cents q man per day, with 81
cents q day added for coffee. The
government has generously all
lowed us for 8 days travel which
means that Company L will have
$3.50 for it's mess enroute to
Camp Cody.
Our route brought us from
|Mankato to Omaha, where we
made an hours stop this morn
ing. Bound now for Kansas City
via the Missouri Pacific, we leave
there tonight over the Frisco
lines for Fort Worth, Texas,
thence on to Deming, by way of
Ell Paso over the Texas Pacific.
Trainmen expect us to arrive at
Deming, barring accidents, Mon
day morning. We are travelling
on much faster schedule than
that or which we went South
last year. Stops are and will be
made very infrequently and I'M
der orders from the Central De-
partnent trains will not pur-
posely be held up to unload and
exercise soldiers. This haste is
necessary in order to release cars
for movement of other troops.
Our string of cars, SO claims the
Pullman conductor in charge, has
done nothing the last two months
but haul soldiers and has COW
erred in that time every state in
the Union.
Safe to say every member of
the Company is in fine spirits and
enjoying this trip to the fullest,
and the boys do not chafe at
regulations which forbid them
to start rough houses" hang
their feet out the window or obey
the guard to stay on the cars.
Along the road depot platforms
are lined with cheering crowds,
and every stop gives chance to
make acquaintance. Most of the
boys at such opportune occasions
are enrolling students for their
correspondence schools they ex-
pect to operate at Camp Cody,
and judging from the present
registration such schools will
more properly be classified as
Female Seminaries," with their
enrolment depending entirely on
personal advertising literature
that flutters into eager hands
from every car window.
In closing, the southern sun
warmth is already noticeable,
and again the boys will be thank
full.
Last night, through some UNI
accountable tumble, nine COM
pany L boys-on baggage and
mess detaillost out on the as
signment Of hunks. Some dou-
bled with occupants Of upper
berths, while others attmepted
to- sleep in the baggage car.
Blankets were both insufficient
in number and thickness with
rather chilling results. Tonight
everyone will be located without
difficulty and the warm atmos-
phere will offset the general dis
comfort felt last night.

At the Hip

Here is a rare combinatiOn-Anita Stewart playing opposite to Charles Richmond in a smashing eternal Tri- angle picture creation that has for it's first bid the title, "The More Excellent Way"
 A girl thinks she loves one man but maIries the other and almost the very moment the knot is tied she tells her husband that she has never loved him. That she loves the other fellow and her husband answers her plea that she be allowed to win the otner fellow and then to agree to a divorce.
 How she finds out who is the real man of the two makes up the reason for this story, and incidentally the critics say, gives Anita Stewart the best chance of the year to act.
 Maitland Davies reviewing it when it ran last week at Tally's, says: "The More Excellent Way" is a real story and makes one wish it were even longer It is not possible to give any photoplay higher praise than this Most of us wish the play was over ;n n;ne cases out of ten before the end flashe: on the screen.

the duties connected with the warden office An old resident of the state, he has taken an active interest in all mat ters pertaining to the conservation and protection of game for the past many years, and he is therefore qualified to take up the work where it will be left off by the retiring official.
 The new warden was a candidate for the office of secretary of state on the republican ticket last fall and is one of the best known members of the party in Gila county.
 Dr. w. E. Severen, state veterinarian | handed his resignation to Governor Campbell yesterday but the latter re- fused to state who would be the new

 ANT|-CAMB[|NG
 BILL |S INVOKED
First of Petitions Which
 May Force Measure to Go to Vote of People Filed
 with Secretary of State

Concerted action is being carried for ward throughout the state to prevent the anti gambling bill, passed at the last legislature. from going into effect June 6, or upon the expiration of the 90 day limit.
 The first of a series of referendum petitions. directed against this bill, known as senate bill No 57, was filed with Secretary of State Sidney Osborn at the state house yesterday. More than 500 names were affixed to this pe- tition.
 To prevent bill from becoming a law upon the expiration of the 90-day limit, however, it is necessary that these referendum petitions contain the names of at least five per cent of the voters votino at the last general elec- tion. It will therefore be necessary to secure at least 2,915 signatures to the petitions.
 It was announced yesterday that sev ral other petitions are now in circula tion and will be filed with the secre- tary of state as soon as they are com pleted. Those directing the movement have stated that no trouble is being experienced in securing signatures fol the petitions.

 The purpose of the informal confar- ence was to talk over the Dlans alraad,, contemplated and to review inc neads or the immediate future. The Iahor situation Is conceded to be the moot SEiious obstacle to the growing of crons thlS present season. A plan which bas had the backing of the Rotary club is to mobilize the high school and eighth grace boys of the Phoenix schools. This Work IS progressing nicely. It is R planned to divide the boys into grouns oi # each and provide a cook wa.s,,, ioi edch group Some little difficulty is

 They let me walk when l was noth- ing but a baby. My feet got turned in and my knees bulged out from over weight, so that I had to wear iron braces to my hips. But one day when I was five years old my dad informed me that I was to take swimming les sons. 1 cant describe the joy I felt as realized that, little by little, strnegth was beginning to creep into my legs unhampered while l was in the water It was not until 1 was 13 years old that my legs were strengthened out Meantime I had become a regular duck in the water. Before long I could swim a mile, then two; and after a while did ten miles near Melbourne on the Yarra.'
 The lesson of Miss kellermann's life is that no one should feel discouraged about bodily ills provide that he or she has the iron nerve and grit to sue ceed. From having been a helpless cripple, she developed into the greatest woman swimmer in the world. Her feats in Australia were surpassed by her subsequent achievements in the English Channel, Europe and America The fame thus gair~d led to theatrical stardom. She studied every branch nl the entertainers art, becoming an all around athlete, commanding a fabulous salary. and finally being selected by William Fox as the perfect woman capable of portraying "A Daughter o1 the Gods"

gia's proportion is said to be approx

strength wiyision. The national guards
men are to play an important part in
The training Of the raw men. and it is
thought that in view of this. Macon
will be selected as a site for large

The war department has asked for
additional information as to Macon's
facilities, including main lines of rail
ways, number OF feet Of side tracks,
number of trains Of certain length that

citation has worked out with the quar-
termaster-general of the army plan
whereby all the rail transportation IA
cilities of the United States will be al
the disposal Of the government, and it
has been announced that they will be
able to handle all the governments
business without seriously interfering
with the commerce of the nation.
1t is said that the government in
tends to advise the railroads what ser
vice it requires and the responsibility
will be upon the railroad managers to
provide that service. 1t is the belief
Of railroad companies that this will
not only work out for efficiency, but
for economy in operation as well.
