Next Sunday will be a great
day in Yuma for the children, as
well as many of the grown folks
who always enjoy the circus. The
children are always happy when
the circus is in town, and they

day once a year, even if the big
show does come on Sunday, al

Developing PaIo Verde
Ell Centre Press.


Development of the Palo Verde
valley has begun under the
leadership of w. F. Holt, who
met the people of the valley at
BY the last week and explained
to them the terms on which the
Southern Pacific will build a
branch line to Blythe from Clam
is on the main line.
The actual cost of the road is
estimated at 81, 100000. On this
they ask a bonus of only $780,
600, to be paid either in cash or
land, when the road is built and
the trains are running. If
paid in land rate of $50 an
acre is allowed by the railroad
company. Also, free right of
way.
These terms seemed fair to
! the crowd and when Mr.. Hobson,
president of the land company,
took the platform to raise SUBJ
scriptions, the responses came
in thick and fast. In about thirty
minutes $4,000 was pledged,
with many others to draw upon
who were not present.
The actual work of survey has
begun at Glamis station, thirty
miles east of Imperial Junction,
and already twenty miles of the
line have been run toward the
valley, coming in by way of the
old halfway house.
The line runs easterly around
Gadsden mountain and keeps on
the mesa until it reaches the old
pumping station two miles west
of Rannells; ''.then it runs in a
fairly direct line for the town of
Blythe, opposite Ehrenberg,
along the lower valley.
The railroad people agree, if
all conditions are met, to have
cars running into the valley by
October 1, 1912. No money will
be required on the pledges until
after the above date, and all the
cash will be forfeited by the
road if the road fails to get in on
time

Yuma Valley Highway

Recently a petition bearing
some two hundred signatures
was sent to the Board of Con.
troll at Phoenix, requesting that
a Territorial highway be con.
structed through the Yuma val.
ley to the Mexican boundary.
The board has directed the Ter.
ritorial Engineer to make a sur.
vey and report upon the pro-
posed. road, and some definite
action will then be taken.
This would undoubtedly be a
very commendable work upon
the Territorial highway and
the money which is to be spent
in this manner in the several
counties would not be of greater
beneft-to the Territory in gen.
eral between any two other
points than would this proposed
construction from Yuma to the
Mexican boundary. With this
done, when the road is finally
completed between Yuma and
Phoenix, and thence on to the
Grand Canyon, there would be
one continuous valuable road
leading from the international
boundary through the Yuma and
Gila valleys, and through Pheo-
nix, the capital, to the scenic
Grand Canyon in northern Ari.
zona. When such a highway is
completed there will be hum
dreds of automobiles run over

Tigers Five Full Games Behind

BY Alex. SULLIVAN.

~ HIS season has given fans more
surprises han any other in the
history OF the Diamond. II has
been one OF freak gangs. accidents and
form-reversals from the start up &c the
present.
The race In the American League has
been the queerest ever run In that or
g~an!zation. At the outset, naturally,
every one thought that the Worlds
Champion Athletics would repeat be-
cause OF the fact that they had devel-
oped perfect team-play and had so many
young stars, but to the amazement OF
all they fell right to the bottom OF the
standing while the Tigers were so far
ahead In the first month and a half
that IL looked like a walk-over for them.
The Detroiters won twenty out Of their
first twenty-five games, but when they
went on their first trip East they
boarded the toboggan and have been
having a down-hill ride ever since. /!
II weren't for the good start the Jun
gleers got they would be on a much
lower rung OF the American League
ladder n they are now. The next
four teams In line are having a bitter
fght over third place. which helps TO
keep the Bearcats from tumbiing.

shot away from the bunch and obtained
a good lead. Urged on BY his raine
TO get after Frlck, kivilt suddenly put
on more speed and managed to gain on
Frlck. All this time Sheppard was fol

Realizing that he must get going TO

finally let himself ont and quickly

within ten yards of the tape sheppard

OF yelling from the crowd he crossed
the tape a winner.
Louis scott. the little south Paterson

zap In clever style. H. defeated a
score OF distance men In sensational
style. In the opinion OF experts II was
his failure to use good Judgment in the

American record.
As the start was made the crowd
yelled for him to sprint. Instead OF
romplng along at an even pace he
OBLIGED the spectators. This caused
him to tire and lose much time during
the remainder OF the race.
