Base Ball News.
(Silver Betty

A challenge was published some time
since in the Globe Silver Belt, from the
Globe base ball team, in which they Of
fered to play any nine in the Territory
for $500. The money was raised IN
Prescott last Eight and the challenge
accepted, provided the Globe nine will
come to Prescott to play, their expen-
ses to be paid out of the gate receipts.
journal Miner.
The Journal Miner is mistaken, no
such challenge was ever published in
the columns of the Belt. The Globe
base ball club did challenge the Tucson
club, which was referred to in the Tue
son papers. The Globe nine can put up
a game that would trouble any nine in
Arizona to beat, but few OF the mem
bers could leave their work long enough
to visit Prescott. Let the Prescott bows
come TO Globe and We viii promise
them good time and far treatment.

TUCSON IMPROVEMENT COM.
PANY PROSPECTUS,

A copy of a prospectus of the Tucson
improvement Company just issued, con-
tains details Of the work expected by the
company. "To develop water in any
manner whatsoever, and to distribute
water so acquired for irrigating and
other purposes; to construct hotel and
operate the same; to construct street
railways and operate the same; to con-
struct systems of lighting by electricity
and other means, and operate the same.
"The amount of capital stock is $500
600, divided into 5000 shares Of 500
each, and the shares non assessable.
"The company's property consists of 20
Is acres in the geographical center of the
city of Tucson, and known as Military
Plaza two; stores and lots rented at 800
per month; 535 acres of land joining and
near the city, 65 acres Of the same are
rented at $500 per annum; 1872 unim
proved lots scattered throughout the
city, and right of way for % years upon
the principal streets of Tucson for
street car purposes.
The company proposes to landscape
the twenty acres in the center Of the
city, and build thereon hotel and cot
tages suitable for the accommodation OF
the large volume of tourists and health
seekers fast learning tie climatic ad
yantages Of Arizona for the successful
treatment of all bronchial, lung, asma-
tic and nervous difficulties"
Instances of the healthful quail ties Of
the city are given in detail, clippings
from the CITIZEN and Star in that regard
and numerous testimonials by physi-
clans and prominent citizens of the city
are given.
The prospectus reads we'll and in
common with all other well wishers Of
this county We would like these pro-
posed proie sets put into execution. The
proposal to develope water. il properly
executed would of itself double the tax
able wealth of the county. The hotel
would pay from the beginning and
street railway in Tucson would to say
the least, pay fair interest on the cap
ital invested. The prospectus is as fine
as fiddle. We wait with patience
realization of the good things to be
done,

The gigan tic operations of the South.

made during the year. The gross earn
ings were s3S, 49,, 1903, an increase over
1889 of s1,8S4,540. The operating expen-
SEES were 81, Use, l02, an increase OF s74S,
675. After the deduction of all charges
their remained balance Of S2,377,714
against 81 ,346,346 in 1890. The total as
sets of the road are s296, 4S6,026. The

In Saturdays issue from the Asso
ciated Press dispatches the CITIZEN
published a description of the now ia
nous vessel Itata.
Extracts from it said:
She has a remarkable speed, and can
steam fifteen knots day in and day out.
Seventeen knots is by no means difficult
to her. She is comparatively new boat,
with very fine lines and improved com
pound engines. She is 800 feet long ard
her tonnage is something like 1000. In
view cf the fact that she was built to
compete with the Panama steam navig
alton company, she is ofnecessity a 1irst-
class vessel IN every respect.
A resident of Tucson, formerly in the
navy, and stationed for ears along the
Chllian coast, makes very different re-
po-t of the Itata.
He says that she was only built for
the CHILEAN coast trade and did not
make trips to Panama; she cannot do
much better than 10 knots an hour; she
is about 100 feet long, and her tonnage
is something like 800 tons.
The Esmeralda is one of the finest
vessels in the world, and when built in
1884, was the finest. She cost g, 100000,
and was built in England, being paid
TOR by SO called popular subscription,
throughout Chill. Each male citizen
paid-and unwillingly, often enough
the sum Of g, to defray the expense of
building, and the feeling prevailed that
she was in an extent, common property,
all having paid their mite toward her.
She arrived in Chill the pride of the
country. Up and Gown the coast visit
ing every town on the coast, she went,
the scene Of grand balls and fetes for the
whole month Of her initial trip.
Chilian vessels are manned with the
most cosmopolitan OF crews: English
chiefly; then French, German, Italians,
Spanish eff course, Russian and Dane;
every nationality from every part Of the
world is represented in the CHILEAN navy,
and by no means is the native CHILEAN
found in plenty aboad. This is in con
trast with the manning of the Pc
ruvian vessels, whose sailors are nation
alties, to which is largely due the defeat
Of that country by Chill.

