CHIEF HARBOR OF MACEDONIA
SaIonica, Built About 315 B. c., Was
Named by Its Founder for
His Wife.

In the days when st. Paul Addressed
his Epistles to the ThessaIOnians Sa-
lOnica was not modern, for it was built
about 315 B. G. on the site of an old
er city called Therme, says the Lon
don Globe, and was named by it's
founder after his wife, a sister of Alex
ander the Great. 1t has always been
a place of Importance, as it is the chief
harbor' of Macedonia, and was point
on the ancient highway from Rome
to the East.
With few fine buildings, like the
old mosque which had been in turn a
temple of Venus and a Christian
church, it has always been a collec-
tiOn of houses largely of wood, and,
therefore, highly inf1ammabIe in the
extreme continuous heat of summer.
The confiagration which recently
swept away the main part of it is not
by very many the first experience Of
the kind in it's history, one of the
most memorable being the fire at the
beginning of September, 1890, which
did $4,OOO000 worth of damage.

Sergeant Finnegan was all dressed
up and looked it. He was stationed at
Fort Tilden-which is away among the
sand dunes on the far end of Rocka-
way POint-and he was going to take
a day off, writes camp correspondent.
"GOOd-by, fellers," he shouted. cts

warm bed at home tonight" And ne
started on run for the boat waiting
at the pier
He had got about 25 yards along
when he heard: Sergeant Finnegan.' -
The voice was the voice of his com
pany commander and the sergeant
turned and went back and stood at sa-
lutte. The captain spoke:
"YOu will distribute the underwear
this afternoon and bring over tho
stoves which arrived at the barracks
this morning"

New YORK'S BURIED WEALTH
Millions of Dollars Worth of Copper,
Lead and Other Products De-
posted Beneath Streets.

Under the streets of New York city
valuable products far exceeding in
quantity and value any mine yet dis
covered throughout the world. En-
gineers and scientists estimate the
amount of copper to be found in the
boroughs of Manhattan and Bronx at
100000 pounds, valued approximate
ly at S7,5O0,000 The lead is estimated
at 6O,OOO,OOO pounds, worth something
like $4,800,0OO.
This discovery was announced at the
electrical exposition at Grand Central
palace, where the Consolidated Tele-
graph and Electric Subway company
had large exhibit showing full-Size
cross section of one of the city'S prin-
cipal thoroughfares. In this mammoth
cross section of earth and rock the
veins of copper and of lead could be
easily traced. OF course, the veins of
copper are the wires carrying the cleo
tric current for lighting, heating, power
and communication to every nook and
corner of the great metropolis, while
the lead is used to protect the cables
The street cross section at the cleo
trical exposition was 70 feet long by %
feet deep. 1t showed the location of
the street railway conduits and rails,
electric service substation, distributing
station, conduits splicing chambers,
with their unique water draining sys-
TENS and other interesting things that
lay beneath the streets of. New York
and mark the advanced stage Of it's
civilization. 1t took crew of 20 men
a week to construct this interesting
exhibit.

CAMPBELL IS GIVEN MORE TIME.

PHOENIX, Feb. 12.-Judge Stan
ford of the MaricOpa county superior
court Monday afternoon extended the
time in which the judgment against
Thomas E. Campbell in favor of Geo.
w. p. Hunt could be paid, for fifteen
days, at the request of Judge r. r.
Sloan, counsel for Campbell III the
long gubernatOrial contest.
AS evidence of good faith Judge
Sloan gave the attorneys for Mr.,
Hunt check for $2,46O.00 which
had been collected by friends of. eX-
Governor Campbell to date. This
leaves $1,66225 of the Judgment of
$4,122.25 yet to be paid Some mis-
understanding has existed through
out the state in regard to this fund,
many people being under the in.pres-
sion that it was Campbells salary
that his friends were trying to raise
for him instead of Mr. Hunts costs
which were awarded to him by the
supreme court in addition to the
salary of governor for the year 1917.
There is no provision in the law to
preclude the governor from receiving
payment other than his official salary
or this case would be further cOmpli-
Gated by the fact that Governor Hunt
acted as federal mediator for the de-
partment of labor during 1917, and
received pay as such.
1t is expected that the remainder
of the fund will be secured this week
as several counties have not yet sent
in any contribution to this fund to
pay the judgment which is generally
admitted throughout the state should
not be allowed to fall on Campbell as
he is already out pay for his years
work.

