WILL COMMENCE CITY
 WATERW9RKs TUESDAY CONTRACT FOR PIPE DlSTRIBU- TON HAS BEEN LET. No Plan to Observe Beginning of the
 Citys Progress.

Unless the plans and anticipations of Engineer Kneipe fail the first actual work on the Mesa water works sys- tenn, which has engaged the attention of the city fathers for the past two years, will take place some time this week and in all probability not later than Tuesday The first dirt to be thrown, which has come to be looked upon as the actual commencing of construction, will take place on the north plaza, where the power pit will be located.
 The contract has been let to Phil Nets for the distribution of the pipe over the streets. which should begin at an early date, as the material has been on the road for a number of days. This is the only sub-contract that has been let so far.
 While it is not understood that any public demonstration will take place at the actual commencement of the construction work of the water works system for the town. yet the mayor should declare it a holiday. or else put off the beginning of the work and make St Patricks day. which is Wednesday, and the time set for the formal dedication of the Chandler building. all in one. A good many propositions have been put up to Mesa and some have been accepted and some have been rejected. but it has been a long time since a matter of any more vital importance has been under taken. Mesa needed a water works as much as a wagon needs a tongue; the town might have gone backwards as well as forward. but it would not have gone along far until it would have run into the ground.
 We ought to have a holiday, or at least formal opening of the com mencement of the building of the Mesa City water works.

HIGH SCHOOL CONTEST
 4 SUCCESSFUL EVENT SISst6 AND TEMPE DIVIDED
 THE HONORS
As Usual the Contest Drew a More
 Than Packed House.

The Student" High school declam- atory contest at the normal audito- rum Saturday evening was merely a repetition of the success of former years. This time Bisbee carried off first honors, Miss Ivah Butler being the winning contestant. Bsbee di- vided honors with Tempe for the To- cal representative, Julius Goodwin won second prize. Julius was handi- capped to considerable extent by an accident that befell him while in Phoenix Saturday morning; he badly wrenched one knee and though he was able to appear Saturday evening. 1t took a good deal of grit and the young man is today on crutches.
 The contest, as usual, drew a pack ed house. Seats were reserved for ticket holders until eight o'clock and by that time the auditorium was well filled. At that hour the doors were thrown open to the public and it was but a moment until all that was left was standing room.
 Before the contest opened, the
 TOoleIS, TOT so they might be termed. filled the air with songs and yells. calculated to encourage their respective favorites.
 The program as prepared by "The Student" was rendered with one or two exceptions. Miss Lucille Fletcher side. the Yuma contestant contracted a severe cold upon her arrival here and was unable to take part, much to the regret of every one.
 The program as prepared by the Student" was as follows:
 Violin-Intermezzo from Cavalleria Rusticana, Miss Cecil Mullen.
 Declamation Wild Zingarillia," Miss Jean Nall, of Phoenix
 Declamation-"The Chariot Race from Ben Hur," Mir. Julius Goodwin, of Tempe.
 Vocal solo-(selected). Florence Stephens.

THE CANTALOUPE CROP WILL BE A SMALL ONE
An Increased Rate Not Encouraging to the Growers.

From present indication there seems to be small probability that any cantaloupes will be planted in this section this season. That is all most certain to be the case unless there is some readjustment in the rate out of Tempe, according to the rumor that now prevails here. Mir. Watson, of the Watson Commission firm of Chicago, who was here last week prepared to offer the Tempe growers a cash proposition for their melons, investigated the rate before meeting with growers. He found that since last year it had just been doubled. This being the case it is evident that Tempe melons cannot compete with those of Yuma and the Imperial valley, where the rate has not been altered. The rate in those places always was a little better than the Tempe rate and with the addi- tional rate, the figure makes ship ments practically out of the ques- ton. Learning this. Mir. Watson made no effort to close deal with the Tempe growers and left town next day. It is rather an unfortu- nate condition of affairs and one that it is to be hoped can be rem edied in some manner.

