Millions Given Away

1t is certainly gratifying to the
public to know of one concern in
the land who are not afraid to be
generous to the needy and suf-
fering. The proprietors of DR..
Kings New Discovery for Con-
sumption, Coughs and Colds,
have given away over ten million
trial bottles of this great medi-
cine; and have the satisfaction of
knowing it has absolutely cured
thousands of hopeless cases.
Asthma, Bronchitis, Hoarseness
and all diseases of the Throat,
Chest and Lungs are surely cured
by it. Call on Garrett & Gerlg
Druggists and get a free trial
bottle. Regular size so cents
and 81. Every bottle guaran-
teed, or price refunded.

practicable, to close their stores
on June 6, go themselves, and
let their employees go, to Homo

would be lost. Take a day off; it
will do you good.

THE TERRITORIAL
 NORMAL SCHOOL

The location Ct this school at Tempe seems very fortunate. Tempe is situ- ated in the beautiful valley Of the Sals river, seven miles from the capital. IL has railroad connection with the Southern Pacific and Santa Fe systems by the Maric3pa and Phoenix and Salt River Valley railroad. The climate here is delightful during the whole Cf the school year and the cost of living is less than at any othe- place in the territory. The school is in the midst Of an intelligent and moral community engaged in farming and fruit raising.
 BUILDINGS.
 The building heretofore used for school purposes was erected in 1886 at a cost of $6,500. It is a one story brick structure seventy feet long and sixty feet wide, with a broad veranda entire ly surrounding it, and was 9 comfort able home for the school the first seven years Of it's existence
 The new normal school building was completed ill the summer of 1897, and has been occupied by the school the past year. It is commOdious struct- ure, 13G feet long. eighty feet wide, and three stories high. The lower story is of brown sandstone, the other two Of red pressed brick with sandstone trim

W0MEN'S CHRISTIAN
 TEMPERANCE UNION
By Mrs \, P. Bccklcy.

Giancing down the vista of the past We arc impressed at the raDidity with which we, as a territory, have made history during the past year We mo- tice advancement among the various reform movements as well as in our re- ligious, literary and commercial in terests.
 The Wcman's Christian Temperance Union has held aloft it's banner of white and retained its position in the front ranks of this onward march, en- deavoring to attain to the ideals which have been cherished so long. We de- sire our organization to be one of the searchlights in our territory, revealing Gods love in helping humanity to loftier heights of living
 Memories of last year are freighted with sadness as we think of her, who fer so many years. was cur beloved national leader-Frances p. Willard whose coronation in heaven took place about one year ago. She is no longer our ''uncrowned queen" Surely she blessed the world and made it better fer having lived in it, aHd nowhere in the whole arena of ,womanhood has the world ever presented a grander, nobler type of heart and mind.

GOVERNMENT.


 The governmental policy of this school is self-8O government. It is the only form of government capable of producing that safe and seI-reliant character so desirable in the teacher While it is the constant aim of the fac ulty to create and foster a wholesome sentiment, 1t is not it's province to re- tain students wilfully or peTsisteniy refractory. Those who, knowing the right, refuse to follow it, will be con sidered unworthy to become teachers and will be unhesitatingly dismissed.
 The morale of the school is excel lent; no cases of dismissal have oc- cured during the present management of the school, and in but one instance has reD9oOf been necessary. There has been from the first an increasing in terest and enthusiasm among the stu dents in the work Of the school, which make their school work especially prof itaible to them and a source of constant delight to the faculty.
 EXPENSES.
 The small cost Of living at Tempe is . great aid to students of limited financial resources. Board can be ob- tained in good families at from S15 to s2O a month, and in clubs for much less. By hiring rooms and doing their cooking, students are able to make the cost of living closely conform to the expenditures which they desire to make

