Peru.


Peru in the abundance Of her min.
erals is the real treasure chest OF South
America. The country has a territorial
extension of upward Of 100000 square
miles. Callao, the chief port, BY the
ocean route through the Panama canal
Is within 200 miles Us near to New
York as is the City Of Mexico by rail.
The Amazon port Of IQuitos, 2,lOO
miles from Para, Is reached In shorter
time by steamers from New York than
by the overland journey from Lima
the capital. The country. which has
about 100000 inhabitants, Is divided
into three distinct zones, with as many
varieties Of climate, products and soil.
These are the coast zone, the sierra OF
mountain zone, which includes the
great tablelands and valleys Of the
Andes, and the montanic or forest re
zion. which stretches from the eastern
slopes Of the Andes to the vast river
basin of the interior. Peru's resources
are both agricultural and mineral
The principal agricultural export prod
ucts are rubber, cotton, cane sugar anu
alpaca wool.-EXchange.

The Clarity of Macaulay.

"Macaulay never wrote an OBSCURE
sentence in his life," said John Morley.
and this IS partly due to his exact use
of words. There is never any doubt
about his meaning Macaulay began
the use of Latin words at an early
age. When four and half years old
he was asked If he had got over the

TEACHING GOOD HABITS
AN ELUSIVE MEAT-FLAVoR1NG

Having a reputation for the delicious
flavor of the meats serve, l explained
the secret as garlic vinegar. In quart
bottle of the best vinegar place small
garlic, and as the vinegar is used replen-
ish it. Into the pores Of the meat pour
as much vinegar as it will absorb. then
brush over on both sides with olive-oil.
This makes the meat rich and tender;
the vinegar cannot be detected, and the
garlic gives a mysterious flavor that
cannot be defined.

ATTRACTIVE PROGRAM
 AT SCHOOL OF MUSIC

Mrs. Cromwell Stacey, soprano, and H. M. Wright, baritone, have arranged most attractive program for their concert at the Arizona School of Mu- sic tonight. Mrs. Stacey's numbers will include The Last Rose of Summer" in the group of old songs. Several songs in Italian in this group will be Waltz Song from Romeo and Juliet" and in the English an aria from Aida" and the Jewel Song from Faust
 MT. Wright's numbers will include Rolling Down to Rio" by German and The Two Grenadiers" by Schumann The program closes with a duet "The Battle Eve" by Bonheur.
 Mrs. Stacey is well known in the city while she has not appeared on many programs. her beautiful voice has won her host of friends, and the fact that she was placed at the head of the vocal department in the School of Mu- sic is in itself proof of her ability as vocalist.
 MT. Wright needs no introduction to the people of Phoenix as he has ap- peared at the Musicians Club and a number of the best musical programs of the city. His voice is of exception ally fine quality and range. This con- cert is open to the public.

BUDGET BILL
 AND DEBATES
These May Form Reasons for Extraordinary Session of Congress, According to Congressman Carl Hay den

If there is an extraordinary session of congress, this year. it will come late in the fall-perhaps october. ac- cordng to Hon. Carl Hayden, the Ari- zona congressman, who returned to his home in Phoenix yesterday. In view of the strong probability of an extra ses- sion of Arizona's own legislative body, the topic has created considerable in- terest here
 President Wilson has not said he would call d special session of con gress,' said Mr. Hayden last night. But he has intimated that if he does, it will come in october. There are two purposes for which such a session would be called. one is to permit the house to get in sixty days work on the appropriation bill, in order to get it out Of the way before the election year. and the other is to enable the senate to revise it's rules limiting de- bate.
 Tt will take the senate sixty days to get this work done. With no meas ures to consider. it might get such an important rule as this through in that time. Now, debate is not limited at all in the senate, and this sometimes re- suits in long Winded arguments that delay legislation. In the house, the rule is for one hour speeches. with five minutes on amendments. If the senate gives itself four times this limit. it would still work great saving of time"
 That the president would not be able to go to the Panama Pacific exposition early this year. was the news brought by the congressman from Washington. Instead of making the trip at once, Mr Wilson is having Vice President Mar shall represent him on the coast so that instead Of coming direct to his Scottsdale home. will make his way to San Francisco before returning here.

MISS KELLER WILL
 KEEP PHOENIX DATE

Helen Keller will be in Phoenix Sat urday night, March 13. The following telegram. from the J. E. Pond lyceum bureau, under whose management Miss Keller lectures. was received at the Y. w. C. A. yesterday afternoon.
 New York, March II, 1915. Mrs. F. \. Phillips,
 Y. W. C. A,

 Helen Keller wires she will keep Phoenix dates.
 J. B. POND LYCEUM BUREAU.
 The above was a response to tele- gram of inquiry regarding a statement in a Los Angeles paper to the effect that Helen Keller was ill in Texas and would be unable to fill her western dates.
 The ticket sale has been exceedingly satisfactory and the reservations indi- cate that Miss Keller will speak to a record house.
 A Ions line was in waiting to reserve seats at o'clock yesterday morning The board is still open and reserva- tions can still be made today from 9 a. m. to G. 30 D. m. at Diehrs shoe store on West Washington. To miss Helen Keller will mean missing the big at traction of the season.
