from Phoenix yesterday.
These steers, together with severai
hundred more, which will come to

They are considered the highest
grade and best finished bunch OF
steers in the entire Alfalfa district,
and were being held for Los Angeles
trade.
In speaking of the beef situation,
Mr.. Tovrea said: Beef from the
ranges is getting too thin for our
best trade.
I'VE have some of the largest steo,
herds in the southwest contracted
for our trade for 1908. Most of
these, however, will not be delivered
until green feed has put them In
better condition,
out of SO many, however, we are
able to select some very good beef,
and these we are slaughteFing for
that class of trade that does nor care
to pay for finished product.
For those Of our customers who
want the best, we will keep a sup

The scheme of j. C. Adams, oi

no means small one. He plans fol
an early winter season by the horses
of the grand circuit and season OF
racing in the early spring by horses
from California on their way to the
eastern tracks Mr.. Adams passed
through Bisbee yesterday on his way
from Douglas to Phoenix.
about six weeks elapse between
the closing of the grand circuit at
Lexington, KY, and the opening or
the territorial fair at Phoenix" said
Mr.. Adams yesterday. ''It is my
plan to arrange for say two weeks
racing in three cities which will give
the horses something to do until the
opening of the territorial fair in the
middle of November.
AFTER the close OF the grand cir
cult and for several weeks following
there is no racing in the Uniteo
States. Dallas and FL Paso, Tex,
may be induced to go in with Bisbee
in this scheme. 1t would give each
city two weeks of the best racing

cities could afford it.
THE racing season for this part
of the country would then wind up
about December / in Phoenix after
the fair. l am glad to hear that. the
business men of Bisbee have taken
I'D the matter in discussion at least
and think if they make the venture
they will never regret it.
Another racing season could
easily be arranged for the spring

and when these horses are taken east
to appear on the eastern tracks. Our
season would not conflict with that OF
California or the east and each city
could have a weak or more of rae

man of Denver, who has been in the

of regaining the use of ais voice, was
out on the street today after having
undergone a severe. but what ap-

Mr.. Currier has been suffering with
a tubercular throat for some years
which involved the vocal chords. No
great change in his condition occur
red until about three weeks ago when
a swelling arose which threatened
the patients choking to death within
few hours time. The operation

among the large blood vessels of the
neck and nerves that supply the mus
cles of respiration was performed by
doctors Wiley and Redewill. The
mortality of such operation is very
high-75 per cent OF patients thus
operated on die.
DR.. Redewill, who performed the
operation, opened up the patient low
down near the breast bone to avoid
the diseased portion of the throat,
and inserted a curved silver TUBE for
the patent to breathe through.

Campbell and proffered several
piece sof silver, which were accepted
by the lecturer.
Chief Campbell will appear before
the council this morning to explain
the case to them. 1t is said that he
has received the endorsement OF May
or Sweeney in the position that he
took yesterday, and that the mayor Is
satisfied that his course of action
was correct.
1t is likely that a suggestion will
be made when the council meets to-
day. that the space on streets that
may be utilized by public speakers,
Salvation Army gatherings, or the
meetings of any street organization,
shall in future be restricted to a
space around the court house square.
It is thought that such action will
preclude the necessity of any arrests
