l 4 CONGRESSMEN ARE AT I GOVERNOR PARDEE AND PARTY MEET CONGRESSIONAL IRRI GATION COMMITTEE. Senator Newlands of Nevada In an Ad dress Praises the People of Yuma for Their Enterprise. Yuma, Ariz., June 10. Early yester day morning tho congressional party which is Inspecting the Irrigation sys tems In this section reached Yuma, being met here by representatives of the state of California, headed by Gov ernor Pardee. The visitors were first driven to the Blaisdell ranch on Yuma Heights and through the alfalfa fields In the lower valley, where many beaU' tiful orange groves and other fruit orchards were inspected. They then boarded the steamer Searchlight and viewed the site of tho projected La guna dam across the Colorado river, twelve miles above Yuma, taking luncheon on the boat. At 9:30 last night they left for Imperial. At an informal reception at the head quarters of the geological survey, Mul ford Winsor, president of the -Water Users' ' association,, welcomed the party, and P. A.- Ingram told of the history of (he movement to reclaim the country from the times of a peo pie now extinct In the Gila valley to the present. Recent experiments seemed to prove, he said, that irriga tion with private capital was a fall- ure. Senator Newlande of Nevada spoke -on behalf of the congressional com mittee on irrigation. He praised the people of Yuma for their enterprise and said they had done great work in reclaiming the desert vhloh was of benefit to the nation. Regarding in ternational questions, he favored build ing the needed dam first and settling any possible disputes afterward. "We are engaged in solving the railroad problem," he said in his ad dress. "I believe it will be solved without government ownership, but If no other solution can be found rest assured that we will have government ownership." The senator concluded by telling how the reclamation service had "been divorced from politics and placed In the hands of competent scientists. Congressman Mondell of Wyoming, . chairman of the committee on irriga tion, said: "First In time Is the basis -of all irrigation law. As the water Is being used in the country, and has never been used in Mexico, the peo ple in this country have a right to use all the water in the Colorado river." . Land Qrabbers Arraigned. St. Paul, June 10. William T. Hors nell of St. Paul and Royal B. Stearns of Pierre, S. D., were arraigned be fore the United State circuit court yesterday and charged with conspiracy to defraud the United States out of -homestead lands. Both pleaded not .guilty. Indictments against them have been returned by the federal grand jury charging them with having conspired to defraud the government out of 18,000 acres of homestead land in North Dakota.

Replies ac companying President Roosovelt's peace proposals were received by tho State Department today from Ambas sador Meyer at St. Petersburg and Mlnlstor Griscom at Tokio, on behalf of tho governments to which they are accredited. , Exactly what form the responses have taken will not be known until later, when the president returns from his outing. If these replies to the president's peaco notes are in as qualifiod form as it is believed they are, a formal notification to each of the belliger ents that the other has accoptod the suggestions of peace .will be transmit ted at once to the respective govern ments. This accomplished, Tokio and St. Petersburg will notify their com manding generals in the field to sus pend hostilities pending peace nego tiations. Troops Will Be Inactive. During these negotiations the troops will rest on their arms, presumably until the treaty of peace has been signed. " In view of the striking progress made toward peace, some sanguine diplomats looked for an immediate withdrawal of the Russian forces from Manchuria, But in view of the fact that either of the foregoing nations may withdraw from the peace confer ence at any time, previous to the sign ing of the treaty, the general belief is that the cessation of hostilities will not be marked by the withdrawal of either army. Local diplomats are astonished over what they deem the marvelous results achieved by President Roosevelt. Al though they looked for peace, they ex pected weeks of preliminary negotia tions before the Incident could po Ibly.atUin the position H has. Expect Peaoe in July. There may be many hitches before the final conclusion at the negotia tions. It Is believed fn some quarters that Japam Bray be forced to threaten a renewal of hostilities to bring Russia to fair dealing. But the concensus of opinion among diplomats of high and low degree Is that peace is as sured, that an armistice will be or dered within two days and that the peace treaty will be signed not later than the Middle of July.

Ho was taken 111 on (he sitoamer Rerguranca while en route from Colon to this city and was transferred to the hospital on the steamer's arrival. Tho steamer Serguranca brought nearly 150 passengers, many of whom had resigned their positions on the Panama canal because of the health conditions on the Isthmus. When the Kidneys fail to perform their functions properly by not straining out the poison "ous waste matter from the blood as it passes through them, the poisons are carried by the circulation to every part of the body, deranging -the different organs. This causes heart trouble, stomach trouble, sluggish liver and a host of other ills, all due to deranged Kidneys.

HOSTILITIES CEASE OYAMA BELIEVED TO HAVE RE CEIVED INSTRUCTIONS TO THAT EFFECT. St. Petersburg, June 10. The gov ernment Is plainly preparing the peo ple for the announcement that the em peror has decided to conclude peace, and that the negotiations have been begun by permitting the publication of all 'the foreign dispatches bearing on the subject. The newspapers and the KuBsian public, however, have until now only had a suspicion that import ant moves were going on behind the scenes. In well Informed circles it Is believed that Japan already has Instructed Field Marshal tVama to stay his hand, pending the result of the tentative negotiations, and that General LInevltch knows the situation. St. Petersburg. June 10. Ambassa dor Meyer has been for hours In con stant communication with Washington. He received a long cipher dispatch and soon afterward hurried to he foreign office, where he had half an hour's earnest conversation with Foreign Min ister Lamsdorff concerning the infor mation transmitted to him. Extreme reticence continues to be manifested, but it is apparent that the great announcement for which the world is waiting will not be made from here or Tokio, but from Washington. It is not likely to be delayed beyond Monday at the latest. No hitch has occurred and the outlook continues fa vorable to peace. Afthma Suffers Should Know This.

The best authorities on the science of meteorolopy tell us that without tbe various changes In the temperature there would be a perfect calm at all times in all parts of the globe. A uni form and unvarying barometric pres sure would everywhere prevail and there would be no changes of seasons, no evaporation or condensation, no clouds, no rain.

It is a common sight In tbe plana to behold a, stall woman, who is selling two renls' worth of eggs, pick them up one by one, put one end and then the other to her lips and band them over to the customer, who repeats tho sumo identical operation. To the In. experienced onlooker it scorns as if they woro tasting the extremities of the egg. As a mutter of fact, they never touch the egg with tho tongue. The Idea of the performance is Hint when an egg Is fresh one end Is dis tinctly colder than the other. Tho end which lias the air chamber Is the warmer of the two. The human lips are exceedingly sensitive to heat and cold, and even the novice nt this form of egg testing promptly becomes a capable judge. If bo'th ends of the egg reveal the same temperature, thul egg may be counted as bud, as It la a fairly good sign thut the air chambcl Is broken and the conteutH spread equally within the shell.
