AFTER YEARS OF SERVICE

Two fire department veterans went
down the scale today-to do hard work
without any chance Of pensioning. They
were Dick and Frank
Dick was the bay horse with a white
star in his forehead which helped to pull
engine No. . tn nearly every big fire that
has occurred in this city in the last three
years. He is 1.4Gl-pound sprinter gone
bad from a fall which he got in a mad
effort to pace his two teammates In a
race between engine No. = and a heavy
fire truck responding to a call from a re-
cent fire.
Dick A dandy and 10 all appear
ances ne still is, but three years at the
most arduous fire duty that horse can
stand has put him down and out as far
as rnakins time is concerned. When Dick
ran 10 q night fire he could strike more
sparks from the gritty street paving than
tine eight hoofs of the two other horses
combined He had the two other horses
i'm the three-hitch in a tremble of worry
half the time for fear Dick would put
them TO shame-at least, that's what the
tiremen at No , say about him.
His Sprinting Record
Dick ran to the bis Martin Wiegsnd
fire last May. and he would have won a
gold medal had he been a man for his
rema rkable run to the lumber yard fire
out on the 9TH street road two or three
years ago.
When YOU remember that No. z is down
hack of the District building and the
lumber yard was miles away, and that
Dick tcck IL on himself to teach his
teammates how to get there, and die
get there almost without sweating. then
you'll know just what kind of born
lire horse Dick was.
Notwith standing his record Dick has
been condemned because he cant run
fast enough. He will be allowed to spend
the rest of his days in the service of the
street cleaning department. There will
ne a scared lot of white wings some
afternoon when No. comes changing
down the street where Dick and his street
cleaning wagon are gathering dirt. Dick

all to the contrary.

fires in the northwest suburbs in the last
two and half years. He could count the
fire alarms and knew almost to an inch
where every fire box in the neighborhood
of Cathedral Heights was. Frank was

he was more than mere card-index
horse. and nobody at u house is going to
forget him. He pulled that big $500

PEARSON PEOPLE HAVE
 SECURED ROAD RIGHTS

FL PASO, Tex, Jan. 21.-Tht Times, tomorrow morning, will say.
 All concessions for building a rail road across Sonora and Chihuahua held by the Cananea Consolidated Copper company of Cananea, Sonora have been bought outright by the Pearson interests, headed by Dr. Frank S. Pearson.
 It is known that a cash consider atiOn was paid for all the rights held by the Cananea Consolidated Copper company. There is a differ enee of opinion as to the exact amount the PearsOns paid, in return for the privilege of building and operating across Mexico a railroad through the northern section of the republic. It is generally admitted, however, that the sum paid was well up in the seven figures.
 The payment of this sum entities the Pearsons to make use of the work already projected by the copper com pany. Preliminary surveys have all been completed and a number of miles of construction work has been done.
 Work on the building of this road was started several months ago by the Cananea Consolidated Copper com pany, but was suddenly and mys- teriously brought to a close. Nobody outside of those directly connected with the company appeared to know anything as to why the work was discontinued, although rumors were many and varied.
 Under Pearson management work on the road will be resumed in the very near future and every effort will be made to complete it in as short a time as possible. When fin ished the new railroad will parallel the continental divide, beginning at point on the west coast of Sonora and terminating at a point on the present Pearson roads running north from Juarez.

FLASH OF ROLLS
 CAUSED TRIPLE TRAGEDY

Arrivals in Prescott yesterday from Octave state that the second victim of George Sanita died in that place Thursday afternoon. The man was Mexican, and his death was due to receiving injuries on the head from the butt end of a billiard cue.
 Additional particulars of the triple tragedy are learned through the same sources.
 It appears a bold attempt to hold up Sanita was made by several Mex. jeans, when they entered his saloon. Sanita had displayed a big roll of greenbacks, taken out of his pocket, and while under the influence of liquor stated that he had nearly $500 in the bunch
 Later, two Mexicans entered the place, and acting suspieiously, con- eluded to provoke trouble. Sanita evidently detected their intentions, for without any hesitaney he grabbed a billiard cue, striking one on the head a violent blow, who retreated out of the building. The other he at

