ARBOR DAY.

ArbOr Day, throughout Arizona, Will
be ft;inGy commemorated tomorrow.
The day has been designated a holiday
by our governor, and as a result the
territorial school doors will close. giving
the pupils an opportunity to plant trees
and shrubbery, dedicate their laboIs TO
names of their teachers and others, and,
at the same time, adding their mite
towards tie adornment Of the future
State of Arizona. ArbOr Day should
always ID well recognized throughout
this territory; there is no land under
the sun batter adapted for tree growing
than ours, and none stands more in need
of few more forests than does this
portion of our rerrit rial sphere. Barrel
mesa needs but the presence Of the tree
planter to furnish a picture similar to
the verdant glades said TO be in the
vicinity of old Jerusalem; such being
the case there is no reason why We can
not, in time, make the banks of the
Santa Cruz Mecca for the dusty, wild
eyed sojourner from the east, who has
been taught from his infancy that the
Sahara desert begins on the eastern
boundary of Arizona and ends on the
shores Of the Pacific Ocean. Let US
plant trees, the presence Of which will
surely cause TO tarry with US fair
portion of the Oriental element in its
seml-annual migration to the Occidental
sphere of health and wealth. Plant

a Bic Little Boy"

Senator Squire recently played a
scurvy trick on Senator John B. Allen.
They were travelling together from Wash
ington. When they went to secure
sleeping berths there were only two to
be had-one upper and one lower. The
two senators tossed up" for choice,
and Senator Allen won, taking the low
er berth, of course. During the night
the train stopped at station in Mis-
sour, where large, heavy woman en-
tered the sleeper, looking for berth.
Squire poked his head out between
the curtains and seeing the ponderous
lady said:
MADAM, the berths are ali taken, but
if you wish you can occupy the one just
under me, where my little boy is sleep
ing"
This was satisfactory to the Missouri
amazon, who removed her shoes and
then swung around into the bunk. Just
about this time the disturbed occupant
attempted to rise to see what the m
trusion meant. With one fell swoop of
her palm, she clapped it squarely over
the ger item ms mouth, saying, There,
little boy, don't speak; your father said
l could sleep here"
Again the "httle boy" attempted tn
rise, and this tims be managed 10 say:
MADAM, want to tell you that am
no boy"
"Who are you, then?"
who! I'm Senator Allen, from the
senate at Washington" be exclaimed.
''Consciencep sheyelled, and spranged
up and dashed out of the car, exclaim
ing, TO the CONSERVATION of everyone
but the squire. "Oh, what would Hiram
say if he knew?" -Northwestern Maya

A Pointer for Capital.

Ditch and canal enterprises are num-
erous and increasing in Arizona, which
is as it should be. The Allison ditch, in
the west side of the Santa Cruz valley is
late enterprise promising well, and
Mr.. Durham, late contractor there, tells
OF where another small canal can be
built, and with profit.
He would locate it also in the valley,
likewise near town, but or the opposite
size of the river. He says it would not
interfere with the Allison canal in any
wise 1t could b. built from above town
mile or two, where water Is so plenli-
full that by tanning bar IN the ground
and removing it water will rush forth
above the ground level. He says 1t
could be few miles ia length 10 the
ranches below town, and would irrigate
at least fifty farms.
He COOS further to say that the enter
prise would be worth $4,000 year TO
Tucson, a. d that 1t could be built at
cost of $4,000.

Got OFF on a Technicality.

Jesus PARA. well acquainted with the
county Jail interior, is once again at IL
berty.
Three weeks ago he was committed to
jail for fifteen days, for stealing horse,
valued $40. He appealed the case, fur
nished b nd for appearance. and was re-
leased,
Ia two or three days he was back
az ,iu, this time for twenty days.
As ne was about finishing sentence
No. 2 he VAS destined to finish No.
the bonds having been withdrawn, when
he put in an application for habeas cor
pus. This was heard yesterday before
Judge Sloan. The attorney took the
ground that PARA had been committed
for misdemeanor, while the law makes
the stealing of stock or horses a felonr.
The application was granted and PARA
dismissed.

A Queen SnowbaIIed.

Little Queen Wilhelmina, of the Meth
erlands, some weeks ago got into mus:
which is probably without precedent in
the annals of kings and queens. She and
her mother had driven out from the city
as usual In the afternoon for an airing.
As Is the wont of the unostentatious
queenmother, they drove in a plain car
riage, unattended by outriders or loot
men. In hamlet about two miles from
the capital they came upon a crowd OF
young school children in the midst of a
hot SNOWFALL fight. The carriage was
stopped so that the little sovereign
might observe how her little subjects
amused themselves.
1t was give and take, hot and heavy,
among the combatants. The weaker
party began to go to the wall Just IS
its discontinue was aggravated by Ae
fall of the boy leader, who had got ball
Of slush in the eye, the young queen
sprang to her feet and leaped from the
carriage. She ran between the two par
ties of combatants and called out that
the victors must at once stop snowballing
She had the proverbial luck of peace
makers. All the children turned on her,
and before the coachman could come to
ner aid had her half buried under a
great pile of snow. When pulled out
Wilhelmina shook out her skirts, drew
herself up, and said calmly:
boys and girls, am your queen
The agitation of the ccachman cor
roborated this simple declaration. The
children were too frightened to run
away. All of them became white and
scared, and most of them sniveled pite-
ously. Queen Emma added to their
terror by ordering the coachman to take
their names. The next day, however.
the mourning of every child was turned
TO gladness when If received a box of
toys with the good wishes of the child

NORTH AND SOUTH.
The Probabilities for a Roailroad
Through Tucson Southwark.

From Prescott junction to Phenix;
from PhenIx to Florence; thence via
Tucson; via Calabas8s, and to Guay>
mas.
Talk of north and south railroad has
been heard in Tucson for years. In fact
the tore has often been sarcastic in that
regard. Once again the subject is up
for discussion, and things do look feas-
lille for the building.
Last night j. w. Hansen, agent of the
powder firm furnishing blasting mate
rial for Lanty & Co., contractors, who
Will build the road, was in the city. Mr..
hanson believes that the road will go
through, and bring up at Calabasas by
the route aforementioned.
One thing is sure. The road is going
TO Phenix, ard big obstacle in the
shape Of extra road building from Ash
Flo k, on tie Atlantic IL Pacific, to a
point adjacent to half way up the Pres
colt junction road has been avoided by
A transfer of the old road TO the Santa
Fe people. If it goes to Phenix, why
stop there?
1t is not probable that Phenix is the
objective point.
By the building of the road from the
Atlantic & Pacific all tariff paid the
S Juthern Fac fic will be saved and line
much less subjet TO washouts han the
p-esea one from Calabasas north will be
obtained.
Again, freights to Tucson will be less.
Yesterday car Of beer arrive d for Law
orin & Co. from Milwaukee. The freight
rate from Milwaukee to Deming was
$40; from Deming to Tucson 1924.
Rival lines mean cheap freights.
A of which may to some extent be
costly building. The read is not here
yet, but good substantial business men
cf Tucson Think it not improbable that
it will come.
