CLOSING OUT SALE
 WHICH REALLY IS
A Visit to the Big curio Store Will
 Show Why.

People have often heard of bargain sales. closing out sales, and other spe- cial sales. but those wno want to see what closing out sales really is should drop into, or crowd into, Balke's Big Curio store. There they will see that a sacrifice of prices is being made that means that the stock is being closed out As almost every one knows. it Is necessary for Mir Bake to dispose of his valuable stock as he will leave in the early spring on business trip to Europe which will detain him indefin- itely.
 The only complaint thata has ever been made concerning the Big Curio store was that the prices were too high. That complaint, however, was never made by the we'll informed but only by those who unfortunately had not learned to distinguish between the genuine and the imitation. But even those ignorant compliments would not now have cause for complaint for the prices which are TOW prevailing at the Big Curio store have even the prices of the imitation shaded.
 In the twenty years Mir Bake has been in business. during which he has built up a reputation which has eN- tended to every corner of the United States and even to Europe. he has nev- CT handled an imitation or a shOddy article
 Everything has been sold on the money back system but it is not recorded that any purchaser ever re- turned for his money. He preferred l.s AHua Bake would have made a great deal more money by handling fake goods, which he could have sold much cheap CT and at greater profit, but he would not have run so long and have done so we'll in the end. He can now retire with clear conscience and a knOwl- edge of the fact that he has never had a dissatisfied customer.
 It is impossible to recite all of the bargains offered at the closing out sale prices. one should visit the store. where he can see the prices on every thing. in plain figures. But a few of the bargains are these: Indian mocca- sins for young and old; for the largest and the smallest. Mexican carved leather; native copper souvenirs; Mex ican Zerapes. and here is a special bar gain: last fall the Big Curio store i'm ported a large quantity Gf amber beads which were admired by all as the handsomest they had ever seen. but many were deterred from purchasing by the price. That is no longer an ob- stacle. for the price has been cut from One-third to One-half of the original figures.
 Other bargains which may be men, tioned are these: Mexican baskets, one third off; Mexican pottery at half prices; Pima and Apache baskets. one third off: the famous drawn work from the convent of Guadalajara. of which the Big Curio store has made a spe- cialty for twenty years, one-half price; Arizona ostrich feathers, which have

HORSE RACE STOPPED
 BY AN INJUNCTION
Dan Steele Goes Into Court to Escape Loss of $500 Posted With
 Frank ConnelIeY.

Claiming that the running horse. Money Musk. had been taken from him by the owner, Jack Cottrell, Dan Steele yesterday secured an injunc- ton to restrain Frank Connelley from turning $500 forfeit money he had posted for a race between Money Musk and Schottische, over to Jack Gibson, packer of the second horse.
 Two weeks ago Gibson and Steele made a wager of s1,00O a side on half mile dash between Money Musk and Schottische, to be run yesterday afternoon at the fair grounds. Both the horses took part in the running races during fair week, each winning several events. Sam Passey is the owner of Schottische. which Jack Gib- son contended was the swifter horse of the two.
 Five hundred dollars a side was immediately posted with Frank Con- nelley at the Mission saloon. The terms of the wager were that the second $500 should be posted by noon yesterday. The party failing to come up with another $500 by the appointed time should forfeit the first money posted.
 Gibson handed his second $500 to Connelley several days ago, but Steele failed to do his part. Yesterday morning he saw a lawyer, and at 10 o'clock Connelley was served with an injunction forbidding him to turn over to Gibson the money that Steele had posted. The ground given by Steele in applying for the injunction was that Jake Cottrell, the owner of Money Musk. had taken the horse away from him the night before, and that it was therefore impossible for him to comply with the terms of the wager. It is denied by the Schot- tische supporters that Cottrell took Money Musk from Steele.
 Gibson has made no move to re- cover any of the money in Connelley's possession, and is laying low until a hearing is had before Judge Kent to decide whether the injunction shall be made permanent.
 Incidentally it may be stated that there was no race between Schottische and Money Musk at the fair grounds yesterday.

ANNUAL MEETING oF
 MIDWAY OIL COMPANY
A Company That Has Oil in Its Welis-R. p. Dsvie Again Chosen as a Director. Compsny's Growing
 Business

A. F. Ferris of San Bernardino spent Sunday here his visit being Tor the purpose of holding the annual meeting of the Midway oil company, of which he is manager, for the cleo ton of a new board of directors Thirteen members of the old board were reelected, and two new mem- bers, John Hetterman and k. J. Shoe- maker were named. The new board consists of the following named gen tlemen: M. J. Monnette, Orra l. Monnette, Frank F. Peard. A. E. Per ris, R. P. Davie, J. Ross Clark, h. Edwin Moore, Thomas F.. Gibson, ID. w. C. Merriam, C. A. Mathewson, J. J. M. Danziger, E. A. Wiltsee, John Hetterman and R. J. Shoemaker.
 Phoenix readers will note among the names several that are quite fa- miliar in the western business world and two that are particularly well known in the valley, R. P. Davie and J. R. McKinnie. who have made the Southwestern Sugar company such splendid success.
 Another purpose of MT Ferris visit was to inquire into the probability or this valley as a market for oil for the purpose of road construction. Whether oil is desired for the valley roads is yet to be determined but 1T it is desired the chances are very favorable that Mir. Ferris win have few gallons to sell later on.
 The Midway oil company seems to be one of those that has actually found oil Anyhow MT. Ferris says that on what is known as section g in the Midway field, the company's we'll No 2.which tapped the oil only a little over a week ago. has been shut down for the reason that the company has no more tankage avail able. He thinks this well will be good for 500 barrels a day. Well No. l on the same section is finished and will be put in operation just as soon as the cement work on the sur face is properly set. This we'll is ex- pected to produce 2OOO barrels per day.
 The company has another we'll on section l5 that is now down 22G5 feet and is likely to strike the oil any day. Another we'll on section 30 is down 400 feet. This section adjoins the section on which the famous Lakeview gusher was found.
 Incidentally the company also has six wells in the Kern river field. so that altogether MT. Ferris expects to be in the oil business for some time yet. Anyhow he has so much con- fidence in the capacity of the com nksfS ha v contracted to sell the Standard Oil company 2,2O0.000 barrels. to be de- livered within the next two years and he thinks he can spare a few barrels beside for the Salt River valley if it is needed here.
 Mir. Ferris was accompanied by his wife and daughter and they left for home last night.
