TEMPE DEPARTMENT
Injured Mexican Goes To County Hospital
Pablo Gotta Wl,o Had Leg Broken in
 Drunken Row.

Dr. NJ. w. Brack of Mesa, the assist ant county health officer, whose juris diction extends over the south side. was called here yesterday by pr. Brechan to look into the case of Pablo Cota Ccta. it will be remembered, some six weeks ago while in drunken row, suf- fered a broken leg. Under ordinary conditions he should have been nearly well by this time. His health, how ever, was in such a condition that the broken bones did not unite as they properly should. It being a county case. pr. Brechan felt that with the prospect of a long siege in view, the injured man could have better care at the county hospital than he could get at his home here.
 Dr. Brack. after looking over the case. took the same view and he ac- companied Gotta to Phoenix yesterday noon. He will be taken to the county hospital and will be kept there until he becomes well.
 Speaking of the case Dr. Brechan said that on account of the mans i'll health the bones had only partly united and in his mind it is question whether they ever will or not without an opera ton.

The Two School Teams
 Will Play Ball Here
Mesa and Tempe Have Their Second
 Meeting Next Saturday.

On Saturday, February l?, the Tempe union high school and the Mesa high school will cross bats on the Tempe high school grounds at 2:3O D. m. These two teams have met on one occasion before and the Tempe high school defeated the Mesa high school by score of to 8, with only one error charged up against the local team. The game of next Saturday promises to be one of the very best of the season because the Tempe high is getting itself into the very best pos sible form and by all means wishes to administer the second defeat to the team from the sister city.
 The Mesa high school has already defeated the normal, Phoenix high school and Indian teams and they will in all probability try their best to de- feat the Tempe high school boys in or der to complete their continual rounds of success. A large crowd is expect ed to witness this ball game, and there is no doubt there will be plenty of roofing for the local team. The other teams are hoping that Tempe v-ill con- tinue to be Mesa's hoodoo.
 Dimes. the high school pitcher, is in good form and is prepared to pitch the game of his lite Saturday. The game will be called at 2:30 and the usual admission fee of 25 cents will be charged.
