BRITISH PRINCES.
Very Different From the King In Ex-
 emption From Laws.

emption From Lave
 So privileged Is the king of England In his exemption from any and every law that one would naturally expect his children might do pretty much as they like. But Englishmen have. al- ways been very jealous of royal per sonages. and the fact is that princes enjoy very few privileges indeed. A prince of the royal blood may be fined, like any ordinary mortal. if his motor car exceeds the legal limit of speed.
 The Prince of Wales cannot be sued personally for debt If the debt Is not paid the creditor may take out sum- mons, but he must summon the treas urer. not the prince. If the case goes against the treasurer the money Is paid out of the prince's assets.
 No child of the king who is under twenty-five can marry without the kings consent Supposing, however. prince over twenty-five desired to marry and the king refused his consent. then the prince could give notice of his in- tention to the privy council. After that he would have to restrain his patience for whole year. If during that time either the house of lords or the house of commons disapproved of the mar riage it could not take place. But if both houses of parliament were satis- fled the prince could marry the woman of his choice.
 A prince has not even the right to edu- cate his own children, for it was long ago laid down that the king has the care and education of his grandchil- dren while they are minors.-London Telegraph.

RAILROADS RAGING IN DIRECTION
 0F DOUGLAS
SOUTHERN PACIFIC OFFICIAL DE CI.ARES HIS ROAD WILL BE
 BUILT IN SIXTY DAYS
LARGE FORGE IS NOW AT WORK
MEXICO & COLORADO IS WORKING BOTH AT GLEASON AND
 SOUTHLAND

DOUGLAS, February l2.-A race to Douglas. That is the general impress sion that prevails at both Courtland and .Pearce as the present feeling between tho Southern Pacific and the Mexico and Colorado railroads.
 A high official of the Southern Pa. cife stated few days ago at Pearce that the Southern Pacific was going to build their road directly through. to Douglas and would build the branch line into Courtland after the main line had been completed and would have the line completed to Douglas in sixty days or very close to it.
 A newspaper representative visited Courtland, Gleason and Pearce yester- day and found business and railroad affairs moving along at a lively gate.
 A visit to Pcarce is enough to con, vince any Donbting Thomas" of the intention of the Southern Pacific to build right on through to Douglas as fast as men and mules can handle the dirt.
 A side track about half a mile long has been built and it is crowded with freight cars with supplies for the new road. A large amount of telegraph poles, railway spikes, ties and timbers are already on the ground.
 It was learned that there were three hundred mules and 900 men at work yesterday and about four miles of the grading had been completed.
 Three hundred more mules and one hundred more men arrived in Pearee on Friday and another camp was start cd two miles farther on down the valley and the new outfit was to start in to work today.
 From the direction fhc railroad is being built from Pearce there is no doubt that Douglas is the destination as it is not heading. directly for Court land at all but straight on down the valley.
 It is the endeavor of each railroad 10 get it's line built first so that the other road will have to do the crossing. 7 Courtland is real, typical, boom mining town in the making and it has every indication of becoming a city that will in time be as large as Bisbee is to- day. At present it is scattered along the valley for about two Riles and spreads over quite an. extent of tcrri4 tory, so that it keeps all the real cs- tate speculators guessing as to where the real town will finally be.
 At the entrance to the valley the Great Western Mining company has a townsite staked out and all ready to go on the market, but it has not been made public just when the lots will be for sale. This is undoubtedly the best location for a town but is further away from the shafts than any of the addi. tions that are being put on the market

Charged with Malfsasanca

Augustin Escudero, late Mexican con sul in Tucson, who succeeded Consul Elias, has struck hard pan and is now on trial before the Third circuit court in the City of Mexico, on charges det rimental to good citizenship. Before leaving this city some weeks ago, says the Star, he borrowed divers sums of money, some say to the extent of a thousand dollars. However that may be, the money he did borrow will not be paid by his government, and parties here have been so notified. It is more than probable that he will see inside of Belen penitentiary before he is through with his. shortcomings.

EATING TOO MUCH.
ovsrnutrition 10 Just as Harmful a
 MaInutrition.


 MaInutrition.
 It is an acknowledged fact that d. most every soul of us eats loo much. The digestive organs are constantly overtrained and finally weakened. When wisely followed, the practice of fasting can be most beneficial. An ex- pert on the food question has said that one should rise from the table with the feeling of hunger, which Is an ex- perience known to very few of us. On the contrary, the majority of peo- pie leave the board with sense of burden which only an hours siesta can alleviate. This is not so much owing to the fact that the food is un- commonly rich, for the rule of the simple life obtains now in the fash ionabIe cuisine. but it is the quantity taken. There is large community at the present moment which lasts from breakfast time till dinner at night. It Is a question If 1t is wise to leave the stomach entirely without food during all those hours. but there is no ques- tion that the lighter the lunch taken the better will be the health of the individual. By Tight lunch" in this instance is meant what most people would not call lunch at all-that is to say, few crackers with cheese ta much maIigned article of dieo. few nuts and n bit of fruit or cup of cocoa with dry toast. Such q feast" prevents the craving for food and in no way taxes the digestive or gans. Oyernutrition Is just as harm yful as malnutrition and is far more frequently the cause of maladies. With judicious fasting the system re- covers it's lost tone. and mental work CTS would find that the brain worked with surprising lightness, for the brain Is one of the chief sufferers from over eating.

Hon. A. J. Doran thinks that the leg islature should make an appropriation to print number of copies of Pat Hamilton resources of Arizona. It is very complete work which would be valuable with few more chapters added to bring it up to date. The late Pat Hamilton was resident of Pres colt and was man of far more than ordinary ability.

The recent reports that the
prosecution of the Standard Oil
Corporation was to be abandoned
by the Taft administration SEEM
ed hardly credible, and now comes
the denial of the rumor from
Washington. 1t seems that
there are a number of cases pend
ing against the Standard Oil
Company based upon the same
facts involved in the suit that has
been thrown out of court, and of
course to attempt to prosecute on
these same facts would be as
foolish as it would be useless. If
the Standard Oil Company is
still violating the laws, OBJ
viously the first step is to obtain
evidence sufficient to convict and
then bring the corporation into
court again but on a different
footing from that upon which it
stood when it won its victory.

The real war over the tariff be-

to obtain that during the general
debate on the Payne bill the Dem
ocrats and Republicans will di-
vide upon the old line of a pro-
tective tariff and a tariff for re-
venue only, the Democrats sup
porting the latter of course. We
hope the Democrats in Congress
will come out heartily for and
stand pat on the proposition that
it is not only necessary to in :
crease the revenues of the coun-
try by a revision of the sched-
ules, but that in order to wipe
out the Treasury deficit which
has grown so rapidly during the
last year it is equally necessary

itures of the country.

The President has the right to

and twenty at the Naval Academy
Annapolis, filling the vacancies
as they occur by reason of
graduation or discharge for de-
ficinecy. 1t has been the prac-
tice to confine these appointments
almost entirely to the sons of
army and navy officers, with the
result that much influence is
brought to bear on the White
House to obtain the few coveted
appointments each year. Mr..
Taft has under consideration
plans for making these appoint
ments after competitive tests, as
he believes it would be more fair
to the large number of candidates
whose applications are on file if
the selections were determined
by examination, limited to the
class hitherto recognized. This
plan would be an excellent
one a S i t would not only
relieve the President of the

ments, but would also remove,
in measure, the discomfort of
these who are necessarily left out.
