 MATTHEWS Reelected By Normal Board Without Term HAS SERVED TEN YEARS And Has Watched Growth of the School From Small Institution to the Place It Now Occupies Second to None in the Southwest

The Tempe, Normal board Of educa- ton held a meeting yesterday after
 noon and transacted d rather impor-
 tant piece Of business which will meet
 with the hearty approval of the public
 at large. and which will be especially
 gratifying to those who are closely in
 terested in the welfare of the Normal.
 The board reelected President A J.
 Matthews-not for the ensuing year,
 or for the next two years. but without term. Without term means that he
 has been reelected indefinitely. q plan
 that has long been in vogue in other schools in the country. but which has
 never before been in use here. Here
 tOfore the election of the president of
 the Normal and the members of the
 faculty has been from year to year.
 This new plan lends q permanency 10 the position and is a method that is altogether desira ble in an institution of the size and standing or the Tempe Normal. When questioned regarding his reelection yesterday afternoon. President Matthews nodestly declined to say very much on the subject. and refused to talk at all on the matter of increased salary. It is known. how ever, that his future salary will be no less than it has been in the past. In fact, on the quiet. it is known that the board. in re-electing Prof Matthews added q little tO the remuneration of the office in appreciation of the ex- Cellent Service that President Mat thews has given the institution.
 President Matthews Is just now clos ing his tenth year president of the Normal. When he first occupied that position the attendance at the insti- tuition numbered less than q hundred students, and there was no training school Today the attendance is over 250 in the Normal proper and the train ing school has an attendance of l1O Ten years ago the Normal consisted Of the main building and the old build ing. which was later used as train ing school, and which later on was re- moved During President Matthews term of office, existing over those ten years, he has watched the growth of the institution-first one building then another. the boys and girls dormi- tories. the new training school and the DTtSlutnl ; COllesSt, LiN ilstii- anu other smaller buildings, and within the last couple of years the science build ing and the new auditorium, until the Normal school has reached a point where it is second to no institution of it's kind in the southwest. All this President Matthews has watched. and in a large measure been responsible for Not only has the school grown in size and attendance, but also in point of recognition by the outside world. IL is now credited equal with the state normals of oregon. California and legally and officially. and graduates from it may teach in those and other states without examination.
 Within a week or ten days the board will hold another meeting and will at that time take up the election of the faculty members.

TEMPE WINS FIRST
 OF THREE GAME SERIES
Defeated University Yesterday by a
 Score of { to 2.

A telephone message was received last night from Tucson saying that the Normal base ball nine which left here yesterday morning for that city to play a series of three games with the university team. won the first one yesterday afternoon by a score of to ?, which taken by itself indicates a good game all around.
 Halbert pitched for the nOrmals and struck out seventeen rsen while he allowed the university to get but five hits.
 Today there will be a double header one game in the forenoon and the other in the afternoon. It is expected there will be some more good news this evening though the score of yes- terday indicates that the Tempe team is not throwing away anything and the university is amply able to keep the normal boys awake.

.FLOUR|SH|NG BEET
 FIELDS ON, ALL SIDES
Over Six Hundred Acres Under the
 Tempe Canal.

Lafayette Myers of the Southwestern Sugar and Land company spent Thursday on this side of the river. looking over the beet crop in the Tempe section. He was more than pleased with the situation. as it is today, and says that the beets on the Reeden ranch. which the company has rented. and on other ranches in that vicinity. are better than he has ever seen anywhere. He predicts a record breaking crop there this year.
 In all, there are something over six hundred acres of beets in under .the Tempe canal, and just at this time they present a beautiful aspect. One can spend an afternoon tO an excellent advantage taking a drive in the Kyrene district: here beets may be seen on every side.

ORANGE TREES
 CONDEMNED \ Gar Load That Arrived
 At Mesa Yesterday THE DREADED MEAlY BUG
Detected By Entomologist Morrill, and the 10000 Trees Making Up Car load Were Ordered De- stroyed

car of citrus trees from Florida arrived at Mesa yesterday morning and was inspected in the afternoon
 by Dr A w Morrill,. entomologist and w. K. Bowen inspector of the Territorial Horticultural commission
 The car contained about II.0O0 trees. which were said to have been the most carefully prepared and packed trees received from Florida this year
 The result of the inspection was a
 matter of considerable interest and concern, everyone interested including the inspectors. being hopeful that the trees would prove free from insect pests. Hopes however were abandon ed when after the boxes had been re- moved from the car to the platform one specimen after another of tht. destructive mealy bug was located.
 These insects were found in small numbers throughout the shipment, some being small in size and scarcely recognizable as incests to the naked eye while others were full grown and conspicious. As the mealy bugs are among the most dangerous citrus pests. ranking close to the white flies, the entomologist and inspector of the Horticultural Commission are unable to grant q certificate of re- lease and the shippers have been not flied to advise whether they desire to have the shipment rebilled out of the territory or to have it destroyed While many citrus growers and pros pective citrus growers were disap- pointed all of those who were pres ent when the trees were inspected ex- pressed themselves as feeling that the conforming of the car.
 Dr. Morrill, states regarding the cit rus mealy bug that it is pest which is known to be able to live in the Salt River Valley As stated by him in q circular d member of the Horti- cultural Commission published in The on January :, two speci- mems were found here last Septem- Der on trees planted a year ago. He states that the inspection of trees would not be a satisfactory method of eliminating the infested trees since many of the smaller insects would escape detection. No human being could in reasonable time in- spect even one hundred trees so thoroughly that he could guarantee that on going over them Il second 1 time no specimens of the mealy bug l could be located. In fact it would l be to risky too bet on such pro- ! position. |

ACTIVITY IN MESA
 STREET CAR CIRCLES
DR. CHANDLER GOES EAST ON
 THAT BUSINESS
Work On the Line Must be Begun
 By June i.

