Varsity Team on Edge-They Play
the Game For the Games Sake.
There is no royal road to a thorough
knowledge of American college foot
ball. The preparation of the varsity
eleven is long and hard. The mills of
the coaches grind slowly, and they
grind exceedingly fine. There is moth
ing in store for much of the good ma
terial that in the end must be rele-
gated to the side line. These men,
wrapped in gray blankets. who line
the low fence surrounding the field
on the day Of the big game, are the
scrubs, or second team men.
There is paradox in their situation
their only chance for personal glory
lies in the defeat Of the varsity eleven.
There comes time in many big game
when coach, realizing that the day is
lost. that his varsity men have done
their utmost to no purpose and are be-
ing swept steadily down the field, will
throw into the game scrub after
scrub, hoping against hope that these
men will play better than they really
have right to and so turn the tide.
And even ten seconds in the big game
give the scrub his letter.
So it is in after years that one may
point out many a wearer Of the letter
who was not nearly so good a football
player as many scrubs. 1t has hap
pened, too, that man has fought for
years in the hope of making the eleven.

Even scrubs take their triumphs
and their disappointmentS differently.
There are not few who are proud to
have been on the second team in the
year that the first eleven swept all
before it. They have no varsity let
ter, but the discriminating know that
they We're better players than some
Of the varsity men Of other years.
There are other scrubs who bemoan
the fact that they were not in college
when the general average Of the play
ers was low and they would have
been almost certain to make the first
team Be it said, however, for the
honor Of the second team that in
stances of the latter type are rare.

HER LIKING FOR MESA WA6= ALMOST 4 PASSION
Preferred Cottage Here to Her Big
 Home in Los Angeles.

TAe-nineral of Mrs O. P. Dawley took place. from the family residence at 30 o'clock this afternoon and was had long known and admired her. At 2: 50 the body. previously prepared for burial by Hodnett Burton, was placed on the train and taken to Phoenix. A number of Mrs. Eawley's most intimate associates accom- panied the relatives on the sad jour ney to the graveside.
 The body was inferred in a Phoe- nix cemetery by the side of a brother. William Tweed, who died number of years ago.
 Mrs. Dawiey left two sisters and two brothers. to hour her loss. The sisters. are Mrs. Emily Aubury, who was present during the last illness and death of Mrs. Dawley. and Mrs. Baird, wife of Captain William Baird. who came all the way from Annapolis, Md, arriving several hours after her sis ter had passed away, and Mrs. Carter wife of General W. H. Carter, who is with her husband in the Philippines.
 Mrs. Olive Pratt Dawley was the daughter of Judge c. A. Tweed, and was born in Pensacola, Florida. Judge Tweed came to Arizona in 1870. and was located at Yuma. He was ap- pointed judge of the supreme court for the territory and served on the bench two terms.

She owned her own property here and lived in a small cottage. pre- ferring her home here to one in Los Angeles. where she could have had many more comforts. Her devotion to Mesa and her pride in it's growth amounted to a passion.

FALLING N AGONY
 DIES FROM APolEM
It Was Thought at First He Had Had
 Taken Poison.

w. F. Obenshain. an employe of Max Viault in the local flour mills fell writing to the floor yesterday morning shortly after he had begun his days work and lay there frothing at the mouth. apparently the throes of mortal agony. Dr. Drane and Dr. Nelson were summoned and the suf- fering man was removed to a small room which he occupied near the mill He died about an hour later The at- tending physicians pronounced his death due to apoplexy.
 From the nature of Obenshain's seizure and the somewhat unusual symptoms attending it. the first thought was that he had taken poison, although it was conceded that a man wishing to take his own life would more probably remain in the retire. ment of his room, or at least not un- dertake his customary days employ ment.
 The man was not we'll known in Mesa, inasmuch as he had been in town only a couple of months. No one was able to say, therefore, whether or not he had been previously suo- ject to similar attacks. He was not especially communicative. and little is known of him except that he has a family somewhere in the east.
 Because of the fact that he was without money, the body was turned over to Constable Brown for burial at the county's expense.

