II the board OF education refuses 70
allow eighteen-year-old Charles Castle
and his younger sister, children OF
Charles Castle OF 2Ol6 Eighth street to
attend school without being vaccinated
a writ of mandamus will be obtained
suspending the regulations until the mat
ter is settled in the courts
Mr.. Castle and his counsel, Attorneys
Darr, Peyser & Taylor. backed by the
Anu-Vaccination Society. are determined
to test the enforced innoculation law in
the United States Supreme Court If nee
essary.
Children Refused AdmIttance.
The preliminary gun OF the battle Of
the society against compulsory vaccina-
ton went of yesterday morning when
the Castle children were refused admit
lance to the schools at the opening of
the term.
Mr. Castle had expected a refusal. and
counsel was retained at once A compIl-
cation arose when IL was discovered that
Il the Castle children are not sent 10
school, their parents can be prosecuted
under the compulsory education law So
they must either be vacCinated. which
their parents absolutely refuse 10 have
done, go 10 a private school, or get a
mandamus suspending action by the
board Of education until a court decision
IS handed down
The latter course was decided upon at
a conference with the attorneys yester-
day afternoon. In the meantime. the
Castle children viii have q little more
vacation time. and the lawyers will de-
mand a hearing .sfore the board Of edu-
cation al It's first meeting
Capt oyster OF the board. said that he
was not in favor OF compulsory vacci-
nation and never had been, but that the
law says 1t must be, and that he did not
believe test case would help matters
any.
Thinks Test VIII Tell.
Attorney Darr thinks otherwise, and
believes he can convince the board OF
education that the matter IS too serious.
and that public sentiment is too strong
against enforced incubation 20 be met
with an arbitrary ruling in the case Of
the Castle children.
Health Officer Woodward said he was
intensely interested in the case. but he
did not think the law could be modified.
This is not a question OF hostility
toward the board Of education" said At
torney Darr, discussing the case. We
realize that the board has no choice. save
10 enforce the law as il stands, but we
think the law as II stands is unconsu-
tutional and We shall test il.
The compulsory education law. while
apparently compncating the present test
case, will really help US. What. for in
stance. can the board Of education do If
parents refuse 10 have their children vac
cinated They cannot make them have
il done and yet the children must go
to school. 1t is a very interesting ques-
ton. and should be settled for all time. "

C0LBURN DRAMATIZES CROPS
Kansas Agricultural Secretary Known
All Over Nation.


All Over Nation.
IF you want to interest people in a
proposition you must make it dramat-
ic," says a writer in the July American
Magazine by way Of Introduction to
his subject, F. D. Colburn, the secre-
tary Of the Kansas state board of agri-
culture. Continuing, this writer says:
Ordinarily, even in a granger state,
nobody knows who the secretary Of
the board of agriculture is, even if it
lis known that such a board exists.
But everybody in Kansas knows Col
burn, and lot of people in other parts
Of the country. A governor once re-
ferred to him as the most useful cit
izen Of the state. He has dramat1zed
the growing Of crops and live stock.
How could the most callous farmer
escape unmoved bombardment by at
tractively printed booklets with such
1nspirational titles as The Hogs Hap
py Habitat The Helpful Men, Prof
liable Poultry 'Alfalfa's Afinity?'
"Without Colburn Kansas would be
empty. Envious Missourians are fond
of specializing on the enormous salary
their state could afford to pay him if
his services were in the market. But
they aren't. A few years ago the gov
ernor Of Kansas offered him the ap-
pointment Of United States senator.
He refused it on the ground that he
had mo inclination or aptitude for
politics and that he felt he could be
more useful in his present job"

NATURE TELLS YOU,

AS Many Princeton Reader Knows
Too Well.
When the kidneys are sick, nature
tells you all about it. The urine is
natures calendar. Infrequent or too
frequent action; any urinary trouble
tells of kidney Ills. Doan's Kidney
Pills cure all kidney ills. Princeton
people testify to this.
Mrs. S. Harrington, Princeton,
Mimi, says: "About two years ago
my kidneys became disordered and
my back panied me constantly. The
kidney secretions were also very un-
natural. I was unable to rest we'll
and as the result arose in the morning
feeling nervous and languid. My
mother finally procured Doan's
Kidney Pills for me and since using
them, am enjoying good health. I
give Doan's Kidney Pills the entire
credit for this great change. !"

