As you go by train westward from

line of tall towers leading Off to the
northwest
The towers are butt to hold the big

There was no especial problem in

Here was the need: there was the

However,
One never ceases to wonder not only
at the mysterious phenomena Of the
hidden power in electricity. but at the
possibility of conveying this tremen-

But why wonder?
Here is man Of wonderful power.
Where does he get 1t? Where is the
great dynamo with which he is con-

The power is not wholly in the man

Every man who has studied himself
we'll knows there is a power outside

more or less connected.
What is that power?
He does not know any more than he

IS CRIME CURABLE7

We have only recently learned that
drunkenness is disease-and durable
Is crime durable disease:
Can men who have offended against
the world be turned from their groSs"r
selves and made over into their better
selves:
Judge Lindsey, the Denver children s
Judge. says it may be done-if yon he
gin in time.
When he commits a bad boy to the
reform school he puts him on the
train. buys his ticket and sends the
boy alone to report to the school an,
thorities He puts the boy on honor,
asking only his personal pledge.
Out Of hundreds of such cases but
one boy has ever betrayed his trust.
But the older criminals? Can the
disease Of crime be cured when thu,
disease has grown to be chronic?
Governor Hunt thinks So
He Is governor of Arizona. and he
makes the same appeal to the Stun,
berins sense Of honor which Lindsey
makes to his boys. He believes that
the feeling Of honest manhood IL never
quite extiaguished in the human breast.
He trusts men.
Governor Hunt sends hardened Grim
thieves. burglars and murderers
on missions Of trust. He sends them
by train or on horseback over the
mountains. with money to pay their
expenses. hundreds of miles away.
Nobody watches them. All he exactS
is their word of honor that they will
do the errand and return. And
They do return,
Not one of these calloused prisoners
has ever broken his word to the COVER
nor.
He treats them as if they were hon
orable men He lets them see that he
believes they are not wholly bad He
banks on their sense Of honor, and
they regard their obligation as bind

He does not preach. ~.
He relies on manhood.
Aud somewhere down deep in some
corner Of their souls he finds the spot
where honor lives. -. ...~

CASAS GRANDES, Chih., July 30.- Federal forces attempting yesterday to hem in rebels between here and Juarez. suffered their first defeat Couriers coming overland from Oji- tos, fifty miles west of here. said the rebels who left here last week met and defeated the federals under Gen eral Jose Blanco
 General Blanco is said to have only 500 men, while the rebels numbered 1000. Messengers said Blancos forces wsre driven back toward the Sonora state line to join General San jines, who is advancing with the main body of federals. Particulars of the battle are lacking. Couriers left be fore organized investigation of losses was made. The lighting continued through yesterday, the federal re- treating under cover of the night
 II was reported to rebel leaders to- day that the main force of federals is moving from. the south and had reached Temosachic, thirty miles south Of Madeira. The federals were reported to number 2,000, seasoned regulars led joy Generals Rabagos and Telles. As the rebel garrison at Madeira numbers more than that, and as this town is practically evaeu- ated by the movement against Blan- co. it is probable the federals will enter this district without engage ment
 Eight hundred rebels are operating along the national railway between 'Juarez and Gallsgo. opposite this point. The Juarez garrison has been strengthened to 500 by movement of troops here yesterday. When the army led by Saniines has crossed the Chihuahua line, federal troops will outnumter largely the rebels in Chi huahua.
 Still another army of federals is moving along the national railway from the city of Chihuahua.

 A curious set of circumstances, that affected the sugar trade and de- ternined market boundaries, geo graphically. were disclosed by wit nesses who testified that freight rates to Missouri river territory from California points were lower than rates from California to Chicago, and that in the Colorado trade the reverse was true.
