Clever double exposure photography

 This Turco captured single-handed Ia German captain. After carefully disarming him he was taking him to the rear. when the officer, in vio lent temper. cursed and swo-e ai the gallant Algerian.
 The latter stood it for a while, but as the flood of abuse showed nc signs of diminishing he at last point ed his rifle at the German, and calm Iy handed him and made him carry his knapsack and the whole of his equipment.
 He completed the luckless Ger mans discomfiture by sticking a saucepan on his head. and thus led his insulter through the lines amid roars of laughter.

have already begun to extend their op- erations in this direction.
 Some years ago the Germans, after many years of experimentation and the expenditure of millions of dollars, suc- ceeded in making synthetic indigo and they made it so cheaply and with such practical adaptation to commercial use. that they entirely killed the nat ural indigo trade and secured A mon- oply of the indigo market. Their pat ents covering this product will continue to protect them for some years to come. Synthetic indigo, therefore cannot at present be produced in this country and manufacturers will probably have to revert to the use of vegetable dyes so far as indigo is concerned.
 Other chemical products, such as certain chemicals used in photography and certain drugs used in medicinal preparations. which have hitherto been imported principally from Germany. can also be manufactured here The overpowering competition which Ger man interests and the cartel system have in the past been able to bring to bear the only thing that has prevented the development of these and other chemical fields in America.

INTERNATIONAL TRADE (Continued From Page One)
s7.os5. 900. 900 ss.s2s. 900. .ooO

Germany's annual exports to the western hemisphere have amounted to about s391, 100000. a year.
 Germany bought from the United States in the fiscal year of 1913 goods to the value of over $331, ,000, 900 and sold to her goods to the value of near ly s1S9,0O0.0O0.
 She shipped to the United States last year misunderstanding coal-tar pre- parations, alizarin, aniline salts. indigo,
 potash. quinine. and other drugs-to the value of $21,750,000; $13.000.000 of cotton goods; one million tons of potash salts; 150 million pounds of wood pulp;
 B million pounds of palm and palm
 kernel oil; $S,000.000 worth of toys; 65
 million pounds of rice flour; million
 pounds of crude cocoa and immense
 quantities of cutlery, antifriction balls,
 gloves, silks. paper goods and clover
 and sugarbeet seed.
 There are certain articles of com merce in which Germany holds vir- tual monoply. She produces practically
 the worlds entire supply of potash, so largely used in making fertilizers. There is plenty of potash all over the world It exists in the form Of sili- cates of potassium everywhere in the earffl's crust But Germany has a monoply of the potash trade by reason of the fact that the immense deposits lat Strassfurt are readily soluble in water and easily amenable to chemi- tcal operations. This condition has not 80 far been found to exist anywhere else.
 Cyanide, so largely used in the re- covery of gold. has hitherto been al- most exclusively supplied from Ger many.
 At the present time America is pro- ducing about 20 per cent of the colors and dye-stuffs which she uses. The
 rest have been coming largely from Germany which exercises a monoply l in certain-of the so-called coal-tar pro ducts. Owing to the long start she got in this branch of industry. to the skill 1 of her chemists and the protection of
 her patents, Germany has been supply | ing the world with dyes. Many of tbe chemical products with the exception l Of those concerned in the manufacture of a few shades of color can be made : in this country, and one or two firms

COLUMBUS DAY
 CELEBRATION
Plans Rapidly Maturing for Fla borate Commemora- tion of Anniversary of Birth of Discoverer of America

Plans are rapidly maturing for a
 bration of Columbus Day on October F. Heretofore the day. which is a
 public holiday in Arizona, has been
 marked only by short formal speech
 making at the city hall and the closing
 of the state departments and the banks.
 This year, however, things will be diff ferent. It is expected that not only the
 state departments and banks, but all
 federal offices and great many busi-
 ness concerns will close for the day or part of it and the Knights of Colum-
 bus under whose auspices the program
 will be carried out have appointed a
 committee comprised of J. T. Whitney,
 chairman: F.. Power Conway, Frank
 DeSouza M. J. Ryan and T. M. Nealon, assistant secretary of the board of trade. to take full charge of the cele- bration.
 A number of the most prominent speakers of the state will be brought to Phoenix for the occasion and it is planned to hold monster picnic. with music and dancing and other sports and to show the great movie spectacle of the landing of Christopher Colum- bus. Several novel events are under discussion and will be announced shortly.
 l. has been decided to hold the cele- bration at Riverside park and several merchants have already announced | their intention of closing their places
 of business for the afternoon. Full de- tails will be published early this week; but enough has already been decided
 on to make it the most notable Colum- | bus Day that has yet been honored in Phoenix.
