 YORK'S HEAVY LOSS.-A York
 barber employed in Frank Shirley's
 shop. yesterday experienced the loss of
 S2 in cash and the championship bi- cycle belt of the United States. He
 didn't care so much for the belt but
 the cash is really valuable. A few
 days ago he set the coloTed population
 of this city wild by a statement that he was the swiftest thing on wheels
 that ever came over the pike that leads
 into Arizona. Ed Miller. the porter at The Hoffman, was not easily converted
 as he has been training a boy wonder in the person of Allen smith, the porter at Shirley's shop. Miller said he was good for a $50 wager on Smith in a
 race from Center street to the insane asylum and back. and flashed the money. York failed to come in, but put
 up S2 forfeit money. intimating that
 if they wanted a real race Ghe cerulean blue of the heavens should be the linit, so as to give his friends chance for action. Yesterday was the day set for the race and Miller came around with
 an additional $l0O that he wan.ed to l place as a little side bet. York failed
 to show up and a privte detective watched the race course all day to see
 if he tried to run on he sly. The de t=c:ive reported that he had seen no wnirlwinds passing along the Tempe
  money to pay him for his trouble. Mil l Ter feels that he has got the worso cf it. for he expected to make sl50 on the race.

 sent. but either Hartwell or Hale may be allowed to go and make little ex tra money It is doubtful if a catcher could be found in the territory to hold
 Hartwelrs delivery in his present form. The above clipping from the Los Angeles Herald is one of the fun niest things that paper ever published. though it was not intended to be. Tn idea that nobody in Arizona can catch Hartwelrs delivery, Why, the base ball boys of this territory can catch anything. from bullets to smallpox. Arizona is a sort of base ball hothouse.
 This is where base ball players come 1 to learn the national game Arizona

It was the Arizona catchers that first encouraged Hartwel and Jones to throw hard balls. They were i told to turn themselves Toose and they did so, and when they Were considered ] fairly in form they were allowed to go where they are most needed-in Cali l fornia After they do the necessary i missionary work there they will prob
