Norfolk. Va, March 12.--In a great
pitchers battle between southpaw otey
and Jenkins, the Tigers and Tars tied
UP In the opening game this afternoon
by the score of / to /. rain coming in
the latter half of the tenth and put
ting a stop to a game that gave prom
Use of running for number of extra
innings.
In the centre of the diamond Otey
was showing up to decided advantage
having better control and speed for
a dark day, but Jenkins, who was be-
ing hit freely. was given phenomenal
support, the sharp work cutting down
no less than half dozen safeties. Both
teams were Oh their toes, and the fast
work was inspiring.
Roanoke's only run came In the fifth,
when sharp single TO centre. which
Murdoch seemed sure OF stopping, took
n high bound. going over the telders
head to the fence and counting for
circuit rider. 1t was one of the acct
dents that often break up a game.
The Tars had several chances to tie
! things up, but jenkins was unhittable
| in the pinches, received gilt-edge sup
port, and pulled out of the holes until
the ninth, when a clean earned run
| was batted in. Mullaney opened with
| a safe drive to centre. Murdoch then
doubled to the right-cent fence. and
1 NIullaney scored. BY order OF Shaug-
messy, Tiedeman, who had been hitting
| the ball hard, was walked, after one
man had been retired. Murdoch was
caught at the plate on an intield hit,
| and Otey was easy.
| There was decided class to the work
of DOYLE, Newton and Holland, for the
| visitors. Powell also stabbed what
looked to be good single. But for
their work the locals would have won
easily. as they hit jenkins steadily.

POE'S NAME LEADS IN HALL OF
 FAME.

If the first installment of answers in the popular canvass being conduct ed by a New York newspaper may be accepted as a dependable criterion of public opinion, Edgar Allan Poe is gen orally considered more deserving of place in the. Hall of Fame than any other famous American of native birth. From the official list of 206 nomina- tions for the honor, nineteen of the representative men and women who were asked to vote put the author of The Raven" ahead of all the others. These voters included prominent edu- cators, ministers, writers. editors. painters and sculptors, as well as Unit ed States senators, cabinet members and governors. This feeling of the popular pulse is not confined to any one or two sections of the country
 Ranking next to Poe in favor with the voters so far is Patrick Henry. who received sixteen votes. William Gull len Bryant gets fifteen, George Ban- croft and General Philip H. Sheridan fourteen each.
 An election for the Hall of Fame is held every five years. A total of forty names is to be selected from the nom inations-twenty-si Americans of na- tive birth four Americans of foreign birth and ten famous American women. Baltimore News.

FRESH AT NIGHT. If One Uses the Right Kind of Food.

If by proper selection of food one can feel strong and fresh at the end of days worls it is worth while to know the kind of food that will produce this result.
 A school teacher out in Kans. says in this connections:
 T commenced the use of Grape Nuts food five months ago. At that time my health was so poor that thought I would have to give up my work altogether. I was rapidly losing in weight had little appetite, was nervous and sleepless. and experienced, almost constantly, a feeling of exhaus- ton.
 T tried various remedies without good results: then I determined to give particular attention to my food, and have learned something of the properties of Grape-Nuts for rebuild ing the brain and nerves.
 'I commenced using Grape Nuts and have since made a constant and rapid improvement in health, in spite of the fact that all this time 1 have been en- gagged in the most strenuous and exact ing work
 hdNe BdlHeu lWelNe pOunuS m weight and have a good appetite. my nerves are steady and I sleep sound I have such strength and reserve force that I feel almost as strong and fresh at the close of a days work as at the beginning.
 Before using Grape-Nuts I was troubled much with weak eyes. but as my vitality increased the eyes became stronger.
 T never heard of food as nutritious and economical as Grape Nuts"

BRYAN GOES FAST
 ID RIDE BROuCOS
He Took Twenty two Vicious Arizona
 Csyuses Along With Him.

