DEPARTURE OF W. K. RYAN
He Expresses Himself on Points of
 Vital Interest to the Valley.

Mr. w. K. Ryan of the Morton Trust company of New York, who has just concluded his second seasons residence in Phoenix, leaves tonight for Mexico and the East in his private car Gee anic, accompanied by Mrs. Ryan and General Agent Landis Of the Santa Fe. The party goes direct to Chihuahua, Mexico, where MT. Ryan has extensive railroad and mining interests, and may continue on to the City of Mexico for a few days visit. MT. and Mrs. Ryan are enroute to Oak Ridge, Va. where they have an extensive country home, and ranch, and which place will be their residence for the spring months at least MT. Landis will pro- ceed on to his home at Philadelphia, and after a few days visit there and in New York, will return to PhosniX.
 MT. Ryan upon being questioned as to his plans for future winter seasons, ing to Phoenix, responded most en- phatically in the affirmative, continu ing that his general interest in this section of Arizona and its future were never so keen as at this moment. Said MT. Ryan, You are sounding the vital key note and solving the issue of prime importance, when you shall, have consunmated the Tonto ressrvc,r project, which your citizens, guided by such able and indefatigable leaders as Engineer Davis of the U. s. geologi- cal survey and the Hon. B. A. Fowler, have so ably championed. I mention these gentlemen more particularly, as have had the pleasure of personally coming in contact with them, and have been more than favorably impressed by their personality and wonderful grasp of the science of irrigation. and also on account of being acquainted somewhat of the light in which they are rated among the powers that he at Washington. Any cause which these gentlemen ouId deign to champion could terminate but in one degree that of success"
 Mir. Ryan remarked incidentally that he appreciated fully the significance of more water for the Salt River Valley Also, that he deeply regretted not being able to dc himself the honor of being here on election day, to cast a ballot for the Tonto road measure, and thereby assist in furthering one of the broadest measures at the pres -ent time facing the three leading cities of Maricopa county.
 "Of course,' continued Mir. Ryan, you can lead the horse to water, but then it's up to him. In this Tonto road measure our friend, MT. Fowler has led the horse, and is certainly de- serving of every support and ccnsid- eration at the hands of your citizens &s a fitting recognition or the eXsmp- lary and skillful manner in which he launched and nursed this TOnto enabl ing act through both houses of con- gress, in cre third Of the time gener- ally Consummed in such tasks.
 My views and ideals of the several voters interested in this Tonto road proposition will certainly be obliged to decline several points, if-thsy al- low themselves for a moment to stand in their own light, through motives

selfish, or otherwise,~and not in the affirmative, and for the road.
 MT. Ryan, when interrogated as to his interests here, smilingly replied that thus far they would inventory but little beyond his good will, and a fav- orable impression, intima ting, however, that sooner or later. he hoped to have @ permanent winter residence here, and also possibly take advantage of some other alluring Investments that were offering. For the present, how ever. other interests were demanding his leisure time.
 Mir. Ryan, being known to have eX- tensive railroad interests and a gen. eral knowledge of affairs within the circle, when asked whether in his opinion the valley would ever enjoy the benefit of a thorough transconti mental railroad, replied most emphatic ally that it would, and that he is in a position to state so, by reason of data and information he receives from fi- nancial powers in the east.
 Continuing, he laid stress on the cer- tainty of the valley having as early as was expedient, a trans-continental railway, the Tonto basin reservoir and double the present population.
 These factors" said he, will in crease your acreage, your crops, your markets, your transient travel and generally create your commercial destiny"
 MT. Ryan said also that he had been a careful and interested student of conditions throughout the valley ever since his advent here, and that he can but say with Senator Depew. "It all comes to him who rustles while he waits" You are assured of the dam." said he, now build the road, and you will many times and ever, have cause for self reorganization.

Pershiug and Lieutenant Hamilton Bowies of his staff They have visited the post in the southern part of the territory and are now on their way to Fort WhippIe General Sumner and the gentlemen of his staff called on Governor Brcdie yesterday afternoon.
 General Sumner is rot a stranger in Arizona. As late as 1896, when he was Col. Sumner he was in command of Camp Grant at time when Adjutant General LeaveIl, then Captain LeaveI, was stationed there.
 Having graduated from West Point General Sumner. son of General Edwin V. Sumner, became a second lieutenant in 1861. He served with gallantry the war and after that in In dian campaigns.

