the attention of farmers in less favor ed localities and they will be brought to believe what I know-this is the
 best country on earth. These letters prove it..
 Said Charles Korrick: Tt was a great edition and there is no doubt that the valley will soon feel the good effect of it. The photographs them selves tell what is here. They will open the eyes of strangers who have heard oi the valley and the paper will astonish thousands who never dreamed that such opportunities exist here
 Elliot Evans believes that the edi- ton would be a great thing for the valley and that the papers would go where they would do the most good.
 Tt was great stroke of business" |" said w. D. Fulwiler. ''I have not the slightest doubt that it will mean much to Phoenix. It tells strangers just what they want to know: Every fact stated is true: it comes nearest to be- ing an actual description of conditions here that l have ever seen"
 Said Frank D. Lane of F. J. Ben nit & Co: Tt is big thing for Phoenix and the whole valley. 1 have never seen so much descriptive of this region as is contained in this morn ings Republican
 C. D. Doris was confident that the edition would set many thousands of people in different parts of the coun- try to thinking of Phoenix and would eventually add greatly to the popula- ton of the valley.
 One point dwelt upon by nearly all who were seen with reference to the edition that the size of it struck a happy medium between uninteresting verboseness and vague brevity: that it contained practically everything that the intending settler might want to know about and ii there were any thing lacking he was guided in making inquiry as to more minute details. Some spoke of the systematic arrange ment that had been made for its dis tribution by which none of the. 20. .0O9 copies would be wasted; that they would all reach persons who were most likely to consider propositions for inn proving their conditions, in some of whom an interest in this region had already been awakened.
 W. J. Murphy said he had not had an opportunity to read the paper yet but a glance told him it was all right and the letters from the farmers were the best part of it. Such testimony could not help but greatly benefit the country.
 I. T. Stoddard said the paper was certainly a splendid one and its in iluence would be widely noted.
 J. F. Cleaveland said he had read the paper very carefully and he con sidered il a great credit to the man. a agement both mechanically and edi- torially IL will disseminate d great deal of information that many are now seeking.
 Colonel McClintock when asked for an opinion said: Tt is d remarkably fine thing and l especially like the fea- lure of the personal experiences of men who have made good at farming in the Salt River valley"
 Territorial Secretary John H. Page, on the Homeseekers' Edi- tion said: Tt will do lot of good. and Is a fine paper to send away"

THE LATEST MODES
 OF THE METROPOLIS
Easter Hats-Flowers the Preferred Trimring-FIower Pompons-The Russian Turban.

At the present time nearly every woman is supremely interested in shopping for her Easter hat and her new spring dresses. Large. small and medium hats are all popular
 Easter Hats.
 A great many white hats are shown. as well as hats in natural tones and straw of wood brown smoke color tan, blue and of course black. These are trimmed with punches or garlands of bright or big punches of some Of the new airgrettes. Straws in very bright tints of red and pink are mak- ing their appearance. Hats of crim- son or rose-Colored straw. net or horse hair braid are seen and are intended to be worn with black CT dark-colored tOiietteS.
 The large toquc or Russian turban. as il is called in Paris. is an entirely new idea this season. This k a big turban shape that entirely covers the top of the head. Some of the most ef- fcctiVe of these have crowns entirely covered with tiny ruchings of white net or mOusseline- de-soie. while the

 Flowers the Fash onable Trimming.
 Flowers are unduo stionably the fash ionable trimming for the Easter hat Large roses and ether conventional effects of tl,is rat"re a-a much used on large hats. while on some of the smaller sha.es 2 wreath of medium sized roses gives pretty effect A lovely urban seen at q Fifth Avenue milliners had a band of these flowers around the lower edge of the upturned bDim. Put the very newest thing of all in floral garniture is the large pom pon effect. This is usually made of small flowers and is either placed di- dectly in the front or else at the side and d little to the back Of the hat on the new Russian turbans the flower pompon placed exactly in the front is considered particularly smart.
 The Importance of Details.
 Gloves and shoes are of first im- portdnce as is well understood by all women who achieve reputation for good dressing. Better the simplest tailored suit with fine. we'll matched. accessories than the most elaborate costume if these details are carelessly selected.

ChintZ parasols are entirely new this season and very gay and pretty they arc. Summer hats are trimmed with chintz and it Is also the fashionable material for very smart looking fans.

 FOR AN ADVANCE
The Only Depressing Influence Was the Condition of Copper.

New York. April IA galvanic ef- fect was produced on the stock market al the outset today by the announce mcnt of permission granted to the Erie railroad by the public service commission to issue Slj.000. 900 of notes. It $ assrr,red that settle ment of the financial crisis confronting the company is thus assured and that q receivcrship Of the company. which was freely rumored yesterday. is avoided.
 Efforts were made to maintain the advance and prices went higher than the opening level. Union Pacific was a conspicuous sustaining force. and was heavily bought on the upward range. A sharp rally in steel also re- licvcd the market from the depressing effect of the liquidation in that stock. There was little effect produced direct ly on the market by the reduction of the dividend rate cf the Atchison from to , per cent basis and international paper preferred from a to 1 per cent basis. Copper stocks were on the point of depression again. with American Smelling in evidence. \ sharp drop ia the price of copper in London and another reduction in quoted prices on the New York exchange had to do with this.

UNREST IN HATH
 REFUGEES SCARE D
Fearful that the French Legation Can not Afford Them Continued Protee tio-.

