concerning Professor Henri Napol-

my house unattended. save by his
cOachman, who remained outside, to
submit himself to test Of his powers
before an assemblage OF welLknown
scientific gentlemen. He entered the
drawing room and after but a few
moments conversation / securely
blindfolded him and requested him to
proceed. He almost Immediately
grasped the hand of one Of my guests
calling him by his full name, then
telling the names OF number of his
friends and relatives, many OF whom
had long since been dead. He also
related to him many incidents and
facts In his past career well known 10
all present. Continuing he consecu-
lively approached twenty more per-
sons. in each and every case giving
most precise replies to all queries
and winning the admiration and re-
spect OF his listeners. Questions
were then written on paper and plac-
ed In sealed envelopes TO every one
OF which he gave correct answer
without the least hesitation. The
room being dimly lighted II was al
most impossible for the professor to

CAN'T STOP FIGHT PICTURES
States Attorney of Washington
County So Rules.

Montpelier, Aug 1O.-State's At
torney Benjamin Gates is of the opin
ion that there is no law in Vermont
to prohibit the exhibition OF the JEFF
fries-Johnson fight pictures, as it is
questionable whether they can be
classed with immoral and immodest
pictures when the law prohibits
showing.
At a meeting OF the civics depart
ment of the Woman's club held this
afternoon in the Kellogg-Hubbard Ii
brary hall resolutions were adopted
opposing the exhibition of the fight
pictures in Montpelier ON the ground
that they are not proper for children
to see, and that as showing them in
larger cities is prohibited they also
should be prohibited in smaller cities

Continual Interest
 In Revival Meetings

The Tempe Tabernacle revival conducted by Evangelist G. w Thompson continues to grow in in terest The mems chorus on Wed nesday evening was a decided sue cess. The audience was unusually large and all present declared that the mems chorus, the first of the kind ever seen in the church work of the city should be reapted. Ac- cordingly arrangements have been made for the men to sing in chorus again Sunday night and a strong eff fort will be made on the part of the leaders to have between twenty-five and fifty men on the platform Sun day night The ladies' chorus which was to have sung on Friday night was hindered on account of the rain, but an enthusiastic meeting was held The ladies present sang in chorus and were asked to sing again on Tuesday night. They readily con sented and Tuesday night is expected to be one of the great nights of the meeting as the ladies say they will have at least fifty in the chorus. The subject for the Sunday evening sermon will be, Felix Trembled There has been an even dozen or additions to date.

tend who may not now care to pledge themselves.
 One thing should be borne in mind by the public and that is that this is not a money making scheme. Those back of the move will be very we'll satisfied if the course pays for itself and will be thankful if there is no deficiency to be made at the end of the season by private subscrip ton. The purpose of the move Is to supply the people of Tempe with a course of lectures and entertainments that will be interesting and instruc- tive and which at the same time will be of some educational value. The Normal auditorium offers an ideal place for these lectures and with the number of students Tempe has a course of this kind will be of much value to them as well as the other residents.

Commission Houses
 And the Melon Men
Seeking the Right Firm to Handle
 Next Seasons Crop.
Handle

For several days there have been commission firm representatives in the city for the purpose of lining the Mesa growers up for the next seasons crop of cantaloupes. The meeting called yesterday afternoon in the Coliseum was quite well attended, the important feature of the meeting being that this season the business with the associa- tion will be handled by the sealed bid method. In other words all prospect i've purchasers of next seasons crop of melons from the Mesa district must have to submit a sealed bid before No vember 12, at which time the propos- als will be opened. The association will reserve the right to reject all bids, but it is anticipated that some pro gress will be made by the method adopted.
 The meeting yesterday was called to order by President D. r. Jones, K. l.. MumfOrd, the secretary of the assOcia- ing being present in the capacity of secretary. Other than the adoption of the sealed bid method of negotiating with commission firms it was decided to call another meeting this afternoon at 4:30 o'clock in the Coliseum so that the growers may meet with Alexander Strachan, of Los Angeles. manager of the Mutual Distributing concern. Two representatives of that concern, P. r. Myhand and MT. Berg, were present yesterday, but they desired that their manager be heard by the growers, and as it was impossible for him to be present, a meeting was called for to- day. F. E. Cadwallader, representing Crutchfield & Woolfolk of Pittsburg Pa, was also present and with hin were Lionel Kendrick, secretary of the Glendale association, and Albert Con- nor, also a grower of the Glendale dis trict. The Glendale product was mar
 keted through MT. Cadwaliader's firm last season. Bert Wingar, representing the H. Woods company, was present Albert COnnOr, while a grower of th' Glendale district, succeeded i1 getting meeting called for next week so tha a representative of s. H. Girard &5 CO of Cincinnati, Ohio, might be present

Tempe Lecture Course
 Now Seems Assured
While More Money Is Still Needed, Good Deal Has Been
 Pledged.

