Lincoln cut but small figure in social circles. His trousers were too short, his hat too small, and as a rule the buttons on the back of his coat were nearer the shoulders than the waist"
 A friend says, even more briefly: He simply wore clothes because it was needful and customary" Even Mrs. Doncoln, who was often concerned over her distinguished husbands indepen- dence, had little influence on his meth ods of attiring himself
 These illustrations of Lincolns at titude toward dress are not given in support of disregard for personal ap- pearance. Lincoln's appearance at first sight repelled more than it at tracted. Such incidents as these do show, however, that Lincoln had not that prevalent tendency of America to spend its earnings extravagantly on expensive clothes and other luxuries.
 Lincoln's simplicity, which was never pose, is illustrated by an anecdote similar to the remembered story of Benjamin Franklin marching into Boston with three enormous rolls bulg- ing from pockets and mouth. Lincoln, it seems, went Franklin one better by conspicuously carrying home the fam hS 5AOICA lto. W ildl- CTleu d ntlS0- bor, when told that Lincoln was a can didate for the presidency, "Abe Lincoln l nominated for President of the United States? Can it be possible? A man that buys a 10-cent beefstead for his breakfast and carries it home him. self"

 Abe Lincolns philosophy of money is | interesting because of it's soundness and simplicity. If can have a house such as the one I now own in Spring field and put away s20,0O0, shall be satisfied" he more than once said
 Many an American today has no ann bition to put more than S20, 900 away for the future. The usual difference between the modern use Of surplus cash and Abraham Lincoln's is that

DRAWS ATTENTION
 TO BELOW GROUND
 SUPPLY IF WATER

George IT, Maxwell spoke at the Xii wanis club luncheon yesterday on the same subject as his last address before the Rotary club, Gold Mines and Wa ter Mines"
 He again drew attention to the three branches into which he divides the wa ter problems of Arizona:
 First, the principle of the United States reclamation act, which requires that the government shall get it's mon- ey back from the lands reclaimed. The same principle controls the new plan of Secretary Lane for farms for sol diers. that being in effect merely an sion of the reclamation act opera tions.
 Second, the Newlands river regula- ton plan. under which the government would do everything necessary and practicable, in cooperation with the states and local interests, to regulate and standardiZe the flow of all r.vers and their source streams, but without undertaking to charge it's expenditures against any particular land. This principle, said Maxwell, is merely an enlargement of the river improvement policy under which the government has expended several hundred millions in river improvements, like the levees and the Mississippi river reservoirs, in the eastern half of the United States principally.
 Third, the great works like the pro- posed power dam on the Colorado river between California and Nevada, with high line diversion canals in Nevada, California and Arizona, to bring the water up onto the mesa lands where the silt can be deposited before the water returns to the river.
 The speaker said the Roosevelt dam was built under the first system be- cause it offered the best opportunity in the west for demonstration. The best opportunity for a demonstration under the river regulation plan is the Gila river. And the best opportunity for the greater works is the Colorado river.
 Maxwell Illustrated the resemblance between the water mines and the gold mines by reference to the great Mount Morgan mine or Broken Hill mine where he said for many years the peo- pie living around the mountain graZed their sheep over it without ever sus- pecting that it was a huge low grade deposit. which was eventually discov- cred to be of enormous value and had been developed into one of the greatest mines of Australia What is under ground and cannot be seen is aiway: slow to he appreciated, but when, its value is demonstrated, then the people

Vaudeville Today at Columbia

Good music. a novelty comedy act, feature speciality by talented Indian girl, and a first class singing and dancing act, together with three film offerings, constitutes the program be- ing offered at the Columbia theater afternoon and night today.
 The vaudeville numbers are, for the first time since Hippodrome vaude- vile was inaugurated at the Columbia, of the best type. Really clever and tal- ented performers make up the program of four acts and theater- goers are as- sured of something out of the ordinary in this offering, presented for the last times today.
 Leo Filler, violin soloist, is a per former far surpassing the ordinary talent usually seen on the vaudeville stage He has just recently arrived in America from Italy, where for four years he took an active part in the world struggle for freedom. He wears his service ribbons and wound stripes But Fillic rcomes to Phoenix as a mu- sician--not as a soldier or ex-soldier and he more than qualities His tech nique and soulful expression surpasses any thing heard in Phoenix in months His distinctively unique style of play ing wins the hearts of all who hear him.
 Case and Case present a comedy act that is indeed unique. The opening is as clever a bit of stagecraft as tho vaudeville stage affords, but this is

