 The credits for new subscriptions
Arizona republican., 1908-11-10

Yesterday was school children's day at the fair, and most of the contest ants being school children took advan- tage of the fact and went to the fair. The excitement was too intense for them to get much action on subscrip- ton work. but some of the scores show good gains.
 While so many visitors are in the city there is a good opportunity for the contestants to get a lot of new subscriptions. That they will take ad vantage of the fact will be evidenced by the big increase in scores this week.
 Word comes to headquarters that Walter Tway the Mesa boy has gone to Roosevelt to hustle for subscrip- tions Walter is a good worker and when he returns from that scene of activity he will doubtless send his score up a notch or two. It behoves the rest of the contestants to get right after the subscriptions. Build the score up while there is a chance.
 THE SCHOOL OF MUSIC.
 The contestants who rae working for scholarships in the Arizona School of Music can feel well assured that when they earn a scholarship in that insti tuition. they will have opportunity to study in the best musical school in the west.

CUSTOM OF ORIENTAL NATIONS.
Salute by kissing the Foot Is as Old
aS History.

The custom OF kissing the feet OF
persons whom 1t was desired to honor
originated with the ancients. The PEG
pie of oriental nationals used to kiss
the hands and feet or hens of the
clothes of the persons they wished to
show respect for.
The ancient Egyptians got this Gus
tom from the Assyrians, and later the
Greeks adopted the habit from the
Egyptians. The Romans followed the
Greeks, and then Pontifex Maximus
had his great toe kissed by celebrities
The story will be remembered of the
old Briton ruler who appeared to do
homage to a Roman monk after the
conquest of Briton. He was told that
1t was customary to kiss the foot OF
the holy father. He hesitated for
a moment and then, bending down,
he suddenly seized the monk by the
ankle and, Jerking it up to his lips,
toppled the worthy father over back
ward.
The toe of the sultan of Turkey is
kissed by subjects of high rank. Those
of more lowly position are merely
allowed to touch the fringe of his gar
ment to their lips, and the poorest
classes must be content to make a low
obeisance in his Observation-Disclosures

ANOTHER SHELTER

ARIZONA COMMERCIAL TO ISSUE
$500 900 CONVERTIBLE BONDS TO
PROVIDE REDUCTION WORKS
AND FOR DEVELOPMENT.

From the Boston News Bureau it is
Copper company is now considering
plans FOR the erection of its own reduc.
ton works. Ii is estimated a smelling
plant of capacity of 800 to 500 tons
of ore per day would call for an ex.
penditure of possibly 100000 and
would take six to eight-months to build.
The company has been pushing devel-
opment work in opening up the property
and has pretty well exhausted the $3.50
600 raised two years ago, SO that when
money IS raised for the purpose of erect
ing plant. sufficient additional
amount will also be provided to com
plete development work so that no more
money will be required.
The question of new financing will
receive the early attention of the di-
rectors, and will probably take the
form of an issue of 100000 5 per cent
convertible bonds, to be sold at par.
The issue will be underwritten. 1t is
believed that 100000 of new money
for the Arizona Commercial proposition
will supply all the funds necessary to-
place the company in a position to be
substantial contributor of copper.
The Yaising of such new capital will
neeessitate the increasing of the stock
by 10000 to $4,000 shares, to meet the
conversion of the bonds. Stockholders
will be given the opportunity to sub
scribe for the new bonds.
