cupies more space than the list of any previous year and the premiums are generally larger than they have been before.
 The lists are being sent out by Sec retary Kirk of the commission to all former exhibitors and to all who have made inquiry about the conditions of entry but the business of distribution will rest mainly with the various cOun- ty commissioners and the superintend- ents of the departments who are urged to get busy.
 In the preface the commissioners ex- press their assurance of giving the people a larger and better display than ever before. Increased space for eNhi- bits will be provided and an addition has been made to the grand stand for the accommodation of at least one thousand persons more.
 The pamphlet is something more than a premium list. It is a program for fair week and moreover. contains all the information which visitors and exhibitors would desire. In addition to the usual premiums, prizes have been offered by the Hassayampans to the following fortunates and unfortunates: the oldest married couple; the couple who have been married the longest. who were married in Arizona and have

 LANDS IN MEXICO
Greene & Griffin Investment Co. Widens It's Field of Operations.


 The Greene & Griffin Real Estate ana investment Co. has become asso- ciated with Fred c. Foster in the
 management of the general agency for the entire west, of the Interna- . tional Land company of Kansas City. Mo. This is the company for which Bishop & Haun of this city have the Arizona agency and which business they have been advertising liberally of late.
 The company has for sale approx imately a million acres of land in old Mexico, located on the isthmus of Tehauntepec. in the states of Vera Cruz and OaXaca. These lands are to be sold at from S5.50 to SS per acre. They are said to be of the finest quality, growing cocoanuts, ba- nanas. oranges, cereals. medicinal woods. fibrous plants and in fact all most everything that pertains to those attitudes, while the climate is equable and neither intensely hot nor cold. The lands owned by the com pany are crossed by two railroads, hence the transportation facilities are good.
 J. & Griffin, who has gone to AL buquerque to attend the Irrigation congress. will join an excursion party there, and accompanied by Dr. Ancil Martin, will visit the lands in ques- tion. Mir. Griffin will inspect them carefully and select such acreage as the agency here will undertake to dispose of so that when he returns he will be able to tell his patrons about the lands from personal ac- quaintdnce with them.

Big DectEStmated Excess of Expenditures Receipts

for the first session of the Sixtieth
Congress above the billion dollar

Not so very many years ago Speak
er Reed and his billion dollar Con-
gress startled the country. Now the
country has reached billion dollar
sessions, and 1t takes two sessions to
make Congress.
Not only does the billion dollar ses-

Of financial furry, but it comes with
Treasury depleted and facing a de-
hcit estimated for the fiscal year at
$50, 1000, and for the current year
ending December 81, 1908, at $780,

the Treasury Department recently

A YEAR ON TRAINS.

The ordeal or spending a year on
trains has been gone through with
by an American In Europe for a wag-
.er OF $4,000. His route was from
Vienna to Luiz. Salzburg and Luns-
oruck. repeated without missing a
train.
He was at first ioath to take the
wager because experience had taught
MIN how wearisome railway train life
was, but the prospect of winning the
money for his family enticed him to
accept. He soon realized that he had
moderated his troubles. Nervous at
tacks came on him when he stepped
~om the train. and he felt the
ground quivering beneath him.
After some weeks OF boundless
monotony, and although he read,
slept. spoke and moved about I'm his
compartment, he felt like one robbed
or his freedom. The specter of his
possibly going mad so tortured him
that he felt his will undergoing a
constant struggle not to go near the
door.
Worst of all was the hot summer,
when only iron energy and complete
from smoking and drink
fruit juices-kept

Most Popular Name For Brides

Ann was the most popular name
for brides In 1907. The Maggies, the
Marys, the Hates and the Rosies, all
or whom have in past years carried
off the honor, must now bow to Ann.
Thomas g. Smith, the application
clerk OF the marriage license bureau,
has for years kept a record of the
most popular names of brides, and
his records for 1907 show that there
have been more brides with Ann as
a handle to their names and sur
names than any other.
Katie carries of second honors,
and Mary, once so popular, drifted
away back to the seventh place. In
1906 Maggie won first place, but now
she takes third place.

ular brides of 1907 in their respect
