building of the Port Lobos railroad will necessitate large additions to the forces of clerks already employ ed and the offices of the railroad company will necessarily be at the proposed northern terminus. It is therefore considered that it will be more advan ageous to have the forces concentrated than to have two forces about equally divided between Tombstone and Silverbell.
 Clifton Era: Dell M. Potter has returned from a ten days business trip throughout Arizona. His trip was for the main purpose of meet ing Mir. Hill of the reclamation service, to get data for the building of the two dams for irrigation and power, which he hopes to get under way very soon. The Roosevelt dam being of great benefit, the expert ence of the engineers, and the pro- blems being encountered there, be. ing in many instances the same that he will have in his projects. Mir. Potter says: "rhe entire Gila Valley will have sn abundance of water, no matter bow dry the sea- son, and many thousands of acres of new land will be put under culti- vation. 1 leave for the valley, in this connection, the coming week !; the building of these dams will mean much to Clifton. as the far thest point where a dam will be built is not over eight miles,"

 Tombstone Prospector: With two deep wounds in his breast an unidentified Mexican was found dead in the railway yards at Bowie yesterday morning. The murdered man had evidently been killed some hours before, as the body was cold and the blood from the knife thrusts had become dried. Two unknown men had engaged in fight late Monday evening, but it was not thought to be serious and the affair received no attention. From the appearance of the dead man, he is thought to have been a laborer. He was about 35 years of age. The affair is being rigidly investigated by the authorities at Bowie in hopes of finding some clue to the identity of the mur- derer.
 Tucson Citizen: w. B. Coberly, head of the big Coberly cattle ranch had the narrowest escape of his cattle experience Friday. He states that although he has been at the business for many years he has not gone through more thrilling ex- perience or felt death to be so near. Mir. Coberly was assisting in a big round up Friday and was in a corral where there were a number of wild steers. Suddenly one came at him from an unexpected quarter and was ready to gore him when discovered. Seizing his only chance to escape, Mir. Coberly dropped to the ground and the steer rushed on over him. The hoofs of the animal struck MT. Coberly and bruised him up some, but otherwise he was not hurt. His hat was torn to pieces. He says that he does not want to go through such an ex- perience again.

Literary Notes.

For those towns and cities which are planning new and appropriate form of Fourth of July celebration this year, the July Century contains articles of special interest and suggestiv eness from the pens of writers whose practi- cal experience in organizing and man. aging great popular festivals gives them a peculiar right to be heard on this subject. Two years ago the Gen. lury published an article by Mrs. Isaac l.. Rice, president of the New York Society for the Suppression of Cnnec- tssary Noiseo entitled "Our Barba- Ious Fourth, as result of which a strong and widespread movement was initiated looking to the substitution of a more adequate and inspiring observ- anee of independence Day than the meaningless and noisy celebrations to which We have been accustomed. What has actually been done and what il is hoped will be done in the near flu. ture by this movement forms the sub- ject of two articles in the JnlyGentury. One of these Is by Mr. Percy MackaA C, who gives in detail the programme of the Independence Day festival which he has organized, with MT. John W. Alexander, for Pitts6urg, the other is oy Ellis Paxson Oberholtzer, director of the Historical Pageant in Phiiadel. phia in l Os, who here presents an en- tertaining survey of sHistoricol Pa geants in England and America the value of which is enhanced by illustra. lions. Both these articles, besides tell. ing what has already been done in the revival of me ancient art of pageantry for patriotic purposes, are filled with practical suggestions which will be of the highest use to those communities where ''the new Fourth of July is de- sired.

