WAS SEEKING ARREST OF
 STREET COMMISSIONER
Said He Spattered Mud on Jewellers Windows and Made Much
 Extra Work.

Street Comrnissioner O. H. Christy is in considerable of a muddle. Mud de is used because it may have some ing to do with mud, substance some times found in the streets of Phoe- nix after d heavy rainfall and more particularly after the gang of men with fire hose finish wetting down the business thoroughfares nightly. It is not known that a warrant is out for his arrest, but Commissioner Christy has been lodging the police now for day or two. Officially upon occasion he IS
 in Iron Springs, but to his friends in whom he feels he can place implicit trust he is at his desk in his office in the city hall His fugitiveness was brought about in a manner somewhat like this:
 A day or two ago there appeared before Marshal Moore. a very much peeved individual who demanded to know who was the street commission CT. He was told that MT. Christy held that office.
 Well, he's the man who vets the streets every night with those big hose, ain't he?" was asked.
 Perhaps he is" replied Marshal Moore.
 Well, I want him arrested" came the rejoinder. I'm hired to keep clean the windows of a jeweler on Washing ton street, and every morning l come down and clean the windows and the next morning I find 'em all spattered up with mud. I wouldn't mind if that there mud got there because it rained or the wind blew, but to have street commissioner proving round at night with big piece of hose and making trouble for me that way. is more'n I'm goin' to stand for. I want him arrest ed, and that's all there is about it.
 Why, before he began to get in his funny work on them there windows. only cleaned 'em once a week and they shined like a nigger's heel. But now it's different I've got to clean 'em every day and I don't get a cent extra for it''
 Marshal Moore promised to do what he could about it. And that is why Street Commissioner Christy is using the sidedoor of the city hall lately.

NEW NEBulAR THEORY
 OF PROFESSOR SEE
His Proof That Countless Millions of
 Worlds are Inhabited.

San Francisco, Aug. 26.-Prof. T.. J. J. See, in charge of the naval as- tronomicai observatory at Mare Is land, addressed a popular educational society known as the Materialists' association tonight, and announced the completion of his researches in cosmical evolution, to which he has devoted ten years. He stated that his investigations had evolved new and improved theory of the sidereal universe.
 On of the points attached to his discovery is that the congregation of nebulae away from the Milky Way, with a maximum accumulation near the poles of the galaxy, is the result of the action of repulsive forces un- der which a fine, cosmical dust eX- pelled from the stars. is driven as far away from the Milky Way as possible.
 According to the speaker. science had not heretofore put forth any general theory of the origin and distribution of nebulae The result of his decade of study is a belief that the nebulae is formed from dust ex- pelled from the stars, while the stars in turn are formed from conden- sation of nebulae.
 The scientist claimed that his the ory of cosmical evolution involved the action of both attractive and re- puIsive forces and had enabled him to explain all classes of heavenly bodies.
 Prof. Sees concluding argument was that the planets now shown to reyolve about fixed stars are inhabit- ed by some kind of intelligent be- ings, so that life unquestionably is general phenomenon of the universe. Men of science must admit that life is general on the countless worlds re- yoiving about the fixed stars, said the astronomer, or else concede that life upon the earth is an accident and a mistake, existing for hundreds of millions of years in direct viola tion of the laws of nature.
 The life flourishing on the earth and believed to exist on Mars and Venus. is but a drop in the Paciflc ocean as compared to that flourishing on thousands of billions of habitable worlds now definitely proved to re- volve about the fixed stars. said Prof See.

PHOENIX BASEBALL
 ASSOCIATION FORMED
BILLY ALVoRD, THE BIG LEAGUE PLAYER, WILL BE TEAM
 MANAGER.
The Association Hopes to Develop a
 Real Baseball Nine.

A crowd of baseball enthusiasts met last night with Billy Alvord, one time famous third baseman for the St. Louis Browns, and formed the Phoe- nix Baseball association. It is the purpose of this association to promote baseball in Phoenix and also to de velop a nine that will wallop all other teams in the territory.
 The meeting was held at the city hall AlvOrd told the men present that he felt quite sure there was enough material here for a really first-class nine We won't go out of town for players" he said. T have hopes that we may even find a pitch CT here who will fill the bill. I have been in the baseball game long enough to know whether a player has it in him when I first see him on the diamond and I don't think it will be long before we can get a nine together that with a little prac- tice will be d hot proposition for any other territorial team to handle"
 Alvord has offered his services as manager of the team at small sal lary. His offer was accepted. Every 
 portion of the gate receipts. There will probably not be enough money to warrant the players in giving up their jobs, but there should be enough to add somewhat to their steady in comes.
 If players from other cities want to join the nine they will first have to become residents and acquire job and show general signs of de- string to make the Salt River valley their permanent quarters. The ball player who blows in for week or SO and then blows out again will find no soft place for him on the nine.
 The south side will not be recruited for players, as 1t is hoped that Mesa and Tempe together will be able to get up a good nine that will make some interesting games possible. Then there will be Prescott and Tucson to play with; and possibly other towns, such as Ray and Flagstaff.
 Charles K. Pishon was elected presi- dent of the association. Billy AlyOrd manager of the team. Henry BaswitZ

constitution. Are we humiliated? Sup pose we are told to provide for an ade quate school system so that our chil- dren may have the best of educational advantages. Are we insulted?
 Let us concede that it is intrinsic ally right for the people to legislate for themselves. How many men are there here who would have the time to do it to examine the merits of ev- cry law that is proposed and referred to them, to say nothing of possessing certain technical knowledge that would enable one to detect a joker in the draft of a lava joker that might joke you out of your constitutional rights? For these reasons we have representatives whose business it is to see that we get good laws.
 "I challenge any man to show me one good thing that has been brought about by means of the initiative and referendum. If you want remedy for corruption do away with your party bosses and your ward politics. Don't sit over there in your store and say that your hands are too clean to med dle with politics. Select honest men for your representatives.
 The initiative and referendum is certain admission of the failure of representaive government and it is equally the first step toward headlong anarchy.
