CfJtq~ wv ~~w A RIZONA, whose entry as the the forty-eighth member of the Union, and completed the nation of states from ocean to ocean, has had a history probably as turbulent and trying as any state in the Union. The struggles of the Pilgrims of Massachusetts, the Hollanders who colonized New York. the Quakers who settled Pennsylvania and the English who brought civilisa tion to the Virginia shores were no hardier than those of the pioneers of Arizona They were killed by Indi ans. robbed by lawless people of their own nationality, starved upon the des erts, frosen in the snow-capped moun taias and bitten by poisonous reptiles They had no government for many Years and fought as hard to get terri torial rights as they have been fight ing for the past ten years to get statehood rights. They were on the point of rebelting at one time and even went so far as to establish a ter ritorial form of government of their own despite the expressed desire of congress, exemplified in its refusal to grant a territorial government, that they should remain a part of New Mexioco. Their nearest peace and judicial of Bfllat were then four hundred miles away, at Mesilla, N. M., and their law was the law of the strongest against the weakest At one time all of the present state of Arizona was the county of Arlsona, attached to New Mexico for purposes of administration only. Gen. Nelson A. Miles, General.Law ton, Oeneral Crook and many other noted men of the United States army gtaned their first fame in campaigning to Arizona' It was from Arizona that the only raid of United States troops was ever made into a foreign country not then at war with us: the soldiers were after indians who had been kill. f/ ag and robbing in Arizona. The his tory of Ariztsona is thrilling from its inception to the present day. The orilin of the aer Ariztsona is not definitely known. Bancroft. the historian, and some others have in sisted that the name is frog a sup posed Pmna Indian word, "Artsona." although Bancroft admits that the aboriginal meaning of the term le not known" The historian treats as "atremely absurd" the suggestion that the name to of Spanish dertiva tioa. and be apparently bases that conclusion upon the fact that there is no similar word in Spanish But it is possible that "Arizona" may have had its derivation from the Spanish words arlda sons (arid sone) The well-known tendency of unedu cated speakers of Spanish to leave of the last syllables of words endlng Into vowels and their tendency to run words together would easily trans torm anrds son into "Artsizona" First True Exploration. It wae about 16l7 that Cabesa de Vaca turned his wandering footsteps to the Hopi and Zuni villages in the ortheast, gaining Mexico at last by way of the friendly Plma settlements along the 011a It was to 140 that Vasco de Coro nado governor of Mexleo, lured by the golden tales of a monkish travel r., started northward on the first true exploration of that mysterious land Be sought the fabled Seven Cities of Cibota. where gold and precious gems paved the streets Though he did not fnd the object of his search bhis ex pedition led to Spanish settlements and alcultura, and mining had some development Back aglan into barbarism was Art. mess plunged by the Meziean war for independence. sad not until the Geds de purchase into 184. did the frm hand of governmental authority again take hold Even then. however, all that was known of Arizona was a nar row strip within which the Southern Pacific railroad now runs and along which flowed the tide of travel from the euastern states to the gold fields of Californiat Treachernomu Indian, of Leag Age. When the white man first came to Artsona there were approximately 40,. 000 ladians within the borders of the territorlty The principal tribes were the Navajos. Hopis. Wallapals. Chemo huevia. Havasuplas. Mohaves, Pmas, Maricopus Yumas. Papagoes and Apaches. of which there were several groups or divistaons The Navajue perpetrated everal massacres in the early days. but it was not long before al1 the Indians except the Apaches had been sqtdued Tricky and ruel the Apaches held out for many years agalnst the In roads of the whites upon their ancieat hunting grounds 8uch leaders uas Cochlse, Geronmo and Natces led the Apaches againat famous American enerals like Nelson A. Miles and George Croot reward of p.000 was once ofered for Apache Kid. but was never clalmed. Up to 1874 the Indians terrorlsed largte sectlose o the terrltory anud kept out immlratlon and capital In that year all the Apaches that eould be rounded up were pleced os the lsa Carlos reservatio. It was sup -sd that an nd had been put to thIe Indian trouel h, t nade tna 18 º and 1883 shook the feeling of security. t In the year 1883 there were 25,000 0 Indians In the territory occupying lands reserved for them by the gen r eral government. The government i was supporting about five thousaqa of I them. I In 1882 the Chirltehus, WhrI . Mountain and Bab Carlos Apapcs Sbroke out in open rebellion. On the morning of April 19 Loco's band broke out at San Carlos and after killing the chief of police started up the valley of the il.L killing at least r sixty white settlers. Then for six years Arisona was the scene of a merciless Indian war. In 1883 Geronlmo became chief of the º Apaches. He massacred settlers and burned ranches almost at will. After each rald he would escape to the t mountain fastnesses of Mexioo where the United States soldiers could not pursue him. Finally permission was secured from Mexico for soldiers to º cros the frontier in pursuit of the Is 4ians. In 1888 Captain Lawton. serv in uander Gen. Nelson A. Miles, sta t rounded Geronimo's warriors and made them prisoners. The whole tribe was taken to Florlda and later trans ferred to Fort 1Sill Okla., as prisoners of war. There Geronimo remained until his death, three or four years ago, and the remainder of his band Is still there. All desire to return to Arisosa and It is possible that sometime the government may see St to grant them their wish. Today they are as peaoe -ful and placid as any Indians. having rseen the folly of resisting the whites. º Of course there were bad men aud I gun men in Ariztsona in her early days. t stage and train robberies were by so means uncommon and excited only Spassing comment Flnally train rob B beries became so frequent that nla 1889 the penalty for that crime was fixed at death. In the same year the I legislature passed a law providing a fine of $25 for any one carryinlg ee I ceared weapons. I It was not until after the penalty for train robbing had been fixed at death that Arisona became really peaceful. Now there Is no train rob I bing any more, and as the day of the I stage coach is practically passed the I stage robber Is extinct Until 1907 everything was wide open In Arizona Gambling was ure t strained and, except where munietpal laws prevented, women and minors were allowed n saloons. la that year the legislature responded to an urgent Smessage from Governor Klbbey and to pronounced public sentiment and passed a rigid anti-gambilag law that closed such games. Glant and Dwarl Honey Bees In some of the East Indian Islands and on the mainland of Hindustan are to be found the smallest species of s honey bees in the world. These dwarf a honey collectors are known to enti I mologists as Apl ldore. Their bomey º combs are no larger than a child's hand and the cells are about the side of a small pin bead. This honey is excellent, u is the wax. The little creatures build the comb on the branch of a low tree, and as they have not to provide for winter they work all the year through, raning broods r like themselves. In the same land thee is a spees t of giant bees, Apis dorsata, as large as a field cricket These monsters of the bee world build honeyeombs I that are from six to seven feet 'a length, four or more in width, and which weigh from three to four hui º dred pounds each.