a short distance from where 1 discov- cred mine, and placed in similar po- sition as to height and location in a clump of small bushes. After compar- ing the two sets of eggs, and finding that the latter were less sharply point ed at the smaller end, we entered the domain of the Chat, hoping for at least a glimpse of that most difficult of birds to see. After trying in vain for W hile to locate the singer, my companion ob- tained a momentary sight of it, as it flew from one bush-t tangle to another. 1 was less fortunate. The most com mon notes were sharp, high pitched "tu.ee,h and a succession of loud, mel low whistles. We were obliged 10 leave the field without finding the nest and with nothing more tangible on my part, at least, than the birds vocal per formances.
 Me now spent about fifteen minutes. strenuous work hunting for the nest of U Maryland Yellow-throat, which we knew, from the birds distress, must be near, but our search on the ground in low black berry vines, and in bram- bles, was without avail. After a fur. ther search for other nests, during which the Chats whistled call led us each to believe that the other had sig. nailed, thus disappointing our hopes of new-found nests, we rested awhile, and then, as the afternoon was draw ing to close, weistarted on our home ward way.
 On our return we passed through the wooded run which sheltered the Black and White Warbler's brook-side home, but the little mother had evidently seen Us, as our approach was less hid- den than it had been before, and we saw only the nest and the eggs which were warm from the brooding.
 Just before leaving the field il was the happy lot of my fellaw-searcher to find another 1hewink's nest, from which the mother bird had flown a short distance ahead of Is, and which we had both hunted for only short time. This contained four eggs.
 It was destined To be our last find, but considering the small amount of territory that we had covered. and the small amount of time we had had at our disposal, we thought that, on the whole, We had been very fortunate in finding these few homes that belonged to our Bird Friends of the Wiids.

Hunting for Bird Homes in June.
nY A-w. urnAA.

On fine day tn the early part of June, We found an opportunity to carry ont previously conceived plan, that of spending a halt day in the SerN pleas. ant and profitable occupation of search. Ing for bird homes
 About week before. my companion had found a Brown Thrasher's nest near some woods short distance away, but upon arriving there We found that the nest, which was placed upon the ground under thick, >crahhy bush, and which had previously contained eggs, was empty. Whether some bird enemy had despolIed tho home, or whether the eggs had hatehed aud the young birds gone--whieh 1 thought might he pessiele--we could not con lecture.
 In the woods nearby we heard the oxen-hird,s eSelamatery ong.--the sweet, viNacious "wit il ye, wit U ye. wit II ye.n ef the Maryland Yellow throat, and among others, the tvacious strain of the Ghestnnt.sided Warbler. But as 1 had always had success in ind ing nests in a certain oNergrown pasture lot about fifteen minutes walk from there, We did not taFry, but left the singers uudistaEbed in their haunts, and went on our way through eashy fields, and open pastures to th.s hird- Paradise. When nearly there, we were descending siee P, wooded bank, which bordered one side of dsshing little brook, when an exclamation from my eompanion caused mc 10 take my eyes from the intricacies of the path, and, looking up, saw little bird, running on ahead of us with dropped wings and limp body.

Vast Importance of Good Public Roads.

Vast Importance of Good Public Roads.
 The Congressional committee on Az ricultare, in their report on the impor- tance of good public roads, make this remarkable statement:
 "rhe road system of France has been of far greater value to the country as s means of raising the value of lands and of putting the small peasant pso- prietors in easy communication with their markets than have the railways.
 Ill is the opinion of weil-inforuied Ffenchmen. who have made . practi. cal study of economic problems. that the superb roads of France have been one of the most steady and potent con- triouticns to the material development and marvellous financial elasticity of the country. The ar-reaehing and splendidl ly-mainIained road sy stem hes distinctly favored the success of the small landed proprsetors, and in their prosperity and in the ensuing dixsribu- tion ot wealth lies the key so the se- cret of the wonderful financial vitali- sy and solid prosperity of the Frsach Nasion.s

Honored by the Red Cross.

