New Carnegie Peace Palace.

prize OF $4,000 on May II, 1906, In
competition that included architects
from many countries and comprised
PIG sets Of designs. The palace Is to
be built by Andrew Carnegie, who
first announced the project on April
22, 1908. His gift for the structure Is
$500, 900, but estimates place the
cost much higher and It is believed
that Mr.. Carnegie will meet the de-
ficlency. The Legislature OF Holland
on May 10, 1905, voted $4,000 for the
site. The building is to consist OF
justice halls and library, and the
entrance is to be through a grand vos
thule OF honor, with an imposing stair
way, but the chief feature Of the In
terror will be a magnificent Hall OF

ferences are to be held. The main
building is TO be flanked by high tow

Patron Saint of LAWYERS,

This story is told at the expense OF
Francis II. T. Maxwell. a well.known
lawyer. The members OF the Taunton,
Mass, Bar association thought they
ought to have patron saint, but after
much wrangling they could not hit up
on any particular saint.
Finally a committee, Of which Mr..
Maxwell was member, was appoint
ed to make selection. They made
a trip to New York, and there visited
a gallery where most of the saints were
carved in marble. 1t was decided ia
leave the selection to Mr.. Maxwell

PRIMA DONNA is REAL TRlLeY,
Bessie Abbott Says She Can't Sing
Well Unless Sister Is Present.

New York.-That she is Trllby in
real life-drawinS her inspiration
from the psychic bond existing be-
tween herself and her twin sister,
Jessie, whose presence in the audi
ence when she sings is necessary to
her success-was the assertion frank
ly made the other day by Miss Bes-
sic Abbott. one of Herr Conried's
prlma donnnas.
Miss Abbott's admission was all
the more Astounding because of two
announcements she was making, One
was that rumors that she was en-
gagged were true, she keeping secret
the identy OF her betrothed; the other
was that as long IS she remained on
the stage her sister must never mar
ry. This part of her statement was
made on account of recent reports
that Jessie was engaged to James G..
Blaine III.
Il will never sing again." declared
the prima donna firmly. III my sister

TO be directed in another channel.
From my first appearance on the

Miss Abbott and her mother re-
fused to discuss the report that Jessie
was engaged to Mr.. Blaine.

ern Illinois or Missouri so adapted to the pro- duction of corn as this valley along the Colorado River. With alfalfa and corn, the butter cheese, eggs, poultry and pork to be raised on a twenty-acre farm will amaze those who have the largest experience in American agricultural affairs.
 The winter climate around Yuma is a thing so intoxicatlngly salubrious that no words can describe it. These deserts of America, as we have regarded them heretofore, seem to defy the ills that human nature elsewhere is so prone to contract and suffer from. The atmosphere
 is as dry as punk, the skies cloudIeSsly clear, the air mild as possible, and every breath seems to be an inspiration of new life The United States has an experiment farm on the mesa just on the outskirts of Yuma. Here results evep more marvellous than in.the valley are produced Down on the lower levels there are little nips of frosty mornings occasionally during December and January, but on-the mesa the breath of frost never touches the most delicate vegeta- tion. Oranges grown at the Federal expert ment station are unsurpassed in their delicious quality.
 Yuma is busy, up-todate town The more modern improvements consist of several blocks of attractive brick buildings, three-story post office building, also of brick, and many other nice structures. Among some of the greater improvements which are being made are S35 OCO school building, S75,O00 ice plant, fine clubhouse for the railroad employees, larger passenger depot, and the probability of new courthouse to cost $75,OOO. There is consider able business done there, but the people have not begun to awaken to the vast possibilities of the place. They should at once erect an up-to- date tourist hotel. It should have ample grounds around it and be planted with all kinds of tropical vegetation. If atmosphere were only transporta5lo like mineral waters and one could send consignmentS of this Yuma winter air to the East the inspiration of it's health giving qualities would bring 25,0OO tourists every winter to the banks of the Colorado River.
 Yuma needs only to make known it's climatic attractions in the parts of the East swept every year by blizzards and snowstorms to attract a city full every winter The fertility of the val ley below will almost make itself known with out effort on the part of the people. But with a valley full of an intelligent and industrious rural population, producing fruits and vege tables, poultry, eggs, fresh milk and fragrant butter, Yuma should be one of the most de- lightful winter resorts in all America. There is everything there to furnish tourists with the most healthful and delicious food, and if the air in that region does not drive doctors to seek a living elsewhere, it will be because the people do not know how to live properly.
 It will take about three years more to con- plete the Laguna dam, and in ten years from today the attractions Of Yuma as health resort and the fertility of these bottom lands will be so well known that it will require 5000 in cash to buy single acre of it..

