FOR THE EXPOSITION
Mrs. }. D. Reed Left LaSi Night for
Paris

Mrs. ]. D. Reed left last night for
from Arizona to the great exposition of
1900 and she will remain there until the
event is over. She will arrive in Phil
adelphia next Saturday morning and
Will Immediately take an American
line steamer for Liverpool. Mrs. Reed
has made arrangements to furnish a
series of letters to American newspa-
pers and periodicals on the exposition
and Paris. She has had experience in
journalistic work and as she is a thor
oughly practical woman her letters
will be more instructive than the let
tiers of the average correspondent who
writes of what he thinks rather than of
what he sees. Mrs. Reed will be ac-
companied from Philadelphia by a lady
who has travelled extensively in Eu-
rope and who has resided for some time
in the French capital
Mrs. Reed has also arranged with
General Agent E. w. Gillett to assist
him in his excursion business during
the exposition. Mr.. Gillett has practi-
cally completed plans for handling
great deal of Paris travel next summer
and about the middle of July will en-
deavor to make up a solid train of Arr
zonians for the exposition. Those who
wish to go before or after that time
will be accommodated and the wants
of all will be looked after in advance
by Mrs. Reed, who will be previously
informed of their coming.
Mr.. Gillett has been an agent for
steamship lines for fifteen years and
now holds the agency for fifteen lines,
so that his tourists will be given the
choice of a wide variety of routes.
Speaking last night of his experience
in transatlantic traffic, he said that
two years ago an Englishman residing
near Phoenix rushed into the office
shortly before train time and said:
I've just made up my mind to spend
Christmas at home" His home was in
and it was then perilously near
Christmas. Il can get there all right,
he said, IF everything works right, but
l haven't a day to lose. Now if 1 leave
here tonight L can get into New York
on the morning of the -th at o'clock, |
can't I?' Mr.. Gillett consulted a guide |
and found that he could. Then 1 can
get a steamer" continued the English |
man, "at 10 o'clock?" That was also |
true. Then said the Englishman, |
Il ought to get home the day before
That depended on wind !
and weather.
He bought a ticket for Liverpool and |
ran for the train. A month later Mr..
iillett had a letter from him saying
hat he had reached London at b
o'clock on Christmas eve.

oDELL ON CROKER.
Republican Leader Says the Tam
many Boss Talks Too Much.

New York, Oct 30.-Thfs is the first
year in the memory of the oldest pol
itician in which not a single candidate
is to be voted for generally through
out the state. This has had the effect
of making the campaign a conglomer-
alton of local fights.
Were not running talk factory
here said Chairman Odell of the re-
publican state committee today, when
urged to say something on the general
situation for the upstate republicans.
Mr. Croker is doing all the business in
that line. The republicans up the
state can rest assured that We've got
the assembly And that's the whole
story Mr.. Croker is conducting the
campaign in the state as we'll as in the
city, and that fact is well understood
up the state. Mr.. Croker is conducting
the campaign, and what is more, he is
talking.

Almost any tailor can make a gar
ment fit, but there are few who invest
their garments with the style" There
is an unfailing style and grace and
character to the HUB clothing that is
achieved only by skilled men who have
given years of patient study to their
art. They have brought ready-to-wear
clothing to a point of excellence that
was not deemed possible a few years
ago. These garments have been raised
to the level of custom tailor's produc-
lions at a third of his prices, and
men who a few years back abhorred
a ready-made clothing establishment
are now thoroughly satisfied patrons

INDIANS AND COWBOYS !
They Will Be Given Two DAYS in
the Carnival Programme.

