They have aban- doned Bisbee for the present and evil dently are working on the theory that if they succeed in shutting down the smelter at Douglas the mining com- panies would be in a more willing frame of mind to treat with them. From hearsay and street talk l gath cred the impression that the working men at Douglas are slow in following the advice of the organizers.
 The big mining companies in Co., chise county are turning out their usual monthly production of copper and it is expected that the Shattuck smelter will be in operation in the Copper City before another twelve months have past.

RtDEWILL RETURNS
 FROM OUTING TRIP
Incidentally He Took Time to Do Lot of Business and Improved Every Opportunity to Say Nice Things About Phoenix.

A. Redewill. is without doubt one of the most extensive travellers in Ari- zona and Sonora, Mexico. He return ed yesterday morning from a months outing On his return trip he stopped at CanaRea, Tucson. Bisbee and vari- ous other points. Mir. Redewill says that the progress in those towns is marvellous.
 Business seems to be good and mon- ey plentiful. Cananea is booming. The population now exceeds 25,000. Hotels are full to their utmost capacity and many a weary traveller must rest con- tent with sleeping on a cot in the hall- way. at S1.O0 each.
 No sooner small residence is built or the mesa, than a score of people offer s150 per month, Mexican money, for rent thereof. Mind that this is for a small five room house. unfurnished. A new electric railway is being built which will connect the mesa with the mines and mills. (The mesa is the portion of Cananea where the business and residence buildings are located)
 Tucson is also building up fast and everywhere the sound of the hammer.
  upon the ear. one of Tucson's most gratifying evidences of prosperity is that. with its fine hotel accommoda- tions, and a multitude of residences put up. shelter cannot be found for all who come to the "Old Pueblo" to reside. Yet, after visiting these pros porous cities and other live towns like Bisbee, Douglas. etc, and noting their progress, I am forced to say that Phoenix is the star city of the south west. There is something about our city, its wide streets, it's beautiful homes with pretty lawns and flower gardens, and its extensive mercantile establishments. that are lacking in all others and, with the completion of the Tonto Basin Reservoir and the advent of the trunk railroad line which is now heading in our direction, it is safe to say that Arizona's capital city will be beyond comparison with her sister cities in Arizona.
 T learned in Tucson that the South crn Pacific Railroad company, has completed plans for several new and substantial railroad shops west of Phoenix and the construction will be- gin at no distant daZ. This will mean a substantial monthly payroll for Phoenix. Taking all the above, with other improvements now under way. with due consideration, Phoenix is destined, by the natural force of cir cumstances and by nature to be strict ly in it, to use a slang phrase.

 Pitching tents was the succeeding
 contest. Three groups of seven men lcontested. each to erect a tent in the shortest time. It was matter sof less than five minutes. The modern army tent is a circular one with but one pole and low sides. This form of tent will shelter more men than the same

 usual form. In the Mounted Tug of War which followed. two teams of six each. mounted bareback lined up in op- posing directions. the effort being to pull from the grasp of the other side

 to draw the rope from their oppo- nents clutches. It was more an exhi- bition of strength than of skill.
 The drill parade was heartily cheer ed by the spectators and was certain

 mounted men across green field. All ordinary forms of marching order were
 gone though with from column by twos. fours and more. full column for
 ward and to the rear. flanking move ments. close formation and extended
 order. As the troopers wheeled into the formations it was plain to be seen
 that the horses understood almost as well as the men what was required of
 them. The men rode well and executed the orders simultaneously and with
 out halt ar break in the movement. The bugler of the troop is a good one
 and blew scarcely one false tone.
 The men have enjoyed the.r stay in the city very much. Yesterday the lieutenant pointed out one horse whom
 they call Santa Fe, that holds the rec ord for having the hardest trot that
 rider ever endured. Needless to say
 Santa Fe is not a favorite saddle anil
 nal. He is rather kept in reserve to
 administer punishment.

The first event was the Rescue race probably the most exciting on the pro gram. Three men mounted and three on foot were placed loo yards apart. The supposition was that the men afoot had lost their horses and had been hurt. It was the work Of the mounted troopers to take a man each on his horse and return to the starting point, the two first reaching this goal were to be declared the winners. At the sound of the pistol shot the riders were off. Two of the men afoot mounted the running horses on the re- turn very well but the other had some difficulty in getting astride and finally fell off and rolled over in the dust of defeat and chagrin, much to the mer- riment of the spectators in the grand stand and his fellow soldiers. The Face was won by Sergeant Murphy and Corporal Burger.
 The second event was the packing contest. There were three groups of contestants. each composed of three men. Each group was provided with mule and two heavy bundles to be tied up and fastened to the complac- ent mule in the speediest possible time. One of the ground rules was that the mule was to stand still and not kick or he would be put out of the game. At the pistol shot the three groups started with their respective mules for the bundles. True to his makeup one black animal refused to be led but his men got him there with persistent showing. The men with the stubborn burden bearer would have won nevertheless but they fell behind

THE CAVALRYMEN
 ENTERTAIN CIVILIANS
With Drill Parade at the Fair Grounds Yesterday Afternoon.

The drill parade and athletic exer- under the command of Lieutenant Sel- wyn D. Smith. at the fair grounds yes terday afternoon, was witnessed by a large attendance of civilians. to whom the event was novel and interesting sight. The troop will leave today at four o'clock on the return trip to the fort which will be made over the same route most of the way as it came over, though it is probable that when Roose- welt is reached the wagons will be sent over the easier and longer route and the troop will take a journey across the hills.
 The horses of the cavalrymen have occupied the stalls at the west side of the grounds and the tents of the troop CTS were arranged along to the east. by the deserted Midway. The horses are nearly all splendid animals. high spirited and remarkably intelligent and well trained. The exercises which began at 5:30 also showed forth the thorough drilling of the men in the maneuvers and in horsemanship. Lieu tenant Smith has a keen commanding voice and his orders could be heard plainly most of the time even in the grandstand.
 The first order that came was boots and saddles The troopers immedi- ately brought their horses and saddled up for the drill. They were formed speedily in column and in fours march, ed to the mile track and gave a few preliminary revolutions and then marched to the half mile track and orders to dismount were given. Fol- lowing this were the athletic exercises.

IN a Rose GARDEN.

BY John Bennett.
A hundred years from now. dear heart,
We will not care at all.
1t will not matter then whit
The honey or the gall.
The summer days that we have known
VIII all forgotten be and flown;
The garden will be overgrown
Where now the roses fall.
A hundred years from now, dear heart
We will not mind the pain.
The throbbing crimson tide Of life
Will not have left stain.
The song we sing together, dear,
The dream we dream together here
VIII mean no more than means a tear
Amid summer rain.
A hundred years from now, dear heart
The grief will all be Ger;
The sea Of care will surge in vain
Upon careless shore
These glasses we turn down today,
Here at the parting of the way,
We shall be wineless then as they,
And will not mind it more.
A hundred years from now, dear heart
Well neither know nor care
What came of all life's bitterness,
Or followed loves despair.
Then fill the glasses up again
And kiss me through the roseleaf rain
Well build one castle more in Spain
And dream one more dream there.
