Every now and again. during the year
that followed. audacious thoughts filled
Dicky's mind as he gazed on his most
cherished pOssessions-two withered
roses Soon after. however, he usually
read in some newspaper one OF the num-
erous accounts Of Nella's transatlantic
success. Then his splendid hopes col
lapsed dismally. Yet they we're always
there. and though he did not know IT,.
grew stronger. and stronger, until they
became part of his life.
At last Nella came back. She was to
open the autumn season at her old thea
ter. and once more Dicly could see her
every night. He played first instead OF
second violin now. and his position had
been altered TO one from which he had a
far better view OF the stage.
It was not that thought, however,
which set his heart pounding with eN-
element as ne went toward the theater
that day-the day on which ne was to be-
hold her again after a year. In his heart
there was a great hope that she would
recognize him in some way or another
Surely she must. Then he would wait at
the stage door, and perhaps she would
speak 10 him again
Bitter and terrible was his disappoint-

BY ERNEST HERBERT.

~ ICKY AUBER had often read OF
cases like his own-with this
important difference. the stories
usually ended happily. whereas he knew
that for himself II would be madness to
hope for anything save disappointment.
He was in love. desperately, madly IN
love with Nella Renshaw. a clever and
popular actress. the admired OF all ad-
mirers.
He enshrined her I'm his heart the very
FIRST time he saw her. which was on the
day on which he commenced his engage
ment as violinist in the orchestra OF the
London theater at which she was playing
a leading part.
He made no effort 10 check this hope
less love. which grew and grew as he
watched her night after night
he could only see her when the ac-
tion OF the piece brought her well for
ward upon the stage; but he soon learn
ed 10 know when these places came. and
was always ready for her so as not 10
lose a single second OF the time that
she was in his view
Once her eyes met his upturned gaze.

A Deserved Compliment to

Brigadier-General Leonard Wood will sail today or tomorrow for the Philip pines, to take up his new assignment as commander of the military department of Mindanao. and the secretary of war has paid him a deserved and timely compliment by issuing the following order:
 By direction of the president. Brig adier-General Leonard Wood, U g. A, having filed the report which completes his service as military governor of Cuha and as commander of the military forces stationed in that island from December, 1899, to the close of the American occupation, is relieved from further duty In connection with the affairs of the former military govern ment of Cuba.
 The adminiStra ton of General Wood as military commander of the division and the department of Cuba, as mili- tary governor, was highly creditable The civil government was managed with an eye single to the benefit of the Cuban people. under the supervision and control of heimilitary governor The Cuban people themselves had an

Voters at the School Election.

There is considerable uncertainty as to the qualification necessary to enable one to vote at today's school election. and misunderstanding have been rath- CT increased by statements which aI,- peared in local paper yesterday even and liberal, and admits of no miscon- struction. Section PIC of the Revised Statutes reads:
 Every person, male or female, of the age of twenty-one years or over, who is a citizen of the United States, and who has been a resident of the district for thirty days immediately preceding the day of election, and who is the parent or guardian of a child of school age residing in the district, or who has paid a territorial or county school tax, exclusive of poll tax, during the pre- ceding yearSs eligible to the office Of trustee, and shall be entitled to vote at any school district election, provided that every woman offering to vote at such election (who is otherwise quail fled under this section) and whose hus- band or father is or was a citizen oi the United States, shall be treated and considered as a citizen of the United States for the purpose of voting at such election
 Any woman. therefore Cor any man) | who has resided in the district thirty days and is the parent or guardian of a child of school age residing in the dis trict, or any person who has paid ter ritorial or county school tax in this county in the past year, can vote today
 Every voter in Phoenix can vote fo. 1 two school directors-one director fo, the grammar school and one director l for the high school Country residents of the high school district can vote fol one director of the high school.

The Misguided People of Florence.

