Silk Is taking a new position In the
realm of tailored garments. Weavers
Of 1t realize that the time Is at hand
when it must be depended on to make
up for the scarcity of wool and they
are turning out substantial and smart
looking new fabrics for street and
sports wear. These are heavy and
rough in texture, brilliant In surface
and sturdy in wearing qualities. New
fabrics are an inspiration for new
modes; designers discover possibili-
ties in them and the tailored suit, in
silk, of the immediate future fills us
with pleasant anticipations. We look
forward to exquisitely tailored clothes
made Of exquisite materials, less pro-
sale than the regulation wool suit and
equally refined and dependable. s1he
tailored suit shown in the picture
employs a familiar silk for formal
and strictly tailored coat, and skirt. 1t
is of handsome moire-effective in al
most any color-with coat cleverly cut
and having a double skirt at the sides
and back. The skirt is plain and lit
tie wider than wool skirts are in spring
suits. 1t is correct as to length for all
kinds of skirts and it's plainness is
modish for that is the destiny of all
it's kind this season.
The coat fastens to the left side at
the waistline with single big, hand
some button. The collar is interesting,
cut sailor fashion at the back and ex-
tended into wide, gracefully shaped
lapels at the front. A very narrow

chiffon collar overlays 1t at the back
and the neck opening is low. The
sleeves are moderately full and fare
little at the wrists into long points
over the hands. Along the forearm the
almost inevitable row of buttons set
close together appear to be the only
purely decorative element in the whole
composition Of the suit. The designer
must have had in mind the require
ments of tall and somewhat slender
women when he made a mental picture
of this model for it is exactly suited
to this type.
The fashion for an expanse of white
or light-colored waistcoat, or frilled or
tucked high-necked blouse, at the front
of coats that are open above the waist
line, fits in beautifully with the de-
signs for tailored suits of silk. The
high-necked blouse, which is new, and
the jabot, which has survived furore
for it, look very dainty with these
wide-open coats.

SAVING THE CITY MONEY.
Grading Work to Be Done With
out Contract.

Messrs. George w. Dunbar
and L. w. Mix have adopted a
plan for grading properties own
ed py them in the Smelter tract
that will save the city of No
gales quite a snug sum of money.
The usual procedure in such
cases is for the city to order the
work done, advertise for bids,
let a contract, and after the
work is done assess the cost to
the abutting property and col
lect it in the form of a special
tax.
This entails considerable ex-
pense in various ways, which
the city is compelled to bear. To
avoid this expense to the city,
Messrs. Dunbar and Mix decided
to do the work themselves, pay
ing for it and relieve the city
from all responsibility.
The Southwestern Realty
and Investment company, Of
which Mr.. Dunbar is president,
and Mr.. Dunbar and Captain
Mix own all but 200 feet of the
property affected by the i'm
provement. AS the, owners of
the 200 feet would not come into
the plan, the others decided to
go ahead with the work, trust
ing to the fairness of the owner
of that 200 feet to reimburse
them for their outlay for that
portion of the work.
The city council accepted pro-
files establishing the grades for
the work contemplated. at the
last council meeting, and the
grading will be started within a
few days.

 Inspiring is Address
 H. F.. Matthews, superintendent o Mesa schools, said in the course 0 his remarks:
 Previous to the organization of th American nation one dominate ide' controlled the destiny of nations. Tha idea was that the individual existe only for the state and no sacrifice ol the part of the individual was to- great if the state fancied it was nee essary. But with the birth of tn new American government a new ide

was given to the world; that the state existed for the individuals. Right there began the struggle between those two ideas which today shake the nations of the world. Germany on one side and America on the other are engaged in a death struggle to de- termine which idea shall survive.
 We fight for what we think is right: we fight against what we think is wrong. We fight that among the peoples of the world it may be estab lished that the individual of any civil ized nation may have the right to choose their own form Of government. We fight that we may have the right to make the laws which govern them.
 Soldiers of America you may go forth to this war confident that no hearth in this great land is more sa- cred than another. Let your spirits never waver. Go forth fully confident that clasped in yours is our helping hands Our trust, our prayers 80 with you that this nation may not perish from the earth.

This will be year of an abundance of fruit and vegetables in the Salt River Valley, Owing to crowded freight and express conditions on the railroads it will be impossible to get all perishable products to distant markets. It will be necessary for growers to can or dry much of their produce.

In early days he was a freighter between Ehrenberg and Prescott. For years he was at the Vulture mine. particu- larly during the administrat ton of Dr. | George H.

The Indians took him into northwestern Texas. In 1S47, after two years, he managed to escape and came westward toward California In the spring of 1859 he was at La Paz at the Colorado river. where he joined a force of 50 volunteers under Colonel Mclean, in an expedition against the Indians. Most of his service was in the Rio Grande valley around old Fort Mimbres, where his knowledge of In dian character and languages soon gave him distinction as scout.
 On one occasion, it is told that wtile scouting some distance ahead of a
 military column, he discovered a band of Indians besieging a valley ranch house. From ambush he shot down 23 of the Indians before they discov : cred his whereabouts and charged to-
