LOOKING FOR cRANKs.
RevoIvers Kept Handy by Treasury
 Department Officials.

A person calling on Assistant -Secre- tary of the Treasury Reynolds the oth- CT day, was somewhat startled by Ob serving the butt end of a pistol pro- jecting from a ledge on the under side of that officials desk. says a Wash ingtOn dispatch to the Brooklyn Eagle He quickly moved his chair around to a, place of safety out of the range of the weapon. Then he called the attention of the amiable assistant secretary to the gun, and demanded to know why his guests were frightened by such warlil1e displays.
 "Oh, that's part of my inheritance from my predecessor, Bob Armstrong" remarked MT. Reynolds, reaching un- der the desk and pulling the pistol out. "I understand it is here for the pur- pose of defending the officials against the dangerous cranks who may drift in and try to hold me up for million or two. So far. I have not been called upon to use it, and as I am poor marksman, l hope I may never be com pelled to draw it."
 It seems that there is a similar weapon located in a handy position in the desk of each prominent official of the treasury. They were put there about ten years ago. at the time Gen eral Coxey marshaled his army of ho- boes and marched on Washington. It was not known what might result from the turning loose of a large amount Of irresponsible men in the national cap ital. Serious fears were entertained that a raid on the federal vaults might be attempted At any rate it was thought best to take a few precautions ! Loaded revolvers were issued to all the watchmen, and the assistant sec | Tetaries were provided with pistols. 4 ] ledge was built at the right hand side , of each desk, out of the sight of the us
 ual observer. and there the pistol was , installed.
 l "I think l shall get a little targe 1 practice by firing at that bust of Ralpf l Waldo Emerson" said MT. Reynolds
 the other day. pointing to a bust If the noted poet on a pedestal at the othe1 end of the office. By the way" con tinued the assistant secretary. 'I won der how that bust happened to find
 place in the treasury department?"

MESA
DOES IT MEAN SUGAR FACTORY?

DOES TT MEAN SUGAR FACTORY?
 Friday morning MT. w. J. Murphy and w. D. FulwiIer of Phoenix. ac- cOmpanied by Col. Herman Osthaus of Scranton, Pa. and K. D. HeIlwrath of Celina, Ohio, paid Mesa visit in the interest of a sugar beet factory. They interviewed a number of citizens rel ative to the tests of growing sugar beets in the valley and especially at Mesa, and they were very much pleas ed with what they saw and heard. Col. OsthaUs and MT. Hellwrath re | gently accompanied MT. Murphy from 1 the east to look up the sugar indus 1 try here with view of building a | sugar factory if conditions were fav- Orable, and naturally MT. Murphy would bring them to Mesa as so many l of the Mormon people are familiar with sugar factories in Utah.
 They were met by w. J. LeBaron. l w. A. Macdonald, J. c. Peterson and | F. T. POmeroy, who answered ques- | tions concerning the test made by J. Johnson here some time ago. and also | the success that attended the estab- 1 lishment of factories in Utah and Idaho. It was explained that accord ing to MT. Johnson. who superintenI- ed the beet tests here, that they were most satisfactory. The tonnage was larger than in Utah county and the saccharine matter was about the same The only question according to MT Johnson, was the water supply, but now with the reservoir assured and building. that question is settled and this valley asks no odds of any coun . try for beet culture. A great advan- tage was made clear over any other country and that was that the beats
 here could remain in the soil longer without damage than at any other place where beets are grown Beets Ihave grown here two seasons without
 decaying. Col Osthaus desired tC
 know what had been the effect Upor

 factory in Utah county. MT. LeB5r- on, who visited there ten years aftel the factory had been established, anC who had lived there for years before

HORSE RACE.

Mesa had a horse race yesterday. not the kind that st!rs the soul but an old fashioned race where one horse makes the race. The race was match ed between Maroni Holidays blue mare and an old rawboned sorreI mare from Hilbert Bros. stable, for $165 side. A large crowd assembled but 1t was not long until it leaked out that the Passey mare had d rec ord of 2:12 and there was not much betting going on, as no one thought Holiday had a ghost of show. Burt Wingar and Lee Brizzee were the judges at the outcome and Farley started them off. After scoring for a number of times start was made and the Passey mare broke but soon got down to business and walked right away from the other. beating in the race by 100 feet.
