IN UNEVEN CONTEST
 DEATH WAS VICTOR
Mrs. Nichols Fought All Day in Vain For Life.

Throughout long day. commencing at four o'clock Sunday morning. Mrs. Theo Nichols. thirty years of age. who ! has been a resident of this place since the twenty fourth of last month, val iaptly fought against the serious in roads of an inherited discsse-tubcr- culosis. Her sister. Miss Matilda Mal- last. and her sisters in fraternalism, the Rebekahs were at her side but the contest was unequal and at the close of the day death was proclaimed the victor.
 The deceased after spending the winter at Houston. Tex. with her hus- band. coming there from her home in Michigan. last month arrived at this place in the last stages of consump- ton and even at that time had to be assisted from the train to her room Her sister was notified immediately of the woman's condition and arrived here March 31st.
 The remains were taken to Tempe yesterday afternoon and from there will be sent to the old home in Mich igan. accompanied by the sister. where iuterment will take place.
 Although the affair was doubly sad from the fact that the woman was in a strange place and there was only one relative at her bedside. yet prob ably never was the spirit of fraternai- ism more pronounced and in evidence, than that displayed by the Eebekahs of Mesa. Mrs. Dcmrick who was an acquaintance of the deceased in Mich iGan- did everything she could to mskc the last days comfortable. but it was the members of the local Rcbckah or der that manifested the spirit of sis- tcriy love. which could.not have helped 10 make the death struggle more cas- ily borne and for which there must have been a. hallciujab up in heaven. heaven.

 The plans call for building which will cost in the ncighborhood Of twsn- ty- five hundred dollars and ifs out side appearance will resemble the Chandler block, being of cement with a pebble dash effect.
 The ladies of the church who have been very active in the noveIpeDt for a new building for the past two years have been adding to their fund from time to time. They have been rather cautious in their spending and have taken considerable pleasure in se.inx their little fund at the beginning grow until it began to look like church However. just because ther have sue ceeded in garnering fund.- is no req son why they should desire to see it remain in a dormant condition.

VIEW l: FROM . FOUR PEAKS ~ N | .A Remarkable and Beautiful One in Every Respect MAYS OBSERVATIONS He Learned Something of
 the Formation of Peaks
 And From the Top of One
 Surveyed a Vast Area of
 Country
MAYS OBSERVATIONS

Jim Goodwin and James Blakely re- turned Sunday from trip to John Jones' ranch in the Four Peaks coun- 1 try. The trip was purely one of pleas 1 ure. both gentlemen having always had curiosity to see what Four Peaks were like at close range. Mir. Goodwin satisfied this curiosity to every extent possible and learned a good deal about the formation Of the peaks that will be of interest to the public. What he learned in this respect he proposes to set forth in an article that he will pre- pare at some later date at his leisure. Mir. Goodwin devoted the better part
 of one day to climbing the third peak from the north and though tt was a rather strenuous ono. he found that tho view from the top was well worth all the effort he had expended Though from here the peaks appear about the same height. Mir. Goodwin says the
 third one at close range is really
 little the higher of the four. He ac- cordingly selected that one. and by
 dint of much hard work was eventual
 ly successful in attaining the summit
 in record breaking time. MT. Goodwin
 fldS seen 6 cObu uedl UT lnt
 and is pretty familiar with the view
 obtained from many of the high ranges.
 but he says he believes there is none
 that will surpass the Four Peaks view.
 Looking to the north he was able to see
 clear into the Flagstaff country. The
 San Francisco peaks stood out in bold
 relief capped with snow. To the east
 the White mountains loomed up. but
 what took his eye more than anything
 else was the great Roosevelt lake.
 Though some miles off. it appeared al-
 most at the foot of the mountain and the partially submerged cottonwoods on
 the Tonto were plainly visible. To the
 south the view extended clear into
 Mexico. while closer at hand deep can
 yons were evident on all sides. To the
 west. the Salt river valley made vast panorama. There was just haze enough to obscure the view little in that di- rcction and the different towns could
 hardly he distinguished.

of the cups date back ten years or more.
 The first cup was won in 1899 when the normal cadet company won the championship of the territory in 8 contest of drilling at Phoenix. The cup was awarded by the carnival associa- tion. That same year the Arizona Football league offered a loving cup and this too was annexed by the norm al. That was the greatest year in the history of normal football when Wal ter Shute, now the district attorney of Gila county. was captain.
 In 1904, the Los Angeles Examiner offered a football pennant. and this too. the normal acquired. Several years then elapsed before the normal gathered in any more cups. This was not because the normal was less eff 'cient in athletics. however. but because cups were not offered. In 1904. The Republican offered it's first baseball cup. and this now graces the normars cabinet. The same year the normal won the championship in track events and a cup for this was awarded by Pinney and Robinson. Then this year the normal girls led off by bringing home from Mesa the cup won at basket ball. The next day the baseball team won the second cup offered by The Re pubIicant which. by the way is the largest and most handsome of any now possessed). and on last Saturday by winning the mems doubles in tennis the normal became the permanent pos scssor of the tennis cup. having won tho event three years in succession. It is just little late in the season now to pick up any more cups before e close of school. but-if there are an o be won. rest assured the normal rl bc there with the goods.

If the normal has as much good for tune in winning loving cups next year as it had this. it will only be a ques- tion of time until q new cabinet for their proper display will be required. Tie winning of the permanent pos session of the tennis cup last Saturday gives the normal three loving cups within the past month. Already the trophy cabinet is we'll filled. for the normal has not confined it's cup win

spectacle, Hubert Latham, the French
aviator, flew over Baltimore, Monday,

seconds in making the round trip, COW

This consists of the fact that for prac-
tically forty minutes he was in contin-
uous over city flight, following a pre-
scribed route. 1t is regarded as one of
the most dangerous feats in aviation.
In addition to winning the IS, 600 Sun

Please go way and let US weep.
Don't disturb our sorrow deep,
We would rather weep than eat,
Grief to US is such treat.
The election is over now,
In sorrow, we our heads do bow,
We had hopes that yesterday
Things would come along our way;
Please forgive our anguish great
For our hearts are prone to ache
Please go way and let US weep,
Don't disturb our sorrow deep,
We would rather weep than eat,
Grief to us is such treat.
For we are so lonely, sad,
When we thought we'd be so glad
We, last week, were gay and bright,
Dot the news that came last night
There was nothing there to cheer,
Hence we can't Withhold tear.
Please go way and let us weep,
Don't disturb our sorrow deep,
We would rather weep than eat,
Grief to US is such treat.
If you knew how bad we feel,
Der your heart would pity steal,
If YOU had no one to cheer,
Maybe you would shed tear;
And you, too, so sad would be,
Just as we are, just as we!