American Professor to Visit Land Un-

Marshall II. Saville, professor of
archaeology at Columbia university,
has started for Peru and Ecuador by
way of the isthmus Of Panama and
will be absent eight months. The pro-
fessor said that he was going first to
Lima, Peru, to examine specimens of
ancient pottery made by the 1ncas and
then to Quito, Ecuador.
''From that point" Professor Saville
announced, II am going to make an
expedition into the interior Of Ecuador,
first to the south and then north to-
ward the United States Of Colombia.
The journey to the interior will be
made by mules and canoes, but some
Of the denser forests will have to
travel on foot. We shall penetrate
where no white men have explored
since the expeditions by the Spanish
Adventures in the sixteenth century
and expect to bring back specimens of
the native products that will show the
mode Of living Of the early inhabitants
of that part Of South America"

Since the published description of
the processes Of DR.. Frederick w.
LANCE, the Scranton Pa.) physician
who claims to have discovered the long
sought secret of transmitting base met
ais into silver, a great number of
chemists and metallurgists have come
forward with statements denunciatory
Of DR.. Lange's claims, declaring the
transmutation Of metals to be an ut
ter impossibility.
One man who asserts gold can be
made is Austin Granville, a New York
mechanical engineer, who gives a for
mula and the following history Of sue
cessful experiments:
T.: Claims Brice Did 1t.
upon reading the articles upon the
manufacture Of silver by DR.. Frederick
w. LANCE Of Scranton, Pa, my atten-
ton was attracted to one which had
reference to the experiments made sew
eral years ago by e. c. Brice, who
claimed to be able to transmute the
baser into the nobler metals and who
actually did successfully make, to my
own knowledge, upon several occa-
sions antimonial oxides from chemical
~ pure materials which rendered up,
under the we'll known processes of
specification and cupeuation. VEGETABLE
quantities Of gold of a fineness of
$22.67 per ounce.
AFTER severe examination of Mr..
Brice's claims by experts in chemis-
try and metallurgy took Mr.. Brice
down to see Lyman J. Gage, then Sec
rotary Of the treasury. MI. Gage con-
sented to the appointment of a COM
mission. The treasury laboratory was
placed at our disposal for three weeks.
Several demonstrations were made by
Mr.. Brice under conditions which did
not admit of any chicanery. On sew
eral occasions gold beads were obtain
ed from chemically pure materials.
Mr.. Brice quarreled with one Of the
commissioners, and the government re-
fused to go further with the expert
ments.
Process Too Expensive.
"Mr. Brice and returned to Chicago,
where. with several friends. I raised
the necessary capital for him to equip
a factory. where many small ingots Of
gold were made, the shares of the COM
pany going to fabulous prices. MI.
Brice. however, failed to make the gold
in paying quantities, every dollars
worth he produced costing uuadruDle
its value.
''Brices theory was that sulphur con-
tanned gold and was the matrix of
that metal, much as aluminium is today
obtained from bauxite. Any chemist
who will try out the laboratory formu-
la given herewith can convince himself
that Brice's process was scientifically
correct, though one may doubt it's com.
mercial utility"

Not long ago a Berlin manufacturer

had not been driven to find some sure
preventive Of hog collie, which now
and again ravaged his farm. Bill, the
largest and Oldest hog on the ranch,
began to display symptoms Of the dis
ease, and Rogers determined that it
must have exercise. The idea that it
could be made to haul a wagon struck
him all at once. He put it into prac-
tice after series of difficulties.
Rogers says hogs could be easily
trained and made useful draft animals
in light farming. They are strong for
their size, he says, and could be prof
itably employed in drawing cultivators
through planted fields. -

ROOSEVELT HOST
vERB|ACE VICTIM.
Oxford College Don Can't Get
Language Straight.
ORIGINATOR OF SPOONERISMS

