son to be proud of their library and great credit is due to the ladies in charge who have labored in it's behalf for the last few years and who are re- sponsible for it's growth and present excellent condition. The library at present numbers 1,075 books and a hundred has been added in the last few days. These books represent the works of the best known authors and are standard works of fiction. The books have been selected with great care and all of them are the best and most popular. While the library is fairly well patroniZed it seems that there are a good many people here who underestimate the value and who do not take advantages of the opportuni- ties offered by such a library.
 It is safe to say that few towns the size of Tempe offer to it's residents such a choice of reading matter. The expense is very small in proportion of the benefits derived. The cost of a years privilege is but three dollars or two dollars for six months; one month thirty-five cents. Books may be pro- cured Saturday afternoon at which time one. of the ladies is always at the library.

love for President flakes and family. All of the speakers referred to the faithfulness of the man, and the great love and interest he had manifested in the people of the stake. And he was assured that he carried away with him the love and confidence of the entire people. At the conclusion of the program which lasted from s o'clock to Il o'clock, MT. l.. V. Guthrie passed around a box of nice rosy apples.
 At the close President flakes and family ranged themselves in a part of the rooms and those present had the pleasure of shaking them by the hand and bidding them goodbye. In many cases tears were shed, caused by the deep feeling of love between the par ties. President flakes promised to re- turn for the conference the 18th and 26th of this month.

places and filled in others. In the be- ginning there was turned over to the receiver $399.1 15 and he subsequently received $400 There was $7,000 from rentals but very little of that could be collected. This was not very prom ising showing and to make matters worse, on account of the demand for labor on the railroad and other canals which had been damaged by flood, the price of labor had advanced twenty five per cent.
 The receiver was authorized to issue notes to the amount of $8,00O, bearing interest at ten per cent. This was done and the work of repair proceeded. On June IA of that year water was turned in but by this time the money was all gone, the receiver was in debt and there remained much more to be done. The headgate had not been fin- ished and many other repairs were necessary.
 The receiver was authorized to issue notes to the amount of $16.000, a part of the proceeds to be applied to the taking up of the notes of the first issue and the work of improvement went on until it was finished and now the canal has a capacity of 6,000 min CTS inches, the Hume across the Has sayampa has been restored and the south extension of the canal has been put into proper condition. The report includes a report by County Surveyor Streitz to the receiver, MT. Streits having been employed OF the work.
 In the opinion of the receiver no dam can be built at that point which will withstand the high floods of the Gila, which pours its waters down at times in irresistible volume. But the dam as now constructed will stand against ordinary rises.
 The receiver states that he surveyed that canal eighteen years ago and at that time ro commended the placing of waste gates along its course be- tween the head gate and the Hassay- ampa, as a precaution against the floods from the White Tanks country. That was not yet done. There is the same necessity for the waste gates now but now that the receiver is in control there is no money left for that im- provement.
 The general financial statement of the receiver shows that during his receivership he has had from various sources. $32,67s.s0 and has expended $S1,952.44, leaving on hand s72636. In connection with the affairs of the company a motion was filed in district court yesterday in the case of James H. Pershing against the Buckeye Land and Canal company, for the employ ment of additional counsel to defend the damage suits which have been brought against the company. The motion was granted though the court said that the arrangement for the fee of the special counsel would have to be paid out of the fee of the counsel for the company.

 The people of the Maricopa stake, under the management of President w.. J. LeBaron and Isaac Dana, gave President c. R. flakes a surprise party Thursday night in the Relief hall. The many friends had assembled at the building when by careful maneuvering they landed him there when all was ready and he was received with well come that made his heart glad. Mrs. flakes and the other members of his family and his son-in-law, L. E. Lamb and family, who are going away with President flakes, were also present and participated in the good feeling that was manifest.
 President Isaac Dana presided at the gathering and surprised all in the building by calling them to their feet in the course of the evening, either for songs, recitations, speeches or any thing that they could do. All of the program was in a spirit of respect and

TUCKED BLOUSE WITH YOKE 51o2

The blouse that is full below some prettily shaped yoke is a pronounced favorite of the season and has the merit of suiting almost all women ad- mirably well. This one is in lingerie style, made of sheer batiste, with trim ming of lace insertion and is in reality exceedingly simple although it is so de- signed that it gives a notably dressy effect. The batiste is always pretty and launders satisfactorily and there are many other materials which might be suggested for the white waist, but the design also suits the wash silks of the season and figured and lowered ma terials as well as white.
 The waist consists of the yoke and the blouse portions, the latter being

ORIGIN or Pixies PEAK.
Indian Legend OF the Formation Of
This Eam0us Mountain.

Ah0Aan Legend OF the Formation Of
This Famous Mountain.
The quaint Indian legend of the for
nation Of Pixies peak is as follows:
AT the beginning Of all things the
lesser spirits possessed the earth and
dwelt near the banks of the great
river. They had created race of men
to be their servants, but these men
were far superior to the present in
habitants of the earth and made end.
less trouble for their creators. There.
fore the lesser spirits resolved to de.
stroy mankind and the earth itself. Sc
they caused the great river to rise un.
til it burst its banks and overwhelmed
everything. They themselves took each
a large portion of the best of the earth
that they might create a new world
and a quantity of maize, which had
been their particular food, and return
ed to heaven. Arriving at the gate OF
heaven, which is at the end af the
plains, where the sky and mountains
meet, they were told that they could
not bring such burdens of earth into
heaven. Accordingly they dropped
them all then and there These falling
masses made a great heap on the top
of the world which Extended far
above the waters, and this is the origin
of Pixies peak, which is thus shown to
be directly under the gate of heaven
ct was formerly twice as high as now,
but lost it's summit, as is told in an
other legend)
''The rock masses upon it and all
about show that they have been
dropped from the sky The variety
and extent of the mineral wealth in
the region prove that the earth's choic-
est materials are deposited there. And
still as the consultations move across
the heavens and vanish above the
mountain SUBMITS we may see the
spirits rise from the great river and
pass to the gate of heaven. The fall
ing stars are their falling burdens or
the dropping grains of maize"
