chapters of her story, Prisoners of Hope. :
Sh,. is an attractive girl. with character
istics of a Virginia woman. In CONVEX
salion she is Particularly clever, but upon
the subject of her literary success she IS
reticent.
Her Virginia ancestry is a topic upon
which she willingly furnished some in
formation On her paternal side, she IS
descended from Peter Johnston, who set
tied in Virginia in 1727. and who gave
the site upon which now stands the col
lese of Sidney. The planter,
the soldier, the legislator are found in
direct line. Her unother belonged to a
Scoth-Irish family in West Virginia, the
#Alexanders of Morefeld. One of Miss
Johns tons great uncles was a lieutenant
of Light Horse Harry Lees, while her
great -great- GRANDPA ts1er Nash. Of Temple
ton Manor, was a member of the Virginia
House of Burgesses.

 Globe has recently followed the eX- ample of other cities by incorporating, and already shows much improvement under municipal government.
 Prof. Woodward reports that in eve " district that he visited the people are most loyal to the university. They are glad to send their sons and daugh- ters here, after satisfying themselves that the young people will have the best of care and protection.

THE UP TO DATE COLLAR
With Which MT. B. Heym.n Had Q
 Set To.

When Mir. B. Heyman returned to somewhat disheveled state. Mrs. Heyman met him and urged him to dress up. Get another kind of col lar" said she: the kind you've b5en wearing for the last twenty-five or thirty years has gone out of style. Get some of these new up-to-date, up to-your-ear kind of collars
 MT. Heyman w5nt to a friend on Kearncy street and asked for the latest thing in collars. He took one home and with the assistance of Mrs. Heyman put it on after half an hour of eX- periments. NIr. Heyman felt as if he were in jail. but his friends all told him he was looking so much better than they had ever seen him: You seem to be twenty years younger" said one. than y5u Were a year ago. You're getting heshy." said another. Every man likes to look young and every thin man is delighted -o have his friends observe that he is getting fat
 Mir. Heyman attributed his improved personal appearance to his Eiffel tower collar and resolved to never wear any other kind. He bought a lot more of them and became s3 much of an adept in their adjustment that he could put one on without help in ten minutes. He returned to Phoenix last Sunday morn ing, and after lunch prepared to go down and dazzle the inhabitants with his Kearney street collars. He found one and tried to put it on. He buttoned one end and found the other an inch too short. Then he unbottoned that end and buttoned the other. The first was an inch and half too short. MT. Heyman saw he would have to have help. Mrs. Hoylnan had gone out to see a neighbor and there was nobody else about the house. MT. Heyman again attacked the collar single handed and alone and was again defeated. He began to think that his San Francisco friends were not the victims of imag- ination when they said he was getting fat: he wished they could see him now when he was fat. He began to think of inquiring at the drug store the next morning for remedy for obesity.

sports of camp life are introduced These consist of some skillful aero batic work Suddenly an alarm IS sounded. The Americans have com menced to storm San Juan. The bonn bardment is terrific InnumerabIe shells burst within the walls and scat terrific and the rapid concussions If dynamite cartridges feel like blows in the face. To the noise of the pyro- technics is added the deafening cheer ing of the American forces who by this time have taken the wall and are rush ing into the Notifications before head quarters. A block house Is captured and fired. The armies fire vOlleys into each ether and then come hand tO hand. The slaughter is great. At last to the music of loud cheers, In which the spectators join, the Stars and Stripes are run up the pole and San Juan has surrendered to the Americans The band plays an appropriate air and the victors marc h off with their pris- oners
 After the battle there was an exhi- bi,ion of pyrotechnics. A large staff of skilled men conducted the exhibition and there was no accident and no loss of time. Ingenious and beautiful set pieces alternated with gorgeous rockets and explosive bombs. In all the spec tacle was very pleasing.

WE'RE BOUND TO HAVE IT
Water Storage Is One of the Things
 Assured.

