TO DICTATE LETTERS BY TELEPHONE.

Plans now under way will make it unneces-
sary for business men to depend upon private
stenographers or typewriters Central typewr1t-
ing exchanges, to which letters can be dictated
over the telephone circuit and returned for sigma
ture in a few minutes are to be established IN
large office buildings and hotels.
Such scheme has been made practical by
means of the telegraphone, which not only makes
a perfect reproduction of the human voice, pu'
also records everything that passes the ord
nary telephone. These records are stored upon
a thin steel wire disc and can be reproduced
an indefinite number of times or removed when
there is no further use for them
Each of the central exchanges will have

GOTHAM COURTS WOULD NOT AVAIL DUCHESS.

New York lawyers not inclined to credit
the cabled report that the duchess of Mari
borough may come to this state for the purpose
of bringing her suit for divorce against the duke
of Marlborough. AS the case now stands, the
New York courts have no jurisdiction, and the
mere fact that the duchess would prefer to sue
here would have no weight.
Under the provisions of the code of civil pro-
cedure, divorce may be granted here when both
parties to the action are residents of the state;
when they were married here or if the offense
alleged was committed here and the plaintiff is
actually resident at the time the suit is brought
There is not one element that would bring the
Marlborough case within the provisions of the
code, and the New York courts would have to
dismiss any action that might be instituted.
Even if the duchess claimed residence here.

KNITTED Coffee Knifed an Old Soldier.

An old soldier, released from coffee at 72. recovered his health and tells about # as follows:
 ''I stuck to coffee for years although it knifed me again and again.
 About eight years ago, tas result of coffe drinking which coHgested my liver) I was taken with a very severe attack of malarial fever.
 "I would apparently recover and start about my usual work only to suffer a relapse. After this had been repeated several times during the year was again taken violently i'll.
 "The doctor said he had carefully studied my case. and it was either quit coffee or die advising me to take Postum in it's place. l had always thought coffee one of my dearest friends and especially when sick, and l was very much taken back by the Doctors decision for l hadn't suspect ed the coffee I drank could possibly cause my troubles.
 q thought it over for a few minutes and finally told the Doctor 1 would make the change Postum was pro- cured for me the same day and made according to directions; we'll l liked ii and stuck to it and since then l have been a new man. The change in health began in a few days and sur prised me, and now, although I am seventy years of age. l do lots Oi hard work and for the past month have been teaming. driving siXteer miles a day besides loading and un- loading the wagon. That's what Post um in the place of coffee has done foI me. I now like the Postun as well as did coffee
 'I have known people who did not care for Postum at first but after having learned to make it properly ac- cording to directions they have come to like it as well as coffee. I never miss a chance to praise it." Nam, given by Postum Co, Battle Creek Mich

VERY APT LEARNERS
 DOCTRINE OF UNREST
Col. H'ClintocK's Understanding of the Cause Ofthe Cananea Outbreak.

Col. J. H. McClintock returned yes terday morning from Naco, where he had gone to take the nearest view of the Cananea war that he could well command under the circumstances. He says that as near as he could learn there yet remained in jail in Cananea but two Americans arrested since the trouble broke out in the camp. One is a man named Clinton, who shot a Mexican policeman, and the other a man held on a misdemeanor charge. The colonel said that as near as he could learn the trouble was caused by two opposing factions each against the government as it were, and the strike was encouraged by both in the hope that all might get something out of resulting conditions.
 One of these factions he was told was composed of a few American SO cialists who had been preaching the doctrine of unrest and certain of the Mexicans did not receive it with the usual equanimity of Americans, but wanted to proceed at once to overturn things. The other faction was not socialistic but anti-Diaz- The strike was started and augmented by both factions and between the two We're the so-called common people" who thought it was a mere matter of a la bor strike.
 The refugees had already begun re- turning to Cananea when he left. said Col McCHntock, and the smelters wera starting up.
 One interesting thing that has not been mentioned elsewhere is that the trouble has been confined entirely to Cananea. There has been no disturb ance in any other camp. Nacozari is | tranquil and the works are running steadily. Superintendent James Doug ] las of Nacozari. however, is in Ca nanea, looking after the Phelps-Dodg' | properties in that camp, for the mer employed by that company in Cananes

 HYDROPHOBIA SKUNKS-This Is the time of year when people begin their annual camping trips in the mountains the time when many find their way into the hills who are unac- quainted with possible dangers that may turk in their path. It is proper, therefore. to call attention to the ur- gency of being careful when they make camp, to so place their beds that they will not be molested by hydroprobia skunks. which seem to have a mania for prowling around camps. The fact is emphasized by two items in the last issue of the Williams News relating to the story of the biting of three people by skunks. as follows: F.. J. Fuller. a resident of Pine. Gila county, while on his way to Flagstan for a load Of freight, camped on the outskirts of the town one night last week and was bit ten Dy Shunk or tne nydfOpnODla Va riety. He had his hands clasped un- der the back of his head. when the animal took hold of the right hand al the thunmb and held on Fuller grabbed him with the left hand and raised him over his head. Holding or to him. he walked to the fire, where his son took an axe and chopped the skunk's head off. Mir Fuller left or Monday for Chicago. where he will en- ter the Pasteur institute. While asleep in their camp at Marshall lake on Wednesday MT. and Mrs T. C FrieT were bitten by hydrophobis skunks. MT. Frier was bitten on tn, right cheek. while Mrs. Frier was at tackled on the hand. They left fol Chicago Thursday night, where they will be treated at the Pasteur institute

