with an estimate of cost. MT. Fitz- hugh is one of the most successful architects on the coast, having many fine structures to his credit, among them the Pacific Electric building in Los Angeles, the largest office building in the world, with twelve acres of floor space. Should he secure the prison contract he will move his family to Phoenix to reside during the period of construction.
 H. B. ST. CLAIRE HOME.-H. B. St. Claire has returned from a short business visit in Los Angeles and a side trip to San Diego. He says San Diego seems to be as prosperous as ever. notwithstanding the late strin- SGncy. which the people by the sea in sist never touched them. There was a cessation of work on the big business blocks for a while, but the residence district kept building up as usual. Though the money stringency has held back the building of the San Diego tS Yuma railroad. Mir. St. Claire says the San Diego people have no doubt that construction will begin very soon now. He met quite a number of former Phoenix people there, who seem to be prospering in business. Among them. X. J. Bradley. the undertaken and Masten & Kendall, real estate. He did not see Hi EIdfed, but got line on him from others. MT. Eldred is going in pretty strong on San Diego realty and believes it is easier money than hog stealing.
 A NEW PITCHER.-When the Ma rooms and the WoodchOppers contest Sunday afternoon at Eastlake park. a new factor will appear on the scene. The latest acquisition to the baseball lists of Phoenix, is A w. Richardson, who has been more or less associated

with college athletics for several years, and was formerly located in Oklahoma. He is twirler and will do duty for the WOodman team at least part of the game Vermuelen will probably pitch part of the game and the new man be given a chance to show his goods the rest of the time. The MarOons will come on the diamond pretty chesty, and with considerable practice and the WOodchoppers will have no easy task in taking the long end of the score. Magoffin is ill and may not be able to wear the mask, but Congo will make good behind the bat in any event. Gri- jalva will pitch for the MeXicans.
 LEAVING PHOENlX.-F. D. Zim- merman who has been employed with the McNeil company, will leave Phoe- nix in a few days for Denver. where he will probably be located permanently. As he has had charge of the WOodman initiation team, Earl Hill has been elected to take the position of chief forester

try. in the first two years after their
arrival lived almost entirely upon fish,
which they caught in their fran nets.
To what extent the wonderful intellect
that is shown by their descendants is
due to these two years Of almost eX-
elusive fish diet, i must leave 20 you
men Of science to determine. New Eng
land, during the early colonial period,
had almost no manufactures. and prac-
tically its only exports were lumber and
dried fish. Fish. when sailed or cured,
even IN those days, seemed 10 excite
thirst, and perhaps II was for that
reason that their vessels that carried
the FISH 10 the West Indies, brought
back in exchange q liberal supply OF
rum, mOlasses, and sugar To what eN-
tent this liberal supply of rum, IN the
early history Of New England, has con-
tributed TO the prohibition movement
that has recently developed into such
an important political issue, know not
but they surely can say. historically
speaking. Lord. we have had our MI
Extends Welcome.
IN conclusion, gentlemen. permit me
TO add that there is no greater evi-
dence Of the enlightened modern spirit
and the bond that unites the nations
Of the world into one great brother
hood than these international con
crosses wherein the statesmen. the ed
uCators, he scientists, the scholars
and men of affairs come together q

happiness Of mankind I bespeak fOI

YOUNG TAFT LEADS
HIS CLASS AT YALE
Takes First HonorS in Schol-
arShip for His Two Col
lege Years.

Judge Taft is undoubtedly again wear
ing the big, broad smu. that denotes his
absolute happiness in something. and this
time it is the fact that his eldest son.
Robert AIphonse Taft, has led his class
at Yale.
Just o few days before he was nomi-
mated for the Presidency by the Re
publican convention at Chicago. Judge
TAFT received news that his daughter,
Miss Helen Taft, had been awarded the
highest prize in the gift OF Bryn Mawr
for entrance examinations from the
preparatory schOol-the Pennsylvania
prize OF $500, When Judge Taft learned
that Miss Helen had passed highest in
her class, he smiled delightedIy. and
said Il would rather hear that than
be President OF the United States"
The fact mat Robert Taft has taken
first honors IN his class Of 500 mem bers
for his first two years IN college IS a
notable event in the family Of the Re-
publican nominee as well as at Yale.
Although young Taft has two members
Of the football team as rOom-mates, ne
declares he viii not take an active part
g.. .thletics, but viii devote all his ener-
gies toward maintaining a record for
scholarship. The associates whom
young Taft has selected for rOOm-mates
this year are Henry Payne Bingham,
OF Cleveland. and Adrian IAN Sinderen
OF Brooklyn.
