PRESCOTT PREPARED FOR CARE VISITORS

Special to the "Mohave County
 Miner" by G. M. Sparkes)
 Prescott is we'll prepared to care pr the many visitors who will go to he Northern Arizona State Fair, which will be held Thursday, Friday Rnd Saturday, October 14th, 18th and l6th. The entertainment features hre such as should attract the largest crowd ever attendant upon this fair. The educational inspirations to be gathered at this fair, are worth the journey of hundreds of miles. Low Excursion rates will be in effect from all points in Northern Arizona. Thousands of dollars will be distrib- uted in prize money for exhibits. The racing program at the grounds is attracting horsemen from Colorado, New Mexico, Utah and all sections of Arizona. The fastest program to be run at this fair will mark the 1920 fair. Ford automobile races each day will give plenty of fun and eX- citement for those desiring the more strenuous lines of sport.
 Under the auspices of the American Federation of Art, a collection of forty-three masterpieces will be ex- hibited by the Art Department. This collection has recently been shown at Stamford University and at many of the larger institutions of learning on the Pacific Coast. The Northern Arizona State Fair Association in presenting this collection to the visit ors of the fair, believes it is render ing tangible and helpful service n spreading the knowledge of art to the residents of Northern Arizona, which are remote from art centers. The collection is valued at $10O,OOO.
 Copies of the prize list and rules, containing complete information as to the classes of xhibits, prizes to be awarded, and program can be had free by addressing the Association at Prescott. Remember the three big days and make it point to be pres ent,

NEWSPAPER NOTORIETl

That a newspaper may give man more notoriety than he is entitled to is evidenced by report that was giv- en out that w. B. Hagen, manager of a natatorium at Ajo, Pima county, had discovered an alcohol mine. This mine is composed of heavy rock out, crop that oozes alchol and from all over the country Hagen is deluged with orders for samples of his goods. So fast are these letters of inquiry and orders coming in that he Will soon have to employ group of stem ographers to properly make answer to them. A booze mine would De worth while, if the government would classify it under the head of miner al", so that he could properly mine or pump the product into the proper channels. He might use it to irrl- gate a melon patch and let the other fellows "cut the melon"

SERBS LEARN TO CAN

There is splendid opportunity for some enterprising Americans to es- tablish canning factories in Serbia and teach the Serbs the process of canning and preserving as it is done in this country. For this is an in- dustry which until last summer the Serbians knew nothing about.
 American Red Cross workers, while in Serbia, taught the housewives to preserve fruit and vegetables. The scope of this work was limited by the lack of cans and jars, but in spite of the scarcity of containers many Ser bian menus will boast green peas, beans, tomatoes, asparagus and can ned fruits with their bread and meat next winter. And once having tasted such delicacies out of season, there will in the future be a ready market for them.
 The only fruit which the Serbs have made any attempt to preserve heretofore have been the plums, great quantities of which are grown and eX- ported. These are known as Bosian prunes and are noted for their excel lence. A very good syrup called "pekmez" is made from these prunes and before the war great quantities of it were shipped all over the world especially to Austria and Germany.

stone hotel in B street, Virginia City, called the Virginia House. He then began dealing in mining stocks and soon lost everything. Under the guidance of spirits-he was Spirit ualist-he finally began running a tunnel into a bald and barren granite spur of the Sierras, near Genoa, in Douglas county, expecting to strike a richer vein than the Comstock. However, the spirits talked so much to him about caverns of gold and sil- versthat he became insane and was sent to a private asylum at Wood- bridge, California, where he soon died.
 The men who made millions were those who came after the mines had been pretty well prospered, as Mac kay, Fair, Sharon, Jones and others.
 "Blue Stuff" Worth $6,3S6 Ton
 The first knowledge gained of the value of the pernicious "blue stuff'' that bothered the Gold Canyon placer miners came from Nevada City, Calf. where a curious rancher had taken some samples for assay. The "blue stuff' was rich in silver and gold. The sample is said to have assayed $1,595 in gold and $4,791 in silver. It is related that Judge James Walsh and Joe Woodworth, prominent resi- dents of Nevada City, upon learning of the fabulous assay, started for the new find horseback before daybreak Says Shinn, "they could not have travelled faster if score of vigilantes had been on their track" Walsh is

So Confusing

Wealth had carried Mrs. Nurich in to circles of which she had hardly dared even to dream.
 At a dinner party she was being shown the glories of an ancestral mansion by her titled hostess, and as they passed along a corridor the lat ter lady paused before marble bust.
 "'Oose that of ?" asked Mrs. Nurch with an air of great interest.
 "That is Marcus Aurelius," replied her hostess.
 "Oh! Is it? exclaimed Mrs. Nu- rich. "But I wish you'd tell me-" she went on confidently, "wether it's the old Marquis or the new one: l do get 'em mixed up so."-Answers. (London)

A great discovery of copper is claimed by Spokane men in the main Olympic range in Washington. The deposit is said to have enormous pos abilities, the body being 100 feet wide and carries values of two or 1-2 pel cent. A company has been organized composed of prominent people and a tunnel is to be started on the mas sive ore body that will reach a depth of about 5000 feet under the outcrcp The mine is we'll situated in the wood ed country and the development should be inexpensive.

