Riding at a rate of 20 miles an hour Bill Brown, the demon mes senger boy of the Western Union won the Journal-Miner's six-mile bicycle race from the top of Fire Box hill to the fair grounds, held yester- day afternoon. Bill covered the dis tance in 19 minutes, 40 seconds, and travelled. so fast that the car carry ing the officials never did catch up to him.
 Bob Gonzales was primed to give Bill the race of his life. Indeed he was leading by 100 yards when the two-mile post was past, but pune ture killed off his chances of carry ing not only first prize but every other. A flat tire also put Benny Togo out of the race, though he was in last place when the accident hap pened
 Fortino Lopez lost head-on col lision with an automobile about two miles from the finish. He got bruised badly but hobbled to the south gate of the fair grounds and finished on foot, using his bike as a crutch. The summaries:

in the aftermath of war is the time for steadfastness to the principles which the great declaration of '76 gave emphasis.
 Tt is my hope that you will keep in mind the, reason for the Fourth of July. That we will observe the day to drink in the spirit which gave rise to the day, and declare our ap- preciation of the government which has preserved through the years our heritage, and not devote the day all together to pleasure. Let us take that spirit with us, and learn how to live and be American citizens"

RETURN OF SPIRIT
 OF '76 IS. NEEDED
 SAYS GOVERNOR

Pleading for the return of the spirit of '76 in the observance of the
 Fourth of July by young and old, native and foreign born, Governor Thomas E. Campbell drew hearty expressions of approval from an aud fence of 2,000 on the plaza yesterday morning when in the course of his ad- dress he said that although rumor that violence might seek immediate vengeance against the slayer of Undersheriff Ed F. Bowers came to the governors office, he was not worried even for moment that an illegal act might occur in Prescott, his home, the place where the first capitol building yet stands as a monument to the will of the people for orderly process of carrying out their expressed will.
 Following a parade of veterans of the wars of the United States, those of the civil war leading, then those who saw service in the Spanish American war, ex-service men of the world war completing the line, ap- exercises in honor of the nations birthday were held on the north section of the court house square.

She succeeded herself. as she had been temporary president for the past year. R. E. Morrison was unanimously elected vice-presi- dent. Mrs. Mary Ford Patton, the temporary secretary, was greatly pleased to turn over the honor and the work of the secretarial job to Joe Campbell, who was unanimously elected. Col. James H. McClintock, state historian, was made historical secretary. E. J. F. Horne was elect ed treasurer, and all the members present, 3l ill number, decorated the center of the table with an iron plunk to be turned over to said of ficial. MT. Horne was not present. but some of the members thought he would not refuse the handling of the coin
 In order to become a member of the society, person must have re- sided in the state for a period of at least 25 years. Those who have been here 25 years at any date in the fu- ture may become members at that time, this proviso being made in order to perpetuate the life of the society.

He emphasized the fact that the tenderfoot has a hungering and thirsting for the thrilling events of Arizona's history. He said that in the years to come the tenderfoot of today will be the pioneer of that time, and that he looked forward to the society as being one that would. do future generations much good. Much inspiration, he said, can be gathered from history to aid the rising generations to better perform their part in the making of history during their own time.
 A telegram of sympathy and good wishes was ordered sent to Judge Wells, who has been present at every meeting prior to that of last night It was pointed out that he was sick i'll California and waiting for a favor able time to have an operation done.

Sleepy Sickness.

Sleepy sickness is quite different
disease from the somewhat similarly
named, but far more deadly, sleeping
sickness, which is tropical disease.
Sleepy sickness was first noticed in
England in 1918. There is little doubt
that the cause of this mysterious COM
plant is a microbe. The microbes con-
centrate their attack on the brain,
causing lethargy and facial paralysis.

motionless head and expressionless
face, like mask, reminding one of the
effigy on tomb. Doctors are not yet
definitely agreed as to whether the hic-
cough epidemic and the sleepy sickness
are different diseases, or whether the
one is merely symptom of the other.
Probably the latter view is the correct
one, seeing that violent and prolonged
hiccoughs were noticed in connection
with the outbreak of sleepy sickness
that ravaged Vienna in the early part
of last year.

MEXICO HAS DIAMOND FIELD
Precious Stones Said to Exist In GUAM
titles That Will Make Their Min
ing Profitable.

Encouragement will be offered by the
Mexican government for the develop
ment of the diamond field in the state
of Guerro by private capital, it is au-
thoritatively announced. The existence
of diamonds in mountainous district
of that southern state has long been
known, but the remoteness of the local
ity and the difficulty of getting in and
out of the district have heretofore pre-
vented anything being done toward
mining the gems.
1t was more than fifty years ago that
the discovery of diamonds there was
made by an officer of the Mexican
army. A collection of the diamonds
was taken to the City of Mexico and
after being cut they found their way
into the channels of commerce. Efforts
to relocate the diamond field proved fu-
tile and 1t was not until many years
later that a mining prospector came
upon the formation in which the dia-
monds were found. He collected a
large number of them in the rough and
took them back to the capital, where
they were placed on exhibition. Moth
ing was done, however, toward the de
vel0pment of the field
Not long ago the department Of COM
merce and industry of the Mexican gov
eminent sent an expedition in charge
of Antonio Lopez, an engineer, to the
locality. Mr.. Lopez reported that his
research had been entirely successful.
Among the diamonds he brought back
with him was one of enormous size in
the rough which he turned over to the
department Of commerce and industry.
He made report to the effect that dia-
monds in large quantities are to be
found and that the mining can be done
at comparatively little cost.

THROUGH WITH TIGHT SHOES
Experience That Young Woman Had

of the downtown restaurants for din
ner. She wished to make good i'm
preston, SO she stopped at the shoe
shining establishment to have her
shoes polished, which shoes, by the
way. were little too small and
pinched considerably.
They pinched even worse after they
were seated at the table, and the
young woman decided to do very
daring thing. So, carefully, she man.
aged to slip her hand down to her foot,
loosen the shoe and slip it off her foot.
Just as that performance was ended
the waiter arrived with the dinner and
she Strengthened up to get ready for IT..
She reached for her napkin and hor-
rorsl The inside of her hand was as
black as could be. The shoe polish
had not yet dried. Worse and worse !!
Her friend noticed her hand.
There was nothing to do but explain
the situation. which she did in very
amusing way. But she vows steadily
that she will never again wear tight
shoes when going out to dinner.--Indi-

became SO much interested in the
work that a large sum was realized,
part of which was turned into the

part was spent in giving the work
ers some diversion. The business is

The Gegenschein, the mysterious
midnight glow in the sky opposite the
sun, is not constant in form. Prof. f.,

it appears as roundish diffused mass
of noticeable light, sometimes 40 de-
grees or so degrees or even more In
diameter. At no other point in its
path is it so large. But In October IT
becomes smaller and elongated, a
change believed to be due to the

Don't Nenlect the Eyes.

A child's eyes should be examined
by n good oculist, at the age Of four
years and again at seven-these are
very important ages. The child may
apparently see quite well, but there
may be chance that he has slight
astigmatism which can only be de-
tected by the oculist. In such case
glasses should be provided at once,
and If worn as soon as needed will
probably rectify the trouble IA a year
or two.
