scenic attractions lying north of Prescott.
 Local conditions south of Pres- cott are reported as satisfactory by MT. Girand. Three new steel and concrete bridges are to cross Groom, Banning and an unnamed creek, each of sixteen foot spans. This work will be done by the Johnson-Shea company, now con structing the road south from here, and it is the intention to have the Groom creek and Prescott route ready for travel in the next ten days. The grade is finished to Groom City, and is pronounced one of the best sections of work in the country. The construction forces were also doubled yester- day and the next objective point is the saddle in the Mount Union range, completing the first thirteen miles between Prescott and Phoe- nix. The work from now on to the southern goal will proceed rapidly, there being but few places over which bridges are to be built. One very important matter has been decided in the construction of this great highway that com mends itself for the consideration of those who are to use 1t, in that nothing but concrete and steel are to be used in culverts or bridge building. Not an inch of wood will be used at any point, durabil- | ity and permanency being the watchword of the men who are di- recting the great undertaking. - Prescott Journal Miner.

FLAGSTAFF NEXT POINT FOR
 TERRITORIAL ROAD WORK
Territorial Engineers Will Soon Com. mence Work on This End
 of Big Road.

Flagstaff will be the place from which the next territorial road work will be started in northern Arizona, was the news given yes- terday by Territorial Engineer Girand, and this will be started immediately. C. B. Clegg, of his engineer corps, has been directed to proceed to that point forthwith, and to start construction crews working from Flagstaff to Camp Verde. No new roads will be built, however, on that route, the season being too far advanced to- ward winter. Instead, the pres ent grade will be repaired and placed in better condition than ever before. When Wet Beaver creek is reached permanent road will be constructed to the Mogol- Ions mesa, on a new survey to be established. In the spring the in- tention is to return and place that route in first class condition for traffic.
 In speaking of this decision of Governor Sloan and the Board of Control, Mir. Girand states that the repair of the route from Flag staff to Camp Verde is due to the former advertising for bids for the construction of the Verde river bridge, which appears in this mornings Journal-Miner. Coin- cident with the completion of this gigantic structure, it is desired that the roadway between Camp Verde and Flagstaff will also be ready for service, closing consid- eration temporarily for that sec ton of the north and south line. Between Prescott and Camp Verde it IS probable that early action will be taken for the selecting of a permanent route from a point beyond Dewey and where the road forks, one going through Ash creek and the other through Cherry creek, both leading into Camp Verde. The Cherry. creek inter- ests are receiving support from the many people residing in that district, and the various mining camps that are permanently estab- lished at several places within reach of this route. The motto of the Cherry creek advocates is Business and Pleasure, to which is combined the finest

As Mems Fashion
 Notes Might Be

The fashion of allowing the handkerchief to protrude from the breast pocket is dying out. It seems to be tacitly understood that gentleman carries hand kerchief, whether he displays it or not.
 European authorities differ as to whether pocket flaps shall be worn inside or outside this season. If a decision is reached we shall stop the press and announce it.
 The newer collars have clever elastic bands which are intended to inclose the whiskers on windy days.
 The dietarian waistcoat is a new offering. It contains a belt which may be set to the required dimen- sion. When you have. eaten suf- ficient to fill out to that dimension the tension on the belt releases a small alarm bell and you order your coffee. The Delineator.

DRAINAGE Area Of Ohio River.

Beginning in 1907 the United States
geological survey undertook to define
the full drainage area of the Ohio
river basin In square miles. It's first
important subject has been the Ka-
nawha river, where an intensive study
has been In progress. At the mouth
of the Kanawha, where it empties into
the Ohio river, its drainage has been
placed at 10000 square miles.
In 1908 25 gauging stations were
maintained In the Kanawha basin, av-
eraging one station for each 40 square
miles of drainage. Final estimates of
the flow of the river for each month
in the year will require more time or
accuracy in the full report, but from
four of these stations an approxima.
ton has been made, interesting as to
water versus steam power. In the
bulletin of the survey is the state
ment:
The Kanawha river drainage basin
contains abundant water powers and
also great resources Of good coal, and
II hydraulic power can compete with
power developed from steam in this
area it will be possible for it to conf
pete with steam in almost any other

the forces of No. 33 were on hand, led
by their captain. Professor Hanson.
Hello, Hanson" cried Marchant
when he caught sight of the rival
leader. You out for blood again? Re-
member what We did to you on the
diamond last spring."
For answer the cohorts of No. 33
yelled defiance at their opponents and
scurried out of the fort to gather a
fresh supply of missiles. The leaders
met and It was agreed that ten min
utes should be given for the making
and storing up Of ammunition. Both
sides retired to their ramparts. which
were about fifty yards apart, and each
boy began to make snowballs as fast
as his fingers could work. The sun
was shining brightly and the melting
snow on top made balls of Icy hard
ness. Piles of the missiles were
stacked up behind each fort. and on
signal the battle began.
Led by Marchant and Hanson, the
boys sailed forth, and in a few sec
onds the air was full of flying bullets
of snow. A large crowd gathered on
the adjoining street to witness the
contest.

But Marchant called to them to
rally and save their ammunition for a
charge Though stung by the shots
they had received. they responded to
his appeal. Hands and pockets full OF
snowballs, they rushed bravely on the
ramparts OF No. SO, waiting until they
got within fifty feet before opening
fire. When they did fire the effect of
their volleys was instantaneous. The
battle line of No. 33 weakened and
