 5, 10 AND 20 ACRE TRACTS. of land near enough to the business center of Phoenix so that a man could do business in the city and live on small place in the country. Having this in view I have purchased 80 acres lying 3-4 mile west of the fair ground on the Christy road. The ground lays just right for subdividing into 5, 10 and 20 acre tracts and each tract fronting on the Christy coun- ty roads. The soil is of the richest alluvial and of the best straw berry land in the valley. With the land there is a water right in the Mar icopa canal and an independent lateral belonging exclusively to this tract of land, all the way from the canal to the land. am going to put this tract on the market at $100 to $125 per acre for a short time. This is far below the value of land in this immediate vicinity and I am justified in saying that the surroundings are of the best in the valley. It also has the proximity of the street car to Phoenix. If you want something that will double in value in year or two. Here is your chance.

IMPROVEMENTS
ARE To Be MADE
Steam Heating Plant May Be
Installed in Coliseum and
Alley Cemented.
SKATING WAS PROSPEROUS
FIGURES ON ATTENDANCE At
COLISEUM DURING PAST WIN.
TER WILL RUN INTO TEN
THOUSANDS.

The best business in the history of
the Coliseum is the record for the
skating season, which came to an end
Saturday night. In short time the al
ley just south of the Coliseum will
be cemented, the roof of the building
painted and, probably a steam heat
ing plant be installed. President NJ. c..
Henley states that notwithstanding
these expenditures a nice dividend
will no doubt be declared at the an
nual meeting of the stockholders in
the Richmond Athletic Association,
the first part of next month.
1t is not yet known what the total
paid admission to the rink the past
season were. but the figures will run
up into the ten thousands. The attend
ance was not large as when polo was
played here. but large enough to war
rant roller skating at the Coliseum
next season. 1t has been rumored that
polo will be introduced in this city
again next winter, but nothing def
mite has yet been decided on. IT is
probable that polo will not be seen in
Richmond until the winter of 1907 ,OS.

THE NATIONAL s RECORD
REMNANT WINNING TEAMS.
List of the Clubs that Have Won
Honors in The Organization in
Thirty Years-cther Sporting Cos
sip.

New York, April 9.-With the begin
ming of the National and American
League pennant seasons this week
ing previous races in the two big
leagues are timely. The race of 1906
will be the thirty-seventh annual tussle
of the National League and the sew
enth annual campaign of the young
err organization, which organization
though sound and lusty, is but an in
FAINT in years compared to the Nat
ional.
Since it's inception in 1876 there
have been thirty-two cities to hold
membership at one time or another in
the National League. Chicago and
Boston were charter members of the
National League and are the only two
that have held membership contin-
uously since 1876. They have been in
every National League race and be-
tween them have won almost as many
pennants as all the other cities put
together. The Bostons in thirty-two
years have won eight pennants. They
have never finished last. The Chica-
COS have won six pennants and finish
ed last bu. once. That once was in
1877, wfea there were only five clubs
in the National League.
The Pennant Winners.
81 The pennant winning teams in the
thirty-two years of the National
Leagues life. have been: Chicago,
six times; Boston, eight times; Prov
idence, twice; Detroit, once; Pittsburg,
three times; Brooklyn, three times;
Baltimore, three times, and New York,
four times. 1t has fallen to the lot of
the following cities to finish last in
the National League: Chicago, once;
st. Louis, four times; Louisville, three
times: Philadelphia. twice; Cincinnati,
three times: Indianapolis, once; Mil
waukee, once; Cleveland, once; Troy.
once; Worcester, twice; detroit, once;
Washington, four times; Pittsburg.
twice: Brooklyn, once; Baltimore,
once and New York, twice.
Washington is the champion BOBBY
prize winner. Not only has that city
finished last four times in the National
League without having won a pennant
but it has won the cellar champion
ship of the American League twice.
st. Louis presses the city of Magnifi-
cent Distances closely for rear end
honors. The Mound City has been
last four times in the National League
and once in the American without
having won a pennant in either. 1t
was in the old American Association
that st. Louis used to shine.

But still he done the best he could
And wasn't anybody's fool.
He didn't know that two times two

But still he had a heap of sense
And always knew where he was at.
He were so full of good advice
1t almost stuck out through his ears.
And you could safely take 1t too;
He never gave you no wrong steers.
He seen. you might say. at a glance
The very thing that should be did,
And there was never no complaint
When people done the thing he bid.
He'd tell them when to sell their hogs.
He'd tell them when to cut their oats,
And in the fall, as like as not.
He'd tell them how to cast their votes.
He wouldn't never take no pay:
He only done it to be kind.
To see the people get along
And sort of help to lead the blind.
Which shows it amt all in the books.
That there are some few tricks outside,
And so IL you can read and spell
You needn't be pulled UP with pride.
And, though you went to public school,
Don't never of your learning boast,
For some men have a kindly heart
Who don't know grammar from a post.

