SPRING TIME AND NATURE.

The vio'ets and they are with US
again, the delicate sweet scented
flower that is painted with the colors
of the blue sky-a symbol of inno-
cence and tender regard. The tulips
have lifted their heads to the skies
and drank of Springs nectar, the
foliage of the trees and the beautiful
colorincs of bloom and blossom all
attest the wonderful works of nature
and impress mankind of the awaken
ing of mother earth from her long win
ter's sleep. The bee and the bird
fit here and there gathering the
sweets of lite from tree and earth
the farmer busies himself with
plough and hoe. All nature is at
tuned to the beautiful spring time,
the resurrection, as it were.

What 1t Costs to Stop a Train.

What 1t Costs to Stop a IRAN
In the campaign which the Ohio
railroads have been making for an
increase i'm passenger rates in that
state. all kinds of statistics have
been filed with the legislative com
mittee. Probably the statistics
which deal with train stops, filed
by President Willard, of the B. &
! O., are the among the most inter
esting.
This memorandum asserts that 1t
costs from $1.35 to SITS to stop a
passenger train at a station on the
Ohio roads; or at an average OF
about $3.50 a stop. In other words
with train making II stops there
would be a cost to the railroad of
$3.50 for starting and stopping
alone. Among the items entering
into the cost of stopping train the
most important is coal, as when a
train is stopped the airbrakes are
applied and the coal is used to gen
crate the steam which congresses
the air.
There is great wear and tear of
equipment because of these stop
pages and the car wheels, the break
shoes and the rails are worn away
because of friction. In starting at
ter stop there is a great expendi-
ture of steam in getting under head
way and there is more wear and
tear on the equipment. Son rail-
road men say that President Will
lard's figures are too low and that
taking the train with II stops it
would require at least 80 through
passengers to pay. for the cost of
starting and stopping the train.

Snow Lumber Company in Railway
Rate Case.

Rate case.
Washington, D. c., May 1.-The
Interstate Commerce Commission
today dismissed the complaint OF
the Snow Lumber Company, of High
Point, against the Raleigh, Charlotte
and Southern Railway Company.
The complainant alleged that a
difference of one cent per hundred
pounds or five dollars a car on the
lumber freight rate from Norman as
compared with Troy, VAUDEVILLE and
Mt. Gilead was unjust and unreason-
able and prejudicial to Norman.
The commission justified the lower
rate from Troy, VAUDEVILLE and Mt.
Gilead on the ground that these
three towns are now on the main
line of the defendant railroad instead
of being as formerly On spur of the
Aberdeen and Asheboro.

The little city of Kings Mountain
has been divided by the CASTOR
Cleveland county line, part of the
enterprising little city heretofore
having been in CASTOR and part in
Cleveland county. This was incon-
venient and for this reason an cleo
ton was ordered on proposition to
vote the entire town into one coun-
ty, either CASTOR or Cleveland. The
election took place last Saturday. By
a majority of 70 the voters said they
preferred to live in Cleveland coun-
ty. AS a result of this change Cleve-
land county gains about 1000 in
population with perhaps more than
a million dollars in taxable valua-
ton. AS result of the election
five more cotton mills are placed in
Cleveland county and, of course, this
number is lost to CASTOR. There
were 613 votes cast in this election

A paper is publish. and gives all the news
Of the city county and state;
The editor works with the will OF the craft
And seldom the issue is late.
But folks often think he is working for fun,
And to pay r an ad. would nos do;
They expect him to publish their notices free,
AS every e does it but you.

The list is made out with great care;
They write me letter and say it is shipped,
The freight agent says nothing there

here;
need them but what can do:
They answer me back to have patience and
wait,
As every one does it but vou

And asks me to discount a bill that owe.

And say PUT your name on the list;
Just give us Ole hundred to help us along,
A tfifle like that won't be missed -

