THE TEMPE NORMAL
Some Information for Those Who Ex.
 peet to Become Pupils.

The Tempe Normal school of Arizona will open on Monday, August 31, for a forty weeks term, says Professor A. J. Matthews, the principal, and the in- dications are that the attendance will far exceed that of any previous year in the history of the institution. The attendance last year was 172 in the normal department and A in the train- ing school. The new dormitory will be completed and will accommodate sev- enty young women; the one erected last year will be used for the young men and will accommodate twenty-four. Ip reply to many inquiries. MT. Matthews would state that students are not eX- pected to provide anything for rooms or table. The rooms are large and well ventilated, and each is provided with two wardrobe closets, city hydrant water, electric light and furnace heat. The furnishings include study table
 chairs, dressers, two single beds with - he necessary bedding and linen. There Are several bathrooms provided with hot and cold water on each floor. The furnishings of the two large parlors and sitting room are up-to-date in ev- cry respect, including a high grade piano which is at the disposal of the Normal students, and the spacious

NO DOUBT UNTRUE
That Herbert E. Nays Has Resigned
 From Naval Academy.

An article appeared in The Republi- can yesterday morning in which it was stated that Herbert F.. Rays of this city lately admitted to the United States Militart academy had resigned on account of a weak heart. The in formation was taken from Baltimore newspaper which gave list of fifteen nidshipmen who had failed from one cause or another to fully qualify for admission.
 There is reason to hope that Q mis- take has been made in the case of Midship,nan Rays. who by the way was the only one of the fifteen. men, toned as having resigned. The others were all rejected for physical or mental reasons.
 Mr. Emory Rays, the father of Her bert Rays and who has also another son in the third year of the academy. said yesterday that he had heard noth- ing of his sons resignation. He was quite sure that a mistake had been made :or he would have been informed of it at once by him or his brother, who have had time to write since the action described in the paper took place.
 His son had already passed physi- cal examination which was understood to be entirely satisfactory
 Mir Rays also said that there had never been suspicion of heart trouble.
 Among the cadets mentioned in the Baltimore paper as having been re- jecte6f was the representative of Ha wGii

halls and wide verandes contribute t. their pleasure and comfort.
 The dormitoriss are model homes for students, that for the young women being under the direct supervision of an experienced preceptress.
 The rates in both dornitories are s15 per month for beard and room.
 It may be of interest to young men or young women who desire to prepare for the teaching profession to know that the diplomas of the Tempe Normal school are granted for life and are officially accredited by the state boards of education of California and Wash ington. Two full courses are offered the English and the Latin. The latter course prepares students for the uni versailles of Arizona and California.
 Students who desire to attend the Normal may secure half rates over all the railroads of the territory when o1i their way to or from the school, but in order to secure them it is necessary to make application to the principal at least ten days in advance.
 It is hoped that all students who eX- pect to attend the Normal the first semester will endeavor to enter as soon as possible.
 The catalogue for 190S-4 will be for warded to interested parties upon ap- plication.

One of the most enjoyable incidents of his trip says Col. McClintock, was T day spent at Santa Cruz as the guest of Col. Seymour, the commanding ofii- cer of the Second regiment of infantry and one troop Of cavalry of the Cali fornia national guard which was en- joying it's annual encampment thero.
 And there was one other incident of his trip that should be mentioned for the purpose of giving as much publicity as possible to a mistaken idea that the travelling public from the east has re- specting hot weather in the southwest and who it belongs to. While crossing the Coloroado desert he chanced to OVerhear a conversation in which a lady was commenting up n the wonder ful contrast between the orange and olive groves of California and the [ hillowy sands and burning heat of Arizona. He took the trouble then | to canvass thc car and learned to his surprise that nearly every person in it, except a few local travellers. thought they were in Arizona as soon as they left the green fields and tree-covcrHd farms of Banning. As sand and hot weather were in evidence they sup posed of course they must be in Ari-
 
 tion had led them to believe that this is the worst place ever and they knew nothing could be worse than the Colo rado desert. Col. McClintock then in formed his travelling companions of their error and explained most care fully that the two real bad deserts in the southwest, the Colorado and the Mohave, are both in California the famous and that as soon as they reached the much maligned Yuma. which was yet many miles away. they would feel a lowering tempera ture. d more refreshing atmosphere and q landscape that would at least ba varied with mountains and rocks and some indication that they were again in the white settlements. The truth is bad enough for Arizona in the good old summer time, but this territory re- fuses tC stand the opprobrium of Cali fornia's short comings.

COL. n'CLINT0CK'S RETURN
Some of the Incidents of His Visit to
 California.

