Midgley, of the board of supervisors declares that the story of the dyna- hitting of 300 blind suckers and trout out of the bed of the Dry Beaver, is true.
 It occurred on the Mcintyre ranch near Bill Backs Montezuma We'll The critters were having to journey long way to water and the hands thought they might be able to gouge a little spring out of the bed of the creek where there has always been little seepage. This seepage, is was said, was the only moisture in the bed of the creek for miles. The diggers encountered rock and they took to dy- namite. A blast was touched off which blew out hole about s by 10 feet and with the debris, perfect pocket of fish. There were suckers and trout and they were blind. Some reached the length of ten inches.
 It is the theory, according to Midg- ley, that the fish were gradually holed up in some sort of an underground pool by the declining waters of the creek, and when the beds surface be- came utterly dry, enough fish were left below to make a little colony. For years, perhaps hundreds of years, the fish remained there, propagating slow ly and gradually losing the use of their eyes, but possibly acquiring some compensating sense in its place. ..
 Whether or not the prospectors will attempt to mine the creek bed for sea food, is not announced. The probabil- ities are, however, that the supply is limited and that the stringer will not bear expensive development.-Prescott Journal Miner.

Many of the models have the trou- sers and the waists om contrasting materials, wash waists of cloth, cor duroy of belt trousers of the button on sort, but they are not being made universally.
 There's little change in the style of hats and caps for boys, with the ex- ception that the "rah, rah" effect is almost off the market. The hats are plainer than heretofore with the bowl shapes and middy styles in the fore ground. There will be very little trim ming.
 For the older boy the Fedora and telescopic crush hats will be favored. Wool patterned hats also will be worn as muchlas ever.
 There has been no marked innova- tions in shoes, shirts, neckwear and other furnishings--at least not of suf- ficient consequence to devote much space to the changes.

FISH MINE FOUND ON
 DRY BEAVER CREEK

They mine copper by tearing off the side of mountain to get at the ore and they salt stock by driving them up cliff, which is largely so- dium chloride and they have demo- crats and other curiosities in that in teresting region between the Black Hills and the Mogollon rim, but the curiousest thing (if true) is blasting for fish.

MAIL ORDER SOCKS

Jones sent $2 to a concern that ad- vertised to send by mail for that sun five pairs of socks. When they ar rived he looked them over and then wrote to the senders:
 Socks received. The patterns are vile. l wouldn't be seen in the streets with them on."
 Back came the answer: "What are you kicking about?" Didn't we adver- tise that you wouldn't wear them out? ?"

WHAT MADE PAW WILD

George, you must not come into the house tonight" said Maud (who had answered the door bell herself). If you love me, darling, fly at once and do not let my father discover your presence"
 Replied George (tragically): "Oh, Maud, my darling! What serpent has entered our Eden? Speak, girl, speak!"
 "Father has received the gas bill"

ANOTHER FISH STORY

A very intoxicated man was wab- bling along the street in city one night when he came to fish market with large wooden fish hanging out. He immediately knocked on the door and shouted until the proprietor, who lived overhead, opened the window and angrily asked what was the trou- ble. Shay, mister, pull in; you got a bite" was the answer.

SUFFICIENT PROTECTION

Little Betty had been greatly inter ested in watching the men in her grandfather's orchard putting bands round the fruit trees and asked many questions.
 Some weeks later, when in the city with her mother, she noticed gentle man with mourning band round his left sleeve.

favor is greatly increased with each season in America.
 The styles in caps remain practical ly the same as last year. In fact there has been no radical departure in de- sign for the last three years. The one-piece cap is liked considerably more than the five or six piece head covering, while the golf styles prob- ably will be worn a great deal more than the full crown effects of two years ago.