From thi branch are run on the west side laBeraIs one mile apart each with 2, capAcity of 1900 to 1,500 inches thus supplying the farmer with wafer at his very door without any ex- pense for the maintenance or private ditches There arel no less than l0O miles of these latehals and a thorough system of distribution will be insIi- tuted that will further contribISe- to the economical and efficient utilization of the water supply
 From the end of one of these later als branch known as the orange belt branch runs westward along the ridge between the Salt and Gila rivers which irrigates the fine lands about Kyrene station.
 Altogether the canals and 1aterals Of the Consolidated company cover and will provide wate-' for upwards of 1Oo.- eco acres of land.
 The western branch with a capacity as before stated of 20,O00-inches, among it's other purposes is q supply ditch for the Tempe and Utah Extension canals, but the water from this branch, which runs to the abrupt mesa edge, forty feet above the Tempe canal, is first utilized as a source of power. Taken into the power house with a thirty-six- foot head it runs a pair of horizontal twenty-one-irch Victor turbines devel- oping, with the minimum flow of the Tempe canal, no less than four hundred horse power With the present 2,200 volts, two-phase Westinghouse dynamo there is suffi- cient power to run the Mesa electric lighting plant and to pump consider able water extra to the canals for irri- gation purposes. The company is now constructing an electric line to Tempe for lighting purposes.
 The whole of the works of the Con- soidated company are of most sub st3ntial construction and reflects credit upon both manager and engi- neer.
 It only new remains fer the Hudson Reservoir company to get to work up- on their noted dam site below the mouth of Tonto creek on Salt river when the immense area covered by the Consolidated Canal company will be assured an ample and constant supply Of water and is bound to become one of the most productive sections of country on the face of the earth.

 From the headgates on the Salt river to the division gates just north of Mesa is 3 canal eight miles in length, forty five feet wide at bottom, with a seven foot cut throughout and capacity of 50, 900 inches.
 At the division are three sets of gates facing east, south and west and from these gates the water courses away to- of the most remarkable occurrences ever met with in irrigation engineer ing. The east gate discharges into what is kncwn as the eastern branch of the Consolidated canal and this branch is twenty feet in bottom, with three loot cut throughout, and . capacity of 17,000 inches.

Owing to it's elevation above the lower valley, the tempera- ture at this point is ten degrees higher in the coolest nights, than at Phoenix, and the air both day and night is soft and balmy. It is an ideal spot for an ideal home. where every man can live under his own vine and fig tree, and be as nearly at peace with himself, his neigh boFs and the world as his disposition wiN allow Surrounded with the choicest fruits and vegetables a semi tropical climate can produce, he can if he chooses, be the most independent man in the world; his table supplied with produce of his own raising-to- matoes at Christmas, green peas at New Year, asparagus on Washington's birthday and spring chicken the year round; gather from his own trees and vines grape fruit for his breakfast. strawberries for luncheon, and dine on his cWn oranges.

Chief among the canals on the south side of Salt river is the Consolidated It is the successor to and an enlarge naent of the Mesa canal, which was constructed twenty-one years ago by the sturdy settlers Of that early time. More than eight years have now elapsed since the new company ac- quired the Mesa franchise, and during that time an immense quantity of work has been accomplished. The head gates are now as substantial a piece of work as can be seen in Arizona or elsewhere. The gates are fifty feet in width by twenty-seyen in height, with heavy granite wings and abutments tied into the bedrock with steel drift belts. The coping courses of these wings and abutments are laid with red sandstone and not only are these works of solid and substantial character throughout but they present a very

