ARRANGEMENTS ARE MADE F0R
 SHRINKING
Street Committee of City Coun- cil Arrange Details for Lay ing the Dust on the Streets of the City.

Definite steps have been taken in the matter of arranging for the sprinkling of the city streets. and it will be matter of very short time when the dust nuisance. which has been the cause of great annoyance for some time past. will be done away with.
 At the last meeting oe the city council arrangements were made for team of horses from Ed. Scott, who formerly conducted the sprinklins business as Il private enterprise. At that time MT Scott offered to rent his outfit to the city at rental of $30 per month. The proposition was fav- orably received by the council, and the matter referred to the street commit tee to use their own judgment in the matter. The street committee, com posed of Counci,men Allen. Morris and Devine. took the matter up at once and decided to accept Mir. Scott's proposition.
 The next matter was that of obtain ing supply of water. and the com mittee called on MT. Douglas. mana ger of the Cooper Queen company, to see what arrangements could be made in regard to furnishing the city with water sufficient for sprinkling pur- poses. Mir. Douglas told the commit tee that they could use all of the water from the Czar shaft that they needed.
 At the present time the water is be- ing run through the precipitating plant and then through pipes to the sewer tank, which is located at the lower end of the slag dump. The committee decided to build a pipe line across the old slag bridge, con ducting part of the water to the tank which is situated on Naco road. where the sprinkling cart will be easily load ej. The remaining portion of the water will be allowed to run down to the sewer tank. and a place will be fixed there so that sprinkling cart can be conveniently filed
 The committees idea in having two loading places is for the purpose of making it an easy haul on the teams. cart can be loaded at the sewer tank, and when it is desired to sprinkle the streets in the heart of the city, the cart can be loaded at the water tank on Naco road. The city fathers have decided to work two shifts in the sprinkling department. one during the day, and one at night Tn this way the sprinkler will have time to cover all portions of the city. The necessary pipe has been ordered and the streets will be we'll sprinkled within a short time.

MANY CASES 0F TYPHOID DUE
 ID WELLS
Dr. Shine Says That Majority of Typhoid Cases at Copper Queen Hospital Caused by Impure Water in Wells.

Although many of the conditions which have been responsible for the recurrence of great many cases of typhoid fever in the city each year have been eradicated. still there are some which have not been given any attention whatever, and until some thing is done in regard to these matters. typhoid fever can not be erad- icated.
 Among the remaining allies of the typhoid germ there is probably not one which is near as responsible for the recurrence of the disease as the wells which are used in Upper Tomb stone canyon. Many of these wells are situated in places where they are in the line of natural drainage from residences on the hills above them, and they can not help but be the col lecting place for the typhoid germs which are cast off by decomposing filth. It has been noticed within the past few weeks that a great number of the patients who have been taken to the hospitals suffering from the fever were residents of Tombstone Canyon. and Dr. Shine. chief surgeon i for the Copper Queen Company, was asked if it was not possible that the wells were the cause of the prevalence of the disease in that locality. In re- plying to the question, Dr. Shine said: There is not the slightest doubt hut that a great many wells in Upper Tombstone Canyon, and other places around the city, are infested with mil lions and millions of typhoid germs. and consequently that the people who use the water from these wells are l subject to the disease. l have notic- ed that great many of the patients l who have been taken to the Coppepr Queen hospital, in fact, a majority of | the typhoid cases, were residents of Tombstone Canyon, and this supports
 the theory that the wells are the
 cause of the. disease in that locality. l have had occasion to notice the loca- ton of some of the wells. and in many cases I found that the filth from the
 stables and outhouses was drained
 right into the places from which resi-
 dents drew their drinking water. Until
 this condition is improved. I can as-
 sure these people. I think, that they
 are imbibing typhoid fever germs
 with every drink of water they take. This is a condition which should not
 exist in the city, since it would not be
 a hardship on any of these people to
 have water mains connected with their
 houses. and thus obtain supply of good water"

DISPLAYS KNOWLEDGE OF
 THINGS
Convinces Chief Justice Kent That He Knows Enough to Have a Voice in Government of the United States.

Some of the members of the Twenty third legislature would have felt deep ly grieved if they had been present in the district court at Tombstone on Monday when Judge Kent was exam ming an Italian who applied for cit- izenship papers.
 The Italian had evidently been we'll cation for a voice in the government of the United States. for he ap- preached the bar with absolute con- fidence The Court propounded the usual questions as to who discovered America; when was the declaration of independence written; how is the president of the United States elected, etc., and the applicant answered with the utmost alacrity. and always cor rectly. The Court was well pleased with the examination of the Italian and was about to pass him when he thought of another question. He asked the prospective citizen: Who makes the laws for the Territory of Ari- zona?"
 The son of Italy stammered for a minute, and then a knowing smile crossed his face as he answered: "The Public Examiner" His Honor could not help smiling his approval of the deep insight which the foreigner dis played in regard to the government oi the Territory. and ordered the cleri of the court to enroll the name of thS applicant among the sons of Uncle Sam.
 It has been charged that certain county officials coached the Italian before he appeared in court.

