Bad WashOut on 5. P.

A report was rife today that ten miles
of the Southern Pacific railroad had
been washed out near Indio, Californi t..
Inquiry among railroad men reveals
the fact that the rumor was unfounded.
The Southern Pacific has suffered, how
ever, there having been washout that
will take forty-e,ght hours to repair at
Mammoth Tanks, fifty miles West OF

Sundays Ball Game
Batters Beaten.

The Tucson Greys, or the Tucson ball
team, has always been held in high es-
TEEN by those who feared superior.
They were sit" for a long time and
threw down any and all who dared
upon the diamond. Bat there came a
day, and the Bisbee boys did the Greys
up to brown finish. 1t was q we'll
played game and resulted in 3 to 0.
A great many people witnessed the
contest and much interest was manifest
ed on both sides. II was clean game where
neither side sought to take advantage OF
the other, and was, consequently, an
entertaining event.
There were about three hundred peo-
pie from Bisbee, all of whom cheered
loudly for the copper city team, but none
could have done them greater honor
than the Tucson boys who in acknow-
Lodging defeat entertained their visitors
royalty and as far as they could, turned
the old pueblo over to the victors.
The entire town was theirs and they
used it; they were lions OF the day they
were feasted, feted and toasted-but not
roastcd-admired for their gentlemanly
demeanor, for better lot of ball tossers
never came to Tucson.
Many who were scheduled to return
on the evening train did not do go; they
were entertained 80 highly that they
could not hear the whistle or the clang
Of the bell.
Johnny Twomey the coach for the
entire outfit, managed to make his es-
cape amid tumultuous throng of friends
who were attempting to keep him over
for year.
Two OF our prominent citizens-Nat
Hawke and George Christ, Jr., were kid
naped by the Bisbce boys and were
being held captives in the basement Of
the Elks' hall when friends entered and
secured their liberty.
The day was pleasantly spent, and the
Tucson base ballclub will ever remem-
ber the Bisbee boys as good fellows and
excellent sportsmen.

reported on time.
There were nearly four hundred peo-
pie in Tucson from Bisbee yesterday
They had huge old time, and especial
ly did they give vent to their feelings
when they were made guests at the
Elks' club.
About seventy-five OF the Bisbee visi-
tors failed to make connection with the
east bound train yesterday afternoon.
They were ''all aboard" today, however,
but regretted that they could not re-
main indefinitely. Such is Tucson life.
Sister Mary Gonzaga was buried from
the Conven MT today, the religious cere-
monies having been conducted at the
Catholic cathedral. Sister Mary was in

bre Grande Company at Cananea, has
been in Tucson several days, and left

he will spend tive weeks exporting a
mine. Mr.. Jenson is regarded by min
ing men as one among the most thor
ough in his profession.
The Bisbee BOYS made capture while
here yesterday. They eaueht the one
mile shay unprotected, and thinking
that they were on level to bin, took
possession, and that old street car had
hu1ry.up time down Congress street,
with the result that number OF street
car employees are busy today repairing
imaginary injuries.
Deputy l.. S. Marshal Reno's descrip-
ton Of lake at Pantano, covered with
oil, has not attracted much attention in
this section. 1t is not believed that MIR,
Reno made snch statements to the p-ess
OF Phoenix. 1t is hoped that he did
not, but if he did tell the alleged story,
his friends are anxious that the asser-
tions can be verified.
A horse and buggy belonging to Frank
Allison that was hitched in front OF the
Western Union telegraph office in the
forenoon, suddenly disappeared. The
police were informed in due time, and a
couple OF hours later found the horse
and buggy in possession OF two boys.
The boys explained that they found
the outfit in the outskists of the town
wandering aimlessly, and were bringing
il in to the City Hall.

The Irish Potato
FlOuriSheS Here.

