SOUTH BlSBtE MAKES
 REPLY ID STATEMENT
Aggregation of Ball ToSsers From Lower End of District
 Bona Eide Workmen.

On account of the fact that Bisbee aggregation of bali-tossers has not az yet seen fit to accept the challenge of the South Bisbee team for a game on the Fourth of July, and in an inter- view published several days ago Man ager Blair of the local organization made statement that would lead one to believe that the team from the low CT end of the district was made up of imported professionals. deep feeling exists.
 In his statement, Blair said that his outfit would cross bats with the South Bisbee team for any amount up to $500, if they were assured that the nine was made up of men working in the district and not of professional ball players, who had merely been brought here for the game
 When seen last evening by a Re view reporter, and asked if his aggre- gation was made up of bona fide working men of the district, Nj, J. Sullivan, manager of the South Bisbee team. said:
 The reported statement of Blair seems to me to be absolutely absurd. and 1t looks very much as if the Bis pee lediu WdS dITalu Ol DelnS beaten by a nine from the small village of South Bisbee. Everyone in the dis. trict who has followed the game at all knows that our men are employed right in the mines here, and have been working In the [. s. & P. shaft for periods, running from several months to several years.
 "All of this talk concerning the ringers 1t seems to me is prompted by fear that the Bisbee team would be badly walloped in game with our boys, and in order to save what l't+ie rs-Htatiou as a baseball organi- zation they have they make this yell.
 Although we know perfectly well that Bisbee in the past has had some of it's best players directly from our community and has secured positions for ball players in the district to get them for the team, We are still will ing to play with our own team made TT of workmpn and not professional ball tossers and believe that we can easily beat the fastest team Blair can get together"

NEW YORK, June 26.-Anna Held's gibes and jeers, Comedian Charles A. Bigelaw explained today, caused him to quit "The Parisian Model" in the middle of last nights performance and to walk out of the Broadway Theatre in a temper that was at least 20 degrees hotter than the weather

 You were humiliated by Miss HeId?"
 Yes said MT. Bigelow, 'she made me feel it would be impossible for me to finish the performance and retain a bit of my self respect. She treated me in such a mean manner that ! could endure 1t no longer, and so that at the end of th< second act. took of my makeup and left the theatre" Mir. Bigelaw hesitated a moment be fore explaining the nature of Miss Held's .'meanness," then said: q suppose it was the result of an an nouncement made in morning papei

MAKES VICIOUS ATTACK WITH
 KNIFE
Robert Brooks SIashes Man Named Shaker Who 0p- posed Him in Business
 Wounds Are Dangerous.

A sensational development of some business troubles in which a man by the name of Shaker. employed by the Cope. Queen Company, and secre tary of the Brooks Consolidated Cop per Company, and Robert Brooks, a heavy stockholder in the corpora tion, were Involved. was the stabbing of the former last evening in the of flee ot NJ. J. Brown in the Antlers' Building on Main street last evening. Brooks gave himself up to the officers and was placed under $500 bonds.
 It is reported that Brooks has heen very angry since last January, when he was relieved of his office as gener- al manager of the company by the di- rectors. who had come to the conclu- sion, 1t Is alleged, that his admins tration was too expensive. It Is stat ed that yesterday morning he called on Nj. J. Brown, also interested in the company, and during the course of conversation. made some threats against the consummation of which he was advised by Brown Brooks, finally, it is reported, asked Brown to make an appointment with Shaker for 7:30 last evening in his office.
 In the evening Brown had gone up Main street on business and on re- turning to his office entered to see Shaker bleeding profusely from s--r-yessS ahop+ ris hoad and face rhiie be was kneeiing on Brooks ele.t skaaea called to Brown to get the knife which his opponent had and after a struggle Brown was sue cessful in getting the weapon. Shaker was then taken to a doctor and Brooks went to Justice Hogan's court where he gave himself up.
 Shakers side of the story Is that he was sitting in the office when Brooks entered and demanded to talk with him. Shakers friends state that in reply Brooks was asked to take 8 seat for a minute. According to the report Brooks was very persistent and demanded an immediate inter view. finally taking from his pocket the knife and attacking Shaker. He succeeded in dealing his opponent a deep scalp wound. slash across the throat, narrowly missing the vein, and 3 deep cut across the nose.
 Shaker is a much younger man than proCke a-1 scnn ovo~nnwered h'r1, throwing him to the floor and kneel ing op his chest, waiting for help, as he was becoming so weak from the loss of blood that he could hardly hold up. A physician dressed his wounds later. none of them being con sIdered dangerous.

BOYS CAUSE TROUBLE
 WITH HSMALL REVOLVERS
Get Guns of % Calibber and Cause Damage-Dealer's
 License May be Revoked.

