Engagement Announced

Of interest is the announcement recently made in Los Angeles of the engagement of Miss Elizabeth Riordon, daughter of Mrs. D. M. Riordon, to Lieutenant William C. Whitener. No date has been set for the wedding, which will take place in the autumn. The Riordons are identified with the early history of Arizona, the family having lived in Flagstaff for many years and leading many of the movements that forged Arizona to the front. Mrs. Riordon passed considerable time abroad and her daughters were educated in Paris. Miss Elizabeth Riordon is quite we'll known here, where she visited her sister, Mrs. Jack Kenerly, who made this her home for several years.

The rate to Phoenix is reduced from fifty cents for ten words to twenty-five cents, and the night letter rate tor fifty words has been reduced to the ten word day rate. These rates went into effect July Ist and were voluntarily made by the company, which is a strong indication that the company wants to assist in boosting the southwest and give them all the advantages enjoyed in the east.

Cities are made by boosters who are not afraid to back their judgment with cash and improvements. Flagstaff has every advantage necessary and a few live ones at this stage of progress are needed to give the movement the right start. The few who are not able just now to make cash payments can easily arrange to make time payments as provided by the new law.

Titanic Figures.

Some idea of what the wrecked steam
er was can be gained from the figures
printed in a pamphlet issued by the
White Star company. They are:
Tonnage, registered, $4,000; tonnage,
SS2 #. in; breadth over all, 90 ft.
8 in; breadth over boat deck, "a #;
height from bottom of keel to boat
deck, 81 ft. 4 in; height from bottom
of keel to top of captain 's house, 105
TT. in; height of tunnels above cas-
ing, T2 ft.; height of tunnels above
boat deck, 81 ft. 6 in; distance from
top of funnel to keel, 175 it.; number
of steel decks, IL; number of water
tight bulkheads, 10; passengers car
ried, 2500; crew, $50.
The largest plates employed in the
hull were 36 feet long, weighting Az
tons each, and the largest steel beam
used 90 feet long, the weight of this
double beam being tons. The rudder,
operated electrically, weigh 100 tons,
the anchors 10 12 tons each, the center
(turbine) propeller % tons and each of
the two "wing' propellers 3S tons
each. The huge after "boss.arms,
from which were suspended the three
propeller shafts, tip the scales at 81 1-2
tons, and the forward "boss- -arms' at
45 tons. Each link in the anchor-chains
weighed 175 pounds. In the ship there
were 1000 sidelights and windows.
As already intImated, nothing was
left to chance in the construction
of the ship, and beside being the larg
est and heaviest vessel ever built, it
was also the strongest. The towering
hull was moulded to battle against the
seven seas, and boast, in each ship, the
presence of three million rivets (weigh-
ing about 1900 tons) holding together
the solid plates of steel. To insure
stability in binding the heavy plates in
the double bottom of each ship half a
million rivets, weighing about 27O tons,
were used.
The ship was four times as long as
the height of the famous Bunker Hill
Monument, and 1927 feet longer than
the height of the Washington Monu-
ment.

7RICKED BY FATE,
KOREAN IS DYING
OF WHITE PLAGUE
(From Wednesday IS Advertiser.)

Out of the benighted Orient came a
Korean lad three years ago hunting a
larger life, more beneficent civiliza-
tion and fuller sympathy with his as
pirations and ambitions. At this par
ticular hour he is sitting in his room in
ramshackle Korean hotel, in this city,
counting the last remnants of his
meager savings, and wondering how
much longer he can hold out against
the ravages of the disease which he
contracted here, and against the power
ty which bars him from the enjoyment
of the benefcent institutions of this
civilization,
Wong Guy came in here several
week. ago dying of tuberculosis from
Waianae plantation. He had worked as
long as his strength lasted and when his
heavy labor in the fields became impos-
sible he gathered up his belongings and
set out for Honolulu as a last hope.
In his dying condition he visited the
authorities, was referred to the day
camp, found it full and was referred to
the Leah Home, found it full, and set
out on a round of the charitable insti-
tutions and hospitals of the city. Ger
tain institutions make it their business
to report cases of tuberculosis but have
no means of caring for them; certain
others make n business of caring for
them but are overcrowded, so, as the
pilgrim from Waianae discovered, the
fitting thing for man to do when there
is no provision for his case is to GO
home and die. Wong Guy is not eer.
tain whether he is going to be evicted
and die of starvation in the streets OF
whether his affliction will be kind to
him and anticipate his starvation
Meanwhile he has retired in all decorum
to his room in the dingy hotel to watch
the workings of fate.

P|L|K|A POPS DER
PAMPERED POODLE O.
PRETTY PLUTOCRAT
(From Wednesdays Advertiser.)

(From Wednesdays Advertiser.)
"'My doggie hasn't been out of my
sight twenty-four hours for the last
two years, and he just could not live
without me,'' stormed Mrs. George Pull
man yesterday morning, when she found
that the Japanese poodle, she brought
from home would have to undergo four
months quarantine before being allow
ed to land in Honolulu.
Doctor Norgaard said that the dog
had been in San Francisco, there is
rabies IN San Francisco and in Homo
lulu there is quarantine on all dogs
from that infected port. 1t did not
matter that the Japanese poodle of
Mrs. Pullman had been in San Fran
cisco only couple of days, and dur
ing that time in her room at the Fair
mont, the law must be enforced and
the dog go to quarantine.
After using her persuasive powers
with the territorial officials, Mrs. Pull
man tried it on the agents of the Mat
son line and John Drew thought she
was right, but did not see how he could
prove it.
"My dog shall not go to that nasty
quarantine, he would ole without me
and could not get along without him
all that time. l shall have to remain
on the Wilhelmina ana take care of
the pet. | shall go to Hilo, and will
come back here and stay all the time
with my doggie. He needs attention
and he can not get along without me, "
continued the fair one without stop
ping to take breath.
From all accounts 1T appears that
this Japanese poodle is some dog. He
has his "bawthn every morning, his
teeth are brushed carefully, his toe
nails manicured and his glossy coat is
brushed with most expensive brushes
with solid silver mountings. The maid,
Celeste, attends to all these details as
well as to caring for madame's toilet,
SO she might appreciate short stay in
quarantine for the pampered pet.
At all accounts last night it appeared
that Mrs. Pullman was destined to
take up her abode permanently on the
Wllhelmina so as to be near her pet

PALMYRA ISLAND,
PART OF HAWAII

With the matters of state relating to
the diplomatic status of the little
coral speek in the Pacific known as
Palmyra Island finally settled and the
pOnderous wheels set in motion by the
controversy over it at rest, Wash
ington hastens to assure Hawaii that
it must now consider these specks
part of its territory.
Governor Frear received in yester-
days mail, letter from the depart
ment of the interior enclosing a letter
from the department of state. AS
result of the visit of the cruiser West
Virginia to Palmyra Islands, it was
recommended that in the administra-
tion of Hawaii all official acts should
recognize them as a part of the Terri
tory and that they hereafter appear on
all official maps.
The department of the interior also
requested a map of Palmyra Island for
the commissioner of the general land
office TO be used in making notations
on the maps of the United States, its
outlying territory and possessions as
well as on maps of Hawaii.
