Ingalls of Yuma was lately appointed superintendent of the Pioneers' Home, and he left for his post only a week ago yesterda. The captain has spent the greater part of his life in Yuma except during the period he resided in Phoenix when he held the office of surveyor general, so that he was not climatically fitted for the kind of temperature that has prevailed at Prescott within the last week.

John Rock, the new member of the commission of state institutions, is a former Phoenix man. He was for some years the grocery business here, and during Ins residence he was an enthusiastic member or the volunteer fire department.

TZ r-nTn- The squadron of army airplanes that visited Phoenix early in December on their way from San Diego to El Paso and then continued their transcontinental flight to Xew York, are to revisit this city on the return trip, according to information received yesterday at the chamber -of commerce. News comes from Albert D. Smith, commanding' officer of the squadron, that as soon as the four army airplanes- are overhauled and made ready for another long flight, the return journey to Rockwell Field will be started. The coming of this squadron to Phoenix, en route, to Tucson aid El Paso, and the royal reception tendered them will long be remembered with great pleasure.

The men of the squadron expressed their pleasure in their visit to this city and hoped to return again, but there was little hope then of an immediate return because the squadron had orders to proceed to New York. The return flight. Major Smith said, would be a more northerly route, touching part of the central west in flight, mapping air courses en route for future aerial mail or military uses. Three of the original Curtiss planes which started. on the trip were taken on tfie New Y'ork flight, but the engine of the fourth plane was not sonsidered safe, and another plane war substituted temporarily.

MESA, Jan. 14. Dr. J. E.

Drone, health officer, reports that there is no material spread or influenza within the town of Mesa, and that if the public wil! aid in the enforcement of the strict" quarantine regulations; there is small likelihood of any great increase of the disease. That there are cases of influenza in town, and a number more throughout the country district, is undisputed, but Mesa, comparatively speaking, is at present suffering tinder only a verv slight visitation. No change for the yVorse has been noticed since the opening of the schools, theaters and pool halls. Dr. J.

Bernard Nelson spoke along similar lines when asked on Sunday as to the influenza situation here. The health board'urges each person knowing of any violation of the quarantine rules, to report the same and in case any one develops influenza, this report also should be made. Attendance at the schools, wlii'uh dropped considerably when the report came out that the county schools were closing, has been increasing daily. Will Confine His Crops to Cotton Charles T.

Mr. Jepson has installed in the center of his yard and overlooking the barns, garage. a 250-candle power electric light that illuminates the surroundings for at least a block. As the owner aptly says, it is mighty handy wjien they wish to come in "or go out at night, or when there is any disturbance among the poultrv or animals he can simply turn on the light and see what is the matter.
