ARIZONA ELKS
LEAVE TODAY
FOR DALLAS
BiSbee Lodge to Be Represent
ed by C. E. Rinehart and M.
]. Cunningham-WilI Join.
Los Angeles Special.

The eyes of Ell<dom are turned on
Dallas, Texas, where the annual con-
vention is to be held next week, and
where preparations have been going
or for the past year for their enter
tainment 1t is estimated that in the
neighborhood of 100000 visitors will
be in Dallas during the Elks' conven-
ton.
The Elks of Bisbee will be repre-
scented by two of their most promin-
ent members-C. +. Rinehart and NJ.
j. Cunningham. The former goes as
representative of the Bisbee body by
virtue of his position as past exalted
ruler Cunningham is the deputy for
the territory. Rinehart left yesterday
afternoon for Ell Paso, where he will
spend several hours with brother
who lives there, before starting over
the Texas & Pacific for Dallas. Gun
ningham will leave this morning.
The Bisbee delegates will not go on
the excursion train which leaves FL
Paso, but will be guests on the special
train which the Southern Pacific is to
run from Los Angeles. Those who
are in a position to know say that it
will be the Nfinest equipped train which
has ever been run in the west. The
Los Angeles bunch is out after the
next annual convention, in which they
will be ably assisted by the entire Ari-
IONA delegation.
The Elks from Portland, Seattle and
Tacoma have decided to go to Dallas
by way of Denver rather than by way
of FL Paso, as originally planned.
This on account of the Democratic
convention, which will be in session
at the right time for the delegation to
see and hear part of its proceedings.
The return will be made by way of
the Pass City, in which it is probable
that they will stop for several hours.

PHOENIX ELKS
DESIGN SOUVENIRS
To Advertise Copper Resources
of Territory at Dallas
Convention.

Secretary G. X. Reynolds of the
Bisbee Board of Trade is in receipt
of a letter from the secretary of the
Phoenix Board of Trade, Geo. w.
Cowgirl, in which he refers to a
souvenir sent him. the same having
been gotten up by the Elks Of
Phoenix.
The souvenir is unique in design
and adyertises in the best possible
manner. The whole is of copper,
representing a loving cup suspended
from the Elks' emblem, and engraved
with the inscription Arizona leads
the world in copper" The idea is a
good one. and will do much to place
Arizona before the world in its prop
er light as the greatest producer Of
the red metal.

BULLS IN CONTROL
ADVANCE PRICES
United, States Steel Preferred
Was Most Conspicuous
With Rise of 3 IA.

NEW YORK, July S.-The move
ment for an advance in the prices of
stocks made material progress today.
Although the result was uninterrupted
it was not free from some opposing
obstacles. Selling was particularly
notable in stocks which are but specu-
lative mediums. The conspicuous
strength of individual stocks sustain
ed the general list. The most impor-
tant instance was the unusually VIOLA
tile rise of IA in United States Steel
preferred.
Some restraint was thrown off dur
ing the latter part of the day when
the general upward movement gained
considerable force.

If there are such things as crime waves the city of Boston has certainly been inundated with one of late. Not only Boston but practically all of Mas sachusetts has had the same experience during the past few weeks. Boston ." says The New York Globe. "is much disturbed by a suburban and rural crime wave and the indications that professional and experienced criminals of desperate character are losing their fear of the police. Recently two Me cumstances which indicate tha: they may have been anbushed. And this Is but one of several black tragedies. The Boston Daily Advertiser declares that 1t has been proved beyond question that in the larger cities of the State there are settlements where criminals are banded together with the purpose of making forays on the rural sections. returning quickly to the cities after tn cir lawless-and sometimes murder ous-excursIons. From the mill towns in particular it Is declared that recent ly arrived immigrants wander into the country and rural villages to commit deeds of violence. Any one who has looked into the faces of some of the shuHling thugs that hang about the smaller places of the State will easily believe this to be true %
 From another source We learn that no less than nine assaul's. robberies and hold-ups in the vicinity of Boston were recorded on Friday of 'asI weeb. and we never take up a Boston paper that does not contain accounts of one or more atrocious crimes or attempted crimes in the city or nea- by.

Manly Sufferers

Greenville Advocate.
 Mir. A. c. Forbes, the President of the Comnercial Club of Montgomery, and head of one of the big mercantile firms, started out to see 8 ball game one afternoon last week. and in get ting on the ear he fell and broke both his arms. He went to a physician and had his arms set. and went home. Next morning at the usual hour he went to his place of business and worked all day. attending to his regular duties, dictating to his stenographers and di. recting the business as if nothing had happened.
 Ills act shows as much nerve as did a little Irishman who was seriously wounded in the arm at the battle of Franklin. The doctors decided to am- putate the member, and administered the chloroform, and cut off the arm AS soon as he recovered from the ef- fleets of the anaesthetic, he asked for the arm, and 1t was picked out from a pile of other limbs which had been Amputated, and given to him. He took the arm off into the woods. dug a hole in the ground and in a lot of leaves laid the arm in the little grave and covered 1t up again with leaves and then filled the grave with dirt.
 A few minutes after the interment the writer met him and he told him what he had done. The brave little Irishman was the pet of the regiment. and is remembered by every member of the 17th Alabama Regiment He remained around the hospital for sev. eral weeks. but never had to take his bed from the wound.

