sTOPOVER PRIVILEGES
Coast Excursionists Had Delightful
 Time at Maricopa.

Passengers who left for the coast via the southern route on Thursday night enjoyed a special privilege that has not hitherto been granted the purchasers Of excursion tickets any time this summer. That particular inducement was a stopover privilege of twenty-five hours dt Maricopa, during which the keys of the town were thrown in the we'll and everything in sight was turned over to the visitors.
 The westbound train was reported a few hours late the evening before, but as time wore on it came to be known
 that that particular train had been abandoned and never would get in. It was due at Maricopa at 9 o'clock Thursday and finally arrived there at 9:30 or 10 last night. The trouble was occasioned by washouts in Texas east of Fl Paso.
 George Alkire was the only passen- ger billed out that failed to go. and did not leave Phoenix till last night Late Thursday afternoon he was engaged in praying for rain, and was making such good progress that when he heard a special would leave for MaricOpa at 1:30 he decided to miss the regular train and go down on the special. He kept up his importunities with the rain god all evening, and by g o'clock had | the rain coming in good shape. Then he ''throwed" himself, but it was of little | use. He could only keep the rain com l ing for half hour, but he had tired l himself out so much that he went to l sleep and forgot all about the special. ] He announces though that there will be more rain shortly after his departure.

IMPROVEMENT IS AT SACATON
Many New Buildings to Be Erected at
 Once.

F. Hadley, agent of the Pima and Maricopa Indians, is in the city from Sacaton, a guest of the Hotel Adams. He reports the conditions on the reser- vation as very much improved and the prospects for the Indians materially frightening.
 Aside from the money appropriate ted for the immediate necessities of the In- dians. the principal matter of import
 ince is the construction of new agency buildings. giving added facilities for government employees and additional advantages for the education of the native children.
 Advertisements for bids for the con- struction of employees quarters are now contract. But in this addition to this work the department has authorized Agent Hadley to erect buildings for three day schools and a brick building to be used in teaching the industrial arts. These new buildings will broaden the opportunities of the Indians, and for the older ones at least will afford some measure of financial relief to off,
 set the loss of crops. A great part of the work can and will be done by native
 la aborers, who will of course receive d fair remuneration, thus placing a con- siderable sum of money in circulation
 among them. These things, with their latest hopes for an ample supply of irrigation water, have had a tendency to make both agent and ward face the
 future with greater cheerfulness.

OUR NATIONAL DISEASE.
 Caused By Coffee.

Physicians know that drugs will not correct the evils caused by coffee, and the only remedy is to stop drinking it.
 Dr. w. J. Allison, of Heber Ark, says: II have been coffee drinker for 50 years and have often thought that l could not live without it, but af- ter many years of suffering with our national malady. dyspepsia. l attrib- uted it to the drinking of coffee. and after some thought, determined to- use POstum Food Coffee for my morning drink. I saw that Postun was made carefully with directions, and found ii just suited my taste. At first. l used it only for breakfast. but l found my self getting so much better that | used it at all meals, and 1 am pleased to say that it has entirely cured me of in digestion. I gained 19 pounds in i months and my general health is greatly improved.
 l must tell you of young lady ir Illinois. She had been in ill health foi many years. the vital forces low. with but little pain. I wrote her of the good that Postum did me and advised hel to try it. At the end of the year, sht wrote me that Postum had entirely cured her, and that she had gained 4 pounds in weight and felt like herself again.

GENERAL KITCHENER
 MOBBED BY ADMIRERS
The Conqueror of South Africa Re
 ceived by the Police.

London, July 25.-Lord Kitchener, who has been largely lost to public view since his triumphal re-entry into London on July F, received an unex- pected demonstration of London enthu- siasm today. when cab in which he visited the city was actually mobbed close to the bank of England, and the conqueror of South Africa had to be rescued by the police.
 Lord Kitchener drove to a private bank near the Mansion house. He was instantly recognized, and such a crowd collected outside that he had to es- cape through a side door. He was de- tected, however, and he drove off amid l frantic cheers, which he smilingly ac- knowledged with salute.
 While passing through Queen Vic toria street Kitchener was again rec cgnized. and his cab was held up by q cheering crowd. The police had tt open way before the vehicle could 1 proceed.

politan avenue in Argentine, witnessed two women yesterday afternoon fight for the place of affection in his heart The affair took place at the corner of Metropolitan and Spear streets.
 Walters was driving along the street in a buggy with Miss Emma Prater when the horse stopped suddenly, and the next moment a silk parasol landed on Miss Prater's headgear. Then strong hands seized her and she landed on the pavement. The assailant was Mrs. Minnie German, widow living on West Metropolitan avenue.
 Miss Prater fought back, and hair pins, hat pins and wearing apparel be- "an flying in every direction. When Walters recovered from his daZed con- dition he separated the malcontents, after which Mrs. German suddenly disappeared and Miss Prater started for the city hall to swear out war rant for her rival. The case will likely be aired in the police court.

GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.

Chicago, July 25.-Grain traders be- held the odd spectacle today of oats selling higher than both wheat and corn, and yet the phenomenon caused hardly ripple in the dull and unin- teresting business. July new oats sold at 72c, then a few shorts wanted the stuff. Cash oats were absorbed by the bull leaders as high as 71c in order to keep them from the shorts. While oats were selling in driblets at these fancy figures. September wheat was around 71a4c. and hitherto fancy July corn at something under 61c. In general, how ever, it may be said that the July cor ner is resting. The shorts in wheat corn and oats in that month seemed penned in by the big interests. The other markets were doing little because of the fair weather good crop report and other bearish influences which in turn have had little effect because of the fears of July manipula tion In the end September wheat closed 3s@1ac down. September corn 1sc lower, July corn 11ac lower, September oats 3s@Lac lower and July oats Rc higher Pro- visions were irregular and closed 121hc up to 1713c lower.
 September wheat opened 72c to 72Ac dipped to 713sc and closed 71Ac Sep tember corn sold from Gle down to 6O1sc and closed at 60Kc. September oats sold between 345sc and 337sc and closed S4@341sc

RETURN OF GOV. ERODE.
Pleased With His Journey Tn rough h
 Southern Arizona.

Governor Brodie returned yesterday from a trip of inspection to the insti- tutions in the southern part of the ter ritory He was accompanied by Mrs. Brodie and his son. He left here last Sunday night and went to Tucson, where he met the regents of the uni versity and made an inspection of that institution. He next visited the peni- tentiary. He was given very cordial reception by the people of Yuma.
 The governor was well pleased with his tour and the condition in which he found public affairs in southern Ari- zona.
 It was expected that he would an- nounce some appointments yesterday. but none was made. The train on which the governor returned to the city was several hours late, and he did not arrive until nearly noon, so that there was not much of the work ing day left, and that was spent in the preparation of his annual report. It is believed that some official changes will be made known today, though the gov ernor has not yet given an intimation that any will be made so soon.

The Arena, San Francisco July 25.-. After fighting a battle of eight rounds that was fraught with brilliant and courageous work, Robert FitZsimmons tonight forfeited his last claim upon the heavyweight championship. He was knocked to the floor by James Jeffries and counted out after he had so badly punished the champion that it was q foregone conclusion among the specta- tors that the Cornishman must win. Bleeding from a number of gashes in the face. apparently weakening and clearly unable to cope with FftZsim- mons superior skill, Jeffries delivered two lucky punches as FitZ paused in his fighting to speak to him and turneI the tide.
 The battle was brief but noteworthy and will live in pugilistic history. Fitz tried once to arise from the mat, bu. sank down again in helplessneSs and heard himself counted out. where but q mement before he had apparently all the better of it.
 Il will never fight again. said thc battle-scarred veteran of the ring when he had sufficiently recovered to talk
 
 best man belongs the laurels.
 ''You are the most dangerous man alive" said Jeffries in return, and consider myself lucky to have woI when I did"
 Fitz had been fighting at q furious gait, cool and deliberate, and choppinS the champion to pieces with terrific rights and lefts that have made him famous. It was the drausht horse and the racer from the tap of the gong. When the men came together FitZ ap- pcared rather worried. but upon the opening of the first round he assumed an air of absolute confidence and fought with the dclibcration Of the gen. eral that he is.
 As early as the second round Fitz had Jeff bleeding profusely from his mouth and nose. Again and again he landed on his bulky opponent, getting away in such clever manner that 1t brought down the house with great cheers. It seemed indeed that Jeff could scarcely weather out the gale.
 Then the eighth round came, and un- der q series of hot exchanges Fitz paused with his guard down and spoke to the champion. The latter's reply consisted of two terrific blows that brought back to him teh neeting cham piOnship and forever removed the vet eran FitZ from the fistic arena. Fit took his defeat win amazing coClness and good cheer. He walked to the cen ter of the ring and raising his hand addressed the multitude, saying:
 The best man has won. Had beaten Jeff tonight I should have con- ceded him the championship and for ever retired from the ring. I retire just the same now, but without having accomplished my ambition. l am sat isfied."

THE FIGHT.

