r. GRANT SCHOOL |S
 DOING WELL, REPORT OF STATE TREASURER

State Treasurer Ross, in his capacity as a member of the board of directors of state institutions, returned yester- day from his first visit to the state industrial school at Fort Grant, and reports himself to be well pleased with the school and it's conditions. as well as the proposed improvements to be made.
 While I have never visited Fort Grant before" said MT. Ross yester- day, T had been at some pains to get information on it, and 1 was not in the least disappointed; in fact, what I saw somewhat exceeded my expectations. I made a careful survey of the entire plant, the buildings, grounds, farm, stock, methods of instruction, water supply and numerous other points and was we'll pleased to find the institu- ton in fine shape considering the va rious handicaps under which it is be- | ing operated.
 "The two new dormitories just being started are very badly needed and a large amount of repairing and bringing down to date should be done with the present buildings which the state in- herited from the government. Unfor- tunately we have no appropriations to 1 make the repairs that should be made to the old buildings. In my opinion, it is highly essential that the sur roundings of those boys should be made as homelike as possible it has the greatest possible effect for good. Superintendent Larsen has made the place as homelike and comfortable as possible under the circumstances, and the boys seem to be well contented. There have been no attempted run aways for some weeks.
 "A great deal of credit should be given to Bandmaster Gung1 for the 1 excellent organization ne has fathered and to the entire staff for the excellent discipline of the school.
 At the suggestion of Superintendent Larsen. the board has decided to have the high stockade fence around the school taken down and the S6 strands ; of barbed wire used to fence in the 2o00 acres of pasture to keep the schoo stock in and others out"

 PHOENIX HUNTERS

Sports afield were never more allur- ing, more lucrative than Sunday. Fields were alive with doves and white wings and sportsmen, too, for the latter took advantage of the unusual weather con- ditions. Sundays bag, collectively, was undoubtedly the largest of the season
 Scores reported limit bags during the day. The shooting, they said, was extraordinarily good and climatic con- ditons were most favorable to the sportsmen.
 Great flocks of doves and white wings both were reported in the Arl- ington- Buckeye district, where scores of hunters went in search of game. Other favorite spots were south of Chandler and along the Arizona canal between Granite Reef dam and Phoe- nix.
 Many local residents are daily wend ing their way into the White moun- tains for trout fishing, it is reported.

PEN SENTENCE FUR
 INDIAN BUY LEGAL

In answer to an inquiry from the
 governors office as to whether T. Ill.,
 goth, 15-year old Navajo Indian boy, can be legally confined in the state penitentiary after conviction for man.
 slaughter, Assistant Attorney General Francis J. K. Mcbride yesterday gave out an opinion to the effect that the lad was legally there and that in spite
 of his youth, the gravity of his crime
 made the prison the legal place for him. Frank E. McCrary parole clerk at the prison, instigated the movement to send the lad to the state reform
 school. He was of the opinion that
 owing to the boys youth he had no
 business in the state prison.
 Mcbride ruled that no matter how young the boy is as long as jury | found him capable of committing a crime and he was sentenced for that crime, especially if 1t be a felony, he | would have to serve his time in the penitentiary. He called attention,
 though. to the statutes which made it illegal for a boy under IS to be con-

At the Inn, Saturday.
 Thank heaven, Joan Darlint, I am still young enough to look crisp despite a sleepless night! Not that I wanted to sleep particularly. Waking dreams are often sweetest. So I lay there with moonlight streaming across the water and over the creamy sand and through my window and over my bed while imagination made melodrama in my mind.
 I saw the monstrous working Of war. With Eric Wallis l. passed through it's hundred hells. And with him finally came back to normal life again, where people live and move in peaceful occupations and actually know what laughter is, and small talk, and pretty pleasures.

