Booker T. Washington says that the
number of colored physicians in the
country is about $500, and that while
he would not argue that only colored
physicians should practice among the
colored people he believes fair minded
Americans will agree with him that the
race should have its due proportion of
professional men. The colored people
have shown genius for the art of nurs-
ing the sick. But it would not be well
to iEcite them to undertake the higher re-
sponsibility of practicing medicine with
out laying stress upon the necessity of
thorough education as a preparation. OF
dCctrs inadequately trained the country
already has a surplus that could well

The motor-boat has developed to a ship

\ MILITARY VISITOR
 AND WELCOME GUEST
THE ARRIVAL OF GEN. THOMAS
 AT PRESCOTT.
His Coming Connected With the En-
 Iareement at Fort Whipple

Prescott, Oct. 1s.-(Special)- eral Earl D. Thomas, commander Of the Department of the Colorado, ac- companied by his aide, Captain Gau- got. arrived in Prescott tonight for an offical inspection of Whipple barracks. General Thomas was met at Ash Fork by local officers from the fort and several citizens of Prescott. Upon his arrival he was taken to the Yavapai club, where an informal reception was held.
 Following so closely General Bells visit, there is much significance att tached to General Thomas coming at this time, especially so when it is known that in his annual report to the war department he recommended that the present barracks be enlarged to accommodate regiment of infan- try. This means an additional appro- priation of a half million dollars or more. and much to the city of Pres colt.
 General Thomas is on an official tour of inspection of all territorial posts, and after spending a few days here he will continue on souths

 0F EXPERT US. Treasurer Treats Advice
 on Banking Matters .FAV0Rs 4 CENTRAL BANK
Admitting Its Unpopular ity-He Opposes Sugges tion That Credit of Coun- ty Needs Bolstering of a Postal Savings Bank

Boston. Mass, Oct. 1s.-Making probably his last public appearance before retirement from the office of treasurer of the United States on No- vember l. Charles H. Treat of Wash ingtons tonight addressed the bank of ficials' association upon "A National Clearance House and the Bank and Currency Problem"
 He said, among other things:
 The lessons of the recent panic emphasized the importance of having more coordination among banks. This desire has taken shape more particu- lariy in the advocacy of great cen tral, or clearing house. bank, that would provide resources wherein banks could have adequate facilities for rediscounting their loans and thereby be afforded such banking ac- commodations as business requires. While I am an advocate of central bank or national clearance bank, I am still convinced that the people would not accept any currency that did not have the government guaran- ty behind it.
 "The extraordinary suggestion has been put out that in order to prevent further depreciation of the 2-per cent bonds. experimental legislation au- thorizing the establishment of a pos tai savings bank should he enacted, so that the money savings of the peo- pie might absorb the output of some seven hundred and thirty millions of two per cent bonds, and thereby safe guard the government credit. Mat ters would seem to have reached de- plorabIe condition if the government credit has to take such form"

The Distributive Rate Matter Goes
 Over Until Next Month.

San Francisco, Oct. 1S.-Sitting for the first time en banc in San Fran cisco, the Interstate Commerce com mission met here today to consider the rate cases in which the Pacific coast and the southwest are interest ed. Today's session was occupied by arguments in the San Francisco and Los Angeles switching cases, the tes- timony in which was taken some time ago by Commissioner Franklin K. Lane, at hearings held in this city and Los Angeles. In both these cities the railroads make switching charge for each car, and as no similar charge is collected in other cities, the shippers of the two coast points contend that the charge is unfair.
 Joseph Loeb supported the conten- tions of the Los Angeles shippers, and the grievances of the San Francisco merchants were presented by Seth Mann. The Southern Pacific was rep

THE HERO OF THE HOUR
Count de Lambert Broke Record For Time, Dis tance and Speed, Taking all of Them Into Account, In Spectacular Flight

Paris, Oct '1S.-COunt de Lambert, the French aeropIanist, just before dark tonight. accomplished one of the most remarkable and daring feats yet credited to heavier -than-air machines Starting from the aerodome at Juvisy. he flew to Paris, about thirteen miles. After maneuvering over the city at an average height of 400 feet, he ascend ed in gradually diminishing circles and passed several hundred feet above the Eiffel tower. He then returned to Juvisy.
 The thousands who watched Count de Lambert barely credited their senses when they saw the aeropIane, tiny object. gliding swiftly far above the tower. and the sensation created was more profound even than when Santos Dumonr circie6 shat structUge in his dirigible balloon in 1900.
 Count de Lambert was given tre- mendous ovation on his return to Juvisy. Orville Wright rushed for ward and wrung the hand of the avia- tor as he alighted, pale but radiant He was led to the pavilion, where his health was drunk. the crowd mean time cheering Justify and crying, Long live Count de Lamberti" Long live Russiai' De Lambert is of Russian extraction.
 The count held up his hand and shouted: Cry, Long live the United States,' for it is to her that l owe this success
 The aviator said the only incOn- venienee he suffered was from the throbbing of the engines. and from difficulty toward the end by the in- creasing gloom.
 The time of the flight was 4S min utes and 39 seconds, and the distance was estimated at 31 miles. and in height varied from 300 to 1900 feet. Count de Lambert and Wright left the field together in an automobile. Dragons were obliged to clear the way through the crowd of enthusiasts who showed a desire to carry the aviator in triumph on their shoulders.

