Of the Ocean county senatorial steal

will hear argument in the application
of Senator-eleet George c. Low for a
recount of the ballots cast in the entire

The recount that exposed the stuffing

suit cheated Low out of the election,
and reversed his plurality of eighty-one
by giving Thomas A. Mathis fraudu-
lent victory by plurality of forty -one.

Lows interests will be looked after
by ex-senator Edwards. of Jersey City,
while the Mathis end of the argument
will be taken care Of by AIaja Leon
Berry. who Is county judge and
brother-in-laN- of Mathis. Speaking of
his desire to have recount of the
whole county. Senator-elect Low said
today:
Il firmly believe that IN the face of
the Stuffing Of the Lakewood ballot
box, that resulted in my being cheated
by the recount. that If all the boxes OF
the county were opened and the ballots
recounted that enough crooked work
would be brought out to still elect me.
The official count on election night gave
me majority of 81 over Mathis, while
the assemblyman, Harry Newman, was
elected by a plurality of s95, more than
three times the plurality that was
originally given me. There is every
reason for me to believe now that the
Republican machine did its best to
keep down my plurality in the first
instance. A recount of the other boxes,
I am satisfied. viii show other glaring
Irregularities
A friend of one of the suspected bal
lot-box suffers went to Harry
Newman last night asking him
about indemnity for him If he
would reveal the others who were con-
cerned in the steal. also If the reward
would be paid to him. He was told
that the reward would be paid him

own use, he secured thousands with
which to play the margins.

NANTUCKET, Mass, Dec. ia
northwesterly blizzard tore the three
masted schooner Thomas B. Garland, of
Portsmouth, N. H., from an apparently
safe anchorage underneath Handker-
chief Shoals, across Nantucket Sound,
and tossed her into the icy breakers in
side of Great Point Light at 2:30 g. m.
today. The half-frozen crew, one of
them badly injured, were brought
ashore at daylight by Captain Norcross
and his crew of the Coskata Life Saw
ing Station. Mate Daniel Larson was
so severely injured as to require surgi-
cal treatment
The vessel struck heavily on the
outer bar, but the great seas soon lifted
her over that sandy barrier into deeper
water and then threw her with terrific
force on the inner bar hundred yards
off the beach,
Patrol Gives Torch signal.
The early morning north patrol, from
the Coskata Life Saving Station, caught
the dim outlines of the vessel in the
whirling snow-storm and immediately
burned his torch The signal was
caught by the watch at the station and
the entire crew started for the wreck
Captain Norcross waited until day
light in order to judge the height of
he seas. and then his men plunged
the life boat through the surf and
started for the schooner. The one
hundred yards from beach to schooner
against the fearful seas was only COW
cred after an hours battle, in which
all the life-savers We're drenched. On
getting in the lee of the schooner the
crew of the life-boat brought her near
enough so that the injured mate could
be lowered into the boat, and then the
crew Of the Garland followed, one by
one. Captain Wallace being the last
to leave the deck.
The Thomas B. Garland registered

THE GAS COMPANY
 PUTTING IN MORE PIPE
Work in Progress on Side Streets and
 Alleys.

The South Side Gas company has a force of men at work laying service pipes down Fourth street to the alley in the rear of the Casa Loma. The line will be extended north on that al ley and practically every business house in the block is having gas con nections made. The Casa Loma will be supplied with it. the saloon on the far corner and the barber shop and other establishments in between these two. It is also planned to run a ser vice pipe north from Fifth street in the alley back of the Farmers & Mer- chants bank so that those establish ments in that block which require gas can be supplied with it. On the op- posite side of Mill avenue service pipes can be run into the buildings from the front and the main is on the edge of the sidewalk. The superintendent of the work states that more people than one would imagine are now using gas in Tempe and without exception they are all well pleased with it. Others who are not using it are preparing to and new contracts are being signed every day.

FIRE BELL WILL
 BE INSTALLED SOON
Soon Will Carry Four Miles an Ade-
 quate Alarm.

The new fire bell, weighing nearly six hundred pounds, hs arrived and will be placed in position imme- diately. The bell comes with a strong guarantee to give satisfaction or that the money will be refunded. The purchase was made by Council man Bracket of the fire and police committee. assisted by the mayor and other members of the council.
 For some time the old bell. which has been used at this place for the past several years. has been cOnsid cred inadequate. Upon the recent visit of a representative of the Pa cific Fire Underwriters, at which time a test of the fire fighting facili- ties was made. the weakness of the alarm system was pointed out to the council, whereupOn steps were i'm mediately taken looking to the pur- chase of a new bell. According to the recommendations, the bill has a carrying capacity of four miles when conditions are favorable. However, under favorable conditions the alarm should be carried at least over the entire corporate limits of the city and call to the scene of conflagra- tion every volunteer fireman in the service.

