Reduced Railroad Rates
for Fair at Prescott
(BY "GABE. y

Prescott, Aug. %. Word has
been received that reduced rail-
road rates will be in effect in all
northern counties Apache, Nav
ajo, Coconino, Mohave and Yav-
apai, and within a radius of rs
miles south of Prescott during
the Seventh Annual Northern
Arizona State Fair, Oct. 1911
18, 1919. This means that many
people will be enabled to attend
the Fair who otherwise would
not be able to do so.
There will be plenty of clean,
high-class amusements. 7 h e
Fair Association added another
first-class entertainment feature
when it booked the Beasley-Bou-
cher United Shows. This COM
pany carries a full line of amuse-
ments Of all kinds, and fills out
the program to nicely.
The Association is working
hard to make the Seventh An
nual Fair a big success and their
efforts are being appreciated,
as shown by the fact that elabo-
rate preparations are being
made throughout the northern
part of the state to send the
biggest, best and most attrac-
tive exhibits possible to the Fair
this year. Everyone who can
possibly do so should come to
Prescott on Oct. 16, II and 18
and see what the producers and
educators are doing in Northern
Arizona.

Girl Takes High Dive
With a Ford Car

Miss Beth Jennings of Taylor
drove her Ford car over the
river bank near the bridge at
that place Wednesday with all
most fatal results.
The Jennings family left their
home in the east part of the
town for ride to the store and
postofice. Arriving there they
alighted and Miss Beth, who
was driving the car, was dis
patched home for a letter that
was left behind that had to be
posted. She started off hur-
riedly and as she neared the
bridge the car became uncon-
trollable and made a few short
turns, first to the left and then
to the right and over to the river
bottom about twelve feet below,
The car landed in the mud and
water upside down with the fair
driver pinioned underneath. She
was soon rescued by spectators
and passers-by and taken from
under the wrecked car badly
bruised and bleeding but with
no fatal injuries.

Cont of the Fog I" a

"Out of the Fog" !" a seven
reel classics. with the great Rus
sian actress, Nazimoya, playing
the leading role, was shown at
the local theatre Saturday night.
Notwithstanding the extra ex-
pense of booking this celebrated
picture, the same prices pre-
vailed that are charged to see
the regular weekly shows. Since
the new management took over
the local movie last fall the
prices have not once been ad-
vanced, althoughmany high-class
productions at great cost have
been procured for Snowfake's
screen picture lovers. On ac-
count of the railroad strike, St.
Johns and Holbrook will have
the opportunity of showing "Out

EOX'S THE-ATEk.

Two exceptionally good features, q varied assortment of interesting short subjects and an all-around good vaudeville show comprise the offering of the Fox theater management for the first half of this week. The ever popular Lee Riddles, Jane and kath- crime, are appearing in "American }Buds," a picture which has brought them even moro fame and affection than the large share which was al ready theirs. The other feature is "Whcn a Man Rides Alone," which features that braWny mans man type, William Russell.
 The Lee Riddles appear as orphans in American Buds," the scenes be- ing laid in an orphanage and later in an army encampment. In both places the children devote themselves prn- ciDally to stirring up trouble.
 ''When a Man Rides Alone," the William Russell feature, is one of the most exciting Western dramas that has been seen on the Fox screen in some time, depicting as it does the stirring times of the early Texas Rangers. Russell, as Captain Bonfire. chief of the rangers, is placed in a predicament where three overWhelm- ing motives battle for supremacy the duty to his government the con- passion for a sick and suffering wom- an, and the love for a dare devil girl who hysteriCa1ly "smply wants to kjll.' It is the story Of a man who must choose, and choose quickly, un- der the most extraordinary circ11m- stances and will go a long way toward establishing Russell as one of New Britain's favorite film stars. Four new acts of Fox vaudeville include The Great Nickelson, May and Dufor. Clarke and Harris and the we'll known headline attraction, Roy Harrah and company.
