JAPAN'S TRAITOR.

Among the many interesting and pie turesque stories that cluster around the Russo Japanese war is one that de- clares that Japan was obliged by an ac. of treason to abandon her long ard carefully considered plan of campaign and devise a new one to take it's place on the very eve of the outbreak of hos tilities.
 Lieutenant Colonel Hanzoku held an important position on the general staff of the Japanese army. He was grad uate of a German university, a first class tactician and an intrepid soldier. He had been decorated for distinguish ed gallantly in the China Japanese war But he was also a sport along Euro pean ljnes--a hard drinker and an in- veterate gambler. By consequence he was always in straits for money. He and the military attache of the Russian embassy were intimate friends. They had been students together in Germany Just before the withdrawal of the Rus

TEMPE
A CITIZENS MASS MEETING.
1t Has Decided to Hold enc at Curry
 Hall Tomorrow Night.

There was a large attendance at the Union Meeting of the different churches at the M. E. church south Sunday evening. Those present ex- pressed themselves as being strongly in favor of local option and a number of them expressed their views in short remarks.
 Rev. R. H. Fields, pastor of the church, presided as chairman. After music by the choir and the reading of scripture and prayer by Rev. J. c. Chap.n, the chairman, made a short address, stating the purpose of the meeting. He stated that petitions had been signed by many of the leading citizens of Tempe and vicinity re- questing the city council to prohibit gambling and enforce the law against prostitution within the limits of the city. The council had refused to grant that part of the petition relating to gambling Therefore, movement was contemplated to secure local op- tion in this justices precinct Short speeches discussing the situation were made by Rev. Daniel Kloss, Rev Win des, Colonel J. E. Price, Mrs. Wndes, Rev. F. L. Drew, pr. R. H. Fl. Blome. Rev. J. C. Chapin, Rev. Wilson and others. The speakers agreed that the saloon with its attendant evils of gambling and prostitution is a curse to our city and a disgrace to the town where the territorial Normal school is located. It was shown that local op-

sian ambassador from Japan, Hanzoku sold 10 his Russian friend Japan's en- tire war plans. His treachery was dis covered. After brief trial he was found guilty and shot. and the Japan ese general staff immediately formulaU- ed the new plan of campaign that is now being carried out.
 There is another version of the story which represents Lieutenant Colonel Hanzoku as the principal in a deop- laid scheme of the Japanese general staff to deceive the Russians by selling them false plans. Those who hold to this theory seem to be rather in doubt, though. whether Honzoku gave his life and his honor for his country by aI- lowing himself to be shot as a traitor to give added versimilitude after the deception had served its purpose and the Japanese campaign had been so far developed that concealment of it's plans and purpose was no longer possible.
 Neither version of the story, prob ably is quite correct. The self-sacri- ficing patriot theory is altogether too melodranatic for credence. On the other hand, great as Japan's talent for war undoubtedly is. nobody Is going to believe that the Japanese general stan is capable of formulating a complete and effective plan of campaign on a few hours notice. There seems to be no question that Lieutenant Colonel Honzoku sold JaIanese military secrets to Russia and was shot for his treason. But the indications are that the secrets were not of prime importance. No military observer watching the course of the war, is likely to believe that the Japanese army and navy have been act ing in pursuance to any hurriedly de- vised strategical plan.-Rochester De- mocrat and Chronicle.

PROGRESSING SLOWLY.

The drilling on the wells for the Tempe pumping company is still nov ing very slowly. As yet the first well has only reached a depth of thirty feet. The men are working in two shifts and the drill is kept in motion night and day. The reason that they have not made better time is on account of the large size of the cobble stones they are meeting with. It was thought that since the well was a little larger than the ordinary ones, the sand bucket would take up many of the stones and thus avoid the necessity of drilling and breaking them up. But many of the ones they are now coming in con- tact with are of an unusual size and the only way they can get through them is by the use of the drill which is very slow process.

 H. I. Diehl, miner, of 15S F. Alameda St, Tucson, AriZ., says: My expe- rience with Doan's Kidney Pills proved that they are everything claimed for them. Tn the month of February. 1902. first felt a slight pain across the small of my back, directly over the kid neys. probably caused by a cold set tied in these organs. It was not se- rious, yet it struck me if neglected it might lead to future trouble. and read ing one night in a Tucson paper about Doan's Kidney Pills. my daughter went to Martins drug store for a box. 1 took them as directed and when had completed the treatment the pain in my back disappeared. l was so sur prised at the prompt and efficient relief given by Doan's Kidney Pills that recommended them to a number of my acquaintances and even went so far as to mail a box to a friend of mine living in Orc Blanco, who had kidney trouble"
