Several of them. however, took care to notify the mayors of their arton- dissements the evening before They were. perhaps, the wisest, as the mayors. being polite and deferential to the fair sex by instinct and train ing, could not but make up their minds to give them satisfaction. and the employees received orders to inscrihe the feminine would be electors. Thus it happened that the ladies were well received at the Mairies of the first seventeenth. and nineteenths arrondisscments.
 In the first arrondissements the lady doctor. Madame Edward Pillet. vice president of the league. was the first to be inscribed.

 The increase in the Roosevelt lake is still considerable. and the great feature of the increase is that it is not being drawn upon for any purpose over 5000 more acre feet were added the night before last, and the same amount was added yesterday. over 100000 acre feet have been added since the rise began to come down about a week ago.

This year the gain is ali net and there is no chance for decrease The water is to De allowed to continue increasing until q record height has been reached.
 A movement is on foot already to begin exploiting the wonders of the Roosevelt lake region as a place for summer camping and a summer resort. The delights of boating and fishing there in the summer mornings and evenings and the chances for rambles over the mountains make it almost an ideal place. In the summer the lake is one great placid body of water, to be near which is to be cool and com fortable.

The mother superior of the convent in which she was brought up wins her back to rerunciation, and the philosopher wonders at the end whether their self-sacrifice may not be the worst selfishness.
 The time limit for Inscriptions on the electoral lists for the coming elections for parliament expired yes terday, and the employees at the twenty Mairies of Paris were not little surprised to see number of women who came to have their names registered on the books at the last minute.

Much Water Crashing Over Granite Reef Dam-The Verde Storage Committee Meets Saturday - Roose- welt Lake for Summer

The flood waters of the Verde are gradually subsiding, yet there are still many thousands of miners inches of water going to waste over the top of the Granite Reef diversion dam which. if stored, would be of incal
 culable benefit when the summer heat and dryness begin. Figures show that during the present flood season, the third of the year on the Verde. more water has rolled on it's way to the sea that has come down the Verde river than has been added to the stored water supply in the great water bank al Roosevelt. This would seem to indicate that the Verde is heavier regular carrier than the Salt

 Last night l met in a Montmartre cafe an old acquaintance whose name l do not know. We were both in love with the same woman As neither would yield to the other, and the lady would not choose, we de- cided to fight it out in the Spanish style. The woman was to direct the duel, and whoever won it was to win her too. We all three took a taxi and told the chauffeur to drive to the Qualifications. On the way we quarrelled and decided to fight it out on the spot. I don't remember very well what happened afterwards" I of the other duellist, who disap-

who is one of the strongest Democrats
in the big northwest district, charges
that Congressman Connolly promised to

In 1910, Rockefeller wss the Dem

that an agreement was made concern

Rockefeller claims to have in his pos
session letters in which Congressman
Connolly promised the naming of the
postmaster. These letters, however,
have never bsen made public For
some time Rockefeller has been openly
opposed to the re election of Connolly.
but in the last few days report was
circulated that Rockefeller had seen
the error of his way and returned to
the camp Of the Colby newspaper man.
Rockefeller denies this statement and
