At the last diocesan convention a re-
port was presented from the special com
mittee charged with the consideration OF
the Bishop Of Washington's recommen-
dation in regard to the social and sani-
tary conditions of our city. The report
presented was quite lengthy, occupying
more than two large pages OF closely
printed matter. but yet not longer than
the Importance of the subject warranted,
1t dealt with all sorts of subjects; in fact,
there was nothing along its own lines
with which Il did not deal: Housing con
ditions. hygiene. sanitation. observance Of
law, order. and morality and like mat
tiers. especially in slums. alleys, and cheap
neighborhoods, Sunday observance ana
It's breach, domestic service problem. Gnu
ployment problem; provident and Joan
problems: industrial life insurance prob
lens. and the Ike.
The report contained several resolutions
which were adopted One OF them was
that the ATchdeaeon Of Washington
should forma central COMMITTEES 20
guide and stimulate investigation, record
tabulate, and circulate reports from
local committees, TO awaken and inhu-
ence public opinion. and to formulate and
influence legislation for the Improvement
Of social and sanitary conditions in Wash

Archdeacon Williams has been pretty
busy getting this central committee to-
gether, and so far with very considerable
success. This is as might have been ex-
pected. Laymen will work when they

might bring relief. All that par

To the officers and members
of Winslow Lodge No. $50.
Benevolent and Protective Or
der of Elks, Winslow, Arizona.
We your committee appointed
to draft resolutions pertaining
to the death of our brother L. E.
Divelbess, beg leave to submit
the following to wit:
WHEREAS; our beloved brother
L. E. Divelbess, has left us for
ever and passed to the great be-
yond, to that "Mysterlous realm
form whose bourne no traveller
ever returns" where no cares or
troubles shall ever arise.
Therefore be it resolved, that
in the death of our brother, Wins
low Lodge No. 53e, Benevolent
and Protective Order ofElks, has
lost a we'll beloved member, one
who was always anxious and
willing to do his best, to promote
the excellent objects of our orga-
nization, to minister to its wei
fare and the welfare of humanity
in general, and the whole COM
munity has lost an earnest up
right man and citizen, we loved
him well, for he was lovable, we
respect and revere his memory,
for his whole life commanded re-
spect and we mourn his loss, for
he has left an aching void in our
hearts, which shall ever remain
until those who knew him SO
well, shall have joined him in
that Glorious Hereafter.
"The faults of our brothers we
write upon the sand, their viz
tues upon the tablets OF love and
memory"
And be 1t further resolved, that
we extend our heartfelt sympathy
to the loved ones left behind and
that we stand ready to help them
bear the burden of loss, at the
same time reminding them, that
their loss, is his inestimable gain.
And be it further resolved, that
our charter and emblems be
draped in morning for a period
of sixty days, and that copy of
these resolutions be spread upon
our minutes, and that they be
published in the WINsLOW MAIL,

Monday was "Forefather's

elapsed since they landed on a

Republicans at the state cap
itol and in the legislature are
planning, so 'tis said, to enact
legislation placing the control of
the capitol building in the hands
of a commission, thus taking
from the governor the power to
select persons to look after the
marble pile. The control of the
capitol building has been in the
hands Of the governor for years
but the republicans never saw
anything wrong until Governor
johnson took the reins of gov
ernment. 1t evidently makes a
difference whose bull is gored.

A Crusade Organized In Texas -
Eradicate the Pest.
The alarming destruction of Texas
trees through the agency of the pol
sonous mistletoe has induced M. b.
Davis, secretary of the Texas Audu-
bon society, to sound warning to
those interested in trees to destroy
the mistletoe before it in turn denudes
the state of it's forests.
Every municipality in Texas is af.
flicted with the pest and it has been
stated by an authority that the life
Of tree when thoroughly inoculated
with mistletoe poison will terminate
in about seven years. says Mr.. Davis.
'It is carried from one tree to another
by certain birds feeding on the ber-
ries, and wherever it finds Judgement
On trees susceptible to its deadly para
sitic growth it's blight proves fatal in
time unless heroic treatment is ap-
piled. At this season while the ever
green parasite is clearly, discernible
upon the bare boughs the work should
be done.
"The Texas mistletoe (Phoradedron
fiavescens) differs materially from its
kindred parasite evergreen of Europe
(Viscum album) held In vensration by
the Druids, which is kept in check In
the Old World but cultivated to some
extent for winter decoration. The
variety In the cotton states is far
more pernicious, and must be wholly
exterminated or the trees will all per-
ish from it's baleful blight. Any one
may observe from car windows that
entire forests are being killed by mis-
tletoe.
"It is a beautiful but horrible para
site, and can only be destroyed finally
by cutting of the entire bough on
which its growth appears. The hack
berry, which is popular in the cities al

these poisonous parasites and in near

THE EXPERT SHOEMAKER.

Usually He Can Tell by Customers
Shoes Where the Customer Lives.
The expert shoemaker is in his way
a sort of Sherlock Holmes; he can
tell by looking at customers shoes
something about where the customer
lives, and this not by mud on the
shoes or the absence of it, or any such
commonplace evidence as that, but by
the manner in which the snoes SHOW
wear. But he is not infallible.
Here, for instance, is woman who
wears the soles of her shoes very thin
