The King expected to show the American executive the destruction wrought by the Germans in the mines al Charleroi and supply him with doc umentary information of the whole sale and systematic destruction prac- ticed by the Germans.
 The President was not accompanied on the Charleroi visit by Mrs. Wilson, who was somewhat fatigued after yesterdays trying journey.
 A luncheon at the American 1ega- ton, the appearance of the Presi- dent before the Belgian Chamber of Deputies and his reception by Car dinal Mercier at Malines were a. few of the features on today's program.
 President and Mrs. Wilson, with King Albert and Queen Elizabeth as their guides, yesterday saw the de- vastation visited upon Belgium by the Germans. The first part of their visit deeply affected the Americans. The second phase was entirely differ . ent.
 In the forenoon almost no resi- dents were encountered. In the af- ternoon the appearance of President Wilson at Ypres, Ostend, Zeebruggee and finally Brussels, was made the occasion of demonstrations that might have been accorded a con- quering hero.
 The night run from Paris ended at Adkinerke, just across the Franco Belgian frontier, where King Albert. Queen Elizabeth and a party of Bel gian officers waited to receive the president. King Albert wore his of ficers suit of khaki, and Queen Elizabe a simple white dress, with a dark blue motoring coat.
 Brand Whitlock, American minis ter to Belgium, accompanied the King and Queen and Mir. and Mrs. Wilson throughout the trip and ex- plained conditions along the way.
 Brussels, June 19.-The President and King Albert set out on their trip to Charleroi at o'clock. They were accompanied by M- Jaspar, the minis- ter of economies, and numerous suite.
 In stepping out of the palace this morning the President found several thousand persons assembled there who clamored for a speech. He respond a1 with his first public talk. which waa confined to Q few words. My friends" said the President, '.in coming here personally T have merely followed my own heart and the heart of the American people ltoward Belgium"

RIA PUTS OFF
 FLIGHT
Will Not Start Until Ger many Makes Decision on
 Peace Treaty.

London, June 19-The flight of the British dirigible R-34 to America is definitely postpon- ed until Germany decides what she intends to do regarding the peace terms.
 Should Germany refuse to sign, according to one officer, the flight of the R-34 will be eastward instead of westward. BIG ELIMP..2
 The airships which are now engaged in a demonstrative flight over Ger many will return to their bases to- night and remain there until the Ger man decision is announced.
 Bombs and machine guns were un- necessary in the present flight" said the officer. 'HShould they have to go eastward again, however, these things may be needed"
 The foregoing appears to dispose of reports in London last night that the R-33 and R-34 were armed for their eastward cruises.

The parade will be composed of service men. There will be no Home Guard. The civic organizations will not be in line. The object of the pa- rade is to let the home people see their sons in column, in uniform, just as they looked when they were in the service.
 The boys are not much in love with parades. They had all of that sort or thing they really wanted, but they could appreciate, and they did under stand, the desire of their people to see them and so they agreed to give MT. Flames and the Recognition week committee all the support that he can possibly desire.
 There will not only be a parade of service men, but there will be a parade of every service man who Is able to get into line. That is the way the boys feel about it. and that is the way it is going to be done.
 George NJ Flames opened the meet ing. telling the boys clearly what the purpose of Recognition Week is. He described the plans that have been formulated. Told how all the socie- ties and club rooms wills. keep open house; how medals will be distributed, which will bestow admission to the theatres and picture house: about the athletic games and competitions that are being arranged. In short he drew a good picture of the big time that will last for a whole week.

In the palace the President had met all the members of the Belgian cabinet and Cardinal Mercier. By calling first, the Cardinal offered a diplomatic route for the President to call upon him at Malines today.
 The general council of the Belgian labor party has addressed a message to President Wilson, in which it says:
 "The labor party repudiates any peace of violence and awaits the reign of a definite peace, assuring the sovereignty of labor and the triumph of President Wilson's principles"
 The address recalls the interven- ton of the United States in the war and adds:
 "If the working classes every where were masters of their destinies it is beyond doubt that the Presi- dents program would have com pletely triumphed at the peace con ference and Belgium would have ob- tained complete separations for the losses she suffered"

SILVER AND COPPER.

Silver and copper continue to be in demand in all the world markets. The need of silver has stimulated mining and prospect ing in every part of the globe where the white metal is found, and properties in all parts of the country have changed hands at fancy prices. It is predicted that before the year is ended many of the old silver properties of Santa Cruz Go. which produced enor- nous quantities of the white metal in the early days, will be opened up and again will contri- bute their share of this much needed metal and materially in- crease the world supply.
 The demand for copper conti- nues to increase and prices are slowly advancing to point where mining for the red metal will be profitable in this district. It is almost a certainty that the county's two great copper mines, the Three R and the Duquesne, as we'll as number of smaller properties will soon be operating in a profitabl manner and do- hating their share:toward replen- ishing the vast amount of cop per destroyed by the world war. -PatagOnian.

CHAMPION BRONCHO BUSTER.

Luther Swanner, of Spring Valley, won the worlds cham pionship for riding bucking hor- ses at Prescott on the Fourth of July. He captured first place in the first contest. He did not ride in the second contest. He rode again in the third contest, vim ing third place, and in the fourth contest he took first place, giv- ing him the championship. Be- sides winning $40 in cash, he will hold the handsome gold medal. with five bars until 1920, when he will have to put it up for contest. The bars carry the names of the winner of the championships for 1916, 1917, and 1918, and his own bar for 1919, besides the bar of preSenta- tion. The medal is diamond studded, and is a very valuable affair intrinsically. If he should win it a second time he may re- tain it permanently, but he must ride in 1920 no matter what part of the country the meet may be staged.
 It is understood that Swanner put in a number of years riding bucking horses with Buffalo Bills aggregation of rough riders of the world.-Coconino Sun.

These re- lies of a pre- historic race which at one time inhabited Arizona are quite common in this section of the state but seldom is one found in such a state, of preser- vation as the jar just discovered History can tell nothing concern ing this unknown race of people, and scientists disagree as to whether they belonged to the Az

THE STATE FAIR.

With the announcement by the Arizona State Fair Commission of an aggregate purse of $43, ,OOO for the winners of the harL ess events, the success of the turf program of tn years fairs is assured beyond the shadow of any doubts. The sum named is twiC @ the amount ever offered in stakes at the local track, and it is said to be the largest offer made this year for a single week. $ program anywhere in the United States.
 The liberality of the commis- sion in the matter of purse money is due directly to the efforts of J. c. Adams and others of the horse racing commission, who succeeded in interesting mining and other large interests of the state to make substantial guarantees
 Adams and Shirley Christy, secretary of the fair commission, are now in the east, interviewing race horse owners for the pur- pose of interesting them in the Arizona fair program. and it is expected that their efforts will result in obtaining the largest number of entries from eastern owners that has ever been made on the Arizona track.
 Tom E. Pollock of Flagstaff has been named as head of the racing committee this year, which in itself insures the success of this department. He will be assisted by L.. S. Gates of Ray, B. A. Packard of Doug las, Dr. c. A. Schrader of Tue son, Charles DeRyder of Doug las.
