WHAT THE PRESS AGENTS SAY
The Park Theater.

Owing to the rain on Saturday night,
practically the same program that
would have been run then will be re-
peated at the Park tonight. One OF
the pictures shown Friday night was
IA Hot Time at Atlantic City, and
it is certainly one of the funniest con
ceits ever thrown on a screen. Be
sides, it gives one very clear idea OF
the magnitude of that famous summer
bathing resort on the Atlantic Coast.
The pictures are all very clear and the
enjoyment greater in consequence. The
side stunts at the Park are very good,
and these. added to the excellent show
ing Of films, make it the popular mo-
tion-picture resort of the city. One
view will bring natural history and the
American navv-into view, and it draws
from the crowd hearty hurrahs when 1t
is shown.
Another Passion Play.
The Nativity representation will be
repeated this evening at Central Union,
starting at half-past eight. James A.
Wilder's amateur company of expert
tableaux vivanteurs will again pose in
the beautiful series of tableaux that
delighted and impressed the audience
on Thursday night.
The first appearance of Mr.. Wilder 5
amateur Oberammergauans was for the
children. On Monday it will be for
adults. No admission will be charged,
but there will be collection after
wards to defray the expenses of the
costuming and grease paint, for which
the Sunday school of the Central
Union church has gone to no little ex-
pense.
The play will be produced in the
Bible class room annex to the church
1t viii. start promptly at half-pasi
eight, so as to permit everybody to gel
| through with dinner and be down II
the Bible class hall for the rising OF
| the curtain.
| Holiday Week at orpheum.
| All who saw the f'Two Kings" al
| the Orpheum last week were loud II
their praises at the performance whiel
was voted by nearly all to be the bes
yet given by Jack Golden. Tonight tn
bill will be changed again.
There will be big olio of vaudeville
consisting of seven good numbers
among them being one by jack Colder
in which he viii depict a scene from
"Ohver Twist" For the afterplec
the entire company viii appear in tn
farce comedy entitled "Sophena,
which is a burlesque on the celebrates
play ''Sapho.''
The entire bill is a good one an
promises much amusement to the bi
audiences that are nightly attendin
the Orpheum.
| The public are beginning to appre
eiape the good clean performances o
the Golden company, and as long a
the present standard IS kept up, goo
| business is assured.

MORE INTEREST NOW
 DISPLAYED F1R RACES

Interest in the proposition to have horse races on the track at Warren on Labor Day is picking up. No det- mite arrangements have been perfect ed for such races as yet but there was more talk on the subject to e heard about it on the streets yester- day than at any time silence the idea WAS first preached.
 IL was said yesterday that the idea xas to be put through and that there was to be feature race which had been practically arranged for and was to be for side bet Of $500. It Is getting late to get horses from the outside but there is still time to get some and to have entries enough to furnish one good day Of sport.
 When the team of the Bisbee Rifie club returned from Fort Huachuca last Sunday, members stated that Captain Bigelow had asked about the matrer cf Labor Day races and had stated his desire to make entries if such races should be held. With local horses and few outside entries good cards could be made up.

HORSES ID RACE hT
 PHOENIX

B. A. Packard, member of the Te- ritorial Fair commission. was in the city yesterday and was riding his fav. orite hobby. the subject of horse rae. ing and the great races which are to be held at the Fair at Phoenix thi; faY.
 Mir. Packard waAed enthusiast.c over the Copper stakes and says that these two events will produce the greatest entry list of the best horses and will bring about the keenest com petition ever seen in all the south west. These stakes are to be for a purse of s5.oe0 each, one for pacers and one for trotters and keen interest has been stimulated in the two events.
 There will be a least ten entries for each purse" said MT. Packard. and among those entries will be the fastest travellers of both types to ,c .cund in the .n;ntr:.

Among the list of owners who will have their strings at Phoenix and enter in th ? big events are McMahon. Murphy. De- Rider. Deane Durfee and others ot equal prominence. From this you can judge what is to be expected.T
 Further soliciting of contribution s is expected in the near future and prominent interests in Bisbee are ex- pected to be seen on the list of con tributcrs.
 In addition to the horse racing. Mir. Packard is convinced that the fair Is to be greater in all other features as well More interest. he says is bein. shown and he expects 1909 to be the banner year for the Territorial Fair.

