YUMA COUNTY
 BROUGHT TOGETHER
The North Has Been Made Accessible
 to the South.

Capt. Ingalls,, surveyor general of the territory, yesterday entertained as guests Joe Redondo and H. C Haupt, two prominent citizens of Yuma, who were passing through the lity en route to their nome after d visit to the Wendendale country. where they have mining interests. Both of the visitors were enthusiastic over the bright prospect for a mining future for northern Yuma county and say that with each months develop ment, the country is going ahead mar velously. The visit to that section was possibly more interesting to MT. Redondo than to MT. Haupt. especial ly so when considered in the manner in which they now travel to it.
 In the good old days of ten and twenty years ago Joe Redondo used to campaign in Yuma county, for he has always been more or less interest ed in politics. In the early days the trip to Harrisburg and the mining camps north of that point was looked forward to with despair by the candi- dates on the various tickets. for it re- quired ten days hard riding and great expense. So hard, in fact, was the trip, that in some years, especially
 
 victory, it was cut out altogether
 But since the Arizona and California road has been built. all this is chang ed. The trip is now made by way of Phoenix and it is possible to leave Yuma and make the trip to the most northern part of Yuma county by way of the Southern Pacific to Phoenix anl then the Santa Fe north inside of three days. The travel is much more com fOrtable and the expense much less than half. So pleasant was his recent trip that in talking with Capt Ingalls, yesterday, he said that he was anxious for another county election to come on, that the campaigning trip into the northern part of his county might be made. If he was not a candidate he would go anyway, just to get even for the hard trips he had to make in past years.
 The city of Yuma, according to MT. Redondo, is fast coming to the front. and each year sees new improvements of modern character that give the old town the appearance of an up-to- date city, and the prosperous year now on there commercially makes it true to it's looks. Much of course, in the way of growth of that section. depends upon the completion of the great dam project now building, but already is eastern capital taking advantage of the looked-fOr great advance in realty values.
 Besides enjoying a pleasant visit with Capt Ingalls,, both Mr. Redondo and MT. Haupt met many friends of former days and enjoyed visits with them. They departed for the south last evening.

PHEASANT ANNUAL
 SCHOLASTIC EVfNI
The Entertainment Ofthe High School
 Seniors by the Juniors.

The Junior worked from morn till
 night,
 And secured pans and kettles bright. He baked and brewed with all good
 grace,
 That ne might feed the Seniors face.
 Friday evening the greatest event of the High school year took place, the occasion being the reception given the senior class of the school by the junior class For months this event has been looked forward to by many members of the upper classes. The reception is an annual custom and is the source of much pleasure and good feeling between the two classes. This year the evening was made more pleasant for the guests of the juniors by that class presenting play enti- tied "A Box of Monkeys" For the presentation of the piece those who took part had practiced hard for sew eral months, and the result of their eff forts was most pleasing to the guests.
 The leading role, that of Edward AL ston, was handled with q skill credit able to any amateur. Alexander Baker in his Chauncey OglethOrpe, the bash ful young man, did very well. Mrs. Ondega Jones was the character taken by Miss Hazel De Mund, and she was well received. Miss Eloise Grant took the character of Sierre Bengaline. and Ruth Lawrence that of Lady Guine- we're Llandpoore, both portraying their parts admirably. The members of the cast were assisted in their evenings entertainment by the male quartette and the school orchestra.
 Following the giving of the play, the banquet was served and at the close of the repast several toasts were re- sponded to. Ben F. Baum was the toastmaster and was very witty in his introductions. The toasts given were as follows:

FANCY BLOUSE WAIST 52e1. To Be Made With Low or High Neck,
 Elbow CT Gonn Sleeves.

Such an attractive blouse as this one is sure to be in demand. It is exceed ingly simple and involves the minimum of labor in the making. In the illus tration it is made of chiffon velvet with trimming of heavy lace, and is cut low at the neck, designed for evening wear, but with only the addition of yoke and cuffs it becomes adapted to afternoons and other simple occasions, while it is appropriate for almost all the pretty soft and crushable materials in vogue
 Crepe de chine and some of the newer weaves of silk. such as clare de lune, radium and the like, make exceedingly attractive evening blouses of the sort, while for daytime wear the chiffon voiles, eoliennes and the like are equally desirable. When made with high neck and long sleeves the yoke and cuffs can be of lace or of any con
