AMONG TIE SPORYSMEN. Preparing for the Tucson
 Cycle Meet. The Football Game to De Fought Christmas. Comic Baseball Game Next Sun day-The MlIl Between Swiftly
 ana Noonan.

The bicycle is again having its boom in Phoenix All the bike dealers have made sales this month and next month there will be great many more sold.
 The racing men will leave for Tucson on the 20th and possibly some will leave tonight Sleator will ride for the half mile unpaced record and no doubt will get it..
 Tucson will have some good races and Phoenix is surely going to hep make the meet a success from the way the boys are riding. Robinson, the big novice man, will be in it if he does not get 8 setback His riding this week has been fine. Brown is flying and will be in it with the rest. Long is all right, but hasn't shown what he can do. Kibbey and Lowell are wait ing for their racers, so cannot make much of showing on road wheel.
 SleaItor is doing the boys lots of good. Yesterday the boys rode a trial mile and paced Sleator. It was hot from ter in B flat. It would have been close to 31, but he ran away from the bunch and had to wait flor them. Low ell sbarted on the next quarter, but his wheel slipped, so he had to quit. Brown then took it for threeeighths of a mile, and SieaItor went the last quar- ter alone, beating Brown out fifty yards. SleaItors time was 2:191a Brown, 2:24 It was good time, as the track is now very slow.
 The coming of Lacy of Los Angeles to race with rS.eator is causing a good deal of interest. The race will be a pretty one, as it will be fast. The boys are about the same age, height and weight and are about even as to num- bers of races they both have won.

HOW A RAILROAD WAS SOLD.
No More Excitement Than Over the
 Sale of Pony.

''Never has there been such a suc- cessBul receivership," said Judge Cald- we'll of Topeka, after he had closed up the Santa Fe receivership. "Of the $130 ,00O, ,0OG of bonds outstanding, $129,- 00O,000 have come in. The rest are scattered among persons who perhaps do not know just what proceedings have taken place, and will come tin in time. All are protected, however, by the decree.
 1.-The Santa Fe road was never in a better condition physically. Pursuant 10 my order, all local debts have been paid, leaving none outstanding The employees lhawe been paid regularly every month, and everything is percect- Ny satisfactory on all sides.
 1.-The sale was very simple, consider ling it's immensity. It was cried as you would cry the sale of a pony. I con- vened court after the sale and con- frmed the tr'ansaction I then issued an order for the deed to be made which MaIs formally done and'executed
 ''The company now has possession ot the road, but will do nothing until January 1. There is a provision which says that the road shall be turned oNel to the new company when the deed is presented and possession is demanded and it has been agreed upon that this will not be done until that a,me."

THE RIFLE BUTTS.

Company B has built a new rifle range south of town. The location is the best for a range that could be found around the city.

 A very interesting game was played at Alhambra Sabu1lay between the Lamsons and a nine picked from the sturdy tillers of so;l from around Al hambra. Those WhIo witnessed the game said it was a most amlsi ing one. It was played on plowed field and moist of the Alhambra Tboy5 made base runs in their stocking fe-t.

 The most amusing game of the sea- son, however, win be the opera bouffe game next Sunday between the carnival association nine and the newspaper mems team. Not one mlan in either team has the slightest conception of the game. The carnIiWal nine are all | big buriy fellows vino have never been out of a walk for years and the sighN Of 200 pounds of aTordupIois running, or rather w13ddIing forwards first base Will be a ludiGr0us one. The specta- tors in the grand stand will be in more danger of being struIck by the ball than the man at ithe bai. for it is a safe bel that not one man in either team can hit barn door three palces in front ol him. The umpires are also about as ! ignorant of the rules governing the game as a child and 1t is possible shaA the field surgeons will have an oppor- tunfEy to exercise their skill when the judges render a decision.
 All those who would enjoy a gooi
 helarty time should not fafl ito attend
 the game for it is guaranteed that il
 enough fun is not furnished the gate receipts will be refunded.

While he was nu- dressing he heard knocking at the door butt he did not answer it, tlhinking it was one of the other three genNle- men.

FOOTBALL.
Phoenix Pradticing for the Return
 Game With Prescott.

The football season seems to be at present reloeiNfng its greatest encour- agement A game between Prescott and Phoenix will take place in this city on Christmas or New Years, and ar TangGments are being made flor a game between Prescott and the Indians at the same time. Prescott will un1oubt edLy bring a strong team to this city and with Captain De Uanty as their head wfll put up a rOusing game. The Carnival association has invited the co-oYgeration of the football element to assist in making that affair interesting and no ,doubt 1.-Two games will take p,ace during carnival time, and for the win ner of the 'toHlImalment a trophy will be in readiness.
 The Phoenix team met for practice at the park yad-erday and a remodeling of the team took place. The team that beats Prescott requires cons derabie practice in order to meet the latter taatm during the holidays and it is ne cessary that al of the team be present at the prad5ice games. IA number of practice games with the Indians VII result in mutual benefit, ard doubtless arrangements will be made to have such practice games.
 Robinson's retirement from the team to participate in the bicycle races leaves a vacancy, which Cochran So alhly filled at Prescott and unless some other pushes him he wil retain that place. At present. his work is un- eNceMed.
 There is no reason why the Phoenix team should not become The 5trongest in this section of the United States.
