 The air was full of rumOrs for a while as to what this joint committee would do, and all day Saturday ques- tions were asked about the ultimate outcome of the conference. However there was no fuss and no charges from either side. The conference committee met in each house and the possibility of finishing. The unanimous decision of the committee was that the code being the most important matter, it should have the first consideration and hence the following report was made.
 An unanimous agreement that the house and senate shall give precedence and right of way to code bills; that amendments emaninating from either house shall be transmitted as soon as possible to the other house.

 This will mean that the code will be completed before anything else is done It also means that the appropriations bill will wait day or two. It also means that the senate will have to take the appropriation bill or get none The house appropriations bill is in course of preparation now. It con tains a larger total amount than did the senate bill. This is awaited with interest because of the difference oi opinion between the two committees when the joint committee met. It is | quite possible however that there vii ! be no action by the house on the ap- propriations bill at all, and that it vii be allowed to go over in order that tn, governor may be within his origina | statement, that he would not call tn, legislature together again unless ther were some necessary appropriation i that had not been passed.

And this from d Bisbee periodical
 Big Gain Is Shown

school Census Marshal J G. Prit- chard last night announced that he had concluded his work in the Bisbee district and would this morning for ward his complete report to the county superintendent of schools.
 Tt shows 2617 children of school age in the district, more than 100 over the first estimate given for this year and more than 300 in excess of the census returns for the year 1912. a percentage of gain in population that meets with the most sanguine expec- tatiOns
 Census Marshal Pritchard late last week thought that 250O would cover the number of children of school age in the district. He had not then cov- cred all points in the district nor had he assembled his record cards. The latter proved a surprise to him in their number. while he had still fur ther surprise coming in the number of children found on his final round of the district the first days of this week. Until he counted his cards however, he had the impression that close around 2500 would cover the children of the district and considered this an excel lent showing as did others familiar with population of the district.
 The gain to beyond 260O is highly gratifying to all interested. It is the largest number of school children ever had in the district, from which it is fairly taken that the population of the district is at this time the greatest it has ever enjOyed.'

PHOENIX LEADS

That Is Conclusion That Must be Drawn From Comparison of School At tendance Here With That of Tucson

Phoenix has 1000 school children. Phoenix had last year but 4,100 school children Some fancy increase in kiddOs? What?
 Some folks say that Tucson is big ger than Phoenix. MebbesO. But if, as a Phoenix paper recently claimed one scholar means four adults. Phoenix has the old Pueblo beaten a mile. or else the southern city is mighty badly troubled with truants. The following is from a Tucson paper:
 The school census which has been just completed by Marshal John E. Magee reveals the fact that there are 3.S91 children of school age in District No l. embracing Tucson. There is a slight excess of girls over boys. A large number of the children attend private schools. The totals follow;
 Males, 1915; females 1.976; Total 3S91

TREATING SICK ELEPHANT.

A mustard plaster and dose of
gin and ginger comprise the cure for
elephantiae stomach aches in the
New York zoo. Elephants, especial
ly those lately arrived from the trop-
les, are liable to stomach ache of
nature sufficiently extreme to cause
them to roll ON the ground in agony
The external application of mustard
and internal application of gin and
ginger soon brought relief. In ap-
plying the mustard poultice a blan-
ket is wrapped around the body of
the PROSTATE animal, over the plas-
ter, and upon this two or three men
stamp so as to insure the close appli-
cation of the plaster. The ele-
plants, after one application, seem
to recognize its worth, and submit
to further treatment.

LESSER EVIL.

Even when there is an undercur-

humor flows smoothly. A man walk
ing along country road met peas
ant driving a wretched-looking dom
key, with load of turf that seemed
to tax the strength of the unfortu-
nate animal to its utmost.
SSWhy," said the man, '<you ought
to be taken up for cruelty to animals
for loading the ass so heavily as
that"
"Begorra, sir" said the peasant,

town to sell the turf, Ebegorra, if /
didn't do that I'd be took up for
cruelty to wife and six childer." >
