OSBORN SCHOOL BONDS
 BRING 4 RECORD PRICE
A Premium of stt9s.5o on an Issue
 of $i7.000.

Considering the generosity of the bids which were opened yesterday for the osborn school bonds the fame of that district must have reached the great centers of finance. There was never before such 2 fierce competition for possession of the school bonds in the history of this county.
 The amount of the bond issue was S11,0g0 and the highest premium of fcrcd was that of thc Security Trust company of Detroit of slI?S.50.
 Other bidders were l.. N. BurntraCcr of Denver. S36J.5O: Jas. x. Wright & Co. oG Denver. sS15: John Newson X Co. of Chicago. sI2G: New First Ma tional Bank of Columbus. ohio. s6S9; Jas. II. Adams X Co. of Los Angeles. S1i5.50 and the Valley Bank of Phoe- nix, S100.
 There was some doubt regarding the propricty or accepting the bid of. the Security Trust company on account of the form of endorscment of the ac- companying check. IL was stated that the check should be payable only up- on the approval of the company's at torney of the validity of the bonds. w hiit tiidA toilultiOii iS hSudtiN uliutT- stood it is not usual that a string of any sort should be attached to the check which comes with bid.
 The board submitted the matter to District Attorney Bullard in the after noon and he gave it as his opinion that the endorsement did not cut any uufavorablc figure. No bidder. he said. would accept the bonds if there was any question as to their validity. Be- side. the solidity and prominence Of the company with such packers as Russell X. AlSer and D. NJ. Ferry he believed should be q sufficient guar anty. Accordingly the bid v,ls ac- ccpteJ.
 Later the board acted favorably on applications of school districts to bond as follows: Phoenix Union High School. S15O.000: district l7. $500: the Mesa district. sl9.000

And Soon Cured Perfectly and Eco nomically Doctor Called It Ec- zema and Little Sdffere- Rubbed and Twisted All the Time.
CUTICURA AGAIN PROVED THE GREAT SKIN CURE"

My baby boy was about nine months old when he had . breaking out on his neck which was very annoy ing. It used to make him very fretful and cross because it seemed to worry him 80 much. In the meantime I was sick myself. I had my doctor look at the baby sBd he told me it was eczema and he wanted to treat it. But a friend of mine told me she knew if could be cured cheaper than any doctor could do it for and in much less tirne. So I started using the Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment which I soon found out was what ought to have had be-
 fore, for the eczema seemed to itch so the baby could not keep his bead still for he was rubbing and twisting all the time. I used the Cuticura Remedies about three times the first day and began to notice the good it was doing. for he began to get rest from rubbing his neck.
 So I used three cakes of Cuticura Soap and two boxes of Cuticura Oint- meRt and now DO one could tell that he ever had any kind of breaking out. and since then I have never been without the Cuticura Soap nor the Cutioura Oint- ment.

 The party of manhunters. including Deputy Sheriff Adams and~the larger part of the male population of Glen dale. returned to that place yesterday afternoon after a vain search of thir- ty-six hours for the body of M. II. Prochooka. Bohemian. who left the sugar factory a dozen days ago and was last seen week ago last Satur- day in a neighborhood far northwest of Peoria in region where there was little water He had some in a canteen. The chances seemed to be that he was dead-a soner.
 His fate appealed to the humanity of Glendale. which shuddered at the thought of his body stretched out on the desert his dead eyes glaring at the merciless sky He should be given at least a decent burial. With this end in view. Deputy Sheriff Adams was invited to. head an expedi- tionary force for the intermopt of the corpse of Prochooka. +4. -.
 The trail of the doomed man was found far from the place where he had last been seen. It led away into the mountains which had beckoned the Bohemian to the most horrible of deaths. The trail was easily followed. Farther and farther into the mour

 But at length the trail turned and led aimlcssly down into; the footliills and back upon the fatal desert. .It kept leading until at last it brought up at the railway station at Beardslcy Mir. Prochooka had tired of walking and had committed himself to the mercies of the Santa Fe system.

As a measure OF self-protection
major league owners this winter prob
ably will adopt a new rule making
1t imperative for all ball players un-
der contract to report. when ordered,
for spring practice. Failure may cost
the player a fine or a suspension or
both.
The rlan has not been completely
worked out yet, but the magnates in
botl the major leagues have IL under
consideration and majority of them
have gene on record as favoring It,.

by some players, but really they have

catch up when the recalcitrant tossers

case of Geo Stone of the Browns.
Stone refused to report for spring
training in Texas, and he didn't join
the team until the season began. He
was not in shape to play ball. as he
quickly demonstrated when O'Connor
put him in the game. His fielding
was off and so was his batting. Now
Stone is practicing before each game

and sitting on the bench during the
contest. while a weak-hitting substi-
tute is taking his place in the outfield.
O'Connor and Robert Lee Hedges,
owner of the Browns, are confident
that with Stone in condition at the
start OF the season, as he would have
been had he made the spring training
trip the Browns would stand higher
In the A. l.. race than they do at pres
ent.
Baseball is like any other line OF
endeayor. To be a success a man
must keep at II, keep plugging away :;
and 1t is foolish for ball player to
think he can lay off all winter and
jump right into big league games and
go the same clip as his opponents who
have had the advantage OF a training
season. The players are paid good
salaries for their work, and the mag
mates have a right to see they are In
shape to deliver the goods they are
drawing salaries to deliver.
Hedges, II is known, favors the
adoption Of a rule which will make
the players take the spring training
trips. and he will probably be the man
to introduce II at the A. L. meeting.
National league magnates have also
had the same trouble, and II both
leagues do not adopt some such rule
at their meetings this winter, ii will
surprise the wise ones who follow
baseball closely. .....

ball commission, stated today that he
has in his possession copies Of con-
tracts offered by the new baseball

in the form OF certified check In

The usual petty charges that pitch
ers in the American league are max
ing IL easy for Nap. Lajoie In his ef-
fort 10 land the automobile are be-
ing made by certain newspapers
whose vision Is limited TO the length
OF their noses. We suppose II Ty
Cobb were enjoying a batting rally
some OF the press in Cleveland would
be narrow-minded enough 10 allege
favoritism for Cobb.
The scorers did take whack at
each other not long since. all OF
which appears very amusing 10 a
man who has worked in both cities
and whose acquaintance with both
factions is close.
Nobody is going to cheat for either
man in the pursuit OF the auto. Con-
tinual reference TO favoritism only
cheapens the gift and discloses the
writer's narrow-mindedness Nap.
Lajoie is friend of ours, so is Ty
Cobb. but We can't let our feelings
for one man run away with us TO the
extent that We see every body in the
great American league favoring one
player just for spite against the 9th
err
AS a matter OF fact, the players In
the league are not sore at the Georg
ian. OF course, Cobb isn't exactly
what you would call a quiet player
and he has taken his share OF the
task OF bawling out the opposition
but nobody is chasing up and down
the circuit with a meat-axe trying
to clsave his head and his batting
AVERAGE TO boot.
There Is one very commendable
thing about baseball-they play the
string to the finish. That has made
the game so popular. You recall IN
the autumn OF 1908 when ST. Louis
Chicago. Detroit and Cleveland were
lighting for the leadership, IL dwin-
died down TO Cleveland and Detroit
next TO the last day of the season
II Cleveland beat St. Louis the Tigers
would lose.
The Tigers were tn the height OF
their go and get EN-" policy. De-
troit did not have a gentle. hand
shaking team. II was the worst bunch
In the league to sit on the bench
and deride the opposition. Collective
ly the Tigers were not popular with
the other players.