At the late annual meeting of the American Red Cross, of which Presi- dent Taft is president, it was recom- meuded that silver medals be given to Dr. F. D. Shepard and Rev. $. R. Trow bridge for their services in con- nection with the Adana massacres last April. Both men are American Board missionaries. Dr. Shepard is one of the foremost physicians in the Turkish empire, and has been in Aintab more than ? years. Just as the people of that city were ready to celebrate the quarter-centennial he was summoned to poor patient in Aleppo and hurried of, saying, "that mans life is worth more than all this celebration so the exercises had to be postponed a week. Then more than 5000 people gathered, representing all nationalities and reli- gions, to do honor to himself and wife. All the speakers paid glowing tributes to the work of the hospital, which he opened in Aintab in 1883, and empha- sized the fact that he could easily have won a fortune had he used his remark able skill simply to get gain.
 Mrs. Shepard has rendered valuable service in the industrial training of women. In the linen embroidery work in Aintab alone 5o,000 women are em- ployed, of whom 10000 are Mohamme- dans.
 Mfr. Trowbridge. the son of mission ary, is young man and his rescue ef the pupils of one of the American schools, when he rushed into crowd of infariated ruffians, and stopped them from destroying the buildings and the houses adjoining, would doubt less entitle him to Red Cross medal. But his single acts of heroism were only small part of what he did. In caring for the hundreds of refugees afterwards both he and Dr. shepard showed exc cutiye ability of a high order. They are still directing relief work, especial ly the rebuilding of homes for the homeless.

Gardner last night. Professor Church.
i'll has severed his connection with the
A. c. and leaves at the end of this
week for Saltwater, Okla, where he
assumes his new. position on the faculty
of the Oklahoma State Agricultural
college.
The dinner was given by the mem
bers Of the A. G. faculty and friends
Of Professor Churchill. Much regret
has been expressed over his departure
and it is generally realized that the
agricultural college loses a valuable
member Of it's faculty.
Professor Churchill has been the
business manager of the athletic asso-
citation and has been closely associated
with Coach Reuber during the foot
ball season this fall In that capacity
he will be greatly missed for the as
sociation felt that it's finances and
management could not have been
placed in more competent hands than
when under the supervision of Pro-
lessor Churchill. He will begin his
new work Immediately after the holt
days.

HOW IT APPEALS
TO MRS. STEVENS
WELL KNOWN EDUCATOR AND
WRITER GIVES HER impress.
SIoNs OF YOUNG FOLKS INsTI.
TUTE WEEK AT A. c.-REsT
BLOOD or NORTH DAKOTA.

Mrs. J. McNaughton Stevens, chap
erone Of large delegation at the
boys and girls institute now on the
A. c. gives her impressions of the big
event as follows:
Some Of the best blood in Dakota,
that is the way we were introduced by
a man who is master of his subject,
and was about to address US.
I'VE come from twenty two counties
from Williams on the west to Pembina
in the east, from Richland to Billings
! and Hettinger, and from Stutsman to
McHenry. There are over 100 of us.
and we have all earned our places i'm
| this party by our prowess in the
| field. We are the corn growers of the
rural schools. We are the prize win
ners in our local contests. Some Of
| our girls are prize breadmakers: some
won out on cookies and doughnuts.
| others won prizes on jellies or canned
| Strawberries, which they had grown:
and some of the girls had on the
aprons that they had won prizes on.
All this we owe to the extension
work of the A. c. and it's leader, Prof.
G. W. Randlett. When one Of his fell
low workers said to me, He is pure
gold l agreed with him heartily,
THE mother of this movement to
enable the prize winners to visit the
A. c. for an entire weeks institute is
Mrs. Lowell, superintendent of Dickey
county. Just see her and her delega-
ton of boys marching around to the
Deer park; then off to the Grove to
see the trees in their winter settings,
and you will understand and admire.
Her boy problem is solved.
Never have / seen such enjoyment
as these boys and girls show at this
institute. They are enjoying fore
taste Of responsibility, they are hand |
ling money of their own and paying
their own way. They are behaving |
thoughtfully and earnestly with pur- |
pose and union. Their notebooks are |
always on hand taking notes on the
buildings and the work carried on in |
them, of the laboratories, the engineer |
ing department and the boys and
girls dormitOries.
Every member of the bows and |
girls institute is going home to tell I
the farmers about it.
THE best hours were spent in the
gymnasium. where enthusiasm was
shown for athletics. But the priceless
privilege of the institute has been the
spirit of the lecturers who have look
ed into the eyes Of our coming citizens
and have been touched to their finest
issue. We heard Professor Waldron
speak on horticulture and saw him |
graft trees with great interest
but time and space fail to tell of /
all the good things which we saw and |.
we can only be thankful for men like 4
