MIR. CAMERON ID BE
 AT BOTH MEETINGS
He Will Hurry to Creighton After Ap- bearing at Elks' Thester.

There has been a conflict of dates between the meeting of the republican county candidates and that of MT Cameron at the Elks' theater tonight. It had originally been intended to hold the Cameron rally here on Wednesday night and the republican county com mittee therefore left that date open in order that people from all the county precincts might come to town.
 The date was later changed to to- night and in the meantime the coun- ty committee had filled in all the re- maining dates. including one at the Creighton school house tonight. That had therefore either to be kept or abandoned fer it could not be changed as a meeting has been billed for Wick enburg tomorrow night and every oth- CT night during the campaign is Occu- pied.
 Several republicans from the Creighton neighborhood were in town yesterday and said that the meeting there tonight would probably not be well attended as most of the residents there were desirous of seeing MT. Cameron and had arranged to come to town.
 Then arrangement was reached which will no doubt be found to be satisfactory all around. The Creigh- ton meeting will be held and imme- diately after the address of MT. Cam eron at the theater he will take an auto drive to the Creighton school house reaching it before the speeches of the county candidates have been concluded.

WORLDS FAIR SUIT
 IN SUPREME COURT
Litigation From Santa Cruz County
 Begun Four Years Ago.

The old case of Frank Powers and his wife Josephine Powers against Ray Ferguson, the London Glasgow Mining company and the worlds Fair Mining company came up to supreme court yesterday on an appeal by the plain tiffs from a judgment by Judge Camp bell in favor of the last named defen- dant.
 In September 1903, Ferguson bought or leased of the plaintiffs a group of mines in the Harshaw district, in- cluding the famous Worlds Fair mine out of which the plaintiffs had already grown rich. He was to pay S450.000 for the property, but in the meantime he was to perform certain work on the property yearly, and was to dispose of the ore taken out. Ore of one charac- ter was to be reduced on the ground and that of other character was to be sent to a shelter. Ferguson was to keep for his share $12 per ton of the ore after deducting the expense of smelting or reduction and the balance was to be deposited in a bank to the credit of the plaintiffs. That was the last arrangement, the contract in the first place providing that all proceeds of the ore after deducting expenses were to be placed in a bank in trust.
 The contract was assigned by Fer guson to the London Glasgow company and by it to the Worlds Fair Mining company. The trouble began to ac- cumulate the next year and ever since then the matter has been in litigation. Action was brought by the plaintiff against all of the defendants for the recovery of all the money received from the ores and for writ of in junction restraining the defendants from removing any more ore Money in the bank to the credit of Ferguson and the two companies, amounting to more than $7,0O0 was seized by garn- ishment. it being alleged that the de- fendants were preparing to defraud the plaintiffs of their share of the money.
 The case. as to the London Glasgow company. was tried before Judge Tuck CT. who gave judgment for the amount sued for. little more than $6.000 In the case against the Worlds Fair Min ing company, the defendant was given judgment.

was made glad by finding a bunch of points waiting for him when he came in
 A merchant in town said yesterday. Whenever you see an energetic alert boy or girl coming now some one says is that a Republican contestant? The Phoenix business men are greatly in terested in their contest for it shows the mettle the workers are made of"
 The race is not always to the swift as has been proven many times and some of the contestants whose scores are low must not be . discouraged. Steady consistent work will win quick CT than spurts and jumps without persistence.
 The ones whose scores are lower are gaining slowly but surely and it will only be a question of time until they will be among the foremost.
 Almost One-third of the girls are working for the piano which is a beauty. One of the girls came into the Arizona Republican office last night with a determined expression in her face that argues well for her score. I must win it." she said, its beauti- lul SIle lS ElSnl. ne bdDA ' OSe IS so well know that description is all most unnecessary yet it is a treat to simply go in and see the piano which is on exhibition at Redewill's Music store. Next to the piano the two scholarships in the Arizona School of Music, claim a great share of atten- ton among the feminine portion of the contestants.
 One of the boys said last night. Tt doesn't matter so awfully much if I don't get first prize but I hope I can grab one of those scholarships If I can get a Business College all right. either in Lamson or the Phoenix will do. but if l don't get either why I want a music scholarship for my sis ter"
 Another one said. q don't care so much what prize it is so long as I get in some where In direct contradic- tion to this boy a bright-eyed little chap broke in, Well I want to be first"
 The boys are nearly all working for business scholarships, although one boy and one girl are after the Yosem- ite trips alone

.LOS ANGELES
 ID PHOENIX The Race for the Arizona Republican Cup THERE MAY BE FOUR CARS
One Prospective Contestant Will Enter if Postpone ment of the Start for Two Days Can Be Agreed Upon.

