Phoenix, Ariz., July 5.-Dclegate
Cameron is one of the many happy cit
liens of Arizona, who are wearing a
happy smile these days because their
state is to be admitted into the Union.
An interesting yarn is told about Mr..
Cameron in which President Taft is
vitality interested, for had 1t not been
for his assistance the president would
not now have the services of c. D.
Norton as his private secretary. The
incident occurred some time ago while
Norton was on a hunting trip in Ari-
zona- Norton had wandered away
from the party and had not been seen
by anyone during the entire day. AS
night fell much concern was felt for
his safety, and searching parties were
organized in an effort to locate him.
The following day he came riding into
camp on a mule with Mr.. Cameron as
a guide, none the worse for his ex-
perience which might, however, have
been fatal.
Norton had become lost in the wild
erIess and only by the 'merest chance
had Mr.. Cameron happened to locate
him and bring him safely into camp.

NO WILD BERRY
CROP THIS YEAR.

Duluth, July 5.-There will be no
wild berry crop this year in north
ern Minnesota.
Those whos have been anxiously
awaiting the ripening of the ber-
ries say that owing to the drouth
there will be but few berries.
Duluth is famous for Its annual
crop of raspberries and other wild
fruit which annually thrives on
it's hills Each year the hills are
thronged with people, some Of
whom pick the berries for amuse-
ment and others who pick them to
sell.
To those who pick them to sell,
the fact that there will be but
few this year will be a real ca
lamity. Many women and chill
dren annually make pin money in
this way while others are depend
emit upon the money for part of
their support.
The berries that are put up"
for winter use this year by Du-
luth housewives will come most
" from outside the city. AS these
berries are usually costly, but lit
tie fruit will be prepared for winter
use this year.
