Romantic Story OF Min.
ing in Arizona
Chittenden Develops Aban-
doned Group Into Pro
ducing Mine

Mining is a romantic Business,
and in the history of Arizona min
ing there are few more interest,"
ing stories than how George B.
Chittenden, after losing one for
tune, returned to the Christmas
District, took over some claims
that had been abandoned and de-
veloped what is today one of the
most promising producing mines
in the state.
Chittenden was the original
promoter of the famous Christ
mas property, which will soon
be a big producer Of. copper ore.
In the panic Of 1907, however,
Chittenden lost everything that
ne had. He had already been
eliminated from the Christmas
| management and when the slump
In copper came he lost the inter
est in that property that he re-
tanned.
About all that he saved out OF
! the wreck was an interest in the
old Snider group, near Christmas.
He might not have saved that
had there been anyone who want
ed it, but no one thought that
the claims had any particular
value They had produced some
ore and it was known that there
was some rich ore left, but i
was not believed that there was
enough to pay for it's extraction

Luther of the Queen Anne High
school today frowned on all
Queen Anne girls and sent them
home to change their stockings
And the boys who showed loud

shoes were ordered to adorn their
ankles with more subdued hues.

more delicate with them. In
some cases skirts Tapped the tops
of rainy weather boots, and what
could a male principal do? He
guessed, made no exceptions to
plain white, but made the order
general, and all the girls went to
their dressing-rooms or their
homes to make the change. After
the assembly there was a lecture

What Teddey Thinks

I'm twice as great as Washington,
I'm twice as great as Grant,
Because third terms they did't get
They needn't think Ican't.
I'm twice as great as Jefferson
And Madison combind
I'm twice as great as all the lot
Of presidents, | find.
I'm greater than my country
And it's coustoms and Its laws,
It's poor old constitution
And it's presidential flaws.
Pm twice as great as any man
Above or meath the sod
In fact I'm half inclined to think
I'm twice as great as God.

Halloween of The Japanese
Children

The japanese at this time Of
year have a sort of Halloween
of their own. When the autumn
leaves begin to drop off the trees,
the children are told that witches
are throwing them down; and
there is one particular night
when a sort Of congress of demons
ass mbles and it is imprudent to
venture abroad, lest mischief be-
fall.
The worst of all the witches in
the Mikad's realm is Hannyan.
She is a kind of witch-godess,
and is supposed to be the arch.
Representative of feminin envy
and jealousy. Sometimes, in Jap
anese art, she appears holding in
her hand the head Of amurdered
infant, ana grinning over the ac-
complishment of the dreadful
deed.
Hatred and treachery, in Japan,
ind their favorite symbol in the
serpant, there amuses the char
acter Of a demon. Its silent ana
stealthy mode of getting about,
coupled with its poisonous CHAR
acter, may perhaps justify the
choice of this reptile as the
emblem of malice. But there are
in that country other types OF
finds ana gobins with which we
are not acquainted. For example,
there are. goblin cats, and even
goblin rats, which it is most un-
safe to encounter after nightfall,
AS in our own land the super
matured creatures of Nippon do
not venture abroad customaIily
in the day time, the nocturnal
hours being more appropriate for
4 the exercise of their alarming ac-
tivities.
Decidedly Of d Halloween
character is a story Of a poor
woodcuJter and his wife. who
dwelt on the edge of q forest un-
der the shadow Of the Honorable
Notwithstanding Fujiyama.
They were childless, and the
woman besougt the mountain
for baby. That night there ap
peared on the mountain side Z
strange light, which seemed t.
, hover over and finally rest upor
a branch of a ia bamboo.
The woodcutter fastened to Sc,
what it was and found a moor

the bamboo branch.

is the moon lady,
The Woodcutter took the little
princess to his wife, and she
lived with them until she grew
up. The emperor's son, meeting
her by accident in the forest, fell
inlove with her, and she loved him;
but she told him that she could
not marry him, because her life
on the earth was limited to twen-
ty years. In vain her princely
sweetheart besought the gods.
When the appointed day arrived
her mother the, moon Lady,
caught her up in a silver moon
beam and carried her off.
All the way to the moon the
little princess wept silvery tears,
which, as they fell, took wings
and foated away, looking for her
beloved, who could see her no
more. But the silvery bright
tears are seen to this day floating
about the Wales and marses Of
Nippon. Children chase them with
happy cries and say, See the
fire-fiesH'
Then their mothers relate to
them the legend and say: Those
are the tears of the little moon
princess, fitting to seek her be-
loved. "
