 In today's game the umpires were alternated and both Powers from the valley and Grabb for the Prescott team umpired in a manner which was highly satisfactory to both teams

LED WITH A HOME RUN
Steam Was all Spent in the First Dash---The Morning Weathertoo Cold For Work and Double Header Pro- gram Was Abandoned.

Prescott. May 23.-(Special) 1.-The hopeful expectations of the Salt River valley fans were not disappointed to- day. as the first game played here was a victory for the lads from the valley. The score was twelve to eight, the game being won in the ninth inning. The original program of a double header was not carried altitude was too cold to permit a ball game being played with any comfort in the morning. The game was pitched by Cuber for the Phoenix team and his work was up to the standard which he has maintained throughout the season thus far Nor ris behind the bat appeared in the best form that he has yet shown this season. The game was witnessed by a big crowd and a large crowd is expected at the game tomorrow as a number of the sporting fraternity are coming in from the mines for miles around to witness the bouts be- tween Kilrain and Sullivan. which will be given before the Prescott Athletic club tomorrow night.
 It seems to be the regular order for the team from Phoenix to leave the chestnuts in the fire until the last inning and then to rake them safely out after giving all of their followers a scare. Following such precedent, which they established in their last game with Tucson. the val ley team made a poor start, letting the Prescott bunch take the lead in the opening innings. To add to the discouraging circumstances the first man up for the mountaineers led off with a home run over the fence, a thing which would have taken the heart out of most pitchers with no more age or experience than Cuber. But the Mesa boy pitched stronger as the game continued and in the latter innings was practically unhit- able.
 Long hits were frequent in the game. Rudolph. Warner. Glow and Spaulding made hits good for two sacks. while Warner and Whitmer each plugged out a three -baSger. On the Prescott side Miller made a home run and Mitchell got long hit that was good for three bags.

Rabies By Dog MuxxIes,


Atlanta. Ca If plan for muzzling
dogs for the period Of one year, sug-
gested by DR.. y. Edgar Paullin, In
charge Of the PaSteur department OF
the state board Of health. In paper
read before the Georgia Medical AS
sociation at Macon, is carried out by
Legislative enactment during the COM
ing session OF the general assembly,
1t is believed that rabies and hydro
phobia can be practically stamped out
in the state Of Georgia in short
time.
DR.. PauIin's address was received
with great enthusiasm by the mem
bers Of the association, and resolu-
ton Of Dr. Eugene Smith Of Atlanta
to authorize the committee OF the as
ISOLATION on public policy and legis-
latiOn to support and strongly urge
the passage OF law at the next ses-
sion of the legislature for the muz-
cling Of all dogs was passed by unan-
imous vote.
The alarming increase Of rabies in
the state during the past year makes
necessary some such legislative en-
actment as that suggested by DIR. Pau.
lin, more than 500 cases Of rabies
communicated to persons by the bites
Of rabid dogs were treated by him
in the PasteEr department OF the
state board Of health during 1908. This
number does not include those (for it
is sad to relate that there are such).
who ignorantly rely on the supposed
power Of mad-stones and die In the
vain search for relief from such
methods.
So thoroughly did the paper read
by DIR. Paulin voice the sentiment
Of the association that vote Of
thanks was passed by the organiza-
ton, with the request that the adj
dress be published in such form that
1t may be disseminated broadcast to
every nook and corner of the state.
That rabies is rapidly on the In
crease throughout the state OF Geor
gia and throughout the entire nation
cannot be doubted. This appears to
be conclusively proved by recent
report Of the United States Public
Health and Marine Hospital Service
on the subject Of hydrophobia. Dur
ing the past year, DR.. PauIin has ex.
amined the heads of between 500 and
600 dogs, fully 90 per cent Of which
showed unmistakable signs Of rabies.
The muzzling Of all the dogs in the
state for one year, 1t is claimed, viii
practically wipe out rabies In the
state. In this particular it is sug-
gested that each city sell muzEle
to the owner of every dog instead
of charging a dog tax and in this
way as much revenue can be raised
as by the tax system and much more
good can be accomplished.
During one year all the cases Of
rabies in the state would be developed
and exterminated by this method, 1t
is claimed, If vigorously enforced
