Chewing Gum.
Chewing gum is a piece of rubber
tire without a backbone favored with
a smell. A good tire will average
about 5000 miles, but the mileage Of
stick Of gum is unlimited. The
original flavor in a stick of gum soon
exits and then it's like chewing a
chunk of 24-hour boiled tripe.
But expert gum wrestlers never
throw away a wad of gum that has
all the taste Unchewed. Each day
they give it a different flavor such as
brass bed flavor, movie seat taste,
Office furniture flavor, etc. Then,
after a month or so it can be thrown
on the sidewalk or floor for somebody
to step on so they can give an imita-
ton of a fly schOttishing across a
stack Of wheats flooded with New
Orleans molasses.
The gum landscape on the under
part of movie seats and soda fOun-,
tain chairs makes the rocky noun
tain scenery look fatterthanM Mexican
beer. The more modern movie hous-
es don't have the wire hat holders
under the seats since a Chicago ge-
MUS got the bunch of letting George
Gum do it. Soon they'll have res
taurant signs reading, mot respon-
sible for hats, coats, articles and
chewing gum"
The old gag Of walking away and
forgetting your umbrella now has
chewing gum for a teammate.
Chewing gum and talking at same
time is worthy of applause. Tele-
phone operators win with this trick.
They've got. it down so pat a clever
linguist can almost make out what

ITALIAN is SHOT
IN BOOTLEG" RAID
IN BIG LEAD CAMP

An unknown Italian was shot
in the leg in a raid by officers on
an Italian boarding house in
Chloride last night. The raid was
planned by Deputy Sheriff John
Brown and Constable Robert Roe.
Thirty cases of booze and one
case of beer were found.
Mrs. Notella, who conducted the
boarding house, and the wounded
Italian were take ninto custody
The man is not badly injured, the
wound being in the heshy part of
the leg. When the officers appear
ed on the scene the Italian tried
to make his getaway and Brown
fired to scare him, but evidently
took pot shot that took effect.
Chloride is said to be fast filling
up with bootleg" joints and the
officers have gone out to get the
bootleggers and try to break up
the habit of dispensing stomach
varnish at $500 per quart.

NOT HIS JOB

'I'm not supposed to do that" said he,
When an extra task he CHANGED to see;
That's not my job, and it's not my
care,
So I'll pass it by and leave it there"
And the boss who gave him his weekly
pay
Lost more than his wages on him that
day.
"I'm not supposed to do that" he said;
'That duty belongs to Jim or Fred"
So little task that was in his way
That he could have handled without
. delay
Was left unfinished; the way was
paved
For a heavy loss that he could have
saved.
And time went on and he kept his
place
But he never altered his easy pace,
And folks remarked on how well he
knew
The line of the tasks he was hired
to do;
For never once was he known to turn
His hand to things not of his concern.
But there in his foolish rut he stayed
And for all he did he was fairly paid,
But he never was worth dollar more
Than he got for his toll when the week
was DER;
For he knew too well when his work
was through
And he'd done all he was hired to do.
If you want to grow in this world.
young man,
You must do every day all the work
you can;
If you find task, though it's not your
bit,
And it should be done, take care of it!
And you'll never conquer or rise if you
Do only the things you're supposed
to do.

KINGMAN MERCANTILE
COMPANY ORGANIZED
From Fridays Daily MinerI

The Kingman Mercantile company
has been organized by w. H. Rivers,
C. A. Hartigan and G. W. Pierce and
will soon become a factor in King
mans commercial life, handling gen.
eral merchandise.
Messrs. Rivers, Hartigan and
Pierce have arranged to establish the
new store in the quarters now occupied
by the Arizona Engineering company
in the Beale Hotel Block, which con-
Germ is erecting its own building. It
is expected that the engineering COM
pany will vacate its present location
about March l and Immediately there
after the Kingman Mercantile COM
pany will open there for business.
The organizers of the new mercan-
tile company are well known to the
people of Kingman and Mohave
county, having been identified with
like local establishments for several
years, and they will in all probability
receive liberal patronage in their ven
ture.

KINGMAN PROPERTY is
INCREASING IN VALUE
From Fridays Daily Minerl

AS an indication of the increasing
value of Kingman property, attention
is called to the sale of lot on Beale
street few days ago for approxim-
ately $1,000. The same lot has again
been turned" but this time for $1,000.
Other lots sold at the same time were
refused sale at almost double the pur-
chase price. A lot that was purchas-
ed few years ago for 500 cannot
be bought for less than $500. This
indicates good healthy condition of
the real estate market.

HAS NARROW ESCAPE
FROM DEATH IN SHAFT

Jake Stricken, superintendent of the
Leviathan mines, is said to have had
narrow escape from death recently
when he was accidentally showed off
the mine cage. In falling in the shaft,
which is 100 feet deep, he grasped a
timber and hung suspended until a
bucket could be lowered and he was
rescued from his perilous position. He
received only a few laRrations from
contact with the timber. He regards
his escape as most miraculous.

downstairs"
Mr.. Allan laughed heartily. "Well,
your burglar was in that closet after
the money, no doubt, and he didn't
hear you coming, and got locked in"
In few minutes they heard foot
steps around the house and knew the
officers had arrived. Mr.. Allan let
them into the house. four of them, and
led them out to the hall. There could
be no doubt whatever that the burglar
was in the dungeon. He had been
busy with his knife, and the lock was
nearly removed. If the officers had
been two minutes later, the dungeon
would have been empty. The girls were
sent upstairs at once, with the Allan
boy as guard-as guard, without re-
gard for the fact that he was probably
more frightened than any one Of them.
The chief officer raped briskly on
the dungeon door, Then he clicked his
revolver.
"Thcre are enough of US to over
power three of you" he said curtly
"And we have men outside the house,
too. If you put your firearms on the
floor, and hold both hands over your
head, you'll be well treated. If your
hands are not up, we fire on sight. Get
your reyolvers ready, boys"
TheG the officer opened the door.
Evidently the burglar was wise enough
to appreciate the futility of fighting
against odds His hands were above
his head, and in less than a second he
was securely manacled.
The chief officer had been eying him
closely. "Say" he exclaimed. "Aren't
you Ltmber-Limb Grant?' The burglar
grinned but did not answer. "By
Jove" shouted the officer. ut is!