HE'S NATURALLY SORE
 AGAINST GOVERNMENT
De Lara Arrested at Los Angeles for
 Saying So.

Los Angeles. Cal, Oct 1S.-Guiter- ras de Lara, was arrested here today for having made alleged statements derogatory to the governments of the United States and Mexico. First he got into trouble with the United States authorities in the fall of 1907 at the time of the arrest in Los Angeles of Ricardo Flores Magon. Antonio Vil- lareal and Librado Rivera, the Mexi- can liberal leaders now serving a term in the Arizona territorial prison at Yuma for an alleged violation of the United states neutrality laws.
 Shortly after the arrest of the three leaders, De Lara was arrested by the federal marshal at Los Angeles, the charge against him being that of steal ing eight cords of wood several years previous at Cananea, Mexico, while practicing law at that place. His at- torneys proved that the charge was farcical and after being held a pris- oner in the Los Angeles county jail for three months he was released.
 At the time of his imprisonment two years ago De Laras friends and sym pathizers asserted that his arrest and detention by the federal authorities was part of a systematic persecution of the Mexican liberals and their sym pathizers who had taken refuge in tho United States.
 De Lara comes of a famous Mexican family. His great grandfather fought under Hidalgo for the original inde- pendence of Mexico and was sent tC Washington as an official envoy dur ing the presidency of George Washing ] ton.

 AIR SCHOOL His Pupil Are Makeing Sads.
 factory HeadWay LAHM AND HUMPHREY
Can Handle the Machine Under the Eye of the
 Professor. The Aeroplane Brought Into Close Rela- tions With Express Train

College Park, Md. Oct 1S.-In six flights at the government aviation school under the direction of Instruc- tor Wright, Lieutenants Lahm and Humphrey demonstrated their ability to handle the government aeroplanes. purchased from the Wright brothers last summer for the signal corps. Each officer accompanied Wright on three flights.
 Before the sun had risen the aero plane was rolled from its shed and in what was virtually a dead calm, Wright and Lieutenant Humphrey made a flight of more than eleven minutes duration. The second flight, with Lieutenant Lahm in the pupils seat was the longest made at the signal corps aerodrome. lasting. for eighteen minutes and thirty-seven seconds. In both flights Wright per mitted the lieutenants to operate the machine unaided. The third flight was made in a slight breeze. Lieuten- ant Humphrey again accompanying Wright The machine was in the air over ten minutes Wright. accom- panied by Lieutenant Lahm then flew for eleven minutes and thirty-four seconds
 While the machine was encircling the field it was pitched and tossed by ten mile wind. In the evening Wright was accompanied on the first flight by Lieutenant Humphrey, who handled the machine unaided through a most devious course. On the last flight Wright had Lieutenant Lahm with him for more than eight min utes.
 As the machine sped around, Wright relinquished the control of the craft to his pupil While flying about with Lieutenant Lahm and Wright. the aeroplane came abreast of a swiftly moving express train. So close was the machine of the air to it's rival on earth that it appeared to be right above it. The disturb ance of the air created by the speed of the train seemed to affect the aeroplane which swept down danger ously close to the earth. As the wind caught it. and aided it onward, it seemed to gain upon the train.
 Longer flights and more difficult maneuvers are now to he attempted by the aviation class at the govern ment aerOdrOme.

 He will devote today to Phoenix and
 vicinity. it is supposed. as Mir. Hill
 says he will go to Mesa City this even
 ing. Whether it is proposed to take
 him to the Granite Reef dam Is not
 mentioned It would naturally be the
 desire of the settlers in this valley to
 have him see not only the Granite Reef dam, but as much as possible of the irrigated lands. but it must be remem bered that the irrigation project is only one of the avenues connecting the interior department with the peo- pie. There are also the land office. the surveyor generals office and the offices of the governor and secretary, all of which are directly subordinate [ % MT. Ballinger's department. And if | time should still hang heavily on his | hands there is the Indian service. the ! government Indian school and all the nearby reservations, also under one
 of the bureaus of the interior depart ment and in all of which he Is, of
 course. much concerned.
 Arrangements have been made to | have a good automobile and an expe- rienced chauffeur at Mesa City to- night. and it is planned that the par | ty shall leave Mesa City early, drive | to Roosevelt. inspect the storage proj- | ect and return tomorrow, Wednesday.

 Phoenix would like to welcome the
 secretary. not alone as befits one of | his personal attainments and his of i ficial station. but in manner that would impress him with the peoples | appreciation of the great things that are being done in their behalf by the l department under his charge. IL would appear from the program, how

 to be a business visit and not a i program of social functions.
