the most wonderful monastery
of the Russian world. New
Athos, or Novy Atom, as the Russians
call it, is an establishment resemb-

seeking work is ever refused, not even
the criminal or the passportless tramp.
There all corners receive the monks
hospitality Of bed and board and worm
and money to take them home, or to
to take them further on their journey,
writes correspondent of Country Lite.
The monks own vast estates, where
they grow their own corn and cult
vate the vine and the olive. They
have orange and lemon woods. They
grind the corn in their mills and make
their own bread; they press the grape,
and the monastery tables tell how gen.
erous is the supply of wine. In Go

only does 1t furnish itself from its
own fields with bread and with wine,
but it has made itself almost indie
pendent OF the outside world. 1t
makes its own clothes from it's own

In the remote Caucasian district it is

PROHIBITION FORGED
 IT'S WAY INTO HOUSE

Phoenix, Ariz., April 22.-Prohibi tion-the one question above all oth CTS that members of the Legislature devoutly prayed would not be inject ed into the present session-forced it's way into the house this morning in bill introduced by MT. Jones of Mari copa, and from now on to the closing day will be the ghost of the feast. During the campaign the Maricopa delegates stated that they would take no stand upon the prohibition quest ion, calling attention of the people to the power of the initiative, with which they might force any legislation desir- ed, was in their hands. Many other members of the legislature took a sim liar stand during the campaign, and now that they are face to face with the question, they are in the position of the man who had a fast grip on the bears tail and wanted someone to help him to let go.
 MT. Jones in introducing the bill this morning stated that he did so by request and under pressure. ] had been in hopes that. the prohibition question would not be injected ill this session, and called the attention or the people who drew the bill to the fact that they had the power to ini tiate any legislation along prohibition lines. However, they informed me that as a member of this legislature I sr servant of the people, and realizing the truth of the assertion, I could not refuse when they demanded that I introduce the bill."
 The bill in question bears the tltlo of House Bill 119, and was drawn by the superintendent of the anti,saloo' 'eague It provides for the repeal of the segregation law and further pro vides for county option. This means the present law which provides tha. any incorporated town may remain ir county election even if the balance of the county goes dry, is done away with, as the majority vote Of the coun " must prevail. For instance in the prohibition election held in Maricopf some time ago, Phoenix would Eavf been dry by the balance of the com ty, even though the residents of the city showed by their ballots that they were opposed to prohibition.

GOVERNOR WOODROW
 WILSON IS GAINING
THE TAG END CANDIDATE IS NOT so VERY FAR BEHIND IF SEN. ATORS COUNT.

Los Angeles, April 23.-The latest poll of the democratic situation lends hope to the Woodrow Wilson support CTS. So far 16 democratic senators have announced themselves in favor of the nomination of Governor Wood row Wilson for president The list includes Hoke Smith, of Georgia; G. Gardner, of Maine; John Sharp Willi. ans, of Mississippi; Maritime, of New Jersey; Lea, of Tennessee; O'Gorman of New York; Bryan, of Florida; Da- wis, of Arkansas; Gore, of Oklahoma i; Overman, of North Carolina; Cham berlain, of Oregon; Newlands, of Ne vada; Culberson, of Texas; Smith of South Carolina, and Myers, of Mon tana. Probably six or seven other democratic senators favor the New Jersey governor and will announce their support within a short time.
 A glance at the list shows that prac- tically every progressive democrat in the senate Gas we'll as some not so pro- gressive), favors Wilson. He has more support in the senate than all the other democratic aspirants put to- gether.