That there will be a lecture course in Tempe this winter now seems to be an assured fact. Those who are taking the initiative in the movement held a meeting a few days ago and included on the committee of ar engagements the various newspaper representatives in Tempe.
 Different ones for several days have been circulating agreements to support the course among the people of Tempe and have met with gen erous support. It is roughly estimated that about $250 has been pledged. This does not take into consideration the large body of students who will be permitted to enjoy the course at half price. It is figured that if $450 is pledged, it will be safe to contract for a $700 lecture course for it is calculated that good many will at

 PROTECTION An Organization To Be
 Formed in Tempe PRESENT CREDIT SYSTEM
It Works a Hardship and Frequently a Loss Upon the Merchants - Steps Taken to Change Exist ing Conditions.

It is admitted by all Tempe mer- chants that the credit system that is in vogue, is the one thing that causes them more trouble and loss than anything else. For several years there have been spasmodic efforts made from time to time to organize Merchants Protective association but the move has never been proper ly followed up and never brought to successful conclusion.
 For some time now such an organ ization has been in force in Mesa. A couple of days ago couple of prominent Tempe merchants called at the offices of the Mesa organiza- tion for information and found that the organization there was working perfectly These two merchants re- turned to Tempe and immediately prepared an agreement which was soon signed by practically every merchant in town. In. this agree ment. the signers signify their will
 ingness and intent to form similar organization and in all probability, a meeting of the merchants will be
 held early this week at which time the matter will be further considered and the details of the organization further worked out.
 The purpose of the proposed or ganization is exactly what the name indicates It is for the protection of the merchants. There will be plenty of time after the organization is peril ted to give more of it's de-
 tails but briefly the plan is this
 When a customer fails to make his payments of accounts when due at one store, his name will be placed before the association and 1t will then be impossible for that same customer to secure credit at some other Tempe store so long as he is in debt at another store in Tempe. As the matter stands now, 1t is not uncommon for a party to exhaust
 his credit at one establishment and then run a large bill at another one. The association will do away with this It is not proposed to work a hardship upon any one but the mer- chants feel that the time has arrived when they must do something for their own protection.
 It is probable that upon the organ iZation of the association here the Mesa body will work in conjunction. By this means it will be difficult for a Mesa man who may have exhaust cd his credit at his home town and be on the black list, to secure credit in Tempe or vici versa.

THE QUAIL SEASON.

The quail season was officially opened yesterday morning at four o'clock by B. H. Dodt and the writer among many others. The two former spent a couple of hours in the field and returned in time for late breakfast with a hearty appetite and a few birds; they modestly prefer not to state the actual number. A good many Tempeites spent the en- tire day in the field while dozens of others are preparing to spend today in that manner.

Teachers Gather
 In a Social Way
Those of the Public School Enter tained at the Training School.

The members of the public school faculty were pleasantly entertained at the Normal training school Friday evening by the teachers of the train ing school. The gathering was rather informal in nature but was thor oUghly enjoyed by all A program of musical numbers was provided and light refreshments were served.
 In addition to being a pleasant so- cial affair, the gathering gave Op- portunity for the teachers of the two schools to talk over in an unofficial way, matters of mutual interest with regard to school work in Tempe.

THE FIREMEN's DANCE.

There was a rather light attendance at firemens dance Friday evening, due no doubt to the wet weather. There was talk for time of post poning it but rather than disappolnt those who were present the manage ment concluded to give the affair as advertised There were something over seventy tickets sold though there were less than a third that many present.

THE RAIN FELL.

What gave promise of being an all night rain but turned out to be but a light shower. came Friday evening about : o'clock. Big drops fell for a short time and there was every appearance of a heavy rain in the east. By 10 o'clock, however, the sky had partially cleared off and the rain stopped. What did fall was sufficient to settle the dust a little.

ANOTHER BUILDING SYNDICATE.

A building syndicate has been or ganized for the purpose of erecting ten houses in the new Kimball addition, which will be thrown on the market on Tuesday of this week at public auc- tion. The features of the association is identically the same as the concern erecting buildings in the North Ever green addition In fact the personnel of the two concerns is the same. The two thousand dollar minimum for houses to be erected is an important clause deserving of being featured.