A Curious Combination.

A few days ago the Good Ter plars of Massachusetts petition ed the legislature of that state to grant women the right to vote on the question of license. A hearing was held before the committee on elections, and oc- cording to the press dispatches Charles R. Saunders of Boston, counsel for the Massachusetts association opposed to the furth- CT extension of suffrage to wom en, appeared in opposition, as did also Edward r. Holli :, rep resenting the Massachusetts Wine and Srirlt Dealers Associ- ation. The opposition of the latter specialization is logical, but what the woman sutfragist would like to know is this: Are the organized "antis" working with the organized liquor dealers in systematic effort to prevent any fraction of suffrage being extended to women?

He says that there are more than 100 men working northeast of Jacumba blasting out a road bed, and that the en- gineer in charge told him that there was 8 stretch of seven miles along the lowest pass of the mountains where it was ne- cessary to blast a right of way.
 Then will come a 700-foot tun- nel through rock. From that point the road will swing to the northeast and will come onto the desert through the CarissoVcreek way a short distance southwest of Imperial. It will then most likely pass through Imperial and go around the sand dunes to the northeast.
 Today's train brought grad ing outfit to Calexico to begin work on the extension of the Imperial branch of the Southern Pacific through Lower Califor- mia to Yuma. It is also claimed that the company will work on their road from Calexico to En- senada at the same time.

Mines North of Yuma.

The mining district being open ed in the northern part of Yuma county by the Arizona and Cali fornia railroad, is attracting the attention of not only Arizona,
 but of the whole Southwest.
 New camps are being continually started and new mines discover ed which will surprise the coun- try by their size and richness as soon as the country is traversed by branch lines of the Arizona and California, says the Journal Miner. Perhaps the most prom iSing strike recently made in the region is that on the Palmer properties adjoining the Carrigan mines on the south. A tunnel has been run on the deposit from gulch about 100 feet in depth where the deposit was washed away, in which d large body of copper ore was uncovered simi- lar to that found in the Carrigan and apparently equally as rich in gold, the yellow metal being plainly visible to the naked eye and just as attractive as that found in the Carrigan about a year ago. There is also good ore exposed in every shaft, hole or drift on the Carrigan and Palmer locations. Palmer and his partners have an excellent showing in the Harcouvar noun tains near Cunningham Pass from which they are preparing to make a car load shipment of ore.

POSSIBILITIES OF YUMA
 REGION UNEMPLOYED.
The Soil Simply Marvellous in Its
 PrOduCtiyeneSS.
And the Climate is Int0xiCatingly
 Sdlubri0us.
BY GEORGE W. BURTON, In Los Angeles Times.

It is very far from semi-mellenium since three little open boats under the flag of Spain first touched the waters of the western hemi- sphere and revealed the New World to the eyes of Europeans. It is only a little over century since the United States of America sprang, so to speak, like Pallas Athcne from the brain of love, a completely armed addition to the family of nations It is but little over half century since California became part of these United States of America, and less than a generation since the settlement of the Great Southwest began.
 In all the 125 years since the Republic was founded also in the half century since California became one of the States of the Union and dur ing every year of the last thirty a realization of the vast riches of the American continent, of the territory of the United States and of this Great Southwest has been more and more as tonishing the minds of men. One would sup pose that by today we knew pretty thoroughly what the undeveloped resources of the Great Southwest might reasonably be expected to be- come. We have not reached the depths of this great ocean of wealth with our plummet line yet.
 In residence of forty years on the Coast the writer thought he knew little about what there is on the Coast, and as most of these years have been spent in and around Los An geles, he naturally had little conceit that he was pretty well acquainted with the Great Southwest. Last week trip to the Colorado River bottoms, below Yuma made him feel as a tenderfoot who had come Tn on the last train New to him, this wonderful region and it's poss- bilities are pretty well known to great many readers of The Times by the stories published if not by the demonstration of their own eyes,
 Yuma lics'on the map just twelve miles from where the government is putting in the great Laguna dam. at the confluence of the Gila and Colorado Rivers. It is twelve miles from Yuma down the river to the Mexican boundary line on the Arizona side of the river. At one point just below Yuma, the international boundary line runs up along tho river which there takes a westerly trend and from Yuma to Mexico is only few miles.

