 SCHEME FAILURE

The Sabbath was signalized at Mesa yesterday by a piece of strong arm work staged by three strange MeXicans in a hotel where they had secured a room as a place for conducting busi- ness. The next step was to find some one with whom to do business and he was discovered in the person of Ignacio Fernandez who had just finished work ing in d wood camp where he had ac- cumulated the sum of s49.64.
 Fernando was on his way to town when he was met by the strangers who gave him a lift and then took him to their room. There they went after him without preliminary ceremony. He put up fight but was carved, though not seriously and overcome. All of his money except a few pennies was taken
 As soon as word reached the sher- ifs office of the robbery officers start ed from Phoenix and soon picked up one of the strange Mexicans at or near Tempe. He yielded something more than $14 of Ignacio's money, indicat- ing that there had not been a quite equal division of the plunder He was left in jail at Tempe to be taken back to Mesa today.

This is a feature of the work that is sure to grow with time, and is certainly - deserving of all the sup port that American money can give it.
 Fighting the high death rate from tuberculosis is a branch which VIII also grow in importance. Half q million people in France have been added to the rolls of the tubercular as direct result of the war. Control of the plague is not only vitally inn portant to France, but also to the health of American troops quartered in the country. Most of this work Is being done by native French workers.
 Such relief work in France cannot be called pure altruism from the na- Etional standpoint. France is in need of the assistance because the ma jority of her men are in the army Our own military forces require preparation, but into the medical and relief work we are able to throw a considerable number of trained peo- pie from the beginning.
 Civilian relief work has thou sand other branches, all of them i'm
 portant The rebuilding of ruined villages, for example, has called for a large sum- The branches of mili- tary relief are better known, includ- ing hospitals, canteens, ambulance work and so forth. Altogether $40 000.0 will probably be needed In France up to the 30th of April of this year By that time the organ iZation will be operating on scale which will require large sums for it's upkeep, in addition to what may be necessary for expansion, but there is little doubt that any necessary funds will be forthcoming when the American people realize the need. The most important recent re- velopment in. the Red Cross program has been the increase of money ap- propriated for Italian relief. The recent Italian retreat made hundreds of thousands of civilians hungry and homeless. An emergency appropria- tion of almost S5000,000 was made to meet the situation. and the work
 was rushed to the greatest possible extentd. Not only was physical re- lief provided, but an indirect result of the work proved of unexpected importance.
 This was the political effect of the presence of American relief workers | American .ambulances and. American food. The entire Italian nation was 1 honeycombed with German propa- ganda. One tale that the German: spread was to the effect that the l United States would not stand b1 Italy because we feared to antagoniz'
 Austria Hungary. American Rec Cross work was the only mean:
 available for counteracting this false
 hood. for no American troops could be sent, and Congress was not il session to put the nation on record
 But the Red Cross workers succeeded | in dispelling this misapprehension. Al
 the man in charge cabled, What | ever we have done or failed to do

 from one end of Italy to the other.
 Gauged by the size of the appro

 SEEK MEMBERS
 WITH CAMPA|GN

The annual membership campaign for the Y. M. c. A.. of Phoenix takes place next week. Following the custom of many years. one week is set aside in which to obtain members, and is called Right Away Week for the Y. M. C. A
 A goal of 1000 members has been set a number of times to be reached in these campaigns, but thus far the lar sest membership ever obtained at one time has been 800. This year the goal is again set at 1000, but it is believed that there will be little difficulty in finally reaching that number.
 Because everyone is so busy this year the week campaign is to be con- ducted in three days, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. The directors of the Y. NJ C. A., will meet with the business men of the city at a monday luncheon on Wednesday at F o'clock when teams will be selected and the city divided for the campaign. The plan this year, instead of giving the teams certain persons to visit, is to divide the city into sections and assign the teams to sections. There will be 8 free luncheon at the Y. M. C. A. each day for the workers.

An Appreciation of Codowsky's Musicianship

came in the order of natural colors for each one seemed to be the di- rect opposite, in mood and mode, of the other.
 Out of the 'Intermezzo," No. 3. by Brahms, he wove gossamer webs of tone, so filmy that melody and har- mony seemed to float in the air be- fore our very eyes. In the Spinning Song, by Menhlessohn, he enticed Eolian ZephyrS from moony nights that were re-echoed from hidden worlds, and out of that sheen of playful bubbling tones the imagina- tion reached supernal celestial heights and none but dumb discordant ears could have failed to follow the flight into Elysium. With the Marche Mill taire, by Schubert Tausig, with its compelling march ferver, our feet would not behave. and the culver of heroic enthusiasm was running ram- pant up and down the spine of every listener. But in the Fantasie, Im- promptu. by Chopin; the Concert Etude, by Liszt, and his own Humer- esQue. he wove silken chiffon tone
 embroideries, lace and tapestries of melody and harmony. All this and more. he uncovered in these exhorta .
 tions of musical composition. The delicacy and refinement of his play ing and of his interpretation. can best be likened to a starry night with moonbeams dancing upon a
 path of diamonds.
 Come our way again, Leopold. and make us to forget days, wheatless and meatless, the sorry scheme. oi

which until then had been occupied by
