CALIFORNIA ExPosITIoNs.

INT. R. K. MmSOn,
 G P. A., A. & N. M. By. Co.
 Clifton, Arizona.
 Dear Sir
 The undersigned, being fully advis ed, take pleasure in notifying you that the Panama-Pacific International Ex position at San Francisco, will be opened complete in all of it's details on the date fixed, i. e., February 20 191s and continue until December 4 1915.
 | We have pleasure also in stating that the Panama California Exposi tion, at San Diego, will open in its entirety on the date announced, namely, January list, 1915 and con | tinue throughout the year. k Passenger officials can announce ithis unqualif1edly, and in order that the greatest number may be advised we would suggest that commencing with January all issues of timetable folders, to and including those of April, devote at least one page to such information. We find that, re- lgardless of the many former announc- ments, there still remains feeling | in the minds of some people living at distance or in remote parts of the United States and Canada that the Propositions will be delayed in their opening or postponed. A simultaneous announcement that the Expositions will open ON TIME, in folders and railway publications generally, continued for at least three issues and if possible accompanied by views of the grounds or other H. lI,xck cro a wards this erroneous impression that at the same time stimulate an in terest in the Propositions. The use of space for this purpose in regular publications will involve no cash ex- penditure, and we believe the re- suits to each line will more than justify the allotment of space sug- gested.
 The enclosed memoranda covering some of the principal features con- corning the Propositions may be of service to you on which to base your announcement,
 Yours truly,

CLIFTON TENNIS CLUB
 HANDICAP TOURNAMENT
Carmichael Cup. Winner H. c. McIIveen. Runner up Dr. T. B. Smith.

The final of this most interesting tournament was pulled off on New Years Day. The competition had resolved itself into a trial of strength and of the handicapping committees ability between Dr. T. B. Smith at minus 15 6-6 and H. c. McIlveen at plus 15. Both players had quite a struggle to reach the final stage, Dr. Smith having defeated in close games Dauber Mason, Willis Bennie and 4. W. Liddell, while Mac had account ed for J. w. Mason, Geo. Drysda3e and J. G. Cooper.
 Only those who saw the final and they were not a few, know how keen it was. How Dr. Smith, starting oil with great abandUn, won the first two sets easily at 6-1 and 6-3. Macs dogged determination now made itself evident and he won the third set. McIlveen also won the fourth set and likewise the fifth by 9-7. pr. Smith had his last set 6-5 with advantage on his side in the twelfth game but Mac pulled up and won set and a match.
 MT. Carmichael, in presenting the cup, made few appropriate remarks anent both players who deserved all he said Dr. Smith won the tennis racquet presented by the Club. This in no wise com pensates for the honor which attached to winning the cup The competition all through was great success.

VETS LOSE CASE

~ II
 before the supreme court can get around to the case, so Arizona, no matter what the outcome may then be, will be dry for at least twelve months. Attorneys representing the vets departed for Phoenix to pre- pare papers immediately for their appeal to the highest court of the nation. There is no intention, ac- cording to representatives of Arizona officials, to interfere with the use of wine in communion services.
 Leslie Hardy, assistant attorney general of Arizona, who addressed the tribunal in opposition to the peti- tion of Rev. Thomas Connolly, a Catholic priest of Tucson, declared that mo court in Arizona would rule that the prohibition law forbade the importation of special wines to be used in established religious cere- monials :"
 Cross the Line to Mexico.
 As far as the liquor men are con cerned, those who are established in the northern and central portions of the state are hit the hardest. Those in the towns along the southern boun- dary have already made preparations to move their establishments across the street into Mexico, where, par. ticularly since the revolutions began there is no regulation of any sort to binC or hinder them.

EARLY WINTER LAYING HENS
Can Be Accomplished by Early Hatch
ing and Proper Feeding of Pullets
In Early Fall.

Late Matched pullets rarely lay until
the middle of the winter or early
spring. Chickens should be Matched in
April or May II they are expected to
furnish eggs in the late fall or early
winter. The season in some localities
is quite short, and it is often difficult
to get fully matured .pullets before
winter sets in. This can be done, how,
ever, by early Matching and proper
feeding of the pullets during the late
summer and early fall. If the pullets
do not receive their proper growth by
the first of November and show signs
of laying, it is doubtful whether they
will lay to any extent until the follow
ing spring.
The cockerels should be separated
from the pullets as soon as possible
thus giving pullets plenty of oppor
tunity to develop size. If they are al
lowed to mix unfortunately witt
the old hens and cockerels, they are
liable to be stunted in growth, as 1t II
impossible for them to get their proper
allowance Of feed. Keeping them ou
on the range, separated from the res
of the flock, is the best method O
handling them.

