NATIVE SONS AT FAIR Will Hold Meeting at San Diego During Exposition San Diego, May 6.—Gov. Hunt of Arizona has just appointed the Arizona-San Diego exposition commission with the following as members: J. R. Kerr, real estate broker of Yuma; C. H. Akers, publisher of the Gazette at Phoenix; W. H. Burbage, a banker and lawyer of Winslow; P. C. Merrill, merchant and farmer of Pima, and H. C. Buemler, a lawyer of Douglas. The commission will hold a meeting in Phoenix at an early date and will likely visit San Diego in June to look over the grounds and make plans for Arizona's indoor and outdoor exhibit which promises to be one of the finest and largest state exhibits at the exposition. The appointment of this commission was in accordance with a resolution passed by the Arizona legislature, following the visit to Phoenix of Winfield Hogaboom, of the department of publicity; John A. Fox, commissioner at large, and L. E. Barrows, a director, of the exposition. A committee of the officers of the San Diego exposition will meet with the Southern California counties exposition commission in Los Angeles at the regular meeting which takes place May 9, to start plans for the Southern California building and exhibition in San Diego. As this building and the exhibits it will house will be of the greatest importance to California, the results of the session will be awaited eagerly. The exposition commission of the eight Southern California counties have already been in San Diego and selected a site for their exhibit. That the biggest organization in California, the grand parlor of the Native Sons of the Golden West will the governor inclined to commit himself: "Do not do it. It may hurt you." Governor Johnson immediately turned on his heel in the imperious manner he affects and left the women standing without an explanation. This exposes the attitude of Johnson and his machine toward woman suffrage in California. They were not only opposed to it, but they would not give the advocates of the amendment a respectful hearing. Yet they have the audacity in this campaign to appeal to the women for their votes for the man who has intimated, where he has not openly spoken, that women are not competent to participate in the government of their country. If the Johnsons and Roosevelts had their way the women of California would not have the franchise today, and it is not likely that that portion of California's citizens recently enfranchised will support the organization that opposed it so strongly two years ago. The events of the present campaign prove that the women of California have not lost all sense of decency and independence, and a strong rebuke to Johnson and Roosevelt doubtless will be administered at the polls May 14. COPPER OUTPUT BREAKS RECORD More Than One Billion Pounds Produced Last Year The total smelter production of copper from ores mined in the United States in 1911 was 1,097,232,749 lbs. This is the largest production in the history of the industry and compares favorably with the output of 1,080,159,509 pounds for 1910. Arizona again heads the list of copper producing states with a production of 303,202,532 pounds, the lowest production ever made by the governor inclined to commit himself: "Do not do it. It may hurt you." Governor Johnson immediately turned on his heel in the imperious manner he affects and left the women standing without an explanation. This exposes the attitude of Johnson and his machine toward woman suffrage in California. They were not only opposed to it, but they would not give the advocates of the amendment a respectful hearing.

AGAINST THE TILLERS OF THE SOIL VITATALLY CONCERNED AS OF THE PRESIDENTIAL COURTIFIF as it applies to many thousands of Californians who wish to exercise franchise intelligentlyries May 14, want to odore Roosevelt stand lemons, and other soil subject to tariff. Roosevelt has decided sympathy with the verson-Heney-Kent commensals but little endures many thousand state who would like probable fate of invirus and deciduous frost olive orchards and suffer Roosevelt's admiration of the most prominent in California expressment that their leaders induced to express his item of the tariff. It was confidently Roosevelt would gain measure of his support districts, but even guine partisans of him anticipate an overwhelming from the sugar owners of lemonive orchards, and thie in sheep raising. The theory of gov't people, which the tillers is the issue contains no information this kind. It makes me every day problem livelihood, a subjectthe attention of more nine-tenths of their population thereof important industry cause of the combo- Southern California building and exhibition in San Diego. As this building and the exhibits it will house will be of the greatest importance to California, the results of the session will be awaited eagerly. The exposition commission of the eight Southern California counties have already been in San Diego and selected a site for their exhibit. That the biggest organization in California, the grand parlor of the Native Sons of the Golden West will not only participate in the San Diego exposition to be held in San Diego in 1915 but will