The Bark-Murray contest came to an end yesterday, and as was foreshad owed in The Republicans figures yes terday morning in the recount of seven IEecfncts the day before, MT. Murray was declared elected. His majority is twenty-two, gain of thirteen over his majority in the official count. The principal incidents of interest dis closed by the contest are that Murray's counted vote was 1862; Bark's, 1,64O. The official count gave Murray 1,702, Bark 1893. Murray's loss was there fore forty, and Bark's fifty-three. There were only three precincts in which either candidate gained in the contest. Murray gained one in each Highland and Cave Creek. Bark gained one in Lehi.
 Objections were made during the contest to 436 tickets; 206 of these were ballots which had been rejected by election boards. Ninety-three bal lots which had figured in the official returns were rejected by the court. No evidence of fraud was disclosed any where and hardly anywhere a. sus- picion of unfairness. The rigid appli- cation of the statute to the ballots alone caused the falling off. In all or nearly all of the ballots thrown out in the contest there was little or no

WHAT PEOPLE SAY. /:


Ben Butler: There is no reason why we can't have fiesta this winter. The city is in better shape to take hold of a proposition of this kind than it was when the first one was held. We raised 5000 at that time and we ought to be able to do it now with our in- creased population and business ad- vancement. I was the first to suggest fiesta and I feel a fatherly interest in 1t and would like to see it take some form. Mayor Adams says he will give $25O, and we should have several con tributors among our business men who will give the same amount. The fiesta should be held during the closing week of the legislature, and if it is held, believe we should endeavor to eclipse the first one and that means the eX- penditure of a large sum of money.
 
 George Stewart: The Phoenix base ball club will have to play it's best when it gets into the game with the as that aggregation has de- feated all clubs in southern Cali fornia this year. The Phoenix boys are putting up good ball now and the game will be a good one.
 
 Captain McMahon: We are arrang- Ing Ser1eS Of base pal games With the Bisbea team, and the games will be played in Tucson if the park manager there gives us acceptable terms. We will play the Bisbee team for the long end of the gate receipts if we win and forty per cent if they win, each club paying it's own expenses.
 w E. Deity: I am glad to hear of the success of James Shirley in selling the United Verde extension mines. MT. Shirley has worked hard and is en- titled to the success which has come to him. There is considerable going on in northern Arizona in mining, and the high price of copper has sent a number of men to the territory who command great wealth.

bubble About Fighting Weights
Nav Not Fight.

Chicago, Jan. PEARSON Davies, man
ager of Joe Choynski, the heavyweight
pugilist, today issued the following u1-
timatum in answer to Kid McCoy's an
nOuncement that he would meet the
Californian at 1872 pounds:
Joe Choynski will fight Kid Mccoy
at catchweights at any place and at
any time for purse of $1,000. He will
agree to no particular weight.
Prospects for meeting. between the
two pugilists, therefore, are not very
bright at present. McCoy's first prop
osition to Choynski was a meeting at
1853 pounds. He afterward agreed to
allow Choynski to enter the ring at 162
pounds, but Parson Davies will not lis
ten to any proposition limiting the
weight of ChOynski.
Heretofore the question of weight
does not seem to have bothered Mccoy
SO much" said he today. why is he
so particular in this instance? He
fought Creedon at catchweights, and
Dick O'Brfen, and when he promised
me a match with Joe after the Long Is
land City match, he said nothing about
1872 pounds. We will not agree to pun
the fight off at Carson City just to
please Dan Stuart. That is too far
away, and we don't propose to match
until next summer, either, just to
please Mccoy and Dan Stuart.

MISS CRANE UPHELD.
Washington Society Rallies to Her
Defense.

New York, Jan. IA telegram from
Washington says: Society leaders of
this CRY condemn the chaperons at the
Charleston, S. c., ball for ejecting Miss
Crane because Of her connection with
the stage"
Mrs. Sherman, wife of the secretary
of state, who is familiar with Charles
ton society, says that the population is
largely composed of descendants of the
old Scotch Presbyters, the most straight
laced of people.
80 strong is the feeling there against
members of the theatrical profession, .
said Mrs. Sherman, that to- this day
the people call them play folks with
out distinction do not understand
why either man or woman should be
condemned by reason of his or her pro-
fession. LOOK at the long list of good
and talented performers who have
helped to elevate the stage. 1 might
name Mary Anderson, Ellen Terry,
Emma Abbott, and a host of others
who have been received on terms of
social equality.
Mrs. Miles. wife OF the general of the
army, said:
L do not indorse such narrow preju-
dice in any one, much less a community
composed of such refined and cultivated
people. as Charleston. 1 see no reason
why a woman should be debarred from
participating in social life on account
of her profession. We live in a day of
too great enlightenment to encourage
such narrOwness. If a wOman's pri-
RaL6 lie IS lTIepIOdCHdDlC there - ItO
reason why she should be debarred
from participation in society. Look at
Ethel Barrymore, for example. She is
universally acknowledged by society;
also such members of the profession as
the Drews, Jefferson, and Ellen Terry.
Everywhere they receive hattering rec
ignition
Miss Bessie Stewart, daughter of the
Nevada senator, said:
The real question is not the profess
sion but the woman. If the life is pure
and upright there is nothing to say in
regard to the calling 1 see no reason
why Miss Crane should have been in
suited at the ball when the only Of
tense was that of her profession"
