The Sacaton farm dates from Feb ruary last, when the first blowing was done and the first water applied to land that had not been wet for years except for occasional showers. To- day it is one of the finest farms in the country. Field after field of wheat, sorghum, alfalfa, young fruit trees rise from the desert. All kinds of vegetables have been raised in abund- ance to supply the children's table. The cold storage is full of water melons and the cantaloupes were pro- nounced by the commissioner to be better than the Rocky Fords."
 Hay has been raised to supply the school and agency stock for the next fiscal year and up to the present date Ouly 22) $1,00O worth of hay has been sold from the first and second cutting.
 The commissioner arrived at Saca- ton on ration day and was surprised to see how fat were the Starving Pimas." Everybody was strong enough to shoulder and carry away a sack of wheat. There is not nor has been for the past two years, any starvation on the reservation.
 The Indian office provides for the sick and infirm. Any needy Indian to the office at Sacaton IS given chance to work. 15O men are working on the Tonto road and 100 on the Prescott and Eastern road.

BASEBALL NEXT SUNDAY
Game Is Arranged Between the Fire
 men and Phoenix Team.

Manager Walden of the Phoenix baseball team said yesterday Shat the report that the Phoenix team would play in Tucson again on the 3Oth and 3lst was not well founded. He said that he had been telcphoned to by the Tucson team respecting the matter but could not get away very well, espe- cially on such short notice.
 The fact of the matter is that it is Tucson's turn to come to Phoenix and yet the Phoenix players are slow 60 ask them just at this season of the year for the reason that it would in volve considerable expense and there are hardly people enough in the city now to insure an attendance that would make d game self supporting.
 The Phoenix Girls" though are all right and 1t is to be hoped that Tue son will not lose her interest in the sport till a fitting time comes for an other contest. The Grays proved themselves hard losers but they will feel worse about 1t after the ladies' punish them again.
 The Phoenix team has arranged q game with the Bremen for next Sun day afternoon and 1t ought to prove a good one. The hremen have some good players among them and they ought 70 put UT q good game even if they don't win it. Phoenix now has baseball 1teams to burn but from them all there ought to be de- veloped enough good timber for at least two canable hines.

WATER POURED
OFF KAhOOlAWt

The officers Of the steamer Mauna
Loa report that the island of Kahoo-
lave seems to be flooded by heavy
rains. Yesterday, when the Mauna Loa
passed the island, while on her way
from Kailua to Maalaea, 1t was noticed
that vast masses Of water were pour
ing off the island into the sea.
Captain Simerson, who has sailed in
these waters for over thirty years. re-
ports that never before has he seen a
similar occurrence off Kahoolawe. The
soil Of the island consists principally
Of red dirt, which soon cakes and
forms a clay. This prevents the rain
from seeping into the ground and as a
consequence most Of the water pours
right of into the sea. The officers Of
the Mauna Loa are Of the opinion that
Kahoolawe must have been visited by
tremendous rains.

Korea Beef Cargo
Was Not C0ntraband

1t Is stated that the p. NJ. steamer
"Koreas' cargo Of provisions, shipped
at San Francisco for Port Arthur, is
now lying at Nagasaki, and II any at
tempt Is made to remove II to its des-
tination It will be treated as contra
hand Of war.
The cargo consists Of 1920 casks Of
beef, each containing so lbs, and TO-
$50 casks, each containing 8 lbs, con-
signed to q firm In Port Arthur by the
Cudahy Packing Company Of Chicago
1t Is stated that a broker who came
across the Pacific in charge OF the cargo
paid duty to the japanese Customs of
yen 100000. According to the state
ment Of the Superintendent of Customs
at Nagasaki, the cargo will only be-
come contraband Of war II shipped to
the enemy's country. The owners are
therefore free to dispose OF 1t or re-
ship 1t to America, and for this reason
the Prize Court has not taken meas
ures for the seizure Of the cargo. It
Is considered probable that the provi-
sions will be returned, us the ware.
housing of the goods involves a large
expenditure
Messrs. Holme, Ringer & Co., are the
agents for the cargo, and applied to
have the provisions entered by the
customs. The fact that war had not
broken out when the cargo was shipped
at San Francisco has saved the provi-
sions from being connscated as contra
band.-Kobe Chronicle.

RUSSIAN Story Of
FIRST ATTACK
On PORT ARTHUR

st. Petersburg. March 5.-A letter
from an officer Of the Russian cruiser
Pallada has been received here des-
cribing the first attack by the Japan
csc upon Port Arthur. The writer de-
mics the story that the oficers Of the
Russian feet were ashore and confirms
the statement that the japanese made
use of false lights. He asserts that at
II o'clock at night a practice drill to
repel torpedo attack was executed
and that toward midnight four Russian
torpedo boats, which simulated the en-
envy, headed back toward Dalny, from
which place they had come. The
crews OF the feet had retired, only the
watch remaining on deck. The ships
were In the outer harbor and the cap
tain OF the Pallada, which vessel occu-
pied the advance position, had descend
ed from the bridge for last look
around before going below, when he
perceived lights advancing. The ships
lights shown were white above red
being those of the Russian warships
when they enter the harbor. The cap
tain Of the Pallada supposed the APP
preaching vessels were the Russian tor
redo boats returning from Dalny and
his suspicious were only aroused when
upon drawing nearer they covered and
uncovered their lights at irregular in
tervals. The signal tower signalled
that the lights were not understood.
At this moment the Pallada's cap
tain, through the thick night. made
out the outlines of the torpedo boat
destroyers' smokestacks In pairs,
amidships. AS the stacks Of the Rus
sian destroyers are in line fore and aft,
the crews of the Russian ships were
instantly called to quarters.
In less than three minutes the Pal
lada's men were at their posts, orders
were given that the guns be charged
with grape and fierce fire was opened
on the on-coming Japanese. The bat
tleships Cesaryitch and Retvizan,
which were In the first line, short
distance astern OF the Pallada, also
opened fire almost Immediately. A ter
rife explosion occurred under the hull
OF the Pallada. raising a torrent Of
water which submerged the cruisers
deck, but did not stop her firing or
maneuverlng, which now. however,
were complicated by the measures TAX
en- to close breach amidships, below

FIREMEN MEAN TO
GET MORE PAY
Will Get Signatures to Petition for
Special Election if Necessary.

Al lengthy communication was re-
ceived last evening. by the board OF
fire commissioners from James R..
Hickey, who is acting as the attorney
of the firemen in the latter's efforts
to secure an increase in their salaries.
Mr.. Hickey desired information as to
whether the charter commissioners
would submit the amendment increas-e
ing the funds Of the fire commission
ers at the spring election. If not, he
announced that he proposes to proceed
to secure the necessary number of
signatures to petition requiring the
city council to call a special election
for the submission of the proposed
amendments. The secretary Of the.
board was instructed to refer Mr..
Hickey to the charter commissioners.
The firenen prefer that the amend
ment to the charter be passed upon at
a special election, their reason for this
being obvious when the provisions of
the law are considered. 1t Is required
that all amendments to the charter
shall receive three-fifths of the vote
cast. At a general city election many
voters would neglect to exercise their
prlA ilege to vote on the charter amend
ments, and therefore they would really
in effect be counted as voting against
the charter.