in all likelihood hold its meeting here in 1914, is the good news brought from Fresno by a representative of the exposition who went to Fresno representing nearly every organization in San Diego. The Native Sons gave him a royal welcome and contrary to all traditions took a recess of a half hour or more to hear San Diego's message of welcome and cheer. A committee of the grand officers will be invited to visit San Diego in the near future to go over the plans regarding the scope and character of the participation by the grand parlor in the exposition. The Native Sons intend to make the exhibit the finest historical feature ever presented in California. It will cover the main incidents in California's history for the past four hundred years divided in four epochs: I, Balboa's discovery of the Pacific ocean in 1513; II, the discovery of California in 1542; III, the foundation of the mission in 1769, and IV, the admission of California to the union in 1850. THE COLONEL ON WOMAN SUFFRAGE The Johnson machine in California, which is making Colonel Roosevelt's fight in this state, appeals to the women to support the colonel's candidacy. Nothing could be more brazen and nothing should be more strongly resented by the women, who now have the elective franchise, at the presidential primary May 14. Whether the women of California want President Taft or not, they surely cannot look with favor on Colonel Roosevelt and the Johnson machine, which is the only sponsor the colonel has in this state. Roosevelt is hot and cold on the question of woman's suffrage as he is on the recall. In California, since the franchise has been granted to women, he would probably favor it, while in New York, where there is not the remotest possibility of the prerogação. More Than One Billion Pounds Produced Last Year The total smelter production of copper from ores mined in the United States in 1911 was 1,097,232,749 lbs. This is the largest production in the history of the industry and compares favorably with the output of 1,080,159,509 pounds for 1910. Arizona again heads the list of copper producing states with a production of 303,202,532 pounds, the largest production ever made by the state. Montana is second, with 271,814,491 pounds; Michigan third, with 218,185,236 pounds, and Utah fourth, with 142,340,215 pounds. The most notable gains were made by Alaska and Utah, the production of Alaska increasing from 4,311,026 pounds in 1910 to 22,314,889 pounds in 1911, and that of Utah from 125,185,455 pounds in 1910 to 142,340,215 pounds in 1911. The states showing the most marked falling off in output were California and Montana. The former decreased from 45,760,200 pounds in the year 1910 to 35,835,651 pounds in 1911 and the latter from 283,078,473 pound in 1910 to 271,814,491 pounds in 1911. In California the decrease was due to difficulty in controlling smelter fumes; in Montana it was caused by voluntary curtailment due to the condition of the copper market. The total production of refined copper from primary sources, both domestic and foreign, was 1,433,875,-025 pounds in 1911, compared with 1,422,039,135 pounds in 1910. In addition to the copper produced from ore a total of 214,000,000 lbs was recovered by the treatment of old copper and brass, copper and brass scraps, filings, clippings, etc. The consumption of copper in the United States for 1911 was apparently somewhat smaller than in the previous year, but the amount exported was considerably greater, so that the stocks of refined copper held in the United States were materially reduced. CALIFORNIA ON WHEELS Special Train Will Carry Exhibit of Products East "California on Wheels" is an assured success and one of the greatest tours to advertise California that has ever been attempted. Starting from Los Angeles next September, looping the continent with a special train including an exhibit car of California cities and outlying country in minia- Whether the women of California want President Taft or not, they surely cannot look with favor on Colonel Roosevelt and the Johnson machine, which is the only sponsor the colonel has in this state. Roosevelt is hot and cold on the question of woman's suffrage as he is on the recall. In California, since the franchise has been granted to women, he would probably favor it, while in New York, where there is not the remotest possibility of the prerogative being granted, he is bitterly opposed to it. In other words, the colonel is "playing both ends against the middle." Which means he is engaged in the smartest kind of machine politics. And Governor Johnson is not one whit better. Nothing has been more wilfully misrepresented than the attitude of the Johnson machine on woman suffrage. Two years ago, when the amendment was before the people and Johnson was going about the state protesting his devotion to clean politics and his desire for reform, he refused to say one word in its favor. The friends of the amendment appealed to him to make some reference to it in his speeches but not once did he mention it. There was a reason for his silence. He was opposed to the amendment at the behest of those who were financing his fight for the