Names Of French warnhlps.

What is curious In the list of
French ships of war now on the stocks
Is that not one of them is called after
a warrior, whether naval or military,
but that the patronymics Of philoso-
pliers, and even Of novelists, have
been preferred
The new ironclaids are named after
Danton Mirabeau, Voltaire, Diderot
Condorcet and Vergnland; the cruis.
ers take the names of Victor Hugo,
Jules Michelet, Edgar Quinet, Ernest
Renan and Waldeck.Rousseau
The most poetical names are those
given to the new submarines. There
are to be two Wasps among them; but
there will also be an Emerald, an
Opal, Ruby, Sapphire, Topaz, a
Turquoise, Circe and Calypso.

REPUBLICANS GET H
 AGONY OVER QUICK

It took the Republicans little over an hour to count the 76 votes cast by their party. They are claiming that l their total would have been larger but for the fact that members of their party voted at the Democratic booth
 Greatest interest among the Repub, licans centered in the efforts that were being made during the day by rival Democratic aspiranIs for office. There were no contests on their side of the house, only one ticket being in the field, from which to select the requir- ed number of delegates.
 It was stated by several Republi- cans after their primaries yesterday that if Dr. C. L. Caven will not take the nomination for Mayor. they may decide to endorse J. NJ. O'Conneli. who will he the Democratic nominee.
 The delegates selected yesterday by the Republicans are as follows:
 First Ward-Sam Verran. Jr.: ". R. Tonkin, C. H. Holz. s. l.. Gilman. John Norton Ed Scott and O. P Hunt
 Second Ward-F. c. Henderson, H. NJ. Woods, William Hughes. F. A. Wit tg. Lewis Hunt. W. H. Perrow and A. E. Lutley.
 Third Ward-W. P. EcNair. F. R. O'Brien, T H WtggiI C. C. Finlay- son, H w. Aiken, R. A. Kirk and P. P. Brewster

It took the primary officials from 6 o'clock to II o'clock to count the ballots. Que of the 416 cast, five were thrown out because being incor rectiy marked.
 The vote was reasonably heavy dur ing the entire day. There was little or no excitement around the voting place. But few who asked the right to vote were questioned.
 As a result of the election, friends of Kelley are claiming that they are not yet defeated. though it is gener- ally conceded that Snodgrass nas cap tured at least two-thirds of them. The delegates elected in each of the three wards were as follows:
 First Ward-L. c. Shattuck, John Hogan. Dave Hassler, Lee Hanley, Charles Stacy. Jack Perry. Nels Ok erstrom, John Twomey, Walter Goslin. John J. Hill. Frank Haines. Clint Moon, T. c. Foster, James Harring- ton and J. F. Johnson.

MT. Bennett is well acquainted with both these players he played with them two years in the Missouri Valley League-and says they are as good as any players who have held the bat over the plate. He stated that they not only were able to play their respective positions with credit. but were good batters. mak- ing some oS the highest records at batting

 That the business men of not only Bisbee. but Lowell as well. are anx- icus to have good baseball team in this camp this year is evidenced from the interest they have demonstrated.

They also contend that 1t will be an attraction where everybody can go. this being something Bisbee heretofore has never had.

UNUSUAL RAIN
 CRUMbLES ADOBES
Buildings That Have Stood 100 Years at BOacaChi
 Are Destroyed

Rain lasting for five days, coming down in torrents night and day, about two weeks ago, destroyed five adobe houses in Boachi. Sonora. which had stood on the banks of the river near that camp for more than 100 years
 George Dunn and H. B. Mccoy, who returned yesterday from trip to Boa. cachi. Arizpe and the Clancy district, where in the former place at the time the incessant downpour caused the buildings to disentegrate and crumble away.
 Each of the buildings was occupied by large Mexican families. They all got out with their household effects before the final crash came that laid their homes. the homes of their fath- CTS. in piles of sticky mud.
 During the entire five days the rain did not let up for more than an hour. Old-timers say that it was the heay- iest rain that has visited that section during their recollection. It was not only steady rain, but at times the water fell intorrents. occasionally re- senbling a cloudburst-
 During the past day some of the Mexican inhabitants feared a second deIrge, and that the world might be coming to an end. A number of them sought higher ground. It vas feared toward the last that if the rain con tinued much longer all the buildings would be washed away.
 Mccoy and Dunn were waterbound at Boacachi for nearly week It YVES impossible for them to cross a raging river that runs past Boacachi. To have attempted to ford the stream would have been taking their lives in their hands
 When Mccoy and Dunn got to Naco oo their way back to Bisbee they were held up. They had exceeded their time limit in which to get back. with their team. and it was necessary to remain until veterinary surgeon sr- rived from Fl Paso to examine their team. While away they have pros pected a large amount of territory. They brought back to the city some excellent samples of gold ore.

LONG DISTANCE
 LINE WITHIN YEAR
COWaR says BiSbGe Will be Able to Talk To Los An.
 QeIeS aEd Denver

Within the next year Bisbee will l be talking over the long-distance teie phone to Los Angeles and Denver . ! is the prediction made yesterday aft ernoon by Superintendent Cowan ot the Bisbee Improvement Company. Cowan states that the Consolidated Telephone and Telegraph Company which a year or so ago secured con trol of the greater part of the tele- phone lines in Arizona. is behind the venture.
 Several overtures have been made by the Consolidated Company to the Bisbee Improvement Company to pool interests, but this proposition has been fatly refused. However. there is possibility of an agreement being reached that will make the two con- panies working partners in long-dis- tance connections.
 The plan of the Consolidated Com pany is to connect it's line at Tucson with the Bisbee line to Benson. This will form a line reaching all the way from Jerome to Douglas, with laterais that practically will bring all the i'm portant cities of the Territory into communication with Bisbee
 Either from Benson along the Southern Pacific through Yuma or from Prescott and along the Santa Fe through Needles connection will be made with Los Angeles. It is under stood that both routes are under con sideration. and either one will shortly be selected.
 To Denver the line FiIi pass through Fl Paso AlbuGr eT9ue and several of the cities of Colorado Surveys of the most feasible route have been made. IL will result In all parts Of Arizona and New Mexico be- ing brought more closely in touch by telephone and quick. suitable con- munication.
 Superintendent Cowan feels certain that the improvement fs sure to come. It appears nov to be nothing more than g. matter of working out some of the details of construction, as well as business arrangements by the Consoli- dated company with independent lines in the Southwest. a
