ance for one of Mrs. Wilson's favorite
charities is to be held, and Mrs. Will
son has promised to attend and sit
in a box. They say in Washington
that the presidents wife will keep
both engagements and that she will
not cut the benefit and that she will
not be late for Jessie's wedding,

On the same day, Nov. 25, a very
important debut will be made in
Washington new beauty that has
been whispered about for months,
but has been kept so thoroughly
away from the eyes of the curious
that nobody knows today just exactly
what she looks like, will burst upon
the town.
All anyone knows is that she has
been most carefully educated and
trained and fed and that she is going
to be a "dazzler" who will take
Washington by storm. 1t is said even
that she will be the principal decora-
ton at the wedding. For the mys-
ferrous debutante is a new flower
which has been developed specially
for the White House nuptials and
which has been already christened
the Jessie Wilson wedding chrysan-

Frank Morrison, secretary of the
American Federation of Labor, at
tending the annual convention at Sc
attic, is the Beau BEummel of organ
lied labor in America.
Morrison comes down to break
fast in morning suit, which is so
nearly like evening clothes that
many who see him so arrayed at s
in the morning jumy to the conclu-
sion that he has been out all night.
Morrison morning suit is of black
broadcIoth, and the Iow-eut vest
shows a friIled shirtfront of finest
linen. The morning suit is correct"
The secretary is credited with be-
ing one of the smoothest politicians
in the declarations. He looks like a
clergyman. He is less popular with
the rank and file in the West than in
the East, because of his supposed re-
dictionary leanings. He is opposed to
industrial unionism."

movement was the result of several conferences of Kingman men and the final intercourse with Needles people should now bs apparent, and the good work they so auspiciously started should now be pushed ahead with ability and determination.
 The people of this county have a great work before them and the year 1913 should see big part of the east and west highway completed. To begin with preliminary survey of the purposed roadway should be made and temporary road built that may be passtbls to motor vehicles and later the road to be built up into per manent highway that will serve every purpose. It matters not to the editor of the Miner where this roadway may be finally built, if it is only made a useful road.

When Burton Holmes recently gave his celebrated travelogue on "Pana. ma" at Orchestra Hall, Chicago, he was seriously interrupted by continual coughing of the audience. Many a good sermon, lecture or concert, is spoiled in the same way. No one an- noys willingly and if people with coughs, colds, hoarseness and tickling in the throat would use Foley's Honey & Tar Compound they could quickly cure their coughs and colds and avoid this annoyance. It is splendid household medicine and contains no opiates. H. H. Watkins Druggist.

Death of James Arthur Thomp-
 son.

After an illness of one short week, James Arthur Thompson, the fifteen year old son of Mir. and Mrs. E. F. Thompson, died last Monday morning of pneumonia.
 Everything that medical skill could devise was done to save the life of the young man, but God willed otherwise. and tonight he rests in the lone couch of his everlasting sleep.
 Arthur Thompson was beloved of all in Kingman, genial, manly, a boy just budding into manhood, the hope of a father and the pride of a loving mother. His death threw the whole town into cloud of gloom and sober ed ur the enthusiasts preparing for the gala day on the morrow. The boy had been born and reared in King man and there was not one that did not feel the sorrow that death in the family would bring. No matter what personal chickering's may come King. man is withal great big family, whose JOYS and grlsfs are felt by all.
 The funeral was held from the Catholic church, the Elks and Moose lodges attending in a body. The little stone edifice was unable to hold one half the people that followed the bier from the late residence to the church and on to the grave. Rev. Fr. Vabro preached most interesting sermon and at the grave invoked the bene- diction and prayed for the repose of tho soul of one of Kingman's loved ones. The floral tributes were many. Handsome pieces from friends and lodges em towering the casket.

It was found soon after and from the examination made by the coroner it was found that the man had been shot to death. A few days ago the details of the killing was ufolded to the sheriff and county attorney and it is probable the mur. d Ter will soon be in the grip of the law.

We are grieved to learn of the sus. pension of the Searchlight Bulletin, one of the best little mining papers published in the state of Nevada, on account of lack of patronage. As a newspaper is the one indication of the prosperity of town we are unable to see how the business men can be so near sighted to allow it to go to the boneyard. Without a newspaper a town is nonentity, no one in the out side world considering it worth while to go there.

