 CURIOUS TEETH
(Cur Dumb AnimaIs)

Whoever has looked inside an ele- plants mounth has seen a strange sight. Elephants have no front teeth, and they never eat flesh or any food
 that requires tearing apart. Eight teeth are all they have, two above and
 two below on each side, huge yellow
 molars as wide as a mans hand. over
 these hay and fodder the shifted by the
 queerest, ugliest tongue in the whole
 animal kingdom, a tongue that is lit
 terally hung at both ends, having no
 power of movement except in the mid-
 dle, where it shifts back and forth from the side, arching up against the roof of the big mouth like a wrinkled pink. serpents. Elephants, like human beings have two sets of teeth. The milk teeth, which are smaller than the permanent mollars, fall out when the animals are about II years old. These baby teeth-which are, nevertheless. | cnormous-are occasionally picked up | by circus men among the fodder and aracnrVed q S curiOSitieS

J. H. Williams, proprietor of Mes- quite camp, located east of the city. who returned yesterday from trip to Los Angeles overland, driving Hudson seven passenger car, related the following events of the trip to Cal Messner, local Hudson distributor:
 Accompanied by my wife and other parties I left for the coast in the sum- mer and the delights and pleasures I acquired from the use of the Hudson while spending the summer on the coast are too many to relate.
 'On the return trip to Phoenix we made the trip in three days, taking our time, and experienced no engine trouble and very few tire difficulties. We returned by way of Yuma and through the Imperial Valley"
 According to MT. Williams the camp east of the city will be repaired and be opened for business by September. He expects to establish a precedent this year in the amount of business consummated.

MORE MEALS THAN
 SOLDIERS CAN FAT

The attention of local exemption boards has been called to a situation in which loyalty and patriotism may become an embarrassment to the gov ernment and the railroads Selected men on their way to mobilization camps are provided with tickets for their meals. The meals are furnished by railroad companies over which the men travel, a ticket to be surrendered with each meal The railroad compan- ies know just how many meals are needed at each stopping place for each contingent
 Now hAfe is where patriotism comes in. Along the route at many places people want to show their good will for the soldiers by preparing meals for them. In such cases, the meals pre- pared by the railroad companies are untasted and the companies have noth- ing to show for them.
 No objection is raised to this ex- pression of loyalty by the people who volunteer to feed the boys, but the lat ter, it is desired, shall be requested tC turn in their tickets at the places where they otherwise would have received their meals

Americas First Traitor,
Banished to West Indies,
Meets Death While at Sea,

benjamin Church. n graduate Of Har-
ward aud member of distinguished
New England family, was the first
American traitor. Church became emil
nent as surgeon and as writer of
verse and was one of the leading Wings
In the years just preceding the Revolu-
ton. At one time he was member
of the Massachusetts provincial con-
gress and became a member Of the fa-
nous Boston committee of safety.
The committees plans were consist
entity revealed to General Gage, gov
ernor of the province. but the source of
the leak was not discovered until after
the Revolution was fairly under way.
AZ the time of the actual break be-
tween the colonies and England,
Church was assigned TO an important
colonial hospital. In September, ITO,
letter from Church 10 British army
officer containing secrets of the colon
Isl army. was intercepted. Church had
intrusted the letter, written in code,
10 Il woman. to be conveyed to one Of
General Cages staff officers. The voni-
IN confessed her share of the treason
able move and implicated Church
The traitor was taken before "a eoun-
ell presided over by Washington and
he there waetically admitted his guilt,
Congress. acting on the suggestion of
the trial council, ordered Church kept
In close confinement in the Cambridge
iau without the use Of pen or paper,
and that no person he allowed to con
verse with him, except In the pres
ence and hearing of colonial officers
until further orders from this or fu-
ture congress-"
Chureh's health failed rapidly and
he was permitted to undergo Danish
ment to the West Indies. He sailed in
a merchant vessel in May, 1915, and
neither the ship nor Church ever was
heard of again.

Eut the members Of the rules commit
tee did not even discuss the splitter in
q casual way.
In discussing the spitball at one Of
the National league sessions. Jimmy
Callahan Of the Pirates advanced the
opinion that 1t would be unfair to leg
islate against II now. Callahan believes
that the moist delivery has been in
vogue too long. He pointed out that II
has been In use at least ten years, and
that If 1t had been particularly unde-
sirable IT should have been eliminated
before hundreds Of pitchers had
studied 1t and mastered its use. The
emery ball WIS short-liyed In the ma
jor leagues. Action against 1t was
quick and when II was made Illegal
there was no great hardship worked on
the pitchers.
With the splitter 1t Is different. Hun
dreds Of young pitchers who are com.
ing up have adopted the splitter for
use in the tight places. 1t IS used by
at least 40 per cent of the pitchers of
the country today and 1t has become
an institution. So the splitter viii live
on for some time to come and may
never be barred.
