THE CONTINUED ABSENCE
 0f VOLUNTEER BRIGHT
Causes Further Delay in the Shin
 deIbower Case.

The train robbers having been cap tured and secured. public inquiry con cerns the whereabouts of Bright upon whose affidavit motion for d new trial for Frank ShindeIbower had been asked for. Bright is still among the missing: he is more missed than ever. When court adjourned on Thursday night after partial hearing of d lDo- ton for d new trial. there was a clue or supposed clue to the lair of Bright When court reconvened yes- terday morning. there was none at all Bright was as if he had never been born. The sheriff's officers and the attorneys for. defense reported that in the course of most exhaustive search they had encountered neither the hide nor hair of Bright.
 The defense believed that if it was given one day more it might bring the witness with the luminous name into court. It was forlorn hope but the court took cognizance of it and con- tinued the proceeding until today. Ac- cording to previous order of the court sentence was to be passed upon Sbindelbower yesterday but that or der was sent aside so that unless Bright can be found and it appears that his evidence will warrant q new trial. sentence will be passed today.

ANOTHER CONTEST
 N LEAGUE SERIES
Capitol and Phoenix National Ball Teams Play This After
 noon.

The second round for the baseball belt of the Phoenix league will be called today at 3:30 when the Capitol team will for the second time face the Phoenix National Bank team at East lake park. In the former meeting the bank team took the biscuit with a score that sent the Capitols back home in chagrin.
 But that was some weeks ago and there have been great changes in tue face of nature since that time. Hal ley's comet has appeared. King Ed ward has died and the train robbers have been captured. All this time the Capitol team has been busy. practicing and playing the great game of base ball. Fred Cleaveland and other heavy weights have got back in the harness and the lineup has become more of a definite quantity
 Meantime the Phoenix National trimmed the Valleys and then the Capitols trimmed the Valleys and got reputation and now in the second round the Capitols and Phoenix Ma tionals are believed to be well matched. both playing good ball. Last
 
 six or seven innings of it being first class. and there is every reason to be- lieve that today's contest will be close. Win or lose. it should be the best cx- hibition of ball the league has yet pro- duced. There may be errors and bad breaks occasionally but for the most part the teams are out of the opera bouffe class and down to business.
 The auxiliary roofing club of the Capitols, the young ladies. is expected to be out in force today and it is pos- sible the Phoenix Nationals will also have a ladies' auxiliary in session. It had one organized while back but whether it has kept up it's vocal prac- tice has not been announced. The line up of the bank team was not secured yesterday but it will probably be much the same as on it's last appearance and the Capitol lineup will be as follows in batting order:
 Hankinson, left field;~ Hasse. center field: Fitch. catcher; Luhrs. second base; Ames. pitcher; Peatross. short stop: Ingalls,. right field; Craig, third base; Cleaveland. first base.

No Heroism.

The local jail is inhabited by two young men who now have time to consider whether train robbery is an attractive calling It is to be hoped that the treatment accorded them by the public will not lead them to be- lieve themselves heroes. But their case presents certain features which appeal to emotional, Unbalanced peo- pie, and it would not be extraordinary if we should see them made objects of sympathy. They are young boys, and they had undoubtedly fallen under evil influence from some source
 Whether this influence comprised par ental neglect, inherited cussedness, yellow back novels, or the qualification of spectacular crime by moving pie ture shows, or all these things com eined. has not been made known But at any rate they are not heroes, and there should be nothing done to lead them or other boys who are watching their case to think that their conduct has been anything but detestable Their crime was the result of careful reconciliation and preparation. They went into the train prepared to murder men and women if they met resist ance. Not only the cold letter of the Jaw. but the demands of justice and the welfare of society all require that they, shall meet severe punishment

concilement. The train robber is a back number He can not flourish in the atmosphere of the automobile. and he must go into evolution's scrap heap. Indeed, he is already gone.
 Had Wednesdays robbery of the Maricopa & Phoenix train occurred twenty years ago, the robbers would have had the best of the game and good prospect of making a clean score. The proverbial stern chase that is a long chase would, if planned as this robbery was planned. have re- suited in the escape of the rob bers into Mexico. Between the Southern Pacific railroad and the Mexican line, south of Maricopa. lies one hundred miles of unlnhabited de- sert With a start of twelve hours the robbers. on horseback. and pursued by officers on horseback. could have counted on escape. But their calcula- tions did not take the automobile into consideration. The impotency of the horse in a contest with the wheeled monster of gasoline was overlooked.
 The automobile-on the level desert. at least-has made the train robber an anachronism.