According to the Blade, published at Florence. the people of that commun- ity, including the Blade itself, are pur- suing very foolish course. The idea appears to prevail in that section that the interests of Florence and of the middle Gila valley will be served by at tacking the people of the Salt River valley and especially such citizens of this community as have taken the lead in the campaign for a government res ervoir on the Salt river. It is assumed at Florence, it seems. that the prospects for the San Carlos reservoir will be i'm proved by fighting the Salt river proj- ect. This is a very unwise attitude for Florence to take. But the folly is not confined to a childish hostility to this section. The men who have elected themselves leaders of sentiment at Florence are so exceedingly unwise as to attack the secretary of the interior and the high officials of the geological survey. Why? Merely because the J reservoir on the Salt river for early construction, and as yet has not desig- mated San Carlos.
 The opinion prevails at Florence, it seems. that by some unfair method nos explained the government has been in duced to undertake the reservoir on the Salt ahead of the reservoir on the Gila. If this were true, matters would not be merded by pursuing the policy upon which the misguided men of Florence have set out. But, as matter of facc, there is no basis for the belief. From first to last every step taken in support of the project for storage for this valley has been taken honestly, openly and Id the light of day; and there have been neither secrets nor underhanded meth ods connected with it.
 Further, not hand has been raised or word spoken against the Sa l Carlos scheme. On the contrary, Phoe- nix and the valley generally have had and hold a very friendly feeling for the aspirations of the people of Florence. The leaders in the movement here have had the intelligence to understand that there is no conflict of interest between the storage schemes for the two rivers. Moreover, it would have been impossi- ble to mislead the government had there been a wish to do so. Govern ment engineers made their investiga- tions at San Carlos and full reports were made thffeon before they took up the Investigations at the Tonto basin. The integrity of these engineers is above question, and their reports on the two enterprises have been open to the world for months. There are cer- tain engineering reasons why the gov ernment is inclined to begin the reser- voir on the Salt among the first. But it by no means follows that the secre- tary cannot be induced to undertake the San Carlos reservoir also in the near future-provided the people to be benefited thereby do not make it impos- sible

opportunity to carry on their govern ment to constantly-increas degrees, so that when Cuba assumed her inde- pendence, shc started with the best possible chance of success.
 Out of an utterly prostrate colony, a free republic was built up. The new nation started under more favorable condition than has ever before been the case in a single instance among her fellow Spanish American republics. This good record stands alone in his tory, and the benefit conferred upon the people of Cuba was no greater than the honor conferred upon the people of the United States.
 "The war department, by direction of the President, thanks General Wood and the officials, civil and military, serving under him. upon the comple- ton of work so difficult so important and so well done"
 Secretary Root does not place too high an estimate upon the services of Leonard Wood. Not only has that young mar earned the everlasting gratitude of the people of Cuba, but he
  gations as heavy, and he has fully earned every promotion that he has received He practically fills the Amer ican ideal of energy and sanity. There is no man known to the public who is so completely fitted for the task of act ually pacifying the natives of Min danao, and if they are not willing to accept American sovereignty without reservation after a years experience under the rule of General Wood, the task of pacincation may be given up as Governor Taft gives General Wood T free hand So far, unfortunately. Gov ernor Taft. notwithstanding his many admirable qualities, has not succeeded always ih making a success of his re- lations with the military.
 If however, differences do arise between Taft and Wood, it is easy to imagine upon< which side President Roosevelt's favor will fall. But it is not probable that there will be prolong ed opportunity for possible differences. It is more likely that Woods assign ment to the command Of Mindanao is the forerunner of his appointment as governor general of the Philippines. Governor Taft has had a hard task and upon the whole has performed it most satisfactorily, and in the nature Of things he will be entitled to relief at lc distant day.
 When Leonard Wood is made gover- nor-gcneral of the Philippines his great opportunity will come. The question of winning over the F'ilipinos to a cordial acceptance of American rule will then be put to the final test. If Wood o;;n not succeed it is not within the possibil- ities for anybody to succeed. And if. perchance, it is in the fates for the United States to be compellad to under- Ike the suppression of another insur- rection in the Philippines, we shall he lucky in having General Wood on the ground. Under his leadership another war, should one occur, would not leave the Filipinos with any doubt as to ;lle foolishncss of opposing the military arm of this governmen.