THE FIGHT
 CONTINUES Another Act in AirdoIne
 Drama ONE ARREST WAS MADE The Result of a Street Al tercation Between Two Factions On Wednesday. It Had No Effect On the Nights Shows

Another act was played fin the local airdome fight Wednesday evening and this time the word fight is used lit terally and not figuratively There was a fight but t was of very brief dura ton. However, the material was on hand for a big one and all that was required was just one more blow to start things moving
 It happened about half past Wed nesday evening before the shows opened. According to report, MT. Tur
 ner and MT. Donovan, the two Jacks, were holding conversation on the street regarding different phases of the air
 dome fight, MT Donovan representing the Vance interests and MT Turner representing his own. According to
 Mir Turner, il was while he was thus engaged that Claude Coil, another
 member of the Vance force. approached and swatted him (Turner) on the face Immediately pandemonium broke loose
 Friends of Turner showed a disposition
 to defend him while on the other hand
 MT. Donovan rushed to the protection
 of Coil. He waXed tragic and declared
 that whoever struck that young man would do so over his dead body. While
 no further blows were struck there | was much hot air dispensed on both
 sides before an officer arrived and es-
 corted the conflicting parties to the ] court room, accompanied by a crowd
 that packed the. court room and over
 flowed on the outside.
 In the court room MT. Turner swore ' out warrant charging Coil with as- To rala 1al eEtttl
 as charged and announced that
 he was ready for sentence. He was fined Sl5 which he immediately paid. No one else seemed to care to ! swear out a warrant for the arrest or any one and the excitement was over. 1 Having both sairdome homogeneous on hand the marshal took occasion to
 announce that henceforth there will
 be no more boosting for shows with
 megaphones on the streets. The only
 hollering that will be allowed will be
 from in front of the show house. | Both houses showed as usual in the
 evening, the Turner house having pie
 lures only, followed by a dance in the i opera house. The Vance house had in addition to pictures. three vaudeville acts-the Cowboy Violinists, Kelly &
 Rowe and wound up with a burlesque 1 boxing match between Messrs. Dono-
 van and Coil. It was less realistic than the incident earlier in the even ! ing.
 At the conclusion of the act MT. Donovan announced the program for the rest of the week and stated that
 he deeply deplored the difficulty earli- | ar iY, tho avening He regretted his participation in it and stated that he had planned to leave Tempe. Tonight and tomorrow. night there will be shows at the Vance with different pie lures and the same vaudeville people in different acts. At the Turner air dome there will be pictures both even ings followed by dancing at the opera house.

 Funeral Yesterday.

A message was received at this place late Wednesday evening from the Johnnie Coleman place, near Granite Reef. announcing the sudden death of J. C. Crabtree at the home of Frank Asher, ten miles north of Mcdowell. The deceased was the father of Mrs. Jeff Adams of Phoe- nix. After announcing the death over the phone, the messenger, who had proceeded to Granite Reef from Mcdowell. came on to this place, where he secured a casket from HOd- nett X Burton parlOrs and. hiring a conveyance, began the return trip from Mesa. leaving about 1 o'clock yesterday morning. The funeral was conducted yesterday at Mcdowell. where the remains were laid beside those of members of the family who have died at that place. According to the messenger who came to this place, the death was very sudden and unexpected. The deceased was sitting in a chair eating ice cream when. without warning, he fell for ward and was dead before assistance could reach him, the cause of death supposedly being heart failure.

AFFAIR uNTANGLED.

Wednesday afternoon Mrs. Lopez and daughter drove a horse to town which it was claimed strayed away from Earl Lisonbee about five weeks ago and has not been heard from by him since that time. Constable Burton immediately began to look into the matter and telephOned to Mir Lopez of Tempe to determine just how the horse came into his possession. Itswas explained that the horse had come to his place in Tempe several weeks ago and had stayed around his ranch and had finally been turned into the pasture. It appears that Mrs. Lopez desired to come to Mesa and the horse was pressed into service with the above results. Mir Lopez will come to Mesa either today or tomorrow for the purpose of purchasing some stock from the Lewis brothers. when he will explain the situation further. the telephone being an unsatisfactory manner of clearing up the affair as far as the constable was concerned

BOULEVARD
 ID CAPITAL One Hundred Miles Is AI-
 ready Completed FROM GLOBE ID PHOENIX Improvement of Highway Between This Place and Capital Needed. Move ment Is Already Started. Tempe Boulevard District Recommended
FROM GLOBE TO PHOENIX

With the completion of the terri torial highway between Roosevelt and Globe and the tax levy Drovid- ing for the construction across the river at Tempe has led to a move ment at this place for a boulevard between this place and Phoenix. The road between Mesa and Roosevelt, constructed by the government, is often referred to as the best automo- bile mountain road in the United States. It is understood that the road recently completed between Roosevelt and Globe is also a high way in construction equal to that of the Roosevelt road. making a stretch of practically one hundred miles of ideal automobile thorOughfare While the roadway between this place and Globe will in all probability have to remain as a simple, we'll kept road from the fact that irrigation pre- cludes the possibility of growing trees, yet the roadway between this place and Phoenix can be more or less of a boulevard. The highway at the present time between this and the capital city cannot be called a credit to the progressive residents of the Salt River Valley However. with the establishment of a boule- yard district and the encoura cement of interest, a boulevard can be main tained between Mesa and Phoenix. As a matter of fact, the problem between Mesa and Tempe will be easily solved. The planting of trees would not be an onerOus un- dertaking by the residents if the idea should once become lodged that it could be accomplished.