AUTO ACCIDENT
Electric Car and Auto Crash Together With Serious
 Results.

OAKLAND, Sept. 26.-A large auto mobile, driven by Carlton Wall, an Alameda capitalist, co;lided with an electric car shortly before 6 o'clock tonight at the corner of East Sixteenth street and ninth avenue.
 In the automobile were Mir. Wall, Mrs. G. R. French, the chauffeur, State Senator Lukens. Judge Harry A. Mel win, Grand Exalted Ruler of the Bene- voIent Protective Order of Eiks of the United States. and Mrs. Melvin. The collision was a terrific one.
 Mrs. Melvin was thrown on a picket fence and probably fatally injured. Judge Melvin was thrown on he ce- ment pavement and painfully injured. State Senator Lukens was also thrown out and badly injured Wall and the chauffeur escaped with few scratches.
 Waii was driving the auto at fast clip down Ninth Avenue when he plunged head-on into the front part cf fast speeding electric car going up Sixteenth street The collision threw the automobile twenty feet into the butter, but 1t did not tip over. No one or the street car was injured.

 In the era recommended for exclus- ion there is no timber of value. The forest. growth is of inferior pinon and mountain mahogany. The region is entirely without water, so that it is impossible to keep a patrol or to main tain range headquarters. Yet it con- tains the main highway to enther side of the range. By it's exclusion from the reserve, stock may be crossed at will, without any restrictions upon those who are compelled to use this highway, who would be under consid- erable inconvenience and difficulty in visiting forest officers for permits.
 As the reserve now stands its era is 2,267 900 acres.

BURNS AND FLYNN
 WILL MEET OCTOBER 2

LOS ANGELES, Sept 26.-Tommy Burns, holder of the title. and Jim Flynn, the Colorado fireman who has been fighting his way to the top. meet for the heavyweight championship be- fore the Pacific Athletic Club on the evening of October ?. Interest in the event has been increasing daily, the showing made by Flynn while in train ing exceeding the anticipations of his fondest admirers.
 While many have not regarded Burns claims to the heavyweight title seriously, the fact remains that his defeat of Marvin Hart. after the lat ter had beaten Jack Root. to whom the title had been passed by Jim Jeff ries upon his retirement, gave him more right than any other aspirant to calm the heavyweight honors. More over, whatever his ability may be in ,he pugilistic line, the fact remains that Burns has never refused to meet any one desirous of trying the issue with him, but on the contrary, he has had all kinds of trouble to get match with any of the half dozen heavy weights who have championship aspi- rations.
 In Jim Flynn. Burns will meet a man who thought but little known outside of his own state. has proved one of the toughest customers in the game, and is never beaten until count ed out. Essentially fighter, Flynn is on top of his man all the time, and Burns footwork will avail him L,it little, even If he were disposed to use it against Hymns style of fighting.
 From Burns side 1t is stated that he will make no attempt to avoid his opponent. but that following the tactics pursued by that superlatiyely clever little man, Abe Attell, in his fight with Frankie Neil, he will slug it out at close quarters with his husky oppon- ent. ,5e
 Both men are in as good condition as could be desired by their respective supporters a week before the encounl- CT. Burns has really been in training for nearly two months. expecting a match with Al Kaufman to come off nearly a month ago. and all he had to do was to keep right on in his work when the elusive San Franciscan fail ed to materisiize.

CIRCUS WILL PITCH
 TENT NEXT WEDNESDAY.
EVENT WILL BE ONE OF MORE l THAN PASSING INTEREST TO l THE SMALL BOY.

The Forepaugh-Sells circus will give two exhibitions here next Wednesday, afternoon at o'clock, and evening at IS. The event is of more than pass ing interest to this community. It is the day the small boy has been wait ing for, the circus posters have had him hypnotized ever since they were pasted on the bill-boards. Now the day draws near, and, of course, papa and mama must go to take care of the children and incidentally recall mo ments of their own childhood.
 It wasn't so very long ago that a circus with one ring was thought by old heads-then young heads, by the way-to be a pretty big affair. The one-ring show was changed to two rings, with larger circumference of canvas. Later the series of circus circles were increased to three, and then big platform was added.
 But with the speed of the America D nation this was not enough, and the h'rpodrome races. which gave 3. bru- .al spice to old Roman days, was :ed ed. The evolution of the circus T this way has reached It's highest .'s.e.- opment and greatest success un lsr the directing management of tn. Forepaugh-Sells shows.
 They have now a show of co.ossai size as asdILst what history records CT the average man is familiar with. When they strike their. tents in a siy- Cn place instantly village arises a.t1 a thousand or more souls, ca | c: whom has definite duty, and lends to the systematic effect of the glori- ous whole. And their sheltering roof of canvas by the exact rules of meas urement represents thousands of yards and affords not only tempo rary home for these many people, but for five hundred or more horses, each of which has a distinct office in the fulfillment of a show-making scene that has lifted the name of Porepaugh- ] Sells Shows to high place of honor.