| The cowboy and Indian races and
! form part of the strongest attractions
i Everybody is interested in cowboys
and Indians. The story writer has
i cast a halo over these products of the
great west. For these and other rea-
! sons they will entertain the lnultitudes
on two days instead of one. This was
determined upon yesterday afternoon
at a meeting of the sports and amuse-
ments committee of the carnival as
ISOLATION.
The race track south of the city will
therefore prove the center of attract IN
on both Thursday and Friday after
Moons of carnival week In the pro-
gramme previously outlined it had
been agreed to give the Indians and
cowboys Friday as their day, opening
in the morning with an Indian and
cowboy parade. The result of yester-
days meeting is to give the public
just a little more of a good thing.
The programme therefore contem-
plates for Thursday afternoon the fol-
lowing features:
Running ace-Three-eighths of
mile; purse, $3.50; prizes, IS per cent,
Is per cent and 10 per cent; entrance
fee, $25.
Cowboys relay race-First, SIS; sec
ond, s25; entrance, IS.
Indian relay race-Purse, $25.
Flag picking-Purse, 500.
On Friday afternoon the following
will be the programme:
tVinp cOOfoSt-ENiT-St nTiZo
second, $50; third, S25; entrance So.
Bronco riding-F'irst prize, $50; sec
ond, s25; third, $40.
Pursuit and holding up of an over
land stage by Indians and desperadoes.
This will be one of the great at
fractions of Friday. One of the old
time stage coaches will be used for
the purpose and the spectators can
witness the representation of the
perils that attended overland travelling
many years ago.
The broncho riding and steer tying
contests will also be marvellous exhibit
tons of skill. The steers will be wild
and gamey denizens of the most mac
cessible canyons of Arizona and the
broncos untamed and unridden roam
ers of the Colorado plateau.
Other features of the programme will
he details are yet to be arranged, but
the foregoing will furnish the public
with a foretaste of the good things TO
De expected.
The soliciting committee yesterday
secured the following additional
amounts: Dunbars fruit stand, So;
V. r. Norris, IS; J. w. Dewitt, So; A.
Weller. S.. The total amount now
raised is IS, $50.
The committee on transportation has
received every encouragement to be-
ieve that a special excursion round
rip of So will be made from Tucson
Turing carnival week. This shows a
disposition on the part of the railroad
companies to help boom the carnival.
With a 50 rate in force, twenty-five
persons will come over from Tucson
where there would be only one person

will be benefited by the Inauguration

QUEEN or THE CARNIVAL
COUNT at the End of The First DAVIS
Contest

The first days voting in the contest
for queen of the carnival ended most
auspiciously last evening with total
of 231 ballots cast. The number of
candidates for a starter in contest of
this kind is unusually large, as the list
given below will show and the cam
paign promises to be an unusually ac-
tive one. The position of queen of the
carnival is one that may well be the
envy of the best lady of the land and in
a contest of this nature it is evident
that merit must win. The vote re-
corded yesterday, in addition to being
unusually large for a starter, is nota-
bic from the fact that all the ballot
boxes have not been distributed at the
different polling places, which are the
drug stores of the city. The names
and money were handed in to the COM
mittee in a number of instances by
friends Of the contestants, with re-
quest that a record be faithfully made
of the same. This is very significant
straw, telling the drift of public in
terest in the queen of the carnival.
The work of distributing the balance
of the ballots and ballot boxes will be
completed this morning and it is ex-
pected that voting will be in full swing
before the afternoon is over. The
boxes provided are the same as those
used by the county in regular cleo
tions and the purity Of the ballot will
be zealously guarded. Ballots cost five
cents each and can be cast in blocks of
fives, tens or twenty-fives or even
singly Following is the list of candi-
dates voted for yesterday and the
number of ballots received by each.

CHRISTENED FOR DEWEY.
The Admiral Puns OH the Size of His
Bat,


A friend of Dewey's recently Joined
the admiral at Manila, and in the course
of conversation made laughing allusion
to the many articles named for him
since May /. He writes that his recital
pleased Dewey and his bright eyes twin
kled as he replied Il did not imagine
that little target practice before break
fast on the LIST of May would bring a
new adjective into the language, but
look here. | have Dewey watch-and
it's number one watch, too-with a

continued: "One of the manufacturers
who had named a hat after me wished
to send me one, and wrote me asking
what size l now wore" ''And Your
reply?" [ asked. ooh, 1 told him the
same size that l wore before May l."
1t is not often the privilege Of mortals
to pass informal conversation with a
live hero and go away carrying back to
your private life the ideal that you cher
ished. Dewey is the typical, genial,
natural American. He is a nervous,
quick-wittcd man, who eschews publici-
ty, and who puts on no side to awe
and Overwhelm his interiors in rank and
Importance. One goes out of his pres
ence carrying the memory of having
known q man, the idol of 10000 900 of
people. without having been made to feel
the inSignihcance of being but one of
those millions. He is an American of
the Americans-not a demi-god for one
to have boasted of kissing the hem Of
his misunderstanding Post.

Military Instruction Again Made
Compulsory at Madison.

Madison, Wis, Feb. 25.-Compulsory
military drill will be resumed next

many Of the university students. Presi-
dent Adams received q dispatch FROM
Washington saying that the request of
the regents was granted and that Capt.
Charles A. Curtis had been detailed as
professor of military science at Wiscon-
sin. If this step had not been taken the
university would have lost upwards OF
$4,000. as this money comes from the
United States government only on condi-
ton that there shall be compulsory mill
tary drill for portion of the school year.
Since the breaking out of the war with
Spain the government could not spare
one of its officers until this time
Capt. Curtis is Il veteran in military af-
fairs, having served in the Civil and
many Indian wars. He was educated at
the Military college of Vermont and WAS

college, receiving the degree Of Il. \.