ADJUSTMENTS
'POLLYANNA' WAS READ
 ALL OVER THE WORLD

Mrs. Eleanor H. Porter wrote the "Pollyanna" glad book that Catherine Chisholm Cushing has based the opti- mistic comedy 'Pollyanna," coming to the Columbia theater Friday and Sat urday, February IA and 15. There will be a matinee Saturday afternoon.
 The tranquil philosophy and serenity of split reflected in Mrs. Porter's stories are the outcome of her own manner of life She has lived quiet and domestic existence in New Eng land since girlhood. One of her gifts was a beautiful soprano voice and she sang frequently in Boston concerts and church choirs. But a public career was distasteful and after an early marriage, she settled down to the development of her talents as a story teller.
 The mental attitude is affected by one's environment Mrs. Porter loves the solitude of nature. but as her hus- bands mercantile interests are in Cam bridge. a Boston suburb, she hit upon the happy expedient of finding seclu- sion in little rose -embowered roof garden studio atop her residence. It is there that she wrote her Polly anna" books.
 "I can concentrate there" says Mrs Porter. "and I feel as much cut off from the rasping rattle and turmoil of the big city as if 1 had buried my self in the depths of Maine wilder ness. Then too. the best regulated for | est in the world isn't steam heated and my studio is. I can write as easily and comfortably when the blizzardS are sweeping over Boston Common as when the spring breezes whisper theil | tender message that nature has re- stunned a smiling, joyous mood"

wake up all of sudden to it's develop ment and utilization.
 As soon as the people of the Salt River valley wake up to the fct that they have great unseen reservoir fllled with water and constantly refill ing, they will be as enthusiastic as they were about the Roosevelt dam as soon as the fact became assured that the government would build 1t. And the two reservoirs, the surface reservoir and the underground reser- voir make a combination which as sured the Salt River valley the most stable water supply of any region Of the irrigated sections of the world. Many sections which he mentioned have an underground supply only and are constantly threatened by the dan ger of the permanent lowering of their water table. In this valley, he said, there can be no such thing as n perrna- nent lowering of that underground supply, because it is constantly being replenlshed from the original sources of supply for the valley.
 Mir. Maxwell urged that the entire strength of every man in the district should be concentrated on the imme- diate construction of pumping svstcm that would lower the water table on every acre on which it had risen 10 a level that was detrimental to the Iana, and that after that the whole Ian should be to hold the water table down but conserve the water in the under ground reservoir at a sufficient depth to cause no injury, but 10 be available to supplement the surface supply at any time when it might be needed for that purpose. so that every acre in the system would have an ample supply every year.

AnqeIica Mendez at the EIks

Before another large and representa- tive audience, Sonora Angelica Mendez again last night scored a marked sue cess in the leading role in the three act comedy "Malvaloca," being ably assisted by her capable company of IT people. Spanish-American resi- dents of Phoenix and vicinity are es- pecially pleased with the selection of plays during the engagement of Sonora Mendez in this city this week. The al ternating of dramas and comedies has proven to be a wise choice.
 The versatility of the members of the companyis demonstrated in the dances and the musical numbers which are interpolated between the acts. No Spanish American resident of the city should miss the opportunity of seeing this beautiful actress. Angelica Men dez, as another opportunity will not be offered them for long time.
 The bill for this evening will be one of the strongest in the entire repetoire of the company, the six-act drama. "Malditas Sean les Mujeres." In this drama Sonora Mendez is cast in her happiest role, as is also Caesar Men deZ. the leading man. New songs and dances will be presented between the acts
