SNOWFLAKES PRESERVE ARMY"
CALLED TO THE MEXICO BORDER

active service, Arizona would be
proud of it.
Provided with all the regular
army equipment, the men at
drill and in camp could not be
distinguished from regular SOL
diers except by experienced Off
GERS. The Arizona militiamen
are big, fine looking fellows,
most of them cowboys, lumber
men, miners and other outdoor
men. With one or two excep-
tions, all the officers are more
than six feet tall.
The First infantry is also
unique. One of the companies
at Tucson is comprised exclus-
lively of Americanized Mexicans,
Capt. Soto commanding. The
members are mostly students
or graduates of the University
of Arizona. There is also one
company made up exclusively
of Indians. 1t is probably the
best drilled company in the regi-
ment. Most of these Indians
are going to school. They tale
to the work naturally and make
excellent soldiers.

Report of the L. d. S.
Quarterly Conference

A very successful Stake con-
ference was held at Snowflake
last Friday and Saturday. Thru
out the entire session we were
given many timely remarks by
Elder George F. Richards of the
Twelve Apostles, and Elder VIM.
A. Morton of the Sunday School
and the Religion Class General
Boards. Three sessions of the
general assembly were held on
Saturday but were not so we'll
attended as usual, the cause, no
doubt, being the epidemic of
measles, which is prevalent
among us. Several changes were
made among the Stake officers.
The principal ones follow:
Norman A. Brimhall sustained
a High Councillor instead of Jo-
seph Fish, who has removed to
Utah.
Henry M. Tanner, president
of the High Priests quorum, the
former president, VIM. H. Shum-
way, having been chosen bishop
e a. l. I'D
Wallace Ellsworth succeeds
Ezra R. Hatch as president of
the End quorum of Elders.
Minnie F. Willis was chosen
to fill the vacancy caused by the
resignation of former president
of the Y. L. M. l. A., Pearl N.
Fish, who is removing to Utah.
The Relief Society held their
convention during the confer
ence and were ably instructed
by Sr. Janet Hyde of the Gen
eral Board.
The conference closed Satur-
day evening and on Sunday the
dedicatory services for the Hol-
brook church were held in three
very successful meetings which
were as we'll attended as stand
ing room in the new chapel
would accommodate. At t h e
afternoon session 352 persons
were crowded into the chapel to
hear the dedicatory prayer, which
was offered by Elder George f.
Richards.
The new church cost over
$1,000. The general church paid
about one-haIf, and the balance
was raised by subscription, Hol-
brook paying one-half and the
Stake paying the balance.
M. r. TANNER, Clerk.

Having in view the posi-
bilities of future aggressions
upon the territory of the
United States from Mexico
and the necessity for proper
protection of that frontier,
the president has thought
proper to exercise the au-
thority vested in him by the
constitution and the laws,
and to call out the organ
lied militia necessary for
that purpose. | am in con-
sequence instructed by the
president to call into the SER
vice of the United States

militia of the state of Ari-
zona which the president di-
rects shall be concentrated
at the places designated by
the commanding general of
the southern department,
now at Ell Paso and which
he has been directed to COM
municate to you. On the
arrival of the organized mi
litia at the designated places
of rendezvous they will be
mustered into the service of
the United States by officers
of the regular army desig-
mated for that purpose.
From the above, it will be
cen that only the organized
is called for, the reserves

RAISES HOG WEIGHING As
MUCH AS FULL SIZE MULE

Atlanta, Ca, March 1A.-D. R. Hen
de1son, well known Georgia farm
er, has killed hog which, after it
had been knocked down, weighed one
thousand and twenty pounds, estab-
fishing a new record for Georgia pork.
A clearer idea Of it's immense weight
can be gathered from the fact that
fuil sized mule only weighs about
one thousand pounds. The hog was
measured while hanging up and meas
ured eight feet and one inch from the
tip of his snout to the end of his hind
