ALPACA SPELLS SMARTNESS

Possibly the newest note IL fab

vogue for alpaca weaves. Iney

costumes. especially of semi
tailored character. The modern
Interpretation of alpaca is far more
supple and lustrous than the old

fabric known to our mothers. 1t
goes by many names. the French
version is "Soiepalga:" the Ameri-

cognized always by its glinting
brilliancy. In a combination OF
black and white, or blue and white.
alpaca is particularly effective. In
this smart three-piece costume OF
Drapaca a long white tunic but
toned down the front is posed over
an underslip Of blue, the long coat
Of blue Drapaca is also buttoned
all the way down the front. There
is absolutely no attempt at orna-
mentation; the costume depends
for it's distinction on the lines. and
on the effectiveness OF the mater
ial. The coat shows a very new
tendency to fare at the back.
Henri Creange tells Us this is the
case with many of the models now
being shown in Paris. The effect
at the back is of a mans Eulster.
and this is heightened by the fact
that it is slit UP the back and
buttoned.
The smart knockabout hat is con-
structed of the same material as
the costume. Fabric hats are very
smart now. and Drapaca lends it.

INTOXICATED MEXICAN JUMPS
INTO THE VERDE AND BROWNS

Carmen Cabrera, a Mexican resi-
dent of Jerome, aged about 35 years,
was drowned early this week in the
Verde river, just above the dam
which diverts water into the Packs
lake tunnel.
AS far as the facts can be learn
ed, Cabrera had been drinking heav-
lily and became crazed with too much
white mule. He is supposed to have
jumped into the river while in this
condition. He had a. pistol in his
hand, onlookers say, which he dis
charged several times, continuing to
shoot even while in the water.
Ralph Mcbride of Clarkdale at
tempted to rescue the crazed Mexi-
can, but could not reach him in time.
Cabrera had been employed by the
United Verde Copper company but
drew his pay several days ago, plan
ming to return to Mexico, where he
had wife and four children.

DIRECTORS SALT RIVER
VALLEY W. U. A. PLAN
DAM AT HORSE MESA

Construction of the Horse Mesa
power project, at an estimated cost OF
S4,000,000, is assured if the share
holders of the Salt River Valley Wa
ter Users association, ratify the con-
tract which F. A. Reid, president OF
the association, and c. G. Craglrl,
general superintendent and chief en-
gineer, were instructed to make with
officials of the Inspiration Consoll-
dated Copper company, by the board
of directors at meeting Friday IN
Phoenix.
Officials of the association said
that the construction of the Horse
Mesa project is the greatest develop
ment work that has been contemplated
| by the association since the building
of Roosevelt day. The new dam VIII
be IL miles east Of the Mormon Flat
dam. 1t will be 268 feet above the
bed of the river, 140 feet wide at the
bottom and 400 feet wide at the top,
spanning the Salt river at one OF the
most picturesque points along the
river.
However, officials declared that the
construction of the Horse Mesa prof.
ect NAV be undertaken with less risk
| than the Mormon Flat dan1 despite
the massive proportions, because OF
! the comparatively short distance to
and entire cost of the work and a
bedock and the amount of excavation
work which will be preliminary to the
actual construction of the great dam.
The construction of the new dam al
Horse Mesa will double the hydro
electric power that is now being de-
/ veloped by the project, according TO
officials of the association, as approx
| imately $4,000 horse power Will be
developed by the dam when 1t IS COM
| pleted. -
The completion Of the project will
mean that the Salt River project Will
be free from all water assessments
within two years, officials SAID. by
4 the terms of the contract which has
been tentatively agreed to, the In
spiration Copper company agrees IC
4 purchase a minimum OF S503,5ot
worth of horse power from the asso,

wears. or sufficient to pay Interest
guaranteed profit of 81 per acre tc
the shareholders of the association
with a probable profit of So per acre
according to officers of the associa-
ton.
i In discussing the contract with loca
officials of the mining company few
DAYS ago they declared that thell
probably consumption of power eacf
year will be around $1,000,000, which
officials say will provide funds to pay
the annual installment due the gov.
n,.nnoant of 5000 600 on the origina
cost of the Roosevelt project, pay al
operating and maintenance charges Of
the project and leave a surplus of ap
proximately 81 per acre to be declar
ed as dividends to the shareholders o.
used for further improvements OF th'
project.

