ILLUSTRATE LECTURE
 ON SOUTHERN INDIA
An Interesting and Instructive Even
 ing at the Opera House.

The illustrated lecture on India at the opera house Sunday evening by Rev. Harden of the Congregational church drew q good congregation. The lecture was highly interesting and instructive one and was illustrated by seventy-one views Of India in the vii cinity of Bombay. The opera house stercopticon machine was used with excellent success. The views were plain and distinct
 The lecture and slides were supplied b. the American board of missions and as might he expected the lecture land views dwelt largely. but not cXclu- siveiy. with the work of the board in that district.

CONTROVERSY OVER
 THE LATE ELECTION
The Claim That Two Candidates or the High School Ticket Were
 Ineligible.

Rumor is current on the street that the high school election. m so Tar as the election of the trustee in the out of-town districts is concerned. may not be yet settled in favor of MT. Bircbett even though he received big major ity of the votes cast
 This view of the matter. according to rumor. is based on a technicslity to wit. as follows: That Mir. Bfrchett at the time of his election to mem bership on the high school board was q trustee of the district in which he resides.
 The school law on the matter seems explicit and says in section 93. part of para graph two: Provided. however. that no trustee of any of the school districts composing tho Union district shall he elected as trustee of the Union high school On the face of this. it would seem that Mir. Birchett was not qualified to run on the ticket and that if elected. hc could not fill the office. Whether this be the exact intcrprcta- tiun of the law or not remains to he seen. opinion differs on the matter and it will require an opinion from Superintendent Fulton or Attorney Bullard to put the public to rights on the subject. If MT. Bircbctt should he qualified on this basis. the same holds true in the case of Mir Jensen. who secured the next highest rimber of votes. for he too is me .iber of the board of trustees in the district in which he resides. the Double Buttes. By the process of elimination. that would leave !. F.. McClsin as the last man on the list and according to the theory of some. he is the man who is elected. others take another view a.id contcod that the whole election was made void. It seems to be rather q fine point Of law for some one to T. eide.

PAST HISTORY OF MARCH sHoWs|T MONTH
What It Has Dealt Out in Earlier
 Years.

When the ,sidents in and around Mesa awokc yesterday morning they were not a little surprised 10 see snow covering Mount Superstition and the Four Peaks perfectly white. Throughout the day the stuttcring at titude of the weather was undecided as whether to snow or rain or clear up and turn warm. brought out con- siderable speculation as to the freak ishness of the month in past years.
 March. in 1909. there was frost on the 1th and rain from the 22d to the 2sth. the minimum for the month be- ing on the 7th. which was 33 The records for March. 1907. shows that ice formed on the water in unpro- tccted places on the 2Sth. while there were signs of frost on the leth. The month during the year 1906 might be called record breaker. The thcr- mometcr went to 26 on the lst. In March 3ist. 1905. snow fell on Mount Superstition and hail on tho 18th. This year the month was ono of dampness. there being q rainfall of 3.i2 inches. A number of frosts are recorded Tor the month m l?Vf. ana the minimum of @ on the 31st would indicate that the weather man had a grouch March. 1908. was rather a tame month. there being onc-half an inch Of rainfall and some frost on the 16th and 11th. The month for 1902 shows frost on the 9th and 26th
 The minimum was 33. The month for 1901 records that snow could be seen on Mount Superstition on the 3ist in stant There were traces of frost on the 10th. 18th. 18th and 2ith. The March of 1900 was hardly worth re- cordinS. IL was season conducive to the manufacturing of poetry. There were no rains and the minimum was se. This was probably accounted for from the fact that in 1899 the thcr- mometer went to % on the 10th, and there was frost on the 18th.

MEDALS IN STORAGE

| Because the constitution of the United States
 prohibits the granting of titles of nobility, and
 forBids the acceptance of presents by officers of
 this government from foreign potentates with
 out the consent of congress, there are now in the
 custody of the chief clerk of the department of state 220 diplomas, medals, decoratinos and oth- CT gifts, and 1t is not known what will be done with these unbestowed baubles.
 But the senate committee on foreign affairs has submitted favorable report on the bill granting permission to certain officers of the United States to accept gifts from the govern ments of foreign countries, and for the first time in this country there has been laid down in this measure a rule which shall govern the authoriza- tion by congress of the delivery of these medals, decorations and testimonials
 It has been decided that no decoration shall be received except in those cases where it has been conferred for some particularly meritori- ous act by an officer of the United States and that no presents shall be received except those which may be properly classed as souvenirs and marks of courtesy, hence the pending bill grants authority for the delivery of certain presents which are considered as coming within these classes
 According to the record of the secretary of state, there have been one hundred and seventy instances in which the consent of the acceptance was refused, and the junk, little of which is of any intrinsic value, is stored away in the depart ment But it does not appear that any injury would be done to American dignity and democ- racy to allow the officers of the army and navy to receive these gifts, which were intended as nothing more than compliments to them as rep resentatves of this government

h The Halls of Congress
BY TAV,
Special Washinctor Correspondence

WASHINGTON, D. C., May 6.-Roosevelt has not promised to indorse Taft, either as to his past administration or the future.
 This is the advice I have just received from my friend, Gilson Gardner, the Washington newspaper correspondent, who is now with Col onel Roosevelt in Europe. Gardner met Roose- welt soon after the latter emerged from the Al rican jungtes and has been with him ever since. He has had almost daily interviews with the ex- president
 In making the above statement Gardner wish es it clearly understood that he has not been authorized to speak for Roosevelt. He makes the statement on his own convictions based on the many talks he has had with Roosevelt. If any one should be able to secure inside information from Colonel Roosevelt, Gardner is the man.
 Of all the corps of Washington correspond ents none was more loyal to Roosevelt than Gardner Roosevelt, while president, frequent ly showed his appreciation of Gardner's friend ship by giving him exclusive information. Gard ner was welcome at Roosevelt $ private office in the White House, and he frequently took ad- vantage of the opportunity to discuss leading is sues with the president as man to man. This close relationship between Roosevelt and Gard
 
 bility of Gardner being able to accurately rep resent Roosevelt's feeling toward Taft. Per haps it should be added, however, that Gardner is antiTaft. Although he supported Taft for the presidency, he parted company with the president as soon as the latter made his cab inet appointments and used his influence to pre- vent ''Uncle Joe" from being unseated as speaker.
 sNether directly nor indirectly writes Gardner from Paris, "has Roosevelt indorsed the Cannon-Aldrich tariff law which Taft signed and has repeatedly indorsed
 Roosevelt has not indorsed Taft either Nor has he given any assurances to any person in the United States or anywhere else upon which any such claim might be based.
 q" Roosevelt has Iiot promised to take part in any of the congressional elections, and so he certainly has not pledged himself to work for regular party candidates nor to bow to the yoke of party regularity. It should be said or the other hand, however, that Roosevelt has not induged in any criticism of President Taft nor of his administration. ;
