The reply was as follows:
 Vienna. June IS. 1892. My Dear Friend
 In your valued letter of the 12th of this month, which hasten to an- swer. see a fresh proof of confiding affection and friendship, which I rec iprocate with all my heart, and am very glad to put them into action.
 With regard to the occasion for your letter, the impending arrival of Prince Bismarck in Vienna, you know that. in spite of many experiences with the Prince. which were difficult to forget. my intercourse with him down to his leaving your service was alwoys open and friendly. His atti- tude in F'riedrichsruh, especially to- wards Austria would not have been enough to decide me to refuse an audi ence asked fo- as a simple act of mutual courtesy. As, however, in view of tho circumstances that the audience if granted, would render more diff cult the position of yourself and your government in your country, you at tach so high an importance to my not receiving the Prince. it goes without saying that I at once accede to your wish.
 Congratulations to you on gratify- ing course of the kiel, meeting, and begging you to lay me at the feet of the Empress, and to accept the best thanks and the best greetings Of my wife, I remain in sincere de- votion.
 Your True Friend and Cousin.

But they do not de- spair as to the cargo if the ship lies in less than 200 feet of water. Divers can operate with comparative ease at that depth.
 Many sailors recently demobilized have cast their lot with the govern ment salvage corps or with some one of the private corporations which have taken up the work. The pay is good while there is always an element of danger.

NEW CEMENT
 SHIP DIFFERS
 FROM "FAITH'

San Francisco, June 1.-The new launched at the Government Island Plant at Oakland differs materially both as to architecture and compost ton from the first concrete ship Faith
 The system of steel reinforcing of the Faith was diagonal that of the Patio Alto horizontal and vertical. The concrete aggregate used in the Faith was rock, sand and cement; that of the Palo Alto of sand, crush ed terra cotta and cement, making for lighter construction. The San Francisco Shipbuilding company, builders of the Faith, directed the construction of the Palo Alto, the work being done under inspection of the Shipping Board.
 The 'shel1'' or walls of the Palo Alto are four inches thick with the W here it is five inches in order to provide additional strength to care for the foundations of the machinery. Decks, deckhouses, cabins-in fact everything about the vessel, with the exception of few fittings and neces- sary steel appurtenances, is of con- crete.
 About six weeks hence, when the Palo Alto is ready to go into service, another concrete vessel will be launched. It is growing in its forms located next to those that held the Pa1o Alto. It will be the first "puffed brick" ship ever built and will be named the Twilight"

MISSING K. OF c.
 MAN LOCATED

Armisice day was one of jubilation for millions of New Workers, but or, that day the family of Thomas J. Enright of New York were informed l by telegraph that Enright, who was a member of the crew of U. s. sub marine-chaser stationed at Sydney, N. S., had been rC ported missing after a riskful ride in the waters of the North Atlantic. Enright was a mem Der of Marquette Council of the Knights of Columbus. His cap was the only object picked out of the wa ter by those who tried to rescue him.
 Enright's mother was anxious to hear more of him; to secure her boys body, if at all possible, so that 1t might be buTed at home in his na- Knight of Marquette Council, sent word from New York to w. R. Hearn, Grand Knight of the K. of C. Council at Sydney, Nova Scotia. to this effect. A meeting of the Sydney Council was held, and the members volunteered to keep a watch, night and day, patrolling the shore and the sea in three-hour shifts, to find the body, if it could be found.
 Through the early winter, into the winter of the North Canada coast, when the water Is icy cold and it is dangerous for men to be on 1t in open boats, the Sydney Knights combed the sea and searched every inch of the rocky coast line. Day after day and week after week the search went on, one set of members relieving an other, so that the entire council took part in the search.
 Spring came and still no sign had haa1 nf went into May, and May ran on, n unusually stormy May, when, just as the Sydney Knights were giving up all hope of being able to console, in some way, the mother heart of the woman they had never seen, the body was found, strangely preserved by the utter cold of the water in which it had remained for many weeks, and easily recognizable.
 Instantly, word was sent to New York. W. R. Hearn of Sydney and another mem Der of the K. of C. Council there, Daniel Mccarthy an nounced the fact to the people anx- iously awaiting the news in New York. They had known the young sailor as a visitor to the club main tained by the Knights for American and Canadian service men in Sydney
 
 of the New York mother even further they secured the services of the best undertaken in Sydney and MT. Hearn and Mccarthy accompanied the body to New York, Mrs. Mccarthy also making the trip and bringing with her five wreaths from the women of Sydney to Mrs. Enright, the mother of the dead sailor, as an expression of gratitude from the Canadian sea- port for her sacrifice for the com mon cause.
 Young Enright was buried with full honors at Calvary Cemetery, a, squad of 22 sailors attending the funeral. The Canadian Knights refused to ac- cept any refund for the expense they had undergone. William J. Mulliean chairman of the K. of C. committee on war activities, commenting on the case, declared it to be an instance of what the Knights had always aimed to achieve in their work sacrifice for service men wherever sacrifice would bring help to them and consolation to their families.

