The inhabitants 0. a small town back
east, rejoiced over the settlements es-
cape from destruction and the manner
in which the threatened misfortune was
avoided. During a high wind Frank
Gensley, clerk, discovered that the
floor of Dusterhoff Bros store was
burning The flames were rapidly
gaining Roadway and no water was
available In the store was a barrel
Of bottled beer. and this, with great
presence of mind, Gensey utilized for
fire fighting purposes. He threw bot
tie after bottle of beer into the flames
until the fire was extinguished. Had
the fire progressed and the store been
burned it is more than likely that the
flames would have been communicated
to adjoining buildings, and the entire
town might have been destroyed. Thir-
teen bottles of beer were required to
put out the fire.

KERR LOOKS FOR
 BIG RESULTS
Says Sierra MadreS Will StartIe the World in
 Mine Work.
Especial to Review.O

CANANEA, Aug. 23.-H. J. Kerr, private auditor for Col. w. c. Greene, left today for Hereford following a few days spent here. MT. Kerr came to the city from the Sierra Madres, where he was for several months. Of conditions in the Sierra Madres. he said today:
 MT. Greene has perfected a splen- did organization there, both as to the operative forces of the timber con- pany and of the mines. He is now making every stroke tell and big things are being accomplished under the personal direction he has practi- cally given continually during the past several weeks. The timber plant will, when completed, upon the arrival of equipment now in transit, be with out doubt. one of the most complete and modern in all apartments, of any plant on the American continnet. He has inestimable supplies to deal with in the vast forests which the com panies own. Madeira, the center of these operations, is bound to become a large city, and it will in the nature of things. be permanent one. Re- garding the mining operations of MT. Greene in the Sierra Madres, believe with others who have given these en- teTprises study and consideration, that he is making for world startling results there within the next few years
 MT. Kerr, after spending a few days at Hereford, will return to this city.

ELECTION ON BONDS
 SCHEDULED FOR TODAY
Question of Bonding School District for S18,000 Will Be
 Decided.

Today the taxpayers of the Warren school district will decide the question of ~lether they shall give their ap- proyal to the issuance of S1S,00 worth of bonds for the improvement of the educational facilities throughout the district of not.
 Some time ago the local school board came to the conclusion that in view of congested conditions another room would have to be added to the Lincoln school house in Tombstone Canyon, the same in South Bisbee, and that school building should be erected in Warren on ground which was donated for this purpose by the Warren Company
 Estimates were secured or the probable cost, e,of the contemplated inn proyements and totaied the sum of $1S,O00. The board then drew up the plan of floating bond issue for the amount bearing per cent interest and payable in nine years at the rate of two certificates each successive year from the time of issue. Tn ac- cordance with the territorial statutes the questionlis now placed before the taxpayers for their decision.
 There has been practically no in. terest displayed in this important mat ter by the public generally and on this account very light vote is look ed for today.

BOWMAN HINTS COUNTY MUST
 SETTLE
Declares That if Raise on Mines Is Not Made, Territory Will Collect Extra Sum, Just the Same

Supervisor G. J. McCabe came in last evening from his home in the Hua- chucas and will spend today in this city. MT. McCabe stated to a Review representative that as yet he had not been served by any writ of mandamus by the territorial authorities as is ex- pected on account of the action of the board of supervisors, or rather the county board of equalization, in refus- ing to place on the duplicate assess ment roll the raise of POO per cent on the non-producing patented mines in Cochise county, as was ordered by the territorial board of equalization.
 One of the principal reasons" said Supervisor McCabe, that we refused to place the raises on was the fact that the raise only goes for territorial purposes and the county derives no revenue from the same, and at the same time is conselled to pay for the work of placing these raises on the duplicate assessment roll, and which causes a vast amount of extra work, in that it makes the clerk of the board of supervisors or his assistants in making up the rolls go over the list of every patented mine in the county subject to the raise, and figure out the increased assessment, and then put it down as taxes for the revenue of the territory only. The point being that the territory would get the entire ben eft and the county be out the expense of doing the work
 AS 1t is." continued MT. McCabe, "Mr. Berner, clerk of the board Of supervisors. will have to put two shifts at work on the duplicate rolls to com piete them in the time required by law, which is the middle of September, as but three clerks can work at the books at once and by only workiEg one shift. So two sets of clerks will be employed. The additional work of putting on the territorial raise would require nearly two weeks extra work" !"
 We decided to test the matter and see whether the county was compelled to go to this extra expense for the benefit of the trritory and receive nothing therefrom."
 In connection with the above. it might be well to state that Review representative saw Charles Bowman, the member of the territorial board of equalization, in Tombstone yesterday, and asked him what steps, if any, the territorial board would take in the matter. Mir Bowman replied that he did not know just what action would be taken by the board or the attorney general, but that some action would be taken, and that the county would have the amount to pay if they did not col feet it."