Nurses and physicians were very kind and devot- ed. and Mrs. Blount came to love and esteem them very highly. Of late Mrs. Blount had been very sleepless. But on the last night she went to sleep at II o'clock The nurses looked in at intervals and she appeared to be resting sweetly. About o'clock, upon closer examination it was found that she had, while apparently asleep. si- lently slipped away. Mrs. Blount's love of God and her perfect confidence in the Heavenly Fathers love had pre- ciuded all fear of death. She had that perfect love which casteth out fear. Besides her husband and her four chil- dren Mrs. Blount leaves only two brothers. too far away to be present on this occasion. An only sister died about 1891, leaving one boy about five years of age. whom Mrs. Blount. while yet a teacher. cared for as a mother until able to be cared for by his own father. Mrs. Blount passed to her heavenly reward early in the morning of January F, 1910. being nearly forty seven years of age"
 The songs that were sung yesterday were those best loved by her and often repeated by her even until the end, were: Nearer. My God. to Thee" Lead, Kindly Light" and Home, Sweet Home"

 N LIFE 1T FLORENCE
Mesa Visitor Seems Them in an Un- . usual Light.

The towns out along the eastern ex- tremity of the Phoenix and Eastern road are enjoying a period of great prosperity. according to G. L. Young who returned yesterday from sev. eral days visit to the towns of Flor ence. Ray. Kelvin and winkleman.
 He first stopped in Florence for twenty-four hours and saw. the town the country and the new penitentiary This last was of considerable inter- est. and Mir. Young may claim credit for having seen it from rather a diff ferent point of view than that of the usual visitor.
 Most of the convicts seemed to be enjoying life immensely. he found Good nature and contentment abound. Some were resting happily in various corners of-the prison enclosure; oth- CTS were strolling leisurely about in the sunlight: still others were giving enthusiastic attention to game of baseball. All seemed to be drawing full pay and overtime of all that life could give them. He saw prisoners. happily reinstated after being released into the cold world. Those, he be- Heved, were actually lonesome outside the penitentiary enclosure and were mighty glad to get back.
 Leaving Florence, MT. Young went to Kelvin and Ray. spending a day and night at the latter place. He found both towns booming. The in- habitants are happy in the expected early completion of the standard gauge tracks from Kelvin. a matter of three or four weeks.

ROOF OF THE WORLD
 IN THE SECOND ACT
A Splendid Scene Laid in the Rocky
 Mountains.

The pictorial side of 'The Great Di- vide" in which a special company is to appear at the Vance opera house next Saturday night, January Is, is said to be strikingly fascinating. The first two scenes are full of the atmos- phere and color of the boundless west. pervaded by the spirit of mountains and plains. The first act setting rep resents a cabin on a cactus ranch in southern Arizona. The second act shows the roof of the world wild. magnificent spot at the top of the Rockies. Here on the great continent al divide is foughtS out the conflict between the hero and the heroine-he. typifying the unfettered. lawless free- dom of the mountain and desert; she. reflecting the Puritan ideals of her New England home. The grandeur of the scenes gives an almost epic back ground to this struggle of entrusted national temperaments of east and west. Stephen Ghents abode in the Cordilleras overlooking yawning canyon and. spread out before it is an impressive vista of vast distance across the mountain tops.
 It was just such a scene as this viewed in all it's gorgeous coloring from moon to sunset, that inspired the imagination of William Vaughn Moody to write this drama of "The Great Divide." which was instantly hailed upon it's presentation in New York city as the great American play" everyone has been praying. for. MT. Moody is college professor. a teacher of literature in the University of Chicago and has been writing poetic dramas along classical Greek lines. but the. voice of the west spoke to him one summer day on the top of the continental divide, and he brought back it's utterances to the east and west. the north and south. in the most notable drama of the past half century.

Bills are out announcing ball game between the Normal and the Phoenix High school teams for this coming Sat- urday Double interests centers in this contest; it is the opening game of the league and it is between two teams goaded to the last effort by the spirit of intense rivalry which prevails There is no discounting the fact that the Normal had rather defeat Phoe- nix High than any other team. while the only victory Phoenix High really does enjoy is when the Normalites suffer. The Normal team has been hard at work along the same lines as last week and hopes to be in much better form with warm weather prac- tice.