fOLSCdiIls JuAe 1Er 1os S Afy Dear Friend
 My firm confidence is in your friendship and affection which have so often been shown me. occasion me to submit to you a matter which ls very near to my heart.
 At the end of the month Prince Bismarck will arrive in Vienna, first ly to marry his son, and secondly to receive the ovation, which have been ordered in advance by his admirers. (You know, too. that one of his chef d'oevures. tho Secret Treaty-a double fonds-with Russia, which was con cluded behind your back, was dis solved by me.) Since the time of his retirement the Prince has, in the most perfidious manner, carried on war against me. Caprfyi, my Ministers. and so on. in the Press and in for eign countries. In doing so he is sup ported by many real bona-fide ad- gnfrers and many enemies of Capriyi, quite unintelligenIly he throws his strongest at the Triple Alliance, his own work. of which he was so proud, and above all against our firmer sol iditary and cooperating with you and your splendid people. His positively disgusting attitude towards you on
 
 is already to we'll Known to be vast ing words over. But now rnat aIf his attacks and attempts to cause a com motion appear to be paralyzed let loose the 'rongfng for reconciliation" with me and with this is once more stirring up dust and feelings.
 It Is no longer necessary to assure you that this is merely a fresh 'swirr- die" of his which is only counting nf nrf- osity of the impecile (blode) masses. He has not made the faintest attempt of an indication to me that he wishes to approach me and say "peccavi," and with aIl his cunning and art tries to make out that to app I should be the one to give way and so appear be- fore the world. The chief point of his program in this affair, he intends to be an audience of you. Most impudent- Iy ignoring my Court and the En- press, he goes to Dresden and Vienna fin ordcv to present himself there im- rrtediateiy and play the part of the faithful old man.
 In conversation with a personality who pointed out to him the tactiess- ness of this enterprise, and empha- sized your attitude towards him since the changes. he replied depracatingly, "Ah Kalnoky will soon bring him 0. mind for my own interest and in that of my Government to beg you as true friend not to make the situation fin my own country more difficult for me by receiving this disobedient sub feet before he has approached me and said "peccavi." have told those peo- pie who are ever ready to mediate that I expect from the Prince an un- au,biguous letter, fin which he makes tho raauast once more to be regarded with favor, and that before this is done I will make no step. He has not done this but, on the contrary, has said to third persons that he would ! oaiy have formal Reconciliation" ssncs, as in the past, he reserved the right of eriticizing me-

(Continued From Yesterday) Pulled Up By the Bank Messenger

 After that report the price of the drug went up at Mrs. Baynetons, and one day l realized that I was spend ing money on it at the rate of s10.o0 a dayl Incredible that seems, doesn't 1t? Seventy dollars a week! Yes. Sundays as well. But, then. what did 1t matter? I was a complete slave to the drug; I had the money. Even as the poorer class workingwoman. if enslaved by the drug, would gladly give her last dollar for one little tiny pinch, SO would the richer folks not care what they spent so long as they got it. That was all we lived for cocaine.
 Poor Sarah! How that kind friend. with whom I still lived must have dreaded me in those daysl And yet who stuck to me, trying, I suppose. to reform me.
 But it was all in vain. I was rapid ly spending the whole of my capital. Every afternoon l was at Mrs. Bay neton's flat, perhaps remaining on there to gamble until late in the evening. And besides what I lost on cards and spent on clothes and enter tainment Mrs. Merryon. the woman who had introduced me to Mrs. Bey- neton, was always sponging on me there was no other word for it. She would borrow money from me to play cards with: she would let me pay for her meals and for theatres; she would even let me pay for her hats and dresses
 But I didn't mind. So long as had plenty of cocaine I was perfectly happy and anybody could have what they wanted from me.
 But one day I got a terrible letter which gave me great fright, from my bank manager asking me to so and see him that afternoon, and I went. lie was a nice old fellow, and he spoke to me in a fatherly way. and asked me if I knew that l had spent nearly s15,0OO out of my entire for tune of s2O.000.
 This gave mo a start, and very kindly suggested that I should pull in now and think of the future. He kept me there the better part of an hour, ] should think. going through my ac- count with me, and at length I could stand it no longer. I began to feel that horrible awful. Enawing, craving coming over me again. It was just the time for my dose. Mrs. Bayneton's rat was some distance off. Another ten minutes and I felt I should be screaming aloud.
 Every minute, every second the feeling became worse, and at length jumped up and told the bank man ager to go to the devil-oh, ,es. it's how a refined girl can

that the water tainted with OIL In the spring when
water became low the well was drilled few feet deeper
with the result that better flow found and oil
appeared During the last two years the we'll has not
been used the cattle disposed of and Mr. Brmhal
has been spending most of his time at Mesa He returned
recently and when the we'll was opened the water was
found to be so full of oil the cattle would not drink it.
The finding of the oil has created considerable excite
ment and oil claims are beng staked off daily in the
vicinity of the we'll by enthusiastic parties.

