A NOBLE EFFORT.

With two men down and the fans feel
ing blue,
Sullivan came up yesterday and show
ed what Joe could do.
The first one over looked like a wide
ball,
And when Jump yelled strike, how
the fans did squall.
The next one over looked the same
way,
But that is not what the Umpire would
say.
Joe braced himself and leaned a little
back,
And when the next one came over we
heard the bat crack.
The ball went flying to centre fielder
Moore,
Who it seemed for awhile would let
it go.
But just when we were happy and fix
ing to shout,
The Umpire yelled, come in, Joe, you
are out.
Umpire, though our hits were scat
tered,
Though our feld-dsfense vas shat
tered,
Little had these details mattered,
On thy head s the guilt.

FUEL SUBSTITUTE
Peat Brlqettes Used For Mexico Fnel
 Will Save Their Wood.

Word comes from the City of Mexico that an American company has undertaken the manufacture of briquettes from peat. The increas- ing difficulty of supplying the capit- al city of the Republic with wood from neighboring forests whence its fuel has come since the days of Cortez. has led to this project of utilizing deposits of peat which have long been known to exist in the vicinity.
 Eighty years ago Humboldt de- scribed magnificent forests within reach of the City of Mexico. To- day the region supports only a sec ond growth of little value. The change has been brought about by wood cutters and charcoal burners who have stripped the land and left it to reforest itself if it could, or to relapse into waste. Thus ne- glected, the land could not grow

Editor Sun:
 would like to reach the general public through your columns, and to state our case to the many friends and acquaintances who yearly wander to and fro from the sky light plateau to the land of the Phoenician.
 For the past seven years we have been advocating road from Schnebly's on Oak Creek, via Bell Rock and Fry Park to Camp Verde, thereby shortening the distance be- tween Flag and Camp Verde by twelve or fifteen miles. With the approval of Chairman Gregg of the board of supervisors. we went south last fall with the country road outfit, and started a subscrip-' tion fund for this road, headed by D. E. Schnehly, one who knows well the importance of "'the one thing needful" in all business mat ters, with Sl00. E. s. Gosney fol. lowed with $50, John Loy, with S25, Charles Strahan with S7.50 and yours truly with $25. With this amount we presented the matter to Mir. Gregg who advanced $150 county funds which made total of $357 50. We eommenced work on February l6th, last, working about twenty-five days.

4 DtSGRACED BENCH.

THE freeing Of Abe Reui and eX-
Mayor Schmitz by the Judges OF the

has justly raised a storm OF indigna-
ton These men blackmailed the
French Restaurants and Schmitz with
held The license until they paid Ruef
the tainted money. The Court held
that as a license to sell liquor was not
property, no crime had been commit
ted. Then undor the same ruling &
license to blackmail issued from the
Court is not property. etc, etc. 10 the
nauseating end OF the legal bubbles
which are used TO free two rascais,
one selI-confessed
II now transpires that the judge o.
this bench who gave this inIa-4Iu,-s
decision are related by marriage to
men in the high walks OF life whom
the graft prosecutq's are after.
This is the real milk i'll the cocoa
nut and everybody knows IT, They
are merely striving to keep their bool
ling relatives out Of Jail.
When public opinion is sufficiently
aroused the people OF San Francisco
will rise in their fury ana demand an
honest judiciary.
The Judges OF the courts in Cali
fornia are notoriously corrupt. From
the petty tribunals up 10 the Supreme
Bench. which has had a most ulsav-
Dry reputation.
These judges are we'll known and
the prostitution OF their Offices for
money is notorious and discussed on
the street corners.
People cite cases where such 3
judge changed his opinion over night
for $500, 900. and that scuh a judge
never gives decision against a banl

That such judge is owned by sucf
a corporation, and such judge by
another. and they are in the pay o.
the people ostensibly, but really retain
ed by the corporation who uses then
as m3re puppets. 1t is not necessar,

MACHINE THE BEST WITNESS.
Fifteen Hundred Pound Machine
BrOuQht Into Court.


In the case of T. H. Booth in
the Durham superior court last
week the machine on which he
was working when he was hurt,
for which he was asking for
damage in the sum $4,000, was
brought into the court room as a
witness, and when the presiding
judge had looked over the
machine and saw how it worked
the suit was dismissed.
The case was one in which T.
H. Booth was asking damage
from the Darlington Lumber
Company in the sum mentioned
above on account of injuries he re-
ceived while running the
machine. The working of the
machine and the fact that Mr..
Booth knew about it was brought
out and upon this evidence the
case was non-suited.
An appeal was taken, however,
to the higher court and the case
will be fought out before the
court as to certain
points of law in dispute.
