COURTNEY PUT BAN
 ON VETERAN EIGHT Cornell's First Crew in Bad with Coach--Sharpe's
 New Duties

ITHACA. N. Y.. April 2-Cornell's veteran crew which has been rowing as the first combination to date. may not represent the university this year after all. Evidently Coach Chas. E Courtney is not pleased with the way the men are working out this year. It became known today that he has taksn the second combination to the training table and the first crew was not invited.
 For a couple of days he has been trying other men in the first varsity boat, and sometimes as many as five new men have appeared in the shell but his action today was a surprise.
 The Cornell athletic council has made Dr. A. A. Sharp, who recently was selected as head football coach, the coach of the basket ball team for next year. As Sharp will stay here permanently it was thought best to give him double duties. Coach Stern berg will not be asked to return.
 The council has also granted the varsity C. to the men on the recent hockey. wrestling. basketball and swiming teams.

ROUND ABOUT THE STATE
COUNTY ROADS ARE
 TERMED 0VtR-NAMED
Maricopa County Does Not Know by Which to Men

What is in a name?

W Hat iS HI q UHfnts
 Sometimes a good deal when there are four or five names to the same thing.
 For some reaaoson lost to history in the archives of antiquity no method was ever devised for the official nam. .ns of the country roads of Marieo, pa county says the Republican.
 This has led. is leading and will lead to endless confusion. Names are slapped on unonending highways re- sardless Of their fitness and only De- cause some one living thereon may fancy the application.
 His neighbor perhaps does not like the name for sour apples so he pro ceeds 10 attach another name. and so it goes down the line The people who live on the road knew where there homes are, presumably, but when directions are attempted by the city cousin who would go a-yisiting confusion worse confounded is sure to result.
 A street name in town stands for something. and the street stays put, but not so in the country So bad is this condition in some parts of the county that a movement is being dis cussed to get the matter properly be fore the board of supervisors and se- cure, if possible the naming in an of ficial manner of the well populated county highways.
 4 case in point is the rather im- portant and much travelled thorough fare running east and west between what are popularly known as the Mo Dowell road and the Osborn road West Of Central avenue this high way seems to be a nameless orphan. East of the avenue it is known as the Thomas road, Oleander avenue, Crme road. Pemberton road. Creign- ton road and Palm Lodge road with perhaps others more infrequently heard
 The only way a driver of delivery wagon from town or anyone else not perfectly familiar with the locality can tell where he is going is by daaWing a map of the contiguous scenery and having him learn the several names by which he may rec ognize the street aimed for. This per haps has an educational value if the victim could be induced to learn the spelling at the same time, but for the most part the game is not thought worth the candle. As for street car conductors their gray hairs are being brought in sorrow to the grave by reason 1of the scrambled condition of nomenclature.

Saved From DanerouS Op- eration-Neighbor Advised What to Do for Blad-
 der Trouble

I too, wish to add my testimonial to the thousands you do doubt have, and will tell you what your great medicine did for ne.
 Several months ago I was taken very sick with bladder trouble, had intense pains and suffered greatly. at times I could not stand on my feet or sit in a chair and often was forced to cry ont with pain.
 I consulted two doctors who gave me different kinds of medicine, which did me no good. It seemed as though the more of their medicine took the worse I became. The doctors seemed to be greatly puzzled over my case and after holding a consul tation, was told that I had a severe case of inflammation of the bladder and an operation was very necessary.
 l was being prepared to be taken 10 the hospital, wben a neighbor came to my house and said, Why don't you try a bottle of DT. Kilmer's Swamp-Root?" l was willing to try anythiDr sn Oe& relief from my suffer ings. My wife bought a bottle Of your medicine which I began taking and soon noticed a change for the better. I continued taking 1t and got better right along, my appetite re- turned and | was able to resume work.
 have used about fourteen bottles of Swamp-Root and know that had ] not taken it, I would have been op- erated on and perhaps never recov- cred never fail to tell my friends about Dr. Kilmor's Swamp-Root as know it will save many people from suffering and perhaps, as in my case dangerous operation. r Yours gratefully, SAMUEL WILSON, C51 Pierce St., N.

But under the state constitution all officers county and precinct are placed on salaries and the salaries for the Pinal county at the present rate will total about s42 900 for the year 1912.

HAS MYSTERY HOUSE
 AS HOME FOR YEARS

LONDON, March 3G-One of the most eccentric characters in London was pr. John Samuel Fhene, who died this week in his ninetieth year. He was reputed to be wealthy and the proprietor Of what is known as the mystery house" in Chelsea.
 The strange residence stands at Oakley street and Upper Chsyne row, Q big square building, with a front decorated in bizarre fashion. From sidewalk level to slooping roof it is a tumble of twisting columns and quaint, symbolic figures. There are cuddling cupids, ancient goddesses. mermaids, imps and other queer fig ures.
 Wife's Death Steps Building
 The story goes to say that Dr. Phene was reconstructing the house for his wife, but when she died he gave up the task.
 It is nearly thirty years since the house was occupied and twelve years since it was arranged in it's present style. The interior is as curious as it's exterior Many of the rooms are pillared and the ceilings gilded, fires coed and painted in gorgeous style, but all are in state Of dilapidation.
 A caretaker lives in the basement. but she says she never ventured into the upper chambers Of the mystery house."
 Around this silent, shuttered house is a large garden, four acres in ex- tent, decorated with scores Of statues and figures, many now broken and weather worn. which Dr. Phene col lected in his travels on the continent or from curiosity dealers.
 Lived Near By Like a Hermit
 The house is crowded with curios of all kinds. Dr. P1lene lived in house opposite, much the life of hermit, and nobody knows much about him

the sweeping extent OF the disaster
would be materially reduced.
This hope remains, though the late

The shock OF the later news was
made the more acute because during
