FRANCE lEAD$
 AMERICA LAST
Germany Second in Aerial Arma- ment--Home of First Flying
 Machine lags in Rear.

Washington, D. c., Jan. lo.-- The United States, home of the first heavier than air flying ma chine, is far beyond other na- tions in military aviation. This is the assertion of Capt. Wash ington I. Chambers, United States navy, chief of the navy's aviation corps, an expert who is devoting his entire time to the science. He says:
 France Lads the world. in avi- ation, and all that she does IS worth doing. A short time ago, in response to an inquiry by the minister of war, over 5000 offl- cers signifled their desire to learn aerial navigation.
 "Germany leads in aero sta- lions, but is making great pro- Sress in aviation also.
 France has eight dirigiblcs, ,iermany 30. The number or aeroplanes actually possessed Dy each is rapidly increasing, put France will probably possess about $50 early in the new year, inc ultimate aim being to have 1000 as soon as the requisite number of pilots can be taught ,o use them.
 "lt is significant of German Foresight that one of the first steps undertaken when it was de- cided to construct a large aero nlane fleet was to found an aero dynamic laboratory. This Is at Goettingen, where the best known course of instruction in aero nautics is. ably conducted hH Prof. Prandel."
 France leads with a total ap- provriation of SG.400,00O to date and a popular subscription oi St.OOO, ,OOO. Germany is second with total appropriation "' st ,O0O. .0OO and popular stip- scription of s750 900. Nex* cones Russia, Great Britain, ltaly. "a- . an. an, then tne United >iai IS.

STREET DANCING IS
 ENJOYABLE ADOPTION
To Long List of Classy Entertain ments at State Fair; RedewilI
 Band Scores Great Hit.

Two thousand couples danced in Adams street last night to the music of Redewills National Guard band. It was the gayest street scene of any Arizona fair.
 From an improvised band stand near the center of the block. the band played it's full program and a lot of extras, and the big crowds damned the streets and sidewalks.
 For three hours there was no passing the block between Central and First avenues.
 A hundred boxes of floor wax rendered the asphalt as smooth as a floor. It was a most enjoyable event. All classes of people attended but so well managed was the dance there was not whit of rOWdyism. Dr. RedeWill deserves a great deal of congratulation on the success of the concert program, which made the street dance possible. The only sug- gestion of a criticism heard on the affair was that the dancers were not provided with masks and con fetti.

FORBES ADDRESSES
 FARMERS CONGRESS
At Annual Meeting of Dry Farming
 Congress in Tulsa.

R. H. Forbes, head of the state ex- perimental department at the Uni- versity of Arizona, passed through this city yesterday, enrOute to Tucson from the Dry Farming congress meetings held the early part of last week in TuI- sa, Oklahoma, and to which he was the Arizona delegate. He was glad to find himself back in the desert country of the southwest and away from the cold of the north.
 The congress was success so far as the actual work of the meetings were concerned. but the indictment weather put damper over the whole of the week, and the two snow storms put a blanket over that damper. It was Q most disappointing time as regards the weather conditions and the outside program. The inside program was carried off without flaw, and address es were delivered by all the national famous men in the dry farming world. Included in those who delivered speech PS were Dr. J. A. WidSOe, president of the congress and pr. Forbes himself.
 Dr. Forbes spoke on the dry farm ing conditions in Arizona, touching es peciaIly on the peculiar conditions in this state, and explaining the Arizona conditions. His address was teeming with local touches and processes, and was one of the few which raised much

BANDIT TAKEN
 BY HIS VICTIM
L. L. Steward of the Valley Bank, Robbed of Watch and Money, Turns Tables on Highwayman, Landing Him in City Jail

After being held up at the point of a gun. made to stop his automo- bile which he was driving north on Central avenue not far from the In dian school, deliver his watch and money. and then turn his machine around and bring the bandit to town, L. l.. Steward, exchange teller at the Valley bank, succeeded in oVerpoWer- ing his captOr, relieving him o1 ms revolver and landing him in the po- lice station. Upon the police plottef appears the name of Francisco Cota' who today will be formally charged with the crime, and upon whose per son was found Stewards watch and money.
 It was one of the most daring rob berries ever attempted in this city, and but for the fact that the revolver which Gotta carried was not loaded might have resulted more seriously. Of course Steward was not aware that the gun contained no cartridges, else he would not have brought his machine to a standstill at the com mand of Cota.
 When Gotta first appeared in the road He pointed IIc sun OIl SOliS ct Steward and commanded him to bring his machine to a standstill and then get out. Carefully watching Steward for a false move, Gotta com manded him to turn over his valu ables. Steward complied and eX- pected then to be allowed to pro- cced. Instead Gotta directed Steward to turn the machine about and carry him to town. ating himself at the side of Steward. Cota put the muzzle of the gun against his victims ab domen and directed him not to at tempt to give warning to other ma chimes that might pass.
 Arriving within the city limits, Steward watched his chance and when his machine was just under street light and about to pass a wag- Cn in which were two or three men, he slowed down his car as if to avoid other vehicles; and grappIed with the man. Instantly Gotta raised his gun, thrust the muzzle into Stewards open mouth as he was at tempting to give an outcry, and pulled the trigger. The hammer fell upon an empty chamber and then the fight was on. Evidently not under standing the nature of the affair. the men in the wagon at first gave no assistance, but later they came to stewards rescue and the man was oVerpoWcred. He was securely tied with ropes, his gun taken from him and quick trip made to the police station.

 The announcement of this advance and it's maXimumu amount, according to forest officers, works equally to the advantage of the seller and the pur- chaser. It allows the government to get the benefit of a rise in lumber prices, and it makes clear to the pur chaser not only that an advance may be made if conditions warrant, but just what the amount of that advance may be
