Hope to Reclaim Burning Mine.

The fire which for more than twenty
years has burned IN the upper levels
of the United Verde copper mine, near
Jerome, Ariz., is about to be elm
mated by drastic process Of lowering
the entire surface Of the property to a
4OO-foot level. All attempts to extin.
guish the fire have failed.
It is the general opinion that the
hre was started by slip in the rock
producing sufficient friction heat to
ignite the ores rich in sulphur. 1t has
burned Its way through veins Of cop.
per, gold and sulphur.
The process Of suppressing the fire
involves the removal Of 100000 Gu.
bic yards of material. The area to be
evacuated is roughly estimated at 400
by 800 feet. Monster steam shovels
are to be employed in the work.
1t is expected that the task of re-
moving the entire top of the mine and
to extinguish the fire will occupy sew
eral years.

Found sponges lndIsestible.

Boswell, Lake Merritt's popcorn
pelican, died this morning when he
mistook a sponge for his favorite diet
and choked to death, reports IN Oak
land (Cal) correspondent.
Boswell has been an attraction at
the lake for several months. He had
the freedom Of the lawns and wan
dered about the lake ut will. Visitors
discovered that he liked candied pop
corn and bought it for him by the
bagful. Gradually Boswell became a
popcorn addict and eschewed nearly
every other form Of food.
This morning Boswell crossed Grand
avenue to gasoline service station.
A sponge lay invitingly on the ground
where some automobilist had dropped
It after washing his machine. The
sponge looked to Boswell like mo-
lasses popcorn. With grin Of an
ticipation he gulped it down. Ten
minutes later he was q dead bird.

play the preiudces of racial and industrial groups

UNCLE WIGGILY AND THE

(By Howard II. Garis.)

Once upon a time, as Uncle wig
silly was hopping through the
woods, thinking perhaps he might
have a funny adventure, he heard
the noise of some one crying.

oh, dear! oh, dear!' cried the
voice.

bunny gentleman. IF ever ! heard
the sound of trouble this is it! I'm

So the bunny rabbit gentleman
peeked around the corner of the
mulberry bush and there, sitting on
the soft end of a moss covered
stump, he saw Jillie Longtail, the
little mousie girl. And Jillie was
CRYING tears out Of her eyes, and
they were running down the front
of her dress, and the tip of her
tail would have been all wet eX-

in a double bow knot, Jillie did.

little mousie girl! What IS the mat

out from in under the sassafras
tree, which had oranges growing
on the grape vine part,
"Oh, | am in such sadness!

"Truly it does seem So" agreed
Uncle Wiggily. But what is the
trouble? Sometimes, when you
fell what's the matter, it doesn't
seem half so bad. What is it, jill
lie, my dear little mousie girl"
and Uncle Wiggily wiped away
some of her tears on his coat-talls.

IoIlie has one, and so have Johnnie
and Billy Bushytail, the squirrels,
but nv mother said she thought

time.