That there will be at least three cars in the Los Angeles Phoenix au-
 tomobHe race is now practically a 'certainty. It is possible that there
 will be four entries. but three are as
 sured if the Marieopa Automobile .cIub will consent to a change in the date from Nov. to Nov. 2.
 Although President Bullard of the
 Automobile club could not be found last night. as he has been called out
 of town, it is thought that there will be no objection on the part of the
 club to the change in date as it will still enable the cars to arrive in
 Phoenix while the territorial fair is
 still in progress.
 Notwithstanding the disaffection of F. c. Feuner of the White garage and
 his efforts to induce R. J. Leavitt. the LocomobiIe agent, to race for a side bet of S1.OO0 under a different
 set of rules the race win be under
 the rules of the 1Iaricopa Automobile club and will be run for the beauti- ful silver cup presented by The Ari- zona Republican.
 Leavitt says that he will not race with the White steamer except for the cup offered by The Republican. He denies that he ever agreed to race
 with Fenner for $1. .GO0-uHdeF any oth- CT rules than those of the AIaricopa club.
 The request' for an extension of time to Nov. : is made by Leavitt and A. J. Smith. who will probably enter the race with an Elmore car This will give them an opportunity to make the trip between Los Angeles and Phoenix before the date set for | the race. as both of them wish to examine the course carefully and be- come familiar with the landmarks. Smith will probably come here within a few days and try out his Elmore on the way.
 Leon T. Shettler has already posted ! his forfeit money and declares that | he will make the trip even though l there were no other competitors With A J. Smith in the race it will uu- | ldoubtedly prove very exciting one. as he is well known in California as a fearless driver and the car he will enter has made many successful en- durance runs across the desert. With three entries and a possible

Tho Prolific Queen Bee.

The queen bee is a great antagon-
ist of race suicide. She strives to
perpetuate the race with an ardor and
an understanding that is worthy of the
highest commentator. Some have
been known to lay 1000 eggs a day for
a year, the number lessening after
that to 1900 and going forward at
that ratio for another two years.
With $4,000 bees to the colony that
single praiseworthy queen laid enough
eggs to establish 46 colonies. Bee
keepers figures on net income Of
three dollars colony each year. II
the owners Of the bee under discus.
sion profited from her labors to that
extent the gain was $148. 1t is not
to be presumed that any such results
were obtained. To argue 80 much in
favor OF one bee would be to place
belief in the statement that q man
with ten acres Of ground and two rab-
bits can become a millionaire In three
years selling rabbit skins to glove
facturers.-Technical World.

STRANGE CAPTURE OF SALMON.
Incident Proves That Belief Of Some
Fishermen Is Wrong.

Fishing well-known river in Nor
way this June, one of the tenants of
the fishing lodge opposite ours caught
a fish of 29. pounds in the morning and
lost another, his spinning line being
broken by the rush Of a heavy fish.
Fishing with prawn the afternoon of
the same day, the same angler, in the
same pool, got into a good fish at his
first cast. After long fight the fish
was gated and landed. Then was re-
vealed strange state of things. The
prawn tackle had never touched the
fish; in fact the hooks were foot or
more from it. They had caught in the
cast which had been lost that morn
ing, and was now twisted into knots
and tangfes, no doubt by the salmon
endeavoring to get rid of the treble
Norsk cast and hooks. The line had
been got rid of. AS the prawn swung
down the pool it had grappled the lost
cast still attached to the salmon, and
fish (33 pounds), cast, and tackle were
recovered. We watched the incident
from the road, and crossing the river
handled the recovered cast. Many
maintain that salmon once hooked and
played for any length of time leave the
pool.-W. H., in London Field.

Plant Stones Of PHILIPPINES.

Plant stones" seem to be among
the rarest Of the strange products Of
the Philippine islands. The tabashir
is variety of opal sometimes deposit
ed In the joints Of the bamboo, and the
beautiful greenish-pink scintillating
specimens of the Philippines are stat
ed by a German publication to be
much more costly than the ordinary
opal. Thousands Of canestalks may be
examined without finding one of these
curious gems, which are probably the
result OF disease or injury. Beautiful
blush pearls or stony secretions are
occasionally formed in some cocoa
nuts and are found, ranging I'm size
from a pinhead to pea, by carefully
examining the interior Of ripe nuts.
About dozen of these exquisite
pearls--all from the Philippines-are
said to be preserved among the treas
ures Of European museums.

The DRAG In Public Schools.


The pace Of classes in our public
grammar schools is determined by the
average pupil, or perhaps pupils a lit
tie below the average. In view of the
TASK thrown upon our grammar
schools, Of taking all sorts of raw
material-children Of foreign birth,
children in whose homes study is i'm.
possible-we can hardly complain that
the work often drags. Our chief criti.
cism Is that in 80 many cases no pro-
vision is made for promoting the
bright children more rapidly. They are
held back In lock-step with the rest.
The boy who can easily complete the
program for three years in two or two
and half, and who would profit large
ly by moving ahead quickly, is not al
lowed to break the ranks. He is under
no stimulus to exert himself and do
his best. AS result, he dawdles and
forms thoroughly bad habits of appli.
cation, habits which may cling to him
and clog him through life.-New York