.BURROS MAKE COMEDY
 FOR STATE FAIR FOLK

Johnny Stover on his little black burro took and won all the races in which the small little animals ran. and then to give the people good measure had him do a bit of a-bucN- ing contest right in the quarter stretch.
 This was an added feature, which Charles K. Pfshon was swift to as sure the audience was strictly on the program. As a matter of fact, John ny was well spilled by the diminutive Lurro, and the commotion started lot of other bucking among the other contestants.
 Carlos Pacheco won the pony race after a hard fight with a little buck skin. He rode a little snaky black.
 A kid relay race was one of the hest of Pishon's stunts. It went mile and a half with two changes. Toward the end the runner up lost his saddle but recovered it and rode under the wire with the cowhide dangling from his arm.

II WAS 4 HABIT
 OF FRANCISCO C0TES
L. L. Steward Not the First Automo-
 biIist Held Up By Him

The business of holding up auto mobilists appears to have been a habit of Francisco Cota who held up L. L. Steward on Thursday night with ah empty gun and was captured by his victim. Previous to that he had held up James Shea and at the point of a gun had compelled him to drive him to a place near the point where he soon afterward held up Steward.
 It was the intention of COta at first to force Shea to take him to the Esperanza ranch near Glendale where he said he was working. But he changed his mind and dismissed his unwilling chauffeur and lay in W ait for another victim. Shea said that he noticed that COta had been drinking but he said that he did not appear to be so much under the in fuence of liquor as not to know what he was doing
 Gotta was removed yesterday from the city to the county jail and the watch which he had taken from Steward before the latter engaged with him in the struggle for the re- vOlver, was placed in the hands of the sheriff
 The officers are of the opinion that Gotta thought that the revolver was loaded and that when he pulled the trigger after he had inserted the mug gle of the revolver in the mouth of Steward he meant murder

.HARDYS LAST DAY IS
 BEST OF WHOLE WEEK
Expert Shooter Demonstrate Peters Shells for Last Time Before
 Big State Fair Audience.

Minus Barney Oldfield, but not short bit of his skill, Captain Hardy drew cheers from the stands for his work at the State Fair yes terday. The three mile race with the flying target shooting went off just as well with Will CatIin driving the car as when the worlds greatest speedster handled the wheel.
 The bomb act was pulled off twice yesterday, and when the band played and the flags broke out two hun dred and fifty feet in the air every body rose and saluted. Hardy shot an exceptionally good Indian head on the half mile tracks inner fence, and did his usual flying target work.
 Together with his assistant, A H. Brunner, Hardy left for Williams last night to exhibit at the frontier celebration in that city.

HEAVY TYPE MACHINES
 SHOWN ON FAIR GROUNDS
Illustrating Farm Machines and Tools
 of Power and Size

Immediately in the rear of the dairy building at the fair grounds is one of the most interesting exhibits of the machinery departments of the fair It is the exhibit of moving ma Chinery of the larger and more pow erful type, installed and operated for the benefit of the visitors by Kunz Bros. S Messenger and by the Inter national Harvester company. In the former is included all the larger in struments and machines used on the farm, while the latter have on the grounds not quite so extensive an ex- hibit but one fully as interesting.
 Kuntz Bros. & Messinger, who are the local representatives of the Rume- ly machineries, with R. w. Schatz, who is the travelling representative of the same people. on the grounds as demOnstrator are showing everything in the farmers category from the largest tractors to the smallest gas engines. There are two 15-30 oil- pulled tractors, burning crude oil and running about the space allotted to them. The cost of operating these machines is One-tenth of a gallon of oil per horse power per hour, and the oil sells at about six cents. An OLleI lIdcIOT, the OlSIllldte burner 6as-pulled, runs as easily and as cheaply as do the larger oil burners.
 complete showing of Rumely Falkline engines ranging in power from IF to 25 horse power, is shown, some of them in action and others cold. These are considered the ll-around farmers engine, to be used on the farm for general purposes. A al cn the grounds all day, showing how it can bail from thirty to fifty tons or hay daily, and the Rumely feed grinders demonstrate why they are the best and what they can do. Be- sire these there are the cream sep arators, the stationary engines and the Ideal separator fully equipped.
 The RumeIy demonstrator is willing and anxious to demonstrate his ma Chinery to all and any who are suf- ficiently interested and they are all ways glad to have many visitors at their show.

.LAVALEES IN HIGH
 GLASS ACROBAnCS

The Four Lavalees is the title of a quartet of high class aerialistic aero bats, who can be just as funny as they are agile. They have been per forming daily on the inside platform at the state fair.
 They varied their straight stuff yesterday with a sensational balanc- ing feat and several perilous tumb- ling acts. The hay rack is another of their popular acts.
 On the bed of a large hay wagon they place a spring cushion, and on this they do their funny business. The act ends with a jumping contest between Paw and Nav, and Nav al-
 ways wins by a foot or so.

