 For some time past Roy Wheeler of this city has been engaged Tn building a motor boat, constructed or galvanized iron, with air tanks in bow and stern and propelled by a gasoline engine. Having completed his craft, he and B. Watson took 1t out for a trial trip. They started from the ferry and headed upstream, the machinery working perfectly and the boat doing all that had been ex' pected. Turning back they proceeded downstream and decided to stop al the reclamation service buildings and tried to land just above the big barge anchored near the pump.

ARIZONA HUSBANDS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR
 TIE VOLUNTARY ACTS OF THEIR WIVES
 50 THE SUPREME COURT SAYS IN DECISION
Highest Tribunal Holds With Lower Court of Maricopa
 County and Affrms Verdict of $6,5OO Judgment Against
 Laurabel Hageman for Slander of Miss Helen Wander does; Decision Makes This Case Very Interesting One

PHOENIX, Ariz. Feb. 21.-Women have their right in Arizona. There is 10 longer any doubt about it. No hus- band is responsible for the voluntary acts of his wife The supreme court has so decided.
 This rule was laid down by the court in upholding the superior court of Maricopa county in the suit of Helen Venerdoes versus Mrs. Laura bel Hageman. Miss Venderdoes re- ceives S65O0 for loss of hair, dignity and reputation.
 Miss Venderdoes was stenographer to George Hageman, Phoenix plumb CT. One day in June. 1912, Mrs. Haze man entered her husbands office and proceeded to assault his stenograph. er She pulled out Miss Venderdoes' hair and scratched her face, at the same time telling her what she thought of her, All this was alleged by Miss Venderdoes in her complaint and borne out by the evidence.
 Miss Venderdoes sued the Haze ihdiln loi @iVVVV tAShhpiaiy uohosNN and S5.0O0 special damages. A non suit was entered in the case of the husband, it being claimed that he was in no way responsible for the action of his wife. The non-suit was al lowed and jury gave Miss Vender does a verdict for s650O against Mrs Hageman alone. Mrs. Hageman ap pealed on the ground that the lower court had erred. She claimed that her husband was responsible because of the marital relation then existing In the meantime the couple had beer divorced.
 The decision of the supreme court was written by Justice Cunningham and concurred in by Justices Frank

 The CapertoSCairo railway, which will be the longest in the world, be- gins at Cairo. From there to Cape. town by what England calls the "All. Red Route" is 7.O7i miles. The con l tinent of Africa is only about 4.9OO miles long, but the railway does 8 good deal of winding about.

In part il says:

lin and Ross Tn part it says:
 Paragraph 3105 R. s. Arizona. 1901 gave married women of the age of eighteen years and upward the same legal rights as men of the age of 21 years and upward except the right to make contracts binding the common property of husband and wife and further says that she shall be sub ject to the same legal liabilities. Men are liable for their torts. there. fore married women are likewise Ii. able for their torts. If married men are legally liable for the voluntary torts of their wives, then such H. ability must rest upon the wife for the voluntary torts of her husband. This is absurd in view of the ex. pressed legislation upon the subject of women's right. We have no hesi- tancy in holding that the rule of the common law liability of the husband for the voluntary torts of the wife does not exist in Arizona"
 In regard to the decision of the low CT court the supreme court opinion states: "The ruling was just and wholly within the enlightened mod. ern view that should be taken of the effect of the married women's laws emancipating them from the common law of slavery"

A Staple Medicine
 for Every Family
No Self Respecting Group Of People Should be Without a Good
 Family Laxative.

It is inconceivable in this day of general intelligence that any family would be without simple remedy for the minor ills of life, for often by glv- ing such a remedy in time a serious disease can be frustrated and a life saved.
 For example. if at the first sign of a cold a simple laxative.tonic like pr. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin were given, the beginning of serious lung affec- ton or of a typhoid fever might be avoided And also in headaches, ner- vousness. etc. a small dose of this remedy would relieve the congestion and replace distress with comfort Mothers give 1t to tiny infants and little children. and grown people take 1t with equally good effect.
 Thousands of good American homes are never without it. among them the home of Mrs. c. A. Wright, 1881 Pasa- dena avenue. Long Beach. Cal. She had considerable trouble raising little Lawrence, three years old. but after regulating his bowels with small doses of pr. Caldwelrs Syrup Pepsin he be gan to thrive and she has had no further trouble with him. They use 1t generally in her home.

The assertion Of Carl F. Whitney, an assistant United States district at torney, that habitforming drugs are sold Tn New York in appalling quan. titles" brings to mind story which New York clergyman recently told his congregation. He was discoursing on the prevalence of the drug habit and the duty of the public to stop the evil traffic. His story has the addition al merit of being true. The principal was young woman, scarcely more than a girl. who lived with her par. ents mp the State. The couple were not endowed with an over abundance of worldly goods. They wished to put their daughter in a way to be self supporting after they were gone. So they mortgaged their little farm and with the proceeds sent the young woman to a hospital near New York to- learn to be a professional nurse There the girl fell in with an older nurse who was addicted to the CO., caine habit. The older woman would atlld lle elil Ao NtW lbIh lO pul |. chase the drug for her. Soon the girl succumbed to the temptations of the pleasure powder.' In a short time she was confirmed in the habit Word of her plight reached her aged par ents on their little farm up State They mortgaged their furniture and with the money sent the girl to ar | institution fof the treatment of those addicted to drink and drugs. The girl said the clergyman had a sincere de. sire to overcome the habit. But th' old craving woulde seize her and wheI 1t did she found no difficulty in ob taining the drug to satisfy it.

Another, though not SC creiitable a way to make money, has been recalled by the recent run on n savings bank in this city. Not so many years ago a JeY kept si little private bank in the Ghetto district down Houston street way The establishment was small, but the proprietor was known to be wealthy and his bank caught the say ings of a vast number of people liv. ing in the district About once a year, a few weeks before the date on which the interest on deposits became pay. able a rumor would be circulated in the neighborhood that would cause a run on the bank. The queue of men
 women and children awaiting their turn to withdraw their deposits would frequently extend half way around the block. Every depOsitor was invariably paid fin full as soon as the book was presented. A week or so later, wheT the rush had subsided and the banl stiH remained open, the majority Of the customers regained their conf
 dence and returned their money tC the bank It is not on record tha
 the banker himself was responsible for the periodical runs on his bank but 1t is certain that the system added to his yearly profits the severa
 thousand dollars that he would hav' to pay out in interest if the deposit
 ors had rot withdrawn their money.

 Some years ago a German immi grant landed in New York and looked about for promising business open ing. in which to invest the small cap. ital he had brought over with him. The sight of the brigaies of shop girls pouring cut Of the big stores in the vicinity, of Twentythird street, then the center Of the retail shopping district, suggested an idea to him. By inuiry he learned that a vast number Of the girls brought their noon day lunch and ate 1t in rooms provided for the purpose by the establishments in which they were employed. The German hired a store room in the neighborhcOd and opened a delicates sen shop. His place differed from tte ordinary shops of its kind in that it made a specially of selling food in small quantities. Customers were sup piled with a penny's worth of bread. butter, coffee. cookies. pickles, slices Of ham and other meats and a variety of other foodsuffs. The new system supplied a want, and therein was 10 be found the secret of it's success. Soon it was found necessary to en- large the establishment and scores of clerks were necessary to wait on the shop girls when they trooped in at noon each day. Bib restaurants and lunch rooms in the neighborhood failed. but the delicatessen shop kept by the former immigrant prospered Some years ago the proprietor re tired with a comfortable fortune that had come wholly from the pennies of the shop girls.
