Home Coming Feature of the fair.

The old First National Bank building
will be made headquarters for all 'home
corners" during the fair, and every old
resident returning to Mineral Point that
week is requested to register there as
soon as arriving.
Indications are that the hotels will be
wholly Inadequate to accommodate the
old-time Mineral Pointers who will be
with us during fair week, therefore it
will be necessary for citizens to open
their homes to help take care of our
visitors.
All who can furnish board and room
or either for home-comers during the
fair are requested to hand in their
names. number Of rooms and rates for
hoard and rooms to Miss Martha Cum
mines. who will have charge of the
headquarters.
Names and rates should be handed in
at once so that suitable preparations
can be made.

As regards the supply OF coal, the
foundation Of the modern Industrial
system and a great source Of revenue
to many OF the large railroads Of the
United States. there need be no cause
for concern. The number OF square
miles Of coal land In this country far
exceeds that Of any country Of the
world; indeed the United States, with
Its s65.000 square miles OF coal land,
is over six times as rich In coal re-
sources as the combined coal territory
of Europe, which is but $1,000 square
miles in all.
The railroads OF the country also de,
rive. very much revenue from the large
production Of iron ore and steel. Much
OF this Is consumed by the railroads
themselves In the construction and re.
pairing of new and old lines and the
building of cars, locomotives. bridges,
machinery. etc.
While it is believed that the world
consumption Of iron in the next ten
years will far exceed that Of the con.

corded history to the present time, the
Indications are that the United States
will be able TO hold her own in this
output, which indicates continued
prosperity for the railroads and for
the country generally.

THE GOVERNOR ACTS

Madrid, May 1S.-A dispatch from Granada states that the Alhambra is in imminent danger of collapse.
 The governor of Granada has called meeting of prominent citizens and experts for Monday next in order to take immediate measures to avert this national catastrophe.
 The portions most affected include the hall of the ambassadors, the state reception room of the Moorish mon- arcbs, which is the most richly orna- mented room in the Alhambra; the tower of the Salas del Tribunal and the court of the harem
 Historic Building.
 When Grenada had become the cap ital of all that was left of the Moorish dominions in Europe, King Mohammel Ibn-el-Ahmar, or Alhamar, as bis name is generally written, began the erection of a splendid palace citadel upon the heights north of the city.
 This was in the year 124S. It was not until 1854 that the magnificent structure was completed and embel- lished with it's rich Oriental adorn- ment by Yusef Abdul Hagig.
 Erected upon terrace about 2,500 by 675 feet, the Alhambra was sur rounded by a wall over a mile in cir cult, having thirteen square towers From the color of brick used it was called by the Moors Kalat el Hamra "the Red Castle"
 Designed as fotress as we'll as a royal palace, the Alhambra was cap able of accommodating in it's numer- ous rooms, corridors and courts an army of 10000 men, although the wan \ing Moorish power was never able tf

 Long since have the beautiful halls of the Alhambra been desolate Many of them were in ruins century ago. The towers are clumblns, the gar dens are tangled jungles of weeds and the fountains are falling 10 pieces.
 In one of the towers two old gar deners live. The rooms at one time were used as prison. and two of the there.

The labor organizations all over the

that he show proof for his statement that
Meyer, Haywood and Pettibone melted
to riot and bloodshed. The men are
officials of the western federation Of
miners and are charged with completely
in the killing of Governor Steunenberg,
of Idaho. On this charge they were
arrested in Colorado late at night and
taken by special train to Idaho, without
acquisitions, and placed in jail-vir-
tually kidnapped. President Roosevelt,
in his usual strenuous style, has scath-
ingly denounced them, before they
have even been placed on trial, but
has been called to account by organized
labor to such an extent that he deems
another letter necessary to defend his
attitude toward the men, which has been

of which he so dearly loves to boast.