MANY MOUNTED BIRDS
 IN BRENIGER EXHIBIT
Shown at Fair In Connection With
 State Game Warden's Display.

Adjoining the display of animals native to this state in the agricul- turaI building at the fair, is the eX- hibit or birds and animals stuffed and mounted shown by Mrs. T. F. Breniger, of this city. It is in reality a part of the display sent in and ar ranged by Frank w. Rogers, state game warden, in that cit deals with the same subject and lends variety and number to the types that man has gathered for his share of the fair week shows.
 This collection is one of the most exhaustive and complete in the Unit ed States. There are in it some 500 birds and seventy-five animals, most of which are peculiar to this part of the country and the southwest. But there are few of the better specimens of feathered products of the interior of Central and South America, which are much prized among the connoiseurs of mounted birds and animals
 These specimens were all shown in this city at one time not long ago when they were placed in a museum on Washington street for the public eye and where they were much enjoyed and commented on. The mounting was all done by c. w. Breniger, who was a well known bird and animal man and an expert taXidermist in this state some few years prior to his death
 The display will be placed on sale soon after the fair, and it is expect ed that the birds will be snatched up at once for drawing room and den as well as for public use in the sporting and pool houses of the city.

MILITARY WANTS LAW
AGAINST MOB DUTY
Bills to Be Introduced in
Coming Legislature

Atlanta, April 28.-A law to provide
for the change of venue in trial C.
capital cases, where feeling runs So
high there is danger of mob violence
A bill to change the place of execu-
ton when public feeling is at high
tide, and mob violence is feared.
A bill to empower the gocernor u
remove a sheriff from office, when
such official fails to do his entire duty
in the case of riot, mob gatherings,
etc.
These are some of the things that
will be advocated by the military in
the legislature this summer to further
strengthen the law as it stands.
Il want to see the necessity for
calling out the military in times Of
violence, mobs, riots, etc, practically
eliminated" said Major Claude c.
Smith, judge advocate general of the
National Guard of Georgia today in
discussing military affairs, and also
the recent attacks made on the Law
passed last year, giving the governor
full powers as to ealing out troops and
declaring martial law
I'VE are of the people, too" con-
tinued Major Smith, and we have no
love for going out on a duty that may
necessitate the taking of our brothers
lives. 1t is not militarism we are af-
ter, but so getting the laws in the state
that sheriffs and other sworn officials
will be forced to do their plain duty.
Il think some people have a mistak-
en- conception of the national guard.
We are not bloodthirsty, and we do
not want to be placed in an attitude OF
opposing our neighbors and friends |
believe the bills mentioned will go far
towards putting an end to calling out
the military for riot duty, and compel
local officials to do their sworn duty
Adjutant General Nash will ask the
legislature this summer to increase
the appropriation for his department
from $4,000 to $4,000. He says the
money is badly needed by the national
guard.

AMERICAN recognition
Of China HELD UP
-Four Parties in the Field at
Present

Washington, D. c., April 28.-Near-
l. three weeks have elapsed since Pres
dent Wilson signified his intention Of
recognizing the new republic of Chi
Ia, but so far American Charge Will
liams, at Picking, has been unable TO
carry out his inst uctions for the for
NAL act of recognition The delay has
been caused by the failure of the Chi
nese assembly to organize by the cleo
ton of officers and committees and to
provide for the choosing of president
and executive officers.
Latest advices from Picking disclose
the existence of an unusual parliament
tary situation, the controlling minds
in the assembly being divided into con-
sentative and liberal parties, which IN
turn are split into smaller groups, each
bent upon ENGRAVING particular ileas
into the organic law of the new gov
eminent One of the most important
divisions exists in the radical party,
with advocates of the British system o.
parliamentary government, opposing
wing fayoring the American form.
Altogether, there are four parties in
the field at present, the su' vivors of
nearly dozen that sprung up on the
downfall of the Manchu dynasty.
though the radical party, headed by
LANG Hin Yam, and strongest in the
south of China, probably is most num-
erous in the assembly. 1t can secure
control only by enlisting the support
of one or more of the smaller groups.
Negotiations are in progress between
the various elements to insure the col
lection of the majority to organize the
legislators, and as soon as this is done
Charge Williams will carry out his in
structions to extend the formal recog-
milton.