The Farmsr. on Roosevelt.

Philadelphia Record.
 The New York World has asked a number of farmers how they feel about being elevated by the Presidents com mission. and we regret to say that their answers are fiippant, rude and even of- fensive They do not seem eager to be elevated. The editor of Country Life In America could tell them how to lay out hundred acre place on the sea- side, or how to arrange a 10,0H0-acre deer park in the mountains, and no other person Is so well qualified as he to tell you how you can spend $15,00o in making $l.b00 farm house artis" tic. And yet these benighted agricul- turists do not seem delighted at the prospect of having their homes made happy, ,~their society made cultivated and the sanitary conditions of their barns improved through the attentions of a Federal commsson.
 Humphrey O'Malley. of Hopewell, N. r., complains that the President "hol- lers about race suicide and now wants 10 improve the sanitary conditions of the farmer. Well, the farmers oan raise more children to the square miles than all the city-bred folks in America can." 180 acres of tne looking land and said: Out there Is the argument that Teddy the Meddler don't know what he's talk ing about. Over there (pointing to the house) are three healthy kids, a good wife, a house with furnace heat and running water. The mail comes every morning. and the daily paper and mag azines are just as familiar to us as to our city nefghbors. Supervisor Brad ley of tI.e township of Walkill. is probably a Democrat, for he said that Roosevelt's commission was entirely uncalled for, and was simply bid for the farmer vote.
 It is discouraging in a man-an or- dinary mAn-who wants to do good in the world. to have hls efforts greeted in this spirit But the President Is not an ordinary man, and nothing discour- ages him. He will seize the American farmer by the coat collar and uplift

When Women Admired whlskeru.

NeW 1oEk HTeSAs
 For ages boards were the delight of ancient beauties The sight of Q shaved chin excited continents of hor- TOT and aversion. To obey the injunc- tions of his bishops, Louis VII of France, cropped his hair a la pompa- dour and shaved off his luxuriant whis- kers. Eleanor Aquitane, his consort. found him with this uncommon ap- pearance very ridiculous and very con temptible. She revenged herself by becoming something more than a COG Quette. The King obtained a divorce. She then married the Count of Anjou, who shortly afterwards ascended the English throne. and gave him as her marriage dover the rich provinces of Poitou and Guienne. And this was the origin of those wars which for 500 years ravaged France and which cost the French nation 100000 men: all of which. probably. had never taken place if Louis VII had not been so rash as to shave off his whiskers, by which he made himself so disgusting to the fair Eleanor.

Ten Thou-ana Idle Cars Set in Motion

EnIldoelpula HTeSd.
 The Pennsylvania Railroad system in the past fortnight has put 10000 Idle freight cars into active service. There could be no more convincing proof that traf1c conditions are headed toward a normal state, after the severe depress sion.
 The Pennsylvania traverses the fat of the land, and it represents more ac- curately than any other single railroad general trade conditions. It hauls coal and steel, grain and ordinary inerchan- disc, and all in huge proportions Hence It's traffic reflects activity O, the lack Of lt along It's II 900 miles of roadway
 Between April. when the industrial and trade depression reached its cii- max, and the middle of July, there were no large reductions in the number of Idle ears which filled hundreds of miles of railroad tracks throughout America. But the P-'nnsylvania's figures, which now show a sudden demand for 0OO0 more cars in a couple Of weeks, reflect the general awakening. for cars ionx Idle on other roads are doubtless be- ing oiled I'D and set in motion.

BETTER WATCH OUT.

From this distance 1t looks very much as if The New York Herald is
 making strenuous efforts to obtain A place on the roster of that famous club founded by Roosevelt for the benefit of all who do not say what he wants them to say. Here Is an extract from one of it's editorials:
 Even Mfr. Bryan's most serious blem- lsh. namely, that he Is a demaEogue of bne extreme type, may not De after RlI very great handicap. The eoun- try has just had almost eight years of experlence with a demagogue of the extremest type in tho White House. And 1t still survives. Why should 1t pot survive four years more with an- yndustry and commerce can scarcely receive d1ercer battering under Mr. Bryan than they have received under Ar, Roosevelt.
 It is quite true that The Herald also gives MT. Bryan a jolt but that will not mollify the Big sticker. He doesn't care. of course, how much opprobrium is heaped on the Democratic candid ate. but fin this case The Herald is not sat- isfied with charaterizing Mir. Bryan ss "a demagogue of the extreme type" but very plainly insinuates that Roose- welt Is worse. According to It's view. MT. Bryan may represent the extreme of demagogy, but is no worse-if so bad-than the present chief executive. The Ananias Club Is yearning and yawning for The Herald.
