TEMPE
TEMPE WINS GAME
BY A BIG MARGIN
Defeats the Pastme Team by 224
Points.
blk

The prediction was made IN these
columns last week that sometime
Tempe would win a bowling game and
the prediction has come true. Tempe
has not only won a game but I won il
by a tremendous margin and estab-
lished a new record. The contest took
place on the local alleys Tuesday ev-
ening and was between the Pastime
team and the local team. Heretofore
the Pastimes have been coming over
here and cleaning up the local players
This time, however, a new set of play
ers formed the Pastime team. To this
fact. though. can not be laid their loss.
1t wasn't that the new Phoenix team
put up a poorer game but that Tempe
put up a better one.
When the three games were over and
the totals were figured up. it was found
that Tempe was in the lead 224 pins
and had made 4 total score Of 220S,
and winning every game. This is the
highest total made by any of the teams
that have lately been engaged in the
series Of games and proves cOnclu-
siveIy that Tempe is fast coming to the
front in this line of sport

CHASED A SUSPECT.

o. L. Pickens was on his way home
Tuesday night, when he saw man
run across the alley and hike to the
tall weeds in the northwest part of
town. Suddenly the man seemed to
fall as though struck by a club. Mr..
Pickens, being one Of the special
policemen. started out To investigate,
but when he arrived within short
distance of where the man fell, the
latter jumped and ran toward the
Crismon residence. The officer exam
ined the locality where the party had
first hidden but could find nothing
but the imprint of a body on the
ground. Following up the trail Pick
ems was in time to see the man when
near the Crismon home suddenly turn
north and continue his unaccOuntable
race toward the outskirts of town,
and disappear in the distance. An
inquiry around the business sections
failed to offer a solution of the run
ner's evident desire to keep out Of
sight of the officers.

GOOD PRICES.

So far the melon growers have re-
ceived good average process for their
cantaloupes this season, and but for
the untimely rains would now all be
rolling in wealth. The weather con-
ditions have shortened the shipping
season at least ten days. which means
the loss of from 100 to $50 cars of
melons. There is no way To arrive
at the general average price to date,
as the returns are made only when
pool is disposed of and the money
turned in. 1t is practically certain
that the growers Will get better than
a dollar a crate, which means Il fair
profit. One man, who has received
"A check for large shipment, reports
that his melons brought an average
Of $50 per crate; his only regret
is that he did not have at least 100
acres in cantaloupes
While the prices continue good, the
melons have grown So rapidly. since
the rainy weather. that the jumboes

the fileds. Jumoes are the largest
melons which are not 50 saleable and
bring 4 lower price. Some of the
melons in the fields are as large as
ordinary muskmelons. II is probable
that the bulk Of the car lot shipments
