WAGON ROAD ID HASSAYAMPA
 SURVEYED
Estimated Cost Would Be About 5000 For
 All Work
(Fom Thursdays Daily)

County Surveyor ". II. Merit, has compiled his data for the projected wagon road down the Hassayampa from the old Meseal mill ,o the Climax mining camp, and submitted the same to ihe board of supervisors. after making a survey and estimating the cost of con struction.
 The sum required is under 5000 for the four and one half miles. A grade of not to exceed six per cent will be required. and one of the favorable conditions ,n maintaining the road after it is built. is that it will be above the high water mark. The road will have a width of ten feet. and soil conditions arc favor able for maintaining the highway under nominal outlay in the future. This road. if built. would aid many mining camps that arc handicapped under the conditions prcvailing,and is especially to be considered in the future of the Climax. which is said to be pre- pairing to install new plant and start up on larger scale than ever before. One California owner of a group in that section, also writes that with wagon road built. he will revive his camp and place sev- eral miners ai work.

(From TAsssaay's naay.)

Al the residence of Mir. and Mrs. H. F. Ahlrich, near the old brick making plant to the west of this city about two miles distant, one of the most remarkable cases of animal affinity ever known is in evidence, in which a female shepherd dog is fulfilling the duties of foster mother for three little pigs, with all the affection and carnestncss as if they were her offspring This extraordinary situation has attracted the attention of many visitors to the above home, and has excited much curiosity as we'll has it created inter est that is without any parallel SO far as it is able to learn among the dumb race.
 In speaking of the alliance that has taken place in this freakish combination of the swine and the canine, Mir. Ahlrich stated yesterday that the little pigs were brought home last Saturday by his son, Wayne. from a ncighbor's place after they had been deserted by their mother The boy stated that the pigs were hungry, and his only motive was to feed them milk or any food they nigh, be able to de- vour His spirit was kindly one. and the little fellows attracted his attention by their smallpcss, and were SO cunning" as he expressed il.

 To add to their surprise, after the dog had left the enclosure, the little pigs began to squcaI pitcousiy and did not desist until the dog had again entered the pen. This reia- tionship has continued from the first day up to yesterday morning when Mir. Ahlrich left his home to attend to his duties in the pattern shop of the Prescott Iron Works.
 He says the dog is a thorough bred, and her registered name is Fay" Since assuming charge of her new family she appears to have changed in disposition. After she enters the place where the pigs are enclosed. no one will be permitted to molest her. But after she jumps over the fence, she is as doeile as ever.
 Mir. Ahlrich extends an invitation to anyone in the city to visit him home, when they will behold an attachment in animal life that will be amusing as we'll as interesting.

DEPARTMENT
 ROW CAUSES INQUIRY

WASHINGTON, D. C.. July 3.-A row of over one years standing in the United States treasury depart. ment was eliminated today by the resignation of Assistant Secretary of the Treasury A. Piatt Andrew and its acceptance by the president. The letter of resignation was read in the House by Representative Cox of Ohio, who then introduced a resoiu- ton asking an investigation of Sec rctary MaeVcagh's administration. The resolution declared that the energetic young men of the depart Inent arc "hampered and discouraged at every turn by MacVeagh's idiosyncrasies, his astounding cA- pacity for procrastination. ineapacity for decision, peculiar moods of sus picion, an aversion to which he is constantly subject"
 In his resignation. Andrew told President Taft. Lee MeClung. United States treasurer, and Lawrence Mur- ray, comptroller of the currency and other high treasury officials that they are practically unable to trans act business in the office because of MacVeagh's moods, which would seem incxplicable in a man of normal mind.'
 Andrew told the president that (. D. Norton. his predecessor and later private secretary to the prcsi. dent. (. D Hilles. once also in the same position and now private sec retary to Taft had to undergo the same conditions as imposed upon him.

