MADE A BETTER BUY
THAN HE REALIZED

NEW YORK, July 5. - One OF
the early Dutch governors of New
York was honored this week by
having statue erected TO his
memory for what he probably con-
sidered at the time as -one OF the
least important acts of his official
career. The name of this worthy
colonial ruler was Jacob Leisler, and
the act that led to his immortaliza-
ton in bronze was the purchase in
1888 of 6,0O0 acres OF land on the
site OF the present city OF New
Rochelle, the most famous OF New
York's suburbs which popular
comedian has made known every
where as. "forty-five minutes from
Broadway" The land was pur-
chased to provide homes for a colony
of Huguenot refugees from La
Rochelle, France, who promptly
named their new home after the
one that they had left behind in the
old world As an illustration OF the
advance in realty values since the
colonial period it is interesting to
note that the price paid .or the land
was $500 and "one fat calf an
uually to be presented to the
descendants of the original owner
every twenty-fourth of June. Its
present worth, without including the
lat cali. is probably S2O0,0O0,00O.

SPORTSMEN WILL
HUNT FOR THE
BIG BEAR
Noted Hunters to Go On
The Trail in Copper
Creek Section.
(From Tuesdays Daily.)

Ed. Block yesterday confirmed re-
ports in circulation that big CHINA
mon bear was running at large in
the Little Copper Creek region to
the south of this city about ten
miles distant, stating that he noticed
the animal last week entering a
canyon three-quarters of a mile
northeast OF his Billy Boy mining
camp. c. J. McNulty also of the
same section, reiterates what others
have stated that the bear is running
over that region, and has been for
the past month.
Mr.. Block leaves tomorrow TO take
the trail of Mr.. Bruin, and believes
he knows where he is located. Other
local bear hunters are preparing TO
go into that locality, and brace of
dogs is to be brought from Big Bug
in a few days to be used in taking
the trail. Frank Cox, attorney Of
the Southern Pacific railroad, resid-
ing in Phoenix, is to be informed to-
day of the invasion OF this animal in
this section, and is expected to take
the first train out of that city for
Prescott. Colonel Cox, has record
of killing a bear every Summer for
the last FIVE years in Coconino
county. Last year he had thrilling
encounter with a cinnamon on the
Mogollons, man and beast getting
within twenty-five feet of each other
before the fight ended when bullet
entered the heart of the animal, and
he fell dead within few PAGES OF
this unerring marksman.

and mingle with his many friends
for few days.
Mr. Shaw, continuing about the
justice OF his desire to have the in
ternal revenue office located in Ari-
IONA, said: Seventy per cent of the
internal revenue collected by this
office is gathered in this state This
is shown by the report OF the pres
ent collector, who resides in Santa
Fe, n. NJ Thus it will be seen that
less than one-third OF the internal
revenue in this district comes from
the state which now holds the office.
This office has been held in New
Mexico because it was more con-
venient for Republicans who have
filed the office and who were al
ways named from New Mexico
THE last Democrat to hold this
Office was Hon. Charles NJ. Shannon
and he attempted to have the office
transferred to Arizona but at that
time the collections here were not so
heavy and predominating as now"
Mr.. Shaw has a large acquaint-
anceship and friendship in Arizona,
as for many years he was on the
road as a commercial traveller, first
selling groceries and later repre-
senting a Los Angeles cigar factory,
in which he was an owner. Two
years ago he returned to Arizona,
where he has resided for Is years,
and now he is the proprietor of a
cigar and tobacco store in Phoenix.
He was elected at the primary cleo
ton last year as the Maricopa coun-
ty delegate to the national Demo
cratic convention in Baltimore and,
being from Missouri, was the last
Arizona delegate to abandon his al
legiance to Champ Clark, who won
the votes from Arizona by a pri-
mary vote of 10 to l against Wood
row Wilson.
Shaw returned to Arizona full OF
enthusiasm for Mr.. Wilson, the
Democratic presidential candidate,
and worked determinedly and loyal
ly throughout the campaign. He
was chairman of the National Fin
ance committee and aided in raising
a substantial sum in this state, which
was forwarded to Mr.. McAdoo, who
was acting chairman during the most
strenuous part of the campaign last
year.
Lon Hall, of Yavapai county, is
the only Arizona opponent of Shaw
for the internal revenue collector

are one or two applicants from New

GETTING READY
TO SIGN ROADS
Of MOHAVE
(From Tuesdays Daily.)

Judge Krook and Ray Wheelock
have prepared specifications for the
signing OF the highways along the
proposed route of the Santa Fee
Grand Canyon-Needles National
highway, and are having the sign
boards put in shape for the painter.
These signs will be made of press
ed tin and steel and are to be
stenciled with the sign recently
adopted by the organization. The
direction sign will contain the colors
of the D. A. r. and are to have the
emblem OF the Old Trails Roads
thereon. Samples OF the signboards
are the handsomest to be found IN
the United States and when all the
roads are signed up it will be a
credit to the projectors OF the move
ment. The committee consisting Of
Judge Kxook and Ray Wheelock, did
their work well and the people owe
them a vote OF thanks, if nothing
more substantial, for the good work
done.
The gentlemen are also arranging
for the bringing in of heavy pipe
that are to form the standards for
the signs, and these are to be painted
and opened at the bottom to form
an anchor in the ground. The cree
ton of the signs will be quite a job
and it IS to be hoped that our people
will get together and form a sign
party to complete the work. Every
automobile owner should present the
committee with at least one days
use OF his machine and the public
should give of their labor to plant
the posts.-Mohave Miner.

templates remaining in the State in

The visitor Is 4 practical engineer
in his specific line OF work and has
inaugurated road building on a

