BOY SCOUTS PLAN
 SUMMER ENCAMPMENT
Will, Build Boat With Four Wheels-Baggage to Be
 Carried by Pack Burrows Boys Must Walk.

The Boy Scouts are laying plans for their big summer encampment which they expect to hold some time in the summer. There are sev- eral unique features about the trip which they are planning that will make it different from any other camping trip. It is anticipat- ed that some fifteen or twenty boys will qualify for taking the trip.
 The first unique feature of the camping party will be a boat on wheels. A small scow boat fitted with oars will be placed on bicycle wheels. This will be carried right side up so that it may be filled with luggage when on the road. It will be hauled by a burrow. This will enable the boys to get enjoyment from any body of water at which they may stop. It will also be safeguard in training boys to swim.
 Not soft rides are planned for the scouts. They must cover the country on foot. Their heavy bag gage will be transported by burrows. They will probably go first to Gus Polson's winter camp where they anticipate feasting on fish for day or two. From there they will continue their march to whatever point they may choose. They will probablp camp for one night on the top of Bill Williams some time during the trip. AS a rule they will not stop in one place for more than one night. Each day will see a march of some length.
 The eight boy scout regulars have the trip under their direction anc it rests with them to settle the de tails. Other boys desiring to be |. come and those smaller boys in th' training class who are in good standing, will be invited to gc along, but no boys who do not seri ously intend to become scouts vii be included.

Prescott, Ariz., June, 1915 All arrangements are going ahead rapidly in connection with the holding of the Prescott 1915 F rontier Days, July 3-4-5. One of the best features this year will be the comfort afforded the visit ors. The committee in charge of this work has been in the field and assures the management that desirable and comfortable accom- modations will be provided visit ors at reasonable rates. It is Prescott's proud claim that no overcharge is made during the various celebrations and conven- tions held in this city.
 Arena director F. L. Haworth will manage each days program and there will not be one dull mo- ment during the entire perform nance. To do away with the unnecessary delay in getting the broncos into the chutes, Mir. Haworth has had built four col lapsible chutes, which can be placed around the horses and easily removed. Many new faces will be seen among the contest ants in the arena this year, entry blanks having been filed from every state in the Union and Canada. Tom Mix, the cowboy of the Selig Polyscope Company, who was recently injured while riding in the Los Angeles rodeo has written the management that he expects to be in gooo shape and ready for the fray July 8. John Fredericks, the CamI Verde rider, whose fine work 1T the broncho busting sports, last year, marked him as one o1 Arizona's best men in westerr sports, has sent in his entrance blanks for three events.

1000 saloons in the city of Chicago were
closed last Sunday, 10th. Heretofore, they
have totally disregarded the Sunday clos
ing ordinance. AS result of the closed
saloons, the criminal record for that day
was considerably less than usual. There
were only sixteen arrests for drunkenness
in the city Sunday and forty seven on Sat-
urday, against an average of 243 arrests
for the two days for several months past
And yet some people say the consumption
of whisky has little or nothing to do with
the increase of crime.

against Mr.. Barrett that he has declared for
prohibition for political reasons only, in
other words to catch the temperance vote.
Well, Mr.. Pleasant votes dry to win the
temperance vote and favors local option to
gain the whisky vote. While we do not
doubt Mr.. Barret's integrity, yes suppose
the charge is true, it is more advisable to
elect one who openly processes to favor
prohibition than to elect one who positively
opposes it?
