Mothers and Daughters.

Someone encloses newspaper clipping
about mothers and daughters to the
writer asking that it be used as text for
talk ON this page. The drift of the en-
closed paragraphs is that too many moth
crs are tyrannical and want To manage
their girls to such an extent that they
have no independence and are tied to
their apron strings forever. Unfortunate
ly the following is sometimes true:
There is type of mother
who seems to think that a daughter is
always 4 child and never reaches an age
OF responsibility. Poor crushed creatures.
these young women are. Many of them
hardly dare call their souls their own.
They are not allowed to choose their
friends-thc mothers see to that-and the
consequence is the girls are probably
made TO consOrt with companions who
have no tastes in common with them, and
the unhappy girls are deprived Of one Of
glrlhood'S greatest charms-congcnal
company"
The article goes on to say that these
hard-hcarted mothers do not approve of
masculine company and often their
daughters become old maids in conse-
queuce.
Now this all sounds very alarming. hut
Il IS the belief of the writer that cases
OF the prosecuted daughters are very rare.
We have all seen and known instances of
SeltSh mothers Who want all the atten-
non and keep their daughters IN the back
ground. but these are ont drop in the
bucket compared 10 the selfish daughters
and unselhsh mothers. Ii is not pleasant
to say this, but while on this subject it *
well to tell the truth In the rare in
stances Of selfish mothers. their daugh-
ters have a hard time indeed: they are
crushed and given TO understand that
tney do not amount to anything. These
Urls suffer many Disadvantages and have
their souls tried in various ways. but IL Is
more often the other thing that we see
about us
Who does not know the many little.

 A ROBRER IN JAIL-Sheriff Cook came back from Florence yesterday morning with w. H. McMahon, who has been charged with the robbery of a boy by the name of Claude Jaqua, otherwise the Fl Paso Kid. The boy was sleeping one night in the court house plaza along with McMahon and some companions who had picked the kid up in the southern part of the ter ritory and brought him to Phoenix. When the kid woke his watch was gone and it was found later in a pawn shop. The pawn ticket was found in posses sion of McMahon.( McMahon and two companions went to Maricopa where they were arrested for stealing. There was proof only against McMahon, but the other two were brought back here in connection with the robbery of the boy and they are now in jail awaiting the grand jury. McMahon was sent to the county jail at Florence for his theft at Maricopa and his term has just expired. AfcMahOn was arraigned before Justice Robertson yesterday and his trial was set for tomorrow.

THE COUNTY SCHOOLS
Interesting Figures From the Super
 intendent's Report.

Many persons of this county who were discouraged by the drouth were inclined to believe that the valley was going back, that it was losing wealth and population. The report of County
 School Superintendent Fulton to the
 territorial superintendent shows q contrary state of things; that there are not only more pupils in the count:'
 than there were a year ago but thas there is more school property and that the schools are better attended. The school census for 1903 showed that there were 1882 pupils of school age. The census for this year shows 5,O22. The enrolment for 1903 was 4,214 and for 1904, 4,39S. The average daily attendance for the year closing | year ago was 2,776 while that attend ancc for the year just closed was D. | 965. The per cent of attendance last | year was 91 while the per cent for ths | closing year was 95. It will be ob . | served that the enrolment for the | year just closed increased in greater ration than the census and that the average daily attendance increased Tn
 greater ratio than the enrolment. l The gain in attendance is attribute ! | in part to the fact that last winter | there was no bad weather to prevent
 the smaller pupils from going to l school. There were in the year juss closed SPA pupils in the first four | grades and 1.274 in the grammar grade. The expenditures for the year just | closed amounted to s7O,64O.35; for the | yoGr before, $63,74O94. In most of
 the districts there are small balances aggregating S6,166.52.
 l Superintendent Fulton has complet-
 ed his estimate for next year. The
 amount of it is S73,2OO. The estimate
 is based upon the enrolment.
 | The value of school properties, that
 is lots, school houses and furniture IS shown to be $247,475; of school libra ies. $2,99O, and of apparatus. $4.S1O.
 The number of volumes in the school l libraries is 5,745 of which 4,2OO are m
 Phoenix schools.
 All the foregoing figures relate to the | grade schools.
 The estimate for the Phoenix high
 school prepared by the board of super
 Visors according to custom and turned
 over to the superintendent is $20, ,3O1 or this sum 5000 will be necessary to
 take care of the deficit The estimate | for salaries is $S,OOO. There is an
 other interesting item in the estimate
 and that is the sum of $1, 200, necessary Tor converting the gymnasium into two l class rooms. It is popularly suppos-
 ed that that gymnasium is responsible
 Tor the present embarrassment of the
 school The ambition to make it big ger induced the purchase of ground of which the school board finds itself un- able to make any use.
 The country patrons of the high
 school upon whom so much depends about the time of school elections have
 never looked with a loving eye upon that gymnasium feature of the general scheme of education.

DesMoines, Ia. Sept 13.-Five ban
dts successfully held up a passenger
train on the Rock Island near Let's
shortly after midnight. The state
ments of the express officials are
that they secured no money though
the safe was blown open and the con-
tents taken. Mounted men with blood
hounds are now securing the country
for miles in every direction. The rob
berry occurred at 12:06 at a place
known as Whiskey Hollow six miles
out of Muscatine. The train known
as No. II was the through Chicago
and Kansas City train. The robbery
was at the end OF a sharp curve ex-
actly where a holdup was engineered
two years ago by the Chicago car
barn bandits.
The engineer as the train rounded
the curve saw a red lantern on the
track and Immediately stopped the
train. At once the engine, express
and baggage cars were boarded by
robbers. A fusillade. of shots were fir
ed to intimidate the passengers. The
messenger of the express car was
compelled to open the door. The safe
gwas dynamited and the contents ia
ken after which the engine crew was
compelled to leave the engine which
was cut off and the robbers mounting
it ran west to within two miles of
Columbus Junction where the engine
was left standing on the track. The
manner in which the robbers hand
led the engine convinces the officers
that some of them were experienced
railroad men.
Muscatine, Ia, Sept. 13.-It is re-
ported here that the robbers on the
Rock Island secured from $4,000 to
$4,000.

lieve Japan from guarding her lines

the regular Chinese troops will be-
come auxiliaries of the Japanese. Chi