Boat That Vanished.

A mysterious thing about the
Thames. which no amount of police
supervision will destroy, is the ghost"
boats which have been, and are, fire.
quently seen in various parts of the
river. Il is fact that river police
patrols have actually given chase to
such ghost ships, to find there is moth
ing substantial to be found on reach
ing the place where the ships had
seemed to be.
One of the most curious stories of
this kind is that of the mysterious
boat which was seen making it's way
along the water toward London bridge
one day, about quarter of century
ago. As she neared the bridge there
was tremendous explosion, a vivid
burst of light, and then-nothing!
Not so much as splinter of wood re-
NAMED of the boat which had been,
and the story Of it fingers from
that day to this as one of the hun
dreds of tragic unknown things which
form the secrets of the river OF mys-
terry.

CATS AS DOMESTIC PETS
Many Famous Men Have Been Fond
of the Animals and Made Them
Their Companions.

From an esthetic point of view the
Persian cat is perfect being. It's
fine. long, silky hair might, If woven,
serve to robe Queen NAB. The neck
ruff, the "feathered" ears and feet,
the falling whiskers and the squirrel
like tail of milk-white Persian tabby
make it thing of ideal beauty The
hand longs to stroke it down. AS it is
a creature of ready sympathies, and
not suspicious, it is glad to be ca
ressed. Perhaps it is not so intelli-
gent as the tiger-striped cat, but 1t is
quicker to lend itself to the ways of
a kind master or mistress.
French men are even greater anna
teurs of cats than French women, who
resemble them in so many things. A
cat was suffered by Richelieu to nurse
its kittens in his cardinals hat.
Mazarin (but he was an Italian) used
| to stroke down cat that he kept in
| his arms when debating to his diplo-
matte secretaries.
The only domestic animal Victor
Hugo would allow in his house was a
cat, because "domesticity did not cur
tail its liberty" He had at Guernsey
a slate-colored Maltese, with a black
muzzle and black end to its tail,
which (the cat, and not the tail)
used to sit on his desk when he was
| writing.
The black cat is the least apt to
scratch. It got bad name when old
and sometimes, because suspected
of being evil spirits in feline guise
shared their fiery fate.

River Of TRAGEDY.

Just as no other river has quite
the same wonder as belongs to the
Thames, so no other river is wrapped
in mystery, so surrounded with stories
of tragedy and crime, London An.
swers says.
Many of the old waterside houses,
which rise sheer with the river, con
tain rooms in which tins floor is Quilt
directly over the water-fioors upon
which one could stand in apparently
perfect safety while someone In an
adjacent room worked lever which
caused the floor to open and their
victim to drop into the river.
A gambling club is said TO have met
in such room once a year to play
for tremendous stakes. 'rhe party
played on until one of their members
was ruined. Then the rest OF the
men went away in silence. while the
ruined man went down into the dark
waters.

The Newest Discovery in Chemistry

This is recent discovery of Doctor
Pierce, who is head of the Invalid's
Hotel and Surgical Institute at Buffalo,
N. Y. Experiments at DR.. Pierce's
Hospital for several years proved that
there is no other eliminator of uric
acid that can be compared to it. For
those easily recognized symptoms Of
infiammation-as backache, scalding
urine and frequent urination, as well
as sediment In the urine, or If uric
acid in the blood has caused rheuma-
tism, 1t is simply wonderful how sure
ly "Anuric" acts. The best of results are
always obtained in cases of acute
rheumatism in the joints, in gravel
and govt, and invariably the pains and
stiffness which so frequently and per-
sistently accompany the disease rap
idly disappear.
Go to your nearest drug store and
simply ask for 50-cent package of
The Meridian times. (Meridian, Idaho) 1909-1938, 1915-11-05

"Anuric" manufactured by DR.. Pierce,
or even write DR.. Pierce for a large
trial package (1Oc). If you suspect
kidney or bladder trouble, send him
sample OF your water and describe
symptoms. DR.. Pierce's chemist will
examine it, then DIR. Pierce will report
to you without fee or charge.
NOTE. e nuric" is thirty-seyen
times more active than lithia in elimi-
mating uric acid, and is harmless but
reliable chemical compound that may
be safely given to children, but should
be used only by grown-ups who actu-
ally wish to restore their kidneys to
perfect health, by conscientiously
using one box-or more in extreme
icases-as "Anuric" thanks to Doctor
Pierce's achievement) is by far the
most perfect kidney and bladder cor
rector obtainable.

