ThE TRIP 10 ROOSEVELT
 BECOMING THE THING
Interest in the Big Reservoir Project
 Becoming More Acute.

c. D. Doris and J. w. Doris and their families have just returned from very enjoyable trip to Roosevelt where they were shown all over the construction works. The number of visitors to the damsite is rapidly in creasing. The businessmen of the city are taking strangers there to give them an adequate idea of what is real ly in progress there for the best stories of all that has been written about it in the magazines and the newspapers but faintly portray the magnitude of the work.
 Ii is coming to be realized that there can be no more impressive advertise ment of the valley. One mistake that many visitors make is in thinking that the men in charge there do not like to be bothered with visitors, while the contrary is true. Several citizens have gone to Roosevelt and have avoided headquarters with the result that they learned little of the inside workings of the big enterprise
 There are gentlemen at the heads of the various departments whose busi ness it is to see that visitors are fully llAAOiL L4SN pA what 10 5OAAAS VII AiAu eAASI take great pleasure in doing so. So, that if any one comes away from Roosevelt with the feeling that some thing has been kept back from him il is his own fault.
 There is no more enjoyable trip out of Phoenix than the journey to the damsite. The road itself is a revela- tiOn to the customer who generally has seen little grand mountain scenery except from car windows and that is usually more or less blurred. One sit ting in an automobile or a carriage is brought very close to the grandest scenery on the continent between here and Roosevelt.

SUSPENSION OF A
 BISBEE INSTITUTION
First National Bank Closed Its Doors Yesterday Morning and Examiner is in Charge.

Very much to the surprise of Phoe- nix people il was learned yesterday afternoon that the First National Bank of Bisbee has closed it's doors and that H. B. Marshall. United States bank examiner. was in charge of the institution. Territorial Auditor John II. Page. who is also eX-officio exam finer of the territorial banking institu- tions, ever since the panic last fall, has been cooperating closely with the national bank comptroller and repre- sented that official in Globe during the trouble there. He has been in Bis bee several days with MT. Marshall who was inquiring into the affairs of the bank.
 After the suspension was announced MT. Page wired his office assistant here. \. w. Lautz, and to Attorney General F.. s. Clark. requesting them to go to Bisbee last night. The pre- sumption is that Mir. Lautz' services were desired by the examiners in help ing them to check over the banks af- fairs, while it was desirable to have the attorney general on the ground to advise with the auditor. in view of the fact that the territory has S25,162- O2 on deposit in that bank. There is no uneasiness however about the ter ritory's money, but it is proper for the attorney general to be aware of every step that is taken in the regulation of the banks affairs. The territorial money is secured by $25,O00 of United States bonds that are worth more than par. and by further surety com pany bond amounting to S15.000.
 The officials of the bank are w. J. Eddleman, president; NJ. Newman. vice president: John r. Gull, cashier The condition of the bank on February l4. as shown by the statement to the comptroller of the currency, and which are the latest figures available, was as fellows:
 Resources-Loans discounts and overdrafts, s136.0S9.14; U. S. bonds and premiums, $13O.0O0: securities etc, s20.T0S.33; real estate, furniture and fixtures. S36, ,950l2: cash and due from banks. s52O362s Total. $375,- 7S3.SS.

AVOID SECRET
 STOMACH REMEDIES
Because Most of Them Contain Dan. serous Ingredients, Which Pro-
 duce the Drug Habit.

