JUST 4 FEW THINGS
 ID OCCUPY HIS TIME
How Secretary Weleh of the Board of Trade Managed to Put In One
 Day.

Saturday was busy day for Secre- tary Harry Welch of the board of trade. Much of his time was devoted to literary labors. but he found op- portunity to do about one million oth- CT things which will help to advertise the Salt River Valley. He sent os- trich eggs to Chicago, literature to Los Angeles and letters to various places.
 The ostrich eggs were really not eggs at all, but the shells thereof. They were contributed by the Pan American Ostrich company and sent to Chicago, to form part of the Salt River Valley exhibit at the United States Land and Irrigation exposi tion.
 Letters are being sent out to all California or coast people who have written the board during the last year for information, acquainting them with the opening of the Los Angeles branch.
 Two thousand copies of the boards climate booklet and as many maps of Phoenix and the Salt River Valley were forwarded to the branch. A number of cuts were sent to the Pa cific Homeseeker to illustrate articles which will be run in that publica- ton.
 MT. Welch wrote an article upon the orange industry for the New York Commercial and made a start upon a four-page folder to be distributed among fair visitors. This folder is to contain concise. practical information concerning Phoenix.

Dentists For Horses
With the Aid of Special Instruments
 They Extract and Fill Teeth.

In every large city there are now dentists who devote their entire at tention to horses. They are of course provided with special Instruments for the extracting and filling of the teeth of animals needing attention.
 One of the instruments, called a speculum, presents the appearance of an ivory handle and four small bars of nickel, working on a ratchet and crossing one another in such a man. ner as to form a hollow square that can be made large or small ry the turning of a screw.
 Setting this device to the proper size, the horse dentist will slip it gently into the suffering animal s mouth, which during the operation is kept partly open by a groom. When the instrument is fitted upon, "ay one of the back teeth, the beasts mouth is kept open as wide as possible.
 The groom now takes held of the handle of the speculum with one hand and of the horses tongue with the other. says Harper's Weekly, enabling the dentist to obtain a good view of the damaged mOlar. It may be that

TEMPORARY STREET SIGNS
 DURING THE BIG FAIR
Board of Trade Doesn't Want Wis tors to Get Lost While
 in Phoenix.

In order that visitors to the fair may readily find their way about the city, the board of trade will ask the council 10 nave printed cardboard signs placed at every street corner
 This idea originated in the mind of Secretary Harry Welch, who has talked over the matter with a num- Der of citizens. All of whom he has preached the subject approve heart ily of the plan and have expressed a hope that the councif will take favorable action.
 MT Welch estimates that it will not cost over five cents apiece to have the signs printed and that one man could tack them up in a day. The total cost of printing and plac- ing should not be over five dollars, he says.
 In former years fair visitors have complained of the absence of street signs by which they can find their way about Where there are cement sidewalks one can sometimes find his way about by hunting around the curbing but where concrete has not yet been laid the streets are not marked at all.

Mistake of Scientists

Sir Humpry Davy's 1ogmatic pro nOuncement against gas lighting is not the only instance of a clever scientist being hopelessly wrong. The early his tory of submarine cabling furnishes two striking examples. Consulted on the scientific side of the project, Fara- day asserted that the first cables were made too small. Then he said that the larger the wire the more electricity would be required to O-charge it'; and in this quite wrong opinion he was sup ported by other eminent electricians. As a result of this dictum the current was increased until the operation liter ally "electrocuted' the wire and the cable broke down. It was Lord Kelvin who by sending messages through heavy cables with incredibly weak eIectEie currents proved that Faraday

was mistaken.

Sir G. B. Airy submitted the project to mathematics and arrived at the con clusion that a cable could not be sub merged to the necessary depth, and that if it could no recognizable signal could ever travel from Ireland to Nova Scotia. In aviation Professor Nem- comb, one of the cleverst mathemati- clans America has produced, who died last year, declared that he had mathe- matically investigated all the condi- tiOns operating against the heavier than air machine and was convinced that the aeroplane would never be more than a scientific toy; and the possibility of an aeroplane motor being reliable in the reduced atmosphere pressure above 5000 feet was ty sever al experts said to be out of the ques- tion a few months ago DrexeIs car burter was certainly a bit cratic above the clouds last week, but he rose to an altitude of 6,750 feet-London Daily News -s.r---

 Ever made by the Hand above A woman's heart and womans life, And woman's wonderful love? Do you know you have asked for this
 priceless thing As a child might ask for a toy, Demanding what others have died to win, With the reckless dash of a boy? You have written my lesson of duty out, Man-like you have questioned me Now stand at the bar of my womans Until I shall question thee. You require your mutton shall always be hot,
 Your socks and your shirts shall be whole; I require your heart to be true as Gods stars 1 And pure as heaven your soul. You require a cook for your mutton and beef; require a far better thing; A seamstress you're wanting for stock ings and shirts I look for a man and a king A king for a beautiful realm called home, And a man that the Maker, God, Shall look upon as he did the first, And say, Tt is very good" am fair and young. but the rose will

 All things that a man should be; If you give this all. would stake my

MOANA SPRINGS TRAINING
CAMP, Reno, New, June 25.-The
outdoor ring back of Jeffries' cot
tage was fitted with it's pad and
ring paraphernalia today, ready for
the undefeated one to do little
real work with his sparring part
ners. The pad arrived via automo-
bile from Rowardennan early to-
day. The trip was made in Jeffries'
new car. The drivers had a rough
trip over the mountains. Part of
the run was made with a broken
steering gear and Ted Boyer and
Crauffeur Murray had several mar
row escapes from serious accidents.
Jeffries was pleased when the car
arrived. He was glad to get the pad
for the ring and he was still more
glad to see that the big machine
successfully stood the rocky noun
tain climbing test to which it had
bene subjected.

Nordyke Was
the Star

Nordyke starred in the fifth
straight game for the Indians at
Seattle yesterday. The first sacker
did piece of work that would nave
gone all over the country if it had
happened in the big leagues. He
got home run, double and a
single in four times up and &C.
copied II chances at first without
an error. incidentally he scored
twice, exactly as often as the entire
Seattle bunch was able to put any
Il on the board.
fom the statistics the game
looks like one of the select affairs
of the season, the fact that the
Indians won it in an unbrOken
string of victories making it ex-
tremely SO from where the Spokane
fans sit. With a total of IA hits
and only two strikeouts to the
pitchers, there was plenty Of clout-
ing and classy fielding. But for
the latter Nordyke would have bat
ted 1000 in the game, for Akin rob-
bed him of one that looked like

co,N;e, came through with his daily
score, and Weed annexed the other,
with two marks in the hit column
to his credit. Baker was up for
the Indians against Hendricks.

Johnson expects to devote much

Much of the time the champion
spends in the outdoor boxing pavil-

probably better than any Of his crit

close quarters fight, and he is go

battle. Accordingly, probably the

voted to perfecting himself in in
