this region of &c, 900 square miles, once in

THE influences which have caused

Children who had never seen grove
or forest of great trees were delighted
with the stories of Irving and of the

world was the broad expanse of prai-

western Kansas more than any other
cause that the children of 25 years ago,
now grown to manhood. are turning to
the practical work of Transforming a
prairie country into a land OF groves
and forests.
The growing of catalpa trees is to

FOR COMFORT
 AND HAPPINESS
Two Funds That Uncle Hiram Com mends to Nephew About to
 Be Married.

Every sane manufacturer and busi- ness man." said Uncle Hiram to one of his older young nephews about to be married, sets aside regularly sums sufficient to cover deterioration in his plant and the cost of renewals. but how many individual persons do this? Not many. Most of us live right up to our incomes. never thinking of the require ments coming on us in the future.
 Young people generally when they get married take the few hundred dol lars more or less that they saved and furnish their house or flat or wherever they're going to live. and then they look around and think how nice it looks. and then. they go ahead and spend all they earn. thinking that they're all right if they don't live beyond their income and they don't see any further than this till their things begin to wear out and they find they haven't any money to buy new.
 Marriage is happy state. but you may be sure that it's happiest when the business end of it is conducted on business principles. Just as soon as you get settled. my boy. start a sink ing fund and keep it up rigidly. If you find you have to deny yourselves something ts save the amount. deny yourselves and save the money. You are absolutely sure to need it. You know how long it takes carpets and things to wear out or if you don't your wife can tell you. Have the money ready for whatever you may want when you need it. Don't be compelled to go into debt for these things. Debt means distress for whatever house hold
 'The business man who didn't pro- vide for deterioration and renewals would soon % into bankruptcy. just the same exactly with the private indi- vidual. Start a sinking fund. my boy, right away, and keep it up rigidly; whatever else you do, do that; have the money ready when there's some thing you want to buy, and then lay aside a little more, that you can save; in other words, besides keeping up your sinking fund you want to start accommodating If you will just do these two things the day will come when you will thank your old uncle for telling you how to keep comfortable and hap py.-New York Sun.

GREAT AMERICAN DRAMA
 PRODUCED IN PHOENIX
''The Man of the Hcur," Played by a Clever Company, Pieases
 Fair Audience

Probably The Man of the Hour presented last evening at the Elks' theatre, comes as near being the great American drama" which play wrights have been trying for d cen tury to produce, as any that was ever written. The play itself is probably the best seen iH Phoenix during the present season and the company is composed of some very clever people.
 "'Phr Man of the Hour" is a drama not a farce. It deals with one llase of the graft agitation that las been stirring the country for several years. George Boad- hurst wrote it and while it is Sol what theatrical in places, as a whole it is a very clever piece of play writing There are plenty of lines which give the audience an oppor- tunity to applaud the noble hero.
 There is a love story mixed up In it. The mayor is in love with the niece of a political enemy and an occasion comes up in which he is compelled, by his conscience, to veto a franchise bill which the uncle and enemy is much interested in having pass. How he Vetoes the bill, eN- poses the grating crowd and wins the girl. against both the uncle and her fiance. is the story.
 Miss Virginia Irwin, who takes the part of Dallas Wainwright, with whom the mayor is in love, is q most beautiful woman and an actress of rare talent Her interpretation of the part is very true to real life. At no time does she rise tO great emotional heights but at all times acts just like woman of the Dallas Wainwright type would act under similar circumstances. Several of the supporting company. however, are inclined to strike melodramatic poses and deliver their lines in melo- dramatic fashion.
 The part of the mayor, Alwyn Bennett. is played by Mir. Harry English. who is probably as good a man as could be found for the role. lie is not among those who become melodramatic.
 A fairly large audience saw The Man of the Hour" and was well pleased. A few good, solid plays like this one, please.

CARSON THOUGHT HE
 COULD DO MARSHAL
Officer Finally Lands Him After
 Animated Tussle

William Carson parked up the wrong tree yesterday afternoon when he undertook to oppose Marshal Moore who had invited him to take up temporary quarters in the city jail. It wouldn't have mattered much to the officer if Carson had confined himself to oral objection but when he began using his fists. feet and teeth in a manner quite unDecoming D any good citizen, Marshal Moore thought it time to apply the nippers.
 Those familiar with nippers aver that they are not a comfortable bit of adOrnment at the best There are lots of toys out of which a man can secure more real enjoyment than from the steel chain encircling the wrist with an officer tugging at the other end. So energetic was Carson when he found one of his hands impeded that he proceeded tO engage the officer in a tussle in the course of which the nippers were broken. Finding himself unrestrain ed Carson attempted tO wade into the marshal and might have succeed ed had it not been for the officers watchfulness.
 Just when the two had taken a roll or two in the dust Moore came out on top and spoiled a swing to the jaw with bat over the head with his gun. There was a further display of enthusiasm before Cars ,1 finally became convinced that the city jail was a perfectly lovely piac, to sleep it off and when he woke up he found that his dream of bars and stone walls had come true. He will be given hearing tomorrow Lc- fore Police Judge The mas on a charge of drunkenness.

ORIGIN OF "QuAKER."

As to the Quakers. the origin of the nape is interesting. for it sprang from the lips of a local Justice Shal- low. one Bennett of Derby, in 1850. and was a gibe at George Fox. who appearing before his Worship bade him and all others present to quake" on hearing the word of God.

The Story of Mexico's People

There are 100000 people in
Mexico, and more than 10000
900 of these are either pure blood
ed Indians or largely of Indian
blood. There are perhaps 5,000,-
900 Indians with> ne admixture of
Spanish blood and more than
that many "mezizos" or half
breeds. The ruling class, of pure
or nearly pure Spanish blood,
forms a comparatively small pro-
portion of the entire population.
Ancient customs, superstitions
and languages still prevail among
the masses of the Mexican people.
The different tribes have different
languages and they cling to them
tenaciously. One writer speaks of
a Mexican town where he found
Aztecs, Otomi, Tephuas and Tona-
PEGS in as many different quarters
of the town, and speaking as many
entirely different dialects.
Although most of the Mexican
Indians have been converted to
Christianity, many of them are
only nominally Christians. Ancient
Aztec rites still prevail in many
places, practiced secretly. A few
Mexicans are still frankly pagans.
OF all the peoples of Mexico,
the much-maligned and much per-
secuted tribe of Yaquis are per-
haps the noblest and most de-
serving of admiration and respect.
Certainly they deserve something
better than the exile, and slavery
that most of them now suffer. The
Yaquis are a robust and active
people, poetical, musical and fill
ed with the love of freedom. 1t
goes without saying that they are
brave and warlike. They have
waged war against the Mexican
government for more than a CEN
fury, and have only recently been
subdued. Most of them have been
transported from their native
mountains to Yucatan.
The Indians are mostly farm
ers, though some of them still
cling to the primitive trades of
the aborigine, such as basket
weaving, the making of mats and
of pottery, They live today much
as they did 400 years ago. The
influence of the Spaniard has done
little to change their mode of life.
The Mexican masses live on
corn, beans and chill peppers. The
