game, W Ine championship beEles,
and by a score OF to 7, three Of the
8 for the winning Regiments being
obtained in the last half OF the ninth
and with two men out. The day
was all that could be desired for
ball play; the audience was small
but as enthusiastic as the forbidding
notices and law would permit, and
the peculiar characteristics OF the
game made it very interesting.
During the first two innings the St.
Louis made runs while the Regi-
ments took cyphers. In the third
the Regiments sent Moore to bat
first; he obtained 1st on hit, stole
End, got 3rd on passed ball and OBJ
tanned the first tally; four more
TALES we're added by errors of Glea-
son, Dayton and Lemon, and Regi-
ment stock was high. The plucky
st. Louis lads pulled together, how
over, and added six runs to their
score from the fifth to the first half
of the ninth innings while the Regi-
ments dieted on goose eggs. The
last half Of the ninth, however, was
the Waterloo for the st. Louis, as
the ESQ far defeated Regiments hit
Lemon hard and piled in three tai
lies, thus winning the game by
score Of 8 to Z. Following is the

Big Gold Strike at Santa Rita.

A prospector named Reagan. and. his
partner made strike of exceedingly
rich gold ore near Santa Rita last Sat-
urday. Samples of the ore were sent
to this city to be assayed and and gave
returns of eighty ounces geld per ton.
Specimens, now to be seen at Ernests
roadhouse below Santa Rita: are liter

away up iEta;lba<, isapdreds CT. ounces
per ton. The vein lies on the south
west slope of Santa Rita mountain,
about mile and half from the Kneel-
ing Nun. The old Mexican traditions
are to the effect that rich gold ore was
found in that vicinity and worked more
than. a century agp. There is 4esi-
can named Galivan now living at Santa
Rita who is over 100 years old. He has
always insisted that the Spanish

j. A. Pewette came N from MoteZuma
Castle yesterday with the most perfect
prehistoric u mstat stones ever seen 10
this section. The stones were taken
from the floor of room in the eighth
story of the prehistoric Montezuma
castle. Four feet of bat guano was
taken from the floor and the stones
found under it. The large stone weig hs
over 100 pounds and Mr.. Pewette had
some difficulty in descending the four
ladders placed ct intervals from the
base to the top Of the castle, distanc &c
of 100 feet. Ths metat is about two feet
long by Is inches wide, is of blue gran
ite and must have been used for years,
as the stone is worn down so that the
outer edges are several inches higher
than the bottom Of the groove in which
the smaller stone slid up and down,
crushing the grain. The smaller stone,
or grinder, was found near the larger.

Yumaites. became familiar, through
several years of newspaper controver-
sy, pro and con, resulting over an in
ternecine fight in the ranks of the COM
pany, with the mammoth plan of the
Colorado River Irrigation Comp3nya to
reclaim millions of acres of desert land
on the other side of the Colorado river,
For some time little has. baen. heard, of
the proposition, but recently reliable
information haa reached us that Eng
lish capitalists have invested in the
great enterprise, and as a preliminary
move in the consummation of the stu
penduous scheme have bought right
of way through the land tract of Mex
ican territory both in Sonora and Low
er California, known as the Andrade
land. With the right Of way go valua-
bic concessions granted by the Mexi-
can government, and we believe, good
ly tract of land as well. The consider
alton, $4,000, has been paid, showing a
determination on the part of the inves-
tors to carry through the great plan of

Wasn't Long Enough.

face was, dripping with watar, On be-

said:
"But, teacher, can't"
Naturally surprised, the teacher ask

in washing his face and hands and wip-
ing them so nicely as far as he had gone.
The small boy answered, while the big
tears ran down. his cheeks:.

The Shortage of Cattle.

On the Pacific coast, says Tom keogh
in the Salt Lake City Tribune, there is
almost panic for enough cattle to sup
ply the local market, and indications
are that before Christmas the dressed
beef men from this side of the noun
tains will be shipping cattle to Califor-
MIA. Prices are advancing at an alarm
ing rate, and even the high prices are
not drawing out many cattle, for the
simple reason that they are not in the
country.
Take it on ths. Pacific coast now, I
know that around the Reno district in
Nevada, whence California haa drawn
its great supply for years, there are only
5000 or 1000 head left, where there were
nearly 10000 last spring. The good
prices in the east have induced eastern
buyers to enter the district and buy,
and the Californians did not awake to
the situation until they saw the cattle
being shipped out.
In the. same way eastern buyers have
cleaned cut Arizona, Oregon, Washing
ton, Nevada, Idaho, Colorado and most
of Utah.
For several years cattlemen have
slayed their heifers and fattened them
and two-year-olds for market, until the
ranges.ale a absolateiy barren. Taagraat
bulk of the cattle of this country are
now concentrated in Nebraska, Kansas,
Iowa and Missouri, where they can get
corn. They will come to market next
year and there will be no shortage then,
for the average farmer thinks as long
as he can see SO. many cattle around
| him that the world must be full of them.

The following telegram has been sent
to the attorney general at Washington
by Robinson & Leslie, representing 8
group of holders of Union, PACIFIC re-
organization committee certificates for
the Union Pacific stockholders: "We
notify the government that the commit
tees bid involves a. departure from the
terms Of it's trust under the trust agree
ment declared January 26, pursuant to
which the stockholders paid nearly
$9,OO0OO0 The committee is not per-
mitted to issue more than $75,000,000in
bonds for the purchase of both the
Union and Kansas Pacific. Under the
bid for the Union Pacific alone, that
issue is practically consumed, thus vio-
lating the trust to stockholders. This
material deviation from the conditions
of the purchasing trust invalidates the
bid. Therefore, the government is no.
tilted to hold the moneys received or
receivable as trustee under the commit
tee trust and not as the property Of
the government"
