Manager Burnside gave each new
girl his personal attention. In rapil
fire he shot out the questions ''Evel

Among the girls who were willing
to admit that they were new were
chic girls, fat girls land girls who
looked as II they had come straight
from the farm. There were blondes
whose golden hair was almost white,

Burnside's assistants hurried around

H. +. Tay or. a western wrestling

John Middesky, an Indian mountain
of flesh and muscle. who defies anyone
In the world to throw him. What the
Indian is after is a match with JET

strongest man alive. Taylor offers a
wager of $4,000 that his charge will
throw Jeffries or any mat champion
alive.
The dimensions of this Indian are
something marvellous lie is feet 6
inches tall and weighs $50 pounds.
His chest measure is 60 inches; his
waist takes girth OF 81 inches; his
thigh is 80 inches around; his calf. 2S
inches; biceps. 22 inches. and neck
20 lnchs.

appearance In Los Angeles. He came
from Bisbee. Ariz.. where Sid Varney,
favorlte and former champion wrest-
Ter of the southwest. was as child in
the hands of this big Cocopah when
they met on the mat.
This Indian has managed to escape
the temptations to which most of his
brothers succumb. He smokes little.
aud never touches whisky.
Middlesky is twenty-nine years old
aud was born a member Of the Coco
pab tribe in Mexico.
when he was fifteen years old he
was taken to the railroad and put TO
work in the freight hose, where he
did the work of three men. Commo-
dities that others would put on a truck
Middlesky would pick up in his huge
arms and toss into the cars. II Is
said that in Bisbee the giant took a
f00-pound barrel OF whisky lying on
the floor and set It upright on four
foot counter, and then put a key OF
beer on top OF that, swinging 1t above
his head as though it were a toy.

ELEVATORS ATTRACT
ENGINEERS ATTENTION
THOSE BEING INSTALLED ARE
PERFECTLY SAFE
Hydraulic PIuneer Said to Make Ac-
cidents Practically an ImpossibIity
as Well as to Facilitate Travel.
First of Their Kind on the Coast

OF special interest to Los Angeles
engineers an contractors are the hy-
drauliC plunger elevators that are now
being installed in the Homer Laughlin
building on Broadway.
The elevators are the. first of their
kind ever brought to the coast, and
were ordered by Mr.. Laughlin while on
his recent eastern trip. Absolute safe
ty from any of the accidents which
are liable to occur in connection with
the old style cars is the feature which
recommended the new passenger ele-
Vators to Mr.. Laughlin.
With hydraulic power as the elevat-
ing factor, a great steel rod or plunger,
rising from a shaft drilled into the
ground to a depth equal to the height
of the building, drives the car from the
lower floor to the top with a steady,
silent movement suggestive of great
power and easy application.
In place of the hosting cables which
lift the usual style of elevators and
allow for a possible breakage and &C
cident the new arrangement guaran-
tees perfect safety to the occupants.
The installment of the Laughlin ele-
vators is proceeding under the direc-
ton of the Otis Elevator company,
which has directed the work of all the
plunser cars throughout the country.
One passenger elevator will be ready
for use this morning, and as soon as
possible regular service will be at the
convenience of the public.

BOB WH|TES|DES On POLITICAL
 OUTLOOK
That Is Estimate Made by County Assessor at Pres
 ent Time.

At the depot last evening just as he vas leaving for his home at Nogaies, Hon. Bo. J. Whitesides was asked by Review reporter regarding the ter ritorial political situation.
 Tt looks to me-" said Mr. White sides. that there is nothing to 1t but one of the greatest and most pro- nounced sweeping Democratic vic tories that the good people of Arizona have ever known. It has been my good fortune, during the past sixty days. to meet and confer with the prominent men or our party and also with the rank and file.
 The Republican party of Arizona Is very much at sea. They have not a single issue upon which to make a congressional campaign and the re- turn of Mark Smith to Congress is conceded from one end of Arizona to the other. .za~. ---r
 The Republicans of Arizona aI- ways have with them sone one they desire to sidetrack and the fight is how on to see which one Is the per soma non grsta with the powers that be, which will serve as an excnse for firing him from his present official position. and hand to him second addition of the great gold brick which was 50 touchihgy and successfully delivered at the last Prescott conven- ton.
 From what I have heard, am quite confident in saying to you that Bisbee will get the next Territorial Democratic Convention I believe the Territorial Democratic Committee will grant the request without discussion.
 From what I learn in Cochise county the Democratic party has given excellent satisfaction in the ad- ministration of county affairs. The best news that have heard is the fact that under & Democratic administra- tion taxation in this county has been reduced from the big figure of $4.20 per s100 valuation to $2.90. with the further assurance that it will be re duced more this year.
 Mir. Whitesides expects to be in Santa Cruz county during the next ten days looking after his political fences.
