MEXICAN ATTACKS NIGHT OFFICER
 WITH KNIFE
Gid H. Thompson Shoots in Self De- fense and Wounds His Assailant Three Times Who Escapes and is Captured by Sheriff
 Patty.

The La Favorita saloon on Chase
 Creek, was the scene of a shooting
 and cutting affray Saturday morning
 July 20th, at 4 o'clock a. m. As a re-
 suit Night Officer Gid Thompson is
 carrying his shoulder in a sling hay
 ing received vicious slash with a
 large knife and Alfredo Ortiz, 2
 young Mexican aged 25, is nursing three gun shot wounds, one of them
 serious
 Officer Thompson answered a call to the La Favorita at an early hour Saturday morning and was requested to eject Ortiz from the place as he was acting in a boisterous- manner and apparently bent on making trou- ble. Thompson entered the place and approaching Ortiz, tapped him on the shoulder and told him to leave the saloon. For an answer the Mexican whipped out a long dagger and made a vicious lunge at the officer, strik- ing him on the left shoulder and cut ting long gash down the left arm. The officer backed away and as Ortiz was preparing to strike again with the knife, Thompson drew his gun and fired three shots at him. All three shots took effect. Two lodged in the left leg, inficting flesh wounds. The third struck Ortiz in the right arm, passing through the arm and lodging in the right lung. Simultane ously with the third shot Ortiz bounded through the door and jump ed into the subway and made his es- cape. A few minutes later Thompson the trouble to Sheriff Patty and at } o'clock Saturday morning he Sheriff started out to find the wounded man. Learning his idenity le went directly to his house.

ability of the amendments not being submitted because the election .is neither general nor regular is, there fore, so much expended atmosphere
 'The three amendments under dis cussion are the one providing for the recall of the judiciary, the particular clause in the constitution of Arizona that came under the particular dis pleasure of President Taft, which, oy way of comment, was the first bill in- troduced into the house at the first session The second proposition is that of Senator Worsley, which is in the form of a joint resolution provid- ing for submitting to the people an amendment allowing the state to en- gage in industrial pursuits; while the third is that enactment which allows cities of certain population to in crease their bonded indebtedness to an amount equal to fifteen per cent of the taxable values of the city
 Tn that connection Secretary of State Osborn said today that he would also put upon the ballot, unless en- joined by the courts, the two initiated matters he now has on file in his of flee, the Kinney bill, which is simply a law and not an amendment,and the woman suffrage, which is a proposed amendment to the constitution. MT. Osborn says The intention of the mi tiators of the Kinney bill is good as regards placing it before the people at the first possible opportunity after the filing of the same, while there can be no doubt that the women are sin cere in their desire to have their prop osition submitted. The fact that the petitions say at the next general cleo tion I do not consider as any more than a mere technical error, and not worthy of notice. To all intents and purposes as regards these two matters I shall consider the election general

WILL REMAIN IN OFFICE
 UNTIL l9l5
State Supreme Court Has Decided That Legislature Can Meet Le- galIy Any Time During The
 Next Two Years.

A great many people have been of the opinion that the present legis lature would go out of existence or the first of next year and that un less the Supreme Court decided in favor of general November cleo. tion, the various state institutions would be forced to suffer for lack ot money until 1915 when the next cleo tion could be held.
 This however does not seem to be the case, as, according to the decis- ion of the Supreme Court in the election case, rendered Monday, the present legislators hold in office "rln- til their successors are elected and qualified" which cannot be until the general election in 1915.
 Tn all probability Governor Hunt will call the legislature into session about November or December of this year The session in no way will be an extra one, but will convene as the regular second session an. will con- tinue for thirty days. After the con clusion of the session the solons can be reconvened in special session by the chief executive at any time he sees fit
 On many sides the fear has been expressed that the present legislature legally dies on the first of next year and that any acts they may pass af- ter that time will be held unconsti- tutional, if any person or corporation should desire to take the matter to the courts.
 In response to this argument it is pointed out that any contest as to the validity of a law passed by the present legislature after the close of the present year, must be based on the construction of the constitution ] that the highest conrt having a right to conStrue the constitution of this state is the Supreme Court of and that tribunal has al- ready held that the legislature could meet at any time until 1915, subject 10 a call of the governor

CHAMP CLARK MEN PROTEST AGAINST
 IVESLEADERSHIP
Champ Clark Supporters Also Protest Against Invitation Asking Ives to
 Attend Ratification Meeting.

