 "A CARELESS BoY-A boy came very near forfeiting his life to his carelessness yesterday afternoon on Washington street near the corner of Fourth avenue. He was riding west on bicycle, between the rails of the street car track and a car was ap- preaching him from the rear. The motorman rang the bell but he paid no attention to it and as he came closer the motorman yelled to him to get off the track. He supposed, of course. the boy would obey and therefore did not stop the car. But the boy still gave no heed and rolled leisurely along When he got dangerously close the motorman tried to stop the car but it was too late and he struck the young ster's rear wheel in a way that put it out of business. The boy fell and fortunately rolled to one side of the track else he would surely have been killed. As it was both he and the mo- equal to tragedy. The boy said he

 THE CONGRESS BALL CAME The terrible truth must be told that the Crescent base ball team of Phoa- nix, that went to Congress last Sunday came home dragging it's hip. As an- r iy, ican the two teams were well match ed, the Congress boys averaging a lit tie the heavier but both being abou; equal in their knowledge. of the game. As also announced at that time, the Phoenix team at the end of the sev- enth inning seemed to have the game won. or at least so near it they felt the enthusiasm of victory, for the score was to in favor of Phoenix. But baseball game, like a grea: many other enterprises is never q cinch In the eight inning the Con- gress team managed to get in a run making the score six to four. It WIS naturally expected the Phoenix boys would hand them a goose egg for the finish, bu: that is where the rope broke. The Phoenix catcher in the ninth, lost the control of his arm and threw wild ball with the result that the miners rolled in three runs in a bunch and then it was all over: Con- gress |, Phoenix 6. The Crescents said yesterday that they expected to play two more games with the same team. one on the Phoenix grounds and the other on the Congress grounds The next game will probably be played week from next Sunday though inc date has not been definitely decided upon.

WORLDS FAIR FEATURES
The Big Show Described by a Man
 Who Saw It.

Is the worlds fair a success?
 Such is the question asked of every Alizonian who returns from the worlds fair city and to it the same answer can always be giVen-"yes."
 Whether the fair will prove a finan- cial success or not is a quest>5n which only the management of the great ex- position can answer, and they claim that it will be. And the financial out come of the exposition is a matter which does not interest or concern the visitor.
 To the city of St. Louis it will prob ably not prove the boon that it was r!edicted it would, but that again is a matter which does not directly inter- est or concern the Arizonian. The fin ancial outcome of the project, as it con- cerns the fair or the city of St. Louis is a matter for the Missourians to spec ulate upon. That which concerns the Arizonian or the visitor, is the success of the fair as an attraction.
 And there is everything upon the fair grounds to make it a great success as an attraction. There is that which will please everyone, be he foreigner or native, laborer or capitalist. The ex- hibits and kinds of entertainments are so varied and so extensive that there are matters of interest for all, and the completeness of the whole makes the fair beyond the possibility of censure.
 To enter into an extensive description of the many buildings and exhibits would be little less than waste of time and exertion. They have been describ- ed time and time again, in magazines, weekly periodicals and newspapers un- til the reader has grown tired of the everlasting strain. Something of gen eral nature, some suggestions as to the
