Munsterberg a Total Abstinent.
If a German stands up to talk
about prohibition, he might just
as we'll sit down at once, for ev-
cry one in America, of course,
knows beforehand what he is 60
ing to say. Worse, every one
knows also exactly why he is so
anxious to say it; how can he
help being on the wrong side of
this question? And especially if
he has been a student in Germa-
ny, he will have brought the
drinking habit along with him
from the Fatherland, together
with his cigar smoking and card
playing and duelling. Yet my
case seems slightly different. |
never in my life played cards, l
never fought a duel, and when
the other day in a large women's
college, after an address and a
reception, the lady president
wanted to comfort me and sug-
gested that go into the next
room and smoke a cigar, told
her frankly that | could do it if
it were the rule in her college,
but that it would be my first ci-
gar. With beer it is different.
Last winter, in travelling, | was
for some days the guest of an E.
piscopal clergyman, who, antici-
pating the visit of a German,
had set up bottle of excellent
beer as a welcome, and we drank
together the larger part of the
bottle-but | think that is my
only case in late years. When |
had to attend a Students Com
mers," was always protected
by the thick mug through which
no one could discover that the
contents never became less dur
ing the evening. And, although
| have become pretty much A
mericanized, l have never drunk
a cocktail. Prof. Hugo Munster

Had You
Planned to do
Any Papering?

Well, by far the most particular
part of all your plans is to make
sure that the right paper goes on
the walls.
The cost of the paper is worth con-
sidering-but style, newness, suit
ability is your main lookout.
For it is quite possible for you to
pay us DC roll and get new de-
signs, while at other places you
may pay as high as 4Oc roll, and
still have patterns away behind
the times.
The hint should be plain enough.
We've whole NEW stock to
show you-a bright, dependable
lot of paper. Wall paper that you
can buy from IN safety without
knowing anything at all about
Wall Paper quality.
We are really anxious to have you
see it, for we feel that we can
make it profitable for you to do
your buying here.

and seeing a S26.0O0 bar of gold turn ed ont. members of the party were very enthusiastic over the mine and it's future. But the visitors were duly from the mineral resources of Arizona. Yesterday the day was devoted to a tour of the principal sights in the val ley. Particularly interested were they in the orange orchards. A number took advantage of the opportunity to ship a box east to their families.
 Why. if they had told me before coming to Arizona said MT. Rubens, that you could pick oranges here in January. that roses bloomed all win ter. and that peas and all garden veg etables flourished here at this season, would never have believed it. The entire valley was a great surprise to all of us and I only wish We had longer to remain here
 The Arcola people come from the richest section in the Sucker state where land tsells as high as $125 per acre. Their visit here however leads them to believe that this country has the greatest agricultural possibilities and land is very cheap at the price asked It was a sort of revelation to them 10 step from the frozen prairies into a land, warm and abounding in growing crops and green fields. MT. Snyder declared that the Arizona oranges were the most delicious he had ever tasted and was surprised to find that they com manded a better price than the Cal ifornfa product IL was one regret of the visitors that they did not have time to spend a few days in a trip to the Roosevelt reservoir. However they will carry back some new and lasting impressions and it is not un- likely that they. or their friends. through their recommendations may come here to look for investments. Most of the party leave today for trip to the Grand Canyon. after which they will return to their respective homes.

MORE HIGH FINANCE
 THAT DID NOT WORK
Story of Fraudulent Check Which Broke Down Under the Weight of Too Heavy a Load.

Another check transaction came to crisis yesterday, leaving a woman practically stranded or at least side tracked, in Phoenix. while her husband the chief manipulator has gone hence. Incidentally local business people are thus far the losers.
 MT. and Mrs. Arnold appeared in the city recently. coming from Tempe and previously from Globe. where report says Arnold's financial operations were not approved of. though it is not known definitely whether he still has creditors there or not. He posed here as a caterer and hotel and saloon man. possible investor in some Phoenix project if he could find anything that appealed 10 him. While posing in this role he familiarized himself in the precincts of the California Wine house until he had gained confidence and S6e of Prosper Bordone. Incidentally he had made merry at the Ford grill room room and likewise let his identity be known as a good fellow and probable local business man. This secured an advance of $10 from Messrs. Haffner &Williams as the result of the rush act.
 In the meantime Mir. and Mrs. Ar mold had given up their apartments at the new Dennis house. but it is under stood they had not given up any mon ey there, anyhow not enough to cover their indebtedness. MT. Arnold all this time had been acquiring more or less standing at the Hotel Adams by his patronage of the bar and his gen eral sociability and the couple finally sought its sheltering roof As q fel- low hotel man he was given some courtesies and secured a sl0 advance on an l Q L pending the arrival of his money. A day or two ago he pre- sented a check on a local bank, signed by Mrs. Clara Arnold. When it was accepted as both were present and said it was regular. The check was for S60 and MT. Arnold requested $50 in cash and the destruction of the I O U, thus balancing accounts. He was accom- modated and left town on the next train. Mrs. Arnold a little later stated to the management that she would like to have the check held two or three days as she feared she had over drawn her account. In the meantime she moved her baggage to private dpdEllltNlS on East NaSnlnRtOn street. on the plea of greater frugality The hotel people however were busy with the check and discovered yester- day that the woman had no money in the bank and never did have an ac- count there.
 A policeman was detailed to inquire into the case and the woman was To- cated, just as she was preparing 10 move her baggage somewhere. prob- ably to the depot She was taken be- fore Justice Johnstone and offered to give up what money she could spare. some s25 or $50. and let the hotel peo- pie take charge of her baggage until she could communicate with her hus- band and get the money necessary to settle in full. This arrangement was entered into as the only way in which she could evade arrest. and it was pointed out to her also that the inci- dent gave her no immunity from pun ishment for uttering a worthless check, if the bank should decide to push the case
