 DRIVER IS UNHURT ], H. Branch, Gardener Mar rowiy Escapes Death From
 Passenger Train,

J. H- Branch, a Mormon who lives ia the valley and peddles vegetables had a narrow escape from death yes terday afternoon.

WILL SELECT
 TEACHERS FOR
 COMING YEAR
Board of Trustees Meet This Afternoon-All But Two of Present Corps Re-Apply- Commencement at Hand.

Arizona is a cosmopolitan territory. For some reason the people who come here are from all parts of the United States and the world. An in- stance of the truth of this statement is to be found in the widely different points from which applications for positions in the public schools Of the city for next year have come
 The applications number 235, and are From thirty-eight different states of the Union. One of the applicants is from Alaska, another from Mexico, third refers to his experience in the Philippines and fourth to the fact that he has taught in Nthe Transvaal in South Africa.
 The applications, with their recon mendations, have all beer sorted and this afternoon at o'clock the mem bers of the school board will go up against the task of wading through them. It is expected that this will take two days, and that it will be some time next week before the board will be ready to announce the teachers for next year.
 It is understood by the board that all teachers now employed who do not state that they will not apply for positions, are applicants. Under this. rule, all of the present teachers are applicants for their old positions with the exception of Miss Temple, of the Lowell school, and Mr. Milton, of the South Bisbee school Supt- Philbrook has not informed the board that he will not apply for his present position, and is an applicant
 In making selections the board oi trustees is governed by certain pre- cedents and rules, among which are that the applicant, to be successful, must be a graduate d state or ter ritorial university or normal; that preference will be given to thUse who are recommended by Bfsbee peo- pie, and that all graduates of the public schools wao have taken a nor nal or university course be given the preference. Under this precedent both the Misses Gibson, who are now attending the normal school at Flag staff, will be given positions in the schools here next year.

NEW YORK, April 39.-A shrink age q half the volume in, today's stock business from that of yesterday is significant of the abatement of de mand for stock.

Souvenir

SO cents

We have just received the first ship
ment of what we think will be the best
soc. seller of all the many moderate
priced Hawaiian Souvenirs. This is a
two-pocket Shield Purse, with hand
strap for women and plain for men.
The front shows the Hawaiian coat
of-arms with motto, the under flap an
American flag, the outer flap the word
Aloha" and the rear the Kameha-
meha statue, all in relief The leather
is strong, durable calf, natural color.
Besides being a handsome souvenir,
this purse will be much used locally,
its shape, utility and artistic finish all
combining to make it an ideal purse
for daily use.
