HUMANE oOSIGir SS0C Cio- MISSEO.-Justice of the Peace Parker yesterday dismissed the case against Bert Bryan, brought by a member of the Humane society who saw Bryan riding his horse down First avenue with another man mounted behind him. and ordered Bryan 70 dismount. IL was testified in the justice court that the horse was walking slowly with no bru- tality on the part of the riders, and it was further testified that the animal was being broken for the use of little children. who frequently ride double" but who do SD at great risk unless the horse is trained for this practice. In dismissing the case Justice Parker eX- pressed his disapproval because the matter was brought into court, stating that there are numerous incidents each day on the streets of Phoenix which are far more needful of the at tention of the Humane society.

The riders will be absolutely forbidden to rake their mounts with the spur or in any other manner to inflict unnecessary punishment while endeavoring to mas ter the animals. MT. Bryan is now member of the Humane society and he will personally supervise the events and see that nothing verging on bru- tality takes place during the rough riding events. Any rider attempting to violate the rigid instructions given for this purpose will be compelled to dis mount. It is intended to make the sports of the afternoon clean, interest ing and typical of all that is best in western horsemanship, and those who attend the show will be spared the un- pleasant sights which were a part of the old-time tournaments when steer tying was a chief feature of the enter tainment. wild horse race will be | an extremely interesting feature of the day and will be the first event of the kind ever given in Arizona

FINE ORANGES-W P Cooper yesterday brought to the board of trade another cluster of fine navel oranges. to be sent to Los Angeles for the display in the Southern Pa cific office. There are only three or anges in this cluster, but they are very large and fine ones. Mir. Coop CT. who also contributed a large cluster q few days ago. is the only citrus grower who has thus far re- sponded to the request for display fruit. Only two or three boxes are required altogether. and it would seem that several of the local orange people might be able to contribute little cluster of fruit each to this good cause. They probably would if approached personally. but have over looked the matter in the rush of other business.
 MRS. RoUNDTREE'S SIDE OF IT. Mrs. Roundtree, who has been men toned ip connection with the kidnap ing of her little daughter. Caroline Sheehan. from the Crttenton home. called at the office of The Republican last night to say that she has been mis- represented by the newspaper reports of the affair She said that the child had been sent to the home by Judge Doan at her own instigation. At that time she was employed at the Copper Queen hospital as a nurse. She could not have the child with her and could exercise no control over her at the place where she had left her. The child refused to go to school and the attention of the truant officer was at tracted to her It was at first proposed to send her to the reform school. but Mrs. Roundtree said that she was ad- vised against that. She therefore ap piled to the court for an order commit tting the child to the home. The time of the commitment would expire in the coming May. Since then Mrs Round tree said that she had found employ ment in a place where she could care for the child, and for that reason she sought to get possession of her

JONES GREAT SUCCESS

What Happened 10 Jones" was

ling and iudicrous situations with a
dialogue containing some OF the wit
tiest jokes filled with startling and
climaXcs; scenery and cos
tuning the equal OF which is seldom
seen on an amateur stage, combined
with acting much better than that of
a majority OF travelling troupes make
the play one that has not dull mo-
ment and the best performance seen
in Reno for many years.
Too much cannot be said in favor
of tae members of the cast. Their
work last night showed great dill
gence and close application in the
preparation of the piece. They NOV
ed and acted with an ease and grace
seldom seen in any except profess
sional troup@s.
This company will present the play
at the Carson City Opera House next
Saturday evening. the seats for the
same now being on sale at the Null

w. P. DIVISION
POINTS

A schedule issued by the Western
Pacific divides the 92719 miles OF
their line between San Francisco
and Salt Lake into six divisions, as
follows:
san Francisco division, from San
Francisco to North Tesia Junction,
near Stockton. 90.32 miles.
Sacramento division, from North
Tesla Junction to OrOvile, 1l4.GI
miles.
North Fork division, from Orovilie
TO Spanish Creek, a distance of 1910
miles.
Sierra Division, from Spanish
Greek to Deep Hole, Humboldt Coul-
ty, Nevada. 1892 miles.
Humboldt Division from Deep Ho..
to ElkO, 236, so miles.
Salt Lake division, from ElkO ID
Salt Lake, Utah, 26O24 miles.
The length of these divisions is
determined by the character of the
road. especially as to grade and the
curves, everything being taken in con
sidration that would effect the ability
of a train to cover the division withil
a certain time.
There is 250-miie stretch of road
between the Flower Lake tunnel,
in ElkO County, and the Antelop"
summit in Humboldt County, where
the maximum grade is GA per cent.
The North Fork division contains the
| per cent. grade needed to cross
