It is sure to be some novelty, and to attract a lot of at tention, for there are many pretty and many good babies, in Phoenix and if the tickets that have been reserved at the house is an indication, capacity will be the sign before the tots make their bow The baby show will also witness the last presentation of the present bill and Thursday will see the offering of a play that should find much favor here, for it is one of the best that Fritz Fields has written.

Last Days of Pompeii

Although George Kleine's photo drama production of "The Last Days of Pompeii' is more of an idylllc love story than a spectacular sight, theIe are nevertheless some keen thrills and awe inspiring moments. These are notable in the episodes in the arena when the mounted gladlators fight an din the scenes showing the terrible eruption of Mt. Vesuvius. The pandemonium following the eruption is marvellously illustrated and demonstrates wonderful stage craft "The Last Days of Pompeii

were made by means of

NEW SPECIFICATIONS
FOR HICKORY HANDLES

Through new specifications for AK,
sledge, adj, pick and other hickory
handles, the Panama canal authorities
have recently purchased large quanti-
ties of this class of material for one
fourth less than formerly paid, and at
the same time are getting just as ser
viceable stock.
The war department and the navy
department, as well as the Panama
canal commission, have adopted these
specifications, which were prepared by
the forest. service primarily for the
use of the various branches Of tho fed
eral government. Subsequently, how
ever, they have been approved by the
trade, both manufacturers and dealers,
and adopted by several RI the leading
railroads.
The new rules are the result Of
long study Of the subject, covering
exhaustive strength tests, investiga-
tions Of the growth Of hickory in the
woods, processes Of manufacture, and
market conditions, Under the new
specifications handles are selected ac-
cording TO weight, as influenced by
the density of the wood, and they now
include material which may be either
partly or wholly Of heartwood, known
generally as red hickory Red hickory
was formerly Disseminated against in
commercial grading, but II is now ac-
ceptcd, since it has been found that
weight for weight II is just as service
able as the white hickory. Handles
which contain small sound knots or
bird pecks. 30 located is not to b.
feet the strength, are also accepted.

Rumor That Judge Fish is to Go
TURKEYS APOLOGY
FOR SMYRNA

Coming from Turkish sources the
exlpanation that explosive shells were
fred at the Tennessee launch to warn
her away from a mine field may be
accepted with contemptuous polite
ness. OF course it is utterly incred-
ible, but it is perhaps the only shape
in which the Porte could put is dis
avowal, seeing that under existing cir
lcumstanees it is doubtless unable TO
punish properly the officers and men
Of the Smyrna batteries who are really
responsible.
The excuse may be good enough for
our Government to accept if accom-
panied by apologies and assurances
that the outrage will not be repeated
at Smyrna or anywhere else. Nobody
believes that the Government at Con-
stantinople had anything to do with
the act The Sultan or Enver Pasha
or whoever is running Turkish affairs
has trouble enough on his hands with
out hunting fresh quarrels.
The evident fact is that the firing on
the launch was an expression of unoffi-
cial fanaticism 1t was ordered, in all
probability, by no person in high au-
thority. 1t was spontaneous ebulli-
ton of ti-Christian or anti-foreign
passion on the part Of the soldiers who
worked the guns. The Turkish Gov
ernor, according to current reports,
endeavored to make some amends as
soon as he could, realizing no doubt
the dangerous possibilities of the sit
uation.
Captain Decker's fine distinction
that it was an unfriendly rather than
a hostile act may be taken as de-
scribing it if by "unfriendly" be under
stood the attitude of individuals while
hostility is limited to responsible
governmental activities. One thing is
plain and certain as the matter stands:
the Turkish Government is most anx-
ious to disavow all desire to offend the
United States. There is no reason
why its apologies, even though trans
parent, cannot be accepted.
They should be coupled, however,
with some sort of guarantees that no
more "unfriendly" demonstrations of
the sort will be made and some assur-
ances for the safety of United States
consular officials and citizens general
ly in Turkish territory.-N. Y. Sun.

REPORT ON YUKON RIVER
Flow Ranges From 10000 to 254,000
Cubic Feet of Water a Second

The Yukon River in Alaska is one
of the great rivers OF me North Amer.
lean continent. A brief report on the
discharge of Yukon River at Eagle
Alaska, by +. A. Porter and R. W.
Davenport, has just been issued by the
United States Geological Survey as
Water-Supply Paper 345-F. Probably
few people have an adequate concep-
ton Of the size of this river and char
acteristics Of its flow, A. H. Brooks,
of the Geological Survey, gives the
Yukon fifth place among the large
rivers in North America and estimates
its drainage area at about 100000
square miles. Its length, including
the Lewes and Teslin rivers, is given
in the report as 5000 miles. This
may be compared with 5000 miles for
the Mississippi and Missouri, 2,S6S
miles for the Mackenzie, 1000 for the
Colorado combined with Green River,
and 1900 for the Ohio combined with
the Allegheny.
The discharge of the Yukon varies
from q maximum Of 254 900 to a mini
mum of 10,100 cubic feet a second, or
an estimated average flow of 73,200
cubic feet. This is a relatively small
discharge, the average flow of the Mis-
sissippi being 695 900, that of the Ohio
100000, and that Of the Colorado
23,300 second-feet. The Nile, with a
drainage area of 100000 square
miles, has an average flow Of 10000
cubic feet a second, The flow Of the
Yukon is therefore relatively small as
related to its drainage area, and this
apparent anomaly is accounted for by
the fact that the interior of Alaska
has the small rainfall characteristic
of that portion Of the United States
which lies between the Sierra Nevada
and the Rocky Mountains, north Of
the latitude Of Salt Lake City"
Navigation on the Yukon has so i'm
portant bearing on transportation in
interior Alaska that it has given rise
to a general recognition of two
seasons-the "closed season." when
the Yukon is either filled with floating
ice or frozen over, and the "open sea-
son." The breakup Of the ice usually
occurs about the middle of May, after
which the river is open to transporta-
ton for five or six months, or little
longer. The breakup is not only an
event of great economic significance to
the inhabitants in the interior Of
Alaska, but it presents features Of
great dramatic interest as well. One
who has not witnessed it, according to
the authors Of the Survey report, can
hardly imagine the inpresiveness of
the spectacle. From bank to bank the
surface Of the river is solid mass Of

VERMONT SHOPS GET ORDER;
WAR SMELLS BUSINESS

Springfield, VT, Nov. 20.--Orders
for As lathes for the English machine
shops have been received by the Jones
& Lamson Machine company, This is
the first large foreign order received
since the war, though the company is
beginning to get back its foreign
trade, having recently shipped few
machines into Russia. When the war
was declared they were completing an
order for 80 machines for a. big auto
mobile factory in Mezzieres, France.
This order was cancelled and Mez-
zieres was one of the cities destroyed
by the Germans in their advance to-
ward Paris. The company have also
announced that until further notice the
shops will run on full time. For the
past three months their shops have
been running on half time, and some
times less, and the prospect Of win
ter on a short-time schedule was not
at all attractive.
The war has greatly increased the
business Of the John T. Slack corpora
ton, the largest shoddy mill in the
world, and they have been working a
large force day and night for the past
two months. They have just complet-
ed large contract of their product TO
be used in blankets for some of the
European armies which kept all hands
busy for six weeks