The Irish potatoes on exhibition from
the Aravapai section call forth comment
as they are OF the finest and smoothest
growth that can be produced. The
Irish potato is indigenous to this section
Of country, and Is found growing wild in
many localities. especially in Yavapai
and Coconino counties.
Speaking OF the potato today, well
known rancher remarked that there is
more money In the production of this
food than in raising cattle. On the Cata-
lima mountains the experiment has been
tested with good results. There is no
need Of irrigation, and the poorest varie-
ty OF potato has an astonishing growth

smooth vegetable and Is superior to any
potato that is shipped into Arizona. 1t

Several experiments have been made
with the potato on the mountains near
Tucson, and the only reason snccess has
not attended the ventnres IL the fact
that the country is too ragged, there are
no roads. and to pack the crop to market

Lyman Wakefield speaks we'll of the

The MAYORS CONTRIBUTE
Hoos and Pagan Each Gives $5
to Test Meeker Bill.

That the people of Hudson County are
awake to the dangers that surround the
attempt to abolish spring elections is
shown by the fact that cash contributions
amounting to $52 have already been re-
ceived from that source alone, while
others have promised to send their checks
for various amounts. In order that more
people might contribute than there would
otherwise be need of, the Hudson County
people did not give more than s. each.
That amount, however, is not to be the
limit of contributions.
Some Of the contributors were willing
to give more than S., but decided to wait
before increasing their offerings. One of
the contributors stated that he would be
willing to associate with four or five
other gentlemen to pay the entire cost
of the appeal to the Supreme Court for a.
test of the constitutionality of the Meeker
act.
Among the Hudson County opponents
of the bill, the following made contribu-
tions:-

of Whittier House Settlement, held in
the house parlors, a few days ago, it was
decided that as Miss Cornelia Bradford,

Miss Bradford was called out of the room
on some pretext, SO that yesterday, when
Mrs. E. T. Davey called to take lunch
with Miss Bradford and informed her

WALLS NO PROTECTION.
Clerk Street Bridge Over
Newark Railroad Needs
Attention.

Residents in the vicinity of the Clerk
street bridge over the Newark Railroad
are complaining of the dangerous condi-
ton of the retaining walls on each side
of the antiquated structure. Today they
are falling to pieces and the sidewalks
are ready to cave in. On the east side of
the cut the wall is breaking in several
places. There is one gap that is very no
ticeable and will, if not repaired, be the
cause OF destruction to the entire wall
and walks. The aperture is at least three
yards in circumference and pieces of
stone and mortar are falling out day by
day.
The condition of these walls was called
to the attention of the officials a year
ago by THE News" The opposite wall,
which is on the same street-that is, the
Forrest street side-is also very much
dilapidated. The store work is loosely
constructed. Every stone is loose and IN
danger of falling out of place into the cut
below.
The residents claim that the retaining
walls were never Rraaerly constructed.
Children are now " no way protected
from falling into the cut should they
crawl through these big holes.
Repairs were recently made on the
fences at the Arlington avenue bridge
where they were badly needed. Some at
tention should be paid to the fences at
Jackson avenue and at Ocean avenue.

GUARDING THE CROSSING.
F1agman Is Stationed at Randolph
Ayeuue

Since the recent disastrous accident at
the Randolph avenue crossing of the
Newark branch of the Central Railroad,
when a grocery wagon was demolished
and horse killed and the driver injured
a flagman has been stationed there to
warn people and drivers. This driveway
is frequented more and more every day,
and the difficulty of safe passage in
creases with time. The residents are
speaking of taking steps to force the rail-
road to put gates up at that point to pro-
vide additional safeguards against acci-
dents.
About year ago, the railroad made an
attempt to close this crossing. A gang of
Italians was sent up to build fences
across the highway. Patrolman Fred
Herring, of the Communipaw avenue po-
lice station caught tho men in time The
ferce erected was taken down. Since
then no efforts have been made to close
the crossing to passage.

West Side Improvement Club asking the
Board to appropriate money for a new

of the amount appropriated was neces-
sary and the balance, considerably more
than is necessary to erect the desired
railing, was handed back to the city.
An order was ordered drawn on the City
Treasurer in favor of that officer for S. 90
which it is desired to transfer from the IL
censa fund to the account of rebuilding
