THE TRIBUNE PATTERN.

Frocks that are made in guimpe style are
always pretty for the younger girls; the
newest are made with sleeves and body
portion in one and the one illustrated has
a straight pleated skirt. 1t is worn over an
entirely separate guimpe. The guimpe may
be of any style and any material preferred,
but just now there is fancy for making
the sleeves TO match the dress and this
guirnpe shows that feature, the yoke only
being of embroidered muslin. The tucks
over the shoulders give becoming fulness.

DEATH AGAIN ENTERS
 THE lUKIu FAMILY THE DEATH YESTERDAY OF MRS.
 HARRY LUkiN. She is Survived by Three Months Old Daughter Making Her Death
 Especially Sad.

For the second time within the short space of two months, death has again removed member of the Lukin fam lily. Mrs. Harry Lukin passed away yesterday forenoon about ten o'clock It has been known for several days past that there was no hope of her recovery and the members of the fam fly were consequently prepared for the blow in a measure but that made it none the less difficult to bear and the husband is almost prostrated with grief
 Mrs. Lukin was formerly Miss HerZ- berg. She was married to Mir Lukin about three years ago and six months after her wedding suffered a severe attack of pneumonia. It was feared for time that she would never re- cover and though she finally did, she never again regained her former TO- bust health. About ten days ago she contracted a hard cold: this settled on her lungs which were impared by her previous sickness and it became eyi- dent early in her illness that she had not one chance in a hundred of sur vivins the attack. She was very near deaths door for forty eight hours pre- vious to the end and life. for the last twelve hours was only kept up by the liberal use of oxygen. During the few days of her sickness there were ire quent consultations of physicians and everything possible was done for her but to no avail The cause of death was given by the attending physician as oedema of the lungs.
 Mrs Herzberg. the mother of the deceased. arrived here from California but two days before her daughters death. Beside her husband. Mrs Lu- kin is survived by a baby daugh- ter, three months old which makes. her death at this time particularly sad and distressing.
 The funeral services vii be held this afternoon at o'clock at the home on Dewey street and the remains will be taken to the eight o'clock train for shipment to Los Angeles where the interment will be made. MT. Lukin will accompany the body and will remain in Los An geies until the last of next week.

REVIVAL OF RUMORs
 OF |NTERURBAM LINE
The Electric Connection of Mesa and
 Phoenix. '--t
The building of an electric car lin

The building of an electric car line from Mesa to Phoenix or from Phoenix to Mesa. which ever way one cares to say it. has again come to the surface and this time in the way of a more tangible form. IL is d fact however that the building of an electric line between the two above named towns has been discussed so frequently in the past that a reference to the proposition has a certain re- semblance to the sudden discovery of the long lost Charles Ross. the rumor which has gone the rounds innumer able times has d hirsute adornment nearly a foot in length until it seems. even at this time. nearly sacreligious to drag that ancient and over worked proposition again before the public.
 However. the information has been given out and semi authoritively at that, that with hardly a doubt the ac- tual building of the car line is prac- ically assured The center street bridge building has good deal to do with the electric road. When the bridge is completed it is stated that the car line will follow. The information was dis seminated from the Phoenix headquar ters and has a good many of the ear marks of an assured fact.

The case against Ross Daley where in he was charged with grand larceny in the theft of horse from Mrs. James Daley has been settled and the case dismissed. The horse in question has been returned to Mrs. Daley as well as some cattle which it was in- timated ct the first preliminary would be brought into a later case. In order to get dismissal of the case by the court the prosecuting witness. a
 brother of Mrs. Daley. made affidavit that he had been misinformed in the beginning in regard to the matter and Mrs. Daley stated to the court that she was not positive that the money used in the purchase of the horse was her individual money or not. Ross Daley the defendant tore up the bill "f sale in the presence of the court.

ESCAPED KANGAROO COURT.

Ben Ferguson who was found guilty of making an assault on Contra ctor L. F.. C. Smith and for which he was given a suspended sentence has arriv- ed in Msea. Ferguson was the one out of a good many men who are talk en to the Phoenix jail who escaped the vicissitudes of the kangaroo court. At the time of Ferguson's incarceration the court was in splendid working condition, John Edwards, the big Swede and James Daley who were both officers of the court could be easily depended upon to execute a sentence which they might impose up- on a casual visitor to their depart ment. Ferguson. however. owes his escape to Officer Burton. who entered word in his behalf. asking the men of the court to desist in their usual procedure if they could possibly do so. They immediately took the case of Ferguson off their docket and he was excused from the trying as well as the painful ordeal of a thorough well organized kangarooing.

 CIGARETTES Moral Suasion Advocated by
 Member Of Order NOT DRASTIC ORDINANCES Miss Hollister, National Or ganizer in Mesa For Whose Entertainment a Program Covering Two Days Is Arranged
NOT DRASTIC ORDINANCES

in my opinion the proper way to stamp out the cigarette habit among boys which within the past few years has increased to such alarming pro- portions, is not by the adoption of drastic ordinances prohibiting the smoking of cigarettes which makes conviction subject to fine. but rather by appealing to the young man through some medium in which he is vitally interested" declared Miss Hol- lister, national organizer and lecturer Of the w C. T. U., at the Alhambra hotel yesterday where she was the guest of Mrs. J. I. Coffin. -The w. c. T. L." continued Miss Hollister. up on its organization had for its ob- ject the defense of the home. The real object was a crusade against all cohol. but since the organization there have come other evils which has ne cessiated the division of the organiza- tion into departments all responsible to a general head"
 She said: In my opinion the liquor traffic is gradually diminishing. Of course there are not so many states going dry as two years ago when the comment Wlue wave swept dCIoss thc United States. However since that time we have been gaining counties where then we gained states"
 The program as arranged for the national organizer while in Mesa is as follows:
 Saturday (this) afternoon. com mencing at 2:30 at the Methodist church there will be a meeting of the w c. T. U. and it is requested that the superintendents of all departments be present. Everyone will be made welcome.
 Saturday evening a reception will be given to Miss Hollister and the city teachers at the home of l.. w. Stil- well.
 Sunday morning, the pulpit of the Methodist church will be occupied by the national lecturer.
 Sunday evening the W. c. T. U. address will be delivered from the Baptist pulpit.
 Tuesday afternoon Flower mission day will be observed at the home of Mrs. J. I. Coffin and will be conduct ed by Mrs. R. W. Westover. superin- tendent of the mission.
 Yesterday morning a short talk was made to the students of the public school along the lines as outlined above The subject treated was that of narcotics.
