STRIKE REFERRING OUT.

Douglas international
 The strike iuaugurated in Bisbee by the Western Penetration of Miners or ganizers is gradually coming to close IS an incident in the history of the Warren district. Every day secs men come in on the train turn a deaf ear to the story of the organizers and their pickets and promptly accept em- ployment in the mines at the best wages to be had in the country for the shortest time of work. Every man under ground in the Warren district receives s4 for eight hours work.
 The business men in Bisbee all tell the same story of the improved condi- tions and anyone may 8 for them selves that miners are coming into the district daily and accepting work This is cause for qualification on the part of all. The banks of Bisbee re- port that the paydays this month dis closed the fact that conditions were not as bad as had been anticipated The payrolls of the mining companies have net been effected to the extent that had been looked for. The pleas ing feature noticeable at the banks was that nearly all pay checks pre- scented were fer more than S100 each.
 It is usual on paydays al this season of the year for many men to go away for a vacation, but this week very few of the men at worl announced their intention of going away. The morning after payday siXty-five more men reported for work than had been on duty the previous day and practi- cally none are quitting. The pickets have about ceased operations on the trails travelled by the miners to and from the mines. 4 few may be seen around the depot when trains arrive looking for men who come into .he district seeking employment. but the influence of the pickets is having no effect now, ss practically everyone in Bisbee. not of the strikers, considers the strike practically closed.
 The street talking no longer attracts
 ttention except from the curious and those who go to hear it as they would go to any other place of amusement. Mother" Jones has been on duty for the past week, but she has proved a disappointment and has caused no en- thusiasm among the strikers.
 A few days ago coach load of min CTS arrived in a body from Colorado, many men bring their families; there were forty-five miners In the car. They were visited by the strike leaders and implored not to accept employment The men. after listening to the story cs the strike leaders, announced that they had been Informed of the eondi- tions at Bis5ee before leaving Colo rado and that they had come to the Warren district to work and intended b do so. Next morning they all took
 iaces in the mines with the declara- ton that they were there to stay. It was stated in Bisbee yesterday that more miners will come to the Warren district from Colorado on the report received from the first party.

WATER TANK FALLS,
 ALARMS THATCHER
Plume Is Being Built 10 Float Lumber From Graham
 Mountain,

THATCHER, Ariz. May 16-Consid- erable excitement was caused in the business district Tuesday afternoon, when the supports sustaining the 75- barrel water supply tank at the Pro iucers Milling company's plant gave way and the big tank fell to the ground, a distance Of twenty feet, with an awful crash which attracted people from all over the town to the scene of the accident. Mrs, Layton, who resides next door to the mill, hearing the crash, concluded that the mill had collapsed and evidently fear ing loss of life, tainted away and it required considerable effort to restore Ter to consciousness. In the fall the ank was completely ruined and con siderable damage was done to quanti- " of four stored in a room in the vicinity of the tank pedestals.
 workmen at the mill had just com pleted filling the tank when the col apse occurred, but fortunately there vas no person in the immediate yicin- 'ty when the big reservoir fell to the ground with its seventy-fiye barrels f water. It is believed that a defec- i've piece of timber in the framework, tuc tdlAhs Hd6 Cor the accident. Manager Layton of he company is out of the city and the actual loss is not known at this time. The mishap will tie the mill up until I new tank can be secured, which will ~erhaps occasion the greatest loss to the company.

Il PASO BALL TEAM
 HAS DISBANOED
Some of Players Well Known Here Will Return To
 Douglas,

