LUXURY IN OCEAN TRAVEL.
What Those Who Go Down to the
 Sea in Ships Have.

A first-class ocean steamer carries 5000 people, is almost motionless to the senses, reaches its foreign destination in five days, is fitted out magniicently, and for the cohven- fences and elegancies of life IS ike a floating Waldorf Astoria.
 Any passenger who is not content with a $500 suite of rooms can have a finer one for s2,000. In either of these ocean flats" he will find furni- ture and adornments of great beau ty, and such conyeniences as the tele- phone, the electric heater and the electric fan. If he has not brought his valets with him he can hire as many as he pleases for the voyage. He need no longer dread the long dinner table with its mixed society and provincial familiarity. There are many kinds of restaurants, Tn some of which s25 is often spent on a dinner for one person. And 1T he is too reserved for these he may dine with his family in his own nat.
 The table delicacies accessible 10 those who are able to pay for them are rarely equaled in any establish ment on shore. Fifty cooks exert themselves to satisfy the passengers taste. The wines and liquors are Of the best, and in order that the fish may be eaten with confidence tsey are shipped alive in the tank. AS the eating habits of some people are regulated by their religion, they Will be pleased to know that butchers and cooks of every religious persua- sion are provided, to guard the re- ligious susceptibilities of passengers.
 Among the conyeniences of civili- zation which can now be enjoyed at sea are the book store, the florist shop, the stenographer, the elevator, the safe deposit, the daily newspaper, containing not only the news of the ship and the voyage but wireless telegrams from every quarter of the globe, and the wireless telegraph office, from which telegrams may be dispatched to the home or business office that has heen left behind.
 If the passengers feel the need of exercise they can visit the gymnasi- um where, in addition to the usual apparatus, they can ride an electric horse or an electric camel, which for exhilarating effect can not be sur passed by the real thing. In the near future there will be tennis court and a swimming pool.
 The whim which objects to the presence of children Is respected, and childhood is banished to a sep arate department. so elegant, how ever, that the children like 1t. l. is customary to characterize any un- pleasant existence as a dogs ltc.' v but the ocean steamer has "hund- haus," where stylish dogs live on costly fare and receive obsequious attention at rate higher than is paid by some of the human passen- gers.-Chicago Record Herald.

THE INDEPENDENTS GAME.
Great Contest To-Morrow With the
 Champion CoIored Giants.

All those who attended the ball game last year between the Inde- pendents and the Colored Giants, must remember that contest as one of the best ever seen at Rockville. It was won by the Independents by the score of 1 to and proved to be a battle of the twirlers in which the local man won out. Tomorrow the colored team will be here again and another fast battle can be expected. It will be great sport, too, to watch the coaching of the colored chaps. Those fellows can play base ball, too, and the Independents will have to step some this year to pull down the victory. Waterbury will present her strongest lineup and the fans can rest assured that a good game will be the result.

DE LARA is FREED
IN LOS ANGELES

DOUGLAS, Jan. 1.-(Special.)-
L. Gutierrez de Lara, friend of the
Mexican revolutionists imprisoned in
Los Angeles, has been given his free
dom by Federal Judge Wellborn on
habeas corpus proceedings instituted
by his counsel, and Is once more the
humble assistant of Mrs. H. E. FL

The government officers do not re-

of the junta, or ViilareaI, formerly an
officer in President Diaz' bodyguard.
De Lara has committed several petty
offenses in Mexico, according to COM
plants filed against him, but none

to warrant extradition.

CRUDE FORGERY.

A very crude attempt at forgery was
quickly exposed yesterday when a rus
tic looking stranger was taken up by
the police in the Copper Queen store,
where he tried to palm on a check with
the misspelled name of J. H. Slaughter
at the bottom
The man gave his name as Bond
and said he had been in the country
only a few days. He says he sold a
horse to J. H Slaughter out at the
San Bernardino ranch and he had
given him that cneck. The name at the
bottom of the check was spelled J. Fl.
Slauter, and written very illegibly. Mr..
Smith, at the Copper Queen store, al
most laughed when he saw it, and told
him he couldn't pay out anything on
thar check. Even after the police had
taken the man to the police station
he still stuck to his story that it was
given him by a man at the San Ber-
nardino ranch and he described the
appearance of the man.
DR.. Green was called upon and took
the matter in hand He obtained a
warrant for Bonds arrest and is await
ing the return of Mr. Slaughter, who
is now up in the mountains and viii
not be home for several days.-Doug-

Who WILL GET
TERRITORIAL
AUTHORSHIP?
Is Question Among Ranks of
6. 0. P.-Understood That
Many Have Lightning Rods
Up In the Air.

PHOENIX. Jan. 11.-Who will sue,
coed John H. Page as auditor of Ari-
iona When Page succeeds w. F. Mich
OILS as secretary of Arizona and the
latter retires to private life?
WIN it be someone from a section
OF Arizona that needs to be tied more
firmly TO President Rooseyelt7
OF all the political questions that
have yet stirred the territory, the
identity of the new auditor is the
most discussed and at the same time
the most perplexing.
Some say it viii be Jim Bark. who
recently refused to be made adjutant
general Of the National Guard of Ari-
zona. and others say it Will not.
Bark was candidate for the place
when Governor Kibbey brought Page
down from Coconino county to give
him the place.
That he failed to land the plum
was somewhat OF a disappointment
and one of his friends said today that
ne would not take the. place now
Governor Kibbey has decided who
shall have tae job, and win shortly
make it known but the very fact that
he is delaying the announcement is
what causes so much interest in the
matter
Republicans who claim to be lead
ars. admit that the selection of the
new auditor comes at a time when it
is necessary 10 cement some of the
warning element of the party. espee-
tally some of the elements in the
southern part of the territory.
From a political standpoint the new
auditor should come from one Of the
southern counties and for that reason
the name of ]. F. Cleaveland, Gram
ANS member of the Upper House of
the last Legislature, and one of its
leaders, is looked upon as a possible
auditor.
It is said now that the new auditor
has BEEN acquainted with Kibbey for
several months; in fact ever since
Nichols said he would not be secre-
tary again and Page was promised
the place.
OF all the appointments to be made,
the naming of tae new auditor is the
most puzzling. Not even the proph-
cts. who always know everything,
have been venturesome enough to even
hazard a guess.
Unofficially. it was stated that the
public will not be kept in suspense
much longer and that before the mid
die of next week Governor Kibbey
viii let the public into the secret.