Round 1.-They came quickly to the center, Jeff in half crcuching attitude
 nd both feinted rapidly. Jeff followed Bob around feinting with the left and looking for opening. Fitz was the first to lead He sent a short right jab to the jaw and another a moment later. Jeff croucked and rushed, but Fitz neatly stepped out of the way. Jeff rushed again and F'itZ smOthereG his left for the body. Both of them did
 l lot of feinting, Jeff finally trying a left for the face, but it fell short. He forced his man into the corner, but missed q hard left swing. Then Fitz tried for the face, landing lightly. Jeff sent q hard left on body and Bob coun- tered on the head without damage Jeff continually forced his man and when the gong sounded the Cornishnan was or the aggressive. When the cham piCn took his corner his nose was bleed ing slightly from one of Fitz' left jabs. He looked confident, however. and sat watching TitZ during the minutes re- spite
 Round Jeff went right after FitZ- simmons, trying left for the head and falling short. Fitz jabbed d left to neck and Jeff smiled and forced him tn his corner. The lanky fellow quickly side stepped out of the way. Fitz tried right for the head, but was quickly and neatly blocked. F'itZ broke ground i before Jeff's left, but finally tried d I left for the head. It was light. how ! ever. and the champion caught il or i the shoulder. They exchanged lefts. 1 Bob putting a stiff left on the face. i Jeff crouched lower and sent Fitz back | lor+ 1 F'itz put two left hooks on the face and got out of the way of the champions left Jeff went at him with d stiff left
 on head. He got q left jab on the nose that brought blood in a stream from
 Jeff's nose. At the close of the round Jeff was somewhat worried, but took
 matters coolly during the minutes l rest. His nose was bleeding freely. F'itz
 on the other hand was as cool as a cu-
 cumber and was not in the least blown.
 Round 3-Jeff is .orcing matters.
 His bloody nose annoyed him q little. 1 He changed his tactics for moment
 and stood up straight. Two left leads
 were blocked by Fitz and a left jab on 1 the sore nose was returned. Jeff tried
 another left. but was stopped by q | left Jab on the face. In the act Jeit
 pushed Fitz back. Fitz put d stiff one
 on the nose and Jeff bled freely. Jeff

 round from his nose and the gash over
 his right eye. Billy Delaney husel
 himself over him between rounds. Round 4.-Jef looked enraged as he
 crouched and clinched his lips. He was
 very careful and stayed clear of F'itz

ENTRANCE TO THE RING.

At 1O:O5 D. m. Bob F'itzsimmons
 stepped into the ring carrying his
 gloves and dressed in long light blue
 bathrobe. Following him were Clark
 Ball, Hank Griffin and George Dawson
 and the bottle holder.
 At 10:06 D. m. Jeffries stepped into the ring. dressed in a long Overcoat, pants. sweater and Panama hat. About him were Billy Delaney. Joe Egan, Joe Ken nedy and George Miller. Jeffries walk ed up and inspected Fitzsimmons' ban dages, passing them without comment. Both men were given q warm reception. Jim Corbett sent a challenge to fight the winner. This was received with 1 applause, but when a moment later the ] announcer stated that Sharlley had sent challenge there was considerable | hooting and jeering.
 Fitzsimmons wore bandages on both hands.
 Ben Solomon was timckeepcr for the club. Edward Wheeler for FitZsimmons | and Billy Gallagher for Jeff. When Jeff stripped off his sweater he showed up to perfection. He looked as if he had taken eff considerable weight. but his muscles stood out firm and hard. His flesh was as brown as q berry. showing the effects of hard work. F'itZ was introduced first and was given quite as hearty a greeting as
 that which greeted the champion a moment later. Bob doffed his dressing gown. showing up in splendid shape. | He wore short lavender tights and q belt of the American flag. Jeff wore black tights and q belt of | the American flag.

THE PRELIMINARY.
The Great Arena Was Thronged Early
 in the Night

The Arena, San Francisco, July 25.- It was late in the afternoon when the green canopy covering of the octagonai ring in which the battle took place was finally stretched. The grounds were then cleared by the police and the stragglers were elected. Before sun- down long lines of anxious men formed on Valencia street and Julian avenue and awaited the opening of the two gates. There was no disorder until s o'clock, when the crush became heavy. but 240 burly policemen marshaled un- der Chief Whitman handled the crowd well. The lights all over the ring were turned on at 1:45 o'clock, by which time the bIeachers holding fully 5,G00 peo- pie were filed
 The usual night fog did not prevail. and although the evening air was chill there was no discomfort.
 Kid Egan, representing the cham pion; Clark Ball for Fitzsimmons and Alec Greggains for the San Francisco Athletic club inspected the premises al o'clock and agreed that all was il readiness for the fight.
 The odds had changed from 10 to to 3 to 1 with Jeffries the favorite.
 At S:25 D. m. the crowd became dense The aisles were congested and muct confusion in seating the ticket holder! ensued. These things were soor strengthened out, however, and wher the principals of the preliminary fiSh came on there was hardly q Vacan place in all the $500 seats provided.
 At S:45 p. m. the only prelininar, fight was put on. It was a twenty round affair between two local middle weights-Dave Barry and Harry Foley Foley knocked out Barry in thu eleventh round.
 A four-cornered hippodrome affair between four negroes was put on anf caused much merriment among tht crowd.
