following day, August 16, the Catho- lies are summoned to make their se- lection and on August 27 the pro- Igressiyes, Madero's party, will con vene. Reyes is backed up by no party unless the various "Reyista Clubs may be considered as such. He is making the race as on inde- pendent and as yet no convention to place him in formal nomination has been called.
 Political gossip has 1t that the division in the following Of Madero and the entry of the Catholic party have weakened the chances of all but General Reyes. This candidate de- pended at no time upon any of the Maderistas nor upon the Catholics, but upon personal following. Such as this following is, it has not yet changed.
 The leading factor in what is all ready styled the church party is Ga briel Fernandez Somelleva, a wealthy resident of the capitol, who has not hitherto been identimied with poll tics. It was not believed that the clergy would grant their support, but in the formal call for the convention issued today the announcement is n.ade that it will De held ia the Ca thedral, that the arch bishop of Mexi- co will officiate and that prior to the political deliberation a mass will be sung, the holy communion admins tered and the benediction of the Dles. sed sacrament pronounced.

Irene'S Business Counsel Prevailed
 A TRUE WANT AID STORIETTE

Copyright. 1911, by DeForest Porter.
 We started out with the right idea when we were married five years ago, A business principle was the backbone of our marriage certificate The sub stance of that backbone was plenty of love, confidence and a sense of honor.
 I was never able to save a cent when single, on my S15 a week salary but when Irene took the purse it grew to a bank book. When I was raised to SIS week we got the fever of saw ing so badly that in a little over a year we had fine surplus.
 In this marriage, the business end of it was a recognized partnership. in which I acted as the provider of means and Irene acted as the distributor. We paid promptly for all which we bought. We took out a small percentage for en- joyment, in which we shared the ex- pense equally. When I was raised to
 $25 a week We were paying for a two family house. The interest of my story, however, centers in the finding of that house.
 That we did find it and purchased it at the price which we were able to is all due to Irene and her good busi- ness sense. We had made up our minds to own our home at the very start. Always in debt when single on my s15 salary, I gasped at the thought of

PRINCESS AT SCHOOL.

pr. Marks tells some amusing stor ies of the early days of the school in Burmah, of which he was for so many years the head. Shortly after the school was opened, King Thebaw said:
 Will you teach some of my sons?'
 Certainly" said Dr. Marks.
 What ages do you like them at?'
 pr. Marks replied: From r to IA
 The king said: Bring all my sons between 12 and 14 to me"
 Nine Princes came in. Four came to school the next day. each riding on an elephant and with two gold um- brellas Each also was escorted by forty soldiers. Afterward the whole nine came. so there were nine Princes, nine elephants, eighteen gold um- brellas and 36O soldiers. The ele- plants stayed outside. but when the Princes came into the schoolroom all the other boys threw themselves flat on their faces on the ground. It was forbidden for any one to stand ar sit in the presence of Princess. Dr. Marks found this stat eOf affairs, very inconvenient, and the royal etiquette at school was. at his request, consid- erably abated.-London Globe.

NJ APPEAL
 ID COURT Gentlemen Owl Will Not
 Contest Ordinance MILLER F0RFE|TS BAIL Marshall Avows Independ- ence of Criticism When Enforcing law-Attorney Almost Retained, But Case Was Dropped.
MILLER FORFE|Ts BAIL

c. M Miller, president of the Gentle men owl Club, who was arrested last Sunday morning by the city marshall for violating the city ordinance prohib- iting the sale of spirituous liquors on Sunday. failed to appear in the police court at o'clock yesterday afternoon. His appearance had been set for that hour, and by failing to appear he for feited bail of $50.
 After the raid the secretary of the club. James G. Simpson, and Mir. Mil Ter consulted with an attorney in re- gard to their rights in the case. Bar nett F. Marks late Sunday night said that he believed the officers and di- rectors of the club would be abe to win their case in the courts if they should bring suit against the police department for the raid. It was thought, in view of this statement, and the fact that Simpson and Miller consulted with him that Mir Marks had been retained as attorney 10 represent the Gentlemen owl Club. The failure of Miller to ap- pear in court yesterday indicates that the officers of the club had reconsider
 
 city ordinance governing such cases.
 In order to cOntrovert the general impression that the Gentlemen Owl Club is connected with the Order of Owls. members of the order stated yes terday that there is not, and never had been any connection between the two organizations.
 "The order seems to be generally en- tertained," said a member of the club to a representative of The Republican. that the club is connected with the order. The fact that the club was or ganized a short time after the Order of owls was introduced into Phoenix has made the impression stronger. We want to have this corrected. as such belief is injurious to the order of Owls. There Is no. connection whatever De- tween the twog We were never m favor of having the club take such misleading name, but there was noth- ing we could do to prevent :t. The

what would happen to us both on that amount. but I had reckoned without my host. Irene actually saved on that salary and never allowed me to get into debt. I curtailed the poker games. the cigarettes and that money was so carefully distributed by my wife that in three months time the home began to look like a reality. When it came to real estate, counted Irene out She didn't mind, she caid. All she de- manded was a fireplace. a verandah and a back yard. I haunted offices and besieged real estate agents and gave it up more, than once. Finally Irene said: Why don't you look on the Want Ad pageo. I'm sure we could find something. and then we could go to- gether and look the place over at our leisure. That night and for several nights after we spent our evenings looking through the Houses for Sale columns. We made out a list of available ones and the next weeks were busy ores. Finally our choice simmered down to two places. and we decided on one that has proved ac- ceptable and profitable in every way.
 We are loyal patrons of the Want Ad page of the daily papers for we have proved the value of them to our home world as well as our business world