AVIATION WEEK 1. DRAWS CROWD ID RHEIMS

RHEIMS. Aug. 19.-Rheims is filling up rapidly with visitors from all parts of the world for aviation week.
 It is said that one of the surprises will be appearance of a mysterious aeroplane built along the lines of the Wright machine which has been used successfully in a number of secret flights near Paris. This aeroplane takes to the air immediately without running over the ground or manng use of outside force.
 Farman. Sommer, Fournier and Gibior are among the aeroaauts who arrived at Rheims today.
 Glenn Curtis. an American aviator made flight of four minutes duration here today. and the spectators saw three aeroplanes flying at sunGown today at the same time. The other machines were those O. Tissandier and Demarest.
 The crowd cheered wildly when Curtis. on meeting Denaarest at right angles on the same level lifted his machine and gracefully scared over Demarest's aeroplane.

TAFT ID GROSS DESERT LAND
 Al NIGHT

Governor Sloan feels gratified that the itinerary of President Taft so far as it applies to Arizona, has been modified. Instead of the chief execu- tive of the nation after he leaves Los Angeles, passing through the desert regions in the day time, the plan is to have the Southern Pacific carry him to Phoenix in the night time. arriving at the capital city of Arizona at an early hour of the morning. He will then be permitted to see the beautiful fields of alfalfa and a vast area of the granary of Arizona, the Maricopa & Phoenix and the S. F.. P. & P. lines cutting through miles of a cultivated and improved belt of land.
 After leaving the capital city, the typographical conditions to Prescott will also be agreeable, the flora of the desert being at its best. while the pine clad mountains around this city will be witnessed, in all presenting a panorama of the country that will be pleasing. If trip through the terri tory by either the Santa Fe or the Southern Pacific, followed as original ly planned. the presidential party would form a misconception of the country and its industrial conditions. but by cutting through on north and south lines as now proposed. the true character of a great portion of Ari- zona will be witnessed, resulting pos sibly in enhancing substantial political conditions at an opportune time, or when the statehood question is to be presented for solution at the coming session of congress. Fortified as President Taft will be by personal inspection of the country and a famili- arity with its industrial life. he will be in position to speak intelligently and emphatically upon his return.
 Governor Sloan sincerely regrets, however. that the more populous cities of Arizona will be omitted from the presidents itinerary, which 1t has been found impossible to change from the fact that the Grand Canyon is specifically mentioned as an ob- jective point in Arizona for the presi- dent to visit. and this will not be de viated from. Albuquerque is likewise provided for. and from that point Tevas will be reached, where the President will spend several days with his brother. Under these con ditions it will be impossible for Presi- then zig-zag back over the same routes dent Taft to visit the Canyon and twice, which would shatter his dates and consume several days of time 1 not provided for. It is unfortunate that | other large cities of Arizona cannot be routed, where splendid conditions are to be seen in all lines of com mercial rating and mineral advance ment.

ARIZONA RATES ARE SUBJECT
 OF INQUIRY

Prescott, August 19.-"Until the commission meets I cannot say whrt action will be taken, but our policy has been to lay before the railroads only such matters as are well ground ed and can be taken before the inter- state commerce commission win hope of success in the event of the railroads refusing to meet our suggestions
 Chairman Sims Ely of the Arizona railway commission made this state ment when asked what effect the re- fusal of Arizona passenger agents iu session in Los Angeles to reduce the passenger rates on Arizona lines would have
 Recently the Arizona commission re- quested the lines operating in this territory to make reductions of from one half cent to one cent on the Fl Paso & Southwestern and one cent on all the other lines. The effect of this would have been to make a uniform rate of three cents a mile on the. main lines and four cents on the branch lines.
 At the time the request was made the railroad officials promised to take up the reductions asked at the meet ing of passenger agents to be held n Los Angeles. This was done yester- day with the result that the request was turned down.
 Chairman Ely stated that he does net feel like giving out any formal statement of the intentions of the commission until he has conferred with the other two members, which will be the next time the commission meets in Phoenix.
 Elyis statement that the policy Of the commission is to present only such matters to the railroads as are well grounded and likely of success if carried up to the interstate commerce commission can be taken to indicate that the interstate commerce commis sion can be taken to indicate that the commissioners will at the proper time lay the matter before the higher body and ask for lower pas senger rates on Arizona railroads.

