Insists Anna Gould Is
Princess De Sagan
Paris Journal Again Declares
They We're Welded Before
Trip to New York

PARIS, April 1s.-The Cri de Paris
insists in its issue of today that the
marriage OF Nine. Anna Gould, formerly
the wife of Count Boni de Castellane,
and Prince Helie de Sagan already has
taken place. The paper announced some
time ago that this marriage had been
celebrated secretly in Germany. To-
day it says:
We are now in a position to COM
plete our information. This marriage
was celebrated secretly in a little town
on our eastern frontier When in New
York Nine. Gould informed her family
that her wedding already was an &C
complished fact, and this is why the
members of her family so quickly as
scented.
we would add that for certain legal
reasons. which delicacy prevents US
from divulging, this marriage can be
broken. This possibly greatly consoles
the families which have been so
crushed by the marriage, but we hope
that they will not by any rude process
trouble the happiness of the young
couple, who during their sojourn in
New York were so much together"

fortable place to roll up in it, should respond to the demands of Arizona hospitality. There is already a nice list of rooms at the board of trade. but there can not be too many. There will be a big ger crowd in Phoenix next week than ever gathered in Arizona before and the visitors must be entertained. Fix the prices right Those who make their living renting rooms can keep them full by listing them at the board room. Those who do it for the sake of hospitality are most appealed to for they are the ones who will neglect it.
 And-by all means, whoever lists a room, as soon as it is rented, telephone the board to scratch it off the list. This will save 9 deal of annoyance for both the room agency and the house. holder as well as the visitors.
 TO THE VISITORS-If you have no rooms engaged and don't know where to go make straight for the office of the board O. trade corner Of Adams street and First avenue. Every citizen can direct you. Rooms of all kinds and prices may be secured there at reasonable rates as long as they last and it is believed there will be enough to last all week.

AFTERNOON
 A PHOENIX HOLIDAY
STORES WILL BE CLOSED AND
 ALL MAY GO TO THE FAIR.
This Arrangement Made In the Inter
 est of Clerks and Other Busy Work
 ing PeopIe-carnival Friday Night.

Friday afternoon is to be a legal hol- iday in Phoenix and everybody is mor- ally bound to go to the fair unless he is blind. paralyzed, suffering of string halt or can't borrow the price Of an admission ticket. It might well be named Phoenix Day" for the sake of convenience, though every day is to be Phoenix day.
 This holiday is called by M. C. Me Dougall, chairman of the business mems committee which took upon it. self the work of street decorations and looking after lot of things there was nobody else to attend to. The com mittee authorized Mir. McDougall to make the announcement when he de- cided upon the most appropriate day The announcement is now made. This is his proclamation.
 On that day it is expected the stores will all close at noon and all employees can attend the fair that day whether they have any other opportunity or not. At this time there is no special program for Phoenix Day" any more than that there is a special program every day differing from all the other days. but it is believed Friday will be as interesting as any day possibly can be. therefore it's selection. It has not been named for the glorificatiOn of Phoenix as a city but as a favor to the working people of Phoenix who will have little opportunity to see the fair and who will be more busy next week than any time, looking after the comfort of out of town visitors.
 There will also be a big street carni- val Friday night of which more will be told later. For the information of those who don't like carnivals, it is announced that one of the rules will be that the street paraders will not be allowed to interfere with pedestrians on the sidewalks.

A MURDEROUS ASSAULT
 IN ST. JOHNS COUNTRY
J. F. LEE WAS cLUBBED NEARLY
 TO DEATH
Warrants Out For Father in law J. M. Ragland and Stepson Cecil Mentzer. The Latter Arrested.

A thing happened in the St. Johns neighbOrhood on Wednesday which the victim, J. F. Lee, thinks was an attempt at murder He came to town yesterday and swore out warrants for the arrest of his father-in-law J. M. Ragiand and Cecil Mentzer, a step son of the latter. Lee. formerly the proprietor of the Gibson stables on West Washington street, called at the court of Justice Johnstone yesterday, bringing eviden- ces of a bloody affray. The first was a badly battered head and a bruised left forearm with which he had warded off a blow with a club. There was a very bloody shirt and a split mesquite club which he said had been split by Mentzer by striking him on the head. Lee said that he had been having a good deal of trouble with his father in- law lately over money matters and Ragland had been trying to bring about separation of Lee and his wife. On Wednesday, Lee said Ragland and MentZer came to his place and met him outside of the house. Ragland asked Lee why he had not paid a cer- tain note which he had given to a man in Phoenix some months before Though Ragland had no interest what ever in the note, Lee took the trouble to tell him that the note had been paid and was already in his possession. He furthermore offered. if it would be of any satisfaction to him, to let him see the note.
 Ragland then called him a liar and ] IL. Is in ahead and aimed a blow at Lee with heavy mesquite club. Lee warded it off but the force of the blow threw him back and before he could recover him self Mentzer again struck him, this time knocking him down. He then stood over him beating him with the club, until he split it, threatening all the time that he meant to kill him.
 Mrs Lee in the meantime came out and begged MentZer to stop striking her husband who was then daZed and almost unconscious. Again MentZer said that he was going to beat him to death. Mrs. Lee ran into the house and returned with a shotgun when Mentzer ran off.
 What happened after Lee was on the ground and stunned by the blows Mentzer was raining upon him is told in a letter from the wife of Lee to the justice of the peace in which she be- lieved that MentZer would have killed her husband if she had not intervened with the shot gun.
 Lee was so badly hurt that he was unable to come to town that day and make a complaint. In making it he offered another possible but highly sensational motive on the part of his father-in-law for wishing him out of the way.
 Warrants were issued for both Ment- ger and Ragland and were put into the hands of Constable Murphy who soon after picked Mentzer up on the street and took him to jail. On the way Mentzer made no other statement re- garding the affair than that there was another side to it.
 The case may come before the grand jury today though efforts were under way last night. among the neighbors of both Ragland and Lee to bring about a settlement which might at least re- duce the case from a felony to a mis- demeanOr.

