Through this assistance the factory
Is kept open sever days a week, and
the output has substantially increased.
At Vickers' huge works at Barrow-in-
Furness they have taken on 300 extra
women and are making arrangements
to accept 1000 more, but the smaller
factory at Firth is at present better
suited to the training Of the workers.
Serve Workers With Tea.
Lady Lawrence, whose husband,
Baron Lawrence, is on duty as captain
of a battalion in a Bedfordshire regi-
ment, has taken the initiative In form
ing the munition makers canteen com
mittee. which started its work in the
face Of violent opposition. The gently
born women who work in it are on
duty at Woolwich through the night
until early morning, their principal
purpose being to serve the men With
hot tea and coffee as they come from
h arsenal between 4 and 5 a. m. at
the end of the twelve hour shift. The
luOll( uOuScS \Sd1OOlES) are lluS uc-
prived of the company of hundreds Of
tired men who were accustomed to
stream through their doors every morn

Lady Lawrence was finally able to
persuade the war department to allow
her assistants acces behind the high
walls Of WoolWich arsenal, and the

cold, as 1t often is at that hour Of the
morning. They have to walk to the ar
scnal gates along a road unlighted by a
single lamp, as h authorities take no
chances Of Zeppelins discovering the
tory. Their personal protection from
cold and rain within the arsenal
grounds is an old stable near the gates
which has been turned over to them,
and one of their number has had a
small bed placed there where the wo-
men car rest who must come before
midnight in order to get the tea and

Copper a Large Item.
Copper enters so largely into the
manufacture of modern ammunition
that the action Of Great Britain and Of
France in using their fleets to prevent
any OF that metal reaching Germany
II Austria from abroad has had the
effect of putting these two countries
into the most desperate straits. In
fact, their entire system of defense is
endangered by their shortage of shells
n rifle cartridges, and while patriot
Ism may enable their people to hold
out against the starvation by which
they are mcnaced, it is by no means
impossible that Germany and Austria
may be compelled to sue for peace be-
fore next fall, because of a lack Of am
munition for their troops.
Taking the official figures as a basis
and the average daily expenditure of
rifle cartridges by the German and
Austro-Hungarian troops at 26,OOO.O 900
and the machine gun cartridges at 10
per cent more-that represents 31S

daily expenditure Of the German and

is at the very low figure Of 10000

It is a puzzler to know what to do to put water in the Lyman canal and on the bench. for the canal intake IS the reservoir gate that stands 20 feet above the river. Pumping and build ing a high diversion dam are both proposed. The chances are in favor of constructing a high, tight. earth di- version dam
 The fields of Hunt. the Meadows and St. Johns are all so wet and muddy that little can be done as yet, but as soon as they are dry enough much crop will be planted as the natural flow of the river, with last winters heavy snow fall will supply adequate water for this year.
 Many offers of relief have been received We need relief, but it is not immediate relief, for we have food in plenty and are able to tenn porarily care for those of our numbers who lost their homes. But, at the same time, many of our Spanish Americans whose homes were washed down were poor people and they need help to rebuild and refurnish. Our farmers were already in debt for the Lyman reservoir and dam and their only hope of ever paying out now lies in rebuilding the dam at an early date, and that will take at least a hundred thousand dollars capital. If it is not rebuilt, and that right away bankruptcy awaits the entire com munity Woodruff has food and cloth ing for immediate relief, but this is the eleventh time that those poor

opinion have so far developed in that body.
 But 1t is certain that the house will not have such clear sailing. There will be objections to many of the provisions and much time will certainly be consumed in debate, which, judging by the past perfor- manCes of the house, is likely to cover a vast range.
 It has been stated that the senate bill eliminates all buildings except one and that is a small dormitory for the northern normal The house bill makes provision for only three small buildings, one each at the uni versity, the Tempe Normal and the northern normal.
 The house bill cuts the annual ap- propria ton for free text books from $500,0O0 to $200.000 and also cuts out all appropriation for the Mesa ex- perimental farm. It is understood that there will be a strong fight in the house to put in that item The fair is $15,00G. Both bills. it is said, have "cut to the bone" the appropria.- tons for the various departments.
 What success will be made in the house toward increasing the appro- priation bill is uncertain but it is understood that it is the purpose of the senate to stand pat.

people have lost their diversion dam, and three times it has been because of our reservoir breaks. The people of Hunt need relief, for they were already heavily involved. and must go deeper in debt to rebuild their Udall dam. We need capital to as sist us in rebuilding. We must have it. We must find it, and then we can recover. Of diversity we of St. Johns have had more than our share, but no one is giving up. It only asks financial aid. and it is willing to re- pay that.

 Assistant director Van H Manning of Washington and Chief r. c. Cottrell of San Francisco did not go with the mine rescue car. but will leave shortly for their headquarters.

Guilty to Charce-Prisoner Con-
fesses All To Authorities.

his own confession head of a gang OF
bombmakers that sought to disable or

has told the story OF his life to Assist
ant United States District Attorney
Knox. Fay talked freely, fully and OF
his own yolition for five hours without
interruption. What he said was not
made public. but Mr.. Knox announced
that all Fay wanted to do now was to
plead guilty to the government
charges against him and go to jail.
p. ]. Mcdonald, a lawyer appointed
to represent Fay. sought to see ms
client in Mr.. knox's office, but railing,
served on Mr.. Knox notice OF his IN
ten to demur to the indictment. Fay
read the demurrer while the lawyer
waited outside. and. according to Mr..
Knox. said he did not wish to demur to
the indictment or to do anything else
but plead guilty and start at once to
serve his sentence.
Fay's long talk with Mr.. Knox was
upon his own solicitation and without
promise of immunity or l%eniency. The
statement which the prisoner dictated
carried him back to Germany. almost
to the date of his birth: covered the
high lights of his service in the Ger
man army, told in detail Of his alleged
mission to America, and recited his
movements and activities here.
Whether it was true in its essentials,
District Attorney Marshall said after
ward, has yet to be determined, but In
some respects it was verified by infoI-
nation the government had collected
from other sources.