governorship. When the fate of the suffrage amendment was in the balance Johnson visited Los Angeles. Prominent suffragists visited him at his hotel and implored him to make his attitude known. Johnson was with Marshall Stimson, one of the members of his machine and now one of the nominees on the Roosevelt ticket for delegate to the Chicago convention, and the latter said, when he saw CALIFORNIA ON WHEELS Special Train Will Carry Exhibit of Products East "California on Wheels" is an assured success and one of the greatest tours to advertise California that has ever been attempted. Starting from Los Angeles next September, looping the continent with a special train including an exhibit car of California cities and outlying country in miniature, it will visit the leading cities and towns in Canada and the United States and reach a population of fifty million people. Accompanying the trip, daily lectures will be given by a competent and entertaining speaker, who will exhibit a specially photographed series of moving pictures and beautifully colored stereopticon views. Several millions of copies of attractive booklets will be distributed showing the many beauties of California. There will be advertising in newspapers which total a circulation of twelve millions daily, and a celebrated concert band of fifty pieces will be carried to stimulate enthusiasm. There will be also an expert of worldwide experience in industrial branches whose solicitations will be of great value in negotiating for the establishment of additional manufacturing plants on the coast which will provide labor for the thousands of workers and craftsmen coming to California before the opening of the Panama canal. Preparations are made so that representatives from the various sections of the state can accompany the tour to help boost for their districts. Have your eyes tested by Theo Roberts, graduate optician. AGAINST THE FARMERS Tillers of the soil in California are vitally concerned as to the attitude of the presidential candidates on the tariff as it applies to California. Many thousands of California voters who wish to exercise the right of franchise intelligently at the primaries May 14, want to know how Theodore Roosevelt stands on wool and lemons, and other products of the soil subject to tariff legislation. Roosevelt has declared himself in sympathy with the views of the Johnson-Heney-Kent combination, which means but little encouragement for the many thousand farmers in the state who would like to know the probable fate of investments in citrus and deciduous fruits, sugar-beets, olive orchards and sheep ranches under Roosevelt's administration. Many of the most prominent insurgents in California express their disappointment that their leader cannot be induced to express himself upon any item of the tariff. It was confidently expected that Roosevelt would gain the greatest measure of his support from the county districts, but even the most sanguine partisans of Roosevelt do not anticipate an overwhelming endorsement from the sugar beet producers; the owners of lemon groves and olive orchards, and the men engaged in sheep raising. The theory of government by the people, which the former president insists is the issue of the campaign, contains no information on topics of this kind. It makes no mention of the every day problem of gaining a livelihood, a subject which engages the attention of most men during nine-tenths of their waking hours. In California there are a number of important industries at stake because of the combination between ANIMALS THAT COUNT. Magpies, Rooks and Apes Can't Get Past the Number Four. There are human beings, such as inhabitants of the Murray Islands, in the strait of Torres, that cannot count further than two. But, most surprising still, most animals possess calculating abilities, and several have a distinct appreciation of number. In certain mines of Hainault the horses are so used to traversing the same road thirty times that after their last round they go to the stable of their own accord and refuse to take another step. Montaigne says that the oxen employed in the royal gardens of Susa for turning the wheels to which the water pails were attached absolutely refused to make more than a hundred rounds, which constituted their daily task. A close observer has definitely established the fact that magpies and rooks cannot count further than four. A rook never returns to its nest until it is quite satisfied that there is no danger near. When four hunters or less departed in succession from a nearby log cabin the rook would return to its nest after the last had gone out of sight. But whenever there were more the bird lost count and returned to its nest even while some were still in the hut. Similarly apes do not count further than four, and the Boers of the Transvaal when they want to hunt these animals hide in numbers exceeding four. Four depart in succession in such a manner as to be noticed by the apes, who then come forth and are easily captured.