Maine, half submerged at Diamond

But for the character of her cargo
the Cressy now would be at the bot

road ties and while the vessel was

Whereas, there is an error in the
minutes of the board of equalization
of August 10th, 1915, wherein certain
instructions from the state board of
equalization were carried out by the
county board of equalization and I'M
der the law, the county board had no
such authority, and as it was the duty
of the county board of supervisors,
and should have appeared in the min
untes of such board of supervisors
under the date of August 18th, 1915.
Now, therefore be it resolved, that
the minutes of the county board of
equalization dated August 18th, 1915,
and the minutes of the county board
of supervisors dated August 10th,
1915, be so corrected that the changes
ordered by the state board of equali-
zation appear as the minutes of the
county board Of supervisors, in ac-
cordance with paragraph 4S44, re-
vised statutes of Arizona, 1913, and
not those of the county board of
equalization, in the following instan-
ces:
Following the instruction of the
state board of equalization and in
compliance with paragraph 1885, title
40, revised statutes of Arizona, 1915,
civil code. the following changes in
assessments for the year 1915 were
ordered made by the county board of
supervisors:

INTEREST TO TEACHERS

The following letter is of interest
to teachers contemplating taking the
regular examinations which will be
conducted at Okanogan, May 10, IA
and Is. The letter is from the state
superintendent, Mrs. Josephine Pres
ton, and is addressed to County SUI
perintendent w. E. Gamble:
The 1913-1914 edition of the State
Manual of Washington is exhausted.
AS the State Department of Educa-
ton contemplates a revision of the
State Course Study and expects to
have this ready for the printer in the
near future, it seemed unwise to in

cur the heavy expense of issuing a
very small, temporary edition. Also,
as four thousand of the manuals
have been absorbed by the state in
two years of time, we feel assured
that through the superintendent and
principals of schools and county SUI
perintendents of the various coun-
ties it is possible for nearly all de-
string a State Manual to procure one.
Those who are unable to secure a
copy of the manual can prepare for

AN ERRONEOUS IMPRESSION

An article recently appeared in some
of the papers of the state on the home
stead laws in which the statement
was made that an act of congress
granted an additional homestead of
100 acres to any one who had already
made final proof under the homestead
act. On the strength of this publica-
ton individuals have endeavored to
file on additional land before the local
United States commissioner, and have
been insistant that it could be done
The following letter from Register
Ben Spear, of the Waterville land Of
flee should put to rest any such erron-
eOus Impressions:
Mr.. Fred T. Neal,
U. S. Commissioner,
Oroville, Washington.
Sir:
Referring to your letter of the 18th
instant, / beg to advise you that this
Office has been informed of no act of
congress allowing an additional home
stead to anyone who has already made
final proof for 100 acres under the
homestead laws.
However, law was passed, validat-
ing entries allowed prior to January
l. 1914, under the provisions of the
enlarged homestead act, to persons
who by reason of having made proof
on homestead entries prior to such
allowance were therefore not qualified
to make such entries.
Said act is merely valuation of
existing entries.

"CrapOuillOt' IL Made From Shra p

LONDON, Sept. 2s.-The French troops
are using "A new bomb thrower OF ex-
treme simplicity. with which they are
obtaining remarkable results, according
10 experts who have soan them at work.
This weapon, which IL known as the
''crapouillot,' consists of n s%hrapnel shell
case mounted on a wooden stand. with
a spike In front to anchor 1t firmly. The
case of the shrapnel shell remains intact
after II has been fired, as its object In to
act like a little cannon; ats end opens
and tho %shrapnel with which II IN
crammed is driven out by n charge Of
powder at the bottom of the case. These
shrarnel cases are carefully picked up
by tho French to be used against the
enemy. They are cut down and q touch
hole IL bored In them.
The cost OF the finished bomb shrower
does moi exceed s1.25 n Its weight II
negligible. A charge of powder Is poured
into the shell case and n bomb we'll
loaded with explosives placed upon II.
The charge Is fired by the touchhole
and the bomb is thrown into the air: II
turns clumsily over and yer like a large
sausage. hut n finds its target with re-
markable accuracy.
When In the vlcissitudes Of battle the
Germans succeed In capturing a front
rench their c~ommunique not infre'
quently dignines these boinb ,throwers
with he name of guns. People read
that ten. twenty or thirty guns have
been captured. and never for a moment
suppose that these Insignificant trei1h
mortHrs are meant.
