As though with perfect drill, twelve desk tops were immediately 'populated: with twelve excited young women clamoring for all the assistance in the neighborhood. Arthur Keen, custodian of the state House and grounds, who happened to be on the spot, arose to the occasion. Inverting a waste basket over the Gila monster, which had emerged from beneath the desk, he weighted it down with several books. Later, the G. JI.

was replaced in the original box. While dancing around on top of a desk during the height of the excitement, one of the young women suddenly found that her hair had become etnangled in a ceiling fan, causing more excitement. DECISION FAVORS MINING OF GOLD Republican A. P. Leased Wire WASHINGTON', July 19 Gold mining has been listed as an essential industry, the war industries board announced today and all reasonable priority on material and supplies used in the production of gold will be given by the priority committee.

This action was taken on request of the treasury department. This decision was interpreted by an official of the priorities committee to mean that every assistance possible snort of interfering with essential war work would be given the gold mines in obtaining their materials. It was said that materials needed in the mining of other metals, such as copper and all of the lesser metals needed for war work already were on the priorities list. CAPITOL PEOPLE Shell Shock Has Nothing On Demon Fear Which Is Boss for More Than Day In State Commission Xerves were at' an abnormal tension In the office of the commission of state institutions all day Thursday and on Friday forenoon: This department Is housed in the recently built bungalow on the west side of the capitol grounds and is probablythe largest of the state departments." Besides the numerous men employed in this, department, there are -fully a dozen young women who arc-daily encaged at desks in the large room. It was 'among these young women that "nerves" were most discernible yesterday.

If the men wiye at all apprehensive, they managed to conceal their anxiety. Everybody was "on The slam of a door, the rattle of a waste basket or drop of a book were causes for more frequent and anxious peering about the in corners and under chairs and more careful gathering or skirts about ankles. But, as the hours wore on, with only an increasing nervousness as a result, work became almost an impossibility. And it was not until shortly after noon yesterday that relief came and the cute little Gila, monster -that had been at large somewhere in the rooms for more than wenty-four hours was recaptured. This animal, peculiar to Arizona, had boon bzrought in from the desert the day before as a present to a visitor who.

a short time previously, had stated while- -visiting Governor Hunt that he would like a Gila monster to take back east With him. Hearing the request, a friend determined that the visitor should have the Gila monster and soon sent one in to the state house. In a box with wire screen on the top. the Gila monster was placed in the drafting room in the office of the commission of state institutions to awatt further disposition. That was on "Wednesday night.

On Thursday morning it was discovered that the G. M. had deserted the box, having forced up the screen wire on one side. The six or seven rooms of the commission of state institutions are al lopen to each other, and the G. M.

had the freedom of ail. Encouraged by the cheerful knowledge that a Gila monster was loose somewhere in the rooms, the dozen girls and the other attaches of that department resumed their ordinary occupations on Thursday and yesterdav that is, as nearly as it was possible. TJie nervous strain, which was mentioned before, was not relieved until shortly afternoon yesterday, when an outcry from one of the girls, variously-described later as a scream, yell and snrcrnmirr SWEET gAND onl The controversy between Mrs. Delia Wood, colored, and Mrs. J.

L. Thomas, also colored, was more or less amicably settled yesterday so far as the court of Justice Wheeler is concerned, but it subsequently broke out in another Place. Mrs. Wood, procured the arrest of Mrs. Thomas on a charge of a disturbance of the peace.

When the defendant was brought into court the first time she stated what her defense would be; that she had paid the fare of the complaining witness to Phoenix jylthout suspecting that she would ever become such a thorn in the flesh. After that she paid a doctor's bill for her. And she had disturbed the peace of Mrs. Wood by asking for reimbursement. In court yesterday Mrs.

Thomas made known a characteristic of the people of her race. She said she would deal squarely with white people, but when they incurred indebtedness among people of their own color they felt that the transaction was- done and the incident was closed. Mrs. Wood admitted the kindly offices Mrs. Thomas had performed for her and said that she had always to pay her back if sometime she could' catch her acting like a lady.

Justice Wheeler asked her if she had the money to pay now. She replied that she had. The court then ordered the case dismissed and. suggested that the parties get together in a friendly way and remove the cause of the difficulty by a monetary settlement. They went away and the justice advised Constable Haze Burch to follow and encourage Mrs.

Wood to discharge the indebtedness. The constable reported later that he had seen the money paid to Mrs. Thomas, but no said it had been accomplished without a great show of enthusiasm and that all manifestions of affection between the two women had been restrained. Mrs. Wood afterward filed a damage suit against Mrs.

Thomas, to whom she gave the alias of "Poky Hunter," or Pocohontas, who she said had defamed her in the presence of her husband by remarks concerning her lack of chastity, all of which would have been very serious if her husband was given to believing all he heard. For this freedom of tongue on the part of Mrs. Thomas, Mrs. Wood asks More than 150 members of the Brotherhood Lunch club, with wives. sweethearts and friends, partook of a watermelon feast at Eastlake park last evening and listened to three splendid addresses.

The meeting was presided over by B. W.Getsinger. Dr. W. W.

Wilkinson, president ot the club for the past year, told of the activities of the organization during his administration and also presented his ideas of the future of the club. Charles R. Osburn. chairman of the board of governors, gave a talk on the organization of the Brotherhood Lunch club. He also announced the person nel of several committees.

The big address of the evening, how ever, was delivered by Archdeacon Webber of Boston who returned from Japan but two months ago. His ad dress concerned present- conditions in the far east, particularly India. The archdeacon is visiting the various soldiers' cantonments and camps in the country and announced that today he expected to go to Granite Reef and give an address to the soldiers sta tioned there. He later will go to Roosevelt Dam and talk to the soldiere at that point. The meeting of the Brotherhood Lunch club last evening was one of the most enjoyable and instructive given in the history of that organization.

The watermelon feast proved to be a great treat.
