A PHOENIY HAN
Who May Be an Heir to Large Chil-
 ian Estate.

Joseph Balsz and the children of his to a large estate in Chili through their mother. Mrs. BalsZ whose maiden name was Donna Mercedes Gonzales, was a member of a wealthy Chilian family living at Valparaiso. There were two children of the family to which she belonged, an elder brother being high officer in the Chilian navy who was killed in the war between Chili and Peru in 1891.
 Mrs. Balsz, when quite young, left Chili in the company of a lady relative who had recently married a French Jew. They went to San Francisco. At that time her only immediate relatives living were a grand mother and the naval officer. When she grew to early womanhood she met Frederick Balsz, eloped with him and was married She and her husband came to Phoenix in an early day and lived here until the early seventies when she died leaving two children.
 She had frequently spoken of her family and of an estate consisting Of Q tract of land twenty leagues square which her grandmother was going to ltdNS lO Her SIiOElly DSLOIt HGI LII the Chilian consul at San Francisco came to Phoenix to visit her. Re had not been sent for and the object of his coming was not made plain though it was understood that he had been or dered to collect facts about her life He took a great many notes and said he would forward them to his govern ment.
 He was not afterward heard of and the family let the affair drop until about seven months ago Joseph Balsz took it up with the authorities at Val paraiso and requested to be put in possession of facts about Ter birth and family. It was only known that her birth occurred sometime between the years 1880 and 1895.
 Yesterday MT. BalsZ received through the American consul at Valparaiso the desired information, but as no inquiry had been made regarding the estate. il any exists. there was no information upon that point. The document is ] bulky affair in Spanish and English and contains the church record of the birth of Mrs. Balsz and other facts ir connection with her family
 The matter of the estate will shortly be taken by her heirs here.

II HUNG CHANG AND THE COOK.

Joe Green, in charge of A. J. Gas Satts private car, fell dead in the Pennsylvania station in Philadelphia, one day last week.
 Greens reputation as a cook was widespread. His claim to distinction In this capacity lay in the fact that he could prepare good old-fashiored Southern dishes. When Ii HunS Chang visited this country he was car Tied back and forth in car 60. He want ed q special American dish one day. ana MT. Thompson told Green to give the CEiIaman some cld-fashioned corr cakes. cooked on the griddle.'' Ii mar aged to get away with whole plate of the cakes and ignored the rest of the meal It will be remembered that the old viceroy was of a very inquiring turn of mind. When he finished dinner he turned to Green and asked:
 What do you get a year for cooking meals like this?''
 Joe" who had been warned to look out for Lis questions, promptly an- swered:
 "Mr. Thompson pays me s5,OCO year. sir
 Ii was for . moment staggered by the figures. but soon recovered and said
 ''These cakes are fire. but s5.000 is tee much to pay for cuok. I think l shall tell Mr. Thompson to cut it down ta $4.G00 if you've no objections. w ash ington Times.

THE BICYCLE TRIST.

When three of the largest Broadway houses quit handling bicycles it is pos sible to understand why the stock of the American Bicycle company (the bi- cycle trusO is selling at 1212 cents q share in the street fer the common ard $1 a share for the preferred. The par value of the shares is S100. It means that the trust is not able to dispose Of it's product. But there are men like tho Popes. Featherstones, Barbour. Spalding. Coleman, Unzicker Johnson, Lane, Bromley, Morton. and Riser who believe that a renewal of the bicycle craze is nearly due, and that there are more big fortunes to be made in the manufacture. They are shrewd men, with millions at their call and they may be right.-New York Press.

4 WRESTLER IN CONGRESS.
Birc Mcclure, the Oklahoma Delegatf
 Is Hard Man to oDwn.

Kansas City Journal: The Hor. Bird 2. Mcclure, Oklahoma's new delegate to Congress. was not only one of the nerviest cowboys and broncilo busters on the plains before he became law yer. but in lis early days he made g Iepiii ton also as q wrestler which stil: sticks. There would not na nlu'il difficulty now in persuading him to participate in bout. provided! il could be done so secretly as not to in crf,.re with the dignity essential to his con- gressional position.
 In 1884. when young A.cGtlire was a student at the State Normal at I-n- poria. Kan, he was iH tne height Of his athletic glory. He could throw and out box everybody in the school, including his roommate, the nov governor of l'Okl&homG. the Hon. Tom B. Ferguson. He practiced this sport for several years after he left school and soon be- came known as the best man in Chau- tauqua county and in all southwestern Kansas.
 In 1886 d great county fair was held at Sedan. The occasion afforded an op- portunity for the friends of Mcclure to l test his mettle and establish his supe- riority over all rivals 4 wrestling

His name was | Weber and he was every inch an ath- lete. A special train was chartered. and all the sporting fraternity of In 1 dependence went to Sedan on the day l of the fair.
 | A company Of gentlemen chatting in a Kansas City Hotel recently, who saw | this affair between Mcclure and We 1 ber, said it was pretty contest as was ever pulled off. Both men were about equally matched and showed evi- dence of long and careful training 1 There were three bouts and the strug- l gle lasted one hour and a half At 1 the end McGuire was seen to break | from what appeared to be death-like 1 hold, raise his antagonist high in the | air above his head and hurl him to the ground limp ard almost lifeless We her at the very point of winning broke q finger, and this accident gave Mc- Guire the advantage and final victory. ! Over 5000 changed hands in this con- l test.

