STATE FAIR NEWS NOTES

fractions ever shown in Arizona, has been booked for this years Fair, in the form of high-wire performance by Granada and Fedora, known as the human elephant. :" They do a combined high-wire feature act, that has been the sensation all over the Eastern Circuits.
 On a wire, sixty feet above ground, they initiate a huge baby elephant, and walk tight wire with absolutely no parasols, bal ancing rods, or any of the com mon devices used to maintain equilibrium on the high wire.
 This is "hair raiser" in high wire performances, and the most thrilling daredevil feat ever at tempted, as the lives of this in trepid pair of performers depend solely upon their ability to main- tain their balance while walking a hundred feet of tight wire, en- cased in the cumbersome garb of an imitation elephant.
 Unlike most of these danger ous performances, this act is not safeguarded by life nets or simi- lar devices to break the fall, in case they should lose their equil- ibrium.
 One of the thrillers provided for Thursday afternoon, by the Fair Commission, will be a match race between the automobile and the aeroplane. Micky Mcclure who is engaged for the entire week, will race his speedy air CT aft around the mile track Thurs day afternoon in competition to Barney Oldfield, the king of the automobile game. This is dan gerous, as well as interesting race, especially dangerous to the driver of the aeroplane, as safety in an aircraft, strange as it may seem, requires considerable height, especially where they are driving at great speed.
 If anything should go wrong with the engine and it should stop for a second, when travelling so near to the ground, the ma chine and driver would instantly crash to the ground.
 Mickey Mcclure says he al ways feels safer when he is high in the air, for then, if anything should happen to the engine, he | knows that he can gracefully glide and swerve back to terrr- finn, ard make an easy landing.

FOUND TIME FOR AMENITIES
How British and Beers Exchanged
Compliments During the Long
Siege of Kimberley.

During the Boer war Mr.. Rhodes
was shut up in Kimberley, and the
Beers constantly shelled the town with
long-range artillery. They were not
very successful, for with 800 big shells
they only killed IL people.
Meantime, Mr.. Rhodes accomplished
the extraordinary feat of getting
cannon built at his works inside the
town. 1t was regular modern rifed
gun, and fired shells-also homemade
on each of which was stamped,
with compliments of G. ]. Rhodes"
The Beers themselves were not with
out a sense of humor. During Christ
mas, 1899, they were besieging Lady
smith, and on Christmas eve they fred
ten plugged shells into the town each
with piece of plum pudding inside,
and each bearing the words. with tie
seasons compliments"
Two Of the shells were found by the
garrison, and it was discovered that
like Mr.. Rhodes, they were home
made. having been cast in foundry
at johannesburg.

BURIAL PLACE OF KING JOHN
Writer Declares Interment Of Famous
English Monarch Took Place
at Worcester.

In the American Law Review there
appeared an article in which the
writer made an allusion to King John
of England, and said he went ito his
unlamented rest at st. Wolstan's."
Now, is this correct? King John was
buried at Worcester and in the ca
thedral there, and his Scdy has slept
In that spot until Row, unless, like a
streak of morning cloud, 1t has melted
into the infinite azure of the past In
1897, for the purpose of Identifying
the resting place of the king and his
remains, q committee of citizens was
appointed to investigate this matter.
The body was identified and all that
remained of it placed in a new maui
sofeum. where 1t stands today as one
of the objects of interest in Worces-
ter cathedral. Shakespeare. in his
king John" puts in the mouth of
Prince Henry the following words;
AT Worcester must his body be in
TERED, for so he willed It." Thus we
see King John wa~ buried in Worces-
ter cathedral. and 1t is therefore mac
curate to say he was buried at St Vol.
STAINS. The memory of King John Is
not cherished with the feeling that has
followed the lives and deaths Of some
of England's sovereigns. and he will
be remembered only as the monarch
from whom was extorted the great
charter OF English liberty. from which
this country has received a large part
OF it's valued Inheritance to

be greatly increased because he must

To the west and north rose the high
and impossible mountain which had

! the valley the fat-topped Fortunes
! threw their bulwark against the dawn:
and all behind was broken hills and
gLlches, any one OF which might give
up armed men. Far ahead, like a
knife-gash between the ridges, lay the
pass to the northern plains, and as
their trail swung out into the open
they put spurs to their horses and
galloped.
| Once through that gap, the upper

they could pick and choose. Now they
must depend upon speed and the
chance that their way was not blocked.