ROMANCE OF
 THE COMSTOCK (Continued from Page p

September, 1870, while encamped near Bozeman, Montana, en route to prospect in the Big Horn country, he committed suicide, blowing out his brains with his six-shooter.
 Patrick Mclaughlin sold his in- terest in the Ophir (the discovery claim) for $3.500, which sum he soon lost, and he then worked as a cook at the Green mine, in the southern part of California, for time. He finally died while wandering from place to place and working at odd jobs, gen, erally as cook.
 Peter O'Riley held his interest un- til it brought him about $50,000, a part of which he received in the shape of dividends. He erected a

WOULD CHANGE DATE ANNUAL
 WORK

Senator Henderson of Nevada will introduce a bill at the short session of congress changing the date at which time the annual assessment work expires from the S1st of Dec ember to the 30th of June. This change would be better for the mine owner, as it would make it possible to go into the mountains during the warm months to do work, and reloca- tion could be made readily outside of the hot desert spots on the first days of July. This change has been sug- gested by many miners and it is more than probable that fiscal year will be agreed upon that will bring the last day in which to do the annua! work in the good old summer time.

WASTED ENERGY or THE SUN
Only a Minute Fraction Of Its Tremen-
dous Heat Strikes the Earth and
Becomes Useful.

A depression on the energy Of the
past sun may be permitted. All that
the earth has caught, for all the mil
lions Of years that 1t has existed, is
the merest fraction of what the sun
has radiated in the same time, accord
Ing to a lecture by Sir Oliver Lodge,
reported in the Scientific American.
The earth to the sun is like print
er's full stop at distance Of ten feet
from halfpenny. Some Of the radla-
tion from a globe one inch In diameter
falls on the spot one one-hundredth
inch in diameter ten feet away, but
that little speck only catches the hun
dred and fifty millionth part of the
whole. What has become Of the rest
Of the solar energy? 1t must still be
careerlng through space. The ether is
perfectly transparent and only when 1t
encounters matter viii the radiation
be mOpped up and turned into heat.
Not our sun only, but all the mil
lions Of other suns, have likewise been
always pouring out radiation into
space. Is there any hope Of catching
and utilizing III trow not. In spite
Of all this constant flood Of energy
space is coldi very near absolute zero.
The reservoir is so enormous that all
these taps, running for ages, have
made no impression on It. have not

HISTORY REVEALED BY NAMES
BY Them II Is Possible to Ascertain
What Races Have Inhabited
Different Districts.

In the earliest days Of the human
family, all known persons, places and
groups Of human beings must have
had names by which they were recog-
nized.
The study Of these names and their
survival in civilization enables us Of
ten to ascertain what races inhabited
districts now peopled by those Of en-
tirely different speech.
The names Of mountains and rivers
In many parts Of England, for In
stance, are Celtic.
Ancient local names are, as a rule,
purely descriptive. A river is called
by some word which merely signifies
"the water" mountain may have
a name which means 'the peak" "the
CASTLE" "the point"
English place names generally state
some simple fact, and often denote
no more than property; the name Of
q town or hamlet being formed by
adding "ton" or "ham" to the name
of some early landholder.
Quite often a bit of even half-hu-
morous description will survive in
such name, as when stony, starved
and weedy district is called Starvacre.

ParIsIan Mementoes Of NapoIeon.

The statue of Henri Of Navarro on
the Pont Neuf, the oldest bridge in
Paris, Is memento of Napoleon, for
1t was cast from the bronze of the en-
peror's statue which was torn from
the top of the Vendome column In
1914. This column was erected to
honor the victories of the great SOL
dler, his martial deeds being depicted
in a spiral strip which covers the sur
face Of the pillar. His figure, In the
robes of a Roman emperor, has since
been placed at the top. The Exchange
bridge was erected by Napoleon and
still bears his monogram, the arches.
The famous coionnades Of the Louvre
district are his work. He designed
them In memory of his native Corsica,
where that type of architecture is
common.
