A DENVER VISlTOR-Mrs. Finley
 DufHeld. who with her husband spent
 last winter in Phoenix, arrived yester
 day afternoon on the delayed Santa
 Fe train and expects to spend six
 weeks or two months with her brother in-law, Dr. William Duffield.
 WILL BE HERE SURE-There is
 no doubt of the presence here tonight of White Whittlesey who is billed to appear with his company at the Dor
 ris tonight. There had been an appre-
 hension that on account of the trouble
 at the Gila bridge the company
 might fail to arrive. But it is coming in the other way and yesterday Man ager Berger received a telegram from
 Ash Fork saying that the company had
 arrived there. It will therefore be here
 in time
 WALKING THE BRIDGE-Ten
 passengers arrived here from the south
 yesterday afternoon, walking the Gila
 bridge. It appears that while two or
 three bents have been taken away the
 rails and ties are intact and those who were real anxious to get over here
 were willing to take the chance of
 walking the suspension bridge. It was
 not considered a long chance either for
 even if the structure gave way the
 water had receded at that point so
 there would have been no danger of drowning. The only thing they might have feared was the jolt of fall. There was no train sent out yesterday other than the train which brought these passengers up from the river. Though no announcement has been made to that effect at the company's office it is not unreasonable to expect that a transfer may be made sometime today.
 A FINE STAR-Star sharps for few evenings past have been watching with interest the conduct of a lumin- ous body in the western heavens, about where the evening star ought to be It might be Venus, which is said to he the evening star and probably it is but what casts a doubt over the minds of local observers is that there is an other star close by that shines as bright as Venus ordinarily does. In the absence of the Republicans astro- homer who laid off last night to go to church the only theory that can be ad- vanced is that in this fine growing weather all the stars in this country have increased in magnitude Venus is several sizes larger than she was before and the other star is one of her little messenger boys who was too small to notice before the rains but is now increasing in importance A caU- CT last night suggested that Venus was all right and that the big star was Adonis dressed in his Sunday brilliance.
 MET THEIR MATCH-The Phoe- nix Juniors baseball club got a bunch it was not looking for yesterday after noon, handed in by the Phoenix Mex ican Athletic club at the grounds on Third and Madison streets. When the score card was made out in full it looked something like this: Athletics Il, Juniors 5. The battery for the Athletics was J. Ortega catcher. and J. Lastra pitohef. F. Robinson caught for the Juniors and Graham was in the box. There was no time that the Athletics were not in the lead though the game was well advanced before they had it cinched. The Athletics got two runs in the first inning one in the second and two in each the third. | sixth, seventh and eight. The Juniors started with a goose egg and got one run in each of the next three innings. | and subsequently two more runs. The | game was for ten dollars side so the treasury O. t-c Juniors shows a deficit 1 now that can only be balanced by a 1 ueDII charge 10 experience. The Jun iors are just now getting a view of the seamy side of life. They have been organized nearly year and until re- gently all went well with them but the last two games have demonstrated that it sometimes Hghtens in a clear sky. i But they are not cast down for they realize that somebody must lose and they are as much entitled to drub- ping once in a while as anybody else is. l
