Action by the city council upon the
question of doing away with the tele.
phones In which nickel Is required
before the attention Of central Is OBJ.
tanned IL likely to be taken at the first
meeting after the council vacation.
Announcement was made by Aid.
Britten OF the 23d ward that he in.
tended to present ut the meeting an
ordinance compelling the telephone
company to remove wh0t are known
as "tick tick" phone boxes. His en-
nouncement followed the delivering
Of an opinion by Corporation Counsel
Sexton that such an ordinance could
be passed under the police powers Of
the city. An effort will be made to
have tho council take action upon the
ordinance without referring It to q
committee, several aldermen having
promised to support a motion for the
suspension of the rules for this pur.
pose.
1t Ia asserted by Aid. Britten that
the tick tick" telephones constitute
serious menace.
"The installing Of these devices
has deprived the persons In whose
homes they are Of protection to
which they are entitled against IRE
and robbers" he said. with these
devices at work 1t is impossible to
obtain the attention Of the telephone
operator until nickel has been de-
posted In the box. Every one who
Ia familiar with the nickel In the slot
telephones knows how often one finds
ones self without nickel.
"A mans home might be burned
down or he might be robbed and muir.
dered simply because he did not have
a coin OF the right size at the right
time. Another difficulty is that form
erly a person had to take chances
only because his telephone might be
out of order. Now the telephone itself
might be working. but the slot ma.
chine box device be out Of order"
Corporation Counsel Sexton gave
his opinion on the authority given the
telephone company to install the de-
vices on nickel telephones where the
money Is deposited before patron Is
able to get the operator at the re-
quest OF Aid. Charles M. Thomson.
Mr.. Sexton holds that the city can
regulate by It's police power In case
the services rendered Is unreasonable
or unfair.

GOVERNMENT COMES
 OUT IN GOOD SHAPE
Uncle Sam Will Lose Nothing Through Recent Order Made by Interior
 Department.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 13, 1911. (Spe-
 of the interior has decided that the homestead entryman subject to the Reclamation Act of June l.. 1902. may relinquish a part of his farm unit and have the payments which have been made on the part relinQuished credited on the charges against the retained part and further if the entrymen so desire thereafter, he may relinquish q part of the retained farm unit and have the charges paid credited on the part not relinquished. Under the Act of June 2. 1906. the minimum area Of q farm unit was 10 acres, and this is the minimum area to which the secre- tary may reduce the farm unit for any homestead entry.
 The land thus eliminated from the entry will be subject to the full pro rata construction charges by any sue ceeding entryman so that the govern ment will lose nothing through this ruling. The decision Of the department is of great importance to many sett- | lers on government irrigation projects. When the lands were opened the farm i units were fixed at 40 and so acres each. Experience has shown in num- l erouS instances that this area is too large for the man of moderate means who is unable 10 cultivate to advan- tage q farm Of this size and at the same time meet the charges for build ing, operation and maintenance. In irnfa Hl1lfi- ! vation of all land for which the gov i ernment has furnished a water sup ply. and to enable deserving settlers io retain q part of their present holdings which might otherwise be lost through | cancellation for non payment of charg- es. the Secretary has authorized such entryman 10 reduce the area Of their farms and will credit the amount paid | upon each farm unit to the area re- | tained by the entryman.

IMMIGRATION AND
 PUBLICITY BILL
At Recent Meeting of Development Board IL Was Decided to Present This Bill to First State
 Legislature.

