Clifton to Play at Douglas and Bisbee.

Manager Riley of the Clifton base ball club leaves Frisdy with his aggregation of ball players for a series of games to be played at Doug las and Bisbee and unless the hot sands of that section interfere Doug las and Bisbee people will see some thing good in the base ball line. The locals will play one game at Douglas Friday afternoon and on Saturday and Sunday afternoons they will play the crack Bisbee team.
 It is always uncertain to predict the result of games away from home, even if you know you have the best team, but unless the teams of Doug las and Bisbee have strengthened since playing Fl Paso, Clifton is cer- tain to return home with two of the victories and possibly the three. There is not weak spot on the team and our tried warriors have long since passed stage fright.

The Arizona Copper company is in receipt of its big new concentrates briquetting machine, which was manufactured in England upon the order of the board of directors of the company. It will be remembered that test run was made in Clifton several months ago with concentrates briquetts which were manufactured with small experimenting machine; the invention of John Gill, chairman of the board of directors of the com pany, and the result was so encourag- ing, both in point of increased output and reduced cost, that it was decided to inaugurate the new system on a large scale. The company is now making arrangements for the iustalla- tion of the new machine and when the plant is in operation the Arizona Copper company will have a propo- sition that will attract the attention of the large copper companies handling concentrates in their smell ters. The advantage in handling con- centrates in briquetts is the reduced fiue dust and better blast, which in- creases the output of a furnace al most 50 per cent. That the scheme will work there is little doubt, as the test run of several hours gave practi- callY the above result.

The dance given at the opera house last Saturday night by the ladies for the benefit of the base ball club was a pronounced success in every detail and handsome sum was netted for the club. Besides the refreshments the watch contest proved to be source of income in addition to the general admission. A handsome watch was hung up for the most pop ular lady in the hall and the votes were sold at 10 cents each. The vot-- ing at the beginning was rather slow, but later in the evening a most inter- esting race took place in which Miss Ashley, Miss Grace Gray and Mrs. Chilson were the active candidates. The race grew more interesting and towards the end of the time limit Misses Ashley and Gray were the leaders, with the final result that Miss Gray was victorious. The con- test was the leading feature of the dance.

ABOy Burglar.

Upon his return last week from Billiards springs Constable Patty im- mediately took the track of the burg- lar who entered the Cooper residence and the Central Hotel, from which places money and other valuables were stolen last week. Patty at once placed suspicion upon Clarence Ross, a colored boy about ten years old. It will be remembered that this lad was connected with the postoffiee box affair for which he and several other boys were taken before a government detective. At that time it was merely a scratch that all of the boys were not sent to the reform school.
 MT. Patty learned that the Ross boy had been spending considerable money around town and on Friday morning saw him enter the candy store. When he came out Patty took charge of him and landed him in jail and after being in there for few hours the boy confessed to having stolen $50, watch and some other jewelry from the residence of MT. and Mrs. J. G. Cooper. He had a S10 gold piece left which he took from the bottom of his shoe and gave to MT. Patty. The watch was picked up behind the Pascoe holse stable where it was thrown by the boy, and the knock against the rocks completely demolished it.
 On Saturday Judge Moder or dered the boy to be taken before Judge Lewis with the recommenda- tion that he be sent to the reform school, where he will be compelled to remain until he is .twenty-one years of age. MT. Patty left with the boy Sunday morning.

Clean Your Premises.

The town council has two garbage wagons at work cleaning the public streets and hauling away garbage from residences. Owing to the large amount of refuse scattered about the town this work will seem to progress slowly. Another reason for this slowness will be the fact that too many citizens fail to pile up their trash and provide garbage boxes. The council wants its understood that the garbage wagon is for the purpose of hauling away the trash and 2ot to clean up private yards. Each citizen is required to clean his own premises and place the trash in box so the garbage wagon can haul it away. If all citizens will cooperate in this work it will be but a short time until the town will be reasonably clean.
 Another matter which the council is interested in is the outhouses and cesspools, many of which are reported to be in unusual bad condition. An ordinance has been passed and is now in force covering this particular mat ter, but so far few seem to have com piled with the law. This is a matter of much importance and it may mean the prevention of much sickness, con sequently the people should pay more attention to it. It is the intention of the council to get in lehind those who have failed to heed the law and if necessary, the work will be done for them and charged against the property.

THE FIRE COMPANY CUP.
A Gift From President CarmichaeI-lt
 Was Christened Saturday.

In compiling the result of the var ious contests during the Fourth of July celebration in a hasty manner last week, the ERA erred in stating that the Arizona Copper company was responsible for the handsome silver cup and medals offered for the fire company winning the hose race. This prize was given by Norman Car michael, president of the A. c. vol unteer fire company, who is taking a very active interest in the local fire companies, which are com posed wholly of company employees, and it was due to this interest that he of- fered this handsome present in ad- dition to the purse of S6O.
 The cup is solid sllyer, standing two feet in heighth, and besides its value will be beautiful ornament in the home of Archie Morrison, super intendent of the department repre- sented by the fire company. K. A. Loerch, the A. c. jeweler, is now busy doing the engraving for the cup and the medals. The engraving on the cup consists of a shield bear ing the names of the members of the ConCentrator fire company and will be fastened to the base of the cup. The names are as follows: George Reitzer, J. T. Webster, c. F. Taylor, Thos. P. Morris, H. J. McIutyre, Wm. Morris, Wm. Hally, Christian Engel- brecht and Richard Goode.
 The medal is solid silver and is the size of a half dollar. Each member of the company will receive one of these medals, which he will be per mitted to keep. The engraving con- sists of the name of the individual re- ceiving the medal, the name ot his company, and the date and the con test.
 Alter the members of the fire com pany had decided to place their sil- yer cup in the home of MT. and Mrs. Archie Morrison, the boys were in vited to their residence Saturday night for the purpose of christening the cup and celebrating the victory. All members of the concentrator fiji e company were present and all of the companies of the other department were well represented. The evening was spent in partaking of refresh ments served by the popular host and hostess, songs and recitations by number of the boys, music and other amusements. It was in reality feast for all who were fortunate enough to be present and it was after the approach of the small hours be- fore the boys were excused.

Rex Beach's Famous Novel Drama
tized-Strong Company Will

Nearly every city in the Great
Northwest has vital interest in the
great events that transpired at Nome

play or book treating of those events

THE Spoilers" will always be well
come visitor to any city in this
Western country.
When Rex Beach wrote the book
he little thought that his story of
the trials and tribulations of the
hardy northern miners would bring
him fame and fortune. The char
acter of Glenister, part owner of the
Midas mine, is a character true to
life. a logged determined man, a dia-
mond in the rough that is made over
by the influence of the city girl, a
girl of the different type than what
he is used to. Every character re-
presented in THE Spoilers are true
types of men and women that are
found in the Alaska gold fields.
Mr.. McRae has gathered a most
excellent company, which is headed
by that charming young actress
Miss Maragret Oswald, the support
ing company number eighteen peo-
pie. One of the big scenic features
of the production is the third act
showing the exact reproduction OF
the Northern Dance Hail. as it eX'
! listed in Nome in 1900.
! The engagement of THE Spoilers
in this city is for one night, Mon
( day, October is.
