 GREATER COOPERATION
Supervisor of Irrigation Outlines Sec retary's Plans for M. and O. Men
 Working Together

Following is a letter received from Irrigation Supervisor O'Donnell yester- day. It is self explanatory:
 Billings, Mont, March "A, 1914. From Supervisor of Irrigation To all operation and maintenance en-
 ployees.
 Subject-Personnel organization.
 1. Following up the policy of em- ploying water users on operation and maintenance work your attention is called to the wisdom of the secretary S policy in this connection.
 ?. The knowledge gained by the wa ter users acting in any capacities in the operation and maintainance work is a direct gain and will equip such water users for responsible positions when ir- rigation works are finally turned over to the water users.
 3. It is believed that the spirit of cooperation between the service and the water users will grow in proportion to the measure in which the services oi the water users are utilized. Lack oi knowledge of what is being done by the service tends to make the water users suspicious and not cooperative. 4. The water users associations vii assume responsibility in the way oi recommending water users for posi-. tions in the service and they will be interested in the success of the mer they recommend.
 5. The interest of the water users associations in the personnel matters should not be considered by civil ser vice employees as an unfavorable con- dition. To the contrary this interest should have salutory effect on the operation and maintainence organiza tions and incite effort on the part ot every employee to make good with tho water users as a whole and thereby | justify his retention as a civil service employee.
 6. The following suggestions ar, | made for the guidance of operation and maintainence employees in all ca, pacities:
 (a) Uniform courtesy is necessary il all places and at all times. b) Strict impartiality must mari dealings with all water users. Co Full cooperation with both wa. ter users and fellow operation ant maintainence workers is expected O every man.
 td) The demand for competent mel of administrative ability in operation | and maintainence work continues il excess of the supply available.

GARRETT WILL MAKE

G. E. Garrett, the Marathon piano player" who is in the city in the in- terests of the RedeWill Music com- pany, is perhaps one of the best known musicians in the country His speciality is long distance" endurance piano playing, and for this city he has arranged to play continuously for eighteen hours. A novel finish for his performance has been arranged In cooperation with Manager Reeves of the Coliseum, the Redewill Music company has arranged to have him finish his work on the Coliseum stage. The piano will be moved from the Redewill store, loaded on the hauling van and hauled to the Coli scum, where it will be unloaded, car ried onto the stage, and Garrett will be kept playing all the time this in- teresting operation is going on An nouncement is made that the last fif- teen minutes of his performance will be on the Coliseum stage, in full view of the audience, and the opportunity thus afforded those who cannot see him during the long grind of the day to finish his remarkable feat, and to all to at least see one of the most talked of performers before the public today. No doubt many will be on hand this evening at the playhouse to give Garrett "the glad hand when he successfully terminates one of the greatest strains that can be under taken by piano player

 FREES NEGROES
Two Girls Detained and Other Action May Fol lowISudden Change of At titude of Parents Who Swore to Warrants

Although county officials refuse to discuss just what steps will be taken, startling developments are expected in the case in which two cOlored families of Phoenix and four mem bers of the Nashville Students color ed minstrel troupe are involved. sudden change in attitude on the part of those who brought the com plaints against the minstrel players resulted in the case falling flat" yesterday morning before Justice in the case already have been placed under arrest as juvenile delinquents. Lewis Ford, George Mullin, Thomas Harrison and Coy Herndan, the min strel men, were arrested last week in Hayden, as they were playing in hand in front of the opera house. | The arrest of the four members of | the negro theatrical organization which was seen in Phoenix the pre- | vious week, resulted in a cancella- i tion of the Hayden date and almost wrecked the company.
 The men were arrested on the | complaint of the parents of Mamie i Turner and Mary Lee. colored who were said to be under Is years of
 age. It was alleged that they took the girls with them from Phoenix The parents and the girls told simi-
 lar stories to Sheriff Adams and they were repeated in the office of the
 prosecuting attorney.
 | Yesterday, when the case was call
 ed before Justice of Peace Johnstone, the complaining witnesses suffered woefully from lack of memory The
 girls, as well as their parents, testi-
 fled that they did not remember
 making any statements. Under the circumstances, Justice Johnstone had to dismiss the charges. The two girls
 were arrested soon after they left
 the justices office.
 The parents of one of these girls
 bothered me for "A hours before the
 warrants for the men were issued
 said Sheriff Adams. Finally, when
 the mothers and fathers of the girls
 repeated their stories in the prose-
 outing attorneys office, the warrants
 were issued. Yesterday, they seemed
 to have forgotten everything they ever said to use about the case.' That the law has been treated toe lightly by some one involved in the case is the outspoken opinion o
 county officials. However. it is pro- taEle that no action will be takeI until after the girls who are detained
 are thoroughly questioned

These pithy remarks were made by Frederic C. Bartlett the noted mural decorator and landscape painter in the course of an address on "Of What Use is the Artist to the Com munity in Which he Lives" before | the Womans Club yesterday after noon.
 The gathering, which was the larg- est of the season, had cause to dis countenance Mr Bartlett's statement | that it was far easier to paint, than l to talk about it, for his style was simple, informal and yet Illuminating | Contrary to the opinion of many that 1 the artist is of no use to the com- 1 munity, the speaker cited many in stances where the layman's eyes ! were opened to the beauty of nature by the influence of a picture
 He referred to the impressionist movement which started in Paris a
 few years ago and how a famous art collector had laughed at the purple
 COW and blue hay stack. AS an ex- pertinent the well known patron of
 art took a. group of canvasses and l IIldUe d Stuuy Oi tHeIl ana tlleTWdTQ declared he saw things he had never seen before and really began to en- | joy nature"
 | Color, vibration, life and beauty are
 given by the impressionists, the only
 painter who really speak the truth
 according to Mr Bartlett
 MT. Bartlett scored the artist who effects long hair, velvet coats and flowing scarfs.
 "The detective does not wear a uni
 form" he said. "A painter is an ar- tistic detective in the city in which
 he lives. To be a success he must | know his subject, he must mingle
 with people and understand condi-
 tons and this applies to the poet,
 and the dramatst as well as the painter. The artist and by artist I 1 mean the painter, sculptor, architect
 and musician is of real use to the
 community, a cog in the machinery
 and if only a small cog, necessary
 one to make a complete and perfect
 whole"
 This is Mr. Bartlett's first visit to Phoenix in thirteen years and he is wonderfully impressed with the i'm
 provements that have been made He is especially enthusiastic in his ad-

RUSH TO SECURE THE CROSS
Christmas Ceremonies That Mark the
Celebration in Russia and the
Balkan States.

The Russian Christmas falls on
January z. On that day ST. Petersburg
celebrates the birth of Christ by bless
ing the River Neva. A procession of
priests, followed by a huge crowd,
march to the river. the ice is broken,
and cross dipped in the water. In
spite of the intense cold, often many
degrees below zero, piously-inclined
persons rush into the river to battle
themselves in the sanctified water.
A similar Christmas ceremony is en-
acted in those Roumanian towns which
lie on the Danube, but in this case the
people are dressed to represent vari-
Gus biblical characters, such as Herod,
Pontius PLATE, ETC., and the cross is
not merely dipped, but flung into the
water. Then follows a terrific rush to
secure the blessed emblem-a rush so
fearful that often lives are lost, for it
is firmly believed that its possession
win bring the owner good fortune not
only for the year, but for the rest of
his life.
