TWO MONTE CARLO INCIDENTS
Won on a Counterfeit-Crou-
piers Lucky Mistake.

Having lost every cent of his ready
money at the gaming tables, an English
visitor at Monte Carlo wired a pathetic
appeal for help to a friend in England.
Two days later he received a letter, adj
dressed in the friends handwriting,
which on being opened revealed a SIS
note.
Without pausing to read the Letter,
says Ward Muir in Chambers Journal,
our plunger fastened to Ciro's, the
famous restaurant in the Galerie
Charles III, and changed his FLYER
into French money. From Ciro's he
went straight DITTO the Casino, where,
experiencing an extraordinary u of
luck, he not merely retrieved all his
previous losses, but gained a substan-
tial increase into the bargain.
Weary of play, he retired with a few
cronies to Cigro's again to celebrate
the occasion. The usually genial MI
Giro met him at the door Of his estab-
lishment with a flood of reproaches and
upbraidings. The G5 note was bad.
He waved it angrily in the plunger's
face-mais, oui, it was false, this S5
note.
The plunger took the guilty FLYER"
and scrutiniZed it carefully. It was
n of the sham bank notes Issued by
the late Sir Augustus Harris and bear
ing on their face an advertisement of
the Drury Lane pantomime. The Eng
lish friend, himself as broke" is the
Monte Carlo plunger, had posted him
the f%agrantly worthless note as a joke
"a joke which, had the plunger taken
the trouble to examine the FLYER or
read its covering letter, he would have
seen only too clearly himself. 1t was
fortunate that he did not do so. He
merely paid Giro his SIS, and, inviting
the pacifed restaurateur to share in the
champagne, pretended that the whole
affair was an intentional witticism.
The conceit of a croupler who fondly
imagined that he understood the Eng
lish language was instrumental in pre-
senting another and far less experience
ed Britisher with 1000 francs. This
gentleman, handing a thousand-franc
billet to the croupier in question, k
for plaques in exchange for it. Plaques
are the large fve-louis gold pieces pc
culiar in Monaco. The croupier, afncy-
ing that the player had said "black"
and was requesting him to place the
note on the "black" compartment OF
the cloth, did so unobserved. Black
Judy turned up, and croupier polite
ly handed 1000 francs to the surprised
Britisher.-New York Sun

with its use is perfect. The use OG
small motor engines running with
gasoline a become yer large. In
the estimate before the committee. 10
would appear that 300, 900 of these
engines are now in use and that the
annual output is more than a 10),-
900.
These engines are especially adapt
ed to farm use fOr pumping water, cut
ting feed filling silos, threshing grain
and the multiplied uses o which a
stationary power on a farm Is adapt
ed. The principal objection to gas
oline, aside from it's cost. is the dang
er to the farm buildings from fire. A
gasoline fire can 10 be quenched With
water. On the other hand, water seems
to scatter the gasoline and increase
the danger. Bot the alcohol fire is
easily put out by b use of water.
Large numbers of these motors are
also used in automobiles. the number
of which is increasing with the won
derfui rapi1ity and for motors In small
boats.
The one question of substitution
Of alcohol in great part for gasoline
is that OF oSt- There IS another
question of the future supply Of gas
oline equal to the growing demand.
The supply is limited. The demand
seems 20 be almost unlimited. Ex-
eriments show that a gallon OF alco-
hol will produce at least 10 per cent
o power than d gallon of gaso-
line. The alcohol for this purpose
produces the best results when there
i sat leafs 10 per cent Of water In tho
mixture or in other words, when the
alcohol Is 80 per cent pure. This is
known as 80 degree alcohol.
There * Il considerable use OF al
cohol n Germany for heat, substi-
tuting L in stove for gasoline. IL
the alcohol can be produced at an
econo-ical cCst. there is no question
but, ike the Use Of a gas stoves In Cit
les, the use of alcohol stoves In the
country would grow in large propor-
tons"
But the committee had before It
abundant evidence that the cost Of
making alcohol adapted TO the 8 in
stoves and lamps and in maniac
lures IL very much less than even
these figures, making the cost less
than that ofeither kerosene, gasoline
Or wood alcohol Whose a~rfstocratic
name is "methyl alcohol" Alcohol
not fit for drinking purposes or max
ing whiskey Or compoundzng drugs,
but excellent for fuel can be made
from the lowest grade OF molasees
which IS now wasted or fed TO stock
1t can also be made from potatoes as
i IS in some sections now.

