AN ANCIENT SPORT,
Come Contest to Take Place at Tan
 que Verde Tomorrow.

Tomorrow at Tanque Verde peculiar game brought down from their Indian ancestors, a contest somewhat favoring the American football, will be played by two young Mexicans of 21.
 Instead of football they play it with sort of gourd, rather larger than a base ball, and called gome. The skill acquired in 'kicking" It is almost in- credible, .t beng nothing unusual for them to send the light ball spinning up wards landing a hundred yards away. The contestants are two or more and the distance usually several miles. Each has one bail, and is barefoot. The game is not always for the swiftest runner, but rather to one kicking the ball fsrthest. Tins kicking is peculiar. It is not 9 kick at all, but the ball is picked up on the great toe and Jhe next one, and drawing the foot back carefully the ball is hurled far away.
 It Is a sport sad to originate with the Iaaui Indians, and s often played by the Papagoes. Those on the reservation have driven the ball ahead of them when en route to Tucson.
 Tomorrow coEteet will be two mi es and turn, and money Is up on the race. It takes place at : o'clock.

Had Q Hard Tin 8 of It.

A man near the railroad yesterday hailing from Fl Paso, will tell that Tue son is a town that did not deal gently with him.
 With a companion he was yesterday afternoon playing cards for drinks, rail road men being in the room at the time. Soon he missed his pocket book, con- taining S10 iu silver and 5 bill, and complained 70 the police. Accompanied by Officers Roche and iJohnsOn be re- turned, and pointed out one of the rail road men as the thief. The fact was that his companion took the pocket book, and naturally the railroad man was very wroth. He concentrated considerable punishment in two blows given bei' the officers could interfere, paying fine of 8 therefore this morning.
 1hs railroad men then showed tbe officers the guilty party, the purse bs- ing found In his possession.
 He was arrested, gave his name as John Doe and now awaits the appear ance in court against him of the man losing the money. That individual to the present writing has not shown up. Should he fail. to :after reasonable time, the prisoner will be dismissed.

EIszRnt Fashiou Books.

The new fashion journels, La Mode, La Mcde de Paris" and "Album Ces Modes," published by A. Mcdowell & Co.,, West 14th street, New York, are the most elegant of their Kind ever brought to our notice. The styles are drawn by the best artists, and the books are produced by rival houses in Paris, each trying to excel the other in the character of it's publications. Formerly they were printed only in French, but they are now published in English for the use of American readers. These journals furnish the styles one month in advance of any similar publications, and they have a practical department in which lessons are given each month on how to make dresses, etc. The additional fashions. the lessons in dress making, and the giving of the styles one month earlier than heretofore are strong points in favor of these fashion books. causing them to be called "The Favorites." These excellent publica- tions can be obtaired from all news dealers.

The trail from Tucson showed two horses, one barefoot, the other shod. The trail was lost at the point where the horse was found. The animal found was turned over to Agent Berger.

"FAUST" FROSTED.
A Friend in Need Who Didn't
Have the NeedfuI.

The Reeve BurlesQue Opera company
of twelve people, which recently put on
Faust" at the Pence, went bump up,"
so to speak, at the conclusion Of its en-
gagement. Manager Reeve hoped to
fill some dates at small towns and re-
cuperate his finances. In his emergency
he looked about for some one who would
exchange some money for little
experience in the show business, and
thought he discovered the right person
in W. q. Tice, real estate man, and
son of Rev. David Tice. Mr.. lice was
therefore accorded the privilege of GO
ing back on the stage at the Pence and
getting acquainted with the company.
He signed contract to pay the cOn-
pany's board for couple of weeks at
the National hotel as Geo. {. Davis"
1t is claimed. He, however, failed to
make good. and the company'S baggage
was seized in payment. May Duryea,
the "Margurite." got tired of the cOndi-
ton of affairs and has gone East, and
the other members have looked for stu
ations elsewhere, while Manager Reeve
is striving to get his baggage and''props"
out of hoe. Mr.. Tee says he was not
the cause of the company's misfortunes
and only tried to be friend in need,
only he didn't have enough of the
needtul to pay board bills for twelve
people,

Various Features of the Patrol
Limits Warfare.


The patrol limits war continues to be
interesting. 1t is reported that Today
Robert Jamson will demand warrant
for the arrest of Rev. Golightly Morrill,
for criminal libel upon the members of
the Hennepin delegation in his splenatic
communication to the Tribune. Morrill,
claims that he did not accuse the dele
CATION of straight Doodle as did DR.. Bur
rell, and doesn't think there is much
danger of his being prosecuted.
+. c. Pillsbury, son of George A.
Pillsbury, THE father of the patrol lin
its" is out with a petition to preserve
the dead line as relic of the Pillsbury
administration. and is circulating it
among members of the chamber OF COM
merce. A report has been started that
a secret movement is on foot to secure
a reduction of the local liquor license
from 81, 1000 to 800. There is no truth
in this, and the story was doubtless
originated by an evening paper to ere
ate the impression that the Hennepin
delegation is going to work i'll the inter
eStS Of SalOonkeeperS, so as to further
excite popular feeling against the dele
CATION.
The ministers seem to have cooled off
somewhat. and realize that they have
rather damaged their case by their eX-
travagant denunciations. The plan
seems now for them to keep quiet and
allow the friends of moral Suasion to
WreStle with the delegation.
