From an historical standpoint, there is no more interesting or as prominent a gentleman alive today in either New Mexico or Arizona, in so far as Prescott and all Arizona fig
 ures, as can be said of Col. Frank Chavez, who is superintendent of pub lie instruction under Governor Otero. Col. Chavez in 1863 was the com manding officer of a regiment of New Mexico volunteer cavalry, and it was while as such that he was ordered to escort the gubernatorial party to Ari- zona in the organization of the terri tory Last night, in speaking to a reporter of this paper, Col. Chavez stated that his command of 1855 picked men performed that duty, and from Santa Fe, the starting point, to Navajo springs where the flag was first unfurled and Arizona organized, he had no trouble whatever, saying in a whisper tits d-d good thing no one bump ed up against us, either" Colonel Chavez relates many pleasant remin- iscences of that far away day and in facing the present remarkably chang ed condition of the scenes-transpor tatiOn facilities, security of life, mod ern buildings, mode of living, and peculiaIities of people, this old soldier is truly an interesting and instructive person to talk with. He says he Handed" the party at old Fort Whip pie, now Chino valley, twenty five miles north of Prescott, and remained with them for two months, when he returned to duty in New Mexico. Again, while yet Colonel of the First, he again came with his command to Prescott, on matters of a military na- ture. but returned to New Mexico and was mustered out at the close of the war. As early as 1855, Colonel Chavez passed through Southern Arizona over the old Butterfeld stage route, going to California and re- maining but short time. In all the years of his military life. the priva- tions and dangers that faced him in the performance of a duty, Colonel Chavez today comes up smilinglyand joyfully, and does not show in his physique the ''wear and tear" of those troublesome days. His memory
 too, is wonderfully retentive, and he
 recalls from the shadowy past, long
 string of incidents and and scores oi
 names of people, some of whom arc
 still alive, but many have gone ovel | the divide. Colonel Chavez belongs
 to the old school of American soldiers
 and there is nothing too good for that
 class in the estimation of people whc are familiar with the rough doings O
 the day on the American frontier
 May he live long and in again pilot

New Mexico and Arizona Governors With Their StafTs Reach Prescott Yesterday En Route to
 the Statehood Con-
 Yentiun.
WILL THERE BE TWO MORE
 STARS ADDED TO OLD GLORY 2
Colonel Frank Chavez of New rIexico, is With the Party ,---fie Escorted the First Governor in 18o3' When Arizona Was Organized at Navajo Springs.

To those advocates of statehood for
 Arizona as well as New Mexico, and
 to those who have but an apathetic regard for the question, the arrival yesterday in Prescott of Governor Otero and staff, of New Mexico, es- corted by Governor Murphy, of Ari- zona, it is apparent that there is a significance to the movement of fav- orable nature, and that the sister ter ritories are for once cooperating in jealous and earnest manner to be relieved of burden which in a con- stitutional sense makes each but a ward of the government. Whether or not each is to be accorded the rights of state sovereignty the com ing winter, lively and interesting phase of the question is to be consid cred and discussed in joint conven- ton today at the Arizona capital. If nothing good results, no harm will follow. The hearty cooperation of New Mexico, however, is pretty fea ture of a question that is being so generally discussed today throughout the nation, and it demonstrates that in interest and fidelity to each other, the two territories are kindred in the statehood link.
 Sojourning in Prescott but a few hours, during which time the distin- guished visitors were permitted to view the city, to see and be seen, and to be dined by Governor Murphy at the Burke, they proceeded to Phenix, arriving there this morning.
 With Governor Otero were the fol- lowing members of his official family: Col. Frank Chavez, W. R. Tipton, T. s. Hubbell, W. H. Whitman and c. J. Gavin.
 Governor Murphy and Surgeon General Walker of his staff met and formally welcomed to Arizona at Ash Fork Governor Otero and staff.
 The visitors are genial and intel ligent looking body of men, and aside from being favorably impressed with Arizona's industrial claims, are just as enthusiastic also over our senti- ment for statehood as they are for their own commonwealth, believing as they do that each subdivision of the southwest should be accorded harmonious consideration in the fight for recognition.
 Governor Otero is a young man, not yet 40 years of age, and is SO prominently identified with New Mexico and so enthusiastic over its advancement and government as to recently receive recess appointment from our late president as governor for four more years. He is pleasant gentleman, easy and graceful in his manners and has that western char acteristic and demeanor that makes his fellowship agreeable from start to finish. Another prominent New Mex ican with the party, who has been be- fore the public for years, is T. $. Hubbell, at present sheriff of Berna- lilo county MT. Hubbell has served his people in this capacity for twelve years and is entering another term. He is, too, an excellent official and an agreeable person, and at the last cleo tion received a heavier majority than has ever been given anyone in his county.

BLOCK SIGNAL SYSTEM
FOR THE CONSOLIDATED

The Worcester Consolidated Street
Railway Company has ordered the new
appliances for putting in system OF
block signals on its Grafton and Burn
coat Street lines and as soon as they
are installed the management Will in
stall the system on the Grant Square
and Normal School lines.
The new system Of signals is expect
ed tg keep the cars closer to their run
ming time. especially on those lines
where the turnouts are not within
sight Of each other. The company has
experienced great difficulty In main
tanning its time schedule on the Graf
ton line because three different com
panies operate cars on this line and
when one car gets off it's schedule, the
other two are thrown off and 1t is not
long before the three lines are running
on rag time.
The new system calls for block
signal at every turnout, which on the
Grafton line are z IL minutes apart.
When a car reaches one Of the turn
outs, it makes an electric connection
that throws light, white light when
the track is open TO the next turnout.
If there is a car between the turnOuts
the car to reach the turnout finds a
red light. indicating it must remain on
the turnout until the car passes. In
this way the conductors know Where
they are at all the time and no car
need get off its scheduled time more
than or minutes.
The same system viii be installed on
the RurncOat Street line but the sig
mails will be only 1 II minutes apart
so that the cars can keep close to their
running time. When one Of the Burn
coat Street cars gets off its time II in
terferes with every car on Main Street
and this difficulty will be remedied by
the new system

attitude of the government of Belgium

preaching Great Britain for the pur-
pose of obtaining better treatment for
the people in the camps

cupants of which were Mrs. Steyn, the