ORIENTALS WERE JAPANESE NOT
 CHINESE
Local Officers Not Able to Tell Difference Between Orien- taIS of the Two Brands Were Escaped Prisoners,

Although they were once successful in getting away from the immigration authorities at Douglas. and making their way to this city the two Orient als, who were in reality Japanese, whereas the local officers took them for Chinese, are now on their way to Dcson, where they will be kept in jail until a consignment of foreign CTS is shipped to San Francisco, and from there to their native lands. Unit ed States Immigration Inspector Con nell took the two subjects of the Mi kado into custordy yesterday and transferred them to Tucson.
 Tn answer to the dispatch sent by the local police to him at Douglas, Cornell arrived in the city yesterday morning, and in company with the officers went at once to the city jail to see the foreigners. As soon as he laid eyes on them the immigration inspector informed the policemen of their mistake, and recognized in the two, men who had escaped from the officers at Douglas on Wednesday.
 The Japanese had endeayored to make their way across the internat- ional boundary line near Douglas and were captured by Cornell. In these cases it is the custom to place the prisoners under guard and not put them in jail, so the inspector follow ed the usual course, having day and night guard for the two. It. seems the guard went to sleep at the switch and when he woke up discovered the screen of the room cut out. telling eloquently that the birds had flown.
 They were traced as far as Osborne by Cornell who then thought they had gone on west, not believing that they would risk their liberty in Bisbee He went on to Naco but could find no trace of them, and sent word to the posts in the central portion of the territory to look out for the men.
 As soon as he received the telegram he came to Bisbee, and decided to take the Japs immediately to Tucson, as they were already under sentence of deportation, having had hearing before the United States commissioner at Douglas.

CHANGES EXPECTED
 ON HARTMAN LINES

Rumors foreshadowing Southern Pacific managerial shake-up that have been discussed up north for several weeks received impetus yesterday by the return of the officials of the Salt Lake system, says Los Angeles dis patch.
 The rumors are relative to the re tirement of w H. Bancroft. first vice president of the Salt Lake and gener- al manager of the Oregon Short Line.
 E. E. Calvin, second vice president and general manager of the Southern Pacific, Is slated as Bancroft's sue cessor.
 Bancroft's health is said to be de clining. He has extensive interests outside of railroads, and as he is aging railroad men say they will not be surprised to see him quit active managerial work.
 Vice President J. Ross Clark of the Salt Lake said yesterday that Ban croft has been with their party as far as Caliente, and he noted that he was

B|G GAMES ARE DISAPPOINTING
 IN RESULTS
Godfrey and Kirk Make Santos 0umont Look Like 30 Gents (Mex) When it Comes to Navigating in the Air,

The biggest surprises to date in the pool tournament which is in progress at the ElkS' Club came last evening when Dr. E. F. Godfrey and R. A. Kirk went down to defeat at the hands of F. R. Harrington and w. J. Francis respectively. The surprise was not in the losing of the games, as both were expected to be very close contests, but in the disastrous scores.
 Everybody expected last evenings contest to be the best in the tourna- ment. as it was belieyd that the con testants were more evenly matched than any of the other pairs, and were considered among the most efficient pool players in the city. On this ac- count when the game between Dr. God frey and Harrington was called the big clubroom was crowded.
 Shortly after the opening of the game Harrington with a handicap of five points began to display his old time ability with the cue which it was thought he had lost. because of lack of practice. He seemed confident and executed each shot with precision that was noteworthy. On the other hand, Dr. Godfrey seemed inclined to nervousness. As the game progressed Harrington maintained his steady play and all of a sudden the physician took a balloon ascension, from which he could not return. From this time on Harrington had everything his own way, lengthening his lead with each successive frame, until he finally fin ished the game, while Dr. Godfrey had only fl points to his credit. and a quit claim deed to the burro.
 Since Harrington has shown his old time form he is looked upon as one of the most dangerous men in the tour nament for the first prize, and has also got lead of one point for the high run.
 Billy" Francis defeated Kirk by a score of 100 to 79. In the first few frames Kirk played a careful and steady game, overcoming Francis handicap of ten points. At the fifty mark only a few points separated the two contestants, with Francis in the lead. and the spectators. who had been so badly disappointed in the Godfrey Harrington game, expected to see a driving finish. Just about this time. however, the newspaper man also bought a balloon and started on tour, never alighting until the referee yelled 100 to 79.

variety of food, including clover

their feed bulky and improved

lating laying. l did not have
good range, but fed my flock at a
less cost than most farmers

wAIsrLEa,s COCK HIGHT yARN,
Disguised Eagle Pitted by Yankee
Sailors Against British Champions.

Whistler used to take delight In tell.
Ing story Of some American sailors
who we're at a cockfight In a seaport
town In England. when one Of them
remarked to the owner of the cham
pion:
We've got an American cock on
board that can whip any bird here"
go fetch I'm on" said the English
man. "chuck I'm in and ste. II g licka
one bird we ave plenty more to throw
In that can lick hany blawsted Ha-
merican bird you can fetch ERE"
"All right; wen bring one" said the
sailors.
When they got aboard they rigged
up au American eagle. After their
own manner they painted, trimmed.
spliced, and reefed fore and aft, trans.
forming the eagle to cock. When
ready they went ashore, and at the pit
chucked In their new gamecock,
which, overcome by surprise, prompt
ly backed close to the wall.
Now bring on your BIRDS" yelled
the sailors.
A strutting cock was thrown Into
the pit, and was another surprise to
the poor dismantled eagle. He backed
closer and closer to the wall, wonder
ing what would happen next
The cock walked three times majes.
tically around the circle, cutting at his
strange opponent, the eagle pitiably
abashed and bedrabbled, crouching
lower and lower, and looking around
and above him for an explanation OF
what 1t all meant, while the crowd
were yelling madly for the English
fighter.
The eagle maze himself smaller and
smaller, but at last, finding that he
could get back no further, and think
ing that something was expected OF
him, stretched out his long claws as
the cock dashed at him again and took
his opponent by the neck.
Here Whistler ended, with an .imita.
tion by motions of what the eagle did,
He stretched out his arm, shaped his
hand like a claw (by this time II
looked like real one), drew 1t to his
mouth, and, with one bite, pulled of
the head, as he thought an eagle
might do 1t. Then he looked blandly
about the room, as the eagle had done.
