THE OPPORTUNITIES
 OF THIS SECTION
As J. H. Hale Sees Them After Some Practical Experience.

It's a shame the way people in this country neglect their opportunities, :" remarked J. H. Hale, in conversation with the writer a few evenings ago. This observation was called forth by the fact that within the past week he has received several large standing orders from different firms in the ter ritory for tomatoes, which he was un- able to fill. MT. Hale is a practical truck garden man. He has now been giving the business a trial in Arizona and from his experience, he is confi- dent that if the people in this section would take hold of the business there is no reason why they should not be able to supply the territorial demand instead-Of depending upon California for, by far the greater part of the sup ply.
 This season he has under cultivation three quarters of an acre of tomatoes and for two weeks picked 400 pounds daily. He finds a ready market local ly. and in outside points and has been shipping to different camps during this time. He has had more orders than he could possibly fill and has been re- ceiving new orders from time to time. two of these coming by express and calling for ten boxes per day as a standing order
 The profit in this work is immense and MT. Hale estimates from his ex-

 Be Given in Mesa.

The Earl Burgess company, which is now completing a successful western tour, will appear at the Vance audi tOrium tonight in one of it's best melo- dramatic productions "The Queen of the White Slaves" This play is a novel departure from the hackneyed and time-wOrn plots of the usual con- ventional melodrama and tells a CO., herent and well known story.
 The plot relates to the abduction of beautiful and refined young woman by agents of the Terrible Nine" A San Francisco branch of the infamous Highbinders her rescue through the instrumentality of a brave detective. his marvellous escape from a horrible fate, and his rescue by another young woman, who herself had been stolen and taken to China by this same gang. There are many subsidiary characters, all of them true of this great play, a double love story, and genuine comedy free from all semblance of grossness. The scenic invesiture is exceptionally good and no local theater- gOers can afford to miss the heart-stirring scenes of the chamber of death, dead mans corridor and the raft in the middle of the Pacific ocean.

SNAKES AS ENEMIES OF FOUL
 TRY BUSINESS.

L. L. Clifford, who is engaged in the poultry business here, has been rather unfortunate recently in getting more than his share of the depredations committed by reptiles. Several days since. he lost two flyers through this agency, and on Monday night last an- other gopher snake entered his hen nery and killed four more of the young chickens. Mir. Clifford was asleep not far from the scene of action. and was awakened by a commOtiOn among the chickens.
 He took a lantern and hastily made his way to the hen house and discov- cred a large snake in the act of de- vouring one of the chickens. Besides the one which the snake was swallow ing. three others were lying near which the reptile had killed. MT. Cliff ford sincerely hopes that this is the last visit which he will receive from the snake tribe this season

it was the sense of the meeting that new policemen would be appointed by Mayor Barnett to take the place of the old ones.
 The committee which was appointed sometime since to investigate the ce- ment york done. on the streets and . gutters of the city, reported that there were several low places in front of O. g.

 The arc light now located on the corner of Center and Main streets was ordered moved to the corner of Morris and Main.
 In renewing the lease with MT. Horsley on the city park property it was decided to renew this every month, in view of the fact that the city will probably plant the park to trees in the near future. On this con- dition the lease was renewed. MT. Horsley to pay $4.25 per month with one-fourth share of water.
 The street commissioners were ask ed to confer with the street committee in regard to taking away the surplus water which fills the ditches on Rob- inson street. during the rains, and which as conditions now are. is all lowed to stand until it becomes more or less unhealthy.

HOW THE WORD "TfMN"
 SUPPLAN1ED "RMAN"
A Matter Recalled by ne "Arizonan" Controversy.

