A Scene of Disorder.

After the procession had disbanded so nething happened which occasioned widespread regret that the carnival had taken place at all. Several hundred men, women and children engaged in the baptism of each other and every body else with flour. At last when the only good clothes in town left unsolled were on members of the audience at the opera house. the crowd massed in front of the building and waited two hours for the curtain to fall. The audi ence was apprehensive and slow about appearing on the street. The thirsty gentlemen who usually go out between acts to see man, left that imaginary individual unseen.
 Different plans were proposed for raising the siege. A false fire alarm was given just before the close of the

There WAS never anything like it in Phoenix before.
 The carnival which is supposed to precede period of Lenten dullness when the great railroser celebration is over was something wild and wierd. Every body took part in if, some from choice and some from necessity, and all became component parts of bowling, jovial four besprinkled mob.
 It was understood that mask was a shield against foury assaults and it was so early in the orgies. It was as much as ones clothes were worth to appear on the streets unmasked. Everything that could disguise was employed. There were paper masks, regular masks, cloth masks and old men and women who never wore masks before appeared in all sorts of disguises.
 As the night wore on the mob grew less discriminating and mask became no longer preventive.

At the Park.

The only demonstration in the day time was the ball game at Phoenix park in the morning between Whipple and Phoenix and the races in the afternoon. The ball game was the best ever played in Phoenix. The crowd was not large, but it was very enthusiastic one and seemed to be about equally divided in the cheering. The work of both batteries was splendid and several good plays were made by both sides. The fielding done by the boys was good. It was a game played with very few errors and both teams deserve a great deal of credit for their work considering the amount of practice they have had. The score was to in favor of the soldier boys.
 One of the largest crowds that ever gathered at the park witnessed the races in the afternoon. Two rec ords were broken, one g track record and the other a coast record. The first event of the afternoon was quarter mile foot race between three Indians, which was quite inter- esting. Kibbey, Warren and Sleator were next on the program. The race was half mile standing start and was won by Sleator in one minute and ten seconds, breaking the coast record by little over second. They were paced by Long and Searle on tandem.
 W. E. Vaughn was next, and gave a very pretty exhibition of bicycle trick riding. Mir. Vaughn showed himself to be master of the wheel.
 Four Indians ran half mile foot race in 2 minutes and 39 seconds.
 The quarter mile bicycle race be tween Warren and Kibbey was won by the latter. Time. 35l4 seconds. Thi! was special race.

performance, but that drew away only a small part of the crowd. It was pro. posed to turn the hose on the folks in tEs street, but the suggestion was not carried out. 4 delegation came down stairsN to remonstrate with the be- siegers.
 but the delegates were driven back b-fore cyclone of f,ur. There began to be an exhibition of bad temper and threats of arrest aud violence.
 Finally the performance was over and the audience ventured out. The be- siegers were not half as reckless as it was feared they would be. They assaulted only the better dressed persons.
 Small bands paraded the streets until midnight, keeping up desultOry rain of flour, and the great carnival was over.
 As an expression of hilarity it was an unbounded success, but the managers are not sure that it would not have hoen better to dispense with it. Resi- dents of Phoenix do not care particu- larly for their ruined clothes, but they are not sure how their visitors will take it and whether they will not have gained an impression that the proceed ings reached the point of extreme familiarity. But then a railroad isn't completed every day, so what's the difference?

A Trades Display.

The carnival opened with parade by floats much more extensive than the trades display in Tuesday's parade. It was formed on First avenue and Wash ington. Headed by the Prescott and Phoenix military bands and under the direction of Maj. Schwartz it moved east on Washington to the Lemon hotel. There WAS a counter march to First avenue and again to the city hall where the procession disbanded.
 Features of it were the Phoenix Oil company's display, a float by the Singer Sewing Machine company, Goldberg's big imitation engine, Lut- gerdlng's meat market and the Arizona Soap company's display. Of the latter a feature was bar of soap. weighing 2,160 pounds.
 Other floats were those of D. H. Bur.is, Ward & Wilson's mammoth shoe, Louis Melrcze's beer exhibit and the Gardiner's mills display.
 There was section of phantom hi- cyclists in white and scores of men and women in multlfarious and fantastic disguises. The way of the procession was lit by red fire.

 DENVER, Col, March 13-Judge Hal lett today granted temporary injunc- tion to the Del Monte Mining Co.,, re- straning the New York Chance com pany from encroaching upon it's terri tory. Both mines are situated at Creede and the New York has produced $1 ,000, ,000 worth of ore.
 The New York company has been following it's vein beyond it's side lines and under the ground of the Del Monte. Hence the suit for an injunction. The legal points raised in this case are similar to those fought in the cele- brated suit of the Amy-Silversmith case which was decided by the United States supreme court last year. The decision in that case was to the effect that if the vein crossed the two side lines instead of the two end lines the owners could not follow the vein out side of their own claim.
 This decision caused revolution in mining and attracted the attention Of the mining communities of the country In the case of the Del Monte and New York Chance, in the New York, the apex crossed one end line and one side line of it's own claim.