BROOKLYN A. c. TEAM.

Many of the Brooklyns were out at Reidyille yesterday and watched the game with close interest. They said after the contest was over that if that was the best that was in the All-Wa- terbury lineup the Brooklyn A. C.. team would eat them up, when they clashed together. The Driving park has been leased by the Brooklyns for the season and the team Is practicing steadily and will soon make It's hi tial appearance. Coach Batchelder is bringing the boys along nicely and he says that when they stack up against the All-Waterburys he will prove to that aggregation that they are not the whole thing by any means. Man ager Dunphy has been waiting and watching the rounding into shape of his team and he now feels confident that they can lick any team in the state and to that end he issues the following challenge:
 Sir: The Brooklyn Athletic club football team is now ready to play any team for the championship of the state, the All-Waterburys, Thom- astons and Acorns of Bridgeport pre- ferred. I will meet the managers of any of these teams at any time or place they may name to arrange terms. .H t......

HOLY CROSS PLAYED WELL
Was Cheered by Yale Players for the
 Plucky Game Displayed.

New Haven, Oct. 12-Holy Cross went up against the heavy Yale eleven Saturday afternoon and was defeated Is to O. The score should have been but s to 0, and would have but for unfortunate fumbles by wearers of the purple and because of offside plays which resulted in heavy penalties. 554.
 The Holy Cross eleven was differ ent from that which was battered by Yale last year and defeated 52 to 0. The boys played with snap and repeatedly held Yale and at one time made an onslaught on the line Of blue that looked threatening. This was when Steve Mahoney carried the ball through the Yale line for a big gain. He was stopped by Brides.
 While the Holy Cross team did not place the Yale goal in danger. the purple players made some brilliant gains by individual plays Jones end run of 12 yards was a feature Of the game. Captain Triggs played a great game. Dan Mahoney dis played great headwork and he sur prised the Yale players on several occasions.
 The work of Driscoll at right end was phenomenal during the time he was in the game and he was highly complimented by the Yale coaches. He was obliged to withdraw during the first half on account of prev ious injury to his knees that left them weak. Lawlor who was sub stituted. did equally well, and Joy at left end was not a particle behind the other two ends in the game he was putting up in his territory.
 The Holy Cross ends were right on the spot when the Yale players punt ed and tackled Brides several times holding him in his tracks. He was responsible for one touchdown, how- ever, and played fine game. Jones made an unfortunate tumble in the early part of the game, that resulted in a goal for Yale, but by his phe- nomenal playing later, redeemed himself He injured his left ankle during the second half, and was sent to the side lines. He was given a cheer by the Yale contingent for the plucky game he had played. Burke was called in to fill his position. and he did it we'll.
 Joy was obliged to punt the ball three times from under the goal posts, and at one time from six feet behind the line. Conti, Sweeney, Tobin, Scheid and Roche each played a strong game and when time was called, the Holy Cross players were well satisfied with the showing they had made.

McGrath Beats Flanagan With the 16
 Pound Hammer.

Matthew J. McGrath of the New York Athletic club and John J. Flanagan of the Irish-American Ath- letic club had another interesting duel with the 16 pound hammer at Celtic park, New York, yesterday and the result was new worlds record that is,if the missile used was the correct length and weight and the measurement of the throw proves cor- rect. After the pair of big men had done their best McGraw was an- nounced the winner with a pitch of TIA feet "A inches. Flanagan was only nine inches behind, fact which clearly shows the merits of the com petition. for Flanagan also beat the old record, which was 173 feet 2 inches, made by McGrath last year.
 Simon Gillies of the New York A.. C. showed that he is rounding back into form, for he threw 160 feet 4 inches, and this is his best since he won the English championship. The occasion was the fall games of the Irish American A. A.

MANY INJURED IN GAME
Sanguinary Record by Wesleyan and
 Union.

A sanguinary record for the foot ball season was established at Sch- nectady, Saturday, in the Wesleyan and Union game. Seventeen players were unconscious at different times and five were removed to the hospi- tai Captain Maurice Hammond of Wesleyan was supposed to have a slight concussion of the brain. He was taken unconscious from the field and after he was treated in the hos pital he was removed to his home at Saratoga. A dispatch from there last night said that bruises were his only injuries and he would be able to return to Middletown to-day, Harmon of Wesleyan had a wrenched ankle and bruises and Wright of Wesleyan was badly bruised. Captain Potter of Union had a broken collarbone and Brown of the same college was kicked in the head.
 From the instant the ball was kicked off the players contested every inch of ground bitterly. The game had to be stopped time and again when the players were injured or knocked senseless. After nearly every scrimmage some on was found to have been hurt so seriously that he could not rise from the ground.
 The teams were evenly matched, as is shown by the score of to 0. Straight football rules were followed by the teams. Each team succeed ed in getting the ball to within foot of it's opponents goal only to be held for downs.
