LOWER RATES GO
 GO INTO EFFECT
Order Affecting Express Companies Reduces Number of Rates From
 100000 to o,ooo.

WASHINGTON, D. O., Aug. 23.- Every man can now find out any ex- press rate for himself with the aid of the remarkable rate tables which the Interstate Commerce Commission has recently compiled. This valua- b1e document has been printed as a government publication and anyone who patronizes the express companies to any extent should have one in his possession. 1t is on sale at cost by the Superintendent of Docum entS, Washington, D. c.
 Until the government compilation was made there were some 900, ,000,- 900 separate rates published by the express companies in hundreds of books and pamphlets. It was ab- solutely impossible for any ordinary shipper to calculate a rate for him. self. It was next to impossible for even the agents of the express com paniesto do so correctly and as a re- suit complaints of overchargeS and undercharges (mostly overcharges) were field with the commission by the tens of thousands.
 In fact, the wholesale manner in which the public was being over charged by express agents who could not calculate the correct rates from the bewildering libraries of rate pub- lications, was one of the most signif- cant facts brought out by the recent investigation of the express business by the United States.
 The government statisticians have now reduced these 0,000,000 rates to less than 650,0OO. This has been done by dividing the country into ter ritorial blocks. By means of rate tables which are made up of key mum bers any person can find in five min uteS the exact express rate on a pack age of any size between any two points in the United States.
 The new rates to which these ta bles relate will go into effect Octo- Der 23. They offer to the consumer the first real relief ever given from the extortionate exactionS of the eX- press companies, who, having mono polized a field that ought rightfully to be filled by the. railroads and the postoffice, have been able to take from commerce vast fortunes for the few individuals who own most of the express stock.
 Many of the cuts are drastic. 9th CTS are left at about their present level In some instances express rates will be raised by the new order But the whole system of rates has been worked out in a scientific way and with an eye single to the inter ests of the people. .
 It may take the country some months of experience to find out the advantages and disadvantages of the

MAN CHOSEN EQUALS TASK.
Captain Greenway Is Highly CompIi mented By Press; Realization of Extent and Difficulties of
 Work

The Phoenix Republican has the following to say of the recent appoint ment of Captain John C. Greenway to the advisory committee of the mines and metallurgy department of the Panama-Pacific exposition.
 l. is with great pleasure we receive the word that Captain John c. Green way has been appointed as a mem Der of the advisory committee of the department of mines and metallurgy of the Panama-Pacific International Exposition to be held in San Fran cisco in 1915
 Captain Greenway has an important work before him but no better choice could be, made The selection is everything that could be desired from a mining and every other standpoint He is universally liked, is at the head of large interests and sways an i'm portant influence in the mining world
 However, he has a hard task be- fore him: Mining is an exacting busi- ness and requires close attention and it will be difficult to divert the man. agements from the undertakings they have in hand. Another difficulty will be in deciding what forms the exhibits should take. Of course every one has plans, drawings and photos of everything on the surface and under ground. Then there are the models of stamp mills concentrating and cyanide plants and smelters. Then follow models of the interior work ings of the mines made of glass, wood, strips and other materials. We could make a magnificent, attractive ex- hibit of the ores produced in the state. The exhibit of the ores ex- tracted from the Copper Queen mine would be a sight in themselves. For the azurite, malachites, stalagmites and stalactites from this mine has produced more of these specimens than probably any other mine in the

world. Then there is the c. & A., Shattuck and other properties that produce beautiful ores, there are the magma ores at Superior, gold ores from the Monte Cristo, Yavapai. However, no doubt, Captain Green way has a plan of his own to insure a successful and creditable showing for the state. He is resourceful and capable so there need not be any fear or doubt with the matter in his hands Review.

SON FINDS FATHER
 IN ARKANSAS WOODS
Wealthy Illinoisan Who Disappeared From Home Under Mysterious
 Circumstances Is LO- cated.

Hardy, July 25.-Charles Green An derson, wealthy and prominent business man of Carrier Mills, Ill., was found ill the woods near here on Thursday by his son, Raymond An derson, and H. N. Finney, a Harris burg, Qll) lawyer, after search of the country had failed to find the man. Anderson disappeared myster- iously from his home July 10. He had left home to make collections and when last seen in illinois had $7OO on his person. For time foul play was feared by his relatives and the streams in the vicinity of his home were dragged in an effort to locate his body.
 Anderson arrived in Hardy on July Is and claimed to be a travelling salesman for a harness and hard ware company of Cincinnati. He took up a homestead a few miles east of town and acted perfectly rational and no one knew that he was demented. He met many Hardy people and talk ed to them and they were surprised when his son and the lawyer arrived looking for the man.
 The son claimed that he had recciv- ed letter from his father in which he stated that he was down in the Arkansas woods, where someone told him his name was Charlie Green. That was the name Anderson used here. The young man stated that his father in the letter also asked wheth- CT his name was Anderson. Getting this clue to the mans whereabouts through the letter the lllinoisans hur- ried here and found Anderson, who said he was perfectly willing to re- turn to his home with his son and lawyer. None of the mans money was missing, but he could not tell how he came to be in Arkansas or when he arrived. His mind is a com plete blank as to how or why he left his home and travelled to this place.

WHAT TO DO WHEN
 BITTEN BY DOG
COUNTY HEALTH OFFICER RE- GENES INSTRUCTIONS FROM
 STATE BOARD OF HEALTH.
Always Kill Dog That is HI After it Has Bitten Person and Have
 It's Head Examined.

During these hot dog days when so many of the animals go mad, everyone is interested in knowing what to do ill case they are bitten by a dog. The State Board of Health has sent Coun- ty Health Officer w. II. Blankenship copy of instructions to the public which is printed in full below:
 When an animol suspected of hav- ing rabies has bitten human being the person so bitten or his legal rep resentative shall secure or cause to be out injury if possible. The animal shall be confined ill a safe, quiet place, roomy and comfortable place and report giving full particulars concerning the action taken sent to the State Health officer. This report shall include the name of the locality in which the biting occurred, the date the bite was inflicted, the name, resi- dence and address of the owner of the animal; the full name or names of the person or persons bitten, together with their residence, age, sex, race and information as to the location ana extent of their wounds; the names, addresses and residences of all own CTS of dogs which have been bitten by the animal in question, together with a list and description of the ami mals bitten and the dispositions made of the same. Such supposedly rabid animal must be kept under careful ob- rabid evidence will manifest itself if rabid evidence will manifest itself and death will shortly ensue.
 When such suspected animal dies, the head and several inches of the neck must be cut off and sent to the neares tHygienic Laboratory of the State Board of Health for microscopic examination. Care must be taken not to injure the brain or the spinal cord
 Unless the animal is plainly ill it should not be killed immediately after biting it's victim. It should be held un- der observation for ten days. If the ami mai remains we'll during this time it is absolutely certain that it is not suffer- ing from rabies. Do not kill the ani- mal by blow or shot in the head. This often destroys the brain so com pletely that examination is impossible. The head only of the animal should be sent to the laboratory. This must be packed in ice and sawdust in water tight container and shipped to the laboratory with all express charges prepaid.
 All indiient persons bitten by an animal suspected of having rabies or declared upon microscopical examina- tion to have been so infected, should, with the advice of the state health of- ficer have the Pasteur treatment ad- ministered for the prevention of hy- drophobia in the human.
 (For further information concern ing the Pasteur treatment, wire or write the state health officer).
 If it shall appear to the state health officer that the life and the health of the settlement, village, town or city is