Lincoln said: "The Lord must have loved the one-talent people, for he d made so many of them." U We are too prone to look at talents a as accomplishments, like painting. n singing or being a good musician, for getting that there are talents of far 0 more lasting quality which are hardly recognis as such. A dear little Quaker woman once made the remark that she would rath- h er have merited this epitaph on her 8 tomb stone than any she ever knew: "She was easy to live with." Being ih easy to live with is a talent worth cul tivating and one which is all too e rare. If our children today might be d taught that to be agreeable and com panionable, unselfish and thoughtful 14 of others are qualities far more valu- d able in life than being able to speak seven languages.

There is Uving today In Illinois a man who played a large part In the making of Kansas history. He is Dr. George Brown, who came to Lawrence in 1864 and there established the Her ald of Freedom, the frst ree state newspaper ever published In Kansas. Today Dr. Brown is almost the last of the men who fought for Kansas in that bloody time before the war, risk Ing their lives to uphold a principle they believed sacred-the principle of human freedom, says the Kansea City Star. Dr. Brown Is nlnety-two years old In the late evening of his life-but he still remembers vividly the exctiting events of the border warfare days. when he published the Herald of Free dam from a log cabin In Lawrence, writing against slavery with a fear leasses. that made him the object of deep hatred from the southerners, who were equally determined to make Kansas a slave state. So it happened, when Lawrence was raided In 1856, that one of the first buildings to which the torch was applied was the oice of the Herald of Preedom. In the fall of 1854 he removed to Lawrence, Kan., and erected a house, the timber of which was cut and hewed by his printers and sawed by the New England Emigrant Aid com pany's mill. It was the first lumber sawed by the company's mill, and when he had finished his building at once he began to publish the Herald of Freedom, which helped to make Kansas a free state. This paper, D. W. Wilder said, was "the most per fect in character, typography and gen eral makeup of any paper I ever saw." Governor Geary was present upon an oocasion when the stars and stripes c were raised to the summit of the staff u' over the Herald building and made a brief speech to the assembled multi al Id .. n al a1 p1 Dr. George Broew, Who Establehed the Herald of Freedom at. -Law reote, Kan., In 1864 He Stll le Living at the Age of Nisety-Tweo tude. Mrs. Sara T. D.

During the turbulent days om the border he was Imprisoned for chum plontal the canie of human freedom. He was not disturbed, but lived to see the principles he advocated triumph.
