law. the Department of the Interior has
withdrawn from entry large areas of land
in the several states and territories,
amounting to 100000 acres, of which
some $4,000 acres have been found to be
fnapplicable, and have been restored to the
public domain. The total amount of land
available for irrigation has been variously
estimated to be from fifty to sixty million
acres, which, when made productive, Will
sustain a population of from twenty to
twenty-five million people.

Tendency Of Foot Ball Teams.

ut seems evident to your committee that
the tendency with our foot ball teams is not
in the direction of such standards as the
board can approve, but the reverse. The
growing bitterness over the games, such as
has been developed in the case under con-
sideration. is sufficient evidence of this ten
dercy. That Struggling has come TO be CON
templated and provided for, Is shown by
the testimony of many boys called by the
principal of one of the schools to make
written reply TO the question as to how
carefully the professor of manly arts In
that school had guarded against smuggling.
The substance of their testimony seems to
be that they were earnestly besought to act
like lambs till they were hit, and like prize
fighters afterward
while your committee does not believe II
probable that the Scripture method OF
turning the other cheek can be successful
Nv introduced into foot ball circles as IL
Illustrated by the experience of Mr.. Hunt
ii is of the opinion that the game Is becom-
ing too strenuous when the trainer finds 1t
necessary to give full instructions as to the
proper way to meet smuggling, and that the
game needs civilizing.
1.-THE committee, therefore, recommends
that the superintendent cause it to be
known to the high schools that the board of
education regards foot ball now on trial
that the games must be fair and manly in
every respect; that Smuggling in every
form must cease. and that any disregard
of this warning will be followed by the ex-
pulson of the offending parties and the dis
ba ndment of the teams.

President Diaz's Letter.
MEXICO CITY, October 2,

MEXICO CITY, October 81 1904.
Hon. VIM. Andrew Clark, President
Twelfth National Irrigation Congress,
New York
Dear Sir: 1 have received the courteous
and esteemed invitation which you were
kind enough to extend to me for the inter-
esting meeting of the national irrigation
congress, which will be held from the 18th
to the 18th of November next In the pro-
gressive city of Ell Paso, Tex. AS much for
the importance of the transcendental mat
tiers which will there be treated of as to
reciprocate the kind consideration with
which you favor me. I would take sincere
pleasure in attending, if my official duties
would permit; but they are absolutely the
only ones which deprive me of that great
satisfaction, and I must content myself
with being with you, though absent from
your meeting. With sincere wishes that
the most complete success may crown the
intelligent and patriotic work Of the Illus
trious congress over which you preside (and
which will undoubtedly influence powerfully
the solution of the many problems relating
to irrigation and the forest industry, the
government thus understanding 1t, the de-
partment of fomento and some of the gov
ernments of the states of this republic will
be duly represented In that assembly by
their respective delegations.
Il am very truly yours,
rNy "

Suspension Recommended.

The report recommends that the suspen-
sion of Yoder and Cunningham be extended
to the end of the present month; that
Cunningham be excluded from playing foot
ball for the remainder of the school year,
and that Yoder be excluded from playing
for the remainder of his attendance at the
high schools of the District of Columbia.
The report then continues as follows:
I'VE have deemed 1t within the duties
assigned to us to inquire into the conditions
which at present attach to foot ball as 1t is
played between the school teams. We are
aware that the board a unit firmly be-
lieves in and desires to encourage whole
some athletics, but that it will insist upon
clean and manly play, and will tolerate
nothing less.
There has been much adverse criticism
of foot ball since the occurrence under In
yestigation and appeals have been made to
us by parents and others interested in
schools to recommend that the game be
forbidden for the future. We do not wish
to take such action at present. Your COM
,nittee believes that manly and clean ath-
Ietics do no harm, but rather beneht our
boys The game of foot ball is necessarily
a strenuous pastime, but when properly
pIayed. when the rules are observed, and
spirit of true craftsmanship animates the
players. the danger of injuries is reduced TO
a minimum.

Report Approved.

The board approved the report and took
faction to secure an enforcement of the
of the committee for the
.-better government of the foot ball contests
'between the high school teams. Matches
already made will not be interfered with
by the school authorities unless the con-
tests are attended by smuggling or rowdy-
ism 1t is announced as the decision of the
board that smuggling In every form must
cease and that any disregard of this warn
ing would be followed by the expulsion of
the offending parties and the DISARMAMENT
of the teams.

was the TOnto Basin project. The of- ficers of the geological survey were fearful that the proposed power plant Hould. interfere with the reclamation project. MT. Clarks surveys had shown that there could possibly be no such interference and he proved to the officers of the survey that the spill of the power plant will be 60 it. above the level of the Tonto reservoir when il is filled with water.
 Objection was therefore withdrawn and the department lately granted the right of way.
 President Kirkhoff, of the company. nnd who is also president of the South ern California bank, is now in Europe. On his return work will be commenced on the construction of the plant.

Play is the natural gymnasium of the child and his best.
 The bedtime frolic of the youngsters is natures preventive medicine against insomnia or fretful slumber. It is the most efficacious known.
 If mothers would insure for the tots and consequently for herself-a quiet night, she will not discourage the idea of pillow fight, a tug of war, or other sleepy time demonstration.
 If any child is subject to insomnia, nightmare, or restlessness, it would be a wise plan to arrange some lively gymnastics to promote the seasonabIe sleep. This is especially advisable if the evening has been spent in master ing tomoTrows lessons.

