barnyard, without apparent attention
or care. thrifty, robust, lively chick
ems. The farmer is the best poultry
man in the country. We are the slaves
of the dogma Of the feather and the
standard, and the farmer produces
the eggs.
The way to develop the poultry in
dustry-one way-is to stop advocat-
ing pure-b bred or standardized fowls
for the farmer. The way for the
farmer to increase his profits Is to
get away from the dunghill idea and
to avoid fancy-bred fowls. He should
decide on the type Of fowl to breed
and forget the names OF the breeds.
Let him decide, bearing in mind the
conditions Of his markets. whether he
wants an egg type or small fowl; q
meat type, a large fowl; or q general
purpose or medium-sized fowl, and
then purchase pure-bred males Of the
proper type and Of good vigor. and
grade up his flock. The way for the
farmer to start In the poultry business
is to buy few cross-bred fowls. or
eggs from cross-bred fowls from his
neighbor, and then use pure-bred
males to grade up his flock.
Feather IL all right. pure-bred fowls
are all right, but the question 10. shall
the farmer make feathers and fancy

farmer about fancy points, or about

Commitment of Mary Scott to the In-
 sane Asylum.

A young woman. Mary Scott, in whom the morphine habit is well grounded, was tried in probate court yesterday on a charge of insanity and was committed to the insane asylum Except when under the influence of morphine she was more than ordinarily bright and intelligent.
 But she may be said to be under the influence of the drug all the time. Tor when she was not intoxicated by it she was consumed with q furious desire to possess it
 She was brought down from Mesa yesterday, having been committed for obtaining money by false pretenses though Justice Irwin who committed her recommended that the probate court take action in the matter.
 The girl is about twenty years of age, rather handsome and came of q good family that formerly resided at St. John. She appeared in Phoenix several weeks ago and laid the ground for complaint similar to that on which she was finally taken into cus- tOdy.
 At times she represented herself to be collecting funds for the Red Cross and similar charitable institutions At other times she was trying to sell cloth ing or other articles on the street, any thing to get money for morphine She frequently pretcnded nothing at all but begged piteOusly for small sums.

YOUNG PEOPLE WE'D
 WITHOUT PUBLICITY
Mr. Frederick Henshaw and Miss Car oline Reed Thompson Joined
 Hands Last Night.

The many friends of Frederick Henshaw and Miss Caroline Reed Thompson will be somewhat surprised to learn today of their marriage last evening at o'clock and their depar- ture a few minutes later on their honeymoon trip. They will be no less surprised. however. than were the relatives of Mir. Henshaw and most of the members of the faculty of the Arizona School of Music, to which the bride belongs. when they were sum moned yesterday to assemble at the school of music at the hour named to witness an event they were told would interest them. Scarcely had they gathered when Dr. Henry Martyr Campbell. pastor of the Presbyterian church. arrived and the secret quickly disclosed itself.
 The ceremony was followed by a season of congratulations and good wishes and many remarks upon the cleverness of the arrangements and the perfection of the happy surprise. after which the newly married were driven to the Santa Fe depot and left for the Grand Canyon. where they will spend their honeymoon and possi- bly, will journey to the brides former home in the east before returning
 The bride is one of the most cul- tured and charming young women in the city and during her two years residence here she has become widely acquainted through her work as well as socially. She is a graduate of the Emerson School of Oratory in Boston and for two years has been at the head of the department of eX- pression in the Arizona School of Music. where her capabilities have been fully demonstrated
 The groom is of the most esti- mabIe young men in the city. born and raised in Phoenix, the second son of MT. and Mrs. A. l.. Henshaw. one of the pioneer families of the valley He holds a responsible posi- tion with the reclamation service and is well known by all the young people of the city. The marriage was kept so close a secret that there was little opportunity to learn the plans of the young couple before their departure on their honeymoon. It is known that the bride has been talking of spending the summer at her former home in Massachusetts. and as her school year has just closed. it is not unlikely an extended trip is cOntem- plated

ARISTocRAcY OF LETTERS.

The school and the teacher have al ways been held in the highest esteem in China. Her only aristocracv has been an aristocracy, not of wealth, but of scholarship; her romance has been. not that of the poor boy who became rich, but of the poor boy who found a way to get an education and become dis tinguished in public service. Under the old system, if the son of a hard-work- ing family became noted for aptness in the village school. if the schOOlmaster marked him for a boy or unusual promise. the rest of the family. with a devotion beautiful to see. would sac rifice their own pleasure for his ad-

vancement He would be put into long robes and allowed to give himself up wholly to learning. while parents. brothers and sisters found inspiration for their own harder labors in the thought of the bright future that await ed him. The difficulty is that educa ton has been regarded as the rrivilege of d gifted few, not as the right of all In a land where scholarship has been held in such high favor. however, once let the school doors open to ev- erybody and there is little doubt that China will eventually acquire the strength more essential than armies or battleships: the power which only an educated common people can give Review of Reviews.

 The new program which was shown last night consists of an all feature bill. The music furnished by the Cur tis orchestra proves tO be the life of many pictures. Of the large crowd which was present last night. not one who came expecting to see a good up-to- date picture show performance left disappointed. for every picture shown could well be classed as a fea- ture for any house.
 Miss Boone continues tO carry off the honors with her beautiful voice. singing the illustrated song, the title being "The Ivy and the Oak" This being illustra ted with the most beautiful set of slides ever seen at the Savoy. The same pro- gram will be repeated tonight The picture program includes: Though Your Sins be as Scarlet" This illus trates a sermon in pictures that awak- ems the realization of higher pcssibii- ties and teaches a lesson through the eye to the mind that makes a lasting impression for good. Others are: 1.-TWO Heroes" a comedy protraying a story of the civil war. The music accom- panying this picture consists of all the national airs. making it very realistic as we'll as amusing.

brought her many praises. Since the date of her marriage to Mir Smith. not even her most intimate friends have had an inkling of the important step she has taken, and one of her friends said yesterday that it should never be said again that a woman can't keep a secret" Such important events are seldom kept secret and the skill displayed by the young people in keeping their own counsel is great ly admired by their friends.
 The couple divided last night, Mrs. Smith leaving for Morning Sun. Iowa, where she will visit her parents dur ing the summer, and Mir. Smith for San Diego It is his intention to open an office in southern California. The friends of the young people unite in wishing them every happiness.
