(From Sundays Daily.)

After three days struggle against the elements and one day of fierce battle against flooded arroyos be- tween here and Phoenix, the Ohio "Mud-hen" waded into bright sun. shine at Prescott yesterday after. noon bearing MT. and Mrs. Thomas D. Wilby and Fred D. Clark, driver, fifty-nine days out from New York City, via San Francisco and San Diego.
 MT. Wilby is special agent of the Office of Public Roads, Washington, D. C., and is now "logging'' a route from the California coast to New York City, having just completed a "log" from Gotham to San Fran cisco by the middle west route
 He is furnishing reports and photo graphs to Washington, showing not only the condition of roads, but communicating to headquarters the status of good roads movements in each state.
 A further object of the tour is to assist in bringing about the early construction of a transeontinental highway from Los Angeles to Kansas City, via Yuma, Phoenix, Prescott, Flagstaff, HolbroOk, Adamana, thence over the Arizona border to Gallup, Albuquerque and Santa Fe, New Mex leo; therefrom, over the Raton Pass, following the old Santa Fe trail through to Kansas City.

Prescott is yet the best place alter all," so says Dick Muhsfeldt, who has followed the example of the proverbial eat and is moreover nigh ty glad to get back.
 For six years Dick held high office at the Yavapai Club and was ever on hand to come to the reseuer of those facing death by thirst in this noun tain city of clear water and other means of palatial refreshment.
 Last summer Dick devoted the beautiful evenings and baln1y days to the perusal of glowing, highly eolor"d pamphlets describing the wonderful possibilities of Honduras His ambi- tious disposition was the cause of his undoing and on the 21st of August he bade his fearful friends good bye and started for Honduras with the strict intention cf saving the natives of that central country from dying of thirst by opening a first class  brewery. The brewery proposition proved to be nothing but a foamy dream and the Yavapai thirst de- stroyer became foreman over a gang of S4 native workmen who were in- stalling a power line through the jungle of San Pedro Sulta, Spanish Honduras, which if judged by the tales of the returned wandercr is quite as bad as it sounds.
 While foreman of the construction gang he thoughtlessly requested one of the laborers to quit soldering and go to work. An ungentlemanly re- quest of that sort was an offense too horrible to pass unnotieed and the in- suited black responded by lunging at the energetic foreman with a nice sharp meat cutter, commonly referred to in story books as a machette. Dick lodged the maehette and started in to show the would-be assassin how the German soldiers turned the trick in

VALUABLE GEMS
 LOST OUT OF STOCKING

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Oct. 26.- A ehamois bag, containing $35OO in gems and $500 in currency was Zig gled out of her stocking while she rode through Golden Gate Park in a taxi,' the police was told by Mrs. W. G. Logan of New York The lost jewels included a twelve-stone dia- mond brooch and a twenty-six-ston diamond bracelet. The greenbacks were of large denominations.
 The police are searching, but they venture the opinion that Mrs. Logan is mistaken and did not put the bag in her stocking at all, but mislaid it. It is almost impossible, they say, to jiggle or jolt things out of a stocking unless the garter gives way.

FINE WEATHER IS ASSURED FOR
 FAIR WEEK

Special to the Journal-Miner).
 PHOENIX, Ariz., Oct. 3O.-Advices received from many points in Ari- zona indicate that the attendance at this years fair will exceed by far that of any previous year. Special trains will be run from nearly every town of prominence in Arizona and Ocean Park, San Diego, Los Angeles and San Francisco on the coast. To entertain the visitors elaborate pre- parations have been made by the fair commissioners. The daily program at the fair grounds will run from g o'clock in the morning to o'clock in the afternoon and then there will be night shows in town. Every depart ment has hundreds of new exhibits and for the racing card already over 200 horses are at the track The Board of Trade has arranged to supply visitors with accommodations and with the Hotel Adams open there will be ample room. The rain storms of the past three days which ended to- night assures fine weather fair week and has completely done away with the usual dust nuisance.