PHOENIX, Arizona, July 12th, Champ Clark Supporters and friends of Senator Marcus A. Smith have en. tered a vigorous protest against the action of the committee on arrange mentS for the Wilson celebration to be held Saturday night in inviting Senator Eugene s. Ives of Tucson to deliver the principal address.
 Clark supporters charge Senator Ives with treachery for bolting his instructions while Mark Smiths friends say that he is trying to make use of his selection as Wilson's cam paign manager in Arizona as step ping stone to the senate in 1914, to succeed Smith.
 The Arizona Democrat voices it's protest against the invitation to Sen ator Ives in the following language:
 Tt was a gross breach of decency for the Wilson committee to ask Ives to speak at an Arizona ratifi- cation meeting Arizona is not par tial to traitors and the men who are responsible for that fragrant vio- lation of decency will ascertain their mistake before they die.''
 Several local democrats of promi- hence who are loyai to Smith have written Dr. Wilson, it is said, protest ing against the selection of Ives to lead the wilson -nSnC III ArlZOna, giving Senator Ives alleged sena- torial ambitions as a reason. They claim that his selection will bring about factional fights in the party. NOTICE OF PRIMARY ELECTION.

Complex Structure.

The smart hat, which at first glance
seems to be almost without trimming,
may on closer inspection prove to be
an exceedingly complex structure.
Among the decorations seen in the
new millinery are lines of silk and
other fabrics in the form of pipings or
cords, which, though most inconspicu-
GUS, are by no means easy to apply.
A cord formed of silk, shirred over
wire, makes smart finish for the
brim of hat, but it is one the anna
teur milliner or, in fact, the average
professional, is not likely to deal with
very successfully.

SHIRTWAISTS MANNISH IN CUT
Distinctive Feature of the New
Tailored Garment-Masculine Air
Is Feature Sought.

Smart and trim, and very mannish
in cut, are the new tailored shirtwaists.
Made of white linen on white China
silk of good weight, or white peau de
crepe, they are sall intended for the
tub, and have not a frill. A back yoke,
link cuffs and plain shirt sleeves are
the rule for these garments. The
yoke is an especially good feature, for
1t makes the shirt back almost proof
against clinging to the shoulders after
exercise on hot day. 1t is because
white is to be in unusual favor next
summer that these cool, plain waists
have been made, for anything white
may be built on more severe lines
than anything in colors..
"F'rills just naturally seem to hang
on pretty pink or blue dresses" an old
negro laundress once said, but a
white anything has to be just spick an
span, especially them waists that
looks like Miss Edith's brothers shirts.
They'll be wearing stiff bosoms next,
I reckon, a-trying to look like the
men,"
Although several years have passed
since the laundress. voiced her opin-
ion the stiff bosom has not been at
tempted, but on the models mention
ed there is little breast pocket for
the handkerchief, which imparts a
more masculine air to the garment.

~ T will take an expert in the matter
of laces to distinguish between
the linen cluny made by machin-
j cry and the handmade products.
Since the manufacture Of this and
other laces has been brought to such
perfection, there is no doubt that they
will be used in great quantities during
the coming season. The fashion of
wearing lingerie and linen dresses
over black silk slips or of sewing
bands of black under insertions of
lace, portends the popularity of cluny,
Irish (and other crocheted laces), and
much Val. Some of the patterns in
home crochet, and many of those in
cluny are about the most effective
and practical of all, for this purpose,
Carrickmacross and number of heavy
novelty laces are on the market for
use in linen dresses and suits.
Fine tucks and embroidery used in
the lighter weight dresses of linen or
lawn, make up the most elaborate de-
signs. Lace bands or motifs inserted
show the embroidery design carried
over them as well as over the body of
the dress, whether the fabric is sheer
or of heavier linen. Val. lace in.n mar
row edging serves to finish dresses
and blouses on which heavier laces
are used as insertions or overlays.
Real Irish crochet is still much used
and has durability to recommend it,

FloWery Decoration.

