INJURY AT WILD ANIMAL SHOW A place of amusement known as the
 Hip pr+odrome'' has been maintained for some time in Kansas City, Mo. In connection herewith was a wild ami nal show there being cages installed along one side of the room containing dy named Miss Cushman, wearing on her head a red hat, went to after noon performance with a, view to going home with a Miss Rose, one of the ex- hibitors and trainers employed in con nectioE with the exhibition of the lions. She was admitted without having pur- chased a, ticket, for Miss Rose had left word with the doorkeeper to that ef- feet The show closed, Miss Rose giving the last performance, and the lions were returned to their several ages. The audience then wended it's way towards the exits but Miss Cush- man remained, waiting for Miss Rose to come back from the dressing room
 At some time during this wait four loneSSeS had been turned back from their cages into the arena. Probably attracted by the red hat Miss Cush- man wore, or because of some vicious propensity, one Of the lionesses reach ed through the bars of the arena and seized the young lady by the head and seriously lacerated her. She brought suit for $5,000, and the jury found for her in the sum of $3, 600. The Circuit Court of Appeals, Eighth cir cuit holds that while it is not unlaw- ful for person to keep wild beasts, though they may be such as are by ma tures fierce dangerous and ire c1aima ble, it is their duty to keep them in such manner as to absolutely pre- vent the occurrence of an injury to others through such vicious acts of the animals they are naturally in clined to commit. Miss Cushnan was not a trespasser. even though she bought no ticket, but was lawfully in the place with defendants consent, and defendant owed the same degree of care to protect her from injury as to other visitors. Judgment for plain tiff is affirmed. Parker vs. Cushman, 195 Federal Reporter, 715

Subsequently he received letter from the distil1ery which read as follows: Dear Sir: Hospitality is good The beverage refreshment has always been accepted the Symbol of Southern good cheer. Fine old whisky. temperately used soot1es and further recites that a, case of whisky has been sent to him, the price of which is $14.50, and states that in the event his wishes have been overstep- ped,- to drop them line and the ship ment will be brought back.

The Court Of Appeals of Georgia in Small Grain .Distilling Co Vs. Davis, "A Southeastern Reporter, S97, decides the '-case' and holds that there can be no\recovery, for the sale was contrary to the law of Georgia to sell whisky in the state, and since the company knew that it a violation Of law the loss of the whisky and val ue thereof was only what it justly de served.

Gigantic Irrigation Project.

President Earl B. Smith of the Yuma Valley Water Users Association has received from W.B. Raymond, of Los Angeles, a letter giving details of a plan for an irrigation scheme that for magnitude goes little beyond any that has ever before been proposed. The project includes eight great storage reservoirs on the Colorado, and it's tributaries that will hold practically all of the flood waters of this great stream and place the water under such perfect control that there will be no waste, and no silt to contend with. As an incidental there is to be an aggregation of power that is staggering. The project is to extend into Sonora and Lower California, and it is inferred that the recent visit of the Mexican Secretary of the Interior to Los Angeles had something to do with it. It is proposed to hold a convention in Phoenix or Yuma in the near future, to be composed of dele gates from all of the states along the big river including Sonora and Lower California, to formu- late plans for the great project.
 The estimated cost of the pro- ject is S73, 100000 and it is in tended to ask for this Sum-Yu- ma Sun.

Favor the Advisory Recall.

Carl Hayden, R. s. Fisher and Thos. E. Campbell, candidates on the democratic, progressive and republican tickets respect ively for congress, have each subscribed to the A d W sorry Recall.
 The Advisory Recall was pass ed at the last session of the state legislature and though not legally binding upon the candi- date, is morally so. The law provides that on each ballot and beneath the name of each candi- date shall be one of three things, either that he subscribes to the Advisory Recall, or that he does not subscribe to the Advisory Recall, or that the candidate is silent upon the Advisory Recall.
 The new law puts the candi- date on record as to what he will do in case of election and of his failing to satisfy the people of his district. Senators and con- greSSmen alike come under the new law and this fall will be the first time that the ballots will have the notations upon them.

Soldiers May Get Back Money Soon.

By the passage of the pension bill by the Senate yesterday which carries an appropriation of $15O,OOO, ,OOO and the accept ance of the House, of the Sen ate'S amendment as to the army pay, it will possibly be only a few days now until the U. $. Soldiers stationed at Yuma, as we'll as all over the U. S., will receive their pay for June and July.
 Practically all the regulars at army posts who in the United States are in the same boat. They have received no pay since June l
 This situation was caused by the delay in passing the general deficiency bill. The regular army appropriation had been exhaust ed in May and the War Depart ment was depending on the de- ficiency bill for more money.
 July payments really are avail able under the resolution of July 1, which extended last years ap- propriationS for another month, but disbursement of that was held up in the paymasters office with the hope that Congress soon would pass the regular bill. Sun.

Owing to some miscalculation in the date of it's passage, the automobile law, which was thought to go into effect last Thursday, will not go into effect until the 10th of September. Under the provisions of the law the licenses, number and seal are issued to the applicant own CT of the automobile. These are expected to reach Arizona in time for the opening date of the enforcement of the law and in sufficient numbers to satisfy the demand that will be made. The number of autos in the state is unknown but it will soon be found out when the licenses are all made out and sent.

more mature than the girl members
and to whom much OF the duty Of
counsel and guidance is entrusted.
The girls do not elect their guar

from the National headquarters, but
Of course their preferences are con-
suited. The society has ritual
which, borrows poetic and ethical
value from the ancient FIRE worship,
which probably all sections Of the
human race have practiced at one
time or another. In the directions
for the local camps these world-old
ceremonies reappear and no doubt
