THE SUCCESSFUL FLIGHT
 OF THE NEW JUNE BUG
The Only Trouble with the AeropIane
 Was Too Great Power

Hammondsport, N. r., June 25.-The aeroplane. Junebug. driven by G. H. Curtiss, made flight today of 725 yards in 41 seconds, maintaining a speed of 36,2 miles an hour for the dis tance The machine listed sharply to port shortly after getting air, but was righted immediately by means of the tip controls, and was kept on an even keel until the end of the flight.
 Its surfaces had been revarnished and made completely alright since the last trial This so increased the eff ciency of the apparatus that the motor developed too much power even with the spark fully retarded.
 Curtiss finally had to move his weight forward to aid the front con- trol and keep the machine from climb ing. Nevertheless. it reached a maxi mum height of forty feet. Owing to this difficulty. however, Curtiss de- cided to discontinue the flight. No dam age was sustained. This was the most encouraging flight yet accomplished by the new aeroplane.

rQUARTZSITE FLOAT WORTH CONSIDERING
It May Lead to a Pay Streak-lt Will
 Pay the Valley Farmers to Work.

l The Republican has received a let
 site district, congratuiating the paper on it's remarks concerning the need of a daily stage between Vicksburg, on
 the A. & c. railroad and Quartzsite, and setting out more forcibly than ever the reasons why Phoenix should take
 an interest in this matter as well as
 giving more reasons why a six days a week service at least should be fur
 nished the settlers in that section.
 He says the QuartZsite postoffice serves, as well as it's inadequate stage service can serve. section approxi-
 mately forty miles square. Not only does it carry the mail for many min ! ing camps in that region, but there is now quite a settlement of people on the Blythe estate, across the Colorado river. If there were a daily service to Quartzsite. these IGople would get their mail there in preference to the service they have at present, which is a tri- weekly automobile line to Glamoth sta tion. on the Southern Pacific. Inci- dentally, this introduces another phase ! of the situation. The Blythe estate owns a vast tract of agricultural iand on the west side of the Colorado, be- low Parker, and is engaged now in settling it up with farmers. At no dis tant day that community will have a goodly quantity of hay. grain, pump kins, watermelons, etc, to dispose of. The Republicans correspondent says 1t will be timely for Phoenix to look after this trade. Scratch the back of Quartz site little, and that mining settle ment will do its utmost to scratch back. Help Quartzsite land q little business from beyond the Colorado, and Phoenix will get the business of Quartzsite. Lay low and let the Blythe settlement poke off across the desert to the Southern Pacific after its mail, and the first thing anybody knows, Cal ifornia will not only be supplying the Blythe settlement, but it in turn will be pulling patronage from this side of the river and dishing fresh, sweet hay instead of some of the foxtail-al- falfa the Phoenix people have been dumping in Quartzsite.
 Western Arizona is a great mineral storehouse and valley market in the making. if propertly encouraged. Oth- erwise it will drag on the flag end of Arizona like an anchor to sail-boat, and all the Arizona towns will get will be the tax money. California is a good friend of Arizona, but not bit too good to rob her chicken coop If Ari- zona leaves the door open.

FAT Is AN DEFENSE

The female form being capable of expressing d supreme degree of grace, should be an inspiration in our daily lives and lead up to higher ideals of beauty" said the art lecturer. There fore the fat woman is an enemy to the artistic uplift, for she is entirely too heavy for any wings of fancy to raise.
 'I can't understand how any woman will remain fat when it is so easy tp reduce ones flesh. In the Latin quar- teF of Paris one never sees a gross figure Although the art models take things easy. sit around a great deal and eat just whatever they please. yet they keep their flesh firm and their figures beautiful. They have a simple fat reducer that takes the place of starving and gymnastics. It consists of a teaspOonful after meals and at bedtime of this simple receipt: F ounce Marmola. F ounce Fluid EX- tract Cascara Aromatic. and 3lA ounces Syrup Simplex. That's all. Why don't fat. pudgy American women try that? It's harmless-nay. very good for them-and will. I understand. take off as much as pound of fat day. Any one with d little small change and a drug store handy can have a decent figure

trates how the old three R. method
 of education has been modified. That Chicago, so long considered prosaic and commercial should take a lead in per petuating the folk lore that Is classic and in teaching some knowledge of ant along with the three R's.'' is ar 1nIsi- esting commentary on this cOsmopol- itan city. Walters of foreign birth in
 tho restaurants of this city know more about music and art than most native born Americans do; laborers from Aus stria and Germany are familiar with those things which are a closed book to Americans. and the foreign born population of Chicago, it shou!d be re- mCmbered is over 600,00O. The Prangs of New York have for years urged the value of art Knowledge as a means to divert and stimulate the minds of peO- pie away from inevitable questions of their bread and butter wages. It re- mained for a western educator, Charles F. Mann. formerly president of the Illinois State Teachers association. to produce the book that was considered practical for publication by the Prane and marks the adoption of education of this kind.

