JUST HOW MUCH
 SHOULD WOMAN WEIGH
A Local Expert Places the Figur'
 at 125 Pounds

The correct weight for woman is one hundred and thirty five pounds, according to R. L. Board man, physical director of the Y. M. C. A.
 This question IS being agitated all over the country today as a result of a discussion held in New York recently where the problem of the fat woman is now calling for solution.
 The biggest affair that the suffra gists have undertaken in the metrop- olis Cf the United States promises to be a parade prior to the cleo ton. It has been suggested that women weighing more than one hum 1red and fifty pounds, who have political equality at heart and who desire to be in the parade be of fered the comfort of seats in ve- hicles.
 Tt will be safe enough to make the offer." said. one suffragette lead CT. '"The women weighing more than one hundred and fifty pounds will be ashamed to admit it, so they will all walk
 MT Boardman believes that will be a splendid way to sove the diff culty and at the same time holds out the encouragement that after the big feature the woman will be just that more attractive.'
 The why and wherefore of which is that the jaunt through the streets of New York will reduce the weight of the walkers,"

Stock Interests of Three Counties Combine to Ne gOtiate Settlement of Land Office Action Against Range Users

An attempt will be made to induce the department of justice to modify it's 1 order to United States Attorney Tom Flynn to proceed legally to eject stock men from the San Carlos strip, accord ing to advices received here yesterday. A conference of prominent Stockmen, involved in the impending suit, with Attorney H. NJ. Fennemore Of this city. it is understood, will have as a result, petition to the attorney general to withdraw.
 The general land office petittioned the secretary of the interior, to int/rest the department of justice in the move. It was fifteen years ago that the strip, comprising nine townships in the cor ners of Gila, Graham and Pima coun- ties was withdrawn from the San Car los Indian reserve, and thrown into the public domain, to be used for mineral purposes only. Little or no mineral de- velopment has been done, and at the present time, it is understood that no mining interests are concerned at all. Cattle and goats began to range the strip and now, the asSeSSable valuation of such stock amounts to from s100o00 10 SLJu,uUU. ne OWHeISIllD Ol ltllS stock is held by some big and many small stockmen.
 w. P. Pace and O. F. Webster were representing the stockmen in their ne- bitch of any note in the United States. winning two championships in Ameri- ca and with two to her credit in Can ada. over fifty silver cups and tro- phies have been captured by this cele- brated dog with large money prizes After being shown from Frisco to New York for years in the hottest kind of competition she stands ready today to defend her title against all corners.

Washington, Dec. S.-Secretary
Lansing announced that the Henry
Ford peace party members will not
be given passports to the belligerent
nations. but only to neutral states in

Lansing explained that no distinc-

United States citizens and that the.
general rule is being applied that
passports be issued only to persons
having urgent business in country
of the belligerents or persons invited
to visit them by some governmental
agency of those countries.
The ruling is generally interpreted
to mean the United States does not
regard unofficial peace missions by

Will Also Adhere to Treaty
Of London Against Sepa-
rate Peace.
WILL CLARITY SITUATION
Negotiations With Greece Like
Iy to End Satisfactorily to
Entente Allies.

London, Dec. 3.-Italy has an
nounced her adhesion to the treaty
of London, whereby the allies under
take not to conclude a separate
peace and also has declared her in
tention of sending help to the Ser.
bans.
This news, it is believed here, villa
go far to clear the situation, especi--
ally in Greece, where negotiations
are still proceeding on the quadruple
entente's request that Greece allow
the allies free use of her railways
and the right to police Greek waters,
against submarines.
Latest advices indicate that the
negotiations are likely to end in COM
plete satisfaction to the entente
powers. The assurance that Italy,
as well as Great Britain, France and
Russia, is to give military support
to the Serbians in their efforts to re-
regain their lost territory makes the
case for Greek assistance stronger.
Otherwise the situation in the
Balkans remains unchanged. The
Serbians still hold Monastir, but
their position is almost hopeless.
The Bulgarians have cut communica-
tions between Monastir and the
Greek frontier and the Serbians stll
there must, like the army of the
north, retreat into Albania when the
pressure becomes too strong.
There is report that the Russians
are marching through Rumania to
Bulgaria. This, however, lacks con-
firmation and such a move is hardly
likely unless Rumania gave her per-
mission, which would be tantamount
to joining the allies.
Another report credits the Rus
SLAMS with diverting their Bessara-
bisn army toward Galicia. where an
offensive is to be undertaken. This
likewise, is unconfrmed.
On the other fronts artillery bonn
bardments continue. The British
French and Belgian guns have been.
particularly active, as have airmen
in Flanders, and German positions
have been given a severe battering
Britt h monitors took part in these
operations, suggesting that this May
be the point where tie next offensive
will be undertaken.
There is still talk in the neutral
press about peace, based on reports
from Germany Of activity Of the So
cialists, and from Austria on dis
satisfaction there with alleged Ger
man attempts to take control Of the
internal administration. as has been
the case of military affairs. 1t is
considered significant that al the
new Austrans ministers are zen
with German leanings, which is
thought to mean that the German
party has been successful,