HONDURASBREWERY
 IS FOAMY DREAM
Dick MuhSfeldt Returns From Central America the Hero of Machette Duel
 With Bloodthirsty Black
(From Tuesday's Daily)

China when he wore the Kaiser's uni form in that grand and blOodless cam paign. Help in the form of about so of the blacks friends came to his assistance and for a few moments the would-be father of a first class Hon. duras brewery was a bad bet. How ever the trouble adjusted itself and Dick was promoted by the eonstrue- tion company to the position of over foreman and the blood thirsty black was immediately made a member of the San Pedro police force. This is a positively true story and Dick has the knife with him to show how ter rible the battle ragged.
 Owing to his industry and energy Dick received the tremendous emolu- ment of 15O pesos per month, which translated into real money means about s75. The company furnished all tools and supplies necessary for constructing the line and Dick fur nished a boarder for one of the na- tive families at the rate of $1O per month; which is not high for berth on the ground of the eOmpany's ware house and rice and beans three times a day.
 Although still living and ambiti- ous, Dick shows that the climate of Honduras is not to be compared with that of Prescott and insists that drawing beer from a keg and wash ing gold from the sands of Granite Creek are the proper methods of earn ing a good living.
 "No sir, Ieh bin no nigger and I stay in Prescott yet and always" This is good sentiment and whenever anyone tells you about the glories of else just remind them that Prescott is the place to live and pros per-and you know tiff you have any doubt it ask the returned would ha hrevar ..

How ever, the governor has strong hope. that the Southwestern Transeontinen tai Highway convention, to be held with delegates from California, New Mexico and Arizona in Phoenix, next month, will effect a better appreeia. tion of the benefits mutually to be desired from such a highway.
 MT. Wilby regrets he was unable to travel the territorial highway to Prescott from the capital, as he con- siders this the most important link in the Arizona transcontinental high way of the future
 MT. Girand is looking after the party by clearing the road north of Prescott to Flagstaff, via Cherry and Camp Verde. The Wilbys were the guests of Tom Norris, president of the Arizona Good Roads association, and Mrs. Norris, during their stay in this city. With A. L. Westgard, MT. Wilby founded the now famous Touring Club of America, in New York in 1909. He has travelled every auto road in Great Britain and on the continent of Europe, where for many years he lived and worked as cores pendent of the New York World and the London Leader.
 The party will leave the Chamber of Commerce offices at 10 this morn ing. They express great hopes for the future of Prescott and say they are especially pleased with the en- thusiasm shown for good roads by MT. Norris, than whom they have yet to see a more active booster.

 Tomorrow, at Forbes field, Pitts burg's baseball park, there will be another demonstration of a coal dust explosion, this time above ground, for the benefit of the general public. The rest of the program includes demon strations of the equipment and work of the rescue ears, manned by expert rescuers, carefully trained in the use of the oxygen helmets and in the various methods of giving first aid to the victims overcome by gas or in- jured by falling rocks or broken tim Der. President Taft will view this part of the interesting program. A grand parade of miners will conclude the demonstration. In view of the fact that during the last ten years thirty thousand miners were killed and seventy-five thousand injured in the mines of the United States the sub ject of preventing mine explosions is of national importance.

They are grudg- ing it yet I did not hear it. The disaster looms ahead, yet I did not see the whole empire was seething and the spirits of our nine deceased emperors were unable to stop the sacrifices of property. All these things are my own fault, but I here by announce to the world that I swear to reform and with the people and soldiers to carry our eonstitu- tion.''
 Several Manehu ministers resigned, and were succeeded by Chinese. The lines around Pekin have been tighten ed but while the higher classes and foreigners fear no trouble others are in a state of nervousness. There is now twenty thousand soldiers at the gates of the city and several places inside bags of sand have been thrown up as Qualifications.
 The effect of the edict, however, has already been good and the city tonight is somewhat more tranquil.

(From Fridays Daily.)

Thomas Shaffroth and H. J. Kinnie arrived in the city yesterday from Humbug creek, near the old Mexican shelter, with over S265 in placer gold, which they washed out in three weeks time. This amount was found in a space of less than ten feet long at a depth of about four feet, in a side gulch from the main creek bed. They will return today and state that the old workings have been cleverly op- erated and they secured only a small sum in flour gold. Both believe that unworked ground will be discovered some day in that section which will yield heavily.
