BOYS TO PLAY FOR VETS.
Diamond Made Near Home TO Amuse
Old Civil War Soldiers.

Kearny, n. j., May 2l.-A free base
ball park for small boys TO play in TO
amuse Civil War veterans is the most
recent reform realized at the New Jer-
sey Home for Disabled Soldiers here.
The miracle worker is Superintendent
James +. Connolly, former city clerk Of
Newark, n. j., a Civil War veteran.
When Connolly came here two years
ago the home had just passed through
an investigation. Things have changed
since Connolly took hold. There are
five hundred veterans here, ranging be-
tween seventy and ninety years old.
They never tire prsising the superin-
tendent. The veterans will watch tho

at the game themselves.

YUAN TN HANDS
OF PEACE ENJOYS
Willing to Resign PreSi
dency if Marking Con-
ference SO Desires.

The following dispatch has been re-
ceived from Chang Ling koh, Peking
correspondent Of the Far Eastern Blu
reau:
Peking, May Ell have positive in
formation from a high Picking su-
tbority that President Yuan Shih-kai
has placed himself absolutely in the
hands Of the peace plenipotentarics
now in conference at Marking. To this
authority the President has reiterated
his desire TO lay down his heavy re
sponsibilities. if that is deemed to be
really the will Of the Chinese people.
This course, however, is opposed by
influential officials and others, who in
sist that Yuan's retirement now would
invite serious international complied
tions. A middle course is being urged
upon both sides, with the strong in
dorsement, it is understood, of General
Feng Kuo-chang, principal representa-
tive Of the government at the Marking
conference.
II is proposed that Yuan, continue in
Office until the expiration OF his pres
ent term, or at least until the new Par
Lament can be summoned and the
actual government Of the country in
trusted TO a responsible Cabinet. The
reasonable attitude OF the party in
power is impressing itself upon many
who hitherto demanded the elimination
of all or most of those who we're promi-
nent in Office under Yuan.
Hope of Settlement Brighter.
Hope Of an immediate settlement is
much brighter than at any time since
the beginning Of the revolution. Ii is
understood that friendly power, whose
sincerity is not questioned by either
side, has let il be known informally
that immediate peace is absolutely es-
sential if China is to be saved from d.
vision and partition, with inevitable
foreign Intervention and control.
The financial situation requires i'm
mediate relief If an agreement is
reached at Marking | am told that the
banks will soon be able gradually to
resume normal specie payments. This
is not lost upon the commercial lead
ers, who are urging peace as patriotic
necessity.
If peace comes at once China will be
in a much stronger position than at any
time during her recent history. The air
will have been cleared Of many do
nestle political misconceptions and the
energies of the country can be concer-
trated upon developing natural re
sources and securing the necessary in
ternstional cooperation to avert any
possibility Of further foreign aggres-
sion.

DESERT WAS ONCE A JUNGLE
Scientists Have Discovered Facts of
Greatest Interest Concerning the
Barren Hills of Wyoming.

That palms, figs, magnolias and 9th
er tropical vegetation once grew lux
uriously on what are now the barren
hills of Wyoming is proved by fossil
plants found in the enormous coal de-
posits being uncovered there. These
trees and plants doubtless grew in the
swamps of Wyoming when the eli
mate was as mild as that of Florida
is now.
Coal is fossilized vegetable matter
The tremendous extent of the coal
fields indicates that the vegetation
to produce this great amount of car
bonaceous matter must have been ex-
tremely luxuriant. The hills are now
brown and bare; the fiourishing jun
giles were long ago turned into arid
deserts.
1t is estimated by the United States
geological survey that the amount of
coal in the Rock Springs, Wyoming,
field alone available for mining eX-
ceeds 142,OO0,00O,0OO tons. Available
for mining" means within 5000 feet of
the surface and in beds 21a feet or
more in thickness.

Congressman Hayden sends us
the information that the Com
mittee on Indian Affairs has in
cluded a $4,000 item to aid in
the construction of a bridge over
the Little Colorado east of Wins
low, in their report to the House.
He says further that Senators
Smith and Ashurst are actively
in support of the bill also, and
will steer it through the Senate.
This will be cheerful news to our
citizens, who will rejoice if the
appropriation is soon available.

THE HOUSE-kEpT DOLLAR. "

1t does not stay in the house
long. It is so easy to spend
money when you have it at
hand. 1t is easy going and when
it starts it is gone. You have
tried a number of times to hold
on to the House-Kept Dollar, ="
haven't you? why not bank it
with us. You can get is when
ever you want it, but you won t
spent it when you don't want to
do so. A bank account never
grows until it is started, but
once started is almost sure to
keep growing. Besides the
pride and satisfaction the deposi-
tor feels in the possession of a
neat sum in the bank, it is sure
to prove ones best friend in
need. Investigate our saving
plan. We cheerfully invite you
to call and see where you need
an account with US.

A bill passed in the House, and
now soon to come up for final
passage in the Senate, is known
as the stock-raising homestead
law, and of more than passing
interest to Arizona. The purpose
of the bill is to grant homestead
entries of GAO acres in the noun
tains for stock-raising purposes,
requiring the entryman to make
improvements in the way of puts
ting down wells, building fences
and silos, to the value of SIZE an
acre during three years, at
which time final proof can be
made. ANY kind of a bill that
will have the effect of putting
the vacant government land
in possession of private individ-
uals will be a good thing, as it
adds to the tax roll of the state,
and adds to the population.

