H. D. Ross of Prescott
 for Supreme Judge

Several able and prominent lawyers of Arizona have been mentioned i'll connection with the very important position oi Supreme Judge of the State oi Arizona among them. H. D. Ross, district attorney of Yavapal county, and while the Courier has no disposition to dictate it's nominees to the democratic par ty, or to even suggest then, this paper deems 1t a matter of local pride, when man so eminently fitted for a position is mentioned m conect1on there with, for his home paper to seize the appor tunity to say good word in his behalf. M. Ross IS President of the Bar Association of North ern Arizona, and is recognized by the bar throughout the ter ritory as lawyer of far more than ordinary afility. Further, it is generally conceded that he IS logically in line for one of the Supreme court judges of the state of Arizona. He Is no new or untrled quantity, as he has resided in northern Arizona since 1885, and has practiced law in all the counties; for three terms has he most efficiently served this county as district attorney; was district attorney in Coco nino county for one term; was a member of the legislature from COcOn1no county; was register of the United States Land Office in Prescott under President Cleve- land and has done his whole du
 ty and thoroughly proved his efficiency in all of these positions. Further, he is man ofthat even and unruffled temperament SC essential in judge. Should he be elected as one of the supreme judges of the State of Arizona, he will honor the position as much as the position will honor him, tor he and the position will exactly tally. He has always been democrat, a regular party wheel horse, and is a progressive among the progessives. Pres colt Courier.

How Baseballs Are Made.

"Outwardly the IO-cent ball bears a close resemblance to the $1 ball, but as every boy knows there is a vast difference in the life" and durability of the two spheres. The center of the cheap ball IS made of ground-up car pet bags pressed into a core by machinery. Over this core string is wound-a very little string compared to the quantity used in winding one of the protession- al league balls-and then the un finished article is sent to the room where the women sewers put the covers on, the seam be- ing drawn together by hand" /"

WINSLOW FIFE AND DRUM BAND FOR

Famous Musical Organization From Arizona Town, With Forty Pieces, Has Band wagon Costing Three Thou sand.

Arrangements have a bout been completed whereby the fla nous Fife and Drum band of Wlnslow, Ariz., will be able to be present at the coming state talr at Albuquerque. Tom He's ser, manager, ani John Dona hue, leader have been at work during the last month making all necessary provisions for the trip. The band comprises about forty pieces and the magnificent band wagon, just completed at a cost of over $3,OOO, will form a great part of the parade. Over two thousand fans will acco m- pany the band from Winslow and they will make themselves heard at the big fair. Tom Hes ser says that Navajo county is proud of the1r band and that Donahue Is a real sure enough leader.-AIbnquerque Journal.

erent product. In the first place the construction of this ball has been undergoing an evolution for years. At the present time there IS much complaint from some who would have few runs and quick game, on account of the way in which the batters are hitting this new cork center ball. The complaint is heard that the ball is too fast and runs too ire quent. The explanations of the experts is that a ball hit on the ground with the old one, but that a ball hit in the air goes farther, thus accounting for the great number of extra base hits made in recent years"
 "Some years ago the balls were made with rubber centers. Then m response to a demand tor more runs to make the game interest ing to the spectators the experi- ment was tried of making a ball with small piece of cork in the center, in the heart of the rub Der core. This produced little of the desired effect, and every year from that time the relative sizes of the rubber and the cork in the center of the spheres has been changed until the present fast ball was evolved.

The Humboldt valley has the finest
land in the state. and anything in
the agricultural line can be pro-
duced if properly put under irri-
cation and this is what the govern
mert engineers propose to do. With
T. exception of a few favorable
places along the river the water at
the present time is used to irri-
gate hay land or big stock ranches
and this is accomplished by using
the food waters without any great
exertion on the part of the owners
of the land. With the government
irrigation project, as proposed by
the engineers, in operation, where
now is only a narrow strip of land
under irrigation, there will be farms
covering many miles of territory
on each side of the river. This land
is a fine loamy soil capable of pro
ducing not only all the agricul.
tural products of the temperate zone
but the different varieties of fruits
as well.

NEAR DEATH
FROM The BITE OF
A RATTLESNAKE

Nj. J. Brennan, working in the
Camp Dupont section about / )
miles northeast of Searchlight, had
narrow escape from death Tues
day forenoon, Mr.. Brennan has
been working on a group of claims
in that neighborhood in company
with Thomas Bartcgee and Her
man Wesselhoft.
About II o'clock Tuesday fore
noon Brennan being thirsty, went
into a tunnel that was used as a
ort of cellar to make some
lemonade. Across the tunnel there
is a door with sill about four
inches high. After squeezing the
Juice from the lemons he threw
the rinds on the floor near the
door After taking his drink he
started to leave the tunnel and
stopped to pick up the rinds and
throw them outside when rattle
snake which was lying behind the
door sprang out without warning
and caught the man on the finger
Brennan shot the snake and then
proceeded to do what he could to
