JOE SLAUGHTER, FAMOUS PROS
PECrOR PASSES AWAY IN CABIN

For third of a century Yavapai
county communities knew Joe Slaugh-
ter but little, for he passed his days
in the hills, where the gold are.
Now those hills have claimed him.
The body of the 6O-year-old miner
was found some miles from his cabin
near Haystack mountain, 35 miles
north Of Prescott. He had died of his
old malady, miners consumption. A
burro he had borrowed from a neigh
Dor went home and its owner told au-
thorities that they had better look
for Joe.
More than $500 in currency was
found on his body. Joe was reported
to own number of unusually rich
gold claims, the location of which he
kept secret for years. He has no
relatives known to the authorities.

SO THIS is CALIFORNIA:

There are 26 ways Of pronouncing
Los Angeles, all wrong.
The new state grew so fast that
they had to divide it into two parts,
called northern California and south
ern California. And they had to put
two deserts and a mountain range in
between them to keep them from
fighting.
The celestial-named city was made
the capital of the southern, and the
sanity named town to the north the
capital of the northern end of the
state.
In 55 law was passed forbidding
earthquakes inside the city limits.
There are more beautiful women in
Los Angeles than in any other city on
earth. But they all come from some
where else.

FORMER DAWSON NEWSPAPER ]

Following Is an excerpt of letter received by Arthur H. Dever, of the Dawson News, now sojourning in Texas, and forwarded to Dawson. from Eugence c. Stahl, for years con- nected with the News and other news papers of Dawson, but for the past15 years located at Miami, Florida:
 "As for chances in Miami, many millions have been made here almost overnight We had 5000 people when came here, and now we have better than 150,099, with every promise in the world of reaching 500,000 fnxles than five. years. think the oppor- tunity is just as good here now as years ago. except that it takes more money to get in. I believe, too, that a.person with a few thousand dollars can just sit tight and good things will fall in his lap sooner or later if he is nots asleep Every man, woman and child, almost, in Miami is loaded to the guards with property, and many are carrying more than they can com fortahly, with the result that now and then someone has togthrow something overheard in order tg save himself, and that is the time when a man with ready cash. in his mitt can pick up something worth while. put up $1 ,000 today as a binder on property that is costing me $45,000 cash and must be paid for December l, the closing date: 1t is a little piece of acreage 1 will subdivide, and expect to get better than $T00,0OO out of it before the date of closing l am gam bling $1 1000 on that possibility, and if my expectations are not realized I simply lose, and that is all there is to it.

with these stars running the fastest races of their lives.
 Grange provided sensational eli max in his college career by turning professional and almost immediately Jumping into class with Jack Demp- sey as money-maker. His move was the most conspicuous and important in the development of professional football, attracting not only widely in creased interest in this phase of the gridiron sport but being chiefly re- sponsible for stirring up a contro- versy within college ranks on ques- tons of ethics, commercialism and "over-emphasis" of the game.
 Pittsburgh's sensational overthrow of the WashingtontSenators m a pro longed struggle for the worlds base ball championship was the high spot of the diamond season and one of the outstanding examples of team victory recorded in she year. Another was the sixth straight triumph of United States Davis Cup forces over a rec ord-breaking field of twenty-five countries in the international tennis competition, which saw France's young stars, Lacoste and Borotra,
 making gallant but unsuccessful bid for honors in the Challenge Round at Philadelphia.
 Several important championships changed hands, these including the baseball victory of Pittsburgh over Washington. Dartmouth displaced ltotre Dame as the nationally recog- 0ized college football titbe-holder.
 ,outhern California also took the col ,age tEack and field crown from Yale,
 hile lthe New York A. C. lifted na- .ional club honors in the same sport from the Illinois A. c. The Navy dis placed Washington as intercollegiate. crew title-holders. Macfarlane de prived Cyril Walker of the open golf title, and Miss Gollett replaced Mrs. Hurd as women's champion.
 On the other hand, Tilden, Miss Wills, Bobby Jones, Hornsby and Walter Hagen retained honors they had held m their respective special ties th eseason before, while the U. s. Davis Cup team and British@Women's Wightman Cup squad defended tennis trophies they held in 1924
 Most of the boxing titleholders also clung to their crowns, although in the case of Jack Dempsey, the heavy weight champion, the only Sign of ac- tivity was the signing of articles for 1926 match with Harry Wills, and theserhave since been somewhat dis credited.

YEAR 1925. WITN PISSED CON TlNUED GROWTH OF POP
 UEAR INTEREST IN SPORTS

New Nork.-Though marked by 8 -eturn to somewhat normal pace in fhe scope of athletic competition, by comparison with the unusual activity of the previous two annual cam pa!gns, the year 1925 witnessed con tinued growth of popular interest, particularly in football, baseball. foot ball and track, besides an unusual epidemic in individually brilliant per formances and significant trend in the development of professional sports
 Following year of sensational conquest abroad on Olympic battle fields. 1t was natural reaction te have the major contests of 1925 con ceutrate on native grounds. There vas sufficient international competi- tiop to add spice to the campaign, and hele the United States carried away the bulk of honors in spite of an ap parent renaissance in the caliber of British opposition, butsth conests of chief interest were staged on home soil.
 In this home-bred panorama of ac- tiyity, however, one invader of un- usual note, Paavo Nurmi, the phan- tom runner of Finland, stood out to challenge Red Grange. the Galloping Ghost of football, for the most spec tacular individual honors of the year. These two occupied the major portion of the spotlight, even in a season which saw. Big Bill" Tilden carrying the tennis heights, for the sxth straight year; Bobby Jones capturing the amateur golf crown for the sec ond season in a row after also com ing close to winning the national opers title in. desperate fight with Willie Macfarlane; Helen Wills leading women's tennis ranks for the third successive time; Rogers Hornsby smashing msjor league batting rec ords AS he led the, National League for the sixth straight year; and; Swede Oberlander leading Dartmouth, to "a national football championship with the greatest forward passing ex- hibition in the history of the gFidiron. sport
 WheB ali these sensational feasss and starss' have passed in review, however, it. remains for wo'peealiar Iy paralle performances of Nurmi and Grange to produce the greatest thrills of 1925 from tffe viewpoint of indi- vidual brilliance. Nothing else on the calendar quite matched the startling running of Nurmi or his first indoor performance ina Americas at Madison Square Garden, where he shattered three worlds records and beat the pick of his American rivals in two races, or the startling exhibition of Grange in putting to rout q hitherto unbeaten Pennsylvania eleven OF Franklin Field with as great dem onstration of broken field running as any gridirUn ever. witnessed.
 These two performances were all the more noteworthy because they were made under handicaps and against heavy odds. Grange made football history on a. muddy field against one of the East's greatest de- fenSive teams and before crowd which came therein q skeptical mood and left marveling at his prowess.
 Similarly, Nurmi, competing on an ndpor track for the first time and ln an unfamiliar setting, cleared these barriers and beat the best this country could produce in the way of competition. He conquered Joie Ray, FisiR4l lRait4lae Lloyd Hahn and others,
