PURPLE FAD IN PARIS.
Brightest of Hues Find Favor in the
French Capital.

A mention of purple is justified by
the fact that this color in the bright
est of hues seems a fad in Paris at
the moment. There are entire cos
tunes of it, large hats and coats of it,
and everything about the toilette is
purple. 1t is as If the women of
fashion were royalty mourning for
something departed, as indeed they
are-"we are mourning the hasty de-
parture of a too-short summer" as
some one put it in one of the smart
ateliers the other afternoon.
There is nothing unusual about this
new vogue. however, for Paris often
goes mad over color, usually a diff
cult one; but then compilations and
hair do not matter in a land that owns
the best parfarmeurs and coiffeurs in
the world

FEMININE FANCZES

Any stain can be removed if rubbed
parts of ammonia, alcohol and water.
After the skirt is thoroughly cleaned,
brushed and dried, lay it on the press
ing table or board, pin each pleat
down in the proper fold, cover the
skirt with a piece of dark wooden
goods, which has been previously
dampened, and then press.
To remove dust from silk skirts, do
not use brush, but wipe them with
piece of velveteen, which will not
wear the silk and will remove the
dust very much more satisfactorily
than a brush.
Silk or ruff1ed skirts should be fit
ted out with tapes sewn on the lower
ruffles, by which they may be hung
upside down. This prevents the skirt
from sagging and the ruff1es from
dropping.
Gowns of delicate material should
be put away in long boxes or drawers,
each skirt being folded in pleats, into
which it should fall when being worn.
The bodices should be stuffed with
tissue paper, also the sleeves and
trimmings filled out with the paper
Wash frocks should always be put
away in trunks, boxes or drawers,
whether they have been worn or not,
for in hanging they grow stringy, are
more easily affected by damrness, and
lose their freshness before they are
worn.

 Citizen, Tucson: At ten minutes after four this morning, M c. Saman- lego, an old pioneer and one of the best known men in the territory, died at his residence, No. 112 West Jackson, the immediate cause of death being congestion of the lungs. MT. Saman- lego complained yesterday afternoon of slight illness and about 6 o'clock yesterday evening took his bed. A doctor was summoned. but the decline was rapid and shortly after 4 this morning the life spark flickered and finally went out. This pioneer of Tue
 son was born in the state of Sonora,
 Mexico, July 26, 1844, a son of Bartclo and Ysabel Samaniego, natives. re- spectively. of Babispe and Fronteras, Mexico. Shortly after the death of his father in 1850 young Samaniegc and his mother moved to what is now Mesilla, New Mexico, where they con ducted a mercantile store and 1t was here that he was naturalized by the Gadsden treaty. After some years iD that place, the mother and son remov- ed to Albuquerque, where they owned large property interests. Later they moved to Tucson and Mr. Samaniego has been residing here continuously ever since.

 Speaking of the great Northwest, MT. Packard states that the country is in a very prosperous condition, and the large cities are growing rapidly and in a substantial manner.

KIBBY AMBITIOUS
 ID BEAT DEMOCRAT
Believed That Governor Will
 Resign for Race for ~.-- Congress-.

According to the Arizona Democrat the republican politicians in Phoenix are still getting upstairs and climbing over each other.
 By this it is meanth that more of the details of the political pow-wow between Kibbey, Srurges and Hitch cock are being uncovered.
 It has developed that Governor Kib- bey has concluded that he can make more money working in private life and that he would Ike to run for congress. Believing this. he has con cluded that he will resign and he told Hitchcock when he was here that he would resign. Hitchcock and Gar field both told him that he could have the job just as long as he wanted it; but for private reasons he does not want it. He thinks it would be better to be a lawyer and run for congress and beat the nominee of the democratic party, thus showing the admin stration that Arizona has the making of a republican state.
 All this is known to Committeeman StuTges and Sturges came over here ready to trade anything for the gov ernorship. It is said that he offered Kibbey the Pima county delegation .c be delivered to kibbey for congress and for Roosevelt or Taft for presi- dent if he could get the governorship. Tn other words, he was willing to trade anything he had, from his jack knife to a report in favor of the aboli- tion of the livestock sanitary board, for tte governorship.
 Kibbey, however, was foxy. He did not say so to Sturges, but 10 othe r people he intimsted that Sturges could not deliver his delegation and that he thought he would ho.d the governor ship until he could get more for it. When Hitchcock heard that Sturges could not deliver anything to Roosevelt, he also got that tired feel ing that you read about in patent med ,cine advertisements, and the chances are that Sturges will have to be sat isfied with dispensing few fourth class postoffices.
 But If there are any politicians in Arizona who are opposed to joint statehood and who have few delega tions to the territorial convention sticking around in their pockets, and If they are open to a little business on the side, they may hear something | to their advantage by calling at the governors office, or by 'phoning ovel to Sturges at Tucson.

EFFORT MADE ID
 INCREASE ARMY
Measure Will Be Presented to Next Congress for That
 Purpose.

