For conven- fence sake the territory was divided into ten districts. and the cities Of Bisbee, Douglas, Clifton. Tombstone. Mcronci. Stafford and Benson com priscd the sixth district in which Miss Akard was a contestant.
 The trip offered to the winners in the various districts is a very pleas ant one indeed The ten winners will be gathered in Phoenix some time in June, and with a chaperon will start or their trip. Several days will be spent in Los Angeles and San Fran cisco on the way to Seattle, and the various points of interest in and around these cities will be visited by the young ladies. at the expense of the Gazette They will always stop at the best hotels and everything pos silbe for their comfort and enjoyment win be done.
 Miss Akard and her friends in this city are delighted at her victory. as she worked hard and earnestly since the beginning of the contest.

 Miss Bagby of Bisbee, was Miss Akard's closest second in the sixth dis triet and a heated but friendly rival ry has existed between them since the opening of the contest. Miss Bagby was among the first to con gratulate Miss Akard upon her vic tory. and although naturally rathei disappointed, was nevertheless de lighted that a Bisbee young lady had been the winner.

Buxton Gage and Hennessey, that work would be com, meneed at once upon a baseball park Co be located at the southern end of the vista at Warren. and that the work would be rushed to completion, probably within the next thirty days
 The site selected is ideal for q ball ground and also offers excellers transportation facilities from all parts of the Bisbee district by way of the electric cars.
 A large force of men will at once be put at work leveling and scraping the ground, erecting the grandstand, which will have a seating capacity of l500. and building a higa board fence around the field.
 The baseball park. when completed if present plans are carried out. will be one of the finest in the southwest and one that Bisbee can well feel proud of
 Bisbee already has an excellent bal team, although recently organized, and before another month has passed they will be in a position to secure games with teams from ether parts of the territory. with the assurance that the contest will be upon one of the finest diamonds in the territory.
 At the meeting yesterday it was agreed tha Colonel Powell should stand all expenses incident to the building of the park, but later on when the grounds were turned over the association should stand part Of the expense. Just what pro rata ci the cost the association will pay is a matter that has not as yet been de cided. but will be within a few days
 Mir. Powell also stated that he i would furnish employment for half the men on the team if the Copper Queen company would look after the balance Cf tnem

SEWER CONNECTIONS;
 MANY HAVE BEEN MADE
However More Stringent Or dinance Win Compel All to
 Connect With Sewer

The time allowed by the council for residents of the fire district of the city to connect with the city mains has expired, and. according to Sani- tary Inspector Elliott, with very few exceptions the ordinance has been complied with. In the near future an even more stringent ordinance will be drawn, however. This will compel all persons living within the city limits to connect with the sewerage sys- tenn.
 The sanitary betterment of the c.ty is expected to show in a marked de- gree this summer In a lessening of diseases which have heretofore been dreaded by Bisbee. residents. It is probabl that the ordinance will be presented at the next gathering of the council. which will be the regular monthly meeting.
 Among other matters of city work contemplated for the near future is the laying of the city fire protection water mains, which will commence within the next few days under the supervisor of the city engineering de pertinent. Just where the first trenches will be. dug has net been decided but the mains which will carry the water supply have been well scattered over the street, all ready for putting in the trenches.
 So far as possible white labor will be employed in this work. although some of the trenching and other rough work will be done with Mexicans. Every day a number of Americans ap- ply at the city hall for employment and as many of these as can be util- ized will be put on the job.

OLYMPIA. Jan. 15.-(Special Cor
espondence)-Altho the first week
of the eleventh session of the legisla-
ture is about ended, but little has been
accomplished, beyond the organization
of both branches and the lining up of
the many lobbyists who are here to
work for or against certain measures.
The failure of Cosgrove to arrive and
assume the duties of governor and
the suit started by former Lieutenant
Governor Coon to oust Lieutenant Gov
ernor Hay, has caused a feeling of
uncertainty which is delaying the busi-
ness of the legislature. Up till this
morning no bills had been introduced
in the house and but few in the sem
ate, none have passed except the one
appropriating $S5,000 for ire expenses
Of the legislative session.
What promises to be the most i'm
portant measure of the session is the
local option law The anti saloon
league has a strong lobby here headed
by Superintendent Doty, former SUI
perintendent Raymond and Superin-
tendent Herwig. Of the eastern Wash
lngton division. In opposition to them
and demanding a bill which will pro-
'loe for precinct unit and exempt
eities of the first and second class is

After eight days of zero weather,
unprecedented in the Walla Walla val
lev. relief is in sight and warmer Wea-
ther is promised by the weather Dur-
eau indeed warmer weather has al
ready arrived on the scene. Last night
at o'clock the mercury stood one de-
gree above zero. and it has been rls-
ing steadily ever since, and at 1o
O'Clock this morning was IL degrees
above. The skies over the mountains
have the deep blue which is said to
precede a chinnok wind and the ad-
vance of the mercury seems to JUS
tify this prediction. Every station IN
the Pacific northwest was from II to
% degrees warmer this morning than
yesterday and indications point to
general breaking up of the cold SPELL
Portland was 80 degrees above this
morning and has rain. Seattle was
3S above and it was raining there, as
well. Spokane was II above, Walla

Pocatello A. Montana is much warm

warmed up to within IA degrees OF
that point.
There is every indication of. gen.
eral breaking up of the cold weather"

uncertainty.
Sites which have been viewed, it
is understood, all come below the de-
partment limit of $4,000, and it was
said the price set on the Quinn tract
was $4,000. AS it is fully a block
nearer Main street than the one sell
ected by Agent Mcdowell, there is a
feeling strongly favorable to it's sell
ection.
Even though everything is covered
with snow, maps and charts are, in
nearly all instances, produced to show
the necessary qualifications of the
sites under consideration.

bill which will he passed is very

Another measure which is creating
great interest is the revision of the

which he says is not working salts

cases it would be cheaper for the
counties to build their own roads than
to pay the special highway tax of the
state.

That the Spokane Inland officials
have their eyes on this section of the
Inland empire, and are taking the
preliminary steps for the extension Of
the Graves line from COlfaX south
through PomerOy, Dayton and Waits
burg to Walla Walla, is indicated by
the appearance of a mysterious party
of railroad engineers, who made their
appearance in Penawawa, Is miles
south of ColfaX on the Snake river a
few days ago, and have since been
engaged in runnig a survey to con-
meet with the o. r. & N. right CT
way running from COlfax to the mouth
of Penawawa creek, recently pur~
chased by the Spokane Inland. People
living in the neighborhood who have
closely observed the work of the engi-
neers say that for several days past
thew have been engaged In surveying
line down the eDadman from some
point near Pomeroy to the Snake r1N-
er and thence to a. feasible crossing,
where the survey is being carried on.
There is an island midway of the
ri yer where the line crosses and 1t is
the most advantageous site for a
bridge anywhere between Lewiston and
Riparia, because the main channel of
the stream is narrow at this point and
can be easily spanned without erecting
piers in the water and it would make
particularly desirable place for a
