DEATH OF JUDGE A. c. BAKER

One by one the old Arizona pioneers are being called to their reward The death of Alexander c. Baker, Asso- ciate Justice of the Arizona Supreme Court, is cause for genuine regret throughout the state where he was held in high regard and esteem by all who had enjoyed his acquaintance. Judge Baker belongs to the old school of Arizonans, coming to the state in 1882. He was a lawyer of rare at tainment, Judge whose decisions were founded on the law and justice a man possessed of lovable and kind nature, loyal to his state, and a true and staunch friend Among the old timers Judge Baker will be mourned as true friend and an up right and honorable man.
 During the territorial days Judge Baker served on the supreme court bench, he was member of the state constitutional convention, where he was regarded as possessing a reliable legal mind and one knowing what should be incorporated in the funda mental statutes of his estate; he, like others in that body, was overruled or numerous provisions of the constitu tion, but he lived to see a regretfu sentiment because of some things put in the constitution which he opposed Judge Baker was engaged in public duties during the greater part of the many years he resided in Arizons and no one ever suggested that he had ever been unfaithful to any of his public trusts. He was efficient 1T public duty and reliable in all his pri vate undertakings. His loss will no only cause deep sorrow among those who had intimate acquaintance witf him, but it will be distinct lass tt the state and to the high court O which he was a member.

Ernest Seton Thompson Says
Clothing is Greatest Bar to
Morality.

Pittsburg, Jan. 6. - "Why wear
clothes?" asked DR.. Ernest Thompson
Seton, the celebrated naturalist, here yes

gagement at local theatre as a vaude-
vile artist, his first season in that role,
giving a fifteen-minutc talk on various
nature topics.
s'Sex morality" went on DIR. Seton,
in answer TO his question, "has no re-
lation to clothing, as is proved by the
naked tribes of East Africa, who arc the
most moral people in the world in their
natural state, but who always take u
downward step morally when compelled
by missionaries 10 wear clothing. The
shorter the dress of the female and the
lower the neck of her bodice, the greater
her moral influence and the greater her
tendency to health.
"The soldiers of the United States
Army, compelled TO wear high collars
and tight-about-the-neck clothing, show
an average Of diseases of the throat OF
43 per 1000, while the sailors of the
United States, with more exposed lte
and collars wide open and low, show but
81 60 1000 with throat troubles.
"1he costumes of the women of to-
e.ay are the most sane in the history OF
the race since the dawn Of so-caiied
civilization, and moving in the right
direction. In Turkey, where more cloth
ing is worn by the women than in any
other country on the globe, the morality
of the people is the lowest. This was
also true of France when the women
swathed themselves in heavy robes of
silks and satins and covered their faces
with powder and patches. No, covering
the body with clothes tempts rather than
prevents a tendency to morality.
Personally, / have always been in
rebellion against havirg my body smother
