 THE COUNTY TEACHERS - Nearly seyenty-five per cent of the teachers of the county met this morn
 ing in the Central Methodist church for the purpose of organizing the County Teachers Institute The meeting had been scheduled for the Central school building, but was adjourned at the last minute to the church. No business was transacted of i'm portance. and the only officer chosen was the temporary secretary, Miss Page. County Superintendent Fulton presided at the meeting and in his us- ual pleasant manner introduced the two speakers of the day. They were Dr. Blome of the Tempe Normal staff, and President Lord of the East State Normal from Illinois. The ad- dresses though brief were in teresting and instructive, and greatly enjoyed by the pedagogues. It was decided, in view of the fact that so many of the out of town visitors wish ed to attend the fair, and they, as well as the Phoenix teachers, were in de- mand at various assemblages and or ganizations in the city that no per association would be organized at the present time.

 MEXICAN STREET FIGHT.-A fight between two Mexicans created some excitement last night at the corner of Adams and Center streets. The two men were showing great pugilistic abilities when intercepted by a passer by. One of the Mexi- cans ran to the street and picked up rock which he intended to use as a peacemaker "pro-tem." Luckily the passer by aforementioned struck his arm just in time to prevent the rock being thrown at the head of the antagonistic party, and thereby saved a police court scene and pos sibly a murder charge. No arrests were made as the participants made their escape before the first automo- bile arrived, and it is said by wit
