EVERYBODY DOESN'T KNOW
WHY THE WIND BLOWS

The wind. like other things III every
day life. rarely invites notice. unless 4,
is unusually high" and rarely do We
hear the questions why does the wind
blow :'' WHY doesn't the wind blow >"
What is this wind that rtIsIes "out ~
the nowhere into the here" why
should it blow at all. or why sometimes
So gently and at other times with the
rcsistlcss force Of the hurricane?
The wind could have no power. Il
could no, even exist. If the air had no
weight. this weight having been shown
to be about 81 grains for each 100 cubic
inches of air. says the March St Nicbo-

What causes the wind To blow or why

To explain. Simply stated. it IS caused

When the matter came up for hear
ing before Judge Kent yesterday
morning the defense demurred on
various grounds. First, there was a
general demurrer on the ground that
no cause of action vas set forth in
the petition; on the further ground
that the allegations of the plaintiff
who had come into the case was a
taxpayer were based on information
and belief. and on this ground the
demurrer was sustained and tho
plaintiff was given permission to
amend his complaint.
Another ground for demurrer at
tacks the certiorari plan directly. II
is contended by the defense that the
action OF the board i'm authorizing
the issuance Of the license was not

JAPANS FIRST NATIVE
KNIGHT OF THE FILM
Had Hard Time Learning Process
and a Harder Time Getting SItters.

RENO Shimooka, who Is now IS years
of age and whose residence is in Asa
kuso Park, Toxic, was the first Jap
anese to learn the art Of photography
When he was a student of painting.
when a youth fifty years or more ago,
he saw photographs for the first time
and al once made up his mind 10 intro
ducc this to him marvellous western art
into Japan.
He found the introduction decidedly
difficult. according to the Oriental
Economic Review, as the Japanese OF
those days believed photography TO be
a sort of witcnery practiscd by Chris
tian people. COnfiding his plans to his
master. Shimooka became an cmploye
i'm the fort at Uraga with the hope of
being able to learn Photographic pro-
cesscs from some Occidental or other
whom he might meet when the foreign
men-of-war touched there.
Day after day he watched patiently
for the coming of what were known as
the black ships" telescope in hand,
and it came about in the end that he
was able TO learn a little photography.
As soon as Yokohama became an open
port Sbimooka put up his photogra-
piers sign on Benten -dori avenue.
But no japanese could be persuaded
to come to his studio. for the current
notion as to photo taking was that the
life of the subject was shortened, as
photography extracted a part Of the
human oil or essence Of human exist
ence. The only customers this pioneer
photographer had for long time were
the sailors of foreign vessels who
thought that being photographed by a

ST. JOSEPH'S ANNEX
DEDICATED TUESDAY
Twenty two Rooms Added to WolI-
Known Phoenix institution.

The new annex Of St. JoSeph's hos
pitaI WAS dedicated last Tuesday
afternoon at 1880 by Bishop Granion
of Tucson. The service was private
and was attended only by visiting
clergy and Sisters. of whom a mum
her came to Phoenix to he present
AT the ceremony.
Rev. Father SEVERN, pastor of St
Mary's church of this city. attended
the bishop. with Father Rowen Of
Evansville. Father kohlman of Pres
colt. Father Clinton of St Mary's
parish. and two Spanish missionaries
from San Antonio. The Sisters of the
Catholic hospitals at Prescott and
Nogales were also present with the
Sisters of St Joseph's. Bishop Gran
ION returned to Tucson the morning
after the dedication.
The new hospital annex is splcu-
did and improved building in the pure
Mission style of architecture. and may
he safely pronounced the finest and
most perfectly appointed hospital
building i'm the Southwest. The front
facade is made particularly striking
by the nine well proportional arches
which give an immediate impression
of soIidity and strength to the be-
holders. and this impression is re-
heated when the interior of the build
ing is examined. for its design is con-
sistent throughout
There are two STOKES i'm the struc-
ture. with 90 rooms. all either with.
or connecting with model and sani-
tarv bathrooms, of which there are
eighteen. No sanitary feature which
could be incorporated into a hospital
has been overlooked. on each floor
there is a public bath, with shower
and portable tub on rollers, which
can be filled and wheeled to the pa
tents rooms. The floors are hard
wood throughout the entire building.
The east and west sides have
porches along the entire length of the
building. and every room opens d.
rectlv out upon porch. This is a
feature which will he appreciated by
the patients.
hot water system has been in
stalled in the basement, where the
sisters and nurses dining rooms are
also located. This hot water system
will furnish heat for the operating
rooms and halls of the old hospital
as well as for the annex. There Is
treatment room and a diet kitchen
ON each floor. all these rooms being
as complete i'm their equipment as
could be desired Six rooms of the
NOW annex are already furnished in a
very substantial and servicable man
ner. each room having dressing ana
bedside table. a comfortable rocker
and a brass bedstead. The Sisters
of the institution have announced
that they will give a supper. the pro-
Goods of which will be used for fur
nishing the remainder of the rooms.
The date has not been definitely de-
cided upon as yet
ON the first floor there IS "A large

visitors can be entertained, and these
rooms which are bright and sunny
will no doubt prove to be popular

But not every statesman has been able
to express his appreciation Of these
great changes as clearly and concise
ly as did Governor Woodrow Wilson
Of New Jersey in a recent address.
Governor Wilson said:
Now, take leave to believe there
Is one singular question that underlies

cussed on the political platform at the

cumstance is that nothing is done in
This country as 1t was done twenty

twenty years ago read now like docu-

ganization Of society. We are eagerly

Corporations as JOY Riders.


Governor Woodrow Wilson of New

quently uses comparisons and anec-
dotes Of n decidedly original and Of
ten distinctly humorous nature. In a

lustrated the difference between
good" corporations and bad cor.
porations. as follows:
II have no objection to the Or
dlnary automobile properly handled

gentleman. Many Of the people see
handling automobiles handle them as
II they had neither conscience nor
manners. / have no objections to the
size and beauty and power of the au-

the size and conscience of the men
who handle them. and what l object
TO is that some of these corporation
men are taking Joy rides In their cor
porations.
you know what men do when they
take Joy ride. They sometimes have
the time Of their lives and sometimes,
fortunately. the last time of their lives.
Now these wretched things are taking
Joy rides in which they don't kill the
people that are riding in them, but
they kill the people they run over"

There is no dodging the fact
that Congress is anxious TO avoid
the consideration of all Legislation
at this session except what il
simply must take up. Statehood
for New Mexico and Arizona,
reapportionment, direct elections
of senators, Panama Canal tolls,
Panama Exposition matters,
army legislation, conservation
legislation, the control of corpor-
ations, these are some of the
things which are clamoring for
attention and which now seem
destined to go over. An excep-
tion MAJ be made of a resolution
for the President to Invite Latin
American Countries to exhibit at
the Panama-California Exposi-
tion in San Diego in 1915, which
Col. D. C. Collier, Director Gen.
eral, is here to urge. as that is
not looked on as legislation,
strictly speaking. The Hondur-
an and Nicaraguan treaties, in
volving loans, are not likely togo
through at this session, and there
is great disappointment because
the countries to the sonthward
are pretty hard up and need the
money.
