.EASILAKf PARK AND
 CITY RAILWAY co
Fine Stories of that General Utility
 Cooperation.

Few people perhaps are aware "f the rapid growth of the sheep industry in this section and that large sheep ranch has been started by $. IL Mitch ell admost under the corporation lines of Phoenix. or. to be more explicit. at F,astIake park The industry was started there as indicated but it has wandered off the regular range and now MT Mitchell is aggrieved. His in vcstment consisted of six sheep and his purpose was somewhat different from the motives of the average sheep grower who yearns for his flocks to increase and multiply Mir. Mitchell was not looking to the wool O. mutton markets for profits but bought the sheep as being cheaper to secure and maintain than lawn mowers. He fig ured that the initial investment was about as cheap as an ample supply of la awn mowers to keep the grass down and the sheep could board themselves and trim the lawn without the em- ploymcnt of expensive elbow grease. But the other day some one stole the sheep; or else they strayed, he don know which. He says that if 1t is the work of a thief he would much rather the miscreant' had taken the pet aili- gator which does nothing except to lash up the lake with his tail and roil the beautiful effect of the placid pond.
 And about that lake. A man drop ped in d few days ago from Chicago on the shores of Lake Michigan. He beard more or less about Eastlake park and saw the signs on the cars. ha E,f ha ing to see real body of water again and was directed to Eastlake park. He gleefury bearded a car spent ten cents and in about an hour he came back with d chip on his shoulder. saving he had been deceived. His informant then told him he must have gone to the wrong place and proceeded to describe the lake at Eastlake park, in all its gorgeous splendor. equipped with row boats. it's banks fringed with sentiment provoking cottonwood trees. "Humph." replied the stranger. T saw that but never suspected it was a lake. thought
 it was an irriSatinS ditch and what you call an island l supposed was shoVelfu of mud some careless gan jero had thrown into the ditch
 But speaking of Eastlake park and the street railway, for they are all un- der one management. MT. Mitchell has a real grievance. He says he has been doing his utmost to inculcate d high standard of honesty among the street car men. but against such incidents as happened the other day he can hope for little progress.
 A man inadvertently dropped a pocket book in street car containing $l61. The conductor picked it up and took it to the company's office. just as

he should have done. Then the loser remembered where he had left it and when the ear returned he haled 1t. The conductor told him he could find his purse bv applying at headquarters. He boarded the next east-bound ear and when the conductor asked him for a nickel he told him his troubles and in tinlated that the company should carry him out to the, offices free The talk was not effectual and he paid his fare. Arriving he was overjOyed 10 find his wallet safe with all his money in if. After counting it he remarked tO the man in charge that he supposed he would have to give d reward of about two dollars for the finding of the money When informed that he did not have to pay any reward unless he wanted to. his face frightened and Inc departed fairly well satisfied.
 \ city bound street ear chanced to be passing and he gaZed at it rather NcaIningly but did not stop it. He re- called the frugal instincts he cherished s" dcvotcdly. restrained his temptation and walked back to town.

HE SAYS ENUMERATORS
 DID THEIR WORK WELL
Census Agent Creighton Thinks Very Few Were Overlooked in Mari
 copa County.

The taking of the census in Mari copa county is practically completed. said Ned Creighton. special agent for this. county yesterday. There are several exceptions to this statement. however. The precinct nf Lehi has not yet been taken. as the man de tailed to Alma and Lehi found a larger district than he was able to take care of. A new man will be sent to Lehi tomorrow.
 Some doubts have been expressed hy number of people that the cen sus of Phoenix will not be as com pletc as it might be In regard to this. il was pointed out by MT Creighton that the majority of those who complained of not having been met by an enumerator personally were undoubtedly taken. the data having been obtained from some friend or ncighbor. There were 2.S0O blanks sent to the board of trade. and of these but 6S were used. Even some of those that were filled out may be found to have been du- plicatcd when the lists are gone over in the office of Supervisor F. r Towle of Globe
 It may safely be said that the or ganiZation of the cnumerdtors in Maricopa county was as perfect as it could be made Mir. Creighton feels assured that the percentage Of loss in Phoenix win be as small as in any city in the territory.

