At last race-goers have something to

that next yea a new man will be In

and good news. But why wait until
next year? Why not induce Judge Muir

WILL PLANT cANTALoUPEs.
A. J. Hansen Is Planning to Put in 300
 Acres This Year.

4. J. Hansen was in from Kyrene and the Gila river yesterday and has something of interest to say of each place. At Kyrene he expects to start all the teams he can get by Monday at work blowing preparatory to putting in between 200 and 300 acres of can taloupes. He expects to get them all in by the last of this month so they will have an early start.
 At the Gila MT. Hansen says things are ar a standstin. The last report of the condition of the bridge was that there were ninenteen bents out or par tially so and nothing towards repairing the damage could be done until the river subsided some. There was no telling when that would be. Mir. Han sen has lost three boats down the stream and with the last one went the cable he used in crossing. Hence not from choice but from necessity he has gone out of the ferrying business for the present at least.
 He relates the experience of a man who crossed on the suspension bridge formed by the ties yet hanging to the rails yesterday. When about half way across the man who was a little worse for drink, stepped on tie that would not hold his weight and he was precipitated into the water below. to- gether with his suit case. Happily d man was standing near with a rope and the unfortunate man was dragged to the bridge again. As soon as he could get his breath he remarked that while he didn't mind the wetting nor the loss of his suit case, he did re- gret losing a flask of whisky which he had in his pocket. He was a long way from town either way and that was all he had.
