NoNNENeRucHE POTASH MINES

Twelve billion dollars worth of
potash deposits are almost within
the grasp of the French army in Al
SAGE and will pass into the possession
of France when Mulhauscn is re-
taken. This acquisition alone, if 1t
can be achieved, will largely compen.
safe France for its huge war expcn-
diture.
The deposits are of worldwide re-
pute and are known as the Nonnen
bruche mines. They are situated on
strategic road from Thanh to
Mulhausen.
Potash was discovered there in
1904 and was exploited by a German
syndicate Thus, by selling the de-
posiis, France will not inpoverish
the conquered province of Alsace
The Nonnenbruche yield was the
cause of grave potash dispute be-
tween the United States and Ger
many few years ago.

order was made forbidding the
dumping of garbage anywhere in the

NASHVILLE BOY
Invents and Flies a NOn-Falling
Aeroplane With Unique
Feature.

Everett ID. Brewer. Nashville
boy, has invented and constructed
an aeroplane in which he made 9
trip over the city of Nashville Sat
urday at an elevation of 5000 feet,
says the Tennessean.
Some new features in the aeroplane
are fully covered by patents and the
youthful inventor claims it is the
only air machine in existence that
cannot fall TO earth, unless some inn
portant part, such as the planes or
body, breaks. 1t is automatically
controlled by the shifting of the
planes, and the success of the in
vention was brought out strongly
Saturday in high wind before the
few friends and curious strangers
who witnessed the flights.
With the exception of the motor
and propeller. the aeroplane was
constructed entirely by Brewer, who
is an employee of the r. G. Dunn
company, of this city, and a mechan-
ic of no mean ability. In the flights
Saturday Wright motor and pro-
pellers had been fitted to the ma
chine. which rose without hitch
and skinned the air at the rate of
fifty miles an hour.
One of the unique features includ-
ed in the machine is that it can be
guided upon the ground like an au.
tomobile, a new departure, as all
aeroplanes heretofore were unable
to guide their course after lighting
and were liable to crash into any,
thing that stood before them. The
Brewer machine can be run in com.
plete circles after lighting if neces-
sary to escape some object upon the
ground.
The machine is fifty.five feet in
length and is twenty.eight feet
across, having four planes, each
measuring ten by fourteen feet.

GOOD LETTER FROM 1
FARMERS WIFE.

Mr.. Hollenga delivered an excellent
address on "What can we expect from
the women to better the community :"
on Saturday afternoon, Jan. Both,
which was listened to very attentively,
and in the talk he spoke Of the neces-
sity of the family standing together,
united. Thus they could be strong for
the uplifting and betterment of the
community, in politics as we'll as So
cially. This brought to our mind the
fact that people as a community IN
country as we'll as in town, must stand
together and work together, whether
in matters Of school or club Tin main
issues) if the best results are to be
obtained. In politics we have to deal
with the "ringsters and grafters" and
socially in communities we have the
same element to deal with, in the guise
of the woman or man who puts selfish,
domineering motives ahead of the best
interests of all concerned. In the spir-
it of t'If I can't have things run my
way thereIl be something doing" or
"you've crossed my wishes; we will
down you socially" and forthwith the
selfish, crafty ones will start a scan
dalous story meant to down the sub
ject beyond recall. "But truth crush
ed to earth shall rise again" is still
true. If the talents wrongly used
could all be directed into right chan
nels, what blessing it would be to
mankind.
We, as residents of a community,
should be united on the subject Of i'm
proving and lettering conditions for
the sake Of the homes. Every home is
only one, but what it stands for, be it
a claim shack or modern home, the
principle upheld and taught there, be
it to honor God and be temperate or
standing for those things which tend
to pull down, rather than uplift. The
homes are all part of great whole
which goes to make up the life Of
communities and states. So it be-
hooves us, as individuals, to each do
our part in life we'll. We are here for
purpose. Remember the following

CLAIMED MEN WERE
 NEVER EMPLOYED
(From Wedne sday's Daily)


 It is quite probable that the reviv- ing of the famous early day Blue Dick mines of Hassayampa district has been decided upon, the arrival yesterday from Cleveland, Ohio, of Judge T. H. Bushnell, leading to this impression.
 The visitor is the representative of the owners, and he leaves today for the camp to make Investigations for the purpose of formulating a cam paign of early activity. This move il carried out will revive one of the most prominently known mines of this county of early days, and is only in keeping with many other properties that have resumed during the past year with a creditable record of pro duction in the long ago to warrant their being placed in the active list.
 The Blue Dick was among the mines in the early sos that created considerable excitement, almost akin to boom in that field, through its exceptionally rich silver ores, as well is its bimetal product today to be considered as attractive, but which ill the primitive era of reduction, was a total loss. Its copper character will be a factor toward resuming. This property, with the exception of few months of expert examination work by NJ. C. Burns, now deceased, about four years ago, has lain idle for over a quarter of century.
 Under the option held by Mir. Burns, a thorough miner, determina' tions were satisfactory, and on the eve of closing the deal with San Francisco operators, he was stricken i'll and passed away. This interrupt cd negotiations, and the group passed over to the owners in Ohio. The lower grade ore of the Blue Dick was treated on the ground third of CGilluly dSC ny d Pl iiliitiNN oAlNi1NA' while the rich product was hauled by teams to this city, then freighted to Ehrenberg on the Colorado river, for shipment by steamer to the gulf and then transferred to an ocean liner, finally reaching San Francisco. The customary fault is said to have oc cured at depth, when the camp closed down. This mineral defec- tion, it is reported had been solved by Mir. Burns, wno expressed himself to close friends as having ascertained the location of the mother lode. The Blue Dick adjoins the Mark Twain, owned by F. NJ Murphy of this city on which development has started. Both are among the oldest of pioneer properties located in that belt.

HORRIBLE DEATH OF
 MRS. HENRY AZBILL
(From Wednesdays Daily.)

In answer to a telegram received yesterday morning in this city, by Mrs. Dolly Morris that ner daughter, Mrs. Henry Azbill, had passed away at Gold Road on Monday night from injuries received in falling under the freight wagon of her husband, she left for the above place later in the day accompanied by sister of the deceased, Mrs. Daisy Lajure.
 Only meager particulars were given of the sad accident, which proved fatal few hours afterward. MT. Az, bill was completing his days work in freighting at that mining camp, and his wife was accompanying him nome during the evening. In some manner not learned, Mrs. Azbill fell from the high seat onto the ground, while the team was in motion. It is presumed the front wheel struck rock in the road when the wagon was turned slightly from its course, and the jar was sufficient to throw the woman out. Two wheels of the heavy wagon passed over her body, which was badly crushed, and a short time after ward she succumbcd after suffering intense agonies.
 The death of Mrs. Azbill is to be sincerely and deeply regretted in this community, where she had resided for many years until last spring with her husband. She was young wom- an, of pleasing personality and very popular with many. Her home life was graccd with a fine character and she was q faithful and helpful wife. The funeral will take place today at Kingman.