There should be a movement
made at once to open a good road
between Winslow and the Snow
flake country A good road will
be beneficial to both localities, as
the Snowflake people are raising
farm products, and want a good
market, and our railroad people
want fresh farm products and
can furnish the demand. 1t is
altogether probable if a commit
tee from the commercial club
was appointed to wait on the
people at Snowflake, and lay be-
fore them the proposition of
building a permanent highway
they would be glad to join in the
movement. There is a good road
already completed to the Cheve-
Ion, and a substantial steel bridge
across it; and from this point to
Snowflake the road would be on
a mesa, requiring but little ex-
pense to construct and maintain
a good road.

The demand for houses to
rent is quite in excess of the sup
ply. More houses are needed
to accommodate the increasing
population, and it seems that
some scheme ought to be origi-
mated to handle this feature of
the city's development. With
so many railroad men making
their home here, a building and
investment company that would
build and sell houses on the
monthly installment plan would
find good field here for opera
ton. A large per cent of our
railaoad men are living in rented
houses. paying an average rental
of $25 per month, and hold moth
ing but a bunch of rent receipts
to show for their investment. In
Los Angeles investment compan-
les build attractive little homes
and sell them to purchasers for a
500 payment down, and month
ly payments of S25. 1t takes a
number of years to pay out on a
place, but you will eventually
have something to show for your

The board of supervisors are
mind readers which accounts for
the awarding of the county print
ing to the Holbrook News. Our
readers will recall that the de-
fense of the supervisors, in call
ing the News man on the tele-
phone to ask him if he meant
single or double column measure,
was that the bid was indefinite.
The Holbrook News bid reads as
follows:
For publishing the proceedings of the board of
supervisors. insertion only, rs cents per inch.
The Winslow Mail as follows:
Publishing proceedings of the board of supervi-
sors insertion. 15 cents an inch.
The supervisors could read the
mind of the editor of the Wins
low Mail, and knew he meant
single column measure; but as
the Holbrook editor had no mind
to read they had to call him up
on the telephone. Don't the
conspiracy of the court house
gang improve with their various
subterfuges for a defense? Be-
haps the truth would be their
best defense. They ought to try

Phoenix experienced for few
days the inconvenience of being
an inland town, when the recent
floods washed out all rail commu-
nication with the outside world.
After this experience the citizens
of our capital city are more con-
vinced than ever they want a
main line road. Winslow will be
glad to have them prevail on the
Santa Fe to build through and
join the main line here.

Whatever opinions different
people may hold on the European
war, it must to be admitted by
all that the doughty German un-
derstands the war game. His
latest exploit in capturing a Brit
ish liner and bringing it into an
American harbor as a war prize,
while England was entertaining
the idea that the vessel had been
lost at sea, is bound to elicit the
admiration of even the enemies
of the Teuton. England will
have to watch out or Germany
will slip into London and steal

Interest in the probable nor

Interest in the probable nomi-
nee in the republican national
convention is growing, and some
of the wise ones are talking of
Roosevelt. In 1904 when Roose-
welt was a candidate to succeed
himself, a certain senator, when
asked his opinion Of the advisa-
bility of the move, remarked that
everybody was for him, but no.
body wanted him. Perhaps his
tory will repeat itself in Chicago
this summer.

Perhaps the supervisors can
get Judge Sapp to sell his old

tion among the INDECENT. So
long as he has no use for them
the county ought to buy them as
he probably could use the money.

GERMAN SUGGESTION FOR PEACE
CONFERENCE IS UNFAY0R-

Believed English Note on Peace Wiia

World
BY ED l.. KEEN

LONDON, Dec. 27-It was made en-
tirely clear today that the Allies will
not accept the German proposal for q
peace conference; but the coming re-
ply to the Teutons is hailed as q
splendid opportunity for England and
her Allies to. set before the world q.
statement epitomiZing the ideals aud
aims of the entente powers.
A lack of sincere responsiveness
and the inoonclusive nature of the
German reply, England thinks, has
convicted the Teutons of a lack of
sincerity. Strong influences are work
ing today to urge the English govern
ment to make this alleged insincerity
more striking by a statement of the
principles upon which the British are
operating in their conduct of the war.
The English public is impressed By
Germany's overweening desire for
peace, as an evidence of realization of
waning strength. The British believe
Germany realizes her enemies are
growing stronger while the Teutons
are growing weaker

BUREAU LETS CAT
OUT OF THE BAG
Federal Reports Seems to Show That
Mining Experiment Station Was
Intended for Spokane

SPOKANE, Dec. 27-Copies of the
annual report of the federal bureau OF
mines, received in Spokane, show an
amusing blunder which mining men
interpret as showing that Spokane
was to have been selected as the ex-
perimental station of the bureau but
that the department switched the To-
cation to Seattle, presumably with the
understanding that Moscow be given
one next year.
Under the head of Bureau of Mines
prepared by Director Van H. Manning.
it is said that nine branch Libraries
have been established at Pittsburg,
Golden, Salt Lake, San Francisco, Tue
son, Berkeley, Fairbanks, Spokane and
Ithaca, N. Y.
These Libraries are for use of the
experimental stations. All of the others
except the one said to have been To-
Gated at Spokane are placed at points
where there are mining stations, and
as the report was prepared for the
printer some months ago, it is consid-
cred conclusive in Spokane that the
station was first intended for this
city
Director Manning, in telegram to
Spokane in explanation. says the
statement in his report is an error.
