WHEN SUN DRAWS WATER"
Some Erroneous Ideas That Seem to
Have Taken Firm Hold on the
Peoples Imagination.

When the sun is to the east or west
OF us on a cloudy or hazy day, beams
are often seen radiating from IT toward
the horizon: then many people say
the sun is drawing water" They ac-
tually believe that the lines OF light
and shadow appearing to converge in
the sun are great shafts of water and
the vapor that the sun is drawing up
into the air to be precinitated later on
the earth as rain or snow. These
shafts as a matter of fact are general
ly indicative of coming rainy weather,
but they cannot be counted on as in
fallible signs.
The idea that the sun is drawing
water" however. is entirely erroneous,
for the lines seen are the result OF
the passage of light through openings
in clouds already formed. The lines
that appear dark are shadows of
clouds while the light lines are rays
from the sun made visible in the air
by the presence therein of dust or wa
terry vapor, just as the dust in the
air of a room makes visible the light
that enters it through small, apertures

Mr.. Editor:
Did you read the Nurses story about
the county's helpless poor;
About the shack that they are housed
in and the misery they endure?
Did you think the story truthful or
believe it all lie,
Told to harrass human feeling and
make the tender hearted cry?
Did a little wave of pity quicken
heart beats in your breast,
When you read that helpless creatures
lie where vermin break their rest?
Did disgust or anger move you when
you read of your county's shame?
Did you resolve to do your utmost to
have punished those to blame?
Did you think of pennies gathered to
buy tracts and brogan shoes,
For heather that can't read the tracts,
while the programs they won't
use?
Did you think of the oily hypocrite
with plenty in his purse,
Who satisfies his conscience by prayer
and hymn book verse?
Who, like the miser hides his gold
from curious prying eyes,
While at is elbow STEPPED in filth, from
want, his fellow dies.
The religion without charity of any
sect or creed,
Is the religion of the selfish one whose
mind is warped by greed.
It's the religion Of the creature that
to his fellow mans unjust,
1t swallows down the soft bread and
offers God the crust.

After Having Returned a
Conditional Verdict for
Col. Roosevelt, Twelve
Men Are Again Locked
Up for Night
FAVORED AN EQUAL
DIVISION OF COSTS
Illegal Verdict Forced by
One Juror, Who Appar-
emily is Still Holding Out
for Barnes-Jury May Be
Discharged Today
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPATcHl

SYRACUSE, May 21.-The jury in
the trial of the VIM. Barnes suit for
libel against Theodore Roosevelt is
deadlocked tonight, after once having
returned conditional verdict in favor
of the former president, which Supreme
Justice Andrews refused to receive. If
still unable to agree the jury will prob
ably be discharged tomorrow.
The condition which made the verdict
an improper one, was that the court
costs and disbursements be divided be-
tween the two principals in action. The
deadlock was a result of Juror No. II,
Edward Burns, a Syracuse motorman,
and a republican, announcing in sub
stance that if the costs and disburse-
ments were not divided he favored
verdict for the plaintiff. Tonight, after
the proposal of putting the costs upon
one OF the principals had been under
consideration more than ten hours no
word had come from the jury room to
indicate that the jury stood otherwise
than as it did when it was sent back
to the room.
The jury was in court twice today.
Soon after Justife Andrews arrived in
the morning he received a note from
the jurors informing him that ''pecu
liar situation had arisen" and asking
that he confer with them in the jury
room. The justice had the jury brought
into court and informed them that any
thing he could do to aid them in
reaching decision must be done in
open court. The jurors whispered
among themselves and then requested
that they be allowed to return to their
room for further deliberation.
Nearly an hour afterward word came
from the jury room that n decision had
been reached. In open court the fore
man. Warren w Somers. a grocer, an
nounced almost in a whisper that a
verdict had been found for the defen-
dant
The spectators started for the eX
it's Then Somers went on to say that
the verdict for the defendant was upon
the condition that he pay half and the
plaintiff pay half the costs. Justice
Andrews declared the verdict improper.
The foreman suggested a poll. 1t was
taken and Juror Eleven in a loud voice
said enlphatically, Il find for the plain
tiff"
"Gentlem en-" said Justice Andrews,
you must go back to your room and
stay there until you have agreed upon
a proper verdict"
At O'Clock the jury was still out,
so the court adjourned until ten o'clock
tomorrow The jurymen were in
formed that should they reach a YER
dict before II o'clock they could seal
it and turn it over to the court atten-
dant and then return to their homes