ire REVW ARIZONA

the great issue at stake in this terri tory is considered. The greatest ser vice which the delegate from Arizona in the sixtieth congress can render the people of this territory will be to pre- vent the consumation of the republican policy as announced concerning state hood for the territories of New Mex ico and Arizona. It is admitted by leading republicans in Arizona that the effort to make one state of New Mexico and Arizona will be renewed in the sixtieth congress.
 With such a renewal of hostilities rights of Arizona-Mark Smith, the man who made the fight and won 1t, or someone else who will be subject to the influence of president and the administration leaders of his own party?
 Admitting that w. F. Cooper is a bright young man possessed of energy and integrity, how would he start in to convince such men as Roosevelt. Cannon and Beveridge that they should stop their efforts for joint statehood. We do not believe Mir. Cooper or any other republican could successfully manage fight in Wash ington to save this territory from joint statehood with New Mexico. If Arizona is to be saved from the blighting curse of joint statehood it will be after a fight to finish with the Roosevelt administration, includ- ing Cannon and Beveridge. Such a fight cannot be won without the aid of the entire democratic strength in both the house and senate. The demo crats in the senate, especially, must be with Arizona There are enough patriotic republican senators to save Arizona with the aid of the solid demo- cratic vote.

TECHNICAL WAYFARERs.

Every community has it's mel. who might have been" In the cities there are thousands who had opportunities to buy skysc9apor sites in the early days fer a few dollars In the min ing camps, there are prospectors who walked over the ground where great strikes were later made.
 This class is most interesting-no merely because its members possessed ordinary human misfortune, but be- cause they always believe that they are going to get something good. This belief is deepest. The camp pro gresses, but they remain the same. They never have even felt a wavering in the faith they hold in themselves. They never have doubted-for, as they declare, they are competent to judge naturalization. They can detect 8 dyke if they see it. They know just what conditions should prevail. And theoretically, they are right.

It is the easiest Of all easy matters to have technical dream. It is delightful, because it is logical. The facts dovetail so nicely but time keeps Hitting away.

Here is good one from the New York Herald: "A special cable from Alexandria, Egypt, to this mornings Herald makes doubly interesting an- nouncement. Arrangements have been completed for shipping water from the river Jordan to all parts of the world for baptismal and other uses. That's interesting, and the fact that the enterprise is undertaken by an American company makes it doubly interesting. Most marvellous thing of all, however, the negotiations for ship ping water have been conducted by the president of the company, who is a colonel from Kentucky"

NOTHING NEW TO BE TOLD.

There will be nothing new to be told in the personal organ" of C. F. Aims worth during the campaign concerning the statehood question. That matter has been discussed practically to the exclusion of every other public mat ter for nearly two years. The people of Arizona rebelled at the idea of joint statehood. when it was first proposed by Sene tor Beveridge, and their re- beilion has grown stronger with every passing day and hour since, until now the only people to be found here in fla yor of joint statehood are a very few who have been practically kicked out of both the republican and democratic parties. Ainsworth of Maricopa, "Old Sittin' Bull'' Wilson and l.. c. Hughes of Tucson and Allen T. Bird of No gales, are the "big four" who will lead the jointure farcical campaign in Arizona. Neither Ainsworth, Wilson or Hughes were permitted to repre- sent their counties in the republican convention at Bisbae; Bird was there from Santa Cruz county, but he was not permitted to have anything to say in the proceedings.
 Both conventions at Bisbee were alike determined on one thing and that was that those in Arizona who favor a government from Santa Fe, New Mexico, for this territory should be herded to themselves; that they should have no voice in either of the old parties.
 As result of this determined policy Ainsworth becomes the candidate oi the disgruntled and discarded. Neither Ainsworth or his personal campaign organ" will be able to con vince true and loyal Arizonans that il would be we'll to turn this territory over to the domination of New Mex ico.
 The idea of joint statehood is sicken ingly abhorrent to the people of Ari zona and it will not be made more palatable by the wind d-jamming of Aims worth or the editorial flubdubbery O. his campaign organ"
 Arizonans will not now nor nevel agree to join their great and increas ing wealth with the poverty of Nev Mexico in an equal statehood partner ship. They will never agree to joil a statehood corporation, furnishing two-thirds of the capital stock ant giving two-thirds of the managing al rectors to New Mexico.
 l They will not consent to assume al increased tax burden and allow futur tax rates and the direction of tax e, pendlture to be dominated by Ne' Mexico. The present tax rate in Ar zdna is 75 cents while in New Me1 ico the rate is s1-55, more tha double. In the new proposed stat lit is hardly probably that the tax rat would be less than the present Ne
 Mexico rate.
 There $ nothing new for Ainswort to tell the people of Arizona abor : joint statehood; they know all abot ! it ard have made up their minds !, remain "a territory forever" ratht
 than to accept it.

 The American Indian accustomed from time immemorial to go barehead- ed in all kinds of weather is never troubled with falling hair or badness. The close atmosphere caused by our "ciyilized" head-gear is conducive to the breeding of infinitesimal germs which dig into the scalp and tnrive on the sap of the hair-root.
 This true cause of badness IS or recent discovery and explains the non success of all hair-vigors which treat ed badness as a functional disorder.
 Newbro's Herpicide is direct ex- terminator of the germ. Tt destroys the cause and permits the hair to grow as nature intended
