 Country

News comes from Yuma that an old prospector by the name of w. P. Finnell, with three burros, has dis appeared somewhere in the noun tains north of Bouse and Parker. and his friends in this city fear that he may have lost his life by being bitten by a rattlesnake. or met with some other mishap Finnell was grub-stak- ed together with w R.

They had an outfit of burros. provisions and mining equipment Al ter prospecting together for some time Burn left Finhell and the three burros in the mountains and went to Parker to communicate. with Mr. Mur- dock and get some supplies. Fin nell was to join Burn In Parker within twenty days, but notwithstanding that this time has been up for six weeks. nothing has been heard from the old prospector and his three burros. He was an old soldier and made his headquarters at Sawtelle. at the Sol diers' Home, when not prospecting.

When last seen he was heading for the Bill Williams country. If ay prospector, traveller or any other person has seen or heard anything Of the old man, or his out it of burros, Mir.

Fastest Games of
 Season on Coast

Talk about major league baseball and the fast southern teams, Well, they are fast. but not even on the same side of the street with the qual- ity of ball now being put up by the Pacific coast teams. With a twenCy- four and an eighteeninning game two days ago and a foarteen-inning game yesterday. what more could fan ex- pect? Just put Frank Dillon, Hen Berry and Reilly behind that bunch of coasters and everybody west of the Rockies knows what to expect. Yes terday's stunt was a fourteen-inniug exhibition between Portland and Sac ranento, in which the former turned the trick by terrific hitting. Not iIl the history of baseball have there been so many extra inning games al this stage of the season as in the Pa cific Coast league, and 1t is Of tho major league article. too.

GERMAN MAULER WILL
 TRY BOUT WITH DANE

The July meeting between Battling Nelson and kd Wolgast will be ten round event and will be staged at The Maud Junction pavilion Of the Pacific Athletic club at Los Angeles.
 The plan to make the battle d scheduled forty-five round affair and pull the same off at Vernon was changed upon receipt Of personal telegram from WoIgast, in which the Milwaukee Mauler voiced his decided preference for the shorter route.
 The weight arrangement will be tho lightweight limit. l33 pounds singside. This will. in sli probability bring Wolgast ia close to i29 pounds. giving the champion an advantage of only tour pounds over his rough and ready opponent
 For allowing Wolgast inc ten-round opportunity Nelson is to receive ss, 800 on a win. lose or draw basis. Wolgast for his try against the i'm .perturbable Dane will be paid S1500
 Woigast Is a good card in any city He fights along the same shoulder to-shoulder method employed by the 8attler. and in matching these two lit tie bulldogs of the prie ring McCarey figures that he has secured a most de- sirable bout for Eiks' week.
