SECRETARY GARfItD'S
 PROPOSED VISIT HERE
His Train Will Be Due When the Smoke Is Seen. It May Be Tuesday But Probably Will Be Monday.

There is one statement in connection with the proposed visit of Secretary Garfield 10 these parts that may be announced quite definitely and that Is that he Is coming sooner or later If the rope don't break. Through all the itineraries that have been published one can see between the lines an in timation that he really intends to come. if he can with the help of his associates and subordinates and the railroads. figure out q plan that will work.
 Further complications in the hgur- ing upon the time of his arrival. are made by the receipt of a letter to MT. E. A. Fowler. as president of the Wat CT Users association, announcing a change in plans and stating that the secretary would arrive in Phoenix on the morning of August 9th. which Is Tuesday. The plan is for the party>to proceed immediately to Roosevelt to inspect the dam. returning to Phoenix on the evening of the 9th. according to this last advice. and leave some time the next day.
 But. as the telegram to Governor Kibbey was of more recent date. this letter being dated at Reno. New. July Sth. it seems likely that the party will reach here Monday morning in accord ance with the governors information. and then carry out the three days trip to Roosevelt. coming back to Phoenix for Thursday.
 No great anxiety is felt over the sit nation. further than the fact that the people will be very glad to see the secretary and make his visit a pleas ant one and to that end they are quite curious to know when he is coming. There is no doubt but that he will get to see what he wants to whenever he comes for it is quite certain he will be accompanied by F. H. Newell. di rector of the reclamation service and it Is believed also that Engineer Hill is now a member of his party. Both these gentlemen are well informed as to the location of the Roosevelt dam and the road to take to get there. They will probably be able to find the way even if no local committee should be on hand. Moreover, B. A. Fowler. president of the Water Users asso- citation. is expected to get home by Sunday and 1t is quite likely he will have his eye on the various sidetracks between here and Maricopa. so if the party gets in entirely unannounced, it will at least be clever.

CHILD's FRENCH DRESS 56ss.

CHILD'S FRENCH DRESS 56S9.
 The long waisted. or French dress, is so generally becoming to the wee children that it is among the best liked of all stiles. Here is one that can be made with square or high neck. short or long sleeves and that can be converted into a dressy little frock or q plain one as one material or another is used. As an illustrated white ba- tiste is finished with batiste banding on the neck and sleeves while the box plait at the front is embroidered by hand. But banding could be applied over this last or it could be left plain or medallions could be inset. Made from white lawn the frock is very dainty little one but where it made from chambray or some similar stur- dy material it would become adapted to morning wear while its essential and altogether becoming lines would remain the same.
 The dress is made with waist and
