Grant Smith, circulation manager of The Republican, formerly in that capacity with the San Francisco Chronicle, returned last night from two weeks vacation, which he had been spending at the Los Angeles Elks' convention and in San Fran cisco. He reports San Francisco quiet and that Los Angeles is far ahead of it every way at the present time.
 In speaking last evening of the Elks' convention. which is still per missible of mention, being the great est convention of secret order in the history of the United States. MT. Smith stated:
 '-Time-say-that was the greatest event in the history of the west for Arizona-and did you say time? You ought to have been there. Money was no object The town was ours not any other state but the territory of Arizona. We arrived there over a thousand strong The first order to bring a band-and band-why, there wasn't another band like it. We made a hit from the start with our yell, won the town, and the other delega- tions. The Arizona yell was the by word of the convention. You should have seen the float. The day of the parade we waited two and one1half hours in front of the HollenbeCk. waiting for the start of the six-mile parade that took three hours to cover As we started off with our section the band ahead, from the top of the hotel, shower after shower of carnations was thrown upon us until we were walking on a bed of pOsies so thick that our feet wouldn't touch the pavement And that is typical of the way Arizona was treated And as we passed the re- viewing stand, with the band play ing Auld Lang Syne we certainly made the hit of the whole week.

CANALS ALL FULL
 SALT RIVER RISING
It May Not Last Long, but Present Blessings Are We'll Worth While.

It was not possible to fill all the canals with water yesterday morning but they were full last night and probably will be all day today. Yes terday the Arizona and the Maricopa were full on the regular run and the surplus in the cross-cut was turned into the Appropriators' The Mari Copa head is now turned into the ApprOpriators' and the Salt and the MariCopa canals. it is expected will be filled by water picked up at the joint head. The river conditions were more f!attering than ever yesterday. At Roosevelt the water plane raised another four-tcnths of a foot. which. added to the five-tenths of the day before, makes an added depth of nine tenths of a foot in the last two days. Of 10.S inches more going over the 5O-foot low place in the dam.
 There is no assurance of course that this flow will be long maintained, but there is no certainty that it will not be, and anyhow it is mighty good while it lasts.

THE SHATTERED FAITH
 OF MRS. RICHARDS
She is in Doubt as to Her Husbands First Name.

Mrs. May Richards is preparing to ask for a divorce from her husband. Jack Richards or Epiiriam Richards. she isn't sure which; she isn't even sure of the surname. Anyway, she would like a dissolution of the wed ding bonds for she could not enjoy the companionship of her husband within the next two and a half years, if she cared to do so. MT. Richards has an engagement with the territory which will keep him pretty steadily employed at Florence for that length of time He is doing time for burglary, having been convicted at the April term Of court.
 Mrs. Richards who was Miss May Peck, was married to Jack Richards, at Mesa, in January 1908. She knew nothing of his earlier life except what he told her during the brief courtship and she is of the opinion that her knowledge is not very accurate.
 About a year after the marriage he was caught in the act of burglarizing a store at Mesa and when he was ar raigned for that crime he said that his front name was Ephriam. This diver sity of statements has caused his wife to lose faith in him entirely Her faith has been shipwrecked The pa pers in the case will probably be filed within a day or two.

How to Reduce Fat
The Simplest and Surest Way to Get
 Rid of Fat Without Drugs.

How to Prove It to Yourself Free.
 There has become known a remedy for fat, the use of which has already resulted in enormous benefit, and most probably in the saving of many lives.
 This remedy is commonly called Rengo. The rate at which this rem edy will reduce fat, and do it harm lessly and surely, is truly remarkable. A pound a day is ordinarily the loss recorded, being done by compelling perfect assimilation of the food. and sending the nutriment where it be- longs.
 The most remarkable feature of Rengo is that you can take all you want of it without running the slight est risk of harm. It can be chewed like candy and is pleasant to the taste
 Many physicians, who before were at a loss to know how to cure obe- sity, are now prescribing Rengo with remarkable success. It is great ve-strength producer. affecting di- gestion primarily. and inducing a gen eral exhilaration of mind and body. Wrinkles which appear in nearly ev- cry case of reduction of fat where injurious drugs and starvation pro- cess is tried. do not occur where Rengo is used.
 There is nothing just as good" as Rengo. For sale by all druggists at s1OO per full sized box, or by mail prepaid. by The Rengo Co, 1864 Rem go Bldg, Detroit, Mich. The com pany will gladly send you a trial package free by mail if you write them direct to Detroit; no free pack ages at drug stores.
