J. c. Potts and J. $. Withers, super visors, accompanied by Thomas De- vine, County Treasurer, and James Parker, assistant State Engineer, made trip over the new road from Yucca to Topock, last Monday. The trip was made successfully in Jesse Tarr's big car. The gentlemen found the road in far better condition than they expected, and the new work is proceeding rapidly. About ten miles of the west end of the road is to be graveled, a large part of the work having already been done. The gentlemen also took look at the road approaching the bridge from the west and expect to have the eastern con- nection completed to the California line before San Bernardino county gets there. With some additional money this piece of road could be made a splendid highway and the board intends to supply the funds if necessary

Herbert G. Schader Dead.

Herbert G. Schader died at the home of hls mother in Hot Springs, Ark, last week Wednesday, after an illness of only few months. He left here about two weeks ago and only lived ten days after reaching home. Herb. Schader was one of the well known characters of the desert, hay ing followed mining and engineering many years. He was elected Surveyor of this county at the last county elec- tion and held the office at the time of his death. He was member Of the Los Angeles lodge of Masons and a member of Oklahoma City lodge oi Elks.
 About a year ago he was shot in the mouth by man at Oatman in dis pute over mining claim, and it was probably the shock that broke down his system and brought on the com plaint from which he died, the great white plague. He had many warm friends both in Arizona and California that will regret his death.

Eli Puntenney, one of the oldest resi- dents of Northern Arizona, died last week at Needles Many of the old timers of this section will remember MT. Puntenney during the time that the old Atlantic & Pacific railroad was being built through the northern tier of Arizona counties. He had many contracts for supplies along the railroad of money. In later years he ran a small place on the banks of the Colo, rado river at Needles. He was fine old fellow and all old timers will re- gret his death. His body was taken to Prescott for burial.

Railroad Wreck

Thi, morning about two o'clocl: a broken fange on a car in west bound freight train, two miles east of Drake, caused the wrecking of twelve cars and the death of J. B. Bonnell, a brake man. The train was running at the usual rate of speed and the engineer and the rear end trainmen hardly noticed that a wreck had occurred in the train until the engineer found the air on, and believing that train hose had parted stopped his engine and went back to see. He found twelve cars piled up in great mass of wreckage and near the second car from the en zine he found Brakeman Bonnel ter ribly injured. Bonnell told him that he was going to die, but everything possible was done to alleviate his sui fering. He died about a half hour after being found. Deceased had a wife at Needles, where his body was taken.
 Coroner Smith was called and helG an inquest at the scene of the wreck Owing to the condition of the wreck the track will not be cleared unti afternoon.

Northern Arizona Fair.

Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, Oct 29, are the dates just fixed upon by the Northern Arizona Fair Association, for the first annual eXhl- horticultural and other resources of Apache, Maya 10. Coconino, Mohave and Yavapai counties. That the As sociation will be strongly supported financially is evident from hardy pledges of assistance from the boards of supervisors of the counties named. As is fitting, Yavapai is the first sub- scriber. the amount being l5OO5, the full amount made appropriable by the recent extra session ot the State Legis. lature. Part of this subscription is to be used by the Verde Valley fair con- mission, to collect an exhaustive range of fruit and agricultural entries to be shown both at Camp Verde and at | Prescott.
 Harness and saddle races, auto mobile and motorcycle events and a finished program of western sports will constitute the principal attrac- tions at the race track, where the ex- hibits will be displayed.
 Tom Mix, champion steer bull dog ger of the United States and one of it's best fancy riders and ropers, has full charge of the program and his esti- mates indicate that at least 2500S in prizes will be offered.
 Premium lists and other advertising matter will be on the road to all parts of Northern Arizona within a week. It is estimated that the budgets of the various committees will call for an eX- penditure of over l0,000S. If the enterprise succeeds as well as the strong interest manifested in all parts of the North premises, the Association will make extensive expenditures for buildings and 3 new one mile track in 1914.
 Farmers, orchardlsts, stock and poultry raisers and mining men who have something to show that is unique in their lines should embrace this op- portunity for the upbuilding of North ern Arizona. Communications ad. dressed to the Secretary of the North. ern Arizona Fair Association, Pres colt. will receive prompt and careful attention.

Adenoids are a Menace to ChiIdre n

Babies and young children must be carefully watched for the growth Of adenoids, which spoil the mental and physical life of child. They usually result from succession of colds and throat irritations. and their presence is so productive of harm, that many school boards have an examining physician to detect them. The con- ditions that cause them may be easily avoided by careful parents. Quickly and thoroughly cure all colds and throat lrritations by the use Of Foley's Honey and Tar Compound, and ade- holds will not develop. H. H. Wat kins, Druggist.

Judge Carl G. Krook, Ray P. Wheelock and Hubert Smith spent several days the first of the week set ting signs along the National Old Trails road east of Kingman. Owing to the soft condition of the road east of Crozier they were held up more than day and had to return without putting up the signs from that point to the county line. Another trip will soon be made to place these signs. The work done by these gentlemen is gratuitous and they merit the thanks of the people.

CHECKER-POOL MEETS

ing with great favor among the young
sters of the i. NJ. c. \. boys depart

board. with thirty checkers bunched- in
the circle at the center Of the board.
Half Of these checkers are red and
half are white, the two colors rep
resenting the opposing sides Surround
ing the circle a square is ruled off, Two
adjoining sides of this square belong to
each Of the two boys playing. The cue
ball is an extra large checker; the Gu,
itself is of the regulation pattern, about
three feet long.
The game is won by the player who
corner pockets first. and the chief OBJ
stacle to the speedy accomplishment Of
this result is the scratch rules, which
are the same as in straight pool. When
a player scratches he has to put a check

forms his half of the surrounding
square. From such an advantageous po-