Who would suspect the supreme
court Of New York having pronounced
views on the equality of the sexes?
But here is Justice Golf, comments the
st. Paul News, who not only admits
that woman may practice law, but in
sists that she is just like other lawyers.
Mary L. Lilly rose to address the
court. "Are you member of the
bar?" queried the justice.
"Yes, your honor" the lady replied.
"Then you should remove your hat,
like all other lawyers"
This little dialogue merely shows
that the court values the ''woman's pre-
rogative" of changing her mind. Not
many years ago DR.. Mary Walker was
in trouble with the courts because she
wanted to wear trousers, like all other
doctors" Now what would Justice
Golf decide If Lawyer Lilly carried his
advice to logical conclusion and
came into court in regular male attire,
like all other lawyers?"

ELIMINATE PROFITEERING.

PHOENIX. February 14.-Definite
agreements regulating the price and
the distribution of eggs and poultry
both fresh and stored, are expected to
be worked out as a result OF confer
ences between the United States food
administration and representatives OF
the trade, according to information
received this week by the federal food
administration for Arizona.
After hearing the views of several
experts who have been serving the
food administration, men represent
ing more than 80 of the big shipping
and distributing interests, appointed
two big general committees to map
out definite agreements-One repre~
senting the egg interests, the other
the poultry. If these are acceptable
to the food administration they will
voluntarily be put in force,
Chief among the reforms desired
by the food administration are the
elimination of unnecessary handling
and the abolition of speculation, both
of which will have a direct effect
upon prices. A sharp differentiation
will probably be made between the
distribution of fresh and cold storage
eggs.
The cold storage product repre-
sents what may be considered as
practically a non-perishable product
and the food administration wishes
it's sale to be governed along the
same general lines followed in the
sale of non-perishables- to be
based upon purchase price without
consideration of replacement value.
Each sale should be regarded as a
separate transaction, to be governed
by regulation prohibiting more
than a normal profit on the individual
transaction. Fresh eggs and poultry
are regarded as belonging in an en-
tirely different category, and the
profits may be gauged on the seasonal
! business, rather than on separate
transactions.

BOARDING IS
TREASONAbLE
'Individual boarding is nothing

individual boarding is nothing
short of reasonable, and the mer-
chant, who in unfairness to the great
the letter and spirit of the food con-
troll act, deliberately violates its pro-
visions has no place in a democracy,
He is aiding Prussianism and he
should be doing business under that
kind of a government instead of a
democracy" So declared Timothy A.
RiOrdan, federal food administrator
for Arizona. Continuing he said:
"While the great mass Of Arizona
merchants, as far as can be ascertain
ed are loyalty supporting the food
administration in following the in
structions issued to millers, retailers
and other dealers in foodstuffs to
prevent boarding, there are a few of
the food pirates, we have reason to
believe, who are not doing so and
Who in fact, are encouraging indi-
vidual boarding, in absolute violation
of the rules
Through the press of Arizona Mr..
RiOrdan calls upon the general public
to aid in the enforcement of the new
rules regarding the sale of -four.
Wheat -four should be purchased in
from one-eighth to One-fOurth barrel
quantities in towns and cities and in
from One-fourth to one-half barrel
quantities or less in rural districts.
Flour should be sold only in equal
quantities with wheat substitutes
which are officially designated as fol-
lows: Corn meal corn starch, corn
-four, hOminy, corn grits, barley
-four, rice, rice flour. oatmeal, rolled
oats, buckwheat -four, potato -four,
sweet potato flour, soy bean flour,
feterita and milo maize meals and
fiOurs.
Retailers are required to sell flour
not to exceed reasonable profit and
this has been established at from
eighty cents to $1.20 per barrel for
flour sold in sacks and when sold in
less quantities the profit should not
exceed one cent per pound.
Another important new rule af-
fecting wholesalers and jObbers reads
as follows:
Rule 27 The licensee dealing in
wheat -four at wholesale shall not,
without the written permission Of
the United States food administrator,
purchase for delivery to him during
the three months period from Feb
ruary 1 to April 80, and from May
to July 81 in 1918, more than 70 per
flour for such period The amount of
purchases made in the corresponding
three months periods in 1917 will be
regarded as prima facie evidence of
such normal requirements"
Through the press and bulletins is
sued from the Office of the federal
food administrator, all dealers in the
state have been fully advised, and it
is up to the loyal residents of the
state, says Riordan, to report any
violations, either with regard to the
sales Of -four as to quantity and with
substitutes or in case of exOrbitant
prices are charged
Such complaints should be address
ed to the federal food administrator
for Arizona, 11S North Central ave-
nue., Phoenix.