ton store is to sell lot of goods, make
 the sale a popular one. and to do that
 it is conceived that the best way Is to
 ca apitalize the popularity of the Phoenix
 women. turn 1t into money for the Bos- ton store and pleasure for the women.
 at least for the six lucky ones who
 are elected by the money of their friends.
 This, too, Is a case where if is no crime to buy votes. or rather the privi- lege of voting. and the privileges are sold remarkably cheap. one dollar will get hundred votes and $tO will buy 5000 votes. And in addition the store will throw in merchandise to the face value of the cash investment. One of
 the five candidates will draw grand prize which will be a traveling outfit selected by herself. valued at stOO. and , the further favor of being allowed to name the cliaperon.
 Eligibility to enter the contest re- Quires only that the candidate be a woman over-I5 years old. She may be married or not. That's her business. She may be a widow, or she may have
 been a widow and got married again. or she may possess natural antipathy to men and swear she never will get married. But If she is that kind of woman she has mo chance to win. for
 this is to be popularity contest, and lot of people in this country are
 men. and it is expected that lot of money spent in the contest will come out of the mems pockets.
 The method of entering the contest
 so one can be voted for is merely to go
 to the store. sign an entry blank and secure a coupon for 5000 votes. That's
 easy. It costs nothing to get in. how
 ever much one may get out of it. And
 those who are too modest to vote or
 who are afraid to let the election board
 know who they are voting for, may take their checks with them and give
 them to the candidate so she can vote
 for herself. Then too the store has ar
 ranged to divide the county up in dis
 tricts. and all that sort of thing. Ii is big plan an worked out in detail in the advertising columns of this issue, subsidized for the time being by the
 Boston store. Ii is expected that every
 woman in town will read the stores advertising this morning. The thing to dwell on is that five women from this county are going to be sent to Santa
 Barbara for months outing. all at the expense of the Boston store. and given the best the railroads and the famous
 Hotel Potter can put up, and it will cost these women nothing. except the hustlng for business that will bring the votes.

But when he got among the Germans he was among people of his own way of thinking and doing. His remarks in relation to the race suicide question were for the first time commendatory rather than fault finding.

The Public and priz. Fioh,;no.


 The efforts of some of the good peo- ple of California to prevent the sched- uled glove fight between Jeffries, the heavyweight white man, and Johnson. the heavyweight black man. have once more drawn attention to the incon- sietent and unexplainable attitude of a portion of the public in the matter of prize fights. Granting, as nearly everybody does, that all contests in the prize ring are vulgar exhibitions of mans brutality, it would be inter- esting to know why public objection is confined to the championship fights of the heavyweights. But month after month, year in and year out, fights take place between the smaller fry without attracting the attention of the people who find their sensibilities shocked by thoughts of a fight be- tween Jeffries and Johnson. Yet a fight between smaller men is just as likely to be prolonged affair. and just as revolting in all it's aspects as a contest between sthe biggest men. All such exhibitions are equally indefen- sible. but it is true, as Harper's Week ly says. that -
 ''Fist-fighting is brutal, but it is not very deadly. The current contentious that kill are those of the mind. Hate. anxiety, fear and distress of mind are exceedingly unhealthy. Loss of money or reputation and pecuniary distresses are very deadly, as appears in the long death roll after every financial panic. Serious lawsuits, too, bring murderous strains in their trail. Some recent ones have had shocking results in bereavc- ment and the cutting short of valu- able lives. These perils of our civiIi- zation make prize-fighting seem com paratively wholesome. That sport at best is far past its prime. and excitcs only a superficial interest. The great fights of our day that take hard hold and are deadly are the money fights of one kind or another to determine who shall get back and who shall let go. who. shall have more and who shall give up. To go back and be really SltTTt0 up over d pTILc-IlSHt HOulu seem almost like resuming the simple life. Our contemporary fall crazes over football are much more charac- teristic of the tastes and proclivities of our generation. This is a mechan- ical age, and a football team is a ma chine. It is on age of combinations. whereas a prize-fighter is a unit. It is an age of intense mental competi- tions, and there is good deal of men, tai competition in football. but prize fighting is not a very mental sport. Compared with football it is almost a recreation. Compared with the strife of the muck -rakers with the corpora tions it is a vaudeville show. Let us not worry overmuch, then, about Jef- fries and Johnson. Their performance is too much out of date to be public danger"
 To the foregoing we would add that if even more prize fighters died in the ring it would be difficult to convince the public that it had lost anything. The prize fighter is an incubus, and his life is worth nothing to society whereas in the death of every college man or school boy killed on the foot ball field we lose prospectively val uable citizen

Cleveland Gould and Harry Sper-

en- prisoners who made their sensa-
tional break for liberty from the
county Jail. one week ago, were taken
into custody yesterday morning about
daylight by Sheriff Taylor. They
were found in one of the ]. f. Smith
company's lamping camps at the forks
of Bear creek, about ten miles south
of Pilot Rock. Only one of the sew
en- fugitives, Peter Bloom, is still at

Sheriff Taylor received his first
clue to the direction taken by these
two Saturday forenoon. He soon dis
covered that he was on the right
track and by making use of the tele-
phone traced the fugitives through
Pilot Rock and on to the sheep camp
beyond. 1t was late in the evening
when he finally located them definite
ly, but instead Of waiting until morn
ing he hitched up his team and by
daylight was at the camp.
They had both been employed as
herders and were still in bed when
the sheriff arrived. They were there
fore somewhat surprised when the Of
ficer walked in on them. They were
ordered to get up and dress and with

on the trains tomorrow will arrive
a large percentage of those who are
to attend the sessions of the Inland
Empire teachers association conven-
ton. Accordingly the preparations
for the accommodation and entertain
ment of the crowd are being rushed
to completion so that everything will
be in readiness for the throng.
Naturally the largest task in con-
nection with handling the convention
is that of providing all the teachers
with rooming and boarding accom-
modations while they are here. In
order to secure plenty of rooms for
the delegates systematic canvass of
the hotels, rooming houses and the
private homes of the city has been
made. All available rooms have been
listed and plans have been worked
out in detail.
The work of assigning the rooms is
left with a committee of which Clar-
ence Bishop is chairman and Mark
Moorhouse secretary. This commit
tee is to have headquarters at the
Commercial association rooms and up
on their arrival all teachers are re-
quested to report at that place. While
the convention is on the club rooms
will be used as headquarters for the
teachers and the various committees
