Hadn't Fallen to His Gun.

Gov. Fort of New Jersey is fond of
telling the following story of how he
shot his first rabbit: When a boy on
the old Fort homestead, in Burlington
county, he was hurriedly called on by
some boys of the neighborhood and
told to get his gun, as a nice, fat rab1
bit was perched on fence near the,
house. He quickly sailed forth, gun
in hand. Blazing away with both bar
rels at the game, he rushed over and
found the animal dead. And" adds
the governor, Judging by the atmos-'
phere in the neighborhood, it had,
probably been dead for more than al
week" .

WHERE ARE THE.
 PLAYERS?
Baseball Park Fast Nearing Completion at Warren
 Warns Rooters' Hearts
BISBEE ANXIOUS TO SEE
 TEAM TRIM CANAMEA

Six teams and as many men are at work in Warren getting the ground in shape fer a baseball diamond Work of erecting the fence and the grand stand will beg.n later. Several fans went to Warren. yesterday to verify the. report. and to give themselves the delight of seeing the work actual ly bagun on the one thing. with 3 team of coarse. which they have wait ed for in B.sbee several years.
 Bsbee has no ball team. True, money for the securing of a team ru the amount of s11Oo or more. was raised, and with little difficulty But there was no park in whicf 70 play and the management d.d not feel justi- fed in keeping men here on 8 salary with no games arranged for. Most of the ball players able to deliver the goods are already signed up for the season. and it will take some tall huss- ling to get a team which will break even with or defeat the fast Clifton. Douglas and Cananea aggregat.ons of ball tossers.
 With an ideal diamond. first class park and an up to date car service. all advantages not heretofore had. t will indeed be disappointment to the hun dreds of fans Tn the district If first class team is not signed. This is the only factor yet remaining to be sup piled to complete the happiness of the rooters.

Utah Sends Engineering Class to Study Bisbee Mines
 and Methods
C. C. POWER PLANT IS
 OF SPECIAL lMTERESI !

A novel delegation visited the mines Of the camp yesterday Eigh- teen mining students all the way from the University of Utah arrived in a Pullman car. Soon after their arriv- al they donned their working clothes and began to study al first hand the various phases of mining as it is done in the great Warren district.
 The eighteen young men composing the party form the engineering class of o9 of the University of Utah. That enterprising school. not content with the theories of mining, insists that its graduates shall personally view the workings of some of the great mines of the United States. Hence their trip to Bisbee.
 Before the Pullman carrying the young eng neers arrived here it's oc- supants had been to Cripple Creek and L-eadville anl the Socorro mines Of New Mexico. They left here last night for a visit to the Greene Can anea mines of Mexico.
 While here the students were gwen every opportunity to learn the things they had come so far to learn. Their trip through the mines attracted much attention from tGe men at work, who passed many good natured remarks among themselves about the young sters
 The objects of greatest interest to the students were the Copper Queen $ big central power plant, and the Sac ranento hoist. At the former place power fer all the m'nas is developed Al the latter the ore from the various shafts of the company is hoisted and carried iIy an immense conveyor d. recly 10 the waiting railway cars.