ner students, brings together very
cosmopolitan group of students who
contribute in large measure to an en-
joyable as we'll as instructive quar-
ter. The daily schedule is arranged
so that little work need be done in
the afternoon, thus affording time
for recreation in the forests, on the
lakes, in the mountains, or in the
hundreds of other attractive spots
within a short radius of the campus.
The working arrangement made
between the University of Arizona
and the Northern Arizona Normal
school for the joint summer quarter
is that the Normal school will offer
all work of junior college grade while
the. university will devote its atten-
ton to the senior college work and
to work looking toward the masters
degree. The Normal school will fur
nish instructors satisfactory to the
university in the junior college
courses that are offered, and the uni
versity will allow credit for this work
as if it were done upon its own CAM
pus.
This arrangement will, no doubt,
continue throughout the next school
year, that is, the normal school will
offer junior college courses that the
university will recognize. The rea-
son for this arrangement is easily
seen when one considers the tremef1-
dous distances in Arizona. For ex-
ample, a student starting his univer-
sity work and living at Springerville
would, at present, travel 10 miles by
stage and one hundred miles by rail
to reach Flagstaff. To reach the
university of Arizona, it would be
necessary for him to travel some $50
miles further.
The board of trustees and the fac
ulty of the Northern Arizona Normal
school have considered launching this
project for some time and now are
satisfied that funds are available for
such an arrangement to be carried
out, next year. This should result in
a great many of our young men start
ing in upon their college course.

CATTLEMEN SAY FURTHER.
FREIGHT INCREASE WILL
RUIN STATES INDUSTRY

Declaration that any further in
creases in the freight rates on cattle
in Arizona would entirely submerge
the industry in this state was made
by cattlemen testifying at the Phoe-
nix hearing last week of the suspen-
sion livestock rate case before Exam
iner Kephart of the interstate COM
merce commission. The cattlemen were
testifying in protest to any further
increases in the rates on livestock IN
Arizona.
Both the railroads and the protest
ants were given until May in which
to file their briefs in the case. BY
stipulation between the Southern Pa
cific and E. A. Jones, counsel for the
Arizona Cattle Growers association
it was agreed that the increased rates
on livestock from Arizona points into
New Mexico and Texas would be sus-
pended until a ruling was handed
down in the case of the cattle grow
ers attacking the rates to California
points.
The cattlemen testified that they
were barely able at present to keep
their heads up and make any profit IN
the industry, and declared that any
increase in the present freight rates
would wipe away what little profit
there was in the industry now. The
profit, they said, was very little, and
in most cases, they only managed to
break even.
J. C. Peyton of the Peyton Packing
company of FL Paso testified that any
| increase in the rate on cattle from
| southern Arizona points to Ell Paso
| would make rates higher on stock
| from those points to TT Paso thar
/ the rates from central Texas and that
his firm, which in the past has bought
| considerable livestock in southern Ari-
zona, would be forced to find its live
stock in central Texas. His testimony
was backed up by representatives of
| the Ell Paso chamber of commerce who
testified on behalf Of the Arizona cat
| tie growers.
The hearing grew out of an appli-
cation on the part of the Southern
Pacific company to increase the rates
on livestock from Southern Arizona
points into New Mexico and Texas,
which was granted by the interstate
commerce commission, but were sus-
pended later upon application by the
Arizona Cattle Growers association
through their counsel Jones, Blaine &
Jones.
| Under the stipulation entered into
between the Southern Pacific and Mr..
Jones representing the cattle growers,
the railroad agrees to continue the
suspension of the rates eastbound un-
til the case brought by the Arizona
Cattle Growers association seeking a
reduction in the rates westbound into
California, is decided by the Inter
state Commerce Commission. In eff
feet, the stipulation combines the two
cases and one decision will be handed
down in both cases, which will be the
basis for the rates, both east and
westbound, according to rate experts.

Men of Prominence
Enormous Feeders

Sports writer's who see Firpo eat
are astonished at the quantity of meat
consumed by the Wild Bull.
l doubt if he holds a better record in
that respect than did some Philadel-
phians who were as eminent in other
ways as Firpo In the ring.
Senator Penrose was a prodigious
meat eater. l saw him at breakfast
1evour two eggs, a large broiled fish
and a handsome beefsteak, says the
Philadelphia Inquirer.
At dinner two ducks were for him
not an unusual chase after oysters and
fish.
r.. De Witt Cuyler matched the SEN
ator as a hearty eater. At the Ritten-
house club it was quite the customary
thing for him to follow half a dozen
oysters with a large fish, an extra big
porterhouse steak and top them off
with a quail.
John G. Johnson did as we'll as that
and l saw him begin q meal with a
dozen big oysters.
Henry F. Walton, former speaker of
the Pennsylvania assembly was an.
other famous diner. His physician
once ordered him to walk Il mile in
stead of eating lunch.
