A meeting win be called early next

well here. The same plan was tried
with great success in Lansing, Mich
igan, where | was superintendent Of
schools for several years. In One
years work there was wonderful
transformation in the yards all
through the city. The children take
the seeds to their homes and plant
them and flower gardens and lawns
soon beautify nearly every home in
the city. But the identifying Of the
city is not the only thing that is ac-
complished. Children naturally love
flowers and when once they began 70
take an active interest in flower cuI-
ture, it becomes an important Fart
of their early education. They seem
to assimilate the purity and beauty

CRAZY JAPANESE
Sent TO ASYLUM
Worked Insanity Dodge For
Free Meals Until 1t
Looked Real,
{ Phoenix Gazette.)


Joe Miyamoto. the mysterious Jap
who hal been attaching more or less
attention in Phoenix for the last three
or four months by his strange actions,
was late yesterday afternoon tried
and committed to the asylum for the
insane.
Joe blew into town one day last
summer and secured a job as dish
waIloper or something of the kind at
the Ford grill. He was fired after
two or three days, but seemed to have
formed an attachment for the place
and kept on hanging around. When
he could no longer get his meals
there he began to work a new kind OF
graft at the other restaurants. He
would walk in. sit down at a table
and eat like any other man, but when
the time came for him to settle his
bill he was violently insane. He made
this scheme work a number of times,
but finally was arrested and tried for
insanity. The SeXamining physicians
could find nothing wrong with his
mentality and he was allowed to go,
only to begin working his old system
again. He was later taken in by the
police and set to work on the city
hall plaza. He worked pretty well foi'
| the greater part of a day and then
| took French leave of the authorities.
To find him was not difficult, and
| when he was placed in a cell he tished
some bits of charcoal from his pockets
| and began to draw pictures on the
wall. These pictures showed him to
be natural artist, but they did not
pay his fine.
When he was released from serving
a sentence of ten days on a charge OF
vagrancy he went back to the Ford
grill, and a few days ago Theodore
! Haffner swoTe out another insanity
complaint against him. 1t seems that
for several days past he has been get.
ting worse and worse. He would walk
about in a circle, talk in a peculiar
tone of voice to himself, and every
little while would make deep bow
to the sun
l. When he was brought into court
| yesterday he offered no explanation
for his conduct, but denied that he
was crazy. He remarked naively that
there are quite a number of people in
Phoenix who are more insane than he
is: The examining physicians agreed
with him that this might be SO, but
told Joe they considered him crazy
enough to be restrained for a time in
| the big house on the Tempe road.

ing to make at the Irrigation Con-
gress. The Board of Education would
very likely offer prize for the best
flowers given by the pupils and am
sure It would be an easy matter to Sc
cure several other prizes that would
stimulate interest In the work. We
are all in one way or another working
for prizes in this world and I think
that the children would take create
pains in caring for their plants If they
knew they had good chance OF Wit
ming some reward"
The date of the meeting viii be an
nounced later. Those who love flow.
ers, who are interested in the beau
flying of Albuquerque, and who have
ever had any experience III planting
and cultivating flowers, should be sure
to be present at this meeting. It will
be an open meeting and everyone is
cordially invited to come and offer
suggestions.
