WHEN THE BOSS WAS BossEp
Sewerage Expert Did Not Seem Anv
thing Remarkable to Irish Fore
man Of laborers.

Alexander Potter, the sewerage e1
pert. is a small and quiet-looking man
says the New York Press. He bought
place In the country a while ago
and Mrs. Potter took charge of recon
structing 1T. She bossed the jot
nearly every day. and hired and fired
laborers herself. Workmen were
scarce in the neighborhood. and pretty
nearly everyone who came along was
sure of job. None of those who were
at work changing the landscape ever
saw Mr.. Potter. He was too busy in
town to more than take Sunday look
at what had been done during the
week.
One day, though. Potter was out OF
sorts and decided to stay at home and
get close to nature with his wife's
gang OF Italians. In the oldest clothes
he could find he Joined the diggers
He was thinking of what fine shovel
er he was when some one behind him
gave him an ungentle kick. He
dropped his shovel and swung around
A big Irishman was glowering down
at MIN.
"Yeesll fill yer shovel better than
thot or yen fill yer coat an git out.a
here" the Irishman said in q voice OF
authority.
Potter realized that he had been
taken for new man on the Job and
made no reply. The next two hours
he worked harder than he ever had in
his life before. He did not dare quit
until Mrs. Potter appeared. At last
she came.

DEAR" she called out as she ap
preached.
The big Irishman did not quite
tumble" gwen then; but he did when
he saw his new iaborer walk of to the
house with the LADY boss" Then he
spent the remainder of the day most
unhappily. !.
It was lucky hour for that Irish
man. though. Potter subsequently
made him the foreman on some of his
biggest jobs.

reared the incensed conductor on the
Cedar line. Eyes, mean you! There's
lots of vacant room between you and

The little man with the sandy mus
tache unsteadily shook his head.
"Au the room tha'ss there will shtay

"Nothing's going to hurt you." cried
the conductor.
''Nothing's going to hurt me-" the
little man repeated. "Whash you call

with an unsteady finger at the wom-

VALLEY LEAGUE OF
 BASEBALL TEAMS
A Commendsbe Proposition That is
 Now Being Considered.

w. N. Stevenson of Mesa. who is largely responsible for the agitation that is now going the rounds. having in view the organization of a base ball league, was a visitor here yesterday afternoon in an endeavOr to find out just how much interest might be stir red up in Tempe. MT. Sterverson's s plan was outlined in The Republican yesterday. Briefly it is to organize a league Of d team from each town. Mesa, Tempe and Phoenix. these three teams 10 play a series of nine games in as many weeks for q loving cup to be valued at sl50 and to be purchased by each town donating $50 toward tliat end.
 Mesa has already come through and Il is up to the other two towns to do likewise. IL is proposed to have all games Of the league played on Satur- day. Sunday baseball will be strictly tabooed by the league. There will be no restrictions as to who may be mem- bers of the teams and there is ever reason why Tempe should get busy, organize q good team and emulate the Normal organization of this year
