Three Rival square Rugged ships Dash

From the San Francisco Examiner.
The crew OF the British ship lnyeram-
say that came into port last night re-
ported witnessing an exciting race be-
tween three big ships in midocean 1t
was on December /, while the lnver-
amsay was beating against head wind
on her way from Swansea to this port
in latitude 1890 north and longitude
lis west, when the lookout warned the
watch Of three vessels on the weather
beam. Just the top spars Of three
square-rigged vessels could be seen
above the horizon bearing down upon
the lnyeramsay, with a stiff breeze al
most dead astern. AS soon as they
came within speaking distance they
hoisted their signal numbers. They
were the American ship Puritan, the
British ship Ross-shire and the British
ship Cromartyshire. The three ves-
sells left this port on November 2l, each
with a cargo Of grain. The Puritan Is
bound for Hun, the Ross-shire for Lon
don and the Cromartyshire for Queens
town. They were bound out to sea with
In an hour of each other. and race
to the British ports commenced. The
three ships have records as fast salers,
and some idea OF how evenly matched
they are can be obtained from the fact
that after racing for over 1000 miles
they were abreast of each other. and
sll OF them carrying all the canvas

ship was flying her colors from the

were the signal flags, Follow me and
you will make port" The Ross-shire
was asking her two companions with
Der flags If they wanted a tow while
the Cromartyshire was signaling

HIS FIRST AND LAST DRINK.
He Rode a Wheel on a Widespread
 Debauch

There is a young man in Phoedx who will believe to his dying day that he was "doped' on Wednesday night. About midnight officers Bailey and Hale saw man lying in the gutter on Third street near Jefferson. The re- mains of a bicycle lay in the middle of the street, the sprinkling wagon or some other heavy vehicle having been drawn over it several times. It was almost worthless even as scrap iron. The condition of the young man in the gutter was sufficient to excite the con- miseration of gods and men. He was altogether the dirtiest and most dis reputable looking individual the off cers had encountered. They disliked to touch him but they couldn't leave him there. Besides, they recognized him as a respectable young man who had been regarded as a model The officers at length picked him up, one holding him by each arm and started for the calaboose The young man evidently imagined he was riding bicycle. He bumped his back and worked his legs as if he were pedaling. When the off, cers got to jail with him they were pug
 
 affront to all the other prisoners. They accordingly isolated him by leaving him outside under the rear stairway of the city hall. When he awoke yesterday morning and saw Jailor Duncan standing near, he was terrorized-
 . My God" he said. 'fF1ow can I get Out of this?"
 ''I don't see no strings tied to you. Chase yourself, and be quick, for it'll be broad daylight pretty soon"
 He chased himself but before, going told the jailor that he had taken his first drink the night before and also his last. He believed that some un- kind person had mixed harmful drug in his beverage. The officers re- fuse to divulge the name of the young man.

SENATOR MILLER'S VISIT.
His Impressions Gained in Half
 Days Drive About Phoenix.

Senator Warmer Miller of New York was driven over the valley north and east of the city yesterday afternoon, and was given his first daylight view of it. He visited the citrus fruit or chards near the Arizona canal, was driven past the Indian school and taken to all points of interest within a half days excursion.
 On his return he was seen by a re- porter for The Republican. Said he: l'I am profoundly and favorably inn pressed with what I have seen. Phoe- nix is much more important city than I expected to see, although we in the east have had very favorable reports of the city and its surround
 ings. I think Phoenix and this coun- try has a great future before it. It is easy to see that this Salt River val ley is a great natural garden. I am told that it's complete development is dependent upon an increase in the
 water supply, which can easily be obtained with the aid of capital. The fruit industry, which will become the chief one in this valley, is growing to be more and more important yearly. The market for fruit |. widening far DGyOuu Lllo pOSSlUIo IICf6dS6 or grow ing facilities, so that prices will all ways be good. A peculiar advantage here is the earliness of the season for the maturity of fruit, enabling grow CTS to get upon the market in ad- vance of competition. I think this will become a great citrus fruit re- zion. The destruction of the Florida groves couple of years ago is some thing liable to happen again. so that attention is being turned to this coun- try where a comparative immunity from frosts is afforded. But the great resource of Arizona will be its mining industry. We are entering upon a period of the greatest mining activity the country has ever known. Only a very small part of Arizona has been explored, but that small part has given an earnest of the wonderful richness of the whole region, which I believe is the richest in the Unrted States" MT. Miller called upon Governor
 McCord and Secretary Akers after his 1 return from the drive. He visited
 the curio stores and took away witt
