Mexican FederalS
Have Lost as, 900

Astounding facts that secret
records on file at the ministry of
war show that 45, 900 federal
soldiers have been killed and
more than 85, 900 wounded in con-
ficts with rebels since President
Madero was driven from office,
was revealed recently by an at
tache of the government.
He stated that the majority Of
those killed were soldiers drafted
into the army and placed in the
advance guard in battles in order
that the trained troops might be
held in reserve.
No accurate figures for the
property loss in Mexico are avail
able but it is estimated at more
than $4,000, in the last nine
months. Losses indirectly due
to the revolution by paralysis of
business and depreciation of the
National currency swell this loss
to $500, 100000 according to fin
ancial experts. Americans have
been the heaviest losers as a re-
suit of the financial and indust-
rial stagnation.

to testimony meeting. An ex-
cellent meeting was enjoyed by
all. Next Monday the time will
be occupied with separate meet
ings for the boys and girls. A
lecture on Agriculture will be a
feature of the boys meeting.
A recent report tells of a SER
ious case of the ear ache. The
cause proved to be a spider in
the sufferers ear. The question
now propounded is, WAS the
spider after the brainy gossa-
mers already spun, or was he
hunting for an empty space to
spin a webb of his own?"
Our weekly lecture was filled
by Professor Crandell on We'd
nesday morning. He gave some
excellent points on music in gen
eral, also took up opera singing.
The talk touched especially Ital-
ian music referring to Verde as
type. Some of the modern
composers were also discussed.
American music is built on the
get rich plan" hence the hasty

ica has some good artists, how

Prohibition In State
Will be Voted Upon

Petitions were in circulation in
Tucson this week, which have for
their purpose the placing on the
ballot at the coming fall election
of a proposed law for prohibition
in Arizona.
1t was learned that the move
ment is statewide and that no
time will be lost in carrying the
petitions to other cities in the
state until a sufficient number of
signers have been secured to in
sure a prohibition election next
November.
The proposed law provides that
after it's enaction it shall be un-
lawful to manufacture or sell in
toxincating liquor in the state of
Arizona.
1t was further confirmed that
Eugene Chain, of Tucson, who
has been twice the candidate of
the Prohibition party for presi
dent, will be a candidate for

look is that the question of pro-
hibition will be a prominent issue
