A FAMOUS ACTOR
Arrived in Phoenix Yesterday, MT.
 Thom as Oberle and Family.

Mir. Thomas Oberle, wife and son, of New York, arrived at the Hotel Adams yesterday. MT. Oberle is an actor, whose name is familiar in every great city of this country.

For twelve years he has been a member of the Lamb s club, the most exclusive actors organ ization in the world.

 Until about two weeks ago he was playing the Colonel" in Arizona" !" He had not been in good health, and Dr. Quinlan, whom he consulted. told him that he was afflicted with tuber- culosis, and ordered him to a warm, dry climate.
 The same afternoon Mr. Oberle told the story of his affliction to the mem bers of his company. They were grief stricken, and urged him to act upon the physicians orders at once. MT. Oberle replied that he could afford neither the expense nor the idleness of

REDUCING THE WAR TAX.

Washington, Nov. 23.-Chairman Payne and Representatives Dalzell and Hepburn. acting as a subcommittee, spent a portion of the day drafting a bill to amend the war revenue law. The general provisions of the bill have been agreed upon. The reduction to be made will be in the stamp taxes, as heretofore indicated.
 A member of the committee said to- day that although there was some discussion concerning the reductions upon beer and also on cigars, cigar cites and tobacco, there did not seem to be any inclination to reduce the present tax on these articles as long as there remained the stamp taxes which. he admitted, were obnoxious to every one using them. The committee expects to present the bill to the house cn the first or second day of the ses- sion.

AN EARLY MEETING C
Of the Committee on Military Affairs Has Been Called-The Drafting of a Bill For the Reduction of the War Revenue Tax Going on. The Obnoxious Stamp Taxes Will Come Off First.

Washington, Nov. 23.-Chairman Hull, of the house committee of mili- tary affairs. today called a meeting of the committee for next Tuesday. Ut will be in the direction of economy to pass the army bill without delay" said MT. Hull. The army now in the Phil ippines will have to be brought home in the summer-that is. those men who do not care to re-enlist. The trans ports which go out for them should depart laden with troops who go to replace them. else the ships will make one voyage empty.
 MT. Hull said his impression was that the president wanted authority to raise an army sufficient for the needs of the country, 100000 men, if necessary, the number to be reduced when there was no longer any use for them.

comes, the municipal farmers scrape all the good dirt off in winrows near the gutters and haul it away in wag- ons ito the lower end of town. Then
 the grain wagons, delivery wagons, farm wagons, and in fact all the pop ulation is engaged for a month or so in helping to plant the streets-a little here and little there-till the seed is evenly distributed all over. By this time the street is thor oughly dried up and the street ear track has changed from a swamp to a. chuck hole, so the mu- nicipal farmers get together and haul the dirt all back again. That covers the seed nicely and the sprinkling carts provide the daily moisture that aids In germination. The bitumen in the crosswalks is believed to be the most fertile soil in the whole area and the water carts pay particular atten- tion to these places.
 A professor in an agricultural college. who recently visited Phoenix, gave it as his opinion that at least 'steen bush els of almost anything could be raised on Washington street, which is the most thoroughly cultivated, if the mu- nicipal farmers would only fence the streets and keep off the heavy traffic. He also suggested that the wheels of the heavy sprinkling carts were de- structive to a certain extent but he thought that difficulty could be over come by putting pneumatic tires on the water wagons.
 A New York visitor, admiring the fertile oasis between the postoffice and the Nemon hotel, remarked that this idea of farming the streets was a nov el one to him, and told one of the far mers that in his country they used the streets to walk and drive on. The far mer replied that if they wanted to do anything like that in Phoenix, they would have to bring in the streets when it rained. He said the matter of using them for highways had been experimented with here a number of times, but it was always a failure. If they left them out in the wet and drove over them. they would stay muddy for a month or two and would afterward be so rough that if any one had driving to do he would always go out on the Tempe road or Central avenue.
 The stranger then suggested that they might pave the streets or part of them. He said that he stopped a day or two in Tempe on his way to Phoe- nix, and noticed that the Tempe peo- pie had about the prettiest streets he ever saw; that they were covered over a few inches deep with a nice concrete or cement, hauled from the adjacent hills. and that it seemed to be just the thing. They told him there that it didn't cost much, either, and really they thought the streets were more valuable for commercial than agri- cultural purposes. The Phoenix man replied that he didn't know; that might be true, but Phoenix didn't like to spend much money on these new-fan- gled ideas.
 However, he said that the next time the municipal farmers held an insti- tute, he would bring up the subject.

THE NATIONAL GUARD.
A Move to Make It More Uniform and
 Effective

Washington, Nov. 23.-At a meeting of the Interstate National guard asso citation, to be held in this city two weeks hence, steps toward most impor- tant changes in the national guard organizations of the different states will be taken. The meeting will be at tended by the adjutants-gener of nearly every state in the union, who will confer with General Miles, Adju tant-General Corbin and other prom inent officers of the regular army, and with members of congress, for the pur- pose of promoting national legislation that promises to work sweeping changes in the militia of the coun- try and convert it into an effective re- serve force for the regular army.
 The guardsmen will endeavor to se-, cure the passage by congress of measure for the exchange of the Springfield rifle, now in the hands of the national guard forces throughout the country, and their replacement with Krag- -Jorgensen rifles. the arm now used by the regular army. It is hoped that the change may be effected without expense to the states.