At d recent meeting of the Arizona development board. composed of rep resentat!ves from Prescott. Tucson Florence, Nogales, Yuma, Williams. Wilcox. Parker, Glendale and PhOe- nix. among the subjects discussed was one looking to the establishment Of bureau Of immigration and publicity. 4 sample bill was read and approved by the board and the plan is to pre- sent this bill to the first legislature that convenes after Arizona becomes a state, asking il to establish this bureau as a part of the state govern ment. New Mexico. Washington, Ore gon and several other states have an immigration and publicity department and find them very useful in increas- ing the population and advertising the resources of the cOmmonwealths in question.
 A copy of the bill which received the approval of the board of develop ment is to be sent to each commercial organization in the territory and to each of the political candidates and ii is hoped that they will all become boosters for the bill.
 Two articles of the bill. which ex- plain the membership of the bureau and its duties. follow:
 ?. Said bureau shall consist of seven members; the governor shall be d member ex-officio and the other six members shall be appointed by the governor, by and with the advice and consent Of the senate. Of the appointed members, no two shall be residents Of the same county and not more than three shall be members of the same political party. They shall hold office for three years and until their successors are appointed and qualified. In case of any vacancy oc- curing among such commissioners. from death, resignation or other cause. the governor shall fill the same by appointment for the uneXpired portion of the term. The members shall serve without compensation. though they may be reimbursed for actual expenses incurred in attend ing meetings Of the board.
 2. The duties of such commission CTS shall be to prepare and dissemin- ate accurate information as to the soil, climate. minerals. resources, pro- auctions and business of Arizona, with special reference to its opportu- mites and advantages which it pre- sents to desirable immigration and for the investment of capital. They shall publish and distribute such pamphlets and documents and do such advertising and publicity work as. in their opinion, shall tend to in crease desirable immigration and pro- mote the development of the re- sources of the state of Arizona.

cards lying just where the players left

Interrupted game of hearts in fur

The tenants simply packed their
clothes and moved out without word
of explanation to anybody. and as they
didn't owe me a cent it wasn't my
place to run them down.
They had been playing on the din

about half finished. Four hands of
cards thrown down when the game

Why did they stop playing in such a

The Abuse of Bayonets.

A veteran soldier was talking about
bayonets.
: "A lot of unjust obloquy was heap
ed on our bayonet makers during the
Civil war" he said. The makers were
blamed for defects that were really
the faults OF Us soldiers.
Il saw some interesting bayonet
tests the other day that proved this.
First, in these tests. a lot of swords
and bayonets. and they came out in
superb condition. Then they were
put through the improper ordeal
that too many of us subjected them
during the war.
"A piece of bread was toasted on
fine bayonet, and then the hot steel
was thrust suddenly into cold water.
as often happened in the field on the
sudden appearance Of an officer. The
result was that the magnificent metal
became as brittle as glass. Dropped
on the floor. it broke into FIVE pieces.
Three tayonets were arranged in
triped shape and steak was cooked
under them. These bayonets cooled
slowly. and. when cold. they were as
soft as lead.
And for these things. in the Civil
war. many a bayonet makers name
was disgraced."

SACRED MOUNT OF ARAFAT
People Of Vicinity for Many Years
Considered Its Heights lmpos-
sible to Scale.

"Ararat is not mountain that is
climbed every day. or even every
year" says writer. Seventeen as
cents have been recorded. When
James Bryce, unaccompanied, made
his remarkable ascent in 1876 he was
told by every one whom he met in
the vicinity of the mountain that the
top had never been reached, and
what was more. 1t never could be.
Jinns and fiends and giants had pre-
vented the rascally Kurds from even
attempting to scale the terrible noun
tain. and since the ark grounded there
mortal man had not been allowed to
trespass on the sacred heights, he was
Informed.
Had not st. Hagop tried again and
again to reach the summit in order to
silence the skeptics about the ark, but
found himself each mornip- on wax
ing quietly deposited at the base.
whence he started? Finally an angel
presented him with piece of the ark
for his pains. but told him to cease
his attempts to reach the forbidden
ground
That was in the fourth century Of
our era, but the piece of the ark is
still to be seen at the monastery of
the Echmiedzin, where dwells the
catholicos of the Armenian church.
That Russians or stray lone Eng
lfshman had really reached the top
OF Ararat was not to be thought Of"
