Flagstaff. Ariz.. Aug. 23. — Mars came within 31.600.000 miles of the earth last night, blinked his red eye and went away into space again, still as mysterious as ever in most respects. But delicate instruments at Lowell observatory here did record many facts concerning him and will continue to do so for many more weeks as he falls behind the earth in the everlasting race around the sun. Outstanding of the newest facV learned and to which is to be added other information are those relating to temperature of the plant. Summed up. this evidence shows in the opinion of the scientists at the observatory that the heat on the planet is such as would support on otherwise adapted form of organic life. Tcrrestial clouds interfered occasionally with observation here during the maximum approach last night but later in the evening they cleared away and the planet gleamed clear and strong across space. Towards the sunrise edge of the planet, notches were noticed in the edge of the Polar cap. Some of the larges ‘canals” were plainly visible. These connected some of the dark areas. The summer is just starting on the planet in its southern hemisphere and for weeks the planet will still be relatively close enough for observation of changes on the surface as they develop. o Wants A “Woman” And Not A “Man Chaser” Chicago, Aug. 23.—John Schmick, a farmer living near Michigan City, Ind., today asked Morgan A. Collins. Chicago police chief to find him a ! wife. In a lengthy letter to Collins, Schmick set forth his position in life and said all he lacked was a “woman," None of the women in or around Michigan City suited him, he said. “I have been a widower six years i and have several children. I am ‘ manager of a large farm owned by W. W. Oehm, who is head of the Pullman Car Company, in Chicago. I have a large house and every comfort,” ■ Schmick’s letter stated. - Schmick safil he had looked about Michigan for “a woman,” but that he I found they were all “men chasers.” He told Collins he wanted Tt “good woman” for a wife and didn’t care whether or not she had money. He offered to pay her transportation to his farm and also said he would pay Collins for this trouble. The letter brought a smile to the face of Chicago’s busy police chief, but a letter probably will be sent to i Schmick, advising him to apply to a matrimonial agency. o | Court House | Marriage Licenses Ainos Ketchum, teacher.
