Must Not Drink.

The I.chigh Valley railroad has served
notice On its employees that they must be
total abstainers from alcoholic drinks or
leave the service Of the company, and it
Is quite likely that all Of the other lines
in the United States will adopt the same
rule. II is only cumulative evidence
that there are enough sober men in the

viciion is gaining weight everywhere
that the temperance question is not

atoms are now one with the churches in
the effort to suppress this great national

Indeed, no one who has hypnotized crab by rubbing 1t between the eyes will doubt for moment that the eel may somewhat similarly be put to sleep.
 It is the only effective way to detach an eel from the hook Try it.
 Ali fishermen should hail this new discovery with loud acclaim, for Mir. Eel has long been a figuratlye thorn in their sides.
 The cells meat is so sweet and nour- ishing that he is always in demand, but the obstacles met in removing him from the hook have caused most an- glers to look on him in the light of an intolerable nuisance.
 As a matter of fact the writer has met some anglers-and they were not women, either-who would invariably cut their lines and cast hook and fish overheard when the fish proved to be one of the eel family.
 Surely a monument or some other token of gratitude should be erected In honor of the discoverer of the new process of unlocking the wriggling delicacies.
 One veteran eel catcher says 1t is . big help to use a fairly large hook when fishing for eeis. He says the eel Is unable to swallow the large hook, which, as a result, catches in his mouth and can be easily removed.
 Most of the trouble" he says, "comes from using small hook. Thes

BOSWELL HEL1 ON MURDER
 CHARGE
Brothers of Dead Man Bring Matter 10 Attention of the County Attorney and Arrest Followed.

Charged with the murder of lowell, A. B. Boswell was arrested yesterday and taken before Justice Hancock at Paradise for preliminary examination. Boswell would make 10 statement nor give any testimony. He was bound over to await the action of the grand jury, in the sum of 5000.
 Boswell killed lowell at the Portal camp, near Paradise, about three weeks ago. An inquest was held, and the coroner's jury exonerated Boswell. Brothers of the murdered man brought the matter before the county attorney which resulted in Bosweil's arrest.
 Information brought out at the in. quest was that lowell entered the Bos. well saloon at Portal and, stepping up to the bar, shot out the lights. Bos well went into his private room ana got a shotgun, and returning, fre6 both barrels at lowell, killing him in staptly.
 Information about Boswelrs arresi was brought to Bisbee yesterday b! passengers from Donglas.

 Sa1D Game.

One can say that hundreds of thou sands of dollars are expended annual ly for baseball games and convey in a .sgue way what baseball expendi- ture L,eans.
 Prest ming that 25,oo0.oo0 spectators witnessed baseball games in 1905, which is the estimate of one well known authority. 1t Is fair to say that at least half of the 25,OO00Oo paid ad- mission to the games. Suppose that each of this 12,5oO. 900 paid 9 cents to witness his favorite sport. That would make 6 gross tota. of s3.125.oOo at the gate in one season. That begins to sound more like figures.
 Now add to that the car fare which was expended by each spectator where the games were played in large cities and the amount which was handed out to the peanut boy and the lemonade peddler, and an idea begins to form that baseball receipts accumulate quite total even if 1t is the cheapest and most popular form of outdoor sport Nor is what the spectator pays to witness the games all that is expended during the year. Great factories work day and night to make baseballs, and l men have acquired fortunes in placing their wares before the public. Hun dreds of tailors are employed in mak | ing baseball uniforms, and scores of turner's gain a livelihood turning out l baseball bats, while the forests of the middle west have been ransacked tC obtain the best timber to provide the players with sticks to suit them.

BiSBEE LODGE ME MBERS
 LEAVE
Were Joined En Route to Phoe- nix by Delegates From Other Cities and Will Establish Council at Capital City.

For the purpose of establishing a council of the Knights of Columbia lodge at Phoenix, twenty member of the Bisbee order left last night for that city. They were joined at Os- born by a delegation from Douglas. and at Benson and Tucson others join ed the delegation.
 The Prescott degree team, assisted by the team from Bisbee will put on the inltiatory work. About fifty mem bers will be initiated. This is the largest class ever put on by any lodge in Arizona.
 The services will take place Sunday. after which big spread will be laid for the class and visiting members. It will be given by Phoenix parties. Flu gene Brady O'Neil of Phoenix will be the toastmaster.
 Captain Dalton, of Fort Huachuca, joined the party at Benson. He is chaplain of the grand chaplain of the lodge in Arizona.
 Whether the party will be prevent ed from reaching Phoenix by Sunday is a matter of some doubt by some of the party as rumors had reached here that the Gila bridge had been washed out by the recent rains. If the bridge is gone the lodge ceremonies will probably be deferred until a future date.
 Among the party from Bisbee are Joseph E. Morrison. J. P. Connolly Thomas Hogan, Bernard w. Norton c. E. Malone, William Truax, Jr., J, P. Gibbons. Frank F. Coles Daniel Reed, Charles Flynn, James Proven cher. J. F. McAllister and P. A. Mon- ahan.

Roy A. Hartzell, the clever young third baseman of the St Louis American league club, is a native of St. Louis. where he was born July 6, 1881. He started his professional career as pitcher with the Logan club of the Utah league in 1902. He began the season of 1903 as outfielder and later as third baseman of the Peoria club and finished the season with the Denver club of the Western league. Last year he was con sidered the star infielder of the Western league and attracted national attention. After lively bidding by several major league clubs the St Louis club last fall succeeded in purchasing Hartzelrs re- lease for s2,5oo.I
 Even that doesn't tell the story. Clubs expend large sums in travel. The rail- roads and the hotels are benefited. Spectators frequently journey long dis tances to witness matches between fa- nous hines. At the worlds champion ship series last fall there were several spectators who travelled all the way from California to the Atlantic coast to see the New York Giants and Phila- delphia Americans play for the cham pionship.

ABOUT ARIZONA.

Arizona is probably the richest part of Gods earth in minerals taken as a whole. Some other st. res and ter ritorfes are rich in spots; but Ariona takes the prize when it comes to gold, silver, copper, lead and other precious metals. In all sections of the terri tory seemingly mineral wealth is found in abundance. A few years ago DO one would have believed in the ex- istence of Copper Queen or a Calu- met & Arizona; and yet the half has not come to light. Arizona is the rich est in wealth developed, and undeyel. oped, and here is the place for poor men to become rich and rich men to get richer. The wealth is here. Come and get it.

 But an ingenious angler, with the nervous system of the eel in mind, has discovered a better way.
 The eel, properly handled, may be soothed and put into an immediate state of calm simply by rubbing him gently on the spinal column with a match or small stick.
 The accompanying illustration, which Is genuine, shows how it is done and should carry conviction to the most skeptical mind.