Asked For "Pigs' FIeas" at Dinner,
Read First Line of Hymn as "From
lceIand's Greasy Mountains" and
Described Wife as "Hitting tho Nose"
of His Child.
The heads Of four Oxford colleges
gave receptions in honor of Mr.. Roose-
velt. One of them was at New col
lege, where the colonel's host was the
famous DR.. Spooner, who has given to
the English language the term "Spoon-
erism."
1t is doubtful, perhaps, If the quaint
little doctor has perpetrated one Of the
verbal mixups to which his name has
been given, but generations of under
graduates have exercised their ingenu-
ity in fabricating examples. Most peo-
pie at some time or other have unwit-
tingly made a spoonerism, but the
New college don is supposed to make
them all day long.
A spoonerism consists of the transpo-
sition Of the initial letters Of two or
more words in the same sentence.
Some Of the best known examples at
tributed to the head Of New college
are supposed to have been made at
table or in the college chapel.
Wanted "Pigs' Fleas."
Once when he wanted some stewed
figs he is said to have electrified a
luncheon party by asking a lady to
pass him the pigs feas. Those who
know the doctor would understand at
once that he was merely asking for
"the figs, please ...
At the same luncheon he is said to
have asked his neighbor to have "some
of this stink puff" pointing to an orna-
mental dish Of pink jelly. In chapel it
is recorded that he has read out the
first line Of the we'll known hymn
which starts "From Greenland's icy
mountains as ttFrom Iceland's greasy
mountains," and has spoken Of the
wicked men whose words were 'as
ears and sparrows."
Once, when he was not officiating in
the service, he was surprised to find
some one occupying his pew in chapel
and addressed him sternly with "Are
you aware, sir, that you are occupew-
ing my pie?"
One Of the quaintest mixups put
down to him is perhaps a phrase he
once used in a sermon. Speaking Of
the vague, half formed wish so often
experienced in the mind, he said,
1--WE all know what it is to have half
warmed fish in u.s.
Transpositions Arc Curious.
Late for dinner one night, he sided
into the room with the explanation
that he had been matching a pasty
snipe." Even an old friend would
take a moment or two to translate this
into scratching hasty pipe"
His poetical description Of a gypsy
encampment as "a tipsy gent pitched
In a pot of grease" was even more
complicated. OF course he meant "a
gypsy tent pitched in a grot Of peace"
His description of his baggage to a
railway porter as 1.-TWO rags and a
bug" was simpler
There is something forced perhaps
in his definition Of happy evening as
reading quietly by the Preside, while
his dear wife was Uniting the nose'
of his little one.s

Public Schools.
The report of the superintendent of
public instruction for the territory
covering the fiscal year, shows a sat
isfactory growth in all branches of our
educational system. The last school
census shows a school population of
1871, an increase of 2O62 over the
previous year. Manual training and
domestic schools have been established
in several counties of the territory,
with good results. During the year the
territorial board of education adopted
new course of study for use in the
primary and grammer schools and also
a uniform course of study for high
schools.
The total value Of territorial school
property is s1.6sS,653 and the bonded
school debt is s1,213,197
History of Arizona.
Realizing the Importance of collect
ing and perpetuating existing data
needed for compiling an accurate and
comprehensive history of Arizona, the
legislature created the office of histo-
rian, and during the past year extern
sive research has been carried on and
marked progress made in the work.
Irrigation.
The dam at Roosevelt is to all in
tents and purposes completed The i'm
pounded water supplementing the nor
NAL flow Of the Salt and Verde rivers
has enabled the farmers in the Salt
River valley to grow the largest crops
on the largest acreage in the history
of the valley The reclamat ton service
during the year began the construction
of the siphon under the Colorado river
which is needed to carry the water
from the Laguna dam on the Arizona
side for use on the lands below Yuma
This work will be completed early
during the year 1911.
Crops generally throughout the ter
ritory have been good. especially IN
the irrigated sections. Prices of farm
products have been high with a ten
dency to increase rather than decrease,
so that farmers have greatly prosper
ed.
Orange Growing
The winter of 1909-1O was the cold
est for many years. Some damage was
done TO young citrus trees and to the
fruit, but on the whole the territory
suffered less in this respect than did
the citrus fruit growing sections OF
California. The experience of the year
has demonstrated that in the Salt Riv-
er valley the orange section Is much
larger and more extensive than was
heretofore thought to exist
Year by year the mountain valleys
and uplands adapted to apples, pears
plums and other fruits are being utiI-
lied, so that the fruit industry con-
tinues 10 increase in Importance.
Ostrich Raising.
The past year has shown a marked
increase in ostrich raising in the terri
tory, there being now considerably over
e'7'a hircs in the Salt river valley. con-
shutting more than so percent of all
the ostriches in the United States. The
birds are plucked every eight months
with an average yield from full grown
birds of one pound of feathers per bird
to each plucking, value in the market
of s25 to the bird. The annual cost of
rIln~irC OSfrici'rs in the salt river val
ley is about SO per bird. The princi-
