from an acre to a hundred acres, the smaller ones being the most numerous. Most of these have an area large enough for a good home and park, each has a house on it, and some of the largest have two or three houses. These places are leased or owned al most entirely by wealthy people, who keep them for summer residences, leaving them in charge of care takers in the winter time. While the houses are not larger or nicer than can be found in any city, many of them are quite pretentious and all look cosy, comfortable and architecturally pleas inc. The islands are of rock fOrma- ton. capped by a thin soil just deep enough for the growing of turf, trees, and shrubbery. Every island has it's lawn and flower garden, it's little boat house and it's charming walks and lanes. The scene is constantly chang ing for the houses and grounds are all different owing to the shape, size and other peculiariues of the islands indi- vidualIy. The islands are devoted en- tirely to the purposes of pleasure re- sorts and even on the largest ones there is no attempt at crop raising.

POWDER BURNING DAY.


 cial celebration of the glorious Fourth has been arranged for in Phoenix to- day, and the festivities will be very largely confined to the private and inn polite burning of powder under other peoples feet, as they chance to pass along the sidewalks, and the maiming or killing of such patriots as chance to be out in the midst of the hilarity. There will, of course, be a few run aways, caused by horses taking fright at bursting bombs but wise drivers will keep their vehicles off the streets as much as possible today. The custom of doing dangerous things on the Fourth is too firmly established to be broken up. and the general public should pre- pare to take care of itself. It was grossly wrong to scare horses with fireworks during the past few days, when drivers were not expecting it,

 QUICK WORK-About 1O:3O last night man named R. J. Doyle, who had been drinking a little, fell asleep while sitting in chair at the Cottage saloon on South Seventh street. A woman who inhabits that quarter saw a Mexican approach Doyle and loiter around him until he assured himself that Doyle was sleeping. Then he spread the links of Doyle's watch chain, cutting 1t in two and taking the part that had a fifty dollar watch hanging to it, hastily sought safety in flight. The woman at once telephoned the police and gave them a description of the Mexican. They located him up town and arrested him shortly after midnight in the alley in the rear of the Anheuser saloon. He denied any know ledge of the crime but he happened to have Doyle's watch in his pocket. an incident that is believed by the police to be pretty good circumstantial evil dence. The Mexican was jailed but would not give his name.

deavoring to obtain from the pope the &C.

Countess Montlgnoso in order to be able
to marry again. This will be possible II
the countess is willing to declare under
oath that her parents forced her to marry
him while ne was in somnolent condition.
which she affirmed when she made her
flight from the Saxony capital Lately how
ever, the countess refused to swear to the
statement so as to prevent the king from
remarrying.
1t is understood that recently the pope
has been strongly opposed to the wishes of
the Saxon king and has been comparing
his case with the precedents In which mar
Tiages were dissolved by the church.
The Countess Montignoso was formerly
the Crown Princess Louise. wife of Crown
Prince Frederick. now king Of Saxony. In
1902 she eloped with Prof. Giron and has
since been living in Italy.

WESTERN CANADA WHEAT LANDS
ADVANCE.
Unprecedented Demand for Lands in
the Western Canadian wheat belt
Leads 10 "a sharp Rise In Prices

LtdibH 10 - MISE IN EElctAs
WINNIPEG, Manitoba, April THE
people of western Canada arc Just begin
ming to wake up to the fact that the first
general occupation Of what has been called
the Last West" Is almost accomplished.
II is almost impossible any longer to Sc
cure large tracts OF land. The Canadian
Northwest land department is reported TO
have practically disposed Of all it's lands
that were offered in large blocks. The
Canadian Pacific railway still owns a vast
acreage, but Is reported to be discburaging
wholesale purchases Both companies have
advanced prices a dollar or two an acre
and in some districts the Canadian Pa
cific has withdrawn lands from the market
pending readjustment Of prices The
prediction Is freely made that frst-class
unimproved wheat lands in wetsern Can
ada, which may today be bought for from
3 to SIS an acre, will within a year or
TWO be bringing SIS to s25. The Winnipeg
hotels are crowded with American land
buyers investors and farmers. Last week
29l carloads of settlers effects from the
states arrived at boundary points, accord
ing TO J. Obed Smith Dominion immigTa-
ton commissioner al Winnipeg. Mr.
Smiths figures show that by the end OF
March 1900 immigrants arrived in western
Canada this season. The percentage OF
Americans is much larger than ever baAACe.
