no idea of further rebellion which she

Mary was beginning in a still greater
outburst of revolt, when she was in

girl with bright blue eyes and bright
red hair, who dashed around the cor

very hot third of July indeed, and the
hottest part of the afternoon.
"Oh, Mary" cried the red.haired
girl

you heard about it? These hateful

The news was evidently authentic,
for Tom was Mary's brother. and both
girls knew his word was not to be
doubted. Besides, he was chairman of
the committee on Fourth of July
sports, which the boys of Douglaston
were going to hold at the village
school grounds. An admission of 25
cents for grown-ups and ten cents for
children was to be charged, and with
the proceeds new suits were to be
bought for the junior ball team. OF
course, in some places the girls
wouldn't have thought of having a
part in so important an event. but the
girls of Douglaston and their summer
visitors were very fond OF all sorts of
sports, and Bunny and Mary were
members of a small group of girls who
had come from big schools where ath-
letics and gymnastic work we're a
most important part of the course.
Consequently they felt deeply ag-
grieved at being debarred from par.

WIRE PAPERS SECURE
 BIG SUM AT DENVER

DENVER, Nov. 10.-Probably be- tween $5O,O0 and $7OOOO was obtained in this city and suburbs and in Salt Lake yesterday as a result of what is believed to have been clever wire tap ping near Latonia race track, by which odds on Howard Pearson, winner of the sixth race were boosted from ' to 1 to 20 to 1, and even as high as 70 to l.
 Hand bookmakeTs here and at the suburbs of Englewood and Litt,eton admitted that they lost heavily on the race, and many of the local book makers refused today to cash Howard Pearson tickets.
 According to one local bookmaker. odds apparently were changed before post time and boost from : to 1, to 20 to 1, does not seem to have caused suspicion. If wire was tapped, post odds were held back and false odds sent. Then plunge was made, and as the tip on the horse was apparently general nearly every bookmaker around Denver lost.
 Said operations extended to Chi cago.

LOCAL COMPANY IS
 WINNER IN DISPUTE

The refusal of the Secretary Of the Interior to grant new hearing to the Arizona Southern company, brings to an end the controversy between that company and the Cochise County Eiec- tric company as to which is entitled to a disputed rich+ ~s rav for an cleo tric railway between here and Doug las. The Arizona Southern company was organized by Cleye N. Van Dyke, with Minnesota capital back of him. while the rival company is composed of local men.
 The Minnesota company was given an adverse decision by the comuis- sioner of the land office The decision was appealed to the Secretary of the Interior, who upheld the commits .ioner. As a last resort, a motion for
 new hearing was asked. 'fh!s vas lso denied. as announced by the As Dciated Press a few days ago.
 There has been no intination of immediate construction on an cleo tric line between this city and Doug las.

NACO MAN WRITES IF GERNANYS
 PROGRESS

Friends of Fred Giesler are in re- ceipt of souvenir post cards and let ters written from his old home in the "Fatherland." GiesIer's home address is Naco, where he has a profitable lumber business. He is also we'll known in Bisbee and other places in Cochise county. His letters state that he expects to remain in Ems, where he is now and where he was reared, until the first of next year.
 There are many in the Warren dis trict wo have a strain of Teutonic blood coursing through their veins and to those who were bora in the Kaisers domains, any description of their native country always calls to the surface the ever-present longing which they have to revisit the scenes of their early days. It was something of this kind which led the Naco man to leave prosperous business and take the long trip home, and it is not improbable that some of the letters. descriptive. and properly understood only by those who have lived across the water. will eventually result in other visits.
 Gieslers native town is picturesque. much effected as a health resort. and noted for its verdure-clad hills, beau tiful drives and enchanting scenery. Modern buildings. built for the pleas ure of health seekers, crowd upon the ancient type of the German dwelling Its inhabitants are prosperous and given to the arts of peace, but never theless trained under the German mil itary system into efficient fighting machines and confident that under the leadership of their naughty kaiser they can put to rout the choice troops of England or any other nation meath the skies.
 There is little cry of hard times in Germany, Giesler, in common with other visitors. states. Crops have been good, the vineyards have yielded lib orally and the hum of industry is heard night and day in the manufac- turing districts. Among the citizens there is little thought of war dsturb- ing their happiness an dwhatever Eng land may fear or the diplomats of Germany plan, her people are inclined toward peace.
 Giesler writes that the improve ments that have taken place in his native land are a revelation to him, despite the word to this effect which has gone out to the world for the past several years. In the arts of com merce and manufacture, in poulation and in civilization, the progress which has been such that the Germany of Ten years ago seems puny by com parison. Under the ambitious leader ship of their emperor that country has led all Europe along these lines. and looks forward to a future limited only by the ambitions of its people.