He stated yesterday that his duties
are not to be confined to a certain
section, but that they will range 10
any adjoining county within the
jurisdiction of the general govern
ment, and where funds are applicable
for road building 1t is probable
he will have the disposition Of
funds to be derived from Apache
county, in building certain highways
that are to be connected with the
Federal routes. This Is the first
instance recorded Of the arrival of
a Federal engineer into the State for
a specified line OF road building,

the government to rush the work OF
good road building in Arizona,
especially on the east and west trans

ARRANGED

Jack McMahn concusively demon
strated last Saturday night that he
is far from being in the down and
out class, when he out-generaled
and out-fought Kid Denister in
their six-round bout.
But the ireman's exhibition of
science has brought trouble in its
wake, and there are parties now
here with The ambition OF getting
his pugilis,;c scalp. They have a
man whom they are confident can
take Jack measure in the ring and
have been trying to negotiate a
match wiki the trifiing sum OF $500
as a side bet. If these parties think
that the sum mentioned will scare
out the local boy they are badly
mistaken, for he has a hacker who
is willing to take a chance with that
much coin on the proposition that
the Mile High fighter cannot be
whipped by anyone Of his weight.

YOUNG MAN WHO CON-
CEIVED IDEA OF EQUALITY

Eleven months ago, young man
scarcely "a years of age, conceived
the idea that women, as we'll as
men, should have representation in
Moose Circles. That his idea wa:
planted in a fertile brain is happily
evidenced in the present membership
of the "Woman's Loyal Moose
Circle" which shows a total of 20
40 and all in good standing.
Ernest NJ. Oswald, of Anderson
Indiana, was the lad who conceived
the plan, thought out each little de-
tail and placed the organization on
its present firm financial basis. Mr.
Oswald is not only the Supreme Or
ganizer but also the Supreme Secre-
tary and has affairs in such shape
as to insure as least 200 Circles by
the time of the big convention to be
held in Cincinnati, the week OF July
18th.
Not only is Mr.. Oswald an enthusi-
astic Moose at such d young age
but he is also an Elk, a United
States Commercial Traveller, York
and Scottish Rite Mason and a
Shriner. That he has planned &c
make the wv. L. NJ. c." the largest
woman organization in the country
is again evidenced in the scope OF
organization work, including every
state in the Union, Canada, Alaska
Manila and the Hawaiian Islands.
II is the idea of the Supreme Or
ganizer that wives, mothers, sisters
and daughters Of members OF the
Loyal Order Of Moose and mothers
and sisters OF members OF the Junior
Order OF Moose are eligible TO mem
bership. Such a scope, if the growth
OF the two lodges in mention may
be taken as a criterion, assures of a
resultant membership we'll up in the
hundreds OF thousands.
Under the plan of organization
perfected by Mr.. Oswald, the WON
ans Moose Circle" has been oper-
ated without per capita tax upon IL
membership. Rather an unique stu
alton inasmuch as there is no other
fraternal organization in the coun-
try mat operates without an annua,
or senli-annual per capita tax.
In some cities the w. L. NJ. c. is
being operated as beneficial or
ganization while in others it is mere
ly a social proposition, yet, in al
cities, each individual Circle works
diligently in connection with charity
organizations.

CELEBRATION NOW
PLEASANT STORY
(From Sundays Daily.)

Frontier Day is now nothing but
pleasant memory and theme OF
discussion for months yet to come.
That il was a success is beyond dis
pute or cavil and that it will be re-
peated, and will be bigger and bet
ter than the initial, but successful
effort, is already a settled fact.
Considering that it was an inspira-
ton Of but a short time since, those
who did yoeman service in prepar-
ing for the event, are entitled to
great and unstinted praise for their
efforts which resulted in two days
OF as good and as unique entertain
ment as could be expected to be
provided by city many times the
size OF Prescott.
The celebration has taught the
local amusement purveyors, the
Chamber OF Commerce, a valuable
lesson and one that will be OF ad-
vantage in the future, and that is,
that no matter what the distance
from other centers of population in
the state, the people will come here,
If the offering is high-class and
worth their time and money.
The last day was an Improvement
upon the first in many respects. The
nervousness apparent in both offici-
ais and participants was noticeably
lacking and the various and varied
events were pulled off in better
shape, and the public at the track
given a better run for its money.
Saturday was "a day of continuous
thrills from the time the pistol shots
sent the motorcycles and autome-
biles on their death-defying, time
breaking journies around the Loop,
until the band played its last air
early this morning and the dancers
with reluctance abandoned the pleas
ures of the dance which they had
been enjoying on the moonlight plat
form on the plaza. 1t was with sin
cere regret that the pleasure seekers.
one and all, forswore their allegi-
ance to King Fun and wendell home
their weary but happy way. Ii was
not the dance alone that furnished
pleasure and caused the night TO pass
away all too quickly. Earlier there
has been a battle on the green
sward OF the plaza, the ammunition
being confetti, powerful and effective,
where warfare in the name "of
good time" is being waged. Others
found enjoyment in witnessing the
more strenuous fight at the rooms Of
the Prescott Athletic Club where
several good mills were pulled Off
In the afternoon another large and
enthusiastic crowd witnessed the
frontier sports and cheered the fear
less riders in their feats OF daring
and skill These sports were the
main feature OF the celebration and
from an entertainment standpoint
were responsible more than any
other one thing for the success OF
the celebration. True the bronchos
and wild horses were not as vicious
as some would ike to have seen
them. but that was not the fault OF
the riders. The latter were compe-
tent, even i the animals lacked il
ginger, and did the best they could
under the circumstances. But there
were plenty OF other events TO make
up for any lack in the respect noted,
and everyone was satisfied that they
had received Gospel measure in the
matter Of amusement.
