SHRlNERS PREPARING
 10 SHR0NE AGAIN
Members of the Arab Patrol Are Sharpening Up Their Meat Axes, the Royal Camel is Having His Feet Manicured and An Artesian Well of Zeno Zem Has Been Found.

Fl Salamu Aleikum, Fl Toro in China shop! Fl Zaribah! Fl Jimminy Christmas, the Shriners are again on the warpath and sheckels are being shaken from the shrunken sheiBs. The treacherous trails to the temple are trodden by turbulent terrorists and there's to be a hog-illing time on the eighteenth day of the first month of Mcharrum. 1926. while the desert is dire and dusty. the date lacking two days of being a great many years since George Washington was born. It was not out of respect to his memory that the time honOred annual function of Fl Zaribah temple is made this year to anticipate the customary anniversary by two days. but in spite of it and only because the calendar as now or ganized fails to suit their purposes That is probably the reason they have a calendar of their own that can be made to fit any old occasion.
 The Shriner anniversary is such stupendOus session that it cannot be crowded into one day. for it takes a day and a night to properly tame the novitiates and after that comes the as SembIing of the Daughters of Isis and the ball to close the second night Whatever may be said of the Shriners the Daughters of Isis are all right and would not hold ceremonial session or give a ball on Sunday night. even if they knew they would go to jail for it, so they set the show forward two days in an effort to square themselves with the Daughters of Isis. Some of them will havt to do even more squar- ing than that before they will ever be permitted to attend another big ses- sion.
 Not all the talent in the world is found within the sacred precincts of the temple of the Mystic Shrine but tho best of it in every line is found there and available at all times when it is needed. For instance the recorder of the temple, J. J. Sweeney. who in daily life is a financier of much re- nown and who is also money chang CT in the temple. has a side line of lit erature in which he is equally as pro- ficient His latest publication is an eight-page folder recently issued for circulation more or less general but mainly among the elect It is a mast eTly effort at word carpenterins and a contribution to Contemporary litera- ture that possesses a unique individu- ality, a comprehensive exposition of facts that will be as Ineligible to the general reader a hundred thousand years from now as it is today. It is this characteristic that will make Ar Sweeney famous. A Shriner can absorb it's pol tential virtues and enjoy it's sinister apostroph4s. but a novitiate. or a com mon ordinary white man will know

THE BROKEN SCHEDULE
 OF MR. Ell SHAVtRS
The Train of Disaster Which Followed His Fancy to Take Duck Hunt

Because Eli Shavers, colored, and
 porter on the $. F. P. & F. had ar
 ranged to spend his day off in hunt | ing, his wife, Delijah Shavers and 1 Curtis Green will spend several days
 in the county jail and possibly some subsequent time at Yuma. Shavers came in with his car from the north yesterday morning. It had been his practice to remain with the car until seven o'clock in the morning, after the passengers had all risen, when he would go to his home on West Bu- Chanan street eat his breakfast and go to bed. He had followed this rou- tine so long that Mrs. Delijah felt that he could be relied upon.
 But yesterday morning Shavers wanted to take an early start after the ducks with which he had understood this valley was being overrun. He therefore arranged with another DOT ter to take the dog watch in the car, and before it had come to a full stop at the depot he was out of it and on his way home. He knocked at the side door as usual, and his wife asked who was there. He replied that it was Eli. MTS. DellJdn tolu ltiii lD gu lO Ille front door. The time he had to wait there for admittance made him sus- piciOus, and when he entered his bed room his suspicious were not allayed by the sight of a mans coat sleeve protruding from under the bed He pulled it out and asked Mrs. Delijah the meaning of it. She replied with assumed carelessness that MT. Seaton had given it to her. Eli pursued his search, now that his hunting blood was up, and came upon a pair of mems shoes. Did MT Seaton give you these?" he asked accusingly, "and these?" as he dragged out a pair of trouseps; "and these?' holding up a vest containing a watch. Mrs. Delijah was speeches..
 Eli pursued his quest through the house for the owner of the wardrobe, but he could not find him. and suppos ing that he had fled in the chill mOrn-
 ing air, Eli gathered up all these spells and came up town. He finally sue

