The Business Instinct,

A small Detroit boy was given q
drum for a Christmas present, and
was beating it vociferously on the
sidewalk, when a nervous neighbor
appeared and asked: How much
did your father pay for that drum.
my little man."
"Twenty-fve cents, SIR was the
reply.
will you take dollar for it?"
"Oh, yer, sir" said the boy Gag
erly. "Ma said she hoped I'd sell
it for ten cents"
The exchange was made, and the
drum put where it wouldn't make
any more noise, and the nervous
man chuckled over his stratagem.
But to his horror, when he got
home that night, there were four
drums beating In front Of his
house, and as he made his appear.
ance, the leader stepped up and
said, cheerfully: These are my

bought four new drums. Do you
want to give us 81 for them?"
The nervous neighbor rushed In.
to the house in despair, and the
drum corps Is doubtless beating

1t Is told of DR.. ThOrold that he was

he gravely asked the children, (which

When the youngsters gave it up, he
said in the same grave way, which
made them laugh all the more, "Why

Doctors Versus Lawyers.

Most lawyers take a keen delight
trying to confuse medical experts
In the witness box in murder trials.
and often they get paid back IN
their own coin. A case Is recalled
where the lawyer, after exercising
all the tangling tactics without eff.
feet, looked quizzically at the doc.
tor who was testifying and said:
You will admit that doctors
sometimes make mistakes, won't
you?"
"Oh, yes; the same as lawyers"
was the cool reply.
And doctors mistakes are
buried six feet under ground" was
the lawyers triumphant reply.
YES" he replied, "and the law
yers' mistakes often swing in the
air." r."-Philadelphia Public Ledger.

themselves out of their hammocks
unusually early in order to dress
the ship with holiday greens ere
the sun is up.
Usually the gibes for the otfl'
GERS are reserved for the minstre'
show in the evening, but there
have been occasions in the history
of the navy when the bluejackets
played decidedly practical jokes on
their superiors in connection with
the Christmas dinner. For in
stance, at Shanghai, China, a few
years ago, a delegation of the en-
listed men got ashore almost as
soon as the ship dropped anchor in
port, and having fOrestalled the
wearers of gold braid they proceed
ed to corner" the limited market
Of turkeys. Thus they had plenti-
full slices of the light and dark
meat at their spread, while the
ward-room mess had to put up with
not altogether satisfactory sub
stitute. The high prices paid for
fowl on this occasion constitute
but one of many illustrations that
might be cited to prove how lavish
are the bluejackets in their eXpen-.
ditures when it comes to providing
ammunition for the proper observ-
ance of Christmas.
The mischievous nature OF these
boys grown tall crops out in the
character of many of the contests
that take place on Christmas after
noon. There are boxing, wrestling
and fencing contests that are in
deadly earnest, but there are also
sucn merriment makers as egg
races, potato races, three-legged
races, sack races, etc, and finally
there are ludicrous pie-eating con-
tests and similar stunts. A time
honored Christmas prank aboard
Yankee fighting ships is that
wherein a procession of fantastic
ally garbed sailors visits the cap

ARIZONA BUYS PHOENIX FAIR
 GROUNDS

PHOENIX, August 12-Though they do not expect to get back more than 65 per cent of their original invest ment, the stockholders of, the Arizona Fair association at a meeting last night authorized Vice President Stod- dard, in the absence of President Adams, to accept the offer of 1000 made by the territory. and surely the fair grounds will pass into the posses sion of Arizona
 Vice President Stoddard will at once confer with the territorial board of control. which was authorized in an act passed by the last legislature to pay s30,000 for the property free of all debts. The first payment will be s500O, with s10,OO0 more at the end of the first year and s15,000 in two years.
 Stockholders In the Arizona Fair association have carried the burden and expense of keeping the fair grounds In shape for nearly five years. They bought grounds and erected the buildings, and their investment up 10 the present time represents about
Bisbee daily review., 1909-08-15

$3s,0o0.
 At first there was considerable op- position to accepting the territory's offer of $30.0o0 for the grounds and buildings, the estimated value of which is far in excess of that sum. Stockholders, however, decided that to refuse the offer meant to wait two years more at least until there would be another chance to sell to Arizona.
 In the opinion of those who have the best interests of the fair at heart 1t will be much better off in the hands of the territory than owned by indi- viduals. Neither the legislatures have felt like making expectations for i'm, provements nor have the association stockholders felt that they should be compelled to put up all the money for improvements.
 Under the terms of lease given the territory by the fair association Arizona could have the fair grounds nearly twenty years more at nomi. nal rental. It meant to keep the money of the stockholdreJ tied up at a nominal rental. Their only hope of getting their money back was through the increased value of the property In the next twenty years.

GOOD BASEBALL SCHEDULED
 TODAY

What premises to be a hotly con tested and highly interesting ball game one which should draw the fans to the grounds and keep interest up the max imum from the word play until the last man is out, is scheduled to be pulled off on the Warren baseball diamond this afternoon.
 Two teams have ben picked up and fer the sake of names one is to oe called the Regulars and the other tho Yannigans. though why either should claim the name of Regular to the ea- ciusion of the other is hard to deter mine. for there are an equal number Of regular players on the two teams and they have been so drawn as to make things look mighty even as to chances. Each team has one of the regular batteries and the opposing twirlers are sure to be on their metal when they meet today. Royal and Wood are the opposing catchers and an cid favorite. French, who three years ago held down first sack for Bisbee, will again fill that position, this time for the Yannigans. Another of other old-time favorites will he found holding down positions and alto gether there will be no lack of inter esting features to the game.
 The lineup of the two teams was anonunced last night to be something like this, although there may be some change in the batting order CT in the positions:

COMPARISON OF ESTIMATES.
Government Expenses $50, 600, 600
Less Than Current Appropriation.

Thomas p. Cleaves and James c. Courts
clerks. respectively, of the Senate and
House committees on appropriations. have
issued their annual comparison of esti-
mates of appropriations for the next year
as compared with the appropriations
made last year. and also compared with
the estimates for last years appropria-
tons.
The figures are given by bills and show
total estimate for the next fiscal year,
beginning July /, of s97S. 1876 100, as COM
pared with a total appropriation in the
last session of $1.O22. 2.OO1. and total
estimates of that session for 81 O5S, :3S7. sos.
The estimate is more than $4,000, 600 less
than that of the previous session, and
almost $45.OOO.oOO less than the actual
appropriations of that session.
Comparing the estimates for this session
with the appropriations of that, the prin-
cipal falling off is an excess OF 5000, 900
in the army appropriation. more than
$1O,OOO,OO0 in the navy, exceeding SIS, OOO,
OUO for pensions, and something over
Sill. 100000 on the sundry civil bill.
The Post Office Department calls for an
increase of about $1,000, 600 An expendi-
ture of s9,602.2s7 is suggested on account
of rivers and harbors.
