Admiral Evans has quite knack Of
coming striking phrases. Recently he
was credited with saying that the fleet
in going to the Pacific would be ready
for either fight or frolic." 1t was
when he was starting for Cuban wa

war that he made the famous remark
to the effect that If he once got after
the dons he would make Spanish the
prevailing language in hades for the
ensuing ten years. Previous to the
sailing Of the fleet from Hampton
Roads all Japanese serving in any ca
pacity on any Of the ships were dis
charged. 1t Is a coincidence in this
connection that Admiral Evans him
self once had Japanese in his en-
ploy as servant. He once told
story about this worthy.

Much feeling has been caused In &C.
clesiastical quarters by the action. The
new mayor Is a son of Giuseppe and
Sarah Nathan, who befriended the
Italian patriot Mazzini in his struggles
for united Italy. This couple nursed
Mazzlni in sickness, and Giuseppe con-
stituted himself his secretary and
would have followed him into battle
or exile. The parents Of the present
mayor lived at one time in London,
and 1t was there that he was born.
Later they resided at Lugano. The
younger Nathan was educated at Ok
ford university and is a scholar of
versatile attainments. He speaks the
language Of Dante with an elegance
and precision that admit of no Roman
idioms. A few years ago he became
proprietor Of the Liberal organ, Do

of Rome an address on Mazzini and
his doctrine which attracted the atten-

called him in counsel d result. 1t is

PLANS FOR SEASON
 Al IRON SPRINGS
The Mountain Summer Town Being Prepared and Waterworks To Be ln- stalled.

Iron Springs will open this year about the first of June and an un- usually pleasant season is being look ed forward to by the many Phoe- nicians who will spend the heated term in the cool of the mountain re- sort. The storekeeper and manager will be on the grounds by the first of the month. the teamsters have gone up to prepare the place for the com ing of the summer residents. w. K. James of the outing club said yester- day from what he could learn he thought there would be a greater number of people at the springs this summer than any previous year.
 Among the new features which will contribute to the enjoyment of the advantages there offered, will. be the installation of a waterworks system the contract for which was let some time ago to the Arizona Mine Supply company at Prescott. A pump and an engine will be placed at the point in the canyon where the water is now taken and forced to the highest point to a reservoir. From here it will be distributed within easy access for the different groups of cottages and may either be piped into the houses or Ob- tained from the most convenient faucets. It will be so constructed that the pipes can be drained in the fan and freezing prevented.
 The store will this year be run by the club instead of on the plan which was formerly followed and there will be a very large stock comprising ev- everything practically that the cot tagers will need, so that very little if anything will need to be ordered. The usual social pastimes will be indulged in, and Mir. and Mrs. Frank Lloyd Stuchal who will pass the summer there will have charge of the music during the season. The same rate ar rangement as last year. five trips for SEQ will be in effect and the books may be obtained shortly. A number of families will make improvements in their cottages ond two or three are talking of building.