Foolish Phrases

From the Boston Herald.
 Or was Who Kissed Henrietta?" only one of many queer street cries that are spoken and heard for a season? Who first shouted, "Ah, there' expectant of the answer, Stay there!"? In London the foolish cry. "How's your poor feet? was long in fashion. It was first heard, they say, about 1862. When Henry Is- wing revived "The Dead Heart" in 1890, some one wrote: When the play was brought out originally, where one of the characters say, My heart is dead, dead, dead' a voice from the gallery nearly broke up the drama with How are your poor feet2' The phrase lived" Now "The Dead Heart was first produced at the Adelph London, in 1859, so the phrase must have been heard before 1862 if this story be true. Precision in such cases is suspicious. When a man tells you he will repay a slight loan next Wednesday in front of the Park Street church at II :30 a. m.-"I may be few minutes late"-you know full well that you will see his face no more. Others say: Flows your poor feet?' dates from the exhibi- ton of 1851
 Or take the Parisan cry, "Ohe Lam bert! As-tu vu Lambert?" The wise men will tell you that aon August 15, 1864 a woman from the country, arriving for the Napoleon festival, lost her husband Lambert at the railway station and went about Paris bawling for him. Is the story credible?

Where Is Christabel2

From the New York Evening Post.
 English suffragettes are enjoying the predicament into which a guileless cub reporter has been thrust by a guiefu ed- itor. The cub, who has recently been annexed to the staff of an illustrated half penny newspaper, was given as an assignment, Find Miss Pankhurst" and confdlngly sallied forth. After long and vain endeavor he thought to mitigate his troubles and assuage his editors thirst for information by recourse to well known suffragette, to whom he thus wrote:
 You will see by my card that I am a newspaper man who is anxious to know if you happen to know if Miss Christabel PanlShurst is staying at your house. or in this nelghborhood My editor wired me stating she is in the county. and l have been through 1t all. but find no trace of her up to now"
 It is said that the servants of members of the W. S. P r., the Pankhurst mil itant organization. having grown weary of replying to the inquiry. ''Is any one of the name of Bankhurst staying here?" have become ministerial in phraseology. The reply Is in the negative,' they say haughtily.
 w. S. P. Y. members say that they have discovered one infallible sign for detecting a detective-his supreme effort no! to look like a detective-and popular diversion at ". s. P. T.. gatherings is pick the detective" They are in stalls and in the press box, and they hover about the exits.
 London newspapers have sighted Miss Pankhurst in Massachusetts, in Brazil. in Margate. etc. Even a travelling. lec- turing Pankhurst. the suffragettes say, could not Ego the pace" ascrbed to her by those who would be pleased to see her.

Japanese Girl Visitors

From the New York Evening Post
 In October, 1871, an Imperial envoy was sent from Japan to Europe and America. 1t was the second of its kind, the first having been sent in 1860. A Japanese writer thus writes of the reception given that first envoy in America: Congress voted $SOO0 and resolved to treat the guests as state visitors. The news of the visitors soon spread far and wide to all the states through the smart medium of the newspapers. Here's funt'
 The retinue of the second envoy was not so great, but was composed of more distinguished personages, such veteran statesmen of the Meiji government and founders of New Japan as Prince Ito Marquis Okubo and Marquis Klbo being of the party. Vice ministers of various departments also accompanied the mis- sion. So too, did the Mayor of Tokio
 One of the most interesting features Of the personnel of the mission were five little Japanese girls sent along to ''prose- cute their studies and this was the first time in our history for sending ladies abroad" The ages of these ladies ranged from to 12 and they landed dressed in long sleeves and hakama. Their names were Misses Sutematesu, Yamakawa (now Baroness oyama), Shlgeko. Masuda (now Baroness Uryu), and Umeko Tsuda (now head of the Ioshi Elgaku Jiku), and they stayed in America 10 years. "Those innocent and sweet little girls to study in America are of interest in the hs- tory of the friendly relations between Japan and America" says the same Japanese writer
 As one result of familiarity with Amer ican ideals and institutions, Japan's edu- cational system was remodelled after the restoration. Japanese universities, mid dIa schools . and normal schools were re- made according to American pattern, and many Americans went to Japan to become prominently identified with the new school system.
