The press of Arizona, commenting
on the legislative term closed, calls
the session and those who took part
in it by very uncomplimentary terms.

DISCOVERY OF RICH LEAD AND
SILVER ORE AT PARKER

Parker news says a rich discov-
cry of lead and silver ore was re-
Gently made by Ollie Byrnes and
Frank Gibbons of this place, at a
point fourteen miles east of Clara
Siding, on the Swansea railroad, in
Santa Maria mining district, forty
miles east of Parker. Seven claims
have been located by them, the veins
averaging in width from four inches
to two feet
A recent asasy showed that the
ore carried 291a per cent in lead
and 115 ounces of silver to the ton.
That is the average but the smaller
veins show much higher values
Development work is being carried
on by tunneling, of which they have
about fifty feet at present. Large
quantities of ore will be taken out as
soon as possible and shipped to Ell
Paso, where the nearest smelter is
located.
Jack Quick and Charles Winters,
who have similar mines in the same
district, have bonded their properties
to Los Angeles parties who already
have quite a force of men at work
developing the same.
More Water for Parker
A new water we'll is being bored
for the Parker Water Trust on the
lot near it's present works to meet
the increased demand for water
This we'll will be sunk about 100 feet
and when finished it is believed the
supply of water for the town will at
least be doubled.
James Gillen, head of the Trust,
when asked by the Sun correspondent
if he did not believe that prohibition
was in a great measure responsible
for this increased demand for water,
evaded the question by simply quoting
the following old-time adage, leaving
his questioner to draw his own con
clusions: "Tis an i'll wind that
blows nobody good"

The annual exhibit Of scientific work
Of the Carnegie Institution of Wash
anKton, which had been on view in
the administration building, Sixteenth

closed last night with a special featur-
ing of physical researches. About
$500 persons viewed the exhibit,
which covered a wide range of scien-
tif1c achievements.
In the physical section of the eX-
hibition special demonstrations were
conducted by the geophysical labora-
tory, the department of terrestrial
magnetism, the Mount Wilson OBJ
servatory and the Mount Wilson Lab
oratory, all departments of the Car
negte Institution.
Two of the most interesting ex-
hibits were contributed by the Mount
Wilson Observatory and Laboratory.
The observatory had on view a Mich
lelson interferometer. the instrument
which has permitted the astronomer
In tho last year to measure accurate
" the dameters of stars that had
previously been inaccessible.
A vacuum furnace was contributed
by the laboratory. In this furnace,
where tremendous heats are attain
able and temDeratures of around
$500 degrees Fahrenheit are looked
upon as comparatively mild, the ply
sicist can vaporiZe different metals
and produce syntheticallv the various
forms of celestial phenomenon. BY
this means he can check the astrono-
mer's observations.
The Geophysical Laboratory demon
strated with elaborate apparatus the
qualities of some bodies to absorb
heat moro rapidly than others, even
though both obtain their heat from
exactly the same temperatures, under
identical conditions and for the same

The statue of the frog is something
more than a statue, it is also an in

The Navajo Indian
And His Language
By Chas. p. Mason

The mental processes of the Indian
tribes of the American Southwest s
arid plains are so different from their
new white neighbors that in originat-
ing words and phrases, or in express
| ing the meaning of words, or the dis
| tinction between the shades of mean
ing of certain phraseology, there
sometimes seems to be no common
ground or mutual understanding for
a starting point for the translation
| from one language to the other.
The inhabitants of the inaccessible
portions Of the 5000, 0,000-acre reserva-
ton allotted to the tribe of Navajos
use the ancient language of that tribe,
which is entirely spoken, never a
written language. Those of the tribe
who live near white settlements and
government schools have been COM
PEELED to add to their language the
names of objects possessed and used
by the whites in their everyday life.
These additions to the Navajo tongue
are generally descriptions in many
syllables of the thing spoken Of
A Navajo thinks, not of a thing
alone, but of it's relation to himself
or other person. Medicine, in Navajo,
is "that which makes us WE'LL" and
doctor is "he who makes that which
makes us we'll" The Creator is "He
who made u.s." (a-ni-hi-la-D but the
white mans God was indescribable,
apparently, for the word God" has
been adopted into the language of the
tribe. The Bible, however, was de-
scribed rather than named and is call
ed God d-bi-zad," which, translated lit
orally means "The white mans God
His word
Navajos do not name thing and
then call that word a noun, or name
an action and designate that word as
a verb That is one of the distinc-
tions that is difficult to understand
and harder to express. More than
fourteen ways aroused to express the
action of giving, depending upon the
nature of the thing given, and the
word expressing the action is combin-
ed with the name of the thing given.
To give a small thing is expressed
differently from giving a large thing.
To give something soft different
word is used than if the thing given
is hard. To give something in a
package like coffee is different from
giving something loose and cumber-
some as hay or wood.
In English one expresses the act
of eating anything by the verb ito
eat," but in Navajo is depends upon
what is being eaten as to how it is
expressed, and every kind of eatable
requires an individual verb to make
known that something is being, has
been or will be eaten.
Most of the Navajo's words denot-
ing action can be described as "class"
verbs as the two above illustrate.
In Navajo there are three numbers,