cisco.
At Wilcox now the switch is constant
ly full Of stock cars, and cattle from the
radius Of 80 or 40 miles Of Wilcox are

A large shipment will be made from
the cattle pens in this city, from San
Pedro, for Mr.. Rappel, the Chicago

Arizona would not tend to the depletion
OF the ranges said: "The stock now
shipped do not represent over one-tenth

EMPEROR WILLIAM, Of Germany, isn't
anxious to prove which is master in that
country, he or Bismarck, or he would
not have been in such hurry in adj
journing the Reichstag to prevent Bis
marck taking the seat to which he has
heen elected, The adjournment was

Changing Defeat to Victory.

The genius of Sheridan at Winchester
changed defeat to victory. So when
feeble adversaries in the shape OF in
efhc:ent remedies fail to stay the pro-
gress of that obstinate and malignant
foe, malaria, Hostetter's Stomach Bit
tiers turns the tide-drives the enemy
back. Nothing in materia medica, or
out OF 1t, compares with this as an op-
ponent OF every form of malarial disease.
Chllls and fever, dumb ague, bilious re-
mittent and ague cake-it matters not
one and all are expirated by the Bitters.
To take course Of the great prepare
tive IN advance OF the the malarial sea-
son, is to buckle on, as it were, an amor
OF proof which defies attack. So forti-
fed, so protected, you shall be scathe-
less. Remember, too, that the Bitters
is an eradlcator of liver complaint, con-
plant, constipation, rheumatis M, kidney
complaints and dyspepsia.

The Golden Club, of England has de-
cided to dispense with its annual ban
quet this year, and to devote the money
it would have cost to the dissemination
OF free trade ideas in the United States
These gentlemen would better have
eaten their dinner; they they would have
the satisfaction of knowing shat they
got something for their money. All the
wealth of England, great as it is, could
not make free trade popular in this
country.
Arizona weekly citizen., 1891-05-23

HERE is a news parae raph that is a
forceful argument for the Mckinley tar
if ct,that Democratic newspapers which
value free trade above news did not
print at all, and which other Democrat
ic newspapers printed in the most OBJ
scure positions. Chicago capitalists
have closed contract with an EIwood
Indiana land syndicate for the erection
of tin plate factory at that place to
employ 500 people. The plant to be in
operation in 1892. 1t will be hard to
convince the 500 people, to be
employed at this factory, that prote ction
is an injury to the toiling masses.

OUR Democratic friends a.

Our Democratic friends are not sc
confident of carrying everything before
them next year as they were a few
months ago. inst now they are doing
penance for their sins of the Annanias
sort in the last campaign. which time
has shown up just as the Republican
speakers and editors told the people il
would. A political victory WOE under
false pretenses is always dearly bought
and sure to prove "a boomerang. Truth
and honesty in politics as in private bus
mess, are necessary to permanent sue
cess. By the time thu Presidential
campaign opens the intelligent Demo
ocrat will blush for shame everytime
anybody says Mckinley bill. Some OF
them do already.

AN EXPEDITION OF MISSIONS.