At the Mars shaft a 40-horse power engine will assist to drive the shaft to 600 feet depth A carload of Prescott pumps have likely reached the station by this time The water question is likely to prove troublesome The sta tion pump has a capacity of 1000 gal. Ions per minute, and the sinking pumps throw 300 gallons per minute.
 Superintendent Knowles calculates to turn the new machinery loose on the goth day of May.
 A new bunk house, 2Sx56 feet, is ID and filled by workmen. A dining room, 22x44 feet, is a good building. and well conducted restaurant is in operation. MT. Knowles has just completed a neat four-room cottage for himself The building for com. pany offices is new and creditable
 The water supply is from the can yon, one mile distant. and it is claim ed the supply will answer the demands of the company. Water is pumped to the houses. The extent of country controlled by this company is twenty five claims.
 The Duluth and Chiricahaua and the Lake Superior and Chiricauhua are two new companies that have con- menced operations in the same dis trict. The parties interested are the same who bought the Shattuck mines near Bisbee. Within a few miles of the mines there is a belt of timber that experts claim will furnish 50OO0,- 900 feet. The company has near the works 50,000 cords of wood and other supplies that indicates that the new works will push development.
 The little town of Paradise is locat- ed on Turkey creek, one and a half miles below the mines, in a beautiful wooded canyon, where all the trees of the mountains can be seen.
 The Chiricahua saw mills. some five miles distant, supply the lumber at $25 per thousand. Nearly all houses are built of the mills produc- tion. A modern plant for turning out dressed lumber will soon be put in.
 Paradise has forty school children. 400 people in the district, five saloons one store, one butcher shop, one bar Der shop, one hotel, one feed store and two restaurants. Harry Warburton and wife run the Hotel Warburton
 A daily stage line runs from Rodeo N. M. The fare is s2 each way. A telephone line is being constructed from Rodeo to Paradise.

Trains from every direction are car rying men to Paradise, the new mining town in the Chiricahuas, says the Bis bee Review. While there has been some prospecting and assessment work carried on in that section for twenty years the country never attracted very much attention until the Chiricahua Development company purchased a group of copper mines from Capt. Burns, few miles from Paradise, and began development work on an exten- siVe scale about six months ago. This company is now employing in the neighborhood of one hundred men and is installing a vast amount of up-to- date development machinery.
 Recently other mining properties have been secured by other companies, who have means for developing them.
 Two towns have sprung up. Para disc is the original town but at the mines of the Chiricahua Development company another town is well under way, the company having erected some substantial buildings.
 Superintendent James H. Knowles has started a Accompaniment shaft K J '' anu VIII SO uOWn OUU rect De1Ofe cross cutting.
 The foundation for the power plant to sink this shaft is nearly completed. Two 1O-horse power boilers are in place. Those boilers weight each 22,- 900 pounds, and were hauled to the mine by thirty-two horses.
 The first boiler required two and a half days from Rodeo to the mines The second boiler was laid down in less than two days. This statement is made to correct a report that was re- gently published saying that the com pany could not haul their machinery over the road.

enterprise for several years. Accord ing to the surveys he made it was es- timated that the plant would nave a capacity of 5000 horse power This rs- Innate has been found to be two con- servative and that the minimum ca pacity will be 5000 horsepo wer.
 An attractive feature of the project will be three reservoirs by which the regularity of the power may re. mdin- tained, and the company win not be Ut the mercy of low and high water stages. One of these reservoirs will be Dn Cherry creek near the mouth nn- other on Pinal creek and anc tber still further up. The summer storms may ne relied upon at all times 10 fill the reservoirs on these creeks that the minimum power may be always ob- tained.
 These reservoirs will also serve to conserve the waters which will late. Ind their way into the Salt and tnenc. into the Tonto dam and thence to the firms of the valley
 The company has already spent about $SO,OOO in preliminary work The entire cost of the plant will De S1 200 . eco. There will be one tunnel of 1O5t feet and about eight miles of smaller tunnels, ditcnes and fumes. The coun- try through which the water way is tc be constructed is one of the worst In tee territory. All the work must be done by pick and shovel or else by dynamite.
 The power will be used for supplying the town or Globe the Black Warrior end other mining districts adjacent to Globe and the Superior country Cn this side of the mountains. When the Ray country is opened up by the Phoenix < Eastern railroad the market of the power company will be widened The company could furnish power to this valley but this field is already prerty well filled. Additional power could be used here only for pumping and the Globe company would not furnish it at price that could be afforded for that purpose.
 The power will be a grear saving 10 rhc mines about Globe. They are now using the cheapest fuel Cbtainable, california oil. The cost of power is found to be S25S horsepower q year. The Globe Power company has entered into Il contract with the mines to furnish them power at s1O0 horsepower. This will be equal to a profit to the com panies of a quarter of a cent a pound iD the production of copper.

She entered into Q correspond ence with him through which he was finally induced to return and wipe out his sin as far as possible by a we'd ding After his return arrangements were made by the two families and a license was secured for the tying of the nuptial knot, the mother of the girl consenting to the proceeding. But in the meantime Flores, according to the officers, had been told by Pedro G. DelaI-ama and other friends, that he need not marry unless he wanted to as there was no law that could make him do so. The wedding was set for Sun day afternoon but when the time ar rived there was a shortage of bride grComs. The advice given to Flores. that he need not marry. was emi- nently sound, from a legal point of view, but 1t is likely the alternative will make him sorry he stood for his legal rights.
