SICILY DESCRIBED
 AT WOMAN'S CLUB
Mrs. Pickrell Tells of Her Visit to the Devastated Country-Papers on the Great Composers.

Perhaps the feature of the program of the Woman's club yesterday after noon was the talk on Sicily by Mrs. William s. Pickrell. Mrs. Pickrell told if her impressions of that country be- fore the earthquake. Just one year ago she spent some time in Messina and neighboring cities. She described the country as one of the most beau tiful she ever visited.
 Mrs. J. C. Hurley gave a talk on Sicily After the Earthquake"
 The remainder of the time was de- voted to a discussion of three com posers. with illustrative music by each of them Mrs. C. w Hunter read short paper on Joseph Haydn, and Mrs. Arthur Hulett sang My Mother Bids Me Bind My Hair," from that composer.
 Mrs. Louise Dysart gave a resume of the life and works of Felix Men Gelssohn- -Bartholdy. She then sang the Hunting Song of Mendelssohn, which was followed by the Spring Song by Mrs. Hunter Mrs. Andrew Downing gave a six-minute talk on Frederic Chopin and Miss Fannie Peck played the 'Valse in A Flat"
 There was quite a large attendance. as the program was unusually inter esting. The numbers were short and the program varied.

as much as may be appropriated to carry the law into effect.
 We do not believe that the tax payers want fat but useless jobs created, for, E.s every intelligent mem Der of the legislature knows, any commission that would be created would be powerless to affect rates or to collect any information which the roads would not willingly divulge to board of trade, an association of shippers and merchants or to an in dividual shipper. It is plain that the legislature can delegate to no body power already solely invested by the federal laws with the interstate commerce commission.
 Such territorial commission might be made up of honest and capable men. It would still be pow erless. It might develop that it's members were mountebanks. dema- gogues or grafters and then it would be worse than useless. Demagogues grafters and mountebanks would nat urally be the earliest and most active candidates for appointment.
 It is admitted, we believe, that the commission could do nothing but present complaints to the interstate commerce commission. Could the commission do that better than a private shipper or a board of trade? Would not the latter, a legitimate organization, command greater re- spect than a commission which would be a monument to the folly of the legislature which created it? A re- flection upon the intelligence of the territory?
 This is our main objection to territorial railway commission which, now that statehood is pending, might raise a reasonable doubt of our cap ability of governing ourselves. Our objection on account of the useless expenditure F of $15,OOO a year is a minor one. The loss of that sum would hardly be felt by the tax payers.
 We have already done enough fool ish things within the last month to make more difficult ou admission to statehood. The memorial in rela- tion to the agreement of the reclama- tion service with the Pacific Gas and Electric company, attacking a con- tract with which four-fifths of the members of the legislature were not familiar, and which had the approval of the reclamation service, the at torneys of the Water Users associa- tion, the interior department and its legal advisers, must have given the senate the impression that something was the matter with Arizona
 The Republican has no interest in any corporation. Its interest is bound up entirely with those of Arizona, with those of the merchants and farmers and laboring men of the Salt River valley. Those interests cannot be served by a reputation for doing useless and foolish things.

A POSITIVE CURE
FOR INDIGESTION

If you have indigestion, your food

this leads to an impoverished condi-

bad breath, which disgusts your

And all this trouble is caused by the
food tina doesn't digest, but ferments
and oftimes rots in the stomach.
And fermentation is caused by the
stomach not being strong enough ana
energetic enough to thoroughly mix
the food with the digestive juices.

Mr.. Bennett declared tina his col
league did not do the president exact
justice in stating that the meaning of
his words was that the majority of
the house was controlled by motives
which were or which might be cor
rupt.
In further defense Of the secret SER
vice Mr.. Bennett declared that the
presidents recommendations should
be carefully considered before the
provision criticised was r~e-cnacted.
Mr. Bennett admonished the house that
any action ON the resolution would
be on the responsibility CT the repuh
leans.
He recalled some of the remarks
directed at the president by the mem
bcrs of the house at its sessions and
says they should be taken into ac-
count before administering the rebuke
to the executive.
Are we not rather declining to re-
ccive a rebuke from the president"
inquired Mr.. Williams (MississippD
with emphasis. land are we not deny.
ing his official right to scold the rep

MIR. Bennett onIy retort was that
his inquisitor could find his answer
in the newspapers tomorrow.
Representative Weeks, a member of
the Perkins committee, agreed With
what his colleageu said. He quoted
the presidents message to the senate
refusing to make replies TO certain
inquiries as a proof that the president
had no right to question the motives
of members.
Mr.. Townsend (Michigan) declared
that If the members were seeking to
preserve their regulations before the
country it could not be accomplished
by the resolution which he opposed.
The house was moved to great
laughter when Mi, Williams (Miss.)
got the floor and declared that should
the law authorizing the secret service
allowed to stand he would propose
amendment to it providing that
nothing in this law contained shall be
so construed as to prevent the prcsi-
lent of the United States from ap-
pointing a corps of secret service men,
exceeding 4S0 in number, the sole

STEEPLEIACK THRILLS CROWD

oren Dotson. a steeple jack. amused him
self and several hundred people on Farnam
street by performing a few Informal feats
on top Of the Flagstaff that surmounts
the HenshRw hotel.
He climbed up the flagstaff, which is
thirty feet or more above the roof on the
eighth story OF the building, and pro-
eeeded to divest himself Of coat, collar and
heoktie. which he threw down to the roof.
A crowd had begun to notice him and
seeing that his efforts were appreciated
he contAped. His necktie caught on one
OF the guy wires, 30 he climbed half way
and leaned out 70 kick Il off. Then
he went back up again, getting more and
more reckless and the crowd got larger
and more Interested. He tried several
times 10 stand on his head on the ball at
the top, but had to content with hangin
by his hands with his head down. He
hung for several seconds by one hand.
Then he took the top OF the pole in the
pit OF his stomach and spun around like
. very slow, but very airy teetotum.
Finally he slid down to the roof, walked
out on the Henshaw sign. sat down with
his feet dangling over the crowd eight
stories below. rolled a cigarette, and waved
his hand 90 the audience.