WASHINGTON, ID. C., Aug 16.- The Dick-Capron bill, which will be put before congress this winter in the endeavor to increase by many thous- ands the numerical force of the regu- lar army of the United States, and at the same time provide for a gener- ous increase of pay in all branches of the service, is now receiving daily attention at the hands of a special
 board composed of representatives
 from the army, navy and marine corps.
 For many years 1t has been taken
 for granted that the soldiers serving
 under the United States government
 were the best paid in the world, and that belief has largely been the cause of the failure heretofore to secure an
 increase in pay.
 The board which has been meeting
 daily in this city for some time has
 found among other things that not only are the soldiers of the regular
 army not paid more than those of
 other nations, but that in reality they are paid much less than in some oth- CTS.
 I Comparisons in Pay. This fact, along with other recon mendations, will be brought to the at tention of congress when the subject of a general increase of salaries is | taken up for consideration.
 The board in it's investigations has discovered that Tn Canada, a sergeant, | for instance, enters the service of the 1 British government at $1 day, which ] increases under the provisions of the l longevity law to s1.25. The American i soldier of equal rank receives but SIS per month--a little more than half
 that received by his British cousin and his expenses are considerably ! larger than the Canadian non-commfs- stoned officer because of the differ ence in the scale of living and the | lower tariff rates on the necessities | of fife in Canada. The same diner ence of wage runs through all of the
 grades of the two armies.
 It has also been discovered, in the | investigations of the board, that Cuba, all of which might be placed in one of the United States, pays her sol
 dfers more than they receive here. 1 Other Countries Pay More. | But this is not all the board has | found. It has discovered that other countries besides Canada and Cuba pay their soldiers more wages than | the United States.
 1 This data is being gotten together 1 for presentation to congress this win l ter. It will be shown that as long as i the men of the army are so poorly ! paid assertions will be common Oc l currences and will not decrease until something is done to place the men
 On a living basis. It will also be shown that the present wage scale
 was adopted more than fifty years
 ago. with only one small increase dur ing that time, and that it will con | tinue to be difficult to properly re cruit the ranks with good men al

NJ LABOR TROUBLE
 THREATENS GLOBE
No Foundation for Persistent Strike RumorS In GiIa'S
 Metropolis,

A prominent official of the Globe miners union was asked by a Silver Belt representative last evening for a statement regarding the repeated ru- mors of strikes which have been cur rent during the last three weeks. While he did rot particularly desire to be quoted, the official stated that there has not been the slightest foun- dalton for these reports.
 Of course" he said, there are con- ditions arising from time to time which demand the attention of the union and whenever these are dis cussed at a meeting of the union and suggestions made strike rumors in- variably follow. Conditions in this district are at present generally sat isfactory and while there are a few things we would like to see altered and a few evils we would like to have remedied all are of comparatively trivial importance and the desired changes are brought about without anything nearly as serious as a strike"
 Anticipate No Trouble.
 The official concluded his remarks by saying that he wished that he was as sure of a fortune as he was that there would be no labor trouble fn Globe in the near future.
 It is understood that one of the conditions which the union desires changed relates to the wages of the men who are put to work on winzes. These men get $4 per day while men working in shafts get s4.50. The work in winZes is considered more dis agreeable and fully as dangeTOus as shaft work and there has been some agitation among the miners to have demand made or the companies for equal wages for men employed in this kind of work. If such a request is made on the companies 1t will prob ably be acceded to as only a dozen men at most in the entire district would be affected. However, no such request has been decided upon by the union.

FROM JAIL UNDER
 BAIL BOND
Dee Thomas Who Shot and Killed His Younger Brother, Admitted to Bail in Sum of S3000.
Special to ReView.)

TOMBSTONE, Aug. 16.-At 10 o'clock this morning Dee Thomas, who was being held in the county jail to await the action of the next grand jury on a charge of murder, committed in Bisbee several weeks ago, when Thomas shot and killed his younger brother, was released under bail bond in the sum of S3000, J. E. Mosher and Anderson & Gull, merchants of Bis bee, qualifying as sureties.
 The killing of Southard Thomas by his brotheS was one of the most tragic murders that has ever taken place in Cochise County, as according to his statement in the county jail a short time after the affair. the pris- soner stated to a newspaperman of Bisbee that he had ridden into town for the purpose of killing another loved.
 At the time of the preliminary hear ing neither Thomas nor his relatives made any motion for admlttanCe to bail. and it was thought that the ac- Cused man would be held fin Jail until the time of his trial. However. on Thursday a bond in the sum of 5000 was received here from Bisbee. The bond had been executed before Jus tice Hogan, who was the committing magistrate.
 This morning the under sheriff no tified Thomas that he was released under bail. and allowed him to leave the jail. The former prisoner is still in this city, and has made no definite plans as to what he will do pending the trial of his case.

Although the stock market seemed to be strong at the opening yester- day. and many of the securities made gains of a few points, no doubt due to short covering, the advantage was only short lived and before the day was over net losses for the session were recorded in many issues. Short ly before the close the downward tendency seemed to be checked. but no material advance was made.

 It is thought by some that the de cline in the quoted price of copper might have influenced the slight de- cline in these shares yesterday, but it is probable that the action in these stocks is sympathetic with the gen eral condition of the market
 The local situation is practically unchanged since Thursday, although it is known that residents of the dis trict are heavily involved in the To- cal stocks as we'll as in some of the railway securities.
 A Review reporter called at the va rious stockbrokerage offices yester- day and inquired concerning the gen eral situation as far as it involved To- cal people. In each instance it was stated that although some had not recovered from the effects of the last big slump. when the present one came on, up to that time they were in fair ly good condition. and would be able to pull through with an improvment in conditions.
 Many are hoping that today will see big rally, and the driving of the bear pool to cover.