Union Of Arizona is endeavOring to push work in about twenty different departments. Each department is un- der the leadership of an efficient wo- man. and while as much as we desire is not being accomplished, still there is being performed telling amount Of practical aggressive work.
 The tenth annual convention, held il Phoenix last year, showed marker progress and was full of encourage ment. The officers elected were as fol- lows: President, Mrs 4. B. Buckley, Phoenix; vice president, Mrs. M E.. White, Tempe; corresponding secre- tary, Mrs. F. V. Curns, Phoenix; re- cording secretary, Mrs. J. L. Munds, Prescott; treasurer, Mrs. A. NJ. Doan, Florence.
 There are seven local Woman's Christian Temperance Unions in our territory, located in the following towns: Casa Grande, Florence, Flag staff, Mesa, Prescott, Phoenix anG Tempe. The union in Phoenix is per- haps the largest in point of member ship, and is doing a grand wloTk in maintaining a free circulating library a cOzy reception and resting room for ladies, and free reading room in which can be found daily papers from Chicago, Denver, Phoenix and San Francisco. Many weekly and monthly periodicals are also found upon the tables. The room is kept in a healthy and sanitary condition, but a larger and more commodious building is greatly needed by the union, and it is expected that they will soon erect 2 building commensurate with increas- ing requirements. The officers for the Phoenix union are as follows: Presi- dent, Mrs. A. B. Buckley; vice presi dent, Mrs. A. E. Battin; corresponding secretary, Mrs. I. Jones; recording sec retary, Mrs. J. ". Thomas; treasurer. Mrs J. A Sturges.
 In this brief article it is utterly inn possible to give an adequate resume of the work of the Woman's Chris titan Temperance Unions of Ari- zona. or to make logical dee larations of the principles of belief and action which govern them. but we leave the results of our work to eterpity's light, and lifting the golden latch of each new door which opens out to larger service and re- sponsibility. we enter with steady tread to meet each days work that comes to us. having for inspiration in service the thought that it matters not if the organist is invisible so long as the music floods the air.

SUBURBAN HOMES
Interesting Points About An Infcr-
 eSEing Suburb of Phoenix.

Visitors and tourists who come to the Salt River valley to get the benefit of it's mild winters are looking more and more to outside property upon which to locate homes, away from the city with the usual attendant disad- vantages of urban life, into the coun- try, where they can enjoy uncontami- hated the health-giyng air blowing from the mountains surrounding the valley.
 Orangawood, the most attractive suburb of the valley, was planned to meet this demand. It is fine level tract of land two miles long and a mile wide, lying along Central avenue, about i've miles north of Phoenix Orangewood is one of the most protected spots in the citrus belt. The mountains lie beth north and east of it and protect 1t from damaging frosts in the winter, and make as well a beautiful and pie turesque background for this gem of

 Growth of Phoenix.

One of the most attractive and best equipped real estate offices in Arizona is that of w. J. Murphy at 102 West Adams street, the corner room on the first floor Of the O'Nein block. There is 9 cOmmCdions front office for the general transaction of business fitted up after the style of a bank. Opening from this is Q well constructed vault and rooms for special work, private office, etc
 MT Murphy came to this country some sixteen years ago. and has been closely identified with the progress of Phoenix and the valley ever since. Not only IS the valley indebted to him for it's largest irrigating canal, but it was lar gely through his efforts that Phoe- nix was connected with the outer world by railway. He has also been the means of large investment here of out eide capital MT. Murphy having been connected continuously since he came here with lands and irrigating canals, it has given his exceptional advant- ages fer being well informed as to values both of city and country prop critics, and his sales list comprises a large amount Of land i'll all parts Of the valley, and also Of Phoenix city prop erty.
 During the past year Mir. Murphy has been making leans a speciality cf his business, has succeeded in bringing some .cw-rate money from the outside and has placed some large loans here,
 In reply to the reporters question, AIr Murphy said he fr5~ never known sych activity in real estate in this val ley as at pl esent. That during the past three months he had sold 2,4Z0 acres of land besides about $12OOO worth of city property.
 In speaking of the prospect for or angcs in the valley Mir Murphy said that the recent b}izzards which extend cd as far south as the orange bet in Florida and frozc things solid in New Orleans, seemed to show that there was no t.ue orange belt outside of southern Arizona and California, that horticulturists ale aPpreclatin5 this