 This, Joan, find to be the aim not only of myself but of everybody else at the hotel Men. women and children have banded together with the one ap- parent purpose of diverting my war rior if not actually capturing and binding him with chains of flowers! | Rich, self important business men corral him in porch corners. How're you fixed, Cap'n?' l hear them ask. Found your niche, old man, in the workaday. Got your civil career mapped and charted? Because if you're thinking of anything in my l 1o hnnnrnd n ha my friend anderbillion-" etc. etc.
 The wives of these men fall over one another getting up parties for him.
 Dear fellow How he must long to see some nice girls and enjoy social life again Er-did you say he has money? Oh, a writer. I simply adore writers. So subtle and-er-wonder- full. I wonder if he could help Mar jorie with her essays"
 And the GIRLS-Well, Joan, I car only remark that MT. B. Shaw puts il mildly when he says it is the woman who does the pursuing, not the man Debutantes, ripe social blossoms in tellectual collegiettes and wistful wall flowers all have their nets spread, anC some are using the harpoon. My owr

 The captain took his rescues quietl. but gratefully, I thought. We wen sailing, and I sent paen of thank to high heaven that I had learne about living on the shores of Lak Erie.

How wonderful it is," he said, as if he were thinking aloud, ito be here, with all this" he made a gesture that took in the land and sea, the sky and all the people of the earth, and YOU, doing so much for me-" His gesture finally settled into a leaning of his whole body toward me.

 Everybody is being nice to you went on. You're a war ar-lion, you know"
 That's just it. If I hadn't the khaki and the feathers and those stripes on the sleeve would they do it?' "Oh, I think they might" I grinned consideringly. (Oh, Joanie, I try to be light and casual for fear of showing that l, too, am a-prowl!)
 T believe YOU might. You'd bt good to a baldheaded man with g squint. You're different. And you haven't an ax to grind"
 'Oh, haven't I thought"
 He looked at me in that quiet searching way he has.

REPORTS RANGES IN
 FIRST GLASS SHAPE

Range conditions are excellent and will be better as the season advances, throughout the southeastern portion CT the state, according to Ed. Stephens, secretary of the state livestock sanitary board, who has just returned from a trip to Tucson and other points.
 "Stockmen in that section are ju- bilant." said Mr. Stephens yesterday. "The recent rains, they say, have made certain a liberal supply of range feed for the remainder of the season, that will carry the cattle into the winter in fine condition, and make available this fall large supply of marketable cattle in good shape at a fair market price.
 "The roads I found reported to be pretty badly washed and rough, with miniature lakes where the dust was a short time ago.

STATE WON'T KEEP UP
 COL. HARRIS OFFICE

The state of Arizona will not pay the rent of the property occupied by Col onel Charles W. Harris, where he is still maintaining office as adjutant general in spite of the appointment of Captain Walter S. Ingalls,. A letter to that effect was recently despatched to the agent of the property. J. s. Griffin (Alone), as follows:
 This is to advise you that this de- partment has nothing whatever to do with the renting of the premises at 1903 West Washington, and will not o. K. any claims for rent against the state of Arizona for these premises. The office of the adjutant general is

TRAFFIC ORDINANCE
 v|0LATORS PAY UP

The automobile drivers of Phoenix are contributing in the neighborhood of $500 a month to the city for the privi- lege of parking their autos as they please and for other violations of the city traffice regulations
 A constant stream of violators of the ordinance call upon Judge Thomas every day and every one of them leaves his s as a reminder not to do it again.
 According to Traffic Officer Ander- son, the following are the sections of the ordinance most frequently violated:
 'On all streets of the city of Phoe- nix, all vehicles stopping at the curb shall be driven along the side of the curb in such a manner that the right hand side of such vehicle in the direc- tion of the traffic shall be parallel with the curb when such vehicle is stopped and at a distance not greater than one foot therefrom.
 "On all streets where stalls are pro- vided in the center of said street, 20 minutes shall be allowed for parking along the curb"
 l The above ordinance relating to all lowing machines to park along the curb for 20 minutes only, is broken more than all the rest put together. In spite of the fact there is only one officer detailed to seeing that ma- chimes do not finger near the curb more than 20 minutes, and that he can only make his rounds every hour or so, many machines overstay It is seldom that machine is tagged until it has rested in one spot for more than two hours.
 Another section frequently broker is the sixth paragraph of the traffic ordinance which states that mo vehicle shall be stopped in any alley within the business district of the city ex- cept for the purpose of loading ant unloading merchandise and baggage and then only for such time as shal actually be necessary for such pur pose"

 Captain Walter S. Ingalls, in the meantime is cozily installed in the room formerly occupied by the aoiu- tant general in the capitol, number 30S and is attending to the duties of his office. The legal action instituted to determine whether Colonel Harris or Captain Ingalls, is adjutant general, has not yet been decided.