ONCE A MIGHTY STREAM.

Ages ago, when the mountain ranges of Ari- zona and California lowered toward the stars, at least twice high they do now, rains were very frequent and came down in torrential volumes all along these mountain ridges. The Colorado River in these past ages was mighty stream, sweeping down debris in tons every second of it's flow. The Colorado sink was at that time great inland sea, which spread over the country on both sides of where the river now runs. As the erosion of winds and storms, landslides and glaciers wore down the mountain ridges year by year, the great river carried down a vast amount of silt eroslon from the rocks full of phosphates Times and disintegrated granites, well as the vegetation along it's banks, and this was all deposited in what are now the sinks of the Colorado.
 As the mountain tops were worn down, the rains became less frequent and less in volume, but the erosion of rocks and river banks, the trees and vegetable mould torn from the banks still came down and settled into the bottom of the great inland lake, This geological process went on from age to age to our time leaving the Colorado at Yuma a stream about half a mile wide and being at the present time about twenty feet deep in the deepest portion.
 It is not necessary to remind Californians that the Spanish missionaries and explorers called this river the Colorado because Of the reddish color of its waters. It is the Colorado up in the Grand Canyon in Arizona and down past The Needles. But at this time of the year, after passing the mouth of the 'Gila. instead of the red river it becomes the brown river. It act ually looks today as if 10 per cent of it's flow was silt and only 90 per cent water. The great weight of this mass of liquid impregnated by so much solid makes the cutting of of the flow of the river where the railroad is trying to close the break much more difficult Once choSed of however, the silt will settle around the rocks

RICHES OF SOIL WONDERFUL.


 But the object of this story is to call attention once more, and for perhaps the thousandth time to the riches of the soil along the Colorado on both sides, incident to the deposting of this mass of debris during all the past ages. Going through the country on the Arizona side of the river, for several miles below Yuma, one en- counters the same type of country and soil that is found in the Imperial Valley country around Brawley, Calexico and other points west of the river. The fertility of the black prairie soils of Illinois has astonished people engaged in agri- culture for nearly 100 years The fertility of the valley of the Nile has been . matter of history for at least 6 09 years. Those who are familiar with Illinois prairie soil, and those who know what the valley of the Nile is for agriculture, know that this lower Colorado River region sur passes both of them.
 If you ask farmer along this stretch of country if the soil is six feet, his eyes will open with astonishment at your ignorance. He will tell you no one knows whether it is 60 feet, 600 or 5000 feet deep. It is practically without bot tom. It is so thoroughly we'll mixed with sand, diSintegrated granite and other rocks that it never bakes It is as easily worked as heap of ashes, and responds to cultivation in way that is marvellous
 CUT TEN CROPS YEARLY.
 Arizona has established an experiment. statio2 in the heart of this big valley, which is some twenty four miles long,, and in spots ten to twelve miles wide, down on the lower level. The results are wonderful. Last week they were cutting crop of alfalfa on this expert mental farm, and for ten consecutive months they will cut succeeding crops. The only months when the crop is not cut here are December and January.
 Cotton and tobacco grow with the greatest luxuriance; and this rich alluvial soil will be noted in a very few years as the ideal spot in the whole country for dairying hog raising, the production of poultry and vegetables, which one heSitates to call early or late. they will be perennial New potatoes will be produced in the middle of January, tomatoes will be ripe by the first of March, ripe grapes will be gath cred in the early days of May, and apricots by the middle of the same month. Chickens and turkeys flourish there in the winter time beyond all experience anywhere else.
 The rainfall is exceedingly light and comes only three or four times in whole winter. With an abundance of green alfalfa and vege- tables in the dry and not overheated climate in the winter months chickens are free from the diseases that make their raising difficult elsewhere.