CANTALOUPE ACREAGE
 SLIGHTLY DIMINISHED
AT MEETING SATURDAY MATTER
 WAS THREsHEo OUT.
BicknelI Has Denied Rumors as to
 Doubled Freight Rates.

At meeting Saturday evening called for the purpose. after a poll of those present. which probably includ- ed half the members of the associa- ton, 1t was determined that the acre age will be very slightly diminished. if any. notwithstanding the impression that it would be greatly decreased on account of the large acreage of sugar beets. The reason for this idea of a diminished acreage probably came about from the fact that the men growing canteloupes would naturally have the soil free for the planting of sugar beets, but it would appear from the reports of the meeting that the canteloupe men are also taking up sugar beets, with but few of them dropping cantelOupes.
 One of the important items of the meeting was the report of K. l.. Num- ford that the rumor which has been going around to the effect that the freight rates to Chicago had been ap- proximately doubled had been posi-
  Bicknell, general freight and passen- ger agent of the s. and P. at Tucson.
 The advices from W. H. Woods. the commission man. who will again han dle Mesa canteloupes in Chicago early in the season, or rather. directly after the close of the season, was to the effect that the acreage be made just as large as possible. According to MT. Woods, he had made a canvass of every other cantelOupe section which would in any way compete with the Salt River valley product and that the acreage was greatly diminished. How ever. late in the year another canvass resulted in the determining that the acreage would not be diminished in competing sections as much as he had at first estimated. He therefore ad- vised the Mesa growers to hold down their acreage somewhat. and at last has advised them to plant about as they did last season. which will ap- proximate in the neighborhood of 525 or $50 acres.

A DRUNKEN MEXICAN
 FELL IN THE CANAL

During the High school contest Saturday evening a drunken Mexican caused a great deal of trouble for Marshall Brown and Dr. Dimes, and was the cause of their missing al most the entire program. During the early part of the program a telephone message was received at the Normal saying that a man had fallen off the M. & P. bridge and was in much need of medical as- sistance. Dr. Dimes being the only physician available, the others all by chance being out of town on calls, responded and was accompanied by the marshal. They hurried from the Normal to the bridge, but there they were unable to find any signs of a man who had been injured. They looked around carefully and on their way back to town discovered what had caused all the trouble.
 It seems that q drunken Mexican, wandering about between the Blinn Lumber yard and the Mill, had fal- len in the Hayden ditch. A passer- by heard him floundering about in the water and came to his rescue. He was just in time, for the Mexi- can was about exhausted and had he been left in the canal a little longer would no doubt have been drowned. He was helped out and taken to a saloon where he was given sufficient care to revive him again. This in cident in some manner caused the rumor that a man had fallen from the bridge and someone, acting on a good impulse. 'phoned the Normal for ,padica1 aid

Dodge & Com pany first attracted notice in Col Hers prize story contest a few years ago. The one of the youngest writers competing, her story, "The Dissemb- Ter" was awarded the fifth prize, and William Allen White. one of the judges, placed it second. Shortly af- ter appeared the clever sketch, "The Letter Written and the Letter Sent, which was reprinted by a large num- Der of magazines and newspapers. She has since been a regular contri- butor to Smart Set" "Appleton's" and other metropolitan magazines.
 By birth Mrs. Urner is a southern CT, which might be inferred from her genuine love for horses. quite ap- parent through oil her stories.

HIGH SCHOOL WON.

The game Saturday afternoon on the Vance grounds between the Lehi Indians and the Mesa High school proved to be rather an interesting con test and resulted in a victory for the locals by a score of 6 to 3.
 The battery for the high school was Winterberger and Morris, while the lineup of the Indian aggregation was SO badly tangled up that it was i'm possible to get anything like an ap- proximate average as to the name of the pitcher and the catcher. Inadver- tently The Republican had no repre- sentative on the ground. and as a re- suit the game was reported by one of the high school boys. When the young man was asked the name of the um- pire the answer was: '1 don't know. sir; but it's that feller who has been around here for two or three months what comes from Missoury'