The second meeting Of the general committee appointed to investigate plans for a permanent and adequate water supply was held al the board of trade roomT yesterday morning. Twenty of tie thirty members of the committee were present, an eXtraor- dinary attendance, seeing that there could have been no developments of inn portance since the last meeting last Friday. The object of yesterdays 5 meeting was to confer with the sub committees. which had little to report except progress, continued enthusiasm and growing confidence that the move ment would end in success.
 The damslte committee reported that it had made arrangements, to visit the Hudson reservoir site and all others under consideration. This committee will be provided with a camping outfit and will spend about two weeks in the field.
 Dr. J. M. Ford will bring back from the neighborhood of the Hudson res ervoir site several samples of rock for analysis to ascertain if it can be con verted into Portland cement. He said he had talked with experts who told him that an excellent quality of cement could be made there. Other experts had said it could not. So there are eX- perts and experts, and both views are mere opinions. since it appears that no scientific investigation has ever been made of the rock in that vicinity. If it is found to be possible to make ce- ment a long step will have been taken toward reservoir constructor. It is estimated that the cement required on the work would cost laid down there about $7 a barrel and would amount altogether to "a per cent of the whole cost of construction. If it can be made at ali on the ground it would not cost. the doctor thinks, more than 75 cents a barrel. The settlement of the char acter of the rock in that vicinity is an important feature of the committees investigation.
 Ire only new business transacted yesterday was the appointment of V. L. Clark, J. B. Hoover w. A. Wilson, w. A. Kimball and J. T. Priest to assist the finance committee in soliciting sub- scriptions to pay the necessary eX- penses of the investigation. The mem- bers of the committee are not only giv- ing their time without charge, but are paying their own personal expenses.
 A meeting of the executive commit tee will be held al 10 o'clock on Mon- day, and on Tuesday another meeting of the general committee will be held. All citizens in the county interested in this movement are invited to be pres ent at the latter meeting.
 After the close of yesterdays confer ence Dave Goldberg, the chairman of the finance committee, said: "There was very little to be done today, but I wish to say that the people of the county may feel assured that We are going to have water storage"

THE CITY SCHOOLS
Preparations For Their Opening Next
 Week.

The city schools will reopen their doors next week. Every citizen. what ever his political or social utilization. Phoenix should be proud of her bright boys and girls, proud of her well built and well equipped schooI buildings and of teachers whose ability and skill are evident in the results of their work.
 The school board has shown wisdom in providing for the pupils of the gram mar school a convenient lunch and waiting room Under the present rules the scholars being forbidden the use of the school rooms out of school hours. this was a real necessity. Racks and slight shelter for bicycles would also be a great convenience.
 A subscriber to The Republican says: Tt would be favor to many patrons of the school if both the high school and th- grammar school could adjourn for the noon intermission at 12 m. in stead of at 12:30. as at present" Pos sibly this cannot be done with profit to the schools, but the question should receive consideration.
 PareT-S should do their part toward making; the schools a success by seeing that their children are prompt and reg at home 10 respect and obey their teachers. At best the teachers task is a difficult one and it can be made much easier by the cordial cooperation of the parents-

nothing seen in san Francisco these several years has excelled Pains Mil itary Spectacle of the battle of San Juan Hill. The fireworks part of the show was especially worth seeing. Residents in the vicinity of Sixteenth and Folsom streets are favored. For two weeks they will be seeing things in the heavens.
 About 6.500 persons were on the grounds last night when the bugle sounded for the opening of the per- formance. The semi-circle of seats faced a section of the defenses of San Juan, with a portion of the Spanish army in view. Here and there were groups of Red Cross nurses, insurgent prisoners, tattered Cuban women. A soldier was being buried. Every de- tail was copied faithfully. A prayer is said by a Spanish friar as the funer- al moves away. Then a prisoner is tried by drumhead court martial and child plead with General Lipares for mercy, but he waves them away just as the spectators begin to fear he will spare the prisoner and thereby cheat them of the spectacle of an execution. The condemned is blindfllded and shot by a file of supers. The supers. by the way-and there are 300 of them--are well trained.
 To pass the time before the attack
