do to restrain the enthusiasm and in experienced determination of the old pony express rider. He was going through if he had to drive through the mountain and he wanted things done his way, irrespective of the fact that his fortune was. leaking fast. Burgess stood by Cody and Colonel Dyer was the pair as matter of course.
 When money was needed Col. Cody rode away and brought it back from among his hosts of admirers and warm friends throughout the world who would back him to go through as they always backed him from the days when at fourteen years old, an ex- press rider he rode through the in- dian country of the north.
 Christmas was great feast in the first three years at Campo Bonita.
 There was present from the three old men for every one on the payroll and for the children and the wives.
 Colonel Cody expanded his love of people and delight in giving and pos ed as Santa Claus around the big ren. Some day the big mine was going to be the benefactor of the whole camp and it's dominant leader. G About three years passed. Shee- lite was uncovered, but no gold. No
 gold, in paying quantities was ever found. But sheelite was low and it could not be mined; even after the mill was working for the cost of it.. By and by the truth dawned on Col- onel Cody and his friends. Some of those who loved the old scout bset whispered the ugly rumor that the three friends had been swindled, that the sheelite rock had been heavily salted for their benefit-for the last stake of the three old men.
 Whatever happened Colonel Cody
 said nothing of it and he rode away as he came, with his mane high as usual-bound for another stake, with $160,000 gone never to return in the
 Campo Bonita. Some of his friends were bitter at their losses through l following him in; yet even they rec effected that he had led the way and | laid down his last stake before they had entered.
 The old camp revived during the recent reign of high tungsten prices and leasers are said to have taken
 out about $25,000 worth of royalties for the two coIonels. When the prices fell the camp was deserted where to,

 the tomb of Cody's last stake.

 The last stake of Buffalo Bill" lies buried in the mountains back of Oracle, and under the rust of marrow guage tracks that wind about for a mile and a half, around Campo Bonita. Forty claims that the old scout hoped would retrieve his fortune lie unworked.
 Few will forget Col. Cody when he strode optimistic and jovial through the streets of Tucson, back in 1909, and rode out to the camp with his side pardner on many lonesome night in the old days, Captain Burgess Iof frontier fame. Then came Colonel Dyer, another pardner of Cody in the old days; three men passed middle life, who hoped with their last poke to make million in Campo Bonita, where some expert had reported there was gold in abundance and a noun tain of scheelite ore.
 A mill went up, the little railroad was laid. State Senator Getchell was manager but there was little he could

Mrs. Marsh is also a suffragist and women whose claims have any merit can readily count on hearing from her. Mrs. Marsh is said to be one of those members who had the posi- tion of legislator" forced upon her others who were forced into politics by being true. The woman member from Santa Cruz is rated the wealth fest member of the legislature. She has acquired quite bit of her wealth through her own efforts, at the death of her husband having taken over his business interests with success. She is president of the George B.. Marsh Hardware and Furniture Company and is at her desk every morning at nine o'clock and often remains until long after the last clerk has gone. She does not devote her entire time, how ever, to business and club activities, but enjoys a social function just as thoroughly as any woman who lives q gay social life. During her resi- dence here, Mrs. Marsh will occupy the C. M. Stoddard residence on North First avenue She arrived in Phoenix late, being the last represent ative to reach the city.

NORMAL ENROLL $40 MRS. WILSON Rain
FOR SUMMER COURSE is OPERATED UPON
Several Hundred Still Expected
To Enter in Next Few Weeks
War May Reduce Number.

About $40 students have already en-
rolled for the summer course at the
Normal, and several hundred more are
expected to apply for this course in
he coming two weeks. Many coun-
ties in which the 10-months school
term is maintained have not sent any
students to the Normal, as usual, as
he schools in these counties will not
be closed before the middle of this
month.
Although the number enrolled so
far, Dr.. W. S. Dearmont, president of
The Normal, said last night, was far
greater than in the first two weeks
of any other previous year, he did not
believe that the total number attend
ing the summer course would reach
the records set in other years owing to
the fact that many young men have
either enlisted in the army or expect to
be drafted into service.
The summer session began last Mon
day and will be continued to Aug. 10,
it being the last regular quarter of
the school year. Besides the regular
Normal courses, many special studies
are offered the teachers who can at
tend only the summer quarter.
High school teachers and students
preparing to teach in high schools
can make the necessary special prepa-
ration in high school subjects required
by the State Department of Educa-
ton to qualify them to teach in the
high schools of Missouri. The follow
ing studies will be required of this
class: Agriculture, general science,
English. history. Latin, German,
mathematics, sociology, economics,
household, arts and manual training.
A special course in the Spanish Ian
guage and in the Spanish-American
history has beer .iadded this year
through the aid of the Carnegie Foun-
dation for Peace. The purpose Of this
innovation is to bring about closer
commercial relations between the
United States and the Spanish-Amer-
lean countries.
Aside from the subjects mentioned
above the studies required of the stu
dents of the regular terms of the Nor
NAL will be taught during the sum-
mer quarter, and each student will re-
ceive credit for the grades as during
the regular term.

CUTS THROAT HANGS
HERSELF TO TREE
Mrs. Benjamin KIemp of Near
Big Whitewater SIashes
Threat and Wrists.

Bent on taking her life while in a
state Of mental arrangement. Mrs.
Benjamin Kemp, who lived near Big
Whitewater (Bollinger County,, slash
ed her breast several times, inflicting
gaping wounds and finally ended her
life by hanging. Her body, suspended
from a tree in the woods near the home
was found by her husband and neigh
Dor who had searched several hours
for the missing woman. The follow
ing is taken from the Perry County
Sun:
On last Tuesday afternoon Mrs.
Benjamin Klemp committed suicide by
hanging herself to tree, perhaps a
hundred yards lck of their home near
Big Whitewater, Bollinger County.
While her husband was at work in
the blacksmith shop she went upstairs
and tried to commit suicide by stab
bling herself in the breast with a pocket
knife, the full length of the blade, and
cut both of her wrists.
When her husband was through with
the job Of work waiting on him, he
went upstairs in their home and found
his wife in the condition above men,
toned. He went to a neighbor for
assistance and also to call a physi-
clan and while he was away from the
house his wife took a rope, went in
the woods back of their home, secure
~ fastened the rope on limb of a
tree and around her neck and ended
for all times her troubles in this world.
When her husband and Benton Muir
ray, to whom he went for assistance,
returned to the house they looked all
over it but failed to find her. So they
began a search outside and soon found
her hanging to a tree lifeless. DR..
BIaylock, the physician summoned,
was much surprised to find that his
patient had committed suicide.
Mrs. Klemp's maiden name was Sci
dell, a daughter of F. Seidel who COM
mitted suicide several years ago. She
was 26 years old. and became mentally
deranged last October, but only at
times, Most of the time she did not
show mental arrangement, but here of
late when she took spells she became
violent. Her ending was a sad one
indeed.
Her mortal remains were laid to
rest at Lixville yesterday afternoon.
She is survived by five brothers: Erich,
Ernst, Arno, Charles and Fritz Seidel;
two sisters, Mrs. Gustav Kemp and
Miss Lena Seidel, and her mother, who
lives in Ohio.