ON THE MEND
One typhoid Patient Discharged From
Naval Hospital On Sus.
Dected List

pected List
With the discharge of one of the
Midshipmen typhoid patients from
the Naval Hospital this morning, and
continued improvement in the general
situation, the medical authorities feel
confident that there will be no furth-
er spread of the disease.
A rigid investigation is still being
pushed with the view of locating the
cause for the outbreak of the disease,
and though the belief seems to pre-
vail in official circles that it was
caused by foreign supply of milk.
the surgeons have been unable to
definitely locate the source of the
trouble.
John A. McCown, a member of
the fourth class, is the Midshipman
discharged from treatment today.
He was the first to be taken down
with the disease. This leaves
twelve Midshiprnen undergoing treat
ment, despite reports to the effect
that as many as eighteen Midship-
men we're affected.
There is but one Midshipman
now on the suspected list, and it is
not thought that his ailment will
develop into typhoid.

BACK TO FIRST LOVE
Weemstown Is Swallowed Up la It's Old
Time Name OF Wells View

Back to its first love "Weems-
town" has been absorbed by Wells
View, a name by which it was for
merly known. Some of those who
advocated the new name of "W GEMS
town" are wondering.
1T was so soon done for; what
was it begun for" However, Wells
View it was, and is and shall remain.

manent Improvement Association
sends the following to The Capital
under date of November IT:
The w eemstown Permanent I'm
provement Association met November
IA at their regular meetings and
after much discussing and debating il
was decided by the members of the
Association and residents of this vi
cinity that the name of this locality
be called by its old name of Wells
View.
Hereafter this Association will
be known as the Wellsview Perma-
nent Improvement Association. This
Association was organized on August
8, 1910, for general improvements
and has been very successful in its
undertakings so far. They have
succeeded in getting the school and
on November 9 the school was pre-
sented with large and magnificent
American flag by the Junior Order
of United American Mechanics.
they have just installed a large
school bell. They have also been
very successful in having the road
graded and repaired, and have good
prospects of having the road shelled

BALTIMORE ATTRACTION
Victor Moore In The Happest Night OF
His Life" At The Academy OF Music
Baltimore

Baltimore plaggoers are looking
forward with great interest to the
coming of Victor Moore in his new
musical comedy 1.-THE Happiest Night
of His Life to the Academy of Mu-
sic the coming week, beginning Mon
day evening, November 81.
AS usual, the management of the
Academy has made every effort to
secure the best possible attraction
for Thanksgiving week, and they evil
IDENTIFY found just the show to fill the
bill in this new musical production.
Frazee and Lederer, under whose
direction Victor Moore is starring
this season. have just scored the big
gest success in years in New York
with Madame Sherry.
In staging 1.-THE Happiest Night of
His Life" they have made every effort
to surpass even their New York sue
cess, and towards that end have sur
rounded Mr.. Moore with a big cast
of metropolitan musical comedy IA
vorites, and a chorus of the handsom-
est young women to be gathered along
the Great White Way. They have
costumed the production with SEEM
ing disregard for expense and equip
ped it with the most elaborate scenic
and electrical effects.
But above all, the comedy, 1.-The
Happiest Night of His Life" is one
of the brightest musical plays offered
in many years. 1t is the work of
Joe McCree and Sidney Rosenfeld,
contains a most amusing story, and
its twenty-five musical and singing
numbers were composed by Albert
Won Tilzer. Consequently the pro-
duction is one continuous panorama
of fun, music, pretty girls and grace
full dancing.
There is no musical comedy star
quite so popular as Victor Moore, and
the company supporting him in
cludes such names as Annabelle Whit
ford, John T. Kelly, Joseph Marba,
Phil Riley, Emma Littlefeld, Mar
garet Lane, Mae Phelps, Leila
Rose, Jack Henderson and others
just as clever. The engagement at
the Academy will include matinees
on Wednesday, Thanksgiving Day
and Saturday.