Visible Again Tonight.
From TuesdaY's DailYl

Following the exclusive announce. ment in the Journal-Miner that a comet was visible in the Queen City, practically the entire population turned out on Sunday evening to view the spectacle in the heavens.
 It was one that stumped even the old-timers. They declared that they had seen views before but none that would approach the one that was shown above the western horizon.
 Discussions were numerous during the Sabbath day regarding the comet. Some still insisted despite the state ment of Prof. Percival Lowell, pub lished in the telegraphic columns of the Journal-Miner, that it was not Halley's comet, that it was.
 So keen did the debate become that one Sunday school class was almost broken up because the young astron- omers forgot all about their lesson and talked only of the comet and its probable name.
 It is generally admitted, however, that the comet is what is called h. nes', and that it is not Halley's, which has been visible at times for several centuries.

MIDNIGHT TEST PRE- PAIRING TO RESUME
(From Thursdays Daily)

Gus Allsted, general manager of the Midnight Test mine, on Upper Groom creek, reached the city yes terday. He says resumption of work on that property will take place in a few days, or as soon as surface con ditions will warrant. When the big storm occurred it was deemed advis- able to discontinue operations, the snow at that point being so deep as to interfere with the erection of their new mill, as well as other surface i'm prOvements. The mines bear an ex- eellent name, and in former years was extensively opened. The com pany recently purchased the Nissen stamp mill that was on the old Home Run mine, and it is being installed to treat the ores of the Midnight Test.

tackled in the same manner, raining blow after blow, and inflicting in juries from which the Mexican died a few minutes afterward.
 The Mexican who escaped wandered about for several hours afterwards in a demented condition, and was later found and taken. to a Mexi- cans home. He was kept there from Saturday night until Thursday, when death followed. His skull was crushed on the side over the left ear.
 Following the battle, Sanita treated several times, telling of the attempt to rob him. Sanita was informed that the Mexican on the floor was dead, and without any warning as to what he intended to do, whipped out his 3S.caliber revolver, and saying, "Well, it's all off," sent a bullet crashing through his brain.
 His brother, Dominick Sanita, re- siding at Congress, was notified of his death, and went immediately to the scene of the tragedy. He found nearly $500 in cash and three checks in his brother's pockets.
 Sanita is believed to have feared an attempt would be made to avenge the death of the Mexican. He is said to have repeatedly remarked that a man might as well be dead as to kill one of that gang, as sooner or later they would get him.
 The burial of Sanita's remains took place in Congress a few days after his death.

PLANS FOR PIONEER HOME.
(From Saturdays Daily.)

(frOm OaIurday's Dally.)
 Many architects are at present en- gagged, in different cities of the terri tory drawing plans and specifications for the Pioneer Home to be located in Prescott, proposals for which are to be opened on February first at Phoenix. The law specifies that the plans are to be competitive, and the ones to receive endorsement will be selected for the permanent building. In Prescott, W. S. Elliott is complet- ing his plan, and a perspective is about ready to go south. J. R. Minor, is also drawing up plans, while in Phoenix, W. G. Bleisner, who inspect ed the site least week personally, will compete. It is also said that W. c. Norton, an architect of Phoenix, will enter the field, while at other points in the south, several will submit their work.
 W. c. Foster, member of the board of control, who has been in the city for several days, inspected the ground doated by MT. Murphy, and express ed his approval of the site.

SHEEPMEN ARE
 MOST THANKFUL
From Thursdays Dsily)

From Thursdays DailS)
 N. J. Ritter, the well known sheep man of the northern part of the county, is in the city awaiting the arrival of his flocks, that are coming from Ash Fork, and en route to Beardsley, to go into winter quarters. They are being driven to the south via Cordes and tile Black Canyon.
 Speaking of the late storm, MT. Ritter says he was with others near Ash Fork caught in the deep snows and heavy rains, but fortune favored all, and the losses were nominal. If the second storm had been one of snow, practically all floeks would have been lost, but a soft warm rain following, the animals were permitted to graze without any suffering or loss.
 He says the loss by the storm to the dam owners along Cataract Can yon will run close to $15,000, and new water service will have to be estableshed in that section.
 His sheep will be sheared this sea- son at Berdsley, early in March, af- ter which they will be returned to the northern field for the summer. He anticipates a fine range through the storms that have taken place, and the industry in a flourishing con- dition, with top notch prices prevail ing for the wool.