DEVICE FAILED TO PLEASE
Old Gentleman by NO Means Grateful
for contrivances Meant to Save
Him Trouble.

A Staten Island man named George
Moore recently invented rocking
chair rocker that never reached the
patent office in Washington. The in
ventor was discouraged by his grand
father, Samuel p Moore, for whom he
had constructed the rocker.
Moore the younger has always been
known as tinkerer Back OF the
house he has workshop and for years
has whiled away many an hour put
ting things together that never
brought him any return save the salts
faction he felt in constructing them.
Grandfather Moore has always had
the habit of violently rocking his rock
ing chair on the porch. First Grand
son Moore invented a rocker silencer,
SO that the old man could rock away
to his hearts content and never get
on anybody's nerves. The elder Mr.
Moore did not seem to take as much
| pleasure in rocking as formerly, bui
nobody commented on the fact at the
/ time.
| A few days ago Grandson Moore
while Grandfather Moore was down al
the post office, attached a small motor
to the rocking chair in such a way
that by connecting the wires the chail
could be set going like a seasaw
When the elder Mr.. Moore returned
and took his favorite seat the chat
began to pitch him back and fortl
without an ounce of effort on his part
| Did he feel grateful? Not at ali
He left the chair, kicked the motto
continuance and told his grandso
what he thought of it.
Don't We know my pleasure is 4
rocking myself?" he cried.

RUSSIA IS SENDING
AID TO SERB|ANS
TROOPS CROSSING BLACK SEA
WITH VIEW TO TAKING Bull
GARiANs IN THE REAR.
serbia's Tiny Neighbor and Ally, Mon
tenegro, is Being Hammered by
Austrians-Serblans Appeal to
Allies for instant Aid.

London.-Serbia remains the center
of interest in the war. Except for the
French contingent stiffening the Ser
bian line in the region of Strumitsa,
the allied reinforcements have not yet
reached her hard pressed and retreat
ing armies, and only the mountainous
character of the country is saving
these troops from humiliation.
Serbia's tiny neighbor and ally,
Montenegro, meantime, is being ham
mered by the Austrians, who are ex-
erting renewed pressure along the
Drina near Vishegrad, In movement
co-ordinating with the general Teu-
tonic offensive in the Balkans.
Following the Russian lombard
ment of the Bulgarian littoral, Rus
sian troops are now reported to be
crossing the Black Sea preparatory
to an attempted landing, with a view
to taking the Bulgarians in the rear.
These reports come from German
sources, however, and are not confirm
ed: nor is the report of a big naval
engagement in the Black sea between
a Russian squadron and Turkish war
craft, headed by the Goeben and Bres
lau
Serbian circles in London are still
making urgent appeals to the allies to
rush troops to their country's support
but the very fact that the SerDianS
have been able to hold out up to the
present time has created certain
amount of optimism.
The Bulgarians are said to be pre-
pairing special trains to transport Ger
man troops over the Bulgarian rail
way to Constantinople through
Thrace. Already war munitions hav'
been dispatched to the Turkish cap
ital.
Neither of the great battle front
in the east and west has furnishe
any marked developments. Petrogra
reports that the AustroG Germans ar
evacuating Volhynia, leaving vas
quantities of ammunition and SUI
plies.
Russian resistance in the Riga dill
trict evidently is holding firm, as tn
Germans admit a retirement sout
across the Missa near Palaknen, ate
they had advanced on the norther
bank of that stream. Palaknen
about eleven miles directly south
Rigra, which shows the nearness
the German approach. The German
retired after they had repuised tW
strong attacks and were facing
third.
Berlin reports that nothing of m
ment has occurred on the weste1
front since the issuance of the pr
vious official statement. Paris d
clares the Germans were beaten off
violent counterattacks made in an
fort to regain positions near La Cou