Thousands of people, having dyspep- sia or stomach troubles in some form, continually dope" themselves with all sorts of secret tonics, drugs, pills, ca thartics, etc, which not only inflame and irritate the stomach and intes- tines, but in many cases cause the opium. morphine and cocaine habits.
 You have right and should demand to know what any medicine contains before you take it, unless it is put up or recommended by some reputable physician. Fakes and quacks will put most anything into their secret prep arations. to make you like their use less stuff so as to want more of It. until it makes you the victim of some drug habit. which will ruin your health in a short time
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are not a secret remedy, they do not contain injurious drugs. and they are recom- mended by thousands of physicians in the United States and Canada to their patients for dyspepsia, catarrh of the stomach, and all other stomach trou- bles resulting from improper digestion of food
 These wonderful tablets actually di- gest food because they contain the very elements that are required of a healthy stomach to properly digest food, thus acting as a substitute and giving the overworked organs a rest and chance to regain their former health, strength and vigOr.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets contain fruit and vegetable essences, the pure concentrated tincture of hydrastis, and golden seal. which tone up and strengthen the mucous coats of the stomach and increase the flow of gas- tric and other digestive juices; lac tose (extracted from milk); nux, to strengthen the nerves controlling the action of the stomach: bismuth, to ab- sorb gases and prevent fermentation, and pure aseptic pepsin (gov. test) of the highest digestive power All of these are scientifically incorporated in these tablets or lozenges and con- stitute a complete. natural, speedy cure for any stomach trouble.
 Stuarfs Dyspepsia Tablets are sold in large fifty-cent boxes, by all drug gists.

 A. W. Golpin. his son-in-law here, was applied to for information yes terday. but could give no enlighten- ment. IL was the first information he had had of MT Noble's whereabouts since q short time after he left here. except that Barry Gnldwater on re- turning from New York had reported that he saw Mir.

 Mir Galpin said his disappearance was as mysterious to him as to any body.

Galnin did not say The plan was to run the sheep this sum mer and let the Noble building under construction here drift along under the plans then arranged until fall when it was thought that his old and new sheep interests and the sale of the VantilburG blcOk would enable him to finish financing the big build- ing
 He has never communicated with any member Of the family since leav- ing here and soon after MT. Galpin heard he was in Fl Paso. He then began to fear that MT Noble was ov- ercome by worry and was wandering aimlessly about. The family has been patiently waiting to hear from him. thinking that he would shortly recover his spirits and communicate. There was no reason for his disappearance except worry, for there has been noth- ing in his business of an irregular na- ture that would subject him to per sonal ernbarrassmen but it was known that his business troubles weighed heavily. Mir. Galpin yester- day wrote the chief of police in New York. telling him the facts in the case and requesting him to do all he can to learn his fate.

TO CURE A COUGH OR COLD.
Doctors Prescription Checks an Acute
Cold In Day and Cures

The following formula is a never
failing remedy for coughs or colds:
Two ounces of glycerine, one-half
ounce of Concentrated Oil of pine,
one half pint of good whisky, mix and
shake thoroughly each time and use
in doses of teaspoonful to a table
spoonful every four hours.
This, If followed up. will cure any
cough that is durable or break up
an acute cold in "a hours. The In
gradients all can be gotten at any

Concentrated oil Of pine comes put
up for medicinal uses only in half ounce

light. Other oils Of pine are insoluble
and are likely to produce nausea and
cannot give the desired results.

THINGS GOOD TO REMEMBER.
Soda Crackers with Ralslns and Al
nonds-onlon In Gravy.

Dip any Of the crisp soda crackers
In milk, but do not permit them to be-
come too sodden. Brush with beaten
egg, sprinkle with sugar and spread
upon platter, on which there is room
enough to lie singly. Put in the oven,
let them brown slightly, and sprinkle
with minced raisins and almonds. Lay
two or three together and serve with
whipped cream.
All white meats gain in flavor from
delicate onion admixtupe with the
gravy The nion is to be grated and
put over the meat before it has just
finished roasting and then blended
by basting. In this way one avoids
the burnt onion slices, which some
times result from other methods, and
which have, in a way, caused the ad-
dition Of onion to be regarded with
disfavor.
The bits OF tongue and ham which
do not look well upon the table
should be saved and chopped UP to-
gether for meat pies. Spinach pre-
pared with a butter sauce Is mixed
with the fragments just before they
are put into the chopper. A little
tomato ketchup is an Improvement
The thickening should be either grated
bread or cracker crumbs. The usual
pie crust is best, with little niggard-
liness in the matter of shortening.
An old carpet dyed often looks as
good as new. If, therefore you have
carpet which is badly faded, but
otherwise in good repair, send It to be
dyed, and If you choose a nice color
you will be delighted when you get 1t

and "God bless the pony" was an
