certain buildings on the south
side Of the square. A score here,
a half score there, others below
them. They favored the shops

Committee of Ten; they were
the men who were to take pos
session of the rifles that lay hid
den behind counters and walls.
Here, there, everywhere, all about
the city, other instructed men
were waiting for the signal that
was to tell them to hustle deadly
firearms from the beds of green
laden market wagons. 1t was all
arranged with deadly precision.
There could be no blunder. The
Iron Count and his deputies had
seen to that.
Men were stationed in the
proper places to cut all telephone
and telegraph wires leading out
of the city. Others were desig-
mated to hold the gates against
lfugitives who might seek to reach

The Committee of Ten had said
that there would not be another

smiled to himself and let them
believe all that they preached in

that there would be another min

The twenty-sixth dawned bright
and cool after the savage storm
from the north. Brisk breezes
floated down from the mountain
peaks; an unreluctant sun smiled
his cheeriest from his seat behind
the hills. warmly awaiting the
hour when he could peep above
them for Q look into the gala
nest of humanity on the western
slope. Everywhere there was
activity, life. gladness and good
humor.
Gaudy decorations which had
been torn away by the storm were
cheerfully replaced; workmen
refurbished the public stands and
the Royal box in the Plaza; bands
paraded the avenues or gave con-
certs in Regengetz Circus; troops
of mounted soldiers and constab-
ulary patroled the streets. There
was nothing to indicate to the mu-
nicipality that the vilest conspir-
acy of the age-of any age-was
gripping it's tentacles about the
city of Edelweiss, the smiling,

In line with his policy of constantly improving the equipment and service Of his company in Phoenix. Manager R. M. Buchlcr of the Consolidated Telephone, Telegraph and Electric Company. has undertaken work which. when completed. will add very materially to the appearance of many of the downtown streets. at the same time insuring better and uninterrupted service. It will mean ultimately the clearing of practically all the down town streets of unSightly overhead telephone wires.
 Since the Hotel Adams was burned. work has been necessary and this was considered an opportune time to be- gin work long contemplated. All along Adams street are to be found numerous wires. but these will soon disappear and connections will be made by running through the alleys running at the rear or the stores and offices in this street The wires will be cut into block cables and not strung separately. In this manner there will be practically no inter- ruption in case of a storm and re- pairs win be reduced to the lowest possible minimum of cost.
 From the viewpoint of the public. this change. which will be completed in q few days and embracing all the territory between First street and First avenue. will mean the relieving of Adams street of a tangle of wires which were always an eyesore. and numbers of poles. which took up val uable space and gave an unsightly effect

POSSIBILITIES OF THE ELECTRIC
 FURNACE.

Considerable interest is being shown in scientific circles in the possibilities of the electric furnace in relation to the iron and steel industry. one au- thority has predicted that in the near future nearly all steel would he of special qualities containing an element of some of the rarer metals. Nearly all of these are now being manufactured in the electric furnaces. and before long it is confidently believed that every important steel works in the world will possess one of these modern inventions in order to cope with the constantly increasing demand for. spe- cial steel. When once. the railways have decided upon a new rail chemi
 cally and physically superior to those at present in use. the probabilities of the electric furnace will be immense
 Already the German state railways have issued specifications for electric steel rails to give greater physical tests and resistance to wear. with a guaranteed life of ten years. In evo- lutionary progress the electric furnace. it is said, will then be used for the higher and medium grades of steel castings in preference to the cruciblc method London Letter.

Greet Taft with Kisses.

Washington, April 14.-The Presi-
dent Of the United States, the first
Chief Executive Of the nation ever to
greet convention Of woman suf-
fragists, braved the danger to-day Of
facing an army Of women who want
the ballot, had the courage to confess
his opinion and was Kissed. So great
was the throng that sought admission
ed away.
President Taft was welcoming to
Washington the delegates to the con-
vention of the National American Wo-
man Suffrage Association. He Aad
frankly told them that he was not
altogether in sympathy with the suf-
fragc movement and was explaining
why he could not subscribe fully to
its principles. He said he thought
one Of the dangers in granting suf-
!rage TO women was that women as
whole were not interested in it and
that the power OF the ballot as far as
woman is concerned would be con-
trollcd by the LESS desirable class. 1"
When these words fell from the
Presidents lips the walls Of the con-
vention hall rc-cchoed a chorus Of
Kisses. 1t was no feeble demonstra-
ton Of protest. The combined
hiSscs sounded as if a valve on a
steam engine had broken.
