afrcsh a war that had supposedly died
out and changed Switzerland's history.
Among various other jobs that kept
the housewife up late that winter night
was the boiling of a huge kettle Of po-
tatoes Just as the water had come TO
a boil she heard through the stiffness

The woman's house was on the ram

the city wall. Blowing out the single
canGle that lighted the room, the woman
crept to the window to investigate the
sound.
Geneva was the chief city of Switz-

education and was the refuge of re-

Duke Whit Only Local Brave to Face Terrific Morale Breaking Force of Invasion from Bi-metal- lists of New Mexico
By Sally Jacobs)

The effect of the European war on baseball was demonstrated yesterday when one of the most fiendish acts ever perpetrated on the diamond oc- cured and was witnessed by a vast throng The deed was accomplished
 with such shrewdness and cunning that not one out of the hundreds present could state just when or how it occurred. What daring and devil ish device Silver City used to blow up Phoenix will ever be a mystery but it served it's purpose leaving the enemy in control seven to our four. Inventors have given the world many various contrivances but this unknown horror easily takes first place as a master war implement. Not a thing to See not an echo of explosion yet there were the shattered remains It must have been underground work ings we concluded and a stricter watch will be held henceforth that we might at least save our reputation as fighters.
 There was one brave warrior, who was always at the front regardless of whether or not the bullets were fired in his direction. There was no spot on the field too dangerous for this courageous soldier and he proved himself every inch a hero. There is no doubt but that promotion is ahead for Mr. Duke Whit, which will un- doubtedly make a difference at the fort, especially in the character of the guests at dress parade.
 MT. Horace Griffen's leave of ab- sence has certainly tended to inn prove him in every way. He has ac- quired a more direct bearing, keen CT eye and his fighting spirit seems aroused. There was a brilliancy about his methods that proved him alert, watchful and invaluable to his cap tain.
 After the hard days battle what a relief to sit around the camp fire and again rehearse the antics of MT. Lin dey. who, even under fire, must have his fun. The bugle call had hardly died away before he performed an ln- teresting juggling act. Later he gave an exhibition of the latest ball room dances in order to keep from touch ing the bullet to which he showed great aversion considering that he's an army nfRn The man with the megaphone announced a ball game at 1 Riverside today which will be q novel l and most unusual event.

One of the busiest places in town is the office of the state fair, in the Fleming building. The fair com mission IS using every endeavor to distribute universally and without discrimination the premium lists, en . try blanks and all possible informa ton concerning the fair. In order that no one may be omitted, news letters are being sent semiweekly to every newspaper within the state, for publication as frequently as deemed best.
 Every effort is being made to en- list the earnest interest of every res ident of Arizona to make the coming fair the greatest and most successful ever held in the state, especially IT. the womans department Women are urged to make their entries early and not wait until the last few days, when everything is crowded and in a rush to be done. Entries for this department will close absolutely on Wednesday at p. m, Novembers4 and all exhibits must be delivered at the fair grounds, Women's build ing, November 6, being Friday before the beginning of the fair.
 Judging will take place Saturday before the Fair, November '.
 This. however, does not apply to cooked foods. These may be deliv cred as late as p. m. Monday, No vember g, the opening day, and judged Tuesday, the second day of the fair.
 Attention is directed especially to the rule in the Pantry Stores divis ion, which says that canned fruits, pickles and preserves must be put up in pint jars. This is necessary because the room is limited, the fruits. after being opened for judg- ing may spoil and be wasted, and be- cause larger jars, on account of weight and bulk are impracticable for the essentially frequent handling.
 Every exhibit in the Textile Fab rics division is carefully scrutinized. one by one. by the judges, and after the winners of premiums are decided upon the ribbons are attached re- spectively and the articles arranged for display as artistically and elab- orately as the accommodations will allow Those bearing ribbons are given choice of place and the exhi5i-

tiCn of the aggregate made as attrac- tive as possible.
 Articles of exceptional excellence will be received and considered, whether found named in the prem ium list or not. Each year earnest effort is made to change or increase the numbers in the catalogue to more effectually answer the growing demands of Arizonas fast developing possibilities.
