PROGRESS OF WORK
 ON ARIZONA CANAL
Unceasinq Work of Excavator and Drcdger-A lengthening
 Boulevard.

The work of the excavator and the dredger in the enlarging of the Ari- gina canal is going along smoothly and satisfactorily. though little is heard about it. It is one of the less spectacular. but one of the biggest and most important. features of the local project and there is little to say except that they are still digging. The widening of the canal is to be done in two acts, as has been told before. or rather. two bites at the cherry. It has been found more prac- tical to take out half the proposed enlargement at one trip. then go over the ditch again for the second bite.
 As has also been printed before. road from the valley lands to Granite Reef is to be constructed along the canal border. high and dry. and where it can be easily kept in repair as well as be most useful in keeping the ca- nal in repair. This road is being completed in connection with the first bite at the cherry. About eight and a quarter miles of this road is now completed in two sections. and the same amount of canal has been half IlnlSflcu, or ll1lSutu On one sue I WO and a quarter miles of the completed road and widened canal are from Evergreen. two and d quarter miles west. to the point where the excava- tor is now slowly. but unceasingly. digging it's way toward Phoenix The rest of it is six-mfie stretch from Granite Reef down the canal toward Evergreen, to point where the dredger is plugging away in it's ef- forts to widen the ditch betuee the head and Evergreen. It will take many months yet to finish the widen ing, but every day sees a little larger canal capacity on it's upper reaches. and it all helps in a dry time.
 Concerning the new road along the bank of the canal. people are not suits their convenience. The upper end of it, particularly. is desirable to use by those going to Granite Reef. for after one reaches it it goes clear through to the head Warming is given. though. that drivers should not go clear up to the dam. but only to the canal suicing gates. d fraction of d mile this side. and then cross over the bridge across the canal. to the north side of the ditch If they continued on the south side clear to the head they would bump into the dam constructions and there would be no place to go except straight up.

HEARTY sEND-OFf FOR
 NEWLY WEODEO COUPLE
Miss Marie Camp and Lee J. Holz- wsrth Were Serenaded at the
 Train.

L. J. Holzwarth and Miss Marie retired physician on North Central avenue near the Indian school. were married at 5:30 o'clock yesterday aft ernoon at the home of the bride. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. MT. Camp of Atlanta, Ga. an uncle of the bride
 Immediately after the ceremony a luncheon was served to about fifty people and then the newly welded pair drove to the station and took the 7:30 train ostensibly for Los Angeles.
 The wedding was attended by a rather unusual celebration. The many friends of the bride and groom ser enaded the couple at the house with the assistance of the Indian school band under the direction of the band master. P. A. Venne. The couple then escaped to their carriage and were driven downtown. thinking they had escaped the rice throwing and more music. In this they were mis- taken.
 When the carriage appeared on Washington street the band and ser enaders were waiting for it and fol- lowed to the depot. At the train there was more rice throwing while here and there an old shoe-the emblem of good luck and best wishes-shot through the air. A bugle call imposed silence and then the band played all the sentimental songs in it's repertoire. The serenaders were thor oughly organized and did their best to express their felicitations. The com mittee was composed of Fred Bourne. John Dobson. A J. Taylor. Edward Santeo. Dr. D. w White. F. Snyder Don Goodwin and Sam Vaughn.
 Miss Camp has been resident of the valley about two years. Dr. Camp brought his family here from Georgia and retired from active practice brother of the bride, Herman Camp. and his wife were aso present and at tended the couple during the ceremony. Miss Camp has been a social favorite during her stay in Phoenix.
 MT. HolZwarth has been connected with the Indian school about two years and has lately been made discipline rian. He takes an active interest in the school athletics and is secretary of the Interscholastic Athletic association of Arizona. He is also an officer of the National Guard. He has made himself popular and well liked at the school.
 Among the guests at the wedding were Superintendent and Mrs. Good win of the Indian school as well as nearly all of the teachers at the school There were also MT. and Mrs. Fred Snyder, Mir. and Mrs. Owsley. Mir and Mrs. R. Lewis. MT. and Mrs J. A More. the Misses Monroe. White, Vor- um. Hendrickson. Smith, Phelps. Fow- Ter. Gould. Rydenour. and others.

MAKING THINGS EASY.

From Philadelphia comes the an- nouncement that the multiplication ta- ble is to be reformed in order to make it easy to learn. Children find it diff ficult to commit to memory the fact that twelve times twelve are LA, and so they are to be relieved of that bur den It is difficult part of the old ta- ble. and. according to modern. stand ards. it is better to remove the diff culties than to surmount them.
 Thus it is all the way through. Whatever is hard for them to do must be avoided in training children for the battle of life. They must not be com pelled to work, because the perform ance of enforced tasks deprives them of opportunities for play and takes the joys of likeness out of child life. Education is a bitter pill and hence if must be sugar-Coated and given to the children. so far as may be possi- ble. without their knowing it Why not then reform the multiplication table, The alphabet and the spelling books we're long ago consigned to the limbo If things obsolete; and now let the difficult parts if not the whole of the nultiplication table follow in their train
 What a lot of nonsense there is in
 any of the educational reforms of the Cay. notabiv the demand that children
 'all be taught a smattering of twenty
 h'nGs they do not need instead of be-
 7 compelled to learn thoroughly, a -ow things which it is essential for nom to know, But worst of all is .he notion that it is cruel to make them liS and delve for knowledge The old doctrine that there is no excellence without great labor is to he proved un- sound. and on "flowery beds of ease" ',le coming generation is to he lifted io the seventh heaven of educational bliss without even knowing how the ascent was made. What lot of "rno!lycoddles" the men of that gener- ation would be if the sugar-coated edu- cation of some of the schools were the only education received-not real worker, not a genuine fighter. not single conqueror among them all.
 Character building, of certain kind there will be plenty of character building. but not the kind which causes pain or tears or anything else that is disagreeable. Hard work used to be considered great factor in character building: but boys do not like hard work. and so it must be eliminated. Children must be permitted to grow up with the notion that work is a great evil to be avoided and ability to live in idleness the most worthy ob- ject of any mans ambition.
 Of course no educational reformer will admit that this is the purpose in sugar coating the educational pill: but whether he admit it or not. it is what may be looked for from the mammals darling method of conduct ing the schools and incidentally. of training boys to be of no account in the real battle of life.-Denver Re publican.

HOW ANDREW JOHNSON
 LEARNED TO READ.

Tn Harper's for January are pub lished some personal recollections of Andrew Johnson which give a new and most interesting account of this uniquely remarkable man. who rose in few years from tailors bench to the presidency. His pride in hay ing been a tailor and his free admis- sion of illiteracy are particularly in teresting
 About year before the Civil war Judge Pepper. who had been d black smith before he became a lawyer sent Johnson a set of fire-irons. which h. had made himself. says the writer, of the recollections. and the governcr presently sent the judge a coat whicr he had made for him. When he tol, my mother of the incident she said
 Did you really make the coat. gov ernor?"
 'I put some stitches in it, he said Pepper shouldn't get ahead of m. with the people. When I was a taiIo. l was a good one"
 He refused an invitation once to dine with A. V. Brown. leader o. the Democratic party in Tennssee and afterward Buchanan's postmaster gen eral. although all of the guests wero to be fellow democrats. and let then know that on that day he had dined with his washer woman. off bacon and cabbage.
 He made no secret of his unlcttered youth. and once brought my mother a magazine containing q sketch of his life. in which it was stated that his wife. Flora McCardle had taught him to read after they were married, when he was 21 years of age He said the statement was inaccurate. but sub stantially true: that when they were married his wife brought her school books to their new home. and his study of them aided his education materially. After he rose to promi- hence his admirers used to point out that he made few mistakes in gram mar and that his English was pure. but he never learned to divide his words correctly in writing. and some- times made ludicrous mistakes in Once in a public speech he spoke of the Lays of Ancient Rome as having been translated in Macaulay; and in another speech he quoted:

USUALLY ONE DOSE
 ENDS INDIGESTION
Heartburn, Gas, Dyspepsia and Head ache Vanish and Your Stomach
 Mill Feel Fine.

If your meals don't fit comfortably or you feel bloated after eating and you believe it is the food which fills you; if what little you eat lies like lump of lead on your stomach: if there is difficulty in breathing, after eating eructations of sour. undigested food and acid, heartburn, brash or belch- ing of gas, you can make up your mind that you need something to stop food fermentation and cure Indigestion.
 To make every bite of food you eat aid in the nourishment and strength of your body. you must rid your Stom- ach of Doisons. excessive acid and stomach gas which sours your entire meal-interferes with digestion and causes so many sufferers of Dyspepsia, Sick Headache, Biliousness. Constipa- tion. Griping. etc. Your case is no different-you are a stomach sufferer, though you may call it by some other name; your real and only trouble Is that which you eat does not digest. but quickly ferments and sours, pro- ducing almost any unhealthy condition
 A case of Papes Diapepsin will cost fifty cents at any Pharmacy here, and will convince any stomach sufferer five minutes after taking a single dose that Fermentation and Sour stomach is causing the misery of Indigestion.
 No matter if you call your trouble Catarrh of the Stomach, Nervousness or Gastritis, or by any other name always remember that certain cure IS waiting at any drugstore the moment you decide to begin it's use.
 Papes Diapepsin will regulate any out of order stomach within five min utes. and digest promptly. without any fuss or discomfort all of any kind of food -'ou eat.