 B|spEE

A Bisbee party had an exciting and dangerous experience while going to Tombstone on Tuesday night. The party consisted of Miller and Williams local attorneys and Mrs. Miller. The attorneys were going 10 Tombstone to file bankruptcy proceedings against the Arizona Bar and desired to have an early morning filing and therefore left here in the evening not expecting such a storm as later came up.
 Leaving here in the neighborhood of o'clock, they drove up the can- yon and to and over the divide and were overtaken by darkness and storm The road crosses the bed Of the creek a number of times and at one of these crossings they became confused in the darkness and followed the bed of tie creek instead of the road. This ted them at length into a narrow place between high banks and here the waters came down upon them rising g above the body of the rig and drench- ing the occupants The waetr came upon them with surprising suddenness and gave no opportunity to avoid 1t. the rig being in harrow defile. The stream caught up and swept away tte bag in which he had his papere and also his cane which was beside him. In dense darkness they managed to stop and the two men made their way to shore and found the Price place. Here they obtained a hand torch and returned to the rig Mrs. Miller was then carried ashore, rocks were moved, the horse and rig were turned ami with difficulty the animal was led up less steep part of the bank.
 From Prices the road was again found and the journey continued the party arriving. drenched to the skin. cold and weary. at Tombstone long after midnight.

RETURNING VISITOR
 TELLS OF HOT SPELL

D. T. Greene. of Cananeea, was in the city yesterday returning from trip which he took to Chicago and brings back with him repofts ,cf the intense heat which has 6sdh afflict- ing the east. He stated that ,n Chi ecago and in St Louis all who could were getting away and that only the 1lost necessary business matteres we-e Icing attended to.
 T can tell you I am glad to set lack" said Mir. Green. This country is good enough for me and I belieye our climate is the best on earth. We never suffer from the heat as they have been suffering in the east and VIC always have ccol nights. This climate is all we have 8 right to ask"
 Mr Green said it was certainly hot in Chicago, but found St Louis worse. there being nineteen deaths the day of his arrival there. Kansas City he found a. little hotter and more disa- greeable than any of the other places he visited.
 Speaking of crop conditions he saie that he believed reports of damage were exaggerated Through Illinois. Missouri and eastern Kansas as he saw conditions from the train there vas some damage but not what he ex- -pected to see. In southwest Kansas there had been rains and here tie crops all looked fine and showed i.f- tie signs of damage Altogether he t'd not believe the crop losses were anything like what telegraphic ie- ports here wodid seem to indicate.

TRAIN SERVICE IS BETTER
 BUT LATE

Traffic was resumed with some de. gree of regularity by the Southwest ern railroad yesterday although the schedule was not carried out on time. The morning train was an hour or more late from the east and the same is true of the morning train from tse west. But when this train did 1r- ally arrive 1t brought a number of be- lated passengers who had been on the road from Los Angeles, some of them since last Monday, and the returning Bisbeeites were happy at finally reach Ing their destination after their long wait at Indio on the Southern Pacific line.
 Here was where they first discover ed that the Southern Pacific was n trouble and here was where taey stay- ed during the tedious wait for the r,- pairing of the road bed so that trains could get them through to Benson.
 All spoke highly of the way the, were treated and cared for by the raiI- road company, but all had found th> delay tedious and exasperating. never, theless, despite the fact that all nos eibie arrangements for their comcrt were made. The trains left Ipdio n, Wednesday afternoon but proxrex- was slow and another delay was occ,L stoned at Yumc where rainfall q. over three inches had caused a rap.s rise in the Colorado.

OPPOSES RAISE
IN LEMON TAX
SENATOR FLINT WILL HELP
CALlFORNIANS
New Workers Begin Campaign to Pre-
vent Increase in Tariff on Citrus
Product-Trust Alleged
by Exchange
Especlal to The Herald.l

WASHINGTON, June Ex-senator
Flint has just learned that the tariff
committee of the New York fruit ex-
change has begun a campaign against
the increase of the lemon tariff, and
that it is urging fruit dealers every
where to circulate a petition to senators
to have the duty kept at the Dlngley
rate of 1 cent a pound.
Flint believes many dealers will stand
by the California growers rather than
by the importers, and he will nave
counter petition circulated among them.
He also will have the California
growers send on facts and figures snow
ing the actual profits they have made
to prove the claim of exorbltant pronts
are fallacious.
In declaring against the new rate
their circular says:
1.-THE fruit jobbers in New York or
other eastern ports will be obliged to
81 a box
"Chicago dealers will pay $4 to $4.50,
while dealers in the Missouri river val
lev and the west can expect to pay SO
to S5.5O for the lemons they purchase
at all seasons Of the year, and during
the summer prices will reach an alti-
tude heretofore unknown to the
trade"
Reference is made to the California
citrus fruit trust" and other loose,
misleading and false statements are
made.
IT is also asserted that there is a
proposed combination between Califor-
MIA and Florida growers.
No effort will be spared by all friends
of california to combat this latest eff
fort to harrass the lemon growers.
