MOSQUITO CRUSADE
Time AGAIN RIPE
LAST YEARS SUCCESS SHOULD
BE REPEATED.
A Little Care on the Part of the PEG
pie of the Town Will Help Much.

1t is quite time the people Of Tempe
again considered the matter of a cru
SADIE against the dread mosquito. A
year ago when this matter was first
considered. many feared that it would
be without result and it was rather
difficult to persuade the people to take
a hand in it and do what they could.
The city finally took it up and en-
gagged the services of a man who made
the determination of the mosquito a
business. The results are highly graf
flying, as every one who spent last
summer here knows fully. Tempe
was in a position to boast with pride
that in addition to it's many other adj
vantages, it also enjoyed the distinc-
ton of being one of the few towns in
the country that could truthfully say.
it had no mosquitoes Of course, now
and then, few would make their ap-
pearance, but the contrast was so
marked to that of former years that
the people promptly began to take an
interest and assist as much as possible
in the extinction of the pests.
Last years experience demonstrated
beyond all question of a doubt that
with reasonable care and precautions.
the mosquito need not be. Property
owners and housekeepers can do a
good deal toward the satisfactory re-
suits of the campaign against the
pests this season, by beginning early.
All pools of water should be thorough
~ drained and water should not be al
lowed to stand in anything outside I'M
g4 i. a
vents to cesspools should be carefully
closed or screened and watering
troughs should be cleaned at least sew
eral times each week. A little care in
matters of this kind will have a won
derful effect and the results will be
well worth the effort

A LIVELY EXPERIENCE
WITH TEAM OF MULES
LED THEIR NEW OWNER A LONG
CHASE.
One of Them Had a Decided Inclina-
ton to Return to Phoenix.

H s. Schaulis had an entertaining
experience with a newly purchased
team of mules yesterday He went to
Phoenix in the morning and negotiated
for the animals and in the forenoon
started for Tempe with them riding
one and leading the other. He crossed
the river at the Center street crossing
and made the trip without incident to
within a couple of miles of home.
For the sake of comfort to himself
and to avoid possible chances of the
mule he was leading. getting away. he
had tied the rope to the horn of the
saddle The precaution, however,
proved to be his undoing for the mule
baked at a little bridge and in at
tempting to pull it across. the saddle
cinch gave way and Mr.. Schaulis was
thrown to the ground. The mule be-
ing naturally frightened at such a pro-
cedure, started down the road at a
rapid rate. His speed was increased
at each jump by the saddle striking it
on the heels. People the animal pass
ed on its way back TO Phoenix said
that all they could see was a streak
followed by a cloud of dust Mr..
Schaulis hurried on into town, riding
the remaining mule bareback, and Sc
curing a saddle horse started back aft
er the missing animal. After running
a few miles, the mule grew less fright
ened and Mr.. Schaulis eventually
caught up with it and came on home.
Barring a few skinned places. where
the saddle struck the mule. it was lit
tie the worse for the experience. The
team is a fine one and Mr.. Schaulis
made a good buy.

By Prompt Action Saves Three
Beings From Flames.

New York, Feb 1S.-A heroic act
took place at this city
Standing on the grating of a fire es-
cape, with four-story tenement burn
ing behind her. Mrs. Mary Colt, an
East Side mother, held a twin in each
arm and was unable to descend to
safety. A hysterical crowd OF men
and women looked up from the street
below expecting to seel all three perish
or perhaps the more terrible sight OF
the mother In a frenzy throwing her
children to the pavement A police
man, quick to realize the gravity OF
the situation, climbed up the fire es-
cape and stood on the grating one
floor below the woman and children.
Then in response to his cries, the
mother was persuaded to drop the lit.
tie ones one after the other, through
the opening in the first escape plat
form.
The little tots landed safely in the
poiiceman's arms. although they are
but three months old The mother was
then assisted down.

Reqular Senate Sessions.


Austin. Feb. lS-The senate unani
mously adopted the report OF investi-
eating committee on the Thomas
charges of violations of antl-lobby law.
The committee recommends that the
investigation be conducted at such
! time as will not interfere with the
regular sessions of the senate, and
that Senator Thomas be permitted to
select counsel.
The first row was precipitated when
the question OF the selection of steno-
grapher 10 report the proceedings
came up for consideration. Brachfield
moved that Miss J. G.. Nagle be ap-
pointed
Senator Thomas said he wanted
some one of his own selection who
would take down all proceedings. This
brought several senators their feet
Senator Sturgeon declared that he OBJ
jected to Thomas choosing his own
stenographer. TO do his bidding, but
wanted a stenographer who would
take down the proceedings of the com
mittee.
Finally Senator Terrell (of Bowie)
offered substitute that Miss Nagle be
appointed and that she be required
only TO take down proceedings of com
mittee. but cut out all speeches unless
on question OF procedure This was
adopted
Then sensation No was preclpi-
tated when Senator Veale. who is
member OF this committee, declared
he had to leave for his home in the
Panhandle and il would be impossible
for him to continue on the committee,
and he moved that his resignation be
accented. There was considerable talk
as TO who shall he his Successor
Thomas said in Justice to himself, tha
he should be named in place of Veale
on the committee. He was not ap-
pointed. Senator Terrell (of Bowie.
said that Senator Brachfield should
be appointed on the committee and so
moved Mr.. Brachfield did not care
to go on the committee, besides
Thomas objected to him. he said.
Brachfield said the committee itself
should select the other member. Sen
ator Greer, member of the committee
opposed this and thought the senate
should select the member.
At this point Senator Thomas said
he did not think it was any more use
for him to make any more objections;
that it was an outrage the way he is
being treated in this matter. He was
convinced by Senator Sturgeon that
1t was not he who was being tried, but
1t was the question of violation az anti
lobby law. that he (Thomas) was the
smallest part of the matter.
Brachfield also declared that he had
nothing against Thomas. and il the
senate insists he will go on the com.
mittee ard II they find any violations
Of anti-lobhy law that he will not only
report it to the senate. but to the
state courts.
Thomas withdrew his objections and
Brachfield was appointed. ]. H. Wag-
ner, was sppointed as the other steno-
grapher to take down the proceedings.
