Princesses Clementine and Josephine,
view the monarch's Congo rule with
positive adherence. The Princess
Clementine is philanthropist, and
every considerable charity in Belgium
looks to her for more or less moral
and material support.
Every winter the princess is the
leading spirit in the Salon de Neige,
or gallery of snow sculptures, carved
in the parks by art students and pro-
fessors and exhibited for charity. The
princess is the first person to be adj
mitted within the gates, and she usu-
ally places 100-franc note in the
hands of the student who stands as
money taker in the lodge. In her
wake come the rank, wealth and fash
ion of Belgium, and the hospitals of
Brussels benefit by this one occur
renee to the tune of perhaps $4,000.
In the early summer the princess
goes to Spa for the cure, but is never
seen in the great casino, whose gam
bling rivals that of Monte Carlo itself.
1t is well known that the princess has
been deeply afflicted by the scandals
caused by her fathers friendships with
actresses and undesirable characters,
but above all in the matter of the
Congo administration, with its "red
rubber" and nameless cruelties.
Princess Clementine Is helpless in
the matter, however, although her
views are perfectly well known, llav-
ing been ELECTED more than once by
the "Etoile Beige" and other leading
newspapers of the country. She has
box at the Theatre de la Monnaie,
the beautiful little opera house of
Brussels, but her life is planned on a
businesslike system.
Thus when in Brussels she rises at
z o'clock in the morning, breakfasts
in her room, and then drives her
ponies in the Bots for an hour. Then
back to the big palace, where various
charitable committees are waiting to
consult her royal highness about rou-
tine work. Her correspondence is ex-
traordinarily large, even for royal
princess. Every afternoon she may
be seen walking in the slums of Brus-
sells with a couple of her ladies, pay
ing personal visits to the poor and
suffering, distributing money with a
WISE and discreet perception of it's

SYLLABUS OF THE COURT
Decision in Park Case is Based on q
Single Ground-New Law Will
be Framed at Once.

The syllabus of the decision in the
park law case, handed down by the
supreme court Wednesday shows that
the decision holding the law uncon-
stitutfonal was based only on one
ground. The court holds that COM
mission appointed by the city council
has no right to levy taxes without
the consent of the tax payers. The
syllabus follows:
Debts of a city contracted for paw
ing and sewer purposes are not to be
computed in ascertaining whether
the debt limit has been exceeded.
There is no general liability against
the city for such Indebtedness except
for the one-fifth portion of the cost
of paving.
Bonds issued by an Independent
school district of the city of Grand
Forks are not to be committed as
debts of the city in ascertaining
whether the debt limit has been ex-
ceeded.
"a law empowering a city council
to determine by vote whether the city
will avail itself of the provisions Of
the law is not unconstitutional as a
delegation to the council of legislative
power.
The fact that the 1905 law creates
a board to be appointed by the coun-
Gil whose powers over control of and
government of parks are the same as
those conferred by law upon the city
council by former laws, does not rem
der the 1905 law invalid.
"a municipality has power to pro-
vide for the payment of annual in
terest on bonds to be issued by it, al
though the law authorizing the issue
of such bonds does not expressly au-
thorize it to make provisions for the
payment of such bonds or annual in
teret thereon.
AN act of the legislative assembly
authorizing the board appointed by
the city council without consent of
the people to levy general taxes is I'M
constitutional as delegation of legis-
lative power"

A MtfRSCHAUM MINE
 IN MARlCOPA COUNTY
A New Mineral Find of Novel Inter- terest and Perhaps of Great Mone- tary Value.

