HALEY DID WELL.

Darkey Haley, the English feath- erweight. who arrived here a short time ago, received trying out in Philadelphia on Saturday night when he met Tommy O'Toole, a clever local pugilist. in six round bout. O'Toole had the better of the argu- ment in the cary stages of the con- test, but toward the end Haley fought him all over the ring, cutting him over the eye and bringing blood from his nose just before the last bell rang. The Englishman showed much scientific skill. plenty of hitting power. a lot of speed, both in at- tack and defense. and remarkable endurance for a boy of his size and weight.

NEW HAVEN WON.

New Britain, Jan 15.-New Ha- ven, led by Bone, and with a virtual ly new aggregation of players, scored decisive victory over Hartford last night before an audience of 1000. Dukee of the Franklins supplemented Porter at goal and played smart game in front of the cage. Saunders and Barry, both formerly of Bridge port, also donned the New Haven uniform. The former is great ankle player, but his blocks and stops seemed to please the fans greatly. Barry took Bone's place in the third period, and here the want of generalship of the great and only George was felt. With him they played as round a pivot. but without him they acted like ship In a storm without its rudder Bone saw the weakness and returned to the floor and the game assumed its possible features. The summary and lineup:

LOOK OVER YOUR HARNESS CAREFULLY.
Little Jimmy Dunne Dies from
 Effects of Burns.

The Sentinel is pained to record the death of little Jimmy, the three-year- old son of Mr. and Mrs. Jack Dunne, from the effects of burns received Wednesday afternoon Of last week.
 Everything that love and medical skill could suggest was done, but all to no avail, and the patient little sufferer passed from earth Friday night, At first it was hoped he had not inhaled the flames, but it later became evident that he had, and that the tender flesh had also been burned very deep. ren- dering his recovery impossible. The sympathy of the community will go out to the grief-stricken parents and to the brothers and sisters in their sad affiicbion. Jimmy was a remarkably bright and lovable little fellow, and his death seems cruel blow to those who loved him.
 Funeral services were held at the Catholic church Friday afternoon at 3:30, and were attended by a large number of sympathizing friends, who covered the little white casket with flowers. Six little boys, dressed in white, acted as pall-bearers, and car ried the white casket from the white hearse to the altar, where the impress i've services were held.

TAKE UP A FARM.

There are thousands of acres of public lands in the Tucson basin which are open to reclama- tion to any citizen of the United States who has not exhausted his or her rights to public lands. The time will come when this land will be a fortune, for every acre of 1t can be cultivated if water is secured for the same. and this will come with the new means which will be invented for pumping water from the under flow. If you are not able to work, go out and take up tract of land and thus grow rich on it's increasing value which will come with the increased popula- tion of Tucson and the mineral development tributary thereto.

Love to be Humbugged.

It is an old saying that the American people love to be hum bugged. We are reminded oi this by seeing agents canvassing our county with packages Of dry goods. These packages are sold for various prices. People for get how extremely low all class es of goods are at the present time and fall easy victims to the travelling humbugs. Theyfcould buy a mpch better class of goods of our honest home merchants for less money. These city sharks travel through the coun- try and make a fortune out of shoddy goods. A word to the wise ought to be sufficient. The goods they sell are deaE- at any price.

A Barbaric Custom.

We wish a law could be passed prohibiting the barbaric custom of opening caskets in public at church funerals. It is relic of dark ages and has no place in a civilized community. It jars on the sensibility of every tender chord, and is something that the churches and undertakers ought to combine upon and put to an end. In nine-tenths of the cases it's merely pandering to ghoul- ish curiosity. People who never spoke to the deceased in their lives parade around the church, gape at the form of our loved one, then go out of the presence of death, not to talk of the good deeds done in life, but to criti- else the appearance of the poor clay that death has left for once at their mercy. Death is, sa- cred thing. If we are going on long journey we do not make our adieus before gaping crowd; we ought not to be expected to  bid our dead a last goodbye while curious eyes fatten on our grief, and we ought not to be expected to sit in the house of mourning while people we never speak to, who have no claim on us or our loved one jostle each other in their desire to view the remains, and they get together and gossip over what they saw or failed to see. We believe that a majority of the people detest the painful funeral sceues as much as we do and would be more than glad to see them ended, but are afraid to break a custom. But it is duty the minister and undertaken eve to themselves and the long suffering public to put a stop to the exhibition, and they will find the public only too. glad to up- hold them with a hearty amen.

SAN DIEGO AND YUMA RAIL ROAD All Property for Right-of-Way
 Secured.
San Diegan Sun

All deeds for property pur. chased by the San Diego and Arizona railway for purposes ot right-of-way will go on record within twenty days, and actual construction of the road will be- gin within a short time afterward ill this city.
 The railroad yesterday acquir- ed four lots from Lawrence O'Keefe and one from D. Phelan. The contract with the Union Oil company for the purchase of it's property near the foot of Second street, which includes 6 large oil tank, is nearly ready for closing, while the purchase of the property of the Pacific Coast Steamship company, through which the railroad will pass, has practically been agreed upon.
 It is expected that an agree ment will be reached within the next few days with W. P. Fuller & Company for the purchase of the property owned by this con. cern on Eighth street. When these few deals have been closed almost every lot-required by the road will have been purchased.
 The condemnation case is set for trial next Monday, but it is probable that not one contesting defendant will be present, as sat- isfactory arrangements will have been completed with all the prop erty owners by that time.
 In National City only one per son remains to be settled with, he not having accepted the price offered him by the railroad com pany. It is probable, however, that this will be amicably ad- justed within short time.

Tbe management of the details of this important work is in the hands of committees whose mem- bers are accustomed to handling big things. Every facility will be afforded people from a dis tance to visit points of interest in the great Sacramento valley and elsewhere in the state.

Patronize Home Merchants.

One of the many growing evils of thls country today IS the city department store. In our town. where we have the best of stores, the most honorable merchants, and where goods are sold at a margin so small as not to afford a respectable living to our busi
 ness men, thousands of dollars are annually sent to the depart
 ment stores of our great cities.
 Farmers expect our merchants to pay them fancy price for butter, eggs and poultry, for their pumpkins, potatoes, toma- toes, etc., and then they take the money received from our home merchants and send it to a city department store. There is neither economy nor honor in such manner of doing business. You can write it down in your hat that, as rule, the city de- partment store issa,swindle. Our citizens who patronize them should be compelled to ship their butter and eggs to them. There is not a business man in. town who will not duplicate their prices for the same quality of goods, and he who turns down his home merchantsto patronize these fakirs is far from being a loyal, patriotic and good citizen.