—Chicago News. FIRST PRINTER'S DEVIL. He Was a Young Negro Slave Employed by Aldus Manutius. Aldus Manutius, who in 1488 set up his office in Venice, has long been famous as the first of the publishers of the famous Aldine classics, which today are so highly prized by book collectors. He was the author of a Latin MOTHER-OF-PEARL WORK. Method by Which the Designs Are Built Up Bit by Bit. Wonderful is the work of the designer in mother-of-pearl. With tiny segments of this iridescent material he builds up a beautiful design bit by bit, section by section. First, from the cabinetmaker he receives the woodwork upon which his design will be formed. It may be the top of a carved chest, a portion of a stool or table, or some dainty nicknack to delight a lady's heart. Then upon the wood he roughly draws the design and gathers together the crude pieces with which to form the mosaic in the wood. Selecting a piece of mother-of-pearl, he fits it in a vise, and then with a tiny file he shapes it to occupy the required space. Deftly he sets the section in the wood, fixing it with warm paste to fill the crevices. Another piece is then selected, fashioned and secured, and so day after day till the piece is complete. The design is then rubbed with pumice stone to give enhanced color, varnish is applied, and the finishing touches are given. Tonquin, a division of French Indo-China, furnishes the finest native layers of mother-of-pearl. — Pearson's Weekly. A MUSICAL RIOT. One of the Attractions at an Old Time Virginia Celebration. Here is a program observed in the celebration of St. Andrew's day in an old Virginia town in 1737: That a fiddle be played for by twenty fiddlers, every person to bring his own fiddle. After the prize is won they are all to play together and each one a different tune and then be treated by the company. That twelve boys of twelve years of age do run for 112 yards for a hat at the cost of 12 shillings. That a flag be flying on said day thirty feet high. FROM GRANT TO ROOSEVELT There were 756 delegates in the republican national convention of 1880 with 379 votes necessary to nominate. On the first ballot Grant had 304 votes out of the 755 that were cast, leaving him within 72 of the necessary majority. But James A. Garfield had 399 votes and was nominated for president. Illinois had 42 votes in the convention, and 24 of them went to Grant. Pennsylvania had 58 votes in the convention, and 32 of them went to Grant. Missouri had 30 votes in the convention, and 29 of them went over to Grant. These are now Roosevelt states, and Mr. Roosevelt's managers point to them as final proof that he will be nominated. Grant had a majority of the delegates from all three of them, and in addition he had 51 of New York's 70 delegates, with Roscoe Conkling, the manager of the Grant campaign, as their chairman. Mr. Roosevelt's friends expect to swing the southern delegates when the test of strength comes at Chicago. Grant had almost all the southern delegates thirty-two years ago, but Grant was not nominated for president. Will the delegate who presents Mr. Roosevelt's name at Chicago make a more appealing speech than that of Conkling when he stepped to the front of the platform and began— FIRST PRINTER'S DEVIL. He Was a Young Negro Slave Employed by Aldus Manutius. Aldus Manutius, who in 1488 set up his office in Venice, has long been famous as the first of the publishers of the famous Aldine classics, which today are so highly prized by book collectors. He was the author of a Latin grammar, a Greek dictionary and a treatise on the metrical methods of the poet Horace and originated the form of type known by us as Italic and by German printers as "cursive" type. He is also said to be responsible for the name of "printer's devil," almost worldwide in its application to the youngest boy in the office. A young negro slave employed in his office who was so very black and dirty that his natural ugliness had become an almost fiendish expression became feared and known all over Venice as "the little black devil," and Manutius at last realized that the boy and himself had dangerously awakened the superstitious fears and dislike of the more ignorant Venetians. He accordingly formally exhibited him during a whole day on the public streets and had the criers make this proclamation throughout the city: "I, Aldus Manutius, printer to the holy church and the doge, have this day made public exposure of the printer's devil. All who think he is not flesh and blood may come and prick him."—Charles Winslow Hall in National Magazine. Don't Call It Slang. A Cleveland man who has lived for a number of years recently got it into his head that he might die one of these days and that it would be well if he wrote his autobiography ere that sad event occurred, as one might say. So he sat down and wrote many pages and took those pages to a local publisher. After the manuscript had been in the latter's hands for some time the author called him up. "This is Bjones," he explained genially. "Who's Bjones?" came the reply. "Bjones, you know—Bjones of East Umpth street, whose autobiography you are publishing. Ah—I'm a little short this week. Could you let me have something in advance?" "Not on your life!" And you may think the printer was slangy, but he wasn't—Cleveland Plain Dealer. Split Infinitives.

