SCHOOL BONDS ARE IN DEMAND
Capital Already Seeking to Purchase $150,000 Issue of Mesa Union High School District Recently Voted

- Within twenty minutes after the last vote was counted last Saturday in the bond election, the board of education had been made definite proposition for the purchase of their bonds, which, according to one of the members, was very inviting. However, the matter will, of course, be placed in the hands of the county supervis- ors in the regular way.
 In the event that the bonds are sold at private sale, or in cases that there is no unforeseen hitch in the proceedings, Professor Robertson is of the opinion that work will actually commence between the first and fif- teenth of April. He further stated that he was of the opinion that the completely equipped buildings, in all their entirety. could be dedicated no later than Thanksgiving.
 The plan at the present time is to the effect that a greater portion of the buildings can be finished by the commencement of the next regular school year in September; however that is in case that everything goes along without hitch of any kind However, in the erection of such a set of buildings of such magnitude, it is only safe to say that an attempt 1 will be made to have two of the
 units ready for occupancy by the mid ; dle of next September.
 1 The work of erecting the grammar l school building, costing approximately
 s7O,00O, will be commenced in the neal future. This building is to be erected
 on East Main street, on what is known as the Lesueur addition g tract of 41a acres.
 The coming summer promises to be
 one of the greatest in the history ot Mesa. In the event that the present
 plans do not miscarry. it will mear
 the erection of structures costing no Hess than s400.O00 all of which vii
 be going on at one time. This vii evidently bring about an era of pros perity not attained nowhere else il this section, and will be one of tn, Igreatest strides ever taken in the his
 tory of the town.

MUSIC A REAL BENEFIT

He was a lover of music, who had just been to hear PGecini's Madame Butterfly" and he was eXpatiating upon it's beauties to an unresponsive friend whom he observed to yawn. The music lover was hurt. Look here, John," he protested, don't you think music is of some practical benefit in life
 "Oh, yes,' said the unresponsive one Why judging from the DOT traits l have seen of eminent musi- cians, especially pianists, l should say that music is great to keep the hair from falling out"

 The play is an adaptation to musi cal hits from "The Sorcerer" Pa tience," "Pinafore," and The Pirate of Penzance.''

TWO FLEETS SUGGESTED
TO BE EQUAL IN STRENGTH
Plans Under Way for Creation Of
Big Sea Force in the
Pacific.

Plans are under consideration for the
creation of two battleship fleets: one
for the Atlantic and one for the Pacific.
If this change Is made it will be de-
layed until next year after the Pana-
ma canal has been opened.
In connection with this change in
the organization of the fleet is a prop
osition for transferring the southern
drill grounds from Guantanamo. Cuba,
to Magdalena bay. on the Pacific coast.
In the opinion Of some Of the officers at
the Navy Department. the Atlantic
fleet Is becoming unwieldy. Especially
may this be true when the battleships
now under construction are placed In
commission.
Many officers advocate a disposition
of the ships Of the navy so as to main
tain two fleets OF equal strength in
the two oceans. II is insisted by some
on naval affairs that the
largest fleet should be maintained in
the Pacific ocean, as it Is apt to be
needed there before ii is in the Atlantic
ocean. The division of the Atlantic
fleet contemplates joint maneuvers OF
the combined fleets at least once q
year in Magdalena bay
An annual trip through the Panama
canal and into Magdalena bay. IT n
held, would make the service more at
tractive to enlisted men than the pro-
gram which has been followed in re-
cent years. 80,

WANTS U. S. CRATIC HEAD
CANAL OPENING PARADE
House Committee Acts on Secretary
Garrison's Suggestion of Honor
to American Ship.

That the honor of heading the process
sion of ships through the Panama canal
on its formal opening should belong to
an American vessel has been expressed
by the House committee on interstate
and foreign commerce. The committee
Thursday eliminated from Senator
Roots bill, already passed by the SEN
ate. the portion which prescribes that
the French steam launch Louise flying
the French flag. should lead the ships
1t retained, however, the provisions
for repairing the Louise and presenting
her to the French people as an appre-
citation of their part in cleaving the
isthmus. The launch was built in
France in 1885 and was used by the
French canal company and later by the
American builders.
Secretary Garrison wrote that the
proposal in the Senate bill to put the
Louise in the place of honor had not
been called to his attention.
II feel that the honor OF being the
first vessel through the canal should
be accorded to United States vessel
flying the United States flag" wrote
Secretary Garrison, and that the honor
of the first place to the Louise is un-
necessary and would not meet with
general approval i feel that the
United States is entitled to any honor
that may attach to the first passage of
the canal in view of the fact that the
United States has spent millions Of dol
lars in connection with this work and
has finally completed the undertaking"