 McGenley sustained a broken neck and other injuries, which caused al- most instant death. His body was badly mangled by the fall.
 As far as could be learned last night, McGenley, who had worked on the 600 level for some time, peereI over the edge of the platform into the shaft, with the result that he lost his balance.
 With shriek for help which could not be answered by his companinos. who were powerless to aid him. he plunged to his death
 He received medical attention aL once, but life was extinct when he was taken from the shaft.

IS PLENTIFUL
 FOR THANKSGIVING

The general understanding among those who take an interest in such things, that poultry is scarce this year, is at fault, if the opinion of local dealers is of value. Prices this year on. any kind of Thanksgiv- ing piece de resistance, are very reasonable. Kansas turkeys are said to be short of the demand, but Texas turkeys are plentiful. Ducks and geese, hens and springers have been fattening by the hundreds of thous- ands for the thank-offering, and there will be few homes where they cannot be enjoyed with but little outlay.
 Prices in Bisbee for Thanksgiving poultry will run about as follows: Turkeys, alive, 2Sc a pound, dressed 30c a pound; ducks and geese, dress cd, 22c; hens, home-dressed, 2Sc shipped dressed 25c; springers, alive, BOG, dressed 35c. Dealers, as a rule have ordered their supplies in advance and say that from present indications, Thanksgiving in Bisbee will be ger- erally observed and in sumptuoLs style.

They are made to serve as beasts of bur. den, because tbey are more sure-foot. ed than larger beasts, and the noun. tain paths along the foothills of the Himalayas are steep and difficult Tho load for each sheep is from Is to 20 pounds. The sheep are driven from the village to village, with the wool still growing, and in each town the farmer shears as much wool as he can sch there and loads the sheep with the grain which he receives in ex- change. After his flock has been sheared hH turns it homeward each sheep having on its back a small bar containing the purchased grain.

SKUNK HIDES ARE CAUSING LOT IF
 TROUBLE

GLOBE, Nov 10.--By an order is- sued yesterday by Judge E. W. Lewis. Chairman Pat Rose of the county board of supervisors is cited to ap- pear in Court Monday. November 15, and show cause. if any he has, why skunk hides should not be excluded from the courthouse in the future. This order comes as the result ot the belief, held by Judge Lewis, that the bringing of skunk hides into the courthouse constitute a nuisance. As the result, he has taken this step 10 abate this nuisance.
 Chairman Pat Rose of the board of supervisors stated yesterday that he could not show any reasonable cause why skunk hides should be brought into the courthouse and, as the result, an order excluding these malodorous belts will probably be made a week from tomorrow.
 Pat Rose stated yesterday that as far as he was concerned, no skunk hides would be accepted outside of the court House
 The other supervisors will undoubt- edly take the same view of the mat ter and as the result the issuance of an order by Judge Lewis prohibiting the bringing of skunk hides into the courthouse will mean that the con stant drain on the county treasury from bounties paid out on skunx hides will be stopped.
 As soon as the proposed order is fs- suyd by the court. notices will be mailed to the different trappers throughout the county revoking the resolution adopted few days ago, to the effect that skunk hides would be received for five days previous to any quarterly meeting and informing them of the fact that no skunk hides will be accepted at any time during the continuation of Judge Lewis order.
 This method of disposing of the skunk question is certainly unique. but it promises to be decidedly ef- fective.

GOAL IS HIGHER BECAUSE IF
 FREIGHT

Coal consumers in Bisbee will have
 to pay from si5.00 to s20.OO more foi.
 their fuel this winter because of an increase in freight rates, announce ment of which was made yesterday by Secretary Reynolds. of the Bisbee
 Board of Trade. There is nothting unexpected in this to those who have watched the past conduct of the rail roads. Invariably the rates are ais ed in the winter and lowered in the summer
 The new rate raises the price of this commodity from s7.5O to S1o.O0 a ton in car lots. Estimating the con. sumption for domestic purposes dur ing the next six months at 200 ear leads, which is thought to be about r-ght, it vii be seen that the dear consumer will contribute quite a mite before he is through with the matter.
 It is curious fact that the cifi- zens of the Warren district pay on an average of S1.0O a ton more for their coal because they live in a camp where t is necessary to live on the hillside in order to live at all This peculiar condition necessitates the sacldng of the coal in order that it may be delivered by burros. All of the local dealers maintain a burro train as one of the important items of their business These slow but sure footed animals have been ob- jects Of curiosity to visitors to the camp, and many kodak picture cf them has travelled east as an interest ing souvenir of life in a western mining camp.
