An Active and Unselfish Friend

Among the new residents of the city who deserve warm welcome is D. A. Abrams, brother-in.law of James . Fleming, the banker. During the Knights Templars' conclave at Denver Mir. Abrams was tireless in his assist ance at the Arizona headquarters and probably did more good for the terri tory at that time than any other man. Since then he has been active in the distribution of advertising matter and really had charge of the business of seeing that copies of the Illustrated REPUBLICAN were put where they would do the most good. All this was done at a time when he had no inter. ests in the territory.

An OId-EnshInnnd Game.

A funny form of sport revived now and then at western county fairs and carnival amusements is the barrel race. No doubt it is very old in its origin, go- ing back at least to ancient times in England, as do most of our outdoor diversions At point about midway m the racecourse row of barrels is placed, with the heads knocked out. Each Sprinter is assigned his barrel, through which he must crawl before complet- ing the running. The antics of the con .eStants in endeavoring to make good ume through these obstacles never fail to set the crowd of spectators in roar. sometimes a man gets fast in the barrel and rolls about helpless on the ground uhtil his more fortunate competitors nave reached the goal.
