of Richard and Cherry Kearton. the two
Yorkshire men who really originated

Richard Kearton is a great admirer OF
President Roosevelt, whom he considers
one of the best informed practical nat
uraiists in the world, and his first jour

To- Washington Go visit the president,
with whom he long has been in CORE
spondenoe and who is familiar with all
his books No doubt when these two
lovers of nature meet they will be able

THf DEMOCRATIC CLUB
 Mil THURSDAY NIGHT
Brady O'NeiI Was the Chief Attrac- ton and Drew a Good Crowd.

The meeting of the Tempe Demo-
 crate club in the Goodwin opera house
 Thursday evening was quite an enthu-
 siastic affair There was a fairly good attendance and the hall was comfort
 ably filled. It almost assumed the pro-
 portion of a rally though it was not so
 regarded. It was merely a meeting of
 the club to which the public was in vited and as special attraction Brady O'Neill had been engaged for the even ing to deliver a short address. The
 stage was nicely decorated with Amer ican flags. and the picture of MT. Bry- an, being a necessary feature in view of the occasion. was not lacking. The
 stage was occupied by the president
 of the club and a few other lights in local democratic politics.
 Dr E. B. AIoeur was named as chairman Of the meeting and in a few
 words he introduced the chief speaker
 of the evening. Mir. O'Neill. Mir. O'Neill devoted himself for perhaps the space of three-quarters of an hour to one of his characteristic speeches. As might be expected, emanating from such a source it was a typical demo- cratic speech. teeming with democratic phrases and delivered in genuine O'Neill style. He explained the prin- ciples Of democracy from the time of Jefferson to the present date and paid a glowing tribute to William Jennings f Bryan The name Of the presidential candidate was greeted with great ap- | plausS on this and several other occa- sions when it was mentioned during l the meeting MT. O'Neill sought to controvert a few statements that had i been made by d speaker at the recent | republican rally but he erred in at ] tributing these statements to Robert | F.. Morrison instead of Joe Morrison ! who really made them. From a purely I democratic standpoint. Mir O'NeiH's
 remarks were regarded with distinct | favor. He is a good speaker and his
 talk was listened to with marked in-
 terest.
 The second and only other speaker
 of the evening was Frank Lyman of

DISPLAY OF DATES FOR
 IRRIGATION CONGRESS
The Government Orchard at this Place Contributes Twenty-Five Pounds.

One of the finest display of dates ever picked in Arizona or probably elsewhere in the United States. was yesterday brought in from the Govern ment Date Orchard and sent on to Phoenix. The display will there be in- creased by dozen or so punches from the Phoenix experimental farm and the whole exhibit will be sent on to AL buquerque together with other articles making up the Salt River valley eX- hibit.
 The display from the Tempe orchard consisted of twenty-five punches, all of one variety They are fully matured but not yet ripe. They are, however, just in the right stage for shipment and will probably arrive at their des- tination in excellent shape. The punches averaged in weight about twenty-five pounds and were perfect specimen of dates. The date exhibit will be one of the-finest and will show plainly what can be done in this sec tiOn in this line of culture.

PHOENIX PoPuLATIoN.-ou

number of Doan's directories were dis tributed in Phoenix yesterday and at tention was called to the fact Of an inaccuracy in the figures of the popu-
 ation of this city. It was given at 15OO. while that of Tempe was quoted at 2OOO and Tucson at 14.00O. The Phoenix figures were probably typo graphical error rather than a lack of knowledge and were probably meant for 15,O00. However to the rank stranger regarding Arizona cities it might be taken for the unvarnished truth.

GASOLINE POISONING.

The three-year-old son of MT. and Mrs. William Carver had close call from death Thursday afternoon. The little fellow was playing about the house when he got his hands on small bofc4e of gasoline that had been used for cleaning purposes. He drank a quantity of the fluid. though just how much is not known. In a very short time he began to bloat and by the time Dr. Moeur arrived, the baby was in a very critical condition and was barely able to breath. The quick est kind of work was all that saved him. It was a very peculiar case and one that the doctor says is without precedent in his experience.