After the prize is won they are all to play together and each one a different tune and then be treated by the company. That twelve boys of twelve years of age do run for 112 yards for a hat at the cost of 12 shillings. That a flag be flying on said day thirty feet high. That after dinner the royal health, his honor the governor's, is to be drunk. That a pair of silver buckles be wrestled for by a number of brisk young men. That a pair of handsome shoes be danced for. That a pair of handsome silk stockings of one pistole value be given to the handsomest young maid that appears in the field. It is probable, says the Ohio State Journal, our tastes are too much changed to enjoy such a list of attractions, but one may imagine what fun they must have caused. Ocean Cannibals. Such fierce carnivorous fishes as exist in the depths of the ocean are unknown at the surface. There is a "black swallower" which devours other finny creatures ten times as big as itself, literally climbing over its victim, first with one jaw and then with the other. Another species is nearly all mouth, and having no power of locomotion, it lies buried in the soft ooze at the bottom, its head alone protruding, ready to engulf any prey that may wander into its cavernous jaws. There is a ferocious kind of shark resembling a huge eel. All of these monsters are black as ink. Some of them are perfectly blind, while others have enormous, goggling eyes. No ray of sunlight ever pierces the dark, unfathomed caves in which they dwell. Each species is gobbled by the species next bigger, for there is no vegetable life to feed on.—Spare Moments. As Others See It. Every two or three weeks I approach my house from the unusual side and make a note of the effect of porch, windows and the curtains. Then I try to go into the house as a stranger. Pictures which have become so familiar that they were a part of the wall I see the need of changing, and so I see things all through the house. I think more than anything else I find the rooms overcrowded and fussy and something can be banished. Of course I can't always do these things at the time, but I make a note of them. This has worked well with my house that I am trying it for myself.

The general practice, however, is said to have prevailed among standard English authors since the seventeenth century.—Boston Globe. A Fighting Chance.

The Method of "Running For Congress" in Germany. For election to the reichstag there is equal universal suffrage with secret ballot for all made citizens twenty-five years of age, there being certain excluded classes, criminals, paupers, etc., while persons in actual military service have their voting rights suspended. Nominations are not made by regular conventions, as with us. Any man may put his name before the people, but in practice, of course, committees in each election district make the nominations for the parties, and the methods of securing the nominations, by personal solicitation, by trades among the aspirants, by the influence of dominating personalities, are much the same as with us, for the Germans, too, have their "bosses," and they are even now using the English word to express the fact. One hears little or nothing of bribery in German elections, but the influence of the government, amounting practically to coercion of officials and the direction of their political activity by their superiors, is generally recognized as going far beyond the "pernicious political activity" that has been so emphatically condemned and so nearly suppressed in the United States.—American Review of Reviews.

Both Phones Use Good BUILDER'S HARDWARE And Furnishings By deliberately insulting a superior officer at a court martial a French soldier at Lille incurred the death penalty. The incident is a deplorable one. The fact that the officers had to condemn the man is likewise painful, but the military regulations were plain and left no alternative. A dragoon in one of the regiments at Lille was being tried before a court martial. Another dragoon of the same regiment, who was undergoing arrest for some other fault, was summoned as a witness. When this dragoon entered the room of the court martial he was asked by the presiding colonel to take off his cap. The man took this in bad part and flung his cap at the colonel, following it up with a storm of abusive language. When he had finished, the colonel, out of sheer good nature, asked him to reflect and express regret for his action, which he was willing to look upon as a momentary outburst of temper. The dragoon merely repeated his insults. The court martial immediately deliberated and at the end of a quarter of an hour gave judgment condemning the dragoon to death.—Boston Transcript. Book Without Errata. A London publisher once determined to publish at least one book which should be faultless in the matter of erata. He had the proofs corrected by his own proofreaders with the greatest care until they had exhausted their skill and patience and assured him that there were no longer any errors to be eliminated. Taking duplicate proofs of the last revise, he sent them to the universities and other large publishing houses, offering large money prizes for each error discovered. A few errors only were found, and after every one had a chance to detect any additional errors the plates were made, the book printed, expensively bound and sold as an absolutely perfect book and unique in all literature. For a long time this was conceded, but six or eight months after its publication a letter called the publisher's attention to an error in a certain line and page. Later a second was announced, and before the first year had elapsed some four or five errors had been reported.—Charles Winslow Hall, in National Magazine. Natural Turkish Baths.

A fire is then built in the hole and kept burning until the stones are thoroughly heated. Water from the lake is sprinkled on the hot stones, and a steam arises which is laden with medicinal properties.—London Graphic. Nature.