With the finest outfit that any cowboy ever owned, Bert Bryan. bronco buster. left early this morning for New York city. where he will bust ponies on the big stage of the Hippodrome just to show the Gotham ties how they ride in Arizona.
 Several weeks ago Bryan shipped twenty-two head of the widest cayuses he could find in the territory. They went by express and the charges were in most cases more than the horses were worth, as the majority of them. on account of their vicious dis position, are useless for most forms of work. In the shipment were such famous equine demons as Black Jack Wildcat, Bullet, Tiger Jack and Black Diamond. Black Jack in particular may be depended upon to buck off anybody except an Arizona cowboy and he has shot a few Of them way up in the air and got out from under when they came down.
 Bryan took with him all that gor- geous apparel he wears on gala occa- sions. There were the velvet rainbow shirts, the gold mounted spurs and alligator skin boots and saddle studded with Mexican dollars. He signed up several months ago with Manager Shubert of the Hippodrome for an engagement of four or six weeks as occasion may demand. The Hippodrome, which is the largest the ater in New York. has stage as big as the usual cattle corral The floor will probably be covered with tanbark and the stage fenced in so that the bald ones won't jump over into the audience.
 After his engagement in New York. Bryans plans are somewhat indefi nite. He has had an offer from Buff falo Bill to join that aggregation of wild men from the west, and he will probably sell his horses either to Colonel or to the '101 ranch" He may tour the eastern states before dispos- ing of his horses
 Bryans. horsebreaking record in Arizona was one that showed con siderable daring as well as skill on his part. He carries the champion ship belt which he won at the last territorial fair for bronco busting. In New York he will offer a purse of $100 to anyone who will ride two of the horses he selects from his group and will agree to ride any horse brought to him that will stand on his feet and buck for S1,000 a side.

Glendale Department

Ben Uchita, a Jap who has had charge of the pool room in Glendale, and a Mexican implicated in the for gerry on Saturday afternoon of bogus checks drawn on the Glendale State bank, are now safe in jail. Doubtless there will be adjustment tomorrow of this work and little difficulty will be had in proving the guilt of the sus- pect.
 The maker of these bogus checks is evidently an old hand at the business, for the work was very cleverly done. The capture is due to V. F. Messinger. to whom the discovery was made upon the Mexican presenting the check to him under the direction of the Jap, who hired the work done. The trial will clear up more evidence evidently than is al hand now and full clean up of the gang will be made by the officers who are diligently at work on several clues that they think will land others.

ALL HEAT RECORDS
 FOR MAY ARE BROKEN
Yesterdays Temperature Was With out Three Degrees of the Hottest Day on Weather Bureau
 Records.

All heat records for the month of May, since the establishment of the weather bureau in 1895, were broken Sunday and again Monday. The not test day that Phoenix has ever known. or rather that the bureau has record of. was July 3, 1907 when the mercury aviated to IF. Yesterday the weather bureau thermometer registered just three degrees less than this or l14. which is going some for a balmy May day.
 You may talk about your rare June days" as the poet saith; but If said poet had happened to live in Phoenix he would doubtless have referred to those dear well-done days in May"
 Previous to last Sunday the hottest day in May was in 1906 when on the Sth the mercury scared to no The highest record for May 90 was in 1903 when it stood at 106.
 The present heated term" as 1t is sometimes called, began last Friday. Before that the temperatures had been not far from normal. On Thurs day the thermometer registered 91; Friday it jumped to 10. Saturday to us. ouIudN lo llG anu yCSbVihdN 'o lI4
 What is going to happen today not even the weather man knows. The prediction is for fair weather. The thermometer can't do many more ac- robatic stunts without smashing the record anG making May the hottest month of the year.
 The one joy about the present hot weather is the low humidity. It stood around 14 yesterday afternoon. With any great amount of humidity the tempers lures of the last few days would be unbearable. As it was. very little inconvenience was suffered. The two hottest days were holidays so that many did not have to go to their places of business. Those who have cool homes rather enjoyed the weather but there are many others who eX- pressed their intention of betaking their annual iaunts to seaside and mountains a little earlier this year than usual The seasoned resident of the territory walked about nonchalant- ly. perspiring and happy. but the ten derfoOt tourist just gave one look al the thermometer and fled
