Washington, Sept. 12.-Japan has
won her first big diplomatic victory,
in connection with the coming in

interests are being discussed, but the
rules of the conference, its problems

put China on plane of equality with
the major powers. The japanese press
seemed to see in the move a desire

the other hand, has from the first

international harmony and peace, an6

move sources of friction and possible
causes of war, America is anxious Il

lady from Constantinople, who
has probably been reading
some of Zane Grey's novels
and Buck Connor's short
stories, has put in a bid with
the forest service for a posi-
ton as look -out in the Pres
colt national forest.
Forest service officials are
just a little excited over the
prospect of a feminine inva-
sion--especially so. as the first
signs come from the land of
the harem-but as the lady
cannot arrive here before fall
they are holding the matter in
allegiance for the time-and

have figured who to pass the
buck TO by the time a decision
is necessary.

RELIC OF FIRST
SATURDAY NIGHT
BATH MEETSEND

More than two thousand
Saturday nights ago it was in
stalled in all its grandeur, and
the alkaline water of the val
ley puzzled sweetly through its
faucets. But a nemesis on the
ineNorable cleanliness it in

buquerque's first bath tub.
A Kansas City plumber
made it. II was of the usual
kind OF forty years ago, tin,
soldered together and enam-
eled, and surrounded by Il
wooden frame. The enamel
used to peel off, and became
unpleasantly slivery the solder
cracked and the wood at the
base of the tub became danA
and unpleasant smelling and
rotted away. old -timers'
remember the kind, and a
number Of them recall this
one.
But this was the first bath
tub ever brought to Albuquer-
que, and it appeared as ele-
CANT as any marble Roman
bath. II was the luxurious at
recitation OF one Conrad shin

a bachelor, and was the

The building is one of the

work was delayed because Of

ing a permit Tor alterations"
Recently, however, a permit
for repairs was obtained and
the owners are proceeding, bur
the poor old bath tub is no
more.
When this sybaritic conven-
fence was installed a large re-

ing similar community camping
grounds in the upper Pecos coun-
try.
Although the representative
will take the matter up further
with their respective chambers of
commerce, there is little doubt but
that both cities will adopt the
plans.
A site on the Pecos river along
the, box canyon below the falls,
which are several miles above
Cowlcs, was tentatively chosen for
the Tulia camp. Several locations
are being considered by Mr.. Jones
for Clovis.
Platforms for tents will prob

officials predict that before the
season is over many such camps
will be in the process of construc-