In other words it is the only bomb proof secret manifesto that was ever publicly circulated and gen erally read. that gives nothing away except the dates and the fact that ev cry lamb who seeks the slaughter must furnish his own hide and be prepared to lose it.
 This publication is enlivened also by choice bits of verse. This is to please the romantic-and the ladies. The po- etry is all original, with somebody. and as no credits are given it has been laid at the door of MT. Sweeney Note this:
 Some foxy ones who never work
 Still make the greatest showing;
 The rooster never lays an egg,
 But still does all the growing.
 And then this touching little pas toral

 And "stucbed" them in her hose,

 And for those who like heavier read ing. philosophy. etc, there are many choice bits of wisdom. For instance:
 A tea-kettle can only sing when it is full of water but a Shriner-a gen uine Shriner-is no tea-kettle.
 The Shriners make a speciality of caring for the families of their mem- bers who are dead. either permanently or temporarily. This principle is set forth in connection with other instruc- tions to novitiates, in the following language: Don't be afraid to tell your wife that. you are going to join the shrine. We will send you back to her in good shape, or We will send a Shriner as good as you are, if not bet ter"
 It has been gathered that the busi- ness session of the shrine will convene at o'clock p m. on February 20 and at 1 o'clock the big procession will start. headed by the Arab patrol, an aggregation of bandits who are so fierce they are afraid of themselves. What will happen at night no man knows. not even those who have set the trap. The Daughters of Isis will begin their official vigil at ? o'clock the next afternoon, though many of them will probably sit up all the pre- cedfng night waiting for the old man. Eligibles to this sisterhood are wives. ,f Shriners. The latter two must be eighteen years old. though it has not been learned how old a Shriner's mother has to be, but presumably old enough to know better At 9 o'clock on the night of the 21st there will be a grand ball in honor of whoever can gain admission. But unless one knows a lot more about the Shriners than the writer of these lines, he had better not try to get in.

Deafness CannOt Be cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There Is only one way to cure deafness, and tlkt is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed con dition of the mucous lining of the Eus- tachian Tube. When this tube is in named you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing. and when it is en- tirely closed. Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed tor ever: nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an in famed condition of the mucous sur faces.

A little later a warrant was issued by Com missioner Johnstone for the arrest of Mrs. Delijah and Green. The woman was taken into custody first and along in the afternoon Green was found wearing the most damning evidence against himself in the shape of a pair of Elfs trousers. This affair will re- ceive further investigation today.

Three cars were consigned to Salter Bros. in oBston, part of the recent clip of MT. Hutchin- sons sheep. The sheepmen are hold ing out for better prices than it ap- pears the wool buyers are ready to of fer at this time.

So shouted the mob at Springfield, I'll.

with heinous crime-and now likely
to prove his innocence-had been spir-
tied away by the authorities.
"Justicer'
Vexing the heavens with raucous cry.

"Justicer'
Night and day, day and night, went
up the awful growl of the multitude,
appeasing for q moment its thirst for
blood by dragging an inoffensive man
Of eighty years from his peaceful home,
beating this white haired octogenarian
as if he were a mad dog Of the streets
and then gloating over his hanging
body.
Thus the Springfield mob, adame
with hatred of a race, drunk with
vengeance, riotous, insane.
But
Let us look behind this hateful face
of anarchy, foul with passion, lost to
human instinct, murderous, and find
some adequate cause for this outbreak
of a maddened people.
Surely there must be some final cause

into public conviction-else the terri
BILE spectacle is meaningless.
There was q cause.
For years the miscarriage of justice
In the courts had been countenanced by
sworn officials-for the sake of votes
For years the release of known crimi-
nails on technical or political terms had
been winked at by those who were set
for law enforcement.
Public sentiment had piled up be-
hind the dam until the barriers gave
way and the food put to scorn the
puny arms that tried to stop it!
"Justice!'
The eternal years of God are hers.
Somehow, somewhere, some time, her
verdict must be put on record-if by
no other means, then by the mob.

Voice Of the People
FROM THE RAILROAD BOYS.

Editor, TIMES: A bunch of US rail-
road boys over on the j. H. got to-
gether last night and decided that the
only reason some men vote the demo-
cratic ticket is that their great-great-
grandfather was a democrat. and some
will vote the ticket this year because
their wives think Bryan is better
looking man than Taft.
When Taft gets elected prosperity
will come. For he is a laboring mans
friend and their defender If Bryan is
elected things viii be on the bum. In
place of earning dollars you would get
cents. Taft is man. honest in his
dealings. Bryan and his mule are a
picture of hard luck. A man would not
get enough wages to pay for his chuck
Working on the section. 80 cents a day.
That would be laboring mans pay.