Lace collars which have been laid
aside for many years are almost price,
less now.
The wide shawl-like collars which
fall far over the shoulders and the
fichus of fine linen or net are much
In vogue.
The lace collars or fichus adorn any
dress and give a decidedly artistic
touch to the plain gown of velvet or
silk.
A large la France rose of pink satin
is worn where the collar fastens in
front.

as well as beauty. This is true Of
cluny also.
Although the side frill is not so big
as it was, it is not passe. In fancy
blouses of silk and chiffon small
frills, or rather wide, short ones, play
an important part. Frills to be worn
with tailored gowns are becoming
more full, forming a cascade below
the throat. Two blouses shown here
are characteristic of the seasons
styles. One shows the combination Of
linen, machine-made cluny lace, small
tucks and Val. lace, and the other de-
pends upon tiny tucks, in sheer
batiste, with little real Irish crochet
and narrow Val. Gor a finish) for its
success. 1t is one of the daintiest of
dainty model.
New blouses and dresses are being
made of fine cotton crepes. 1t may be
bought with embroidered edges in
flouncings just as Swiss, or voile, may
be. Then cotton crepes are not
starched or ironed, although their
lace trimmings must be smoothed or
pulled, when they are washed. Some
of the new crepes of this character
are very beautiful and dazzlingly
white. Other new tub weaves are
shown which require no starching or
ironing, among them a fabric called
native" is selling we'll.

Sash Pins Anain

Now that sashes are again in fash

seen for several years, are again ap-
pesring in the shops. These pins are
square, oval or round and are dainty
affairs of filigree metal with settings
of colored stones. The pin is placed
over the crossing of the ribbon sash,
the ribbon ends falling straight, one
above the other. over the skirt.

however, until about the middle Of

The beanfeast as such is not known
in America. Ii is complimentary
dinner usually given at some country
resort by generous employer to his
workmen. The latter. accompanied
by their families. are provided with
transportation to and from the scene
of the feast. and the affafr Is in
some respects a sort Of picnic or bar
becue. In many cases 1t is a regular
annual event. which provides an en-
joyable holiday in the country for
thousands Of wage earners.
But the beanfeast Is not exclusively
gathering in the country. Many
London hotels advertise at this time
Of year that they make a speciality
Of beanfeasts. The beanfeast has a
place In England which is as distinctly
its own as the clambake has I'm America.
But why ii Is called a beanfeast we
cannot undertake TO explain.

CHANGES IN TWENTY YEARS
Special Correspondence of The Star.


LONDON. May - 1917.
With the rise OF the radical element In
English politics OF late years a great
change has been effected in the manage
ment OF affairs. The amateur politician
has given way to the active statesman.
and dilettantism has been pushed aside
by those who enter politics with ideas
and not because they belong to county
families which have always been repre-.
scented in the councils OF the country. I
have seen much Of this change during
my time in England-the past twenty
years-family privilege giving way before
the earnest workers and the men OF ideas,
both social and commercial.
Years ago there was nothing Of which
a member of the cabinet knew less than
of the work Of the department of which
he was nominally supposed to be the
head. Today il ministers lack the
specialist knowledge they should have
1t Is through no fault Of their own. for
they are certainly showing a tendency to
try to acquire such knowledge.
The prime minister's chief duty outside
the house really is at all times to mix
with people Of intelligence and impor-
tanceI. e., people who have ideas and
knowledge. real leaders of this and other
countries. Mr.. Asquith admittedly tries
to do this, for he plays a far greater part
in the important part OF the social life OF
the country than any prime minister has
done since the days of Disraeli

WOULD NAME CHILD TITANIC.
Hungarian Father Forced to Change
His Plan, However.

Foreign Correspondence or The star.
VIENNA, May 20. 1912.
A baker on registering the birth OF his
daughter at Arad. in Hungary. Informed
the registrar that he intended to have her
christened Titanic, as she was born on
the day the White Star liner sank. The
Official however, refused to accept this
name, as it is not to be found in the
calendar of Roman Catholic saints days.
and the baker had to content himself with
the less topical name of Rosalia.
In this case the rule of the church.
which Is upheld by the state, saved the
child from bearing through life an appel
lation which is not only unsuitable, tn
say the least Of II. for a little girl. bur
would also recall for many years one OF
the most tragic disasters of modern time.
Sometimes, however, the rule operates
rather harshly. as when recently Wen
nese was not allowed TO have his child
christened Daisy, after her mother, who
is an American woman.