Governor KibbeySin his interesting discussion of thf word "Arizonan" cites. as an autFrity the word Tex an" Until 1s5, the word Texas" was never sen in print. It was al ways "Texiai." and presume that I am to sonlb bextent, responsible for the change. fhe older settlers of Texas were mStly Mississippians. Alabam- ians. Kntuckians. Georgians, etc. and the tfmination ian was very dear to tlern. About 1869 or 1870. Colonel L. 4 Du Pre-, who was then on the edtorial staff of the Memphis Appeal, a a/weekly paper published at Mem .his, Tenn, made an overland trip Texas, giving to his paper a rosy description of the country and it's resources. He was a brother of my mother, and of course, made us a visit. I was then a boy about grown and native of Texas. While writing one morning he turned to me and asked which should it be "Texian' or Tex an" Without a moments hesitation I replied Texan
 In the next copy of the Memphis Appeal I saw the word Texan in print for the first time. This paper was at that time the most popular of any throughout the southern states. and it always afterwards adhered to that form. stAG1
 Afterwards Colonel De Pre- was an associate editor of the Austin States man, the leading paper of Texas at that time. and published at Austin, the capital of the state, and there con tinued to use that form. War was at once made on him by the many coun- ty papers. they insisting that "Texian" and not Texan" should be adhered to. I remember that the editor of my home county paper, the Bonham News took it almost as a personal grievance. One by one, however, the many county papers fell in line with the Austin Statesman. recognizing it as an au- thority. The form Texan being backed by the leading paper of the state and by the Memphis Appeal, it was soon generally accepted.

THAT SNAKE YARN.
It Goes to Prove That Cat Has More
 Than One Life.

It has been quite satisfactorily dem onstrated that a cat has more than one life. and may possibly have nine or ten, as tradition says. Readers will remember that in yesterdays paper it was stated that the C. w Miller cat died from the effects of a side-winder bite received in the jaw early Tuesday morning. MT. Miller told the story himself and vOuched for it's authenticity. He says that he saw the cat die as a result of the bite, nevertheless, yesterday morning the self same cat appeared at it's usual haunts in its usual state of health and seemed to suffer none from the effects of the bite

IMPORTANT MEETING
 OF THt CITY COUNCIL
Bills Submitted and Approved-Other Business Disposed Of.

The city council met in regular ses- sion in the town hall on Tuesday evn ing last, the members that were pres ent being. Mayor J. H. Barnett, COun- cilmen Cerney, Stapley, Palmer, Klein man, and City Clerk A. A. Jones and Marshal Peterson.
 After the reading of the minutes of the previous meeting by the clerk, the same were approved. and the matter of special policemen for the town was taken up and the adYisability of ap- pointing new men to take the places of those whose term of office had eX- pired, was also discussed. Upon the suggestion of Marshal Peterson, and a majority of the council men present,

form turned over to the ordinance committee.
 It is generally expected that the committee will report on the proposed ordinance at the next regular meeting, a week from tonight. Likewise, it is generally thou; l;ht that vote taken on the subject will result in the passage IOf the ordinance. A thing of this
 kind, however, can never be foretold with absolute accuracy; it is merely a matter of guess work, based on street talk. Nevertheless, there is good reason to suspect that a majority of Ithe members of the council will cast their vote in favor of the proposed or dinance. There is much less OppOsi- tion to the movement now than there has ever been before. This is partial ly for the reason that Phoenix and Mesa have both taken the same step and the public generally agrees that it is time for Tempe to fall in line. Even the saloon men are making no active fight in the matter. On the contrary, most of them are in favor of the move or are at least passive. They realize that if it fails to pass there is a strong possibility that a strenuous effort will be made 10 form a local option district. Their fears are well founded, for already it is had upon good authority that a move is on foot, in case the matter should fall down in the council, to form local option dis trict of Scottsdale, Tempe and Alma. Under these circumstances. an cleo ton would be almost certain to carry with the required two-thirds majority, for Scottsdale is totally dry and Alma Is almost so.

As the time grows nearer to the date of the next regular council meet ing, speculation grows stronger as to whether or not any action will be taken in the matter of closing saloons here on Sunday and as to what action will be taken if the matter is brought up at all. It will be remembered that at the last regular meeting an ordi- nance was presented closing the sa- looms on Sunday and it was in due

woman believes in civic improve

sorts call for time that can not be
spared for mere aesthetic purposes
so that all can not devote their time
to a public movement for civic i'm

Editorial Comments on the Judgeship

Attorney William A. Grimshaw
has been selected by Wenatchee re-
publicans to enter the race for supe-
rior judge against Frank Reeves, the
democratic (non-partisan) aspirant
to that honor. Both are strong men
| in their individual parties, but it is
highly probable that the direct pri-
mary business with not interfere
much with party lines, and that, this
being a presidential year, the repub-
lican (non-partisan) candidate will
have, if anything, a stronger pull on
the judicial Office than the democratic
(non-partisan) candidate. Mr. Grim
shaw is highly spoken of as a good
lawyer and upright citizen, and will
doubtless give Mr.. Reeves a good
