do not doubt that as the world goes

ity In the matter of marriage viii grow
up among Us. But it win not take the
false direction of ignoring these our
profoundest and holiest instincts. Mar
rage for money may 90. marriage for
rank may go, marriage for position
may go, but marriage for love, be
lieve and trust, viii last forever. Men
In the future will probably feel that a
union with their cousins or near rela-
tons is positively wicked; that a union
with those TOO like them in person or
disposition is at least undesirable; that
a union based upon considerations of
wealth or any other consideration save
considerations of immediate natural
impulse is base and disgraceful. Bat
to the end of time they win continue to
feel in spite of doctrinaires that the
voice of nature is better far than the
voice of the lord chancellor or the
royal society and that the instructive
desire for a particular helpmate is a
surer guide for the ultimate happiness
both of the race and of the individual
than any amount Of deliberate consul

Knew the Sound Of Woo.

There was an argument on a cricket
field in a village near Nottingham,
England, which interrupted the game
for some time. The match was being
played between the local tradesmen
of the village. All went well until
the bowler, who was the village con
stable, a man over six feet tall, sent a
ball which bumped up from the
ground and hit the village butcher,
who was batting and who was ex-
ceedingly fat and perspiring freely, on
the head The wicket keeper, a re-
markably thin and agile man, who
was the village grocer, caught the ball
and yelled, lows thatY'
"Hout..' shouted the village baker,
who possessed only one eye.
Hi say nowr' roared the fat butch
er, who refused to have it so. 'But
hit 1T me on the 'ead."
Hi don't know where hit 1T you,
responded the umpire, who was the
village undertaken, "but Hi knows the
sound of wood when Hi ears hit, so
bout you 60"

Washington, D. c., Dec. 15.-Based
upon the investigation by Boyd Con-
nors of the outrage committed a.
Brownsville by soldiers of the 18th
Infantry, President Roosevelt today
sent a special message to the senate
bearing upon the subject of the re-
instatement of members of the Pen
rose battalion in the army, in which
he recommends that those men who
originally held back information
showing the guilt of their comrades,
but who have since divulged the
truth, be reinstated in the army. The
message declares that the investiga-
ton shows that practically all of
Companies c and d had knowledge
OF the attack on the town, although
these men denied any such knowledge
at the time of the first investigations
of the affair Recommendation is
made by the message that the secre-
tary of war be empowered to rein
state within a year such of the dis
charged soldiers as he may find
worthy The report of the Boyd
Connors investigation is sent to the
senate with the message.

FIRST GAR OF CANTS
 SHIPPED YESTERDAY
The Season Opens Propitiously Except
 For Shortage CT Irrigation Water.

w. R. Johnston of Pittsburg, field manager for Crutchfield & Woolfolk, the commission merchants who are handling the crop for the Phoenix Can taloupe Growers Association, arrived here yesterday afternoon. He was de- layed a day by the wreck on the San ta Fe near Winslow but came into town with his coat off and his sleeves rolled up and will be a busy man at the packing sheds today. MT Cadwal- lader and son, field experts, who ar rived on Sunday. and MT. Hanna fill ing a similar capacity, are all here now and the business of cahtaloupe shipping is already under way.
 The first carload was billed out last night via the Santa Fe route Two carloads will be sent today and it is expected that the business will now be rushing one for while. If all goes well there will be lively times at the shipping shed for the next month or six weeks. The only worry of the cantaloupe men now is water. The vines are beginning to suffer and unless a better supply can be had soon the season is apt to be greatly shorten
 
 anywhere except to MT. Hard Luck. The growers are getting all the water that belongs to them, of the available supply but it is undeniable that they need more. How,ver they are optimis- tic and hopeful and even if the crop is short they appreciate that the eXperi- ence they will gain in their first ship ping season, and in the manner of cul- tiVation during strenuous circum- stances, will be money in their pockets in years to come, even if they do not make colossal fortunes this year. As one man expressed it, the dry weather demonstrates to the practical man the value of cultivation. It is only in a dry time that one can readily note the difference between patch that has been properly titled and one that has been cultivated with a riata," as it were.
 That however. will keep a lot of peo- pie moving for a while. The crates are at the orange packing house and the shipping shed is a block west of there on the railroad track. The can taloupes are graded and packed in the field, then brought to the shipping shed where they are inspected by the experts, passed upon and loaded. There will be a little crude work for a few days of course for most of the growers and pickers are inexperienced and pick some melons too green and others too ripe Considerable skill is required to do the thing just right but it is easily acquired and in a short time fl is eX- pected the culls and other cantaloupes unfit for shipping will give little trou ble. Those that are shipped will be of the finest possible quality as the valley melon proposes to maintain the reputation it now has or if possible make 1t better.
 After a day or two it is likely the work of packing and shipping will con tinue day and night during the busy part of the season.