EXPRESS RATES
IN ARIZONA To
Be GUT SHORTLY
Reduction of 20 Per Cent
in Intra-State Tariffs to
Take Effect July lei
Paso Market Opened to
Dairymen

Marking the close of three years of
negotiation for rate revision, an agree
ment was reached yesterday between
the corporation commission and Off
cials of the Wells Fargo Express COM
pany which will result in a general re-
duction of express tariffs throughout
the state. The reductions, amounting
in some cases to seventy per cent, will
amount on the average to twenty per
cent for all classes, and will take effect
July 1.
TIL important change in express rates
was agreed to at a conference between
the commission and n. K. Lockwood of
San Francisco, traffic manager of the
Wells Fargo company, and H. r. His
lip, of Ell Paso, superintendent for this
division The conference followed a
public hearing at which a number of
prominent shippers of the valley ap-
peared.
Notable among the results of the con-
ference is the reduction of the rate on
fresh milk and cream from Phoenix and
valley points to FL Paso, the existing
rate of s233 per 100 lbs being cut to
81 cents. This new rate which will be
put into effect within a week will en-
able dairy products from the Salt River
Valley to compete successfully in the
FL Paso market, from which they have
hitherto been practically prohibited.
Another important change is the re-
duction of the rate from Glendale to
points in southern Arizona. This rate,
which has been forty cents higher than
the rate from Mesa and Tempe and has
seriously handicapped Glendale ship
pers, will be lowered May "a to the
same figure as from other points in
the valley.
The matter of a reduction of intra-
state express rates had been taken up
by the old territorial commission. and
was passed on to the corporation COM
mission when Arizona became a state,
said Chairman F. A. Jones of the COM
mission yesterday. about that time

gan an investigation of express rates

Though the house had practically
concluded the consideration of the
senate amendments to the bill the
night before, several of the sections
or subdivisions that had been passed
over were taken up again and the
house reversed itself concerning
them.
But before that work was begun
| a rule was established relating to the
vote required on new matter that
had come from the senate in the
way of amendment. 1t was decided
| that inasmdch as the appropriation
bill was an emergency bill, such
amendments could be concurred in
by the house only by a two thirds
vote. 1t was announced at the same
time that the conference reports
would have to be adopted, if at all.
by a two-thirds vote.
The rule as to voting on separate
I new amendments was without prece-
dent. The matter seems not to have
been raised in the last legislature buS
in the senate President Cunniff had
laid down the rule that the confer
ence report must be supported by
two thirds vote.
The ground having thus been
cleared O. motion was made for a
reconsideration of the vote by which
the house had concurred in the sem
ate amendment, cutting out the ap-
preparation of $500 to pay the eX-
penses of the tax commission, sitting
as a board of equalization. The mo-
ton was carried and Mr.. Proctor in
reply to an attack upon the COM
mission spoke with some warmth
against the manner of some of the
members i'll attacking the motives of
members who had supported the
commission. Mr.. Graham replied
briefly and the question of concur
renee again went to vote and the
senate amendment was rejected by
"a to 10.

WASHINGTON, May 21.-Justice
Mccoy took under advisement the
motion by the government to dismiss
the suit by the Riggs National bank
to enjoin Secretary McAdoo of the
treasury. Comptroller of Currency
Williams. and Treasurer Burke, from
alleged unlawful persecution of the
bank Relief sought by the plaintiff
pending litigation was denied by the
court, except as to the payment of
$4,000 into the treasury as interest on
bonds due the bank, which was with
held to cover penalties imposed by
the comptroller for failure to furnish
certain reports.
Justice Mccoy indicated that he
would endeavor to dispose of the
case before July. In denying the
prayer for an injunction pending liti-
cation he said that nothing in the
record before him now showed that
the government officials had exercis-
ed an arbitrary power in regard to
their refusal to select the Riggs
bank as reserve agency.
"The evidence here is of persistent
violations of the law and those vio-
lations did not begin when Williams
came into office and they have con-
tinued to this day"
The court also considered, on the
record as now made up. the charge
that Mr. McAdoo showed malice in
an interview at his office with Riggs
bank officials. Justice Mccoy said
it appeared to him the malice was
rather ION the other side"
