Dirty Plano Keys.

1t IL more important to keep the
keys clean than, many people are
aware, especially If several students
are practising on the same instrument.
Dirty keys are source of infection.
They should be wiped with damp
cloth every day. Not so wet that the
water runs down between the keys,
but sufficient to cleanse them Of all
matter. Dry with a soft cloth, and
close the piano when the room is be-
ing swept, but open the lid after
wards, as ivory keys require light in
order to keep them from turning yel-
low.

A correspondent asks advice regard

parkway in front of his home.
Several people advised elms," he
writes, but they are such slow grow

like to plant some kind that I will
have chance to enjoy. I am also
thinking of planting four fruit trees
in the yard, probably three cherries,
as they seem to do better than most
fruit trees, and a pear or an apple"
The American elm Is by far the
best tree for this purpose. 1t grows

again to the flat plain on the north shore. The scenery was beautiful. It was as thoroughly tropical as Panama, but much more livable. There were palms. tree-ferns, bananas, mangoes. bamboos and many other trees and mfltitudes of brilliant flowers. There was one vine called the dream wine with flowers as big as great white water lilies which close up tight in the day time and bloom at night. There were vines with masses of bril- liant purple and pink flowers, and others with masses of little white flowers, which at night time smell deliciously. There were trees stud ded over with huge white flowers, and others. the flamboyants such as I saw in the campaign at Santiago. are a mass of large scarlet blossoms in June, but which now had shed them. I thought the tree-ferns especially beau tiful The towns were just such as you saw in Cuba, quaint, brilliantly colored, with the old church or ca thedraL fronting the plaza, and the plaza always full of flowers Of course the towns are dirty. but they are not nearly as dirty and offensive as those of Italy;s and there is something pa thetic and childlike about the people. We are giving them a good govern ment and the island is prospering. never saw a finer set of young fel- lows than those engaged in the ad- ministratiOn. MT. Grahame, whom uL course you remember, is the intimate friend and ally of>the leaders of the administration, that is of Governor Beekman Winthrop and of the secre- tary of state, MT. Regis Post. Gra- name is a perfect trump and such a Handsome, athletic fellow, and real Sir Galahad. Any rong-doing, and especially any cruelty makes him flame with fearless indignation. He perfectly delighted the Porto Ricans and also immensely puzzled them by coming in his Scotch kilt to a gov ernment ball. Accordingly, at my spe- cial request. I had him wear his kilt at the state dinner and reception the night we were at the palace. You know he is a descendant of Montrose, and although born in Canada, his par ents were Scotch and he was educated in Scotland. Do tell MT. Bob Fergie about him and his kits when you next write him.
 We spent the night at the palace, which is half palace and half castle, and was the residence of the old Span ish governors. It is nearly 400 years old, and is delightful building, with quaint gardens and a quaint sea wall looking over the bay. There were colored lanterns lighting up the gar dens for the reception, and the view across the bay in the moonlight was lovely. Our rooms were attractive as possible too, except that they were so very airy and open that we found it difficult to sleep-not that that mattered as, thanks to the earliness of our start and the lateness of our reception, we had barely four hours in which we even tried to sleep.

ant. saying the former never makes improvements until asked to by the latter. All who pay rent know the dlI- faculties which attend the securing of improvements on the property Well that is just the Kind of a time Phoenix has been having with the rail- roads. Of course, there are eXcep- tions among landlords. I have one for instance. who is a good business man, who is ready to listen to my SuS- gestions for Improvements, and who IS willing to cooperate with me by pro viding them But the railroads have not shown themselves to be like him They seem to have the characteristic landlord attitude-take what you get, you won't get what you want
 There's one thing about this land lord-tenant arrangement that is. al ways evident. That is the average landlord keeps his ears closed to re- quests for improvement, but keeps both eyes open for the rent. Also. the tenant is always at the mercy of the landlord if the latter is prosperous, but the landlord is at the mercy or the tenant if he is asleep.
 Now, I think MT. Jones a very ca pable man and one who has kept the trust which the public has placed in him. I am sure that he and his fel- commissioners will do all in their power to secure a splendid, sanitary. slightly station Tor Pnoenlx, ana @ Sint sure that in their efforts they VIII find themselves backed solidly by the community. But I do feel that Mr. Jones does the town and citizens an injustice when he intimates that it IS negligence on their part which has caused the inaction of the railroads

We had to cross two or three rivers where big to their horns pulled the automobiles through the water. At one funny little village we had an open air lunch, very good, of chicken ar1nseggs and bread, and some wine contributed by a wealthy Spaniard who rode up from a neighboring coffee ranch
 Yesterday afternoon we embarked again. and that evening the crew gave theatrical entertainment on the afterdeck, closing with three boxing bouts. I send you the program. It was great fun, the audience being equally enraptured with the sentiment tai songs about the flag, and the sail or's true love and his mother, and with the jokes (the most relished of which related to the fact that bed bugs were supposed to be so large that they had to be shot,) and the skits about the commissary and various persons and deeds on the ship. In way the free dom of comment reminded me a lit tie of the Roman triumphs, when the excellent legendaries recited in versa and prose, anything they chose conl cerning the hero in whose deeds they were ecelebrating. The stage, wei lighted, was built on the aftermost >fart of the deck. We sat in front with the officers and> the sailors be- hind us in masses on the deck, on the aftermost turrets, on the bridge, and even in the fighting top of the aftermost mast It was interesting to see their faces in the light.
 
 P. S.zI forgot to sell you about the banners and inscriptions of welcome to me Porto Rico. One of them which stretched across the road had on it, Welcome to Theodore and Mrs. joyed a rather funny experience. There is an Army and Navy Union composed chiefly of enlisted men, put also of many officers, and they sud denly held garrison" meeting in the torpedo room of this ship. There were about 50 enlisted men together with the captain and myself.

Where The People
 May Have a Hearing
The Union Station

To the Editor of the Republican:
 In the issue of the 18th. read with a great deal of interest a statement by Corporation Commissioner F. A Jones in The Arizona Republican. In his statement was the welcome inti- nation that the time might not be far away when Phoenix would get union station, and also the suggestion that if Phoenix had taken steps toward se- curing such an improvement it might have been secured long time ago. In effect he says that Phoenix has made no serious effort to remedy the condition caused by its unsightly rail- rad depots.
 In very few instances has a town and it's citizens cried out so loudly and so consistently for any improvement as has Phoenix for a union station. or for two new stations. By means of gatherings, mass meetings. committees, newspaper editorials and petitions, have the citizens of Phoenix sought better depot accommodations. They have pleaded and ridiculed and threat ened, but the railroad companies have only turned deaf ear to their com plaints.
 Now it seems MT. Jones would have us believe the companies never heard of the matter, nor even themselves took note of the appearance of the present box -depots until the corporation com mission called it to their attention a few days ago.
 I have been in Phoenix and the vii cinity for the past 25 years, and know of the efforts made by the cit izens to secure decent treatment from the railroads. I know that in every game the railorads held an ace. while the citizens held a king. An I will not feel sure that the corporation commission holds the best hand even now until all the cards are on the table and the pot is taken in-e Mr.-Jones likens the railroads and the people to a landlord and his ten