William q. Douglas, Of the Baltimore
American, has undertaken to arouse in
terest in plan to make worlds exhib-
it of missions az the Columbian EXPOSE
ton, and pc is receiving much encour-
agement from the missionary societies
and the churches. There are in the
| world more than four hundred mission
airy societies Each one has in various
lands it's force Of missionaries and teach
ers, and many Of them have their physi-
clans and hospitals as aids in the work
various demo ninations in this and other
Christian countries are nearly all more
or less engaged in promoting missionary
work, such an exhibition as is proposed
would surely have very general interest.
The project includes an exhibition of
everything relating to missionary effort
domestic and foreign, throughout the
world by all denominations, including
"Idols, plaster casts and photographs of
idols, work of missionary publishing
houses, and OF the medical staff and in
dustrial schools. There would be the
Peruvian idols, idols of New Zealand,
tie headache idol of Alaska, the gods of
India and China, scenes of Indian wor-
ship, Brahminism, Buddhism, ancestral
Jhinese worship, and the work of city
missions, with photographs of the little
waits saved from the streets. The
Catholic Sisters Of Mercy, the Kings
Daughters and similar organizations,
the foreign and domestic societies, the
deaconessess and Episcopal Sisterhoods'
work could illustrate the methods. The
non-denominational work of the Hebrew
Daughters, who carry out the work of
love to God and man, the work OF women
in the harems of Turkey and the zenan-
as of India and China could be shown;
also statistics showing how missions aid
world wide growth of the spirit of
civil and religious liberty, and how
mission aries break down race and re
ligious prejudice against both Christians
and Jews in Russia, Turkey, Persia,
China, India and other countries. The
relations OF mission to social problems
would be represented in the Protestant
and Catholic rescue homes, and the
work of such undenominational organ
izations, as The Salvation Army, The
alphabets and languages of missions
would be exhibited, Models of heather
temples might be erected, and photos
aud stereoptican views exhibited; as, for
instance, Of the great Shway Dagon
Pagoda at Rangoon India and of Budd--
hist idol houses. Statistics of the pro-
gress Of missions and the literature OF
missions and OF heather lands would be
shown. The monkey temple of Bensres
and the monkeys as an object of worship
could be be exhibited as divinities foI
the worship of the people. The sym
bolisms Of silva would be shown, with tri-
dent, three eyes, black throat, holding
a crescent, a rattle, tigers skin and an
elephants skin. The drawbacks to
missions and why the name Of Christian
is too often, in tie Moslsm mind, the
synonym for hypocrisy and intemper-
ance, may be considered in the final
Published report of the exhibit. Chris
tain villages Of India might be illus
trated."

ANOTHER AMERICAN VESSEL.

IoUIoUE, via Galveston) May 21,--
The United States war ship Pensacola
arrived here yesterday.
WASHINGTON, May 21.-The Paris dis
patch stating that the Itata will be
peacefully surrended to the United
States by the insurgents upon arrival
at Chill was shown to navy officials to-
day, but they decided not to discuss the
matter. Nevertheless it can be stated
positively that there have been no ne
gotiatIons been the insurgents and this
government. There is good reason to
believe that this government expected
the Itata to be peacsably surrendered TO
the United States when she Is found to
have discharged her arms and munitions
of war. The object of libelling the ship
in California was to determine whether
she had violated neutrality laws. If
she stands on that charge the status of
the insurgents must be iudicially deter
mined as preliminary proceedings. IL
it is held that they are belligerents the
insurgents will have realized substantial
advantages, and all they risk is
loss by FORGETTING or the empty
vessel. Nothing as heard at the
department yet Of the Charleston. She
is due at Panama today, but it may be
that she proceeded straight on to Payta.
Peru.
PITTsBURa, May 21.-Henry Brose, of
Etna, and Thos. O'Rourk Of this city,
died today from eating smoked sturgeon
that poisoned more or less seriously 500
persons of this city and vicinity. The
authorities have taken hold of tie
matter.
LINCOLN. Neb, May 21,-A sensation
was created liz the Sheedy murder trial
by the testimony of DR.. Weinert. To

the skull of the deceased and exhibited
it before the jury, showing the fracture
caused by the cane stroke He testi-
fed that death did not result from the
fracture nor from conclusion of the brain
but that it resulted from morphine
poison ing; this is regarded as very
damaging to Mrs. Sheedy. the defend
ant, and in favor of the negro, who as
saulted Sheedy.
GALVESTON, May 21,-Jack Burke of
Houston is the champion light weight
pugilist of Texas. He won the title and
the purse of 5000 last night in fiercely
fought battle OF forty-three rounds with
Tom Monaghan Of Galveston, who had
never been beaten in the ring before.

storm commenced here about 3 o'clock
this afternoon and is still blowing. If
it should continue through the night
great damage will be done to grain and
fruit.

clone passed through this section today,
doing immense damage to crops and |
sweeping away small buildings. No one |
injured as far as known.

wind, rain and hail storm passed over |
here yesterday. 1t is estimated that |
the damage will reach three hundred |
thousand dollars.

Der of houses. Many persons were IN
