AFTER FRED TRrTLE.

Word comes from Phoenix of an effort to have Fred Tritle removed from the position Of chief clerk of the Arizona supreme court This matter was up for consideration during the present week when all the judges were in Phoenix. Many of the leadlng republicans of the territory are demanding that Tritle be busted from the clerkship because his brother is associated with Char ley Akers in the publication of the Arizona Gazette, a paper that has severely criticised Governor Sloan, Delegate Cameron and many other republican leaders during the last six months. Two of the five judges are said to be anxious to remove Tritle from the position, but the other three are so far supporting the idea that young Tritle ought not to be held accountable for the sins of his brother Harry. if he has any Judge Kent is said to be warm
 y supporting Tritle. while Judges
 Campbell and Lewis are also refus- ing to join Judges Doe and Sloan, who are reported to be ready to

BIBLE CLASS WILL
SOON BEGIN WORK

The first one of the Bible study
classes at the Y. M. C. A. to resume
work for the fall and winter will be
the second division of the "Iriquois"
class. Mr.. Pettijohn, the secretary in
charge of the boys department at the
local Y. M. c: A. said this morning
that he had decided to open this one
class early this week because some of
the boys were anxious to get back to
the work. The opening feature will be
a social. One of the chief features of
the Iriquois class is that membership
in it is open to boys who are not men,
bers of the Y. NJ. c. A.
Mr.. Pettijohn is getting line on
several new kinds of games, which he
proposes to install in the boys depart
ment during the autumn. The old ones
now in use are still attracting most of
the boys, but he believes it is time
for some new ones.

The Funny Penouins.

OF oil the foreign birds to be seen in
geological collections it Is the penguins
that gain the most popularity with the
least attempt to do so. says writer
IN the London Graphic, who proceeds:
They do not affably converse with the
public like parrots or make grotesque
gramaces like pelicans. Indeed. they
studiously ignore the visitors whom
they attract by their inimitably quaint
caricature Of humanity. No birds de-
part more in form from the usual bird
type, and there IS something about
them which irresistibly suggests an
overfed little boy In an overcoat with
the sleeves very much too tight for
him as they toddle about with their
stir wings hanging down or solemnly
mediate three inch jump.

More than twenty years ago, when
ahe was q little girl Of six years. she
fell down an elevated station and
broke her back just above the waist
line.
For six years she was taken from
one hospital to apother. suffering as
few suffer. Fourteen years ago she
was sent to the home for incurables. q

But. NO!
OF all the confirmed invalids in that
place Of 300 incurables she IL the most

interest In current events and is very
sweet In her disposition. When not
tortured by pain she IL always smil-
ling.
Think Of it!
She cannot even sit up in bed.
When she n strapped to q brace she
can recline In an invalid's chair and
b wheeled about. But that necessi-
tates q special nurse. and the helpless
GIRL cannot often afford the expense.
Her people are poor.
Once In the fourteen years she was
taken away-t0 the Manhattan hospi.
tal for . proposed operation. But,
alas. the spinal cord was 30 twisted
about the broken place that the sur
geons did not dare to operate.
IL must have been q great disap-
pointment to Miss Adams. but she
does not speak Of It. Instead, she is
radiant over the kind treatment she
Z received.
