To the "CompIeat Angler"

A colored window in memory Of
Izaak Walton is to be placed in the
cathedral at Winchester, England.
where Walton is buried. The me-
mortal, of interest to all lovers OF Eng
lish literature as we'll as Of the sport
of angling, is thus described in Forest
and Stream: The central figure is
dressed like a medieval king. and be-
meath 1t is the verse, "The Lord sit
teth above the water-food." Large
figures in the side panels represent
Saint Anthony preaching to the fishes;
Saint Peter and the tribute money,
Saint Andrew with the loaves and the
fishes, and Saint Winfried instructing
the Sussex fishermen-an old English
legend In the lower corners two
scenes introduce Walton himself; In
one he is meditating by the bank OF
the Itchen, with Saint GATHERINGS Hill
in the background, and in the other he
is shown with his pupil, saying grace
before eating their luncheon beside
the River Dove. The escutcheons of
Dome, Herbert, Wotton and other as
sociates of the angler with various
plants, fishes and aquatic symbols, all
in brilliant colors, embellish the Dor
ders.

The Absent-Minded Stevenson.

A woman, writes Mr.. S. S. Mcclure

matters of domestic economy, who in
sisted upon a planned and ordered
life, would have worried Stevenson
terribly. He used to start out on his

Stevenson once went to Paris for a
pleasure trip. They had check for
$500, and some loose money, and they
meant to have thoroughly good time.
and stay as long as their money held
out. After few days they found
their funds running short; they could
not imagine what they had done
with it all, but as there seemed to
be very little left, they decided they
had better go home while it lasted.
When they got home they found the
check for $500 among the papers on
the desk. They had not cashed it at
all, and they did not even know they
had not.-Youth's COMPANION.

"roueh Wood.v

The old custom or superstition of
touching wood" to avert calamity is
probably relic of an old Danish Gus
tom that used to be performed in the
Morley district, and probably at the
Old Oak at Headingley for the Sky
rack ii. e., shire oak Wapentake, says
London Tit-Bits. The term "Wapen-
take is derived from the old Danish
custom of the men OF 9, district, at
the meeting at which they elected
their leader, touching his weapons in
token of fealty. The annual muster,
or "Wapenshaw," took place immedi-
ately-~after the "Wapentake,' so that
the kings reeve could inspect the men
and their arms. The custom of touch
ing the wooden shaft of the leaders
spear doubtless took place at this an
nual inspection. The ceremony Of
taking the salute" at modern re-
view is most likely survival of this
ancient Danish custom.

CANYON
 ROAD REMAINS
 IN COND|T|O

With the establishment of a road camp on the Black canyon road, work in earnest in repairing the Maricopa county roads has been begun. County Engineer Harold Bargman stated yes- terday that by the first of the month the short cut road to Prescott will be in better condition than ever before. One of the big new features will be the concrete dip in New river.
 For some time paving the river bot tom has been considered by the coun- ty engineer, who reported favoraby on the matter last winter. When he in spected the Black canyon road on his return from the coast week ago he decided to pave when making other necessary changes.
 While the Black canyon road is in need of repairs, found it in much bet ter shape than I anticipated" said MT. Bargman yesterday. After the heavy and continuous rains I did not expect to find a mile of the thirty five in this county in good condition. At least a third of the road is in fair shape, and unless we have rain the present work should be completed by the first of September The repair work will consist of removing boulders from the road, rebuilding waste ditches, resur- facing some of the hill grades and fill ing in the washouts. While we are engaged on the work the short cut to Prescott will not be closed. There will

GOVERNOR SOON ID NAME FOUR REGENTS
 STATE UNIVERSITY

Governor Campbell returned yester- day morning from Tucson, where he had gone to attend a joint meeting of the board of university regents and the new commission on state institutions. As there was barely quorum of the regents present, the meeting was ad- journed until next Tuesday. The chief business before the meeting was the determination of the dual powers of the regents and the commission. That was a matter that could not well be settled at this meeting, as four members of the board of regents have resigned and it is desired that these places shall be filled before this determination is reached
 The retiring members are Chancellor Hereford, William J. Bryan, Jr., Dr. L. D. Ricketts and MT. Kennedy. At some time before the adjourned meet ing Governor Campbell will announce the appointment of their successors.
 While at the university Governor Campbell made an inspection of the buildings and grounds. Satisfactory progress is being made on the new mines building and also on the exten- sion of the building for the school for the deaf and dumb. The capacity of i the latter building will be doubled. Governor Campbell started home overland and on reaching Florence was unable to cross the Gila. He spent the night there and was ferried across yes terday morning. That gave him an opportunity to visit the penitentiary for the first time since June 16. He 1 found a very satisfactory situation there. Warden Anderson has the good I will of the inmates and he is held in i high esteem by the people of Florence.

 |S READY TO-DAY

Replying to an inquiry from the of flee of the governor yesterday after noon as to when his report on condi tions at Bisbee would be submitted to the governor, Attorney General Wiley E. Jones said that it could not be presented before Friday morning as he was awaiting reports from Sheriff Wheeler of Cochise county and the Bisbee committee. It had been stated earlier in the day that the at torney general on his return from Bis bee, where he has spent the past week Investigating conditions. had said that he would offer no report: that the governor himself had been on the ground and had observed conditions: that it was not his office to direct the governor regarding his duties in the matter.
 The governor. leaving Bisbee a few days ago, was handed reports by the sheriff, by the committee and others. With the consent of those persons the governor will present the attornev general with copies of these reports to enable him to formulate his official report, that being the object of his journey to Bisbee.
 In the meantime. pending the re- port of the attorney general, the gov ernor, whatever opinion he may now entertain as to the needs of the situa = tion at Bisbee. will take no action un- til the attorney general has had an opportunity to present a report