SPEAKERS STRIKE
 Al BfARDSLEY
Their Demands for More Pay is Ae- ceded to by Company, and Work Will be Resumed.

| Because they were dissatisfied with
 the rate per head being paid for shear ing sheep at Camp BGrdsley, the thir- ty shearers yesterday morning wept out on a strike and came to Phoenix. The action caused considerable sur prise. as it had been understood that the men were well pleased with the conditions at the camp. The state ment that the strike was due to poor board furnished by the shearing com pany. for which the men were being charged $1 a day, was declared to be erroneous by those who came down from the camp yesterday.
 The men have been receiving : If cents per head for their work furnish ing their own shears, repairs, etc They demanded raise to 12 cents, which demand was met by the com paEy and the men will return to work Monday morning. Colin Campbell, the president, was disposed to be liberal with the men, considering that they are known to be the cleanest bunch of shcarers in the country. They had been making all the way from $12 to S20 per day under the old rate, the av- craze being about S14. The increase will mean about S2.50 more per day.
 If there was any fault in the board proposition it did not arise from any niggardliness on the part of the com pany, as Colin Campbell the president, had given instructions to buy the best in the market. There,were some yes terday who thought that the cook might be at fault in the matter. if there were any exceptions to be taken to the Good.
 It was stated also, that walking delegate or 'jawsnith" as he was call ed, had been at the bottom of the trouble, having been in the camp couple of days fixing things. COnsid- erable interest is attached to this strike. and many are wondering what effect if any. t will have on the other camps.
 There are yet about 25,O0O head of sheep to be sheared at Beardsley this season. There were however none on hand there yesterday, so that work would have been suspended till the arrival of more flOcks even had the strike not occurred. The camp will be in full operation Monday and no time will be lost.

! erable fiounces. they retire home in a rage and tell the family that they hate dances"
 And who can blame them?
 \ man who is one of the very best dancers it has ever been my pleasure to meet recently told me that he had given up going to dances, confessing that it gave him no pleasure. the req son being that everything seemed in a chaotic muddle. as most of the men knew nothing about it; and the girls were just as bad,
 So next time a girl starts bemOaning the badness of her partners. let her just pause a minute and think if she dances irreproachably herself. She will probably say she does well enough" Yes, well enough for those men who know nothing about it.
 But the men who can dance do not care about partners who can't
 It is. a tremendous pity that boys are not made to dance at school. They simply have a few lessons when they are "babies." then they go [" school, and consider dancing infra dig. until after they leave college. when they get asked out d good deal. and find them selves unable to enjoy what should be the greatest possible pleasure.
 If they would only be sensible and learn while they are young. they would save themselves d great deal of uncomfortableness" in later years. and their partners would be spared many agoniZing moments.
 On behalf of the few lucky men who are really good dancers I should like to beg girls to try and dance just little better. A girl always beams with satisfaction when she happens to get a good partner-but is that partner so happy? I am afraid not; and it is the girls own fault
 Don't be content to be just good enough; be as good as you an~for the sake of those partners who ap- preciate it
 Men hate dancing for two different reasons. Those who cant dance think

WHY MEN DO NOT DANCE.

Why do men hate dancing? Why is it that our brothers, uncles and male cousins shun dances as they would the plague?
 The strange fact is accounted for in one short WOrd-ignorance. They don't know what dancing really means They have the reputation of being bad dancers, and-a very big "and'-they strongly object to making fools of themselves.
 And in the last particular women entirely agree with them.
 Is there a more ludicrous sight than that of not. disheveled man blowing his disastrous course down ballroom. leaving havoc and destruction in his wake? For that kind of man could never dance Eailop correctly in his life. and when it comes to valsing- well, the antics of a whale in a-hip- bath could hardly be more absurd Yet if the same man had only pocket ed his pride and taken a few lessons. his progress would have been one long triumphant march.
 There is the case in the proverbial nutshell-if men were not so entirely ignorant of dancing of all sorts and kinds I venture to predict that they would not longer fly in terror at the mere mention of a ball: and hOstesses would not grow old and gray before their time owing to the everlasting dearth of dancing men.
 Yet this lack of knowledge is not universal; and at the risk of incur ring the wrath of the average dancing girl, dare to assert that the man who does really know how to dance is an. infinitely better dancer than the ma jority of girls he dances with.
 Most girls know how to dance-in a way.
 But most men do not know even the simplest steps; they go to a ball are lugged round by various enthusiastic young ladies, and. after treading on hundreds of toes and tearing innum-

A movement for cooperation between the railroads and the shippers of the country as the only way to solve the
 railroad problem had it's origin last week in the offer of Chicago shippers , to meet the railroads part way. In re- turn the railroads were told that they must cease thinking of their property as personal. private property and should refrain from doing things which affect the rights of shippers without conference with them. H. c. Barlow, the executive director of the Chicago Association of Commerce, who voiced
 these views on behalf Of the shippers did not stand on ceremony in telling officers of the western railroad sys- tems what they would have to do.
 If the railroads are to be saved from themselves he said. and if commerce and the railroads are to be saved from the mob, cooperation between the shippers and the railroads is necessary. The success of the railroads depends more upon commerce infinitely more, than the success Of the commerce de- bends upon the railroads. You cannot expect successfully to appeal to the country when you continually. from caprice or whim or desire to gain some advantage, and often without any ma
 teriaI increase in your revenues. dis rupt arrangements which have been in effect for years" This demand of the shippers is significant coming as it does on the heels of the American Railroad Associations report that rail-
 road equipment representing more than $450.000.00O of capital is now lying idle on account of the industrial depression.
