the happy hunting grounds Thursday afternoon of last week, after a lingering inllness of dropsy.
 When. in the early eos, the white man first took possession of the section which constitutes Mo- jave county, Charley was a young Indian. just starting in to gain a position of favor with the other members of his tribe. The oppor- tunity offered in the extermination of the white man, who was inter- posing upon the Indian domain.
 With his half brother, Sherum, who ranked as a war chief of the Wallapi, he waged warfare for a few years, until Uncle Sans sol diers came and put an end to the incipient race troubles. Charley was made captive and properly shackled, sent to Alcatraz Island near San Francisco. When he was released from confinement and re- turned to his native land, he was living witness that it was useless for the Indians to fight the whites, for he had seen more white men in a single day than there were Indian bucks, squaws, papooses, dogs, and ponies in the whole tribe, multi piled many times over. Thence forth, Wallapai Charley was a we'll behaved Indian
 The funeral took place at Canyon station about 16 miles northeast of Kingman.

Sci. tice Cured After Twenty Years of
 Torture.

For more than twenty years Mir. J. B. Massey, of 3322 Clinton street, Min neapolis, Minn., was tortured by sci atica. The pain and suffering which he endured during this time is beyond comprehension. Nothing gave him any permanent relief until he used Chamberlain's Pain Balm. One appli- cation of that liniment relieved the pain and made sleep and rest possi- ble, and less than one bottle has effect en a permanent cure. MT. Massey re- lates his experience for the benefit of others wno may be similarly afflicted. If troubled with sciatica or rheumatism why not try 25-cent bottle of Pain Balm and see for yourself how quickly it relieves the pain. or byalls Fale dealers.

they can whoop it up with the best of 'em and come out easy winners.
 In response to a call by the chairman of the executive commit tee the various committees met at the court house, and reported as follows on the Fourth of July celebrations
 The racing committee requested that S700.00 be set aside for purses, which amount was allowed. This with the entrance fees will make the biggest list of purses that have ever been hung up in northern Ari zona. The base ball committee asked for $500. %, which is to cover the expenses of the visiting base ball team, and the purse of $l00.00 for each game.
 The committee on Indian affairs asked to be allowed S10000 with which to feed their Indians, and cash prizes for the chicken pull ing and racing events. They state that there will be close to one hun dred Indians in the parade and that the dancers will come prepared to give all of their native dances in full costume.
 The committee on decorations thought that the sum of S30.00 would cover their expense and that amount was set aside for the pur- pose.
 The advertising committee asked for Sl00.00, which amount was al- lowed and they were instructed to proceed without delay to let the rest of the world know what was doing here.
 The committee on horse racing asked for S200.00, which was to cover the purses for wet and dry test.
 The committee on tournament thought that $20. .00 would cover the expenses Of their race.
 The finance committee reported that there had been subscribed about S2,500, $500 of which has already been collected and is on deposit in the Arizona Central Bank.
 All of the above money is over and above the grandstand receipts and revenue from privileges, etc, which in itself will amount to considerable sum. A committee on. program will go to work in the next few days and assign the time allotted to the various events and outline the entire proceedings of the three days.
 The list of subscriptions for the Fourth of July celebration is ap- preaching the $2,000.00 mark and it is to be hoped that those who have not as yet been called on by the committee, will hand their sub- scription to either Mr. Verkamp, Sliker or Devilbiss, or leave it at either of the banks. While the town has been pretty we'll can vassed, it will be noticed that some of the merchants have so far not "come through" At least $2,000.00 should be subscribed so that there will be ample funds, with the gate receipts, to make this the banner celebration of northern Arizona.
 Following is the list of thosewho have subscribed with the amounts:
