Though it was not generally known at the time. Tempe had in it's midst for a short time Tuesday night d prominent man in the person of the postmaster general. Frank H. Hitch cock. MT. Hitchcock and party ar rived here from Globe.
 The other members of the party were not learned. It is understood that party of four machines left Globe Tuesday morning en route for Phoenix. They broke down one by one until finally there remained but the single machine; in this MT. Hitchcock continued on his way
 When Postmaster Mullen opened the office yesterday morning he discovered Mir Hitchcock's card under the door The postmaster general has made it rule to- visit every postoffice he could on his trip, and the Tempe office was thus favored, though it is to be regretted that he did not have the opportunity of seeing the interior of 1t.

Vegetable Compound has done for me during this trying period. Complete restoration to health means so much to me that for the sake of other suffer- ing women I am willing to make my trouble public so you may publish this letter" ."-MRs. CHAs. BARCLAY. RED. .Graniteville, Vt.
 No other medicine for woman's ills has received such widespread and un- qualified endorsement. No other med icine we know of has such record of cures of female ills as has Lydia E.. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
 For more than 30 years it has been curing female complaints such as inflammation, alteration, local weak nesses, fibroid tumors, Irregularities, periodic pains, backache, indigestion and nervous prostration, and it is unequalled for carrying women safely through the period of change of life. It costs but little to try Lydia E.. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and, as Mrs. Barclay says, it is worth moun- tains of gold to suffering women

They did this several times. but it was not until he had found D seat in the smoker that he gave the incident any thought.

which l have the honor to represent. promised statehood for New Mexico and Arizona and, so far as I am con to carry out that promise l want to say to you. however, that am not the whole show; there are many others to be considered. but you can count on our doing our best Good dbye"
 Thus spoke the president. w. II Taft. yesterday morning at the depot here to a gathering of south side citi- zens and school children. roughly esti mated in numbers between two and three thousand. So smoothly was the brief stop of the president at Tempe arranged that not a moments time was wasted. The stop was of not more than two or three minutes dura- tion and as the last sentences were spoken by the president the train easily gllded away, so that his hearty goodbye" was shouted from the dis tance. The crowd yelled good bye" in response and gave the yell 'Hurrah for Taft and statehood" It was all over in almost no time and the presi- dent of the United States had been in Tempe and was gone again.
 The presidents special was an nounced for 10:l5 and it was on time to the dot. Hours before that time people had been arriving in Tempe from all over the south side. There have been few occasions when more people have been in town at one time Half or three quarters of an hour be fore the arrival of the train. the stu dents of the schools arrived and took the spaces allotted to them on both sides of the track. It was worth the trouble to see the gathering of stu dents and children alone. even if Mir Taft was not to be present. II is hard to realize the number of pupils and students there are in Tempe until they are all seen together. The crowd was very orderly and there was little con fusion. Unfortunately as the train stopped those in the rear, SD anxious to catch a glimpse of MT Taft. crowded a little and shut out the view of many of the smaller children. Many of them were heartbruken over their failure to catch a glimpse of him.
 The different schools carried ban ners expressing the statehood senti- ment. and it is evident from Mir. Taft's remarks that the effort of the people to impress upon him the desire for statehood was not lost. The public school outdid itself and. in addition to banners. carried Billie Possum perched on the limb of a tree It was great and glorious occasion, and october l3 is date that will be long remembered by Tempe people
 Many went on to Phoenix on d spe- cial train folloWing that Of the Dresi- dent and returned on the later trains in the day. Several coach loads of Mesa school children stopped over here and then went on to Phoenix

 PROMISED To Do All He Could to Secure Statehood I'M NOT THE WHOLE SHOW'
Said Mir. Taft, "There are Many Others to be Con
 sidered But You Can Count on Our Doing Our Best" z N

I am very much obliged to you for coming out this somewhat warm morning to greet me. This is the first time along my journey that have come into a country where they still have federal jurisdiction. l find be- fore me an enthusiastic audience which. l presume, is quite willing to have that jurisdiction ended. l as sume that that desire does not arise from any hostility to the federal gov ernment, but that it comes from that spirit of courage and enterprise and independence that seeks a method of showing what you can do when sou are showed off from the shore and made to swim yourselves.

FLAG IN SALOON ILLEGAL IN
 ENGLAND.

Patrick O'Brien, speaking in the house of commons yesterday. drew the attention of Premier Asquith to the incident on the occasion of the recep- ton at Castlereagh. when the police ordered a local saloon keeper to re move the American flag. MT. O'Brien declared that this incident NXas regard ed in America as an insult to the flag, and he suggested that Ambassador Bryce be instructed to explain and apologize. In reply MT. Asquith in formed MT. O'Brien that the display of any flag in a liquor saloon was il- legal, and that the Union Jack had been ordered removed on a similar oc- casiOn. It was so obvious that no in suit to the American flag was in tended that the government had no in tention Of communicating with Wash ingtOn on the subject-Springfiel Re publican.

Soldiers Are There.

Lieutenant Colonel Eddy brought in the
First regiment on an early train from Chi
cago.
Colonel Sanborn and a detail had pre-
coded them. The khaki-clad guardians Of
the course carried their shelter tents end
blankets over their shoulders and before
midnight there were many who envied
them even this crude shelter. Tomorrow
the militiamen Will be detaIied in squads
along the entire course to keep It clear.
There we're campfires, other than those
of the national guardsmen tonight, for in
the various automobile camps the ma
chinists and drivers we're busy under FLAIR
ing torches putting the finishing touches
on their machines.
Practice this afternoon differed little
from that of the preceding days, save that
the time supposedly was taken with all Of
fetal formality. However, the timer found
the work too much for him and before
he had secured assistance, had made sew
eral errors, including omission OF the pas
sage of two different cars. AS nothing de-
pended on It, however, the p~redicament Of
the official" was taken jocularly. The
time varied from twenty-four to thirty
minutes in laps where no stops were made.
Engelbrecht, jacksonville and Miller aver
aged the minimum figure. The cars stood
up well under the test and tonight were
declared fit. Up to today 1t was expected
there would be eighteen cars in the race,
but the withdrawal of the Ford reduced
the number to seventeen. The Ford people
found 1t impossible to get their car here
in time. 1t is said, owing to unforeseen dif-
ficulties.

The Crown-Point-Low parkway is 236
miles in length, with long straightaways on
three sides. The fourth is irregular from
Crown Point to Cedar lake-about five
miles. AS the Indiana trophy race calls
for ten laps, the cars must travel 2S6 miles.
This is but sixty-one miles less than the
distance covered in the Vanderbilt race on
Long Island last year. The CODE cup race
on the Crown Point-Lowell route Satur-
day, the big event of the meet, is seventeen
laps, or 400 miles, which is 105 miles longer
than the Long Island route.
II will furnish one OF the severest tests
of automobile stability in the history of
motor car racing. In fact, it has been
stated by many drivers that the pilot who
best saves his car will win both races.
The course is In good condition. Better
! than a mile a minute has been made in
practice, and although there we're some
severe bumps, they were no more numerous
than is TO be expected in a race OF the