by one the wheelmen strain the law little, growing bolder day by day till finally the marshal has to open up q new campaign and jar somebody. Of course the first dozen arrested get very mad about it and plead that they saw others riding and thought it was all right and that they will never do it again. etc.
 Strange as it may seem, a great many women and girls are the most fre quent and constant offenders. They think that if they just ride up half 3 block to where they want to go that nobody will care. Then, too. some of them think that no gentlemanly police man would arrest a lady for a little thing like that. forgetting that they are the people that other riders point to in attenuation when they are caught. There is, it is true, an impulse tha; prompts an officer to shut his eyes when a lady is guilty of some mild mira ction. out there comes q time when the officers can't shut their eyes. The time is here now.
 The Wheelmen have finally reached the point where their sins are too nu merous for he wide spreading wings Of charity 10 cover and the city marshal gives it out cold that hereafter the way of the transgressor is to be made hard. He has instructed his men to play no favorites: to never mind who is on the wheel when the wheel is on the side walk, but obey orders and arrest them regardless. If the rider happens to be a man he will either laugh CT get mad. but will have to answer to the law just the same. If q woman she will prob ably cry. but the officer can't help that. She should have been q man or else obey the law.

WARMING TO WHEELnEN
Riding on Sidewalks Hereafter Will
 Be Perilous.

People who ride bicyles are about the hardest class of citizens to keep in porper restraint that the police have to deal with. The city ordinances prohibit people from riding on the sidewalk. The prohibition is in good straight English and is for a good purpose. Were It not for this regulation the side . walks would be full of wheels and peo- pie would be constantly run over by them.
 Every few months the general public seems to conceive the idea that the bicycle ordinance has lapsed, and one

SHARKEY'S SECRETARY.

Among local patrons of sports q story is now in circulation which rela tes how Peter MiesOn once served for | week or more as private secretary to Tom Sharkey, the heavyweight pugilist, without ever receiving any salary or even enjoying the title.
 It was at Colorado Springs, where Pete occupied room next that of the fighter. After some neighborly visit ing, the two became quite chummy, and when Sharkey would come i-a mornings, after his daily exercise. ha would bundle himself up in bed and say:
 Just run through my mail, will you. Pete, while I am cCCling off
 Pete. always obliSing and friendly. would regularly read the mail to the big fighter, and then, by request, would call 9 stenographel to the room and dictate replies to such letters as seem . ed to demand it. Sharkey would say:
 Does me manager say to put me monaker on dat?" and being so as sured, he would sign the document, and Pete would dictate a letter to go with it.
 This had been going on about a week or two when Tommy Ryan and some of the other boys arrived, and one daS- Ryan said to Mieson:
 ."I wonder who is reading Sharkey's mail to him now
 "Why. I have been reading his let ters in the morning." replied Pete, but how did you know"
 Well. you sec, Ee can't read or write and only learned to sign his name Il few months ago, so it's q cinch he get to frd an cbliging friend wherever : he goes or else pay some one q salary. So you're the good thing, are you? I wouldn't have believed it.'-F,Xchange.

CUBAN TREATY TO PASS
Objection Removed by an Amend
ment Giving the House a
4 Vote on It.

4 Washington. March b President
Roosevelt will call the fifty-eighth con-
gress in extra session In the autumn. prob
ably on Oct. 10, to have a joint concur
rent resolution passed approving the
Cuban reciprocity treaty to be ratihed by
the senate next week. sEas-,. .-
If the present extra session should ad-
journ without acting on the reciprocity
treaty congress will be called together i'm
mediately. >z<*%1 :... . T..
AS the late fall is the time for market
ing the bulk of the Cuban sugar crop it
is thought that by meeting in October
congress can pass the legislation necessary
to put the treaty into effect in time to
give the planters the benefit Of the new
tariff rates during the present year.
The House VIII Vote on 1t.
The principal objection to the Cuban
reciprocity treaty was removed when the
committee on foreign relations reported
1t with an amendment providing that it
should not so into effect until approved
by congress. r
Senator German denies that the demo-
Gratis are opposing the Cuban treaty. He
says individual democrats from cane and
beet sugar states oppose it, as do repub-
licanS from the same states but as g.
party the democrats have never consid-
cred the treaty. The majority Of them
favor reciprocity. +. ..:yH
The outlook is that both treaties will
be ratified before the end of next week
and the special session of the senate come
to an end.
The Panama Treaty.
Senators Hanna, Aldrich and Lodge are
working to secure the ratification of the
Panama canal treaty without amendment
and they believe they have the votes to
reject all amendments as it will be by a
majority of the senate.
Senator German says that the canal
treaty is not q party question and will not
be treated as such. Both parties favor
an isthmian canal and democrats as we'll
as republicans propose to vote for the rat
ification Of the treaty. The one thing as
sured is that the treaty will! be ratified.
1t may be amended or not. There are
enough republicans who believe as does
Senator German to vote with the demo
Gratis in favor Of S3le amendments. but
they are inclined to follow the advice of
the state department rather than their
own judgment and vote for the treaty
as reported to the senate.

which runs between Potam and TORN on

night, killing all six passengers. Among
them was Hitherto Alvarado, a. wealthy
Mexican who owns number of ranches

afternoon of the tragedy and the circum-
stances gave evidence that they resisted
Their bodies were rif1ed of everything Of
value them. The cover and body Of
the stage were shot full Of holes.
s- 1t is thought by the Guaymas authori-

the bandits who have taken refuge in
the mountains back of the Yaqui river and
were watching for Alvarado Friends Of
the murdered ranch-owner say that he
had little money with him at the time.
