In addition to the foregoing

GENERAL FUND:
The general fund items last year
amounted to S4S3,S3o, to which, il
Is estimated, should be added $780,
900 to close the fiscal year, June
so, 1915. The estimated general
fund expenses for the year 1915
10 are S556,Ie3 and for the period
1916 II, S565,So3.
1t is from the general fund that
the salaries and Office expenses OF
the various State Commissions are
paid. The estimated cost of each
is interesting, and it is as follows:
Arizona Corporation Commits
sion, S52,S 300.
This figure is made up of the
salaries of members, $4,000.
A Secretary to the Commission,
So, 500.
A Chief Clerk at 5000 month,
a Rate Clerk at $3.50 per month, a
Reporter at S2oo per month, and
an Expert Stenographer at SIoo
per month, and other clerks and
general expenses amount to SO, 500
per year, and a contingent expense
estimated at S25 1000 per year, to-
taling $50, 500.
The Arizona Historian gets a
salary of s2oo per month and in
clerks, Office expense and addi-
tional, 5000 per month. He is al
lowed an additional sum of 81 600
a year for travelling expenses in
connection with obtaining data
from the State and Congressional
Libraries.
1t is interesting to note that
such items of expense have been
in the appropriation bills OF the
Territory and State for the past
six years, during the time we have
had three Historians, and to date
there is compiled, and it is now
proposed to publish, two volumes
of Arizona history. In addition
to the foregoing estimated appro-
priations, there is pending in the
Legislature a bill to transfer to
the general fund of the State His
torian, $4,000 which was appro-
priated at the last Legislature for
the purpose of a copy of The
North American Indian" most
unusual work of art of great his
torical value.
The Arizona Horticultural Com
mission costs the State annually
$4,000.
The Arizona Pioneer Historical

Catholic papers throughout the United
States have given liberal space to the
same publication. The members of the
knights of Columbus in the United
States sympathize with Mr.. Toomey
in his position in attempting to please
all classes and it might be that In his
heart he had an ardent desire to help
the cause along without suspecting
that any one would call halt upon
his ambitions in a manner so severe
that it was necessary for him to make
such an apology. Anyway, Mr..
Toomey has published the advertise
ment and also the apology. The wide
circulation Of his paper, the admirable
manner in which the material is got
ten together, and the excellent mat
ter it contains, offer valuable me-
dunn in which to carry advertisements
and it is very certain that Mr..
Toomey's able though abject apol-

1.-THE DOG"

The discovery Of new property of
selenium has led to the invention of
a continuance which scientists are not
sure will be of any practical value.
The discovery is that the electrical
conductivity of selenium is affected by
light. The contrivance lisa small box
on three wheels propelled by motor.
The box has partition perpendicular
to the front and extending forward.
A light is placed in front of the box.
If the light is directly in front. then
its rays will be equally divided by the
partition. If it is on one side, then
more light will be on that side than
on the other. Within the box the
selenium is placed on both sides and
completes an electrical circuit. The
currents passing over this circuit reg
ulate the steering gear. If a stronger
current passes through one side, the
gear is so arranged as to turn the
cart in that direction. Hence all that
remains to be done after the motor is
started is to 60 before the cart with
a light in order to guide it. The in
ventor called his model 1.-THE Dog"
since it would follow him wherever he
went with light in his hand. Now,
who will make name for himself by
finding use for this curious toy?

IAN APOLOGY"


last issue of the Columbiad has out
done anything in the way of public
apology that has appeared in print in
recent times. 1t appears that the Col
umbiad carried an advertisement Of a
book rejecting upon the treatment &C.
corded Ireland for centuries by the
British government. The author of
the book in question is James X. Nc
CURE, formerly mayor Of Syracuse,
N. Y. Mr.. Mcclure is a vigorous
writer and uses forceful style with
telling effect. The list of facts pre-
sented and the proofs given have
aroused the ire of the loyal supporters
Of King George. The loyal supporters
of King George who have taken such
umbrage at the advertisement of Mr..
McGuire's book, which appeared in
the Columbiad, should certainly feel
satisfied at least with the apology that
was made by Mr.. Toomey. No doubt
after reciting their loyalty to Great
Britain and following up their declara-
ton of patriotism with a recital of the
offense given them by the facts pre-
sented by Mr.. MCGUIRE in his recent
work they decided that an apology was
due. The apology has been made and
made abjectly. There is no doubt,
however, that Nc. McGuires publica-
tion has received more valuable ad-
vertising through this incident than it
could possibly have received in any
advertisement which the publishers of
the book might insert for the purpose
of drawing attention to the publica-
tion. Whether or not the apology
asked from Mr.. Toomey had its incep-
ton in the minds of individual mem.

likely that it ever will be. 1t is easy
to understand why umbrage would be
taken by those of Pro-British senti.

reading few extracts from the book
itself, which we here insert:

Ships and Their Flags.

~-"E
We were afraid to do so BEFORE"
Ships and Their Flags.
Probably at no other time in the
history of the world has the flags of
nations been SO accurately and min.
utely studied as now, when so many
OF the great powers are at war. Neu-
trail ships arriving at United States
ports, report that outside the three
mile limit there are many ships cruis-
ing, or riding at anchor, waiting for
the opportunity to capture or fire upon
the vessel of some other belligerent
nation.
The flags that a ship flies play an
important part, as will be seen from
the following:
A merchant ship flies several flags,
and there is system about the dis.
play of this bunting, which only as a
rule sailors or observant and expert
enced sea travellers know. 1t is the
national ensign which flies from a
staff at the stern which tells the ma
tionality Of ship. On a staff at the
bow is usually flown the jack of the
nation to which the ship belongs, but
the mariners glass always searches
for the flag at the stern when the ma
tionality Of the ship is sought. On
the foremost at the peak, the ship
carries the flag of the foreign nation
she is going to, but if she is going
to port of her own nation from a
foreign port she carries the flag of
the nation she is leaving behind. On
the main mast the ship carries the
house flag or the flag of the line to
which she belongs, and on the after
main, If she has one, she flies flag
bearing her name.
In the matter of the use of false
flags, or the false use Of flags, it has
been said that it is a legitimate de-
ception to avoid capture; that is, it is
deception having the sanction of
long usage A historian, by name Nor.
timer Thomson, of Bath, N. Y, has
recalled that the United States war
ship Brooklyn, then wooden second
rater, flew the British ensign to dis
guise herself from the Spanish man.
of-war Numancia, then one of the most
powerful warships afloat. The facts
as he recalls them, are that after the
Virginius affair, the Virginius being a
filibuster steamer whose crew was
captured by the Spaniards and shot at
Santiago de Cuba, things looked war
like between the United States and
Spain. The old Brooklyn was at Colon
and set sail for New York. The Brook
Ign steamed along at perhaps eight
knots an hour. When she sailed from
Colon it seemed that war would be
declared by the United States. At sea,
the Brooklyn had no means of learn
ing what had happened since she left
Colon. Of Cape Mast Cuba, the
Brooklyn sighted large ship. which
she took for the Numancia, and which
proved to be that ship. The Brooklyn
ran up the British naval ensign; sig
nails passed between the two ships and
the Numancia changed her course and
disappeared. War had not been de-
clared between the United States and
Spain, and this precaution of the
Brooklyn on the sighting of the pow
erful Numancia was of course not
necessary.
ANY port in storm" and "any flag
to avoid capture" seem to be notices
with sea captains.
