To w. NJ, officers and members
Of Stafford Lodge No. 16, F. &
A. M:
We, your Committee on Resolu-
tions, in memory of Brother T. S.
Bunch, submit the following, as its
report:
WHEREAS, That it has been the
will, and has suited the purpose,
wisdom and goodness of an all-wise
Providence. the Supreme Ruler of
the Universe, to take unto himself
the soul of our beloved and esteemed
brother, Thomas Stamford Bunch;
and that as his presence is no longer
among our number, his chair vacant,
his wise council is heard no more;
and in the bosom of his family there
is present the heaviness of sadness
and bereavement that nothing but
Divine Power can relieve;
THEREFORE BE 1T RESOLVED,
FIRST, That we, as Masons and
brothers of our mystic circle, ex-
tend to the wife and widow of our
departed brother our sympathy and
sincere condolences in this her sad
hour of bereavement, and we point
her to Him who alone knows how to
relieve the troubled heart; God
who like the sun, though but one,
has power to bless and vivify a
world. To the boys he left: Your
father has gone from you, yet he is
present in the impress he has made
upon your lives for good; follow his
steps in all that which was the aim
of his life and council for your good.
In SO doing we extend to you our
hearty cooperation and help; our
sympathy and condolences are yours;
may the blessings of Him who rules
the destinies of all men be yours now
and evermore. Amen!
RESOLVED, SECOND, That these
resolutions be spread upon the min
utes of the Lodge, and that copy
of them be presented to the family
of our deceased brother, and copies
handed to the papers of the county
for publication.
Respectfully submitted in F. H. C.

AID FOR STATEHOOD

The profound thanks of the PEG,
pie of Arizona will be given to the
National Educational Association,
composed of thousands of the lead
ing educators of the republic, for
its action last Thursday at their con-
vention in San Francisco, in unani-
mously adopting resolution that
Arizona and New Mexico should be-
admitted as separate States without
delay"
The twenty thousand cultured
teachers who did that, coming from
daily contact with all classes of cit
liens in the nation, surely spoke the
universal feeling on this statehood
matter. Those teachers are not
fanatics, or political cranks, or spec
ial pleaders for governmental fads.
They simply recognize, from their
study and teaching of American his
tory that the people of the two
Territories, in the language of Rich.

be free and independent States" in
the Union.
The unanimous appeal of such q
body of culturists of the future citi.
zens of the nation ought to be re-
specially heard and wisely Needed

Air Lift Pump

The first test of an air lift irriga-

Texas was made on the farm of
F. L. Fisher, near Hoban, II miles
south of Pecos on the Pecos Valley
Southern Railway. The test was
made by r. A. Smith, of Indianapolis,
who came to Pecos especially to
make this test in the shallow water
belt here.
Mr.. Fisher has we'll 165 feet

the water strata and increased the

THE RIVER NILE.
When Its Waters Turn Green Thep
Comes the Welcome Flood.

When Its Waters Turn Green Thep
Comes the Welcome Flood.
The "green water Of the Nile is
quite a different thing from the
green water of the ocean, says the
Scientific American.
About April Is the Nile begins
its annual rise, and a month later
the effect is felt at Khartum. A
very curious phenomenon accompa-
nies this increase in the appearance
of the green water"
For a long time it was believed
that the color came from the
swamps of the upper Nile, lying iso-
lated and stagnant under the trop-
ical sun and polluting the waters
with decaying vegetable matter.
With the spring rise this fetid
water was supposed to be swept
into the streams to make its appear
ance in Egypt.
Within recent times, however,
this theory has been abandoned.
Now we are advised the green
water is caused by the presence of
innumerable numbers of microscop-
ic algae, offensive to the taste and
smell. They originate away up in
the tributaries and are carried to
the Nile, where under the hot sun
and in the clear water they increase
with amazing rapidity, forming col
umns from $50 miles to 500 miles
in length.
The weeds continue to grow, die
and decay until the turbid flood
waters put them to an end, for they
cannot exist except in clear water.
Offensive as, in some respects, the
green water is, it is hailed with de-
light by the Egyptians, since its ap-
pearance is sign of the real flood
time and the close of the water fam
