ARIZONA COPPER STAKE
STEADILY GETS BIGGER
Recent Additions to This Great Racing
Prize.

Not much has been said about the
Arizona Copper Stake lately but it has
been growing all the time and lately
it has received important additions so
that ii is certain now that it will be
bigger prize than any of the great
race meets of this or any other season
have hung up. Col. w. p. Dunham
president of the Hercules Mining COM
pany, has just contributed $3.50 and j.
c. Adams has received word from
President ID. c. Jackling, of the Utah
Copper company and managing direc-
tor OF the Ray Consolidated, subserib-
ing $3.50 to the stake.
Mr. lacking also writes that he will
be in Phoenix on october 10 and in
consequence though he is not an Ari-
zonian he has been put on the presi-
Dental reception committee.
Col. Jackling is a member of the
staff of Governor Spry of Utah ana
on the occasion of the recent entrance
of President Taft into that state, Col
lacking rendered the governor the use
of his private car to meet the presi-
dental party. 1t was the handsomest

DENMARK A6oLIsHEs POVERTY
AMONG THE AGED.

With old-age relief. Denmark has
had a significant experience in proof
of the ancient maxim, The more you
do, the more you may do" In 1898.
about $4,000 aged persons were enjoy
ing assistance from the community: in
1905, there were nearly $1,000 There
has been no increase in poverty. or
in population. to explain this growth:
and ii seems that the larger number
must be accounted for by the fact that
now. as age comes on. the individual
begins to arrange his affairs so that
he can obtain the government help.
Furthermore the average amount paid
out per person has. since 1894, gone
from 1880 to something more than
SIG. But Denmark is a land of pros
perity; the expenditure, if divided up
among all the people, would be only
about thirty cents for each. and. even
though the Danish old-age provision is
expensive. no one cares
One advantage of the Danish law
over the German plan is that it pro-
tects all the aged and deserving poor.

BURGLARS ROBBED
1.-THE TROTTER STORE
Got Away With Nice Little Sun, of
Cash and Check.

Some time during Saturday night the
residence and store of r. l.. Trotter. at
1901 east Van Buren, street. was en-
tered by burglars who were quite well
paid for their trouble, and who made
clean getaway. That is. they were
well paid unless the police or sheriff
can get hold of them. in which event
they viii probably laugh left handed.
The burglar or burglars. for there is
no certainty whether it was one per-
son or more, secured in the neighbor-
hood of sixty dollars in currency, coin
and a check. The check was for three
dollars and had been drawn by J. II.
Schoolbridge on the Phoenix National
Bank in favor of John MARITIME.
Mr.. Trotter slept on the second floor
of the building over the store and did
not hear the burglars. not being aware
of the robbery until yesterday morn
ing. Suspicion is directed toward two
Italians who visited the store in the
evening preceding the robbery. though
they are only connected by their rath-
er peculiar transaction. They came
from the direction of town where there
are many big stores open, and on en-
tering the little grocery. asked for
some underwear, line the proprietor
did not carry.
Ii seemed rather strange that they
should go from Phoenix out into the
suburbs to try and buy underwear.
nevertheless the proprietor did not
consider it was any of his business
Finally they offered the MARITIME check
and bought a pie. securing the differ
ence in cash. II would now appear
that their only purpose was TO find out
if the storekeeper had any money in
the drawer. The officers are trying
to locate the two Italians in the hope
of either fastening the crime upon
them or clearing them of suspicion.

THROAT TROUBLES
WEAKEN THE SYSTEM

A serious illness is often brought
on by neglected sore throat.
All throat troubles invariably
weaken the system and should
not be allowed to go unchecked.
A gargle made with ten drops of
Sloan's Liniment in half glass of
water will break up a sore throat.
ST. ans Liniment is an excellent
remedy for tonsilitis, Group, asthma
and brinchitis. Applied freely to
the outside of the throat and chest,
it draws out the inflammation, re-
duces the swelling and relieves
any soreness. Twelve drops of this
Linament in half glass of water
makes an excellent antiseptic gar
gle.
Mr.. Albert w. Price of Fredonia,
Kans., writes I'VE have used
Sloan's Liniment in the family for
about a year, and find it an excel
lent relief for colds and hay fever
attacks. Two drops of the Lini-
ment in teaspoonful of water will
stop coughing and sneezing in
stantly."
Mr.. L. 7. Hurst of Coatsville,
Ind, R. R. No. I writes:-"I find
your Liniment the best remedy l

ing Rink Nuisance--Other
Proceedings.

Hendrix College was last night
elected alderman of the third ward
to fill the vacancy caused by the
resignation of Bruce T. Bullion,
which was just previously rendered.
President Anderson was nominated
by Alderman w. w. Martin and

served as alderman of the third

received the votes of Aldermen
McCulloch and Newbern. Alder
man Schwarz was absent from
the meeting.
Mr.. Bullion resigns the position
which he has held for nearly four
wears on account of having accept
ed the Office of private secretary to
Governor Donaghey and adJutant
general of the state guard. his
resignation was addressed to Mayor
Witt and was rendered to the coun-
Gil last night.

raised last night, it is being claim
ed by some this morning that
neither one of those nominated tor
alderman received enough votes
for an election. The resignation OF
Mr.. Bullion leaves six members OF
the council, the mayor and i've
aldermen, and it is stated that a
majority of the council, or four
votes, would be necessary to an
election. Whether any steps will
be taken to contest the election,
however, could not be learned to-
day.
