Crowds gathered at every way sta
ton to greet the new countess, in spite
of a heavy rain. At each stop Countess
Gladys walked out upon the real vesti-
bule and cried, THANK you,'' in hun

AS the count and countess left the
train the Dowager Countess Irene came
forward from the station platform,
caught her son in her arms and kissed
him again and again. In her joy at
greeting o Lasblo his mother evil

moment, because she did not release
him from her embrace until he drew
the American countess forward and

Terrapin begin laying about the mid

days. The female terrapin scratches
a hole in the sand with her fore paws.
deposits her eggs, from thirteen to
nineteen, in it and then overs them
up and leaves the heat Of the sun on
the sand to hatch out the young terra
pins. They are not much bigger when
hatchel than a mans thumb nail and
are as soft as dough. They crawl
around pretty lively and begin to hun.

crabs, etc. The first summer they are
quite small, and about the first to the
middle Of November they go into their
winter quarters. These consist OF
some soft mudhole in the marsh OF
on the Bottom Of some stream. Here
they sleep until about the middle o
April or later, when they come out and
are of quite respectable size, say foul
inches in breadth. The next year they
are six inches and the third sever

while the terrapin slumbers in tho
mud that he acquires the peculiar

Soak Il sheet of note paper IL col!

Beer Capacity Of . Munich Porter.

An English family touring in Ba-
varia called ut the world famous Hof-
brauhaus, the pride Of Munich, writes
our correspondent. To the waitress
serving them the head Of the family
in a matter Of fact way simply held
up his five fingers. To the family's
astonishment, the waitress came back
with five quart pots filed to the brim
with beer. The visitors bravely strug-
gled with the beer, but managed to
dispose Of only about a quart between
them. Knowing that it would be con-
sidered an insult to leave beer, they
called a porter and ordered him to
finish it. In less time than it takes
to relate it the Bavarian accomplished
the task. Wiping his mustache. he
demanded sixpence for the Job" and,
having obtained the money, instantly
ordered and emptied yet another quart

THE PURSER'S JOKE.
Why Religious Services Were Not Held
on That Trip.

Why Religious Services Were Not Held
on That Trip.
On most Of the big ocean steamers Il
minister is usually found among the
passengers. and invariably he is called
upon on Sunday to conduct religious
service in the main dining saloon. Oc-
c~asionally the man Of the cloth seeks
the purser and asks If he may conduct
q service on the Sabbath. A case Of
this sort happened recently or one Of
the Red D steamers on the run from
New York to La Guayra. A young
minister who three days before the
steamer sailed had taken orders from
a seminary. and a day later a wife
asked the purser II he might conduct
religious service on the following day.
which was Sunday. The purser re-
piled that the dining saloon was at his
disposal and that the passengers
would be informed. AT what hour
shall the service begin?" asked the
young minister. The purser rubbed
his brow a moment and replied that
he could begin Mt mine bells" The
minister and his bride appeared in the
dining saloon at 8 o'clock In the morn
ing and waited four hours for the con
g%regation. which did not come. On
the following day he listened again for
mine BELLS" but heard them not.-New

No Buyers For Alberta Cattle.

1t is reported that at least so, 600
head of cattle in Alberta that were
ready for shipment were turned back
on the range for winter. The infor-
m nation furnishes an interesting in.
sight into some of the conditions
that have to be faced by settlers in
that country, many of them persons
who allowed themselves TO be persuad-
ed to move there from this side of the
line. They are learning that it is one
thing to raise cattle, and another to
get buyers, says the Spokesman
Review.
The Alberta ranchers were promised
early in the season that buyers would
be sent out to pick up their surplus
cattle. AS the end of the shipping
season approached no buyers appeared
the ranchers became anxious and i'm
Fortunate, and they were then inform
ed there was no money to buy with.
Many of them, it is said, were depend
ing on their prospective sales TO meet
liabilities and carry them through the
winter. Now they will have to do
considerable financing with friends or
with the banks.
The information does not come
through anyone who might be sus-
pected of a desire to ''knock'' the AL
berta country. The Winnipeg Free
Press is authority for the statements,
and they are simply referred to here
as illustrative of the fact that Alberta

FARMERS ENCOURAGED
 TO RAISE SUGAR BETS
An Enlishtenine Meeting on Satur- day Afternoon.

On Saturday afternoon last, R. P. Davie, president and general manager of the Southwestern Beet Sugar com pany, came oyer from Phoenix and was in attendance at the meeting held at the Mesa opera house at which Delegate Warehouse, who has just reached home from an inspec- tion trip. presided. The gathering was largely attended by those inter ested in the matter and particularly the farmers and ranchers in this vii cinity who are considering the sign ing up of contracts for the planting and culture of the sugar beet dur ing the coming year. Mir. Warehouse submitted his report Saturday which was very favorable to MT. Davie and his constituents, as on the investiga- tion trip Mir. Warehouse and the delegates from Phoenix and Tempe looked into the matter thoroughly from every side. and the statements they received concerning the heads of this industry at the factories in Colorado and Kansas were very en- couraging.
 The work of signing up contracts for the growing of the sugar beet will be taken up at an early date, and doubtless there will be consider able land in this particular section devoted to the industry.

THE RIGHTS 0F VOTERS
 IN ARIZONA ELECTIONS
A RULING RY JUDGE KENT AT THE REQUEST OF THE
 SUPERVISORS
An Important Decision That in All Cases Voter Must Have Resided in His Precinct For Thirty Days.

Before every election, people begin asking about voting, seeking informa tion on points that they thoroughly understood before but it has always turned out that even lawyers were frequently at sea as to the precise rights of the voter. The law itself is not quite clear in all respects so that voters will have to be guided to seme extent made by the rulings of Judge Kent in contest cases. The board of supervisors applied to him for a gen eTal ruling concerning many things about which there had been inquiry. The ruling was given any yesterday copies of it were mailed to all cleo ton inspectors. The ruling is as fol- lows:
 In order for a person to vote at the coming election he must, at the time of the election, possess the following qualifications:
 He must bo a male citizen ot the United States.
 He must me a resident of the terri tory for one year next, preceding the election.
 He must be a resident of the county 
 He must be resident of the pre- cinct in which he claims his vote for 30 days next preceding the election.
 His name must be enrolled on the great register of the county.
 Where a voter is on the great regis ter, and upon being questioned upon oath by the inspector. demonstrates that he has been a resident of the pre- cinct in which he seeks to vote. for period of thirty days prior to the elec- ton, and possesses the other qualifi- cations required. he is entitled 10 vote in such precinct. although his regis tration may have shown him to have been originally registered in another precinct.
 Where a voter has changed his resi- dence from one precinct to another within thirty days prior to the cleo ton, he loses his vote, since, under the law, he cannot vote in either pre- cinct