If one at all familiar with Arizona will scan her listed resources for a moment, stop and think of their pos sible development. he must admit that the future wealth of the territory. or state. is almost inconceivable. But it is equally as true that many of her resources are not yet even discovered and this short item is merely to an- nounce one that has not been hereto fore exploited, if it was ever known.
 L. E. Hewins and R. H. Palmer re- gently filed on six or seven mineral claims not far from the property of the Pikes Peak Mining Co., thirty five miles northwest of Phoenix The title work is now being done and MT. Hew- inS is going up to see them again in day or two. Just what their value is can now be spoken of only in con- lecture but there is running across them a two foot ledge of a material said to be mainly silicate of magnesia. which is the book name for what is commonly known as meerschaum. from which pipes and high priced fan cy articles are made. a material that is supplied to the markets of the world mainly from Europe, and the older de- posits of which are fast becoming ex- hausted.
 MT. Hewins has a number of speci- mems in his office. some of them of considerable size, and lot of still finer specimens he has prepared for shipment east for a careful examina- tion by competent authorities. The stone. or clay. or whatever it may be called is marvelously light, lighter even than pine wood of the same di- mensions, in fact as light as feer- schaum. Some of it is very clear and chalky and easily whittled and again some of it carries occasional crystal lized spots that would make it less valuable. But there is a large quan- tity of it in good sized proportions that will surely prove a fine commer- cial article if it shall be determined that it really is a meerschaum. At the present time it is only explored along the surface and MT. Hewins while not permitting himself to get excited about it, proposes to make a careful explora- tion of the find before he passes it up for it looks like something worth while.

turn in a reasonable time Mrs. Sigala began to worry and along about l o'clock she heard some one stagger- ing in the yard and called to a neigh Dor who lived next door. By the time she arrived the supposed intruder reached the house and proved to be M-. Sigala, who fell unconscious on the floor.
 Physicians were summoned to attend him and word was sent to Sam Brown, city marshal. as soon as practicable, though it was then two or three hours after the trouble. Mir. Brown with the few facts that could be furnished made clean up of the town and arrested three Yaquis and two Mexicans. who were suspected of being in the party that had the trouble. One of the Ya- quis had Sigala's gun. Later yester- day one of-the suspects was able to prove an alibi, but the other four are held pending an investigation and an examination, probably on the charge of an assault to commit murder.
 Constable Sigala remained in an un- conscious condition all day Sunday until late in the afternoon when he anu was lO idih d hltiN. He said that when he went over to the depot he was assaulted by four men armed with wine bottles and that they began beating him over the head and choking him. Seeing that he was b. ing overpowered he managed to draw his gun and threw it away. In some way, he was too weak to recount the details, he got away from the gang and started home more dead than alive fainting away as he fell through the door.
 It would seem rather strange that he did not use his gun after getting hold of it, but it is quite possible that he thought he would just be able to kill enough of his enemies to irritate the rest of them and work his own de- struction. He was too weak to give many details last evening but was getting better all the time and the doc tors said they thought he would be all right in two or three days, though at first they feared he was mortally hurt.

 TERRIBLY BEATEN
Tempe Officer Choked and Almost Killed by Party or Drunken Mex jeans and Indians Saturday Night.

On Saturday night the old man with the scythe sent bunch of drunken Yaquis and Mexicans after Chris Si- gala, constable at Tempe, and he came very near going with them. He how cred between life and death until yes terday afternoon when consciousness returned and it was thought last ev- ening that he would be all right again in a few days though he suffered a most terrible beating.
 He lives about two blocks from the Santa Fe depot in Tempe and about midnight. Saturday, he heard a great deal of noise near the depot as though drunken men were fighting. He arose and dressed himself for the purpose of quelling the riot so people in that vi- cinity could sleep. As he did not re-

The price level has not been so
high in twenty-five years. Ac-
cording to Dun's index num-
Der" the price level for COM
modities on Decem ber1, 1906, was
over 10 per cent greater than in
July, 1896, the lowest point
reached. According to Brad
streets tables average prices are
now more than 30 per cent higher

chiefly in the United States as a

Prices have risen about 80 per
cent during the last ten years,
about 30 per cent in England
and Germany and probably more
in Japan. The rise in other coun-
tries may be estimated at 20 per
cent. To the deprecated value
of gold may be attributed the
rapid and general rise in money
wages. Farm wages have risen,
and NOW average 10 per cent
more than a year ago. Probably
the best test of the general rise
in the money wage level in this
country is furnished by the sta
tistics of railroads made yearly

Commission. Nearly all the

wages of all employees getting

ard rise appearing to be 10 per