Dr. A. J. Chandler left Mesa by way of the Santa Fe Thursday even ing for Chicago where it is under stood he will remain for three weeks or month looking after his inter ests in connection with the proposed street car line for Mesa. pr. Chan dler was questioned few days prior to his starting for the east con- corning the street car project and he reported at that time that he had nothing definite to give out but that he would probably be able to give a statement in the near future.
 IL will be remembered that 2ccOrd- ing to the franchise granted by the city council a year ago the first of next June. that Dr. Chandler has until the first of June of this year in which to commence work on the line. There is a proyisO in the fran chise which gives the council per mission to extend the time of the commencement of work in the event that sufficient argument is presented by Mir. Chandler to justify the mem- bers of the council in making such an extension of time. According to
 
 tiOn work is to commence within one year from the date of the approval of the franchise and shall be com pleted and in actual operation with in two years from the date of the of the franchise.
 There are some other features of the franchise that might be of in terest at this time. It is specified in the contract between the city and pr. Chandler that the cars must operate between the hours of seven in the morning until nine o'clock in the evening and that the fares within the city cannot exceed five cents. In the event that the line should commence running cars and should months it then becomes the privilege of the council tO cancel the agree ment existing and to remove the tracks from the city.
 The fact is pretty generally under stood that in the event the car line is put in operation in the city that t will be extended seven miles south- of town to the Chandler ranch which t is proposed shall be cut up into small tracts and disposed of to east ern people.

YOUTHFUL CHAUfFEURS
 WILL BE BARRED
City Council Will Establish Minimum
 Age Limit

According to instructions given by the city councilmen, City Attornty Sh- verthorn is drafting an ordinance which will prohibit the driving of au- tomobiles by. children. It has not been determined at just what age the limit will be placed but it will be either fifteen or sixteen years. Ac- cording to Attorney Silverthorn the laws throughout the east have placed the limit at fifteen years but after discussing the matter with number of the citizens he is of the opinion hat youth in this section at 15 years is probably as old as one of sixteen in a climate which is not so conducive to early maturity.
 It is understood that the reasons for the ordinance is as a general pre- caution against accidents. It is a well known fact that a number of the youngsters of this place have taken readily to the art of running the car, in fact some of them probably do it better than the old man himself; but in the minds of the members of the city council there must be a limit fixed to the youth of drivers and as a consequence the ordinance is to result.
 There have been few accidents some of them of rather serious nature that have happened while the machines were being driven by young sters. but the question has been raised that there is a bare possibility that the same accidents would have oc- cured had the machine been in charge of alI ndc c a nf fact there is probably a majority of mile age covered by cars that are under the control of the boys and girls whose parents own cars. and under those conditions it would be perfectly nat ural that a majority of the accidents would happen while the ears were

 On the other hand it is the duty of the council to enact ordinances for the safety of the citizens of the com munity and when complaints are en- tered against reckless drivers whether they be young or old it becomes their duty to enact prohibitive ordinances
 The ordinance will work an especial hardship upon some of the young reI who have not arrived at that ripe age of fifteen but who are at the same time quite proficient at the wheel. It will mean that they will have to go in company with their father to the young lady's house and after sine is in the car drive tO the city limits and then give the old man permis- sion to walk back and tend to his own business.

SOME UNCERTMN7Y|WHEAT WAS FIRM
Remained in Yesterdays Stock
Misunderstanding Falling off in
Amount of Dealings.

New York, June 9.-There was q
further falling off In the amount OF
dealings in stocks today, and some
remaining uncertainty in the tone OF
the speculation, although on a mar
rowing range of fluctuations.
The relations of the railroads to
the control exercised by the govern
ment held its prominence as sub
ject Of influence, and sentiment was
unsettled still over the direction oil
that influence. The movement in ST
Paul was watched on account of the
Supposition that the policy Of re,
straint on the market had conferred
it's operations on that stock. The re-
cent heavy filling of stock has arous.
ed much conjecture over its source
and varying surmises over the ideu-
tity of the seller made up one of the
features of the day. The renewed
depression in st. Paul at the out Ell
was of considerable sentimental eff
feet on the whole list, and it's re-
bound had the effect of relieving the
heaviness of the general list.
Copper industrials were affected
both here and abroad by increase in
surplus stocks of metal during May,
reported yesterday by the Copper
Producers Association, and this con.
stituted another influence in the
early depression.
The upward course of United
States Steel helped to lift prices dur
ing the day, that stock showing. at