HEARD AROUND
THE CORRIDORS
MERRY EVENING ENJOYED
BY THE MEDICAL MEN
BY THE EAVEsDRGPPER

The medicos of Southern California
have had complete possession of the
Angelus hotel for two days and last
night they brought the crowning touch
to their reign.
1t is an old saying that a doctor
never takes his own medicine and the
physicians of the Southern California
Medical society certainly refrained
from following out their own pre-
scribed courses of diet last night. The
largest banquet in the history of the
association wound up the thirty
seventh annual convention. The doc
tors were even dangerously daring in
their disregard of medical rules.
The menu was made up of prescrip-
tions, but they read "oysters on the
nalf she'll" etc. and the committee
even went so far as to quote at the
beginning, Lay on, Macduff, and down
with him who first cries, Hold!
Enough!'" This without even a
thought of what the immortal Shakes
peare might say could he but see how
his lines were being applied.
This preceded the service of the
menu, but before the toasts there was
an even more heartrending cry, also
from Shakespeare: "Oh, ye gods Ye
gods! Must 1 endure all this!"
The POSTMASTER was a merry one and
the toasters, without administering an
anesthetic, succeeded in saying their
SAY" without causing any unbearable
pain to any 1t was a brilliant ban
quet and proved that the medicos and
their honored guests do not take all
of life seriously, themselves included.
DIR. Woods Hutchinson was the
toastmaster, and the retiring president,
DR.. Hoell Tyler, made the first toast.
Rev. Burt Estes Howard had some
thing to say about "The Pulpit" and
men in other walks of life had an in
ming, though all were strictly forbid
den to talk shop. Joseph Scott spoke
for "The Law" and Commerce" was
the subject of a toast by George H
| Stewart. DIR. Walter Lindley spoke
of 1.-THE Doctor and DIR. James p,
Boothe had some words for THE Pa
tient," reminiscent of the verse:
''Who is my hope and my despair;
Who keeps my body in repair
| And takes the cash / can't we'll spare? p
For 1.-The Press" spoke John Nc
! Groarty. DR.. j. j. Choate had to dc
honor to 1.-THE Ladies" and all who
know the doctor know it was not a
difficult task for. according to DR.
Choate, and incidentally, Robert Burns

Arrangements for the banquet were
in charge of Dr. Thomas J. Mccoy

overhauling. Rumors have been rife
Tor some time that the president was
convinced a very decided change in
the business methods in that depart
ment was necessary, and it has long
been found that the Keep commits
sion found the methods not only an
tiquated but in many cases wholly
inadequate, and so reported to the
president. Especially was this the
case in the general land office, and
the commission insisted in it's report
that a complete change in business
Should be promptly made. This may
or may not have been the cause of
the sudden determination of Secre-
tary Hitchcock to resign, for neither
the secretary nor the president will
say anything about it, but it has be-
come known that the resignation of
Mr.. Richards, commissioner of the
land office, was asked for. His high
personal regard for Mr.. Garfield was
not the only thing that operated on
the mind of the president when he Sc
lected the young Ohioan as the COM
ing head of the interior department
Mr.. Garfield has established a. repu-
tation for activity and energy and we'll
balanced judgment and his selection
may be looked upon as being in the
interest of furthering the presidents S
that department and secure more
speedy work.
1t has been announced that Mr.. Gar
field expects to completely overhaul the
department at the very earliest prac-
tical moment. To that end he is thor
roughly studying the report and recon-
mendations of the Keep commission
The main trouble appears to have been
in the land office. although there has
been some friction and some complaint
about the patent office. Since Mr..
Warner took hold of the pension bureau
complaints against the methods there
have entirely ceased. For many years
that bureau was scene of contention,
and 1t has been the political death of
more than one person who sought to
direct its affairs. Mr.. Warner has in
troduced new methods, infused new en-
ergy into the workings of the bureau
In the midst of his proposed reforms 1t
is to be hoped Mr. Garfield will continue
the active hostility to the land -grabbers
begun by Secretary Hitchcock.

cation of the relations of certain roads

KNAPP DEFENDS HITCHCOCK
Commissions Report Will Soon Be
Ready for Congress

BY Associated Press.
WASHINGTON Dec. 6.-The inter-
state commerce commission, which was
authorized by the Tillman-G Gillespie
resolution to investigate the relation of
railroads with the business of trans
portation, mining and handling coal,
will soon prepare its report for sub
mission to the present session of con-
gress.
In an interview tonight Chairman
Knapp of the commission said:
ITO what extent, If at all, the testi-
rnony involves in any way members
of the senate or public officials 1 cam
not say, as 1 have not had an opptr-
tunity to read it all, but my belief is
that senators and public officials are
not implicated to any such extent as
indicated in a publication today"
Mr.. Knapp said there was no fric-
tion between the commission and the
interior department and added
IF any criticism or disapproval has
come from that source it has been
confined to subordinates who spoke
without the sanction of the head of
the department.
II want to say most emphatically
for Secretary Hitchcock that, so far
from indicating the slightest disap-
proval of the action of the commits
sion, he has given it his earnest COM
mendation. He stated that any en-
ploye of his department was at our
service and even suggested one or two
men who might be of assistance to us.
He furnished the commission with sew
eral documents which were of great
assistance to Commissioner Clark in
conducting his Investigations at Salt

DENIES SAN PEDRO RuMoR
Sehwerin Says Pacific Mail Steamers
Will Not Stop There
BY Associated Press.


SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. .6.-GeneraI
Manager Schwerin of the Pacific Mail
Steamship company made absolute de-
NAL of the report emanating from Los
Angeles to the effect that San Pedro
Would be made a port of call for the
Pacific Mail steamers and eventually a
trans-Pacific terminal for boats of the
service.
According TO the dispatch sent to Los
Angeles from San Pedro, the Southern
Pacific agents at San Pedro had an
nounced the establishment there of a
new Pacific water port.
When the dispatch was read to him
Schwerin said:
1T never heard of this thing before.
There is no truth in it. We have all
we can attend to here at San Fran
cisco. There is no prospect of such an
arrangement being made