LOSS OF AN EDUCATOR
Prof. Cole Will Quit the Schools at the
 End of the Year.

It was announced yesterday that Professor J. C. Cole, the principal of the Central school. would sever his connection with the schools of Phoe- nix at the end of this year. When Professor Cole was seen later he said that the report was true, Regarding his plans he h;rd nothing to say He has extensive property interests in the city and the valley, which require his attention, so that it is probable that he will not leave this vicinity.
 The news of the severance of his re- latiOns with the schools, with which he has been connected so long and to whose upbuilding he has contributed so much, will be heard with general regret
 He engaged in teaching in this coun- ty sixteen years ago, and for ten years he has been connected with the city schools. He is, therefore, in point of service, the oldest teacher in the county. He is regarded as one of the foremost educators of not only this county but of the territory He has been intensely in earnest in school work. He has hot followed it as a mere means of livelihood. but because he loved it. His fine business uualtfi- tions would have netted him greater financial results if he had chosen some other employment.
 change occurred yesterday in the Central street school in the election cr Miss Florence Ford to the sixth grade. Miss Ford is one of the younger teach CTS but she has already been very successful. She was graduated from the Tempe Normal school two years ago and until recently has been teach ing in Prescott.

tine With Success.
A remarkable discovery has appar-
emily been made by Dublin vcteri.
nary surgeon named Allen respecting
an antidotc for carbolic acid poisoning.
says the London News.
Some time ago his attention was
drawn TO two horses which were evil
IDENTIFY suffering from poisoning. On
examining one he noticed that the mu.
cous surface of the mouth WAS banch-
ed and that the animal was stagger-
Ing. There was general twitching of
the muscles the eyes were staring,
and the animal was rapidly assuming
comatose condition. Mr.. Allen asked
for some oil, linseed for preference: il
not. any kind Of oil that was handy.
Some was brought and about two
wincglassfus administered to one of
the animals. the effect being, to quote
the words of Mr.. Allen, miraculous.
For the first time he then noticed that
the oil which had been given to the
horse was the ordinary turpentine OF
the result that he gave the second
horse dose. although at that time the
animal was unconscious. In about ten
minutes it recovered and both horses
were at work the next day as II moth
ing Ind happened
Not long after this. by a peculiar co.
incidence. Mr., Alien was asked to look
a "a Ii bn At.
glass Of stout had become very H. In
the forge the veterinary found the
smith in a condition Of coma, n strong
smell of carbolic ncid pervading the
premises. Ultimately he discovered
that the man had drunk out Of the
wrong vessel and imbibed solution
of the acid instead of the stout. A doc
tor was mt once sent for. but in the
meantime Mr.. Allen administered Il
dose Of turpentinc that happened to be
on the premises. and the man not only
quickly recovered. but resumed his
work within an hour.
Turpentine as an antiCl0te in similar
cases had been previously unknown,
and representative Of the Daily News
recently sought out an expert with a
view OF getting medical opinion upon
matter of so much Importance. "rhe
symptoms in the case you mcution," he
said, ARE distinctly those of carbolic
acid poisoning, aud so successful does
the treatment appear to have been that
further experiments in the same direc-
ton are well worth trying. II subse-

Arranged hY n MiEhan

Hanging in the hail OF the home OF
Attorney General Hampton T.. Carson
on Spruce street, is a grouped seriea
Of rare and valuable engravings Dor
traying Napoleon Bonaparte in the
many phases of his career. The collec.
ton. which comprises nearly twoscore
OF portraits picked up in various parts
OF the world by Mr.. Carson. is inrlosed
in single large frame. The grouping
of this big collection. including, as il
does. engravings of Bonaparte small,
large and varied in pose. was task
that proved puzzling when undertaken.
One day, after spending a long time
vainly arranging and rearranging the
portraits with an eye to securing the
best effect. Mr. Carson packed up the
collection in 4 portfolio TO complete
the job at another time. Going down
stairs he stumbled. dropping the port
folio. and Uttered the floor with the en-
cravings. Pausing to survey the
wreck. he was struck by the grouping
OF the portraits. which, by accident,
had assumed n far more symmetrical
and satisfactory arrangement than the
attorney general had been able to pro-
duce.
A few changes We're all that was
necessary 10 fix the collection 10 Mr.
Carson's liking. and TO a picture Trainer
was given the order 10 frame il as 1t
lay. The result Is one Of the most
striking effects in General Carson's
