NORMAL -- VARSITY
Third Annual Debate at
 Tempe Tonight
The History of These Forensic Con- tests-This Will be More Interesting Than Its Predecessors.

The third annual debate between the University of Arizona and the Tempe Normal school will take place in the Normal auditorium at Tempe this ev- ering at o'clock. This is one of the most interesting events of the school year at the Normal. The enthusiasm of the Normalites is at a high pitch and they and their friends are anxiously awaiting the outcome of this years contest.
 It will be remembered that the first of these debates occurred at Tempe in the spring of.1902. On this occasion the University was represented by Judge" Hollingshead, Moses Blumenkranz and Leslie Gillett. The Normal team con- sisted of Harry Trusler, Grace Go1win and Florence Ford. That year the Nor mai distinguished itself by winning the contest and also the handsome gold medal offered by Dr. Moeur. of Tempe, for the highest individual average. This medal was won by MT. Trusler, who is now pursuing a law course at Ann Ar bor.
 Last year the debate, according to rule, was held at Tucson. The UniVer- city selected as it's debaters John w. Gebb. Alfred SeitZ and William b. Whipple. The Normal sent Lynn Laney, Charles Alexander and Miss Jamie IT, vine. The contest was very close and resulted in a partial victory for each team, the University winning the debate and MT. Lancy of the Normal, captur- ing the Moeur medal.
Arizona republican., 1904-05-13

This year the University will bring tC l Tempe Charles Alexander, Miss Martha Wilson and John w. Gebb. The. Nor nal standard will be defended by three young women, Miss Louise Lynd Miss Mabel Goldsworthy and Miss MauGe | Wilson.
 The contest promises to be an excit- 1 ing one, as the teams are both excep- i tionally strong. MT. Alexander and MT. Gebb are veterans of last years contest and will undoubtedly give a good account of themselves. The Normal students are enthusiastic ally backing their team and it is diff ficult to predict the outcome of the con- test.
 These debates are conducted in a manner which is designed to be as thoroughly impartial as possible. Thought and delivery are accorded equal weight. The judges of thought have been appointed, to whom were sent the papers of all contestants, type written in a similar style and bearing no designation but the number assigned by the secretary, who is disinterested party. The grades of tEe judges of thought have been returned in sealed envelopes, which will not be opened until the evening of the debate.
 Three judges of delivery have teen chosen, who will be present at the de- bate and grade the contestants on voice, gesture and presence. The con- testant having the highest average of all grades will be awarded the gold medal, to become his or her permanent property. The team having the highest average will be declared the winner of the debate.
 The question for debate this evening is one of general interest: Resolved, , That the English parliamentary sys- tenn better represents the current thought of the people than does the American congress"
 The Normal will uphold the affirma- tive and the University the negative side.
 These contests have done a deal of good in Stimulating the work Tn English and elocution in both institutions and the idea is well worthy the support ot the friends of both schools. The deb1te itself will be of interest to every cltl- zen as the result of careful study CT a live question. Those who attend will find the evening well spent. It is to be honed that the friends and former stu dents of both schools from Tempe, Me sa and Phoenix will make it a point to be present to cheer and encourage their respective teams.
 The proceeds of the sale of tickets will be devoted to defraying the expen- ses of the visiting team, and other ne cessary expenses. A special train via the Santa Fe will leave Phoenix for Tempe at p. m., Phoenix time, ana returning will leave Tempe at 1O:SO- Round trip twenty-five cents; admis- sion to debate fifty cents.

WINDING UP BUSINESS
The Richmond-Day Company Pre-
 pares to Retire.

The Richmond-Day company, which has been engaged in the furniture trade at 23 East Washington street for mora than four years, has decided to retire from business and yesterday as the first step in liquidation turned its af- fairs over to a trustee in order that all bills and accounts payable and receiv- able. may be settled speedily. The trus tee is J. F. Hurlburt, a young man of Jefferson, Ohio, who has spent the winter in the city.
 It was stated yesterday by Mir Rich mond, of the firm, that the corporation has been contemplating this step fer some time and was further influenced to take it by the dull business which has been done during the drouth. The trustee will as rapidly as possible close out the business unless the Richmond Day people should change their minds in the meantime.
 The trustee is a gentleman of a great deal of business experience. His home is at Jefferson, Ohio, where he has been engaged in the banking business for thirteen years.
 Probabilities of the firm including bills payable and open accounts. are S16,S91.3i. The assets considerably ex- ceed that sum. At the annual stock taking last November the inventory was something more than $17,OOO, and the book accounts believed to be col fectible amounted to S50Oc Mir. Rich rnond believes that the stock is worth now about 5,OOO and that the book ac- counts will amount to 5000. practically all of which can be collected. The stock is new and there is little doubt that under the management of the trustee it will bring at least the inventory
