DOORS The county of Pinal is so COM
pletely isolated by lack of all railroad
facilities and has so little communica-

that until recently it has been, for the
people of the capital, little more than a
subdivision of the territorial map. Our
merchants. to be sure, have known in
merce between that county and Tucson

trade was a golden harvest for the
business houses of Tucson. Beyond
that their knowledge has not gone. for
there has been no occasion to inquire
into the details of a situation from
which Phoenix. Tempe and Mesa were
barred. The extent. therefore, to which
the mines of the isolated region We're
being developed has not been ques-

But now there is most lively in

Phoenix and Eastern railroad will be-

Salt River valley and the great inland
county will be tied together by steel
rails, and that vast trade which here

brought to Phoenix and neighboring
towns, has led to general inquiries con-
corning the details of that trade and
the future of Pinal county mines.
Captain p. P. Parker, speaker of the

of the mining districts of Pinal county

WARD AND BROWN
 NOT IN TOURNAMENT
BUSINESS HAS KEPT THEM FROM PRACTICE AND THE SOUTHERN TENNIS CHAMPIONS WILL NOT GO TO ATLANTA.

T. Coleman Ward and Charles Brown who hold the southern tennis champion ship in singles and doubles. Ward hold Ing the singles championship, will not enter the tournament at Atlanta to de- fend their titles.
 They have successfully defended their honors for three years and do not feel disposed to again enter the contests.
 Another reason why MT. Brown and Mir. Ward cannot again appear on the field is because business has kept them from practice and in fact has prevented them from taking any active part in the sport.
 The Atlanta papers have seen fit to slightly criticise the champions for not going to Atlanta and a statement that they would probable show up at the last moment and take the other players by surprise is strenuously denied by MT. Ward. Speaking of the criticisms last night MT Ward said:
 .I notice the Atlanta Journal says we may show up at the last moment as we have done before. This does us an in justice. We never did such thing nor ever had any intention of doing such a thing My business has kept me from practcing this season and if was so dis posed I would not be in condition to en- ter the tournament.'

 The two then became involved in dispute and angry words foSowed dpr- ing which the lie was given. This was fol- lowed up by some offensive language us- ed by Policeman Marshall to MT. Mingea. The two men then started towards each other Policeman Marshall warding off a blow from Mr Mingea and striking the latter in the face.
 Captain Wier, who had been called In by Policeman Eagan with the latter s assistant grabbed Mingeas hand as he drew his pistol and carried him out in the alley where they took his pistol from him. It was several minutes before he could be quieted down. Both he and Pe- liceman Marshall were suspended by Cap tain Wier until Chief Austin can be noti- fled and they can be tried before the police commission,

 THEIR CANDIDATE
TEACHERS COMMITTEE APPOINT. ED TO AGREE ON LEGISLATIVE
 CANDIDATE TAKES NO ACTION. TEACHERS TO MEET SATURDAY.

The committee appointed by the School Teachers Association of Jefferson county to select candidate for the legislature met yesterday morning in the office of County Superintendent of Education Mc- Adory and decided not to put out a can didate at present. This committee was appointed for the purpose of either cen terifg on some candidate already an nounced, or of bringing out a candidate of Jefferson county, and to urge such legislation as would be beneficial to them.
 At the meeting yesterday morning, It was decided to refer the matter back b the teachers association. which is call- ed to meet in the court house Saturday morning. All of the candidates f,r the legislature and superintendent of educa- ton are invited to be present and address this meeting.
 The committee appointed for the selec- tion and endorsement of candidate will meet immediately after the adjournment Saturday morning

SUMMER ADJUSTMENTS
AT EAST LAKE.

Lost for Day. was produced at East Lake last evening. It is a funny comedy, or rather a farce, a good title for which would have been "The Baby Hunt" for virtually that is about the plot. The piece is of the lightest comedy possible, abounding in ridiculous situations and good character drawing.
 The play was well staged. the setting of the second and third acts being es- pecially good, all showing the hand of Kendall Weston. The Weston Darlington Stock company handled the farce in cred itable shape. No such prominent parts as these heretofore played by Mir Weston. Miss Darlington or Mss Warren are in this Lost .for a Day., but the ensem. ble is perhaps funnier.
 MT. Weston as a wayward young hus band, MT. Fitzzleton," and Miss Car rington as his jealous wife, played with much effect. Miss Russell played 'Jane,'' the maid, and scored a hit. Miss Warren made great deal out of Miss "Brlm," the elderly maiden lady. Miss Edna Greenough, newcomer, was excellent as "Patience Fizzleton." Miss Read as "Nita," the young mother, was charm ing. MT. Henderson (his first appearance) was satisfactory as 'Irascible'' Daniel Halifax made a big hit as "Yemmy." William Hanway gave manliness to the part of ''William,' the father of the kid, and Jack Taylor made a capital "l1r St. George"
 Mr. Smith as usual rendered songs be- tween the acts.
 Calman's orchestra furnished the music and the large audience left pleased with the performance. The present bill will be run all this week
 Tonight Miss Russell will present her "Yddish Soubrette" speciality. This will be the last time she appears in her vaudeville act. Many who have witnessed this delineation of a most difficult DOT trayal of character work pronounce it the best of it's kind seen on a local stage. Miss Russell will introduce by special re- quest her "Oh, What a Lovely Dream" song.

He was then trying to shoot Marshall and beg ged to be allowed to use his pistol It was not given him and the matter was quieted down.
 The trouble commenced over a broken electric light globe in the toilet rooms in the rear of the hall. Policeman Mar shall sent a negro to get a globe to take the place of a broken one. The negro, however, did not go to MT. Mingea, who has charge of the globes. Policeman Will Patton and MT.