Port Au Prince. April IA spirit of uncertainty and unrest still prevails at Port Au Prince. The recent abortive attempt at a second uprising here in which General Larraque. chief of cav airy. and several other army officers. it is alleged, were implicated. has given the government cause for searching all quarters of the city in the hope of finding other suspects involved tn the plot.
 The French minister of Hayti. Car terOn. has recently shown considerable alarm concerning the action of the Haytien government may take against the. refugees now at the French lega- tion. Some of the refugees themselves say that the minister has advised them to procure pistols and as much ammu- milton as possible SO that they may be prepared to defend their lives. Ac- cording to the refugees, CarterOn told them that he was unable to guarantee them protection in the event of an at tack upon the legation by government troops. The French minister when asked today in regard to the statement declined to deny or affirm 1t. but he did say that he had made represen- tation in the case to NJ. Borne. minister of state, pointing out to him the French contention that the giving of sanctuary 10 refugees E-as an abso- lutely legitimate proceeding.
 IL is generally believed here that the alarm of the French minister Is unfCunded. Up to the present the governments attitude has been con- ciliatory one. and it seems to be it's in- tentiOn not to offer the slightest eX- cuse for foreign intervention There are rumors here that summary eXecu- tiOns continue in nearby country dis tricts. For d long time past the gov ernment had large number of so- called political prisoners on hand. IL is reported that almost nightly some Cf these are taken from the prisons. transported to tine country districts not very remote from the city and shot. This the government vehemently de- nias.
 The French cruiser D'Estrces has not returned here from the island of St. Thomas where she took the re- fugees from GunaiVcS The German cruiser Bremen returned yesterday from Kingston. The United States cruiser Des Moines and the gunboat Marietta are still here. the sunbOat Eagle having left two days ago.

w. C. T. u. WANT JACKIES
TO HAVE NO BOOZE HERE
Urqes Entertainment Committee to
Omit Liquor from Program and
Plans to Give Dry but
Glad Welcome

No liquor for Uncle Sans sailors when
the fleet visits Los Angeles is a state OF
affairs which the Southern California
w. c. r. u would like to see brought
about. and according to members or the
temperance organiza ton request TO tnal
effect and addressed to the entertainment
committee already is In the mails.
Mrs. L. W. Irvine of Riverside, first
vice president of the union. and Mrs. G.
T. Stickney, 906 East Twenty-ninth street
Los Angeles, who is the soclety's presi-
dent, called on John b. Elliott, secretary
of the committee, and stated that the
members of their organization stood
ready to assist in the entertainment OF
the men and officers of the warships.
They also stated that at a mass meeting
a few days ago resolutions were passed
requesting that those in charge or the
entertainment of the visitors have the
sale of intoxicants prohibited in this city
during the stay of the fleet.
1t was argued that such action would
be great advertisement for the city;
and, 70 further justify their stand, the
temperance workers called attention to
the fact that former Secretary of the
Navy Long had prohibited the sale of
LIQUOR on naval reservations and other
places where he had jurisdiction.
Mr.. Elliott gave the representatives no
definite answer regarding the matter, but
stated that If the letter reached him be-
fore next Tuesday afternoon he would
bring It to the attention of the commit
tee, which meets at that time.
The representatives informed Mr.. FL
liott that if there was a public reception
the w. G. T. U. would like to have rep
resentative present provided, of course,
that no liquor was used in entertaining
the visitors.

Urge Council to Make city's Beautiful
Driveway Show Thorouehfare
and Exclude Heavy
Teamlng

Residents of West Adams street, be-
tween Main street and Vermont avenue,
have asked the city council to pass an
ordinance that will place the street In
the list OF boulevards and forbid heavy
teaming.
The reasons cited are that the character
of the pavement will not stand heavy
teaming; that Adams street. being with
out street cars, affords a fine driveway
for light vehicles and is one Of the show
streets of the city; that no necessity ex-
lists for business traffic or teaming there
as there are no business houses on the
street, and Washington street, bust
ness street, reaches and will supply all
territory as well as II Adams street were
in use for such purpose.
The petition bears the signatures OF

PRESc HUM0RISTS HAVE
TROUBLES OF THEIR OWN
Task of Collecting Funds for Monu-
ment to Bill Nye Is No Joke, Say
Members, and New Plans
Are Being Arranged

THE task of building a monument for
Bill Nye," said Frank 7. Starlight of
this city, newly elected president of the
American Press Humorists, yesterday, SIS
like building up a joke. 1t takes ex-
perts. Now we are doing the best we
can. But we are not going quite fast
enough I am sorry some of the pro-
ceeds of the monument fund had to be
taken to defray travelling expenses OF
the entertainers at our Press Humorists'
rtainment last year; but then, l ar
gued, that II they had not come we would
have had no entertainment And that
was worth a lot.
Back east where they are complaining
of We'll street and hard times and other
Jokes the Press Humorists seem to be
weathering the storm about as nicely as
we are in Los Angeles sunshine here.
You know Strickland w. Gillian, who
used to be on The Herald, has written
our association a prescription which is
being followed pretty closely back east.
Even Morgan and Rockefeller rent IT,
they say. Here 1t is. How to live on
10 cents day: Buy cents worth OF
milk for breakfast. Buy cents worth
of bread for dinner. Eat them at sup

the association than anything else-save

Judd Mortimer Lewis of the Houston,
Texas, Pest, the only man in the south
west who can afford to have double
ID on the end OF his name these hard
times, has several plans under way Tor
our convention there next year. l told
him of one think will make the MOWERS
grow and the scent of the onion fill the
land, But don't want to open that one
till the spring time comes over the range
as they sing at the moving picture shows;
Albert Waterhouse had his name spelled
a score of different ways when the papers
were describing our convention here last
year. One of the eastern scribes even
got him as the logical successor to Tart

and nerriment reigns, even though that
