A PORTRAIT OF PEPYS'S LADY My Wife Appeared as Pretty as Any
 of Them," Wrote the Diarist

When she first sailed into our ken she Was twenty years old Pepys married her at the early age of fif- teen. It was a pure love match. He was unsuccessful and unthrifty, and PepyS helped the whole family. so far as he could. Of Elizabeths early life we know little except that her Catholic friends tried to convert her. Of her married life before the diary begins. in 1860. we know nothing.
 She was eminently beautiful. Pepys assures us of this, and he was a con- noisseur. Nor was this a lovers il- fusion on his part. Years after his marriage when too much friction had set in between them, he reiterates his opinion. and notes with pride that she is not outshone by the great est beauties of the time: My wife, by my troth, appeared as pretty as any of them; I never thought so much before; and so did Talbot and w. Hewer, as they said. I heard. to one another The admiring husband does not attempt details, and per
 haps it is as well. In the likenesses
 that have come down to me we do
 not discern any singular charm; a
 forehead rather full and prominent,
 eyebrows gracefully arched, strongly
 marked nose. the mouth somewhat
 heavy, with lips, especially the upper, protruding.
 When one considers the frailties that resulted from Pepy's social re- lations. one is tempted to ask how Mrs. Pepys was affected in this re- gard. So far as we can judge, it was not an age of very nice morality. at any rate among the upper classes Wives as fair and respectable as Pepy's seem to have entertained the addresses of lovers more or less num- erous But l think we may assume that the lady we are concerned witt | was all that a wife should be. Pepys
 himself was undoubtedly of that op- inion. and he was an acute and a by no means partial judge.--North At !: :Iantic Review.

WHAT BOARD
 OF TRADE |S
 AND WILL BE
President John Dennett Reads His Report Before Members - Tells What Has Been Accomplished Is Optimistic

Full of optimism and good cheer, is the annual report of the president of the board of trade, read before the members Friday night by Dr. John Dennett retiring head of the Phoenix boost association. The report. which is lengthy, was crowded out of The Re publican's Saturday issue, and is here printed because of it's intense interest to all who have the work of the board for the welfare of Phoenix at heart.
 In reviewing the work of the board of trade for the past year three re- suits are especially noticeable; the work of the committee appointed to as- sist in securing the right of way for the new railroad into the city; the se- curing of the meeting of the next ses- sion of the American Mining congress for Phoenix, and the inception and pro- motion of Arizona Day, commemorate ing the fiftieth anniversary of the or ganization of Arizona as a territory. The meeting of the American Mining congress will be held early in the com ing winter, and will bring to our city probably some 500 to 800 of the most prominent mining engineers and opera tors of America. For the good work in securing this congress, Phoenix is in- debted to MT. George A. Olney and Col Epps Randolph and especially to the several mining companies throughout the state, who have guaranteed fund of S5,00O for the use of the congress.
 Throughout the year the board has persistently urged the employment of an expert in city planning and this subject has recently been brought to the attention of the new city commits sion. The board advocates the employ ment of competent expert who should come to Phoenix long enough to make thorough study of our municipal problems and submit plan which will provide for Phoenix adequate public improvements for a city of 75.000 in- habitants.
 Recently the mayor has endorsed the suggestion made some time ago by the board that Central avenue be lined with roses from the city to the canal. This would make drive of wonderful beau- ty, which should become as famous as the Cliff Drive or Shell Road of other cities.
 At the invitation of the board MT, George A. Bellamy. representing the play grounds association of America was visitor in Phoenix during March and addressed several meetings on the value of city planning and kindred top ics. As result of his visit a survey covering the recreational features will be- made. This information will, nc