The Fl Paso ball team has disband- ed, according to a rumOr.
 It is stated that Manager J. W. Nor gan, being unable to secure any sup port in his efforts to keep the sport go- ing and having borne the expense up to this time himself. feels that he is not justified in longer continuing the team and the release was given last night
 It is probable that Gallegos will sign with the Internationals, while Diekin- son will go back to Las Vegas, where he came from.
 Murdock will return to Douglas, while Godfrey, if he does not sign with local team, will hie his way to Tucson. Sprintz will probably play with one of the Fl Paso teams.
 So far the Internationals have put up the most consistent ball of any az gregation In Fl Paso and they nave made a good record. While the new team had hardly had time to get into shape, 1t probably would have been ible to put up a game the fans would have liked had the manager been able ito let loose of several hundred dollars |every week, but this became an up- hill job, consequently Manager Mor- gan was forced to release.
 He stated, however, that he would be willing to contribute his share to- ward any bunch of men who would go in, put up the money and bring on players who could deliver a brand of goods that would make this one of the best baseball towns in the whole south west, and it is to be hoped that such will be the case. The town is plenty large enough to support a good team If some of the sports would dig, and there is nothing that provides, more amusement than the great American game

 The reason given is that Cannon has disagreed with the President on many matters of legislation, and is not in sympathy with his programme; that the President wants another man for Speaker, and regards Burton as the most formidable candidate, and, furthermore. that he does not see ms way to get the sort of Illinois dele gation he wants next year, without crushing Uncle Joe" and keeping him out of the Speakers chair.
 Speaker Cannon Is described as declaring that he has no desire to balk the Presidents plans.

Could See Through His Nose.

Several authors at the end Of the
sixteenth and beginning of the seven
teenth century mention a man who had
lost both Of his eyes, but could see
through his nose. An account Of him
is given in the 4Occulus Artifcialis
Teledioptricus of Joannis Zahn. 1t
appears that he lived In the country
and had the misfortune to lose his
right eye when a child and his left
when somewhat older by falling from
a cherry tree upon spike which mu-
tilated his nose and cheek. After the
wound had healed he found that he
could see through the cavity Of his
nose not merely the daylight, but the
colors OF the flowers around him. Dur
ing the next five'or six years he learn
ed to distinguish objects brought un-
der his nose A French psychologist
explained the phenomenon by suppos-
ing that the membranes, and particu-
larry the retina at the base Of the eye,
were sound and that an opening COM
municating with the nose permitted
the light to reach the retina through
the nose. 1T is well known that IL
light enters a dark room by a narrow
aperture 1t will form an image or pie
ture on screen there, and something
of the kind happened in the case of the
man who saw with his nose.

Poetry, WITH ! stino \, ia nj.

On one occasion when William Ham

woods and paused to rest beneath the
shadows of the pines.
Here are your favorite pines,
Hayne," said Peck. Lets dream
few poems beneath them"
The languid summer day had its eff.
feet on them, and they were soon gnor-
ing and dreaming away.
But suddenly both awoke and both
started down the home road at top
speed, shouting as they ran.
An army of yellow Jackets had dis
ceEered them, and, not being partial
to poetry, had forcibly and feeIingly
resented its intrusion on their domain.
Later, at supper, Peck asked:

A young woman told tale Of cruel
desertion to the officers of an east side
charitable institution in New York, and
when her case had been disposed of
she started to leave the room, wailing,
"If / had only believed the cards!''
She was asked to explain and said:

Manners MaIkysh Man,

d William of Wykeham, a fourteenth
century bishop Of the see Of Winches-
ter, was not only a great clergyman
and great statesman, but one of the
greatest builders OF the middle ages.
He was the founder Of Winchester col
lege, which is the Oldest of all the Eng
lish public schools. He was the chief
architect of the Cathedral Of Winches-
ter, and when the king wanted a new
wing on his castle at Windsor he or
dered Wykeham to build 1t. Wyke-
ham was SO proud Of his work that he
chiseled on 1t, "Hoc ffecit Wykeham"
(Wykeham made this. At this the
king was very angry, for he thought he
had built the castle himself, and Wyke-
ham would perhaps have lost his head
IL he had not kept his wits about him.
He explained that It was his greatest
glory to be the builder of his kings
palace and that the inscription should
read, '@This was the making Of Wyke-
ham" The translation was clever
enough, and, though the king was prob
ably not deceived, Wykeham kept his
head on bis shoulders. Perhaps the
king would have been sorry to lose SO
valuable man. At any rate, you can
see the inscription to day from the
north terrace, and the incident throws
no little Hight on the sincerity Of the
motto on the Winchester arms, "Man-