Within the past few days the local officers have become cognizant of the fact that someone has been selling to small boys in the district revolyers of ,2z caliber, and that by means of the new implement the youngsters have been making life miserable for several neighborhoods of the city.
 when seen yesterday Marshal Snod- grass stated that his men had been in formed of outrages committed with the small guns, and that vigorous investi- satlon is now on foot.
 It seems that those who are selling the small reyolvers are either una- ware of the fact that this weapon comes within the provisions Of the law iorbidding the carrying of concealed

LITTLE GIRL ASKS
 DOCTOR FOR BABY
Phoenix Miss Gets Lonesome and Writes Out Order for Delivery of Infant.

PHOENIX, June 2G.--A great many incidents are related of innocent but anxious little girls who deplore the absence of baby in the house. and their urgent pleadlngs with influen- tial friends to provide them with one. Generally the story stops with per sonal request of that kind There Is enc little Phoenix girl though, who Is desperately in earnest and willing to do anything she can to help fill up and round out the family circle as it should be in these days of anti-race suicide She has been taught as most children have, that medical men are looked to mainly ,or the regulation of these affairs and finding that her personal requests have brought no re- suits she decided to take up the mat ter officially and formally with the proper authorities.
 She is just old enough to write a ! little bit, not beautifully, but never i theless legibly. Yesterday afternoon she walked by the office of pr. CraIg l on Center street and to a gentleman sitting in front, handed the following note which she requested he would give to Dr. Craig, as 1t was important. | The gentleman hastened to do so as soon as the doctor appeared and here IS Ehe note. except for names and ad- dress which are left blank, though they all appeared ia tso, note in good
 faltn and earnestness:
 Phoenix, Arizona, June P, 1907. i Dr. Vim Wylie

Thil I nay be something of jJke on hel ! parents. but the little lady Is ver5 I much in earnest and the doctor hope that she may not doomed to a lastini T disappointment, particularly as she ii Ii net exacting in her wishes and doe l not specify that 1t must be either boy or girl, as most children do Unfortunately he has let the stool run down now as the summer dul season is approaching. so if the htti' girl reads this she will know why tn

The wreck of the special train
of the Southern Pacific road car
rying a number of Shriners, at
Honda, CAL, is one of the sad
dest of the many horrifying rail-
road disasters OF the past twelve
months. After a week of pleas
ure the tourists are just embark
ed for home and within a little
while the lives of men, women
and children are crushed out in
a wreck that was due to some
body's cureiessness and neglect
of duty. The blame for such
wrecks is hard to place, but it j is
growing more apparent that the
management of the roads are
due the passengers better SER
vice and better protection to life
and person than they are receiv-
ing. Almost without exception
the numerous wrecks can be
traced to the neglect of duty of
the underpaid, incompetent, over
worked, cheap employee who is
used where the services of a re-
liable, competent man should by
all means be employed. Where
so many lives are at stake only
trustworthy employees should be
engaged, and the laws should be
such that the heads of railroads
could employ no others.

The Late Season.

Reports from the cotton belt
east of the Mississippi river are
to the effect that the planting
season has been the most unfa-
vorable known in the history of
cotton raising. No section re-
ports a stand of cotton as yet,
from the Atlantic to the Missis-
sippi, and present indications are
that most of the seed IN the
ground would better be out of it.
With the most favorable weather
a stand of cotton cannot be Sc
cured before the first of June,
which is very late for a large
portion of the territory. Por-
tions Of Texas have experienced
the same unfavorable conditions,
and none of the cotton sections
of the state report the best OF
conditions for the plant. The
low s~tates-Arkansas and Lou
isiana-have practically little
chance to make anything like an
average crop. The outlook is by
no means encouraging at the
present time, but a few weeks
of dry weather and sunshine can
work wonderful improvement,
and there is no need to despair.
Should a small crop follow this
unfavorable beginning, the high
err price will compensate for the
shortage in bales.

The fight which is now brew
ing in the ranks of the Republi-
can party in the states Of New
York and Ohio promises to be
one of the events of the next ma
tional campaign. Already in both
states there is eyidence that the
leading citizens of each state
would like to be the nominee of
the party for president next
year, and the nomination will not
60 to any favorite son without a
contest. These states-New
York and Ohio-have furnished
the president for the last thirty
years-since the Republicans
stole the presidency from Tilden
and seated Hayes-with one ex-
ception, that being Benjamin
Harrison of Indiana. In New
York Gov. Hughes will be brought
forward with formidable
strength and unless President
Roosevelt is able to hold the state
in line for Taft, Hughes will
have it's endorsement. The pres
ident will be placed in an awk-
ward position toward his own
man-Hughes- but if the NOM
nation is not forced on himself,
Mr.. Roosevelt will sacrifice any
man to make Mr.. Taft president.
In the latter's state he has a hard
fight to win it's endorsement over
Senator Foraker; and if a prima-
ny is ordered the Senator has
more than an even chance of
winning. With the two leading
Republican states at loggerheads
it would appear that an outsider
could get enough states togeth-
err to give him the nomination. .
