locks, others contending that in or
der to provide navigation to Lake
Dora through Lake Eustis, larger
locks than have been suggested will
be required.
After thorough discussion of the
various angles of the question a COM
mittee compoced of Senator W. M.
Igou' of Eustis; G, G. Ware, of Lees
burg; ]. P Donnelly, of Mt. Dora,
and H. C. Duncan, of Tavares, was
named to go to Jacksonville Monday
and take the matter up with the
government engineer, urgin gthat
bids be received at the earliest prac-
teal date. This committee was also
instructed to recommend to the en-
gineer that only locks of sufficient
size to supply navigable waters for
large ocean steamers to Lake Dora
be constructed in the OcklaWaha
river, as the building of smaller
dams will preclude the possibility of
permitting larger boats to navigate
the stream.

MARY GARDEN SINGS.
To WILLIAMS PEOPLE.
FROM CAR PLATFORM

Standing on the observation plat
form of one OF the two special santa
Fe trains carrying the members OF
the Chicago Opera company from
Los Angeles to Denver, Mary Gar
den. famous American prima donna
and manager of the company. and
several members of the company, on
the afternoon of Easter Sunday staged
one of the most unusual operate
concerts in the history of the COM
pany when they sang a NUMBER Oh
songs at the urgent request OF near
~ the entire population or Whnams'
Ariz., which assembled at the tram
at Williams to see Miss Garden ana
the members Of her noted company
pass through.
The singe's were un7ccompanled
bv music of any sort and sang with
great difficulty because OF a strong
mountain wind which blew directly
in their faces Notwithstanding this
the artists and their songs were re-
ceived with great ovations by the
crowds who eagerly clamored Tor
more.
When frs asked to sing Mr.. Gar
den refused, but when the demand
became insistent she asked one OF
the women members of the company
to sing. THIS did not appease the
crowd nor did the songs of several
other members of the troupe. and
finally Miss Garden rose and sang
three songs.
Among those who heard the inn
promptu concert were the members
of the Arizona tax commission who
were in Williams on their annual IN
spection trip.
Miss Gardens voice" they said,
lis as wonderful as ever. and it was
treat to hear it lifted in song on
that wind swept mountain plain
After Miss Garden had sung for
the citizens of Williams. she then re-
ouested that one of their number
sing a cowboy song for her. but the
few cowboys in the crowd were un :
able to comply with her request. The
wonderful voices they had just liz
tened to stin held them spellbound,
and they were unable to find their
singing voices until the last of the
special trains was mere blot on the
eastern rim Of the plain.

WON'T PERMIT ROAD
To Be ABANDONED

The application OF the Arizona and
Swansea Railroad company for per-
mission to dismantle and abandon
their road yesterday was ordered de-
MED by the Arizona corporation COM
mission on the grounds that it was
to the best interests of all concerned
that the road be maintained The ap-
plication for the permit to discon-
tinue the operation of the road was
filed with the commission on Sep
tember 26. 1921. and the case was
heard at a public hearing before the
commission on January 10, 1922. The
matter was taken under adviSement
and the order issued yesterday.
The stretch of railroad in question
is q miles long and was built in 1910