WILLIAMS SLAYER
 HELD FOR MURDER
E. E. Weller Brought to Jail Tester
 day Uader $3,5O0 Bond.

F.. F. Weller, the slayer of C. E. Wn- Hams. was given preliminary exami- nation yesterday before Justice Stan dage of Lehi. He was held to the grand jury on a charge of murder and his bond was fixed at $3,5OO. He was brought to the county jail yesterday by Constable Burton. No arrangement with reference to the bond has so far been made
 The testimony at the examination was practically the same as that brought out at the inquest. While it left no doubt that Williams was the aggressor and that Weller would have been glad to go his way peaceably the theory of self-defense was marred by the fact that Williams had been shot twice in the back, the first shot in the back part of the hip.
 Wellers own statement of the affair did not contribute to the theory that he was acting in self defense when he fired the first shot and certainly not when he fired the second.
 When Williams approached him he threw a cartridge into his gun and at the same instant presented it. Will Hams must have turned to flee before the trigger was pulled, He fell for ward, stumbling immediately after re- ceiving the shot, and then the second shot struck him full in the hack.
 In explanation of the firing of the first shot Weller said that it seemed to him that Williams was reaching foI gun and even when he stumbled he seemed to be still trying to draw it It turned out though that he had nc gun.

 on Defendants Answer.

The case of the Huntsman- Sheldon Auto company against F.. s. Wakeliu, to enforce a contract for the sale of an auto truck for the use of the Wake lin Grocer company, was decided by Judge Kent yesterday in. favor of the defendant
 In the case of O. D. Merrill against E. w. Wilbur. a demurrer to the com plaint was denied. This is a suit to quiet title to the Oversight mining lode, which is situated in Pinal county, not far from the line of this county but by the consent of both parties it was brought here for trial.
 In the afternoon a demurrer in the case of Henry Naeher Of Germany, against Frank c. Smith and others, was argued and taken under advise ment Naeher, who is q native of Germany. and one of the stockholders of the Highland Water company, brought suit against the principal de- fendant, the corporation. and the sec retaries of it to enjoin the reissue to MT. Smith of certain shares Of stock. which had been sold at a sneriffs sale under a judgment in favor of MT. Smith. against Elijah Coffin of Phjla- delphia. It is alleged in the comp aint

 Tn further support of his rights in the company, represented by those shares of stock. the plaintiff alleges that since he purchased them he has ! expended $15.0OO on the property. It is denied in the demurrer that the i plaintiff is in possession of tEose shares or that he ever bought them of Coi- fin.

CORSET COVER 5s85.

Dainty lingerie is always in demand. No woman ever yet possessed too large a supply and none ever yet failed to be fascinated by some new ana pretty model. The corset cover illus trated is essentially dainty and shapely, just full enough to allow of wearing under the blouse waist with success while the separate portion over the hips does away with bulk at that point. In the illustration 1t is made of fine nainsook with trimming of German Valenciennes lace and embroidery worked onto the material. The design for this last is a simple one, and the time and labor involved are by nc means excessive while the result is far more satisfactory than can be obtained in any other way. There are. however medalliOns and applications which can be substituted if better liked Batiste both linen and cotton lawn and all the materials used for garments of the sort are appropriate.

nounced characteristic work OF all the
family.
Mr.. Bonaparte's signature. while
plainly written, is not especially char
acteristic of anything. 1t is the youth
full hand. and evidently has never
changed from the time when he first
settled into that style of signature as
boy at school.
Mr.. CorteIyou's is the most undefin-
able Of all the signatures. He is a
hasty writer, style cultivated by him,
no doubt, in his stenography, which
has been to him of such great service.
None of the signatures shows any
evidence OF age or infirmity of any
kind. but exhibit steadiness OF nerve,
strength of physique and control or
hand, which should dispel any idea OF
a wavering in determination.
Thus we find in this coterie OF the
most distinguished men in the country
today a marked variety of handwrit-
ing, which indicates nothing more than
the fact that each of these gentlemen.
when the hand was being formed. was
different systems were taught or in
which there were no systems at all. SO

upon the signature OF Mr.. Taft and de-
fine his makeup as man? Could he
see in 1t a genial nature. a winning
personal magnetism, rotund form
bubbIing over with happiness? Could
he hear the infectious laugh that sets