Tax On SOdas and Most
Everything Now in Force

Carry a few pennies in your
pockets these days. Uncle Sam
is going to take them away from
you to help pay for the war.
The law went into effect yes
terday MAY u and every time
you spend a dime at soda foun-
tain or ice cream parlor you'll
have to throw an extra penny
on the counter to pay the war
tax.
Many soda fountains which
charged Is cents for ice cream
sodas and sundaes during the
war haved reduced the price
back to 10 cents, but you're like
ly to see signs over their foun-
tains reading:
'Sodas and sundaes now IL
cents"
The tax on ice cream and soft
drinks is only one of the many
which went into effect under
the revenue act on May 1. The
most important Of these are the
so-called luxury taxes" which
were written into the revenue
bill before it became apparent
to our congressman that they
were unnecessary.
An attempt was made to pass
a bill repeating them before con-
gress adjourned. 1t is likely it
will be repealed during the COM
ing special session, but until
then we'll have to pay 'em.

University Man To Lecture
On MineralOgy

George R. Fansett. Mining
Engineer, of the Arizona Bureau
of Mines of the University
of Arizona will give the free lee
ture Practical Mineralogy for
the prospector" in Snowflake,
Friday, May g., at P. M.
This lecture and demonstration
has meet with unusual favor in
the towns and mining camps of
southern Arizona, the tour of
which has been completed. This
is probably due to the fact that
Mr.. Fansett handles the demon
straton in such a way that any
one after attending the lecture
should be able to make the tests
himself and should be able to
test his own samples and thus
detect any valuable metals con-
tanned in them.
The testing of minerals is some
thing everybody in this highly
mineralized section surrounding
Snowflake should know how to
do for himself. Since this lee
ture IS just what many prospec-
tors, stockmen, and ranchers
have been looking for. it is hoped
that as many as possible will
take advantage of this opportun-
ity offered by the University and
attend this free lecture which
will be held in Social Hall on Fri
day May, 9th. at s P. M.

Santa Fe Railway to
Discard Wood Ties

The Santa Fe system, whose
head succeeds McAdoo as Rail-
road Administrator, is contem-
plating replacing wood ties on
its main lines with steel.
The proposed tie is hollow,
pressed steel, weighing 125 lbs.
and costs placed in the roadbed
about $3.15.
Wooden ties cost $1.25 before
treatment which adds some to
price.
Railroads have for a number
of years been unsuccessfully
experimenting in use of steel
ties.
This only illustrates need of a
general awakening of western
interests to a concerted cam
paign of education to promote
lumber industry in every con-
ceivabIe manner as it is one Of
the vests great industries.

Predicts Another World
War in the Year 1926

There will be another world
war beginning in June, 1926,
according to a writer in the
British Journal of astrology in
London. This prophet, who
signs himself ''Sepharial," asks
for serious hearing inasmuch
as he claims to have published
year in advance in each case the
date of the war of 1919 and of
the cessation of hostilities.
THE first phase of the next
war, he writes, will begin
with Turkey. whose perfdy will
lead to its final overthrow in
1922. This time Prussian in
trigue will dominate
the position in the neal east,
affecting Greece, Turkey and
Russia. But according to my
calculations the great crisis will
not be reached until June, 1926.
In this great war, which may
be regarded as Prussia's counter
of the war of 1914-18, the mall
evolent forces take their rise in
Vienna and Berlin, ascend to
Petrograd, penetrate thru the
whole of Russia and descend via
the Black Sea and Turkey"
Another allied victory is pre-
dicted by "SephariaI. F."

Says Clean Up"

Mayor Jos. w. Smith has or
dered a general clean up of the
town. Everyone is requested to
remove rubbish and all unnec-
essary accumulation of trash on
his premises with the purpose
in view of making Snowflake a
clean, sanitary and more beau
tiful town. This clean up move
ment has become quite popular
in all towns throughout the state
this spring. A lot of trash
around a place creates fly breed
ing and makes seat for germs.

Gil Tuesday night T. w. Tanner
handed in his resignation as
marshal on account of being abb
sent from the town, and William
Gibson was appointed in his
place. Mr.. Gibson is not a new

but what he will make a first
class peace officer.
