The most remarkable memory l
ever encountered was that of John
Ringing, the circus man. Name
any country in any state and he
could name the county seat, the
names of the railroads running
through; chief industries and pro-
ducts. I happened to mention my
birthplace in Missouri, a town oil
a few thousand. Instantly he told
its location, what railroads ran
through and recalled that on a
certain date a wheel in a chariot
race rolled into the blues, the
general admission seats and in
jured two people. Out of curiosity,
| had the files of the newspapers
of IL years before looked up, and
he was correct.

NEW YORK, May 20-From time
immemorial sightleSs piano players
have been confined to the Blind
Toms who pound out their tinny
tunes along the Bowery, in the
Chinatown cellars and the Rou-
manian restaurants along Second
avenue. Most played by ear and
depended on pitched coins for a
living.
Consequently the appearance of
the faShionably attired blind Brit
ish pianist. Alec Templeton, in the
sWanky Rainbow Room offered a
/ new note in night club fare. Young,
personaole and joyous in his man
ner. he makes no concessions to
afflictiOn His April recital at Car
negie Hall brought out the biggest
audience of the season.
His act is ultra musical high
brow and yet so striking in its
novelty he appeals to all grades
of audiences. For instance he i'm
provises i'm the style of Bach, Bee
thoven. Brahms. Chopin or any
composer a member of the audience
requests. And USES only five notes.
AS he plays them, they sound
foreign and unrelated as TO key.
But he can with them produce the
most melodic technical and bril-
liant compositions one almost ever
heard. Another of his stunts is
to receive impressions of people
and produce musical portraits of
them. His patron is Walter Chrys-
ler jr.

Ten Acres Sown
To Watermelons
At States Farm

Say, fellow "Texcans," Superln-
tendent Martin Jacobson of the 100
acre farm at the Arizona State Pris-
on, at Florence, is putting in ten
acres in watermelons and ten acres
in cantaloupes, this year. This will
prove great temptation to "our'
fellow "Texicans," now residing In
this community, who as boys sole
everything they could get their
hands on before they were chased
out of the Lone Star State.
Superintendent Jacobson already
has the State farm in excellent con-
dition for the 1887 crops and the
garden there this year is one of the
largest in the history Of the farm.
Hundreds of tons of fertilizer
have been distributed over the lean
spots on the farm, and, with
weather conditions satisfact l. J
this year the farm under che
management of Superintendent
Jacobson is due to produce bumper
yields.

Rules Governing
Soil Depicting

Farmers cooperating in the agrl-
cultural conservation program for
1897 may plant up to twenty acres
of general soil depicting crops with
out deductions being made If the
general soil depicting base for the
farm is twenty acres or les.. q
cording to information released to
K. K Henness, county agricultural
agent, by the University of Arizona
agricultural extension service.
Under the 1886 program. deduc-
tions were made for each acre Of
general soil depicting crops plant
ed in excess of the general soil de-
pleting base for the farm. This
modification for 1887 has been male
rs a result of farmers recommenda-
tions, which stated that each farm
er should be encouraged to grow all
the feed and food crops on his own
farm which he will need for home
consumption.

Copper Jumps Up
TO Highest Level
Since April 1880

NEW YORK, Mar. S.-(AP)-A
General increase Of l IA cents a
pound in the domestic price Of cop
per was announced today by lead
ing producers, bringing the quota
,tion to the highest level since
April, 1880, at 16 IA cents.
! Copper for export was quoted at
1875 cents a pound delivered at
principal European ports. Tie
price at the end of last week was
16.40 cents.
Principal fabricators Of copper in
this country adjusted the prices Of
their product upward to correspond
with the increase in the value Of
the raw metal.
The new domestic price suppla1 is
the Is cent level which had bee in
effect since late February. Trade
circles saw in today's increase a
continued reflection of the scramble
for metal abroad, where spectators
have been buying briskly expecting
to realize large profits as the Bit
ish armaments program and other
warlike preparations abroad absor5s
copper and other metals.
