 The day at the park will ba thor oughly filed in with interesting and funmaking sport. The steertying and the flag sticking vii no doubt be the best ever seen in Phoenix. There are now nineteen entries. The cowboys are the best in the valley, which means the best in the territory.
 The following is the programme all ready given out:
 a. m.-Firemans races on Wash ington street, between Center and Sec ond streets.
 1O:20 a. m.-Band concert on city hall plaza; baseball game at Eastlake park, Whipple vs. Phoenix.

A COWBOY DANCE
A Hitherto Unannounced Attraction
 at the Park Today.

One of the attractions at E4silske park today, arranged by Manager Gib- son of the cowboy tournament. will be a dance at the pavilion immediately after the steer tying and broncho busting. The dance will continue until o'clock and will be free to all guests. This feature of the day has not been hitherto mentioned and will be one of the most attractive incidents. The cowboys will not have time to change their clothes so that an opportunity will be given to see and take part in a genuine cowboys ball.
 And that greased' pig affair which l.. NJ. HOghe. will donate to the general festivities will be worth going miles to see. It has been announced that the pigs, like the pies ard the pork and many other things a Hoghe's. come from Hoghe's ranch. A creased pig contest is often a disappointment for the reason that the pig gets away and eliminates himself from the struggle. But the greased pigs will not do that today. HOghe will have strong wi; e fence to hold the pigs and at the same time not interfere with their move

THE HUACHUCAS ON FIRE
Brilliant but Alarming Spectacle
 from Tombstone Courthouse

The annual fire is raging in the Huachucas not only laying waste great deal of valuable timber but threatening the water supply of Tomb stone for in the burning area are the two reservoirs from which the town is sup piled with water. One of them is in Miller canyon and the other in Carr canyon about twenty eight miles from Tombstone. The fire was first noticed last Thursday night The Prospector describes it as follows: 1t was as- certained at the Huachuca Water com pany's through the phone at the Mill
 Ter canyon reservoir. that the fire was raging south of Miller canyon, and that Joe Palmerlee. with three men had gone across to see if they could do any good. In the mean time Manager Brearley of the water company had phoned to the commander of the post. Fort Huachuca. urging him to send sol diers to the scene of the fire.
 From the top of the court house tower excellent observations were had of tho fire with a good binocular. It seemed to cover a. large belt near the head of Ash canyon. and was making ugly pro- gress. What appeared to be sparks were HNHlS NlIu. que eNlQentlN to the falling of trees and the flashing of burning wood into the air. If seen at close quarters, the fiery spectacle must have been magnificent, exceeding per- haps in brilliance all-t fireworks that will be burned in Chicago at the ap- proa ching celebration.
 The big fire which is now raging in the Huachucas, was thought to be un- der control this morning, but the wind coming up it is growing worse. NJ Brearley, general manager of the Hua- chuca Water company. who is in com lmunication with the people at the re- servoir by phone states that the moun-
 tain fire has broken out again and Is spreading down towards the Miller can 1 yon reservoir. He has wired the commander at Fort Huachuca request
 Ing him to send troops there. Mean while the company has sent a force of men there to fight the fire"

CONSCIENCE STRICKEN
Phoenix Railway Co. Profits by One
 Mans Repentance.

If anyone doubts the practical va Tue of the Christian religion he is re- spectfully referred to Robert Sher- man, superintendent of the Phoenix City Railway. MT. Sherman is in q position to make affidavit if necessary, that conversion has had very salu- tary effect on at least one man, who was once resident of a village near this city but who has removed to Califor- mia within the last year. His name is withheld that he may receive no un- pleasant nOtoriety, for heis uite well known here and no man should be laughed at just because he is trying to do right.
 MT sherman as manager of the rai.- way company received day or two ago a letter from this man which read as follows:
 Dear Sir: Please find enclosed five cents for riding on your street car, cs stold a ride once last summer. As l have changed my life of living and I have given my heart to God I please ask you to forgive me for it, as small things have to be made right as well as large ones. if we go clear on the Judgment day. Yours truly"
 <AS ilSiildSti OI 1nOenlX park and th 2 park theater MT. Pratt received the same day and from the same party. an- other letter the last part of which was the same as the one above quoted but which commenced as follows:
 Dear Sir: Please find enclosed twenty-five cents for to pay my way in to the East Lake park of July A. 1903. as l got in some other way besides the right way. etc.
 Mr. sherman will answer the letters and extend forgiveness freely and fully. His correspondent is undoubtedly sim cere and is hewing to the line in the matter of self discipline. But no doubt it is fortunate for MT. Sherman that the religious awakening here is not too general for if every Phoenf,, man, woman and child, who has beat en the street car or the park manage ment, should take to writing letters. 1t would take a larger office force to an

morning at 10 o'clock to witness the baseball game Whipple failed to set the world on fire yesterday but there felt sure in overlooking anything and it is quite likely the soldiers will give them much harder contest this morn ing. Yesterdays game was a good one notwithstanding its weak places and the score reveals that the teams arc not unevenly matched. Each is little the stronger in certain features which may be remedied a little now that they are better acquainted. It is understood the visitors have two more pitchers in their team and there may be new man in the box. It is not cer- tain that Loman will be able to play for Phoenix today but if he isn't good game may be expected from Da- wis; even better one than yesterday for he is just getting his hand in. Be side, it will be nice and cool this morn ing and the afternoon sun is respon- sibla. for many bad plays on the Phoe- nix diamond. The Phoenix team $ under considerable expense in provid- ing the amusement and as it is the na- tional game it is entitled to proper re- cognition on the national anniversary. The grand stand is, all shaded and s free to all who come, and there will be no, charge made at the gate for ladies. There will be other things doing at the park and the ball game will be a good appetizer.

BASEBALL VlSITORS-It is a clc- yer and gentlemanly aggregation of fine looking men, who are now visiting Phoenix from Fort Whipple in pursuit of baseball honors. They are mostly members of the Fifth cavalry. They are quartered at the Ford hotel where they are the guests of the Phoenix team. Those comprising the party are: E. w. Mowday J. F. Mulloy, B. Mover, J. Muller, B. E. Eckerle. C. Brown, F. Krick, H. Cyphers, R. Vim cenC, F. Savage, J. Bohleber. c. Baurer l.. D. Campbell. A. R Jell, Geo. Calder and H. G. Calder.
 A YUMA MURDER-There was an- other murder near Yuma last Thurs day the second in the county within week. Eugene Tourtellotte broke q rifle over the head of Pat Devine and then poured a load of shot into his body. The trouble occurred during discussion as to which was the better shot. Both had been drinking. They arseSvell known all over the territory. Devine had considerable money on his person and it is now missing. The coroner's jury held 1'ourtellotte. Other arrests may follow.
 ALMOST MUROER-Some mis- guided Phoenix ratriot almost commit ted murder on Saturday night. He stole a beer keg from Louis MelcZers place and taking it to the corner ot Adams and Second avenue he filled it with dynamite or some other explosive and touched it off. A beer keg is a pretty strong receptacle but it could not stand against such load as had been put in to II. Pieces of the slaves were hurI- ed in every direction and a rain of them fell about a citizen and a little boy who happened to be passing. Frag mcnts of the keg were found a block and a half from the scene of the eX plosiOn. A great hole was torn n the ground and even fence posts in the neighborhood were thrown down This is the kind of patriotism that fills well meaning people with apprehension as the natal day approaches. Those whose relatives are killed or maimed regret that the British did not get the best of it so that there would be noth- ing to celebrate.
