Prof. II. A. Douglass of the University
Of Arizona. In an articlssfor the Popu-
lar Science Monthly, advances the the
CRY that some of the so-called canals on
the surface Of the planet Mars have no
real existence. but are due to an optical
Illusion. He does not question the reality
Of the larger markings of canals, but
doubts the existence Of the network Of
the smaller waterways Prof Douglass
theory starts with the observation Of the
halo that may be seen around a small
black spot when regarded from the dis
lance Of six TO eight fest, and which also
IL often noticed around notes floating In
the field Of vision. He finds that the
cause lies In the obscure reactions that
change light waves into nerve impulses.
He also calls attention to the rays that
may be seen about black spot on light
ground similar to those about q bright
spot. such as a star. on . dark ground.
These are attributable to irregular re-
fraction In the eye, and account. In his
opinion. for many faint canals radiatinx
from the spots on Mars called lakes or
eases.

WILL NOT MOVE
 THE CIRCUIT COURT

According to Simon Bloom, the mer- chant-planter from Warner, Lincoln county the efforts of certain residents of that county to bring about the re- moval of the circuit court from Var ner to Star City, will not result suc- cessfully "A majority of the residents of Lincoln county oppose the change" said MT. Bloom this morning. "The petition in the hands of Jules Hellums, asking that the court be not sent to Star City" is signed by nearly eight hundred property owners of Lincoln county, while the petition favoring the change, has only 16O signers. The accommodations at Warner are not in- adeuate. The hotel there is large enough to accommodate court attend ants and others, and the fact that Var ner is on the main line of the rail- road is another reason why the place of holding the circuit should not be changed. In my opinion the request for removal of the court headquar- ters, will not be granted"

 Washington, March 4.-With the at noon today many changes took place in the rosters of both the sen- ate and the house of representatives. Overshadowing these in immediate importance, however, is the shake up in the cabinet, whereby George B.

 MT. Cortelyou has little to say re- garding his conduct of the treasury department, and has made public no definite plans of management and personnel, other than that the de- partment will be run on the princi pie of a square deal to all interests, both great and small. The friends of the new secretary are not so se cretive, and declare that he will shortly bring about decided change that will not tend to make him highly popular with the Wall street financiers.