What else can a poor fellow do:
They tell me my neighbors have all done the
same,
And every one does it but you.
AS yet I'm not married but have girl
AS fair as the flowers in May;
AS we are engaged it is fair to presume
That we will be married some day.
Last evening parted with her at the gate
And asked for sweet kiss or two:
She blushingly answered and sweetly said

blocks on Washington street, and
that when the water was again
turned on, it was to give the addi-
tional service of ten inch main
coupled with that of the sixteen inch
main previously supplying the down
town district.
While this means that the down
town district of Phoenix now has a
more than adequate supply of water
for fire protection, it is in line with
the aim of Manager Parish to leave
no room for the underwriters to find
fault with the water supply in the
business section.
As soon as the finishing touches
are placed to the connection of the
new ten inch main, running from
Monroe street to Washington street
the work of bringing down another
ten inch main on Fifth avenue will
be commenced. Like that on Fifth
street the new main on Fifth ave-
nue. will bring in an additional sup
ply of water to the sixteen inch
main. 1t is believed that this will
furnish an entirely adequate supply
for fire purposes for several years
to come.
The installation of these new
mains are in line with the recon-
mendations of Fire Chief Holmgren
of San Diego, who recently inspect
ed the fire protection facilities and
submitted . report and recommends
tons TO Manager Parish. The ten
inch pipe required for connecting ur
the Monroe street main with the
Washington street main had beer
purchased some time previously and

Phoenix yesterday had more water

for fire purposes than it did the day
before, in fact more than it ever had
before. Between darkness Tuesday
evening and dawn Wednesday, there
was "cut in to the sixteen inch
main in Washington street at Fifth
street, the new ten inch main, the
laying of which had just been com
pleted under the direction of Super
intendent V. A. Thompson, of the
city water department The actual
cutting in required just ninety
minutes, which, considering that the
great iron main had to be cut, the
main pumped out, a valve and gate
installed, and the connection COM
pleted. is considered an achievement

IN, OUT AND IN

Sentenced for Speeding.
Willard Fears Makes Sen
sational Break for Liber-
ty as He Is Being Led to
the City Jail

| For ten minutes on Tuesday after
noon just after police court. there
was more excitement about the city
hall plaza than there has been in
some time. when Willard Fears, who
had Just been sentenced to spend
five days in the city Jail for speeding.
broke from the officers who We're
escorting him to. the realms under
the city hall and made a mad break
for liberty. Like wild cat hit with
a pack saddle. Fears dashed across
the east side Of the plaza to Jeffer-
son street. along jefferson street to
the alley back of the Golden Eagle
stables, up the alley to the rear of
the Boston store and into the rear
door of a small clothing store which
faces on South Second street
Close on his heels came City Jailer
John Perrin, Motorcycle Policeman
Hunt, Policemen Duncan, Valenzuela
and others, and on their heels came
first dozens and scores and then
hundreds of excited citizens who
wondered what it was all about. In
the excitement Hunt discharged his
ltrusty siX-shooter into the air with
the idea of soaring Fears into halting
but which shooting had directly the
opposite effect. When the chase was
at its height an excited individual on
horseback and swinging a lariat
about his head joined in.
When Fears made his way to the
rear of the clothing store and disap-
Feared within, the crowd on his heels
had grown to such proportions that
in attempting to continue the chase
they became wedged in the narrow
passage leading to the establish
ment, and presented a spectacle of
wriggling wrangling humanity. Fears
took refuge under a counter in the
store where he was found by the
officers. He was led back into the
Jail by City Jailer John Perrin, who
firmly placed his thumb and fore
finger firmly upon Fears right ear.
Fears was arrested on Saturday
night by Policeman Hunt for driving
his motorcycle through the streets at
a rate Of speed prohibited by the
city ordinance AT the police station
Fears left his motorcycle as a guar
antee of his appearance in police
court on Monday afternoon. on
Monday morning Fears appeared be-
fore City Magistrate Mcbride and
announced that being deprived Of his
motorcycle for the day would pre-
vent him from journeying to his
place of employment four miles out
of town.
Out of the kindness Of his heart
Judge Mcbride permitted Fears to
take his machine upon promise of
appearing in police court. This pro-
mise was broken and late Monday
night the police again picked UP
Fears and lodged him in the city Jail
Again he left his machine as a guar
antee of his appearance He was in
police court yesterday afternoon and
narrowly escaped being sent down
for contempt of court, becuse of his
efforts TO become familiar with the
judge.
The outcome of it was that Judge
Mcbride gave him a city Jail sen
tence of five days. He will now
serve his time unless he finds some
way to squeeze between the bars

was small compared with the bene
fit resulting. The city pumping plant
is SO equipped that upon the sound
ing of an alarm pressure of ninety
pounds is almost Immediately avail
able. The cutting in of new mains
VIII in no way affect this pressure.
With the likelihood of new central
fire station being erected in the near
future and new pump and aero
truck purchased, it is believed that
the underwriters will concede that
Phoenix has adequate fire protection
and will agree to reduction in fire
insurance rates.