Col. J. H. McClintock returned yes
 terday morning from d vacation of a few weeks in California and reports
 having had a most excellent time. Mrs.
 McClintock. who left here with him, is still with friends in San Francisco and will remain till cooler weather
 They went from here to Los Angeles, then Coronado, Catalina and other sea side resorts for short visits. At Cata- lima they tried their luck fishing The colonel says he has nothing to say and will leave all the fish stories for his wife to tell, she having proved the better angler.
 As has been noted in The Republi
 cans dispatches Col McClintock at
 tended the national convention of Spanish War Veterans at San Fran
 cisco and was honored with election as one of the two vice commanders Of the order. The other is ior Slime of California and the commander is Gen. Owen O. Summers who commanded regiment of Washington volunteers ill the Philippines. The office Of vice commander is really purely honorary and Col. MCClintock's duties in the position are not nearly SO strenuous as his duties as commander of the depart ment of Arizona and New Mexico. The principal subject of discussion during the convention was that of consolidat- ing all the societies of Spanish war veterans and it is believed that will shortly he accomplished. The opposi- ton to the movement heretofore has
 been headed by W. C. Liller of Penn sylva nian, who was formerly adjutant but deposed year ago at the Indian apolis meeting. He refused to surren- der his office, however. claiming the Indianapolis convention to be illegal. and held on till shortly before the
 San Francisco convention when he rendered his resignation, thus remov-
 ing the chief obstacle to the consolida- tiOn of the various organiza tions.
 On the way home Col. McClintock re- ceived a letter in Los Angeles from Yuma requesting him to stop there and
 institute a post of the s. A. w. V.
 which he did Saturday night. It is
 called O'Nein post and has about twenty-five members. The Yuma sol diers were very hospitable, a sumptu-
 ous banquet being among the ways they had of testifying to the fact.

FREAKS OF TEMPERATURE
How Hot Weather Affects Local Spec
 ulative Investments.

There is no doubt but that last Thurs day was an extremely hot day. Gus Hirschfield says he thinks it was one of the most oppressive days he ever saw, and it was really surprising the way some people worked considering how hot it was. Most of them were working the Palace policy shop. and that is why MT. Hirschfeld noticed the unusual heat Not that he was hot him self. On the contrary. his blood was chilled long before he got through counting out the s2.192 that a confiding patronage touched him for at single drawing.
 It seemed to be a sort of a dividend day for the regular investors and policy holders were paid off without prejudice according to the amount of stock they held in the concern. It is almost proverbial that the Chinese are the only people that get the big stakes at policy, but it is a prOverb that has been bored full of holes though they get more big winnings than anybody else for the reason that they go against the game stronger. As usual it was a Chinaman that got the cream at Thursdays drawing, but white men took the skinned milk which was still pretty Even tHS whey WAS IOuI ishing and most everybody got some of that. The player that didn't even get his money back on Thursday was surely a bad guesser.
 The Chinaman invested S1.50 and nailed an eight spot which he sold back back to the company for $1,200. An American put up p cents and marked off nine of the winning numbers in which he sold back his interest for S50O cash. Another American also put a quarter down, but he miscalculated a little in marking his ticket and only caught an eight spot. However, the S200 looked good to him. A Jap played four bits. but the best guess he could make Neas a seven spot and he only dragged down a measly little $50. Another American got just as much for ten cent investment, but he marked uJ eight of the winning numbers. Two other spectators got $16 each on ten cent antes by calling seven of the lucky numbers. This made a total of S2092. and another hundred dollars Wa. distributed among a score or more who exhibited good judgment in marking up tickets but who didn't invest enough to get in very deep in the dividends. It's still warm at the Palace, but the management is taking all possible pre- cautions to keep the temperature down.

THE BURNING OF A HOUSE
The Residence of Mrs. Josie Arthur
 Destroyed Lost Night.

The home of Mrs. Josie Arthur, at 43G North First avenue. was destroyed by fire early last night. There was mo- body in the house at the time and the fire was well under way when the alarm was sent in. The response of department was prompt but by the time it was on the ground there was nothing to hc done but to save the adjoining buildings. The house of Mrs. Arthur was a large ten-room frame structure. and the house nearest to it. orly fiften feet distance was also frame. occupied by q Mrs. Kellogg. This house was somewhat protected by q dense row of umbrella trees so that the work of the firemen was greatly aided. Only the side next to tha burn ing building was scorchad.
 The Arthur house and contents was a total loss. Mrs. Arthur kept q lodging and boarding house, but all is no theory regarding the origin of the fire.
 The loss is estimated at S7,OC0 $4.5G0 on the house and the balance on the contents. There was no insurance There was a policy for $2.O0O which had expired only few days ago and arrang gements were being made for it's renewal.
 A great many relics in the way oi coins which Claude Arthur had been collecting for years. and other keep saEes upon which no value could be placed were destroyed.
