FAMOUS WOMAN DEAD.

LONDON. June 23.-The Countess of Cardigan, whose death, at the age og 9l years, was announced here this month, had a remarkable career. She saw as a child much of the cour1 life of King William ", heard Tom Moore sing his own songs and knew the Mar quis of Hertford, the original of Thackeray's Lord Steyne Her matri- monial experience included the Earl of Cardigan, who led the charge of the Light Brigade at Balaklaya and, after his death, a Portugese noble man, but she also received proposals from the legitimists heir to the Span ish throne, whom she narrowly mis- sed marrying and from Disraeli, a warm suitor, Lord Shefborne, the Duke of Leeds, Prince Soltykon and the Duke of St. Albans Her name will go down in history as the author of a book of memories exposing all the scandale in high life during the Victorian era.
 It was not until the Countess of Cardigan was 85 years old and almost forgotten that she startled England with her chronicle of aristocratic scandal under the title of My Recol- leotiors," in which she concealed noth- ing to save her own reputation or

COMMISSIONERS HOLD LAST HEARING PRIOR
 TO TRAVEL PROGRAM
Jones Will Go to WinSIoW First and Then to Chicago to Tackle the Passenger Rate Prob- lem.

PHOENIX, June 22.-The corpora ton commission heard today an ap- plication Of the Fl Paso & Southwest ern System for permission to issue bonds in the amount of S16OOOOOO which issue is for the purpose of com pleting the consolidation of the vari- ous lines controlled by the E. P. & s. w System, which is the holding or ganizatiOu. Although the New Mexico lines are included in the consolidation and are controlled by the holding com pany, the stock of such cannot be le- gally voted until certain outstanding obligations of the companies have been retired Consequently it is the desire of the company to take over it's own bonds in the amount of S5.- 055,O00, and then issue new bond which will be used for the purpose of acquiring the New Mexico line. An issue in the amount of S3OOO, ,OOO is for the purchase of certain rolling stock belonging to the E. P. & s. w.. company.
 This will be the last hearing of un- usual consequence scheduled by the commissioners for some weeks by reason of travel plans Of the members. Commissioner Jones, according to his present plans, will go to Winslow Ar izona where, on the 29th and 3Oth of this month, he will conduct a hearing concerning the rates charged by the Winslow Lighting company. From Winslow Commissioner Jones will go to Chicago where he will attend the passenger rate hearing scheduled to
 begin July 9th. This hearing the Arizona commissioners consider to be of great importance to the state for the reason that advances are un- der consideration in passenger rates from the east to the. Pacific Coast and the rates proposed for the inter-moun- tain section are the highest of the new schedule considering the parts of Arizona annually prepare campaigns to secure solonists and winter tour ists, the interest of the state is at once apparent

 The Countess father was Spenser de Horsey. M P., and her mother the
 daughter of the Earl of Stradbroke
 From childhood, Adeline de Horsey
 moved in the highest society of Eng
 land The Duke of Wellington was one of her fathers intimates.
 The young lady's views were decid- edly advanced for her time, and be- cause she was not allowed a latch key, she left home and got a house
 of her own in London lt was at this ! time she met the Earl of Cardigan. The Earl possessed brute courage and nothing else, and failed of promotion
 to a generalship on this account He
 had made an unhappy marriage with the divorced wife of a brother officer, | from which he was released by her death Her intimacy with Cardigan | in his wife's lifetime offended Queen Victoria. The result was she was prac. tically ostracized by her own class 1 because of the royal snub With iron ! courage she went to garden parties, balls and functions in which she sat absolutely alone and ignored. Her | husbands cousin Lady Ailesbury, the social director of that time, came into 1 her powers. however, because of her knowledge of a scandalous chapter in
 that lady's past.
 l When after being widowed she mar. ried the Count of Lancaster of Portu. gal she gave fresh offense to the Queen by taking the title of Countess of Cardigan and Lancastre, for the Queen was in the habit of calling her self the Countess of Lancaster when l travelling incognito.

Many schools have commenced
the fall terms and more will short
ly follow. Our public school sys-
tenn is grand one and one of
which we may justly feel proud.
The value of an education cannot
be estimated and the apparent
neglect of some of our people to
avail themselves of the opportu-
mites afforded for their advance
ment is marvel to us. Parents
and guardians see to it that your
children attend school. As the
twig ia bent, so is the tree inclin.
ed. If the little ones are kept
steadily at school in their early
days. habits of study will be
formed which will not deter them
in after years. Send your chill
dren to school-compel them to
60 and as they grow older they
will bless you for it. There is no
better place in the world for
good, strong, healthy child than
inside the walls of a we'll regu.
lated school room.
