LONDON'S MlNERAlIZED AIR.

London. England. has the reputa- ton of being a very soOty place. The air of Pittsburg is probably dirtier, and perhaps also that of a few other manufacturing cities. but London's atmosphere is certainly well up in the list of richly mineraliZed airs It is something of surprise, therefore. to find that the London air in the city area deposits only about ten grains of dust and soot per square yard per day. Two ordinary five grain gelatine capsules would thus contain the entire deposit of a full twenty-four hours over surface of nine square feet.
 These figures were obtained re- gently by the London Lancet. Four so-c1lled gauges were set up in diff ferent parts of London. Each gauge presented a surface of four square feet to the air and the deposit upon this surface was at stated intervals carefully gathered up and weighed The gauge in the city area. of course. gave the largest record. The Lancet calculated that at the deposit rate in this region there would fall every year upon the entire IF square miles of surface in London about 76,-

Professor Johnes Takes Charge o' Team; Plenty Of Talent; Lineup
 Still Dark Secret

The baseball teams of the Phoenix and Tempe high schools will meet for the second time this season, at Eastlakc park tomorrow afternoon. The other game, which was played on the Tempe grounds. resulted in the close score of ? to in favor of Tempe. With the play on the PhOe- nix grounds tomorrow it is not i'm probable that the former score will be reversed.
 The Phoenix team is now in charge of Prof. Johncs, who coached the Phoenix boys through the successful seasons of 1908. 1909 and 1910 and he intends to see the present team started on the road to victory to- morrow.
 Nothing in the way of a lineup is yet obtainable. as MT. Johnes is not yet thoroughly acquainted with his men. Sixteen prospective big leaguers were digging up the practice lot yes terday afternoon and the new coach has full field to pick from.
 The other interscholastic league game for tomorrow will be between Mesa high and the Indians at Mesa.

PORTO RiCAN PROGRESS

Porto Rico has made the increase of one-siXth. F 3-l0 per cent of popula- ton in the past decade. running from 953.243 in 1899 to l.1lS.0l2 at the pres ent time says the Philadelphia Press. Most of the West Indian islands make a steady increase. decade by decade. and some of them. as the Barbadoes. are among the most denSely populated tracts l-Aown to man. but the gratifv- ing fact in regard to Porto Rico is the large relative incre lse made in its ur- ban population. This rose from l3S,- 703 in 1899 to 224,620 in 1910.
 Such an increase marks an advance in wealth an increase in capital and in the sStivity of trade. The island has made q great advance in the last 10 years. since the United States has offered it the benefit of a continental market. than it had made in half a century before under Spanish rule whose evils. neglect and corruption il would be difficult to state.

IN MIND
 B|G PARADE
Saturday Night Should Be An Occasion When Every Motor Car in the County Is Placed on Exhibition by Owners

Only today and tomorrow and tEen the big automobile parade in the evening followed by a festive dance on Central avenue in front of the Hotel Adams. The occasion is just for fun and should appeal to el crybody for it represents no fac tion. party or creed. nor does it celebrate any event that the most particular can take exception to. It is just to be doing.
 Prizes have been contributed as follows: Two inner tubes of any size by the Transcontinentai Auto Co: an auto clock by the Motor Sup ply Co: five gallon can of Monamo- bile oil by the Arizona Motor Co.,; one dozen dry cells by the Maricopa Electric Co: an inner shoe by the Standard Auto Co; ten gallons Of gasoline bv IT. A. Jones, the Five Points blacksmith; pair of automobile gloves by the Phoenix Auto Co: five gallons of lubricating oil by w. F. Bronk It is expected that other automobile dealers will offer prizes and others not in the automobile business may do so. Eight prizes are decided upon for machines be- side the prizes for the pushmobles.
 Nearly all the garages in the city are busying themselves in the dec orating of machines for the contest and many not in the business are similarly engaged. The prizes will go to whoever gets up the most at tractive decorations in whatever class he enters and the machines will be passed upon by a competent com mittec It is hoped that every car in the valley that can travel under it's own power, from motorcycle delivery or pushmobile to a traction engine. will get in the running. The freak cars should afford a lot of merriment and the citizen who stays indoors Saturday night will miss something he will later regret.
 And after the parade comes the big dance The streets have been cleaned and partly washed and by Saturday night will be in the best possible condition for the parade and the dancing.

 The presentation occurred in his of flee in the capitol building, where most of the donors had assembled. the spokesman being H. NJ. Lewis. In re- sponse to an appropriate speech by Mir. Lewis, MT.

The other side carries a golden Elks head. the clock with the hands pointing to the hour of II and a ruby setting at the top.
