No Score at Eighth.

The eighth innings mad closed and

array of cyphers. Pedro was holding
his own, having struck out eight and

as he gripped the stick the fans sat up
and focused their eyes on him. Some
thing was due to happen if the Stars
I were to win. Already they had given
promise of making history, and this

hoped about a couple of yards from
the bases inviting Pedro to try and
catch them, but the big twirler was not
taking any chances. Three of the four
pitches he sent down to All Tin were
labelled by Umpire Chillingworth as
balls and the fans roared. All Tin
fouled the fifth pitch, then let the
next go by and took his base. With

and after the tumult had to some eX-

a cheer for the losers. But it was

the first sack But who cares now if
Barney Joy famed twice? All that is
remembered is that Barney Joy swat

The cheering that greeted Barney's

for seasons yet to come and oft will

Rarney's Great Hit.

When Barney JOY stepped to the box
the fans implored him to make good.
There was a roar as Barney swung at
the first but tense hush settled over
the crowd as the ball scared skyward
from the stick. He had fouled, but the
ball was safely out of reach and the
fans breathed again with relief. AS
Pedro unwound again the ball sped
down the pitching alley and Barney
made connections. With a resounding
crack the sphere and wood met ana

greyhounds, just freed from the leash,

SUPERVISORS CREATE
 CULINARY DEPARTMENT
(From Sundays DaIly.l


 With the object of cutting down the expense of feeding prisoners in the county jail, the Board of Super visors has undertaken the novel plan of conducting a culinary department, and will utilize the basement of the court house as a kitchen. This ac- tion is taken for the alleged reason that the bids for meals rendered, a few days ago, are considered too hign, which deduction is based on the price each meal costs at the County Farm. said to be II cents. The latter figure is said to cover practically the same number of peO- pie as have been confined in the county jail, in the same length of time. A range, many cooking uten- sils and other attachments are being installed in the basement, and it is expected that within ten days the new venture will be under way.
 Supporting this movement is the cost of the last year in maintaining prisoners with meals, and from which some interesting information is given. The total number of meals served last year on a basis of b cents a meal, under contract, was 31,215. and the cost S4,37O. On q basis of g cents a meal, which was the lowest bid submitted on Feb ruary l of this year, and with the above number of meals to be served, the county would be at the expense of $7,179.45. On the other nand, the Supervisors claim that if the cost does not exceed the established rate at the County Farm, the county will be at an expense of only $3,433.65, on the proportion of prisoners above enumerated. At any rate. the pro- iect is to be instituted, and with the new service the Board maintains, better food will he provided and at lesser expense than at the present time.

PROPOSED LAW IS
 ACCUSING MUCH OPPOSITION

SPOKANE, Wash, Feb. I1.-The eyes of the industrial world will be fixed on the state of Washington if the Employers Liability bill pend ing before the present Legislature becomes a law. The proposed stat ute would revolutionize the present method of paying damages for in jured employees and not only are the proprietors of industrial plants study ing the proposed measure with keen interest, but labor union leaders and advocates of industrial arbitration are considering the probable effeet of such a law.
 Under the proposed act every Hns of industry employing men around machinery or on risks deemed at an hazardous will be assessed a per eentage based upon pay rolls for the three months preceding October l of each year.
 The revenue is to be handled by a State Commission, which snail have full power to investigate all damage claims and to settle same without action at law. The powers of the commission are. most sweeping. They may compel attendance by subpoens and have practically all the power
 e c,....o,;o, Co,,r+ An aYfprSive auditing and information bureau iS provided for. The lines affected in, eude everything from printing of fees to tunnel and bridge work. i One of the alleged objectionable features is the claim that such a ! law would put premium on Inmor-
 ality because damages paid on ae- count of the death or disability or a married man are so much greater
 than in the ease of an unmarried man.
 D. T. Ham, prominent business man of Spokane, says he has talk ed with several persons who have ! observed the workings of such a
 law in England. In their opinion i the law has thrown thousands of
 married men out of work. It is understood that the proposed Wash I ington law is almost identical with the laws in effect on this point i9 England.

ARCHBISHOP RYAN IS
 CALLED TO HIS REWARD

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Feb. II. = Serene. and prepared to meet God, whom he had served so well, the Most Reverend Patrick John Ryan, D. D., L. L. D., Archbishop of Phil adelphia and Metropolitan of Penn sylv;nia, one of the greatest arch bishops on the American continent, passed away peacefully at 4:0S o'clock. this afternoon, at the arch episcopal residence, in Logan Square.
 For weeks the distinguished pre- late, who would have reached the age of eighty years, on February 20, has fought with death, but a weak heart, enfeebled with the arduOus duties of his office, could not stand the strain longer, and he passed away, breathing the benediction of "God bless you" upon those who stood by his bedside
 The four attending physicians an nouneed at 3 o'clock that the end was not far off. and an hour later, when the final struggle took place, messengers were hurried to summon the priests from the nearby Cathed- ral. As they entered the sickroom, Father Kavanaugh, the arehbishop's secretary, began the prayers for the dying, and the priests, kneeling about the deathbed, intoned the re- sponses.
 The dying arcnbishop's mind clear ed for a moment, sufficiently long to comprehend the significance of the scene, and with the words, "God bless you," he sank back, and pass ed away.
 The funeral will be held Thursday, and it is expected practically all the leading clergy of the American hier- archy will attend.
 The body will lie in state in the Cathedral, and later will be entomb- ed back of the altar of the great church. beside those of his prede- cessors. This was his wish.
 Archbishop Glennon of St. Louis will deliver the funeral oration, and Bishop Prendergast of this city will be the eelebrant of the solemn high mass.

vULTURE MINE IS
 AGAIN LARGE PRODUCER
(From Sundays Daily.)

That the Vulture mine is destined to eclipse its former record of gold production in the latter eos and early '70s. when its startling rich ness attracted the attention of the entire civilized world to the wonder ful mineral possibilities of Arizona, is the opinion of A. H. Dittmar, en- gineer, who returned yesterday from filling an extended engagement at the property. MT. Dittmar says that the new twenty stamps are dropping day and night and crushing one hun dred tons every twenty-four hours. The treatment includes the cyanide process, which is giving satisfactory results in the recovery of the values. The stamps are unusually heavy, weighing 1850 ponuds, each dropping 9S times a minute. It is doubtful if the crushing capacity of the mill is equalled by any of similar size in the entire West.
 Continuing, MT. Dittmar said: zone hundred and thirty men arc employed in the mine and mill. The main shaft is 36O feet deep and i: being pushed to greater depth a: rapidly as possible. The manage .nent is energetieally exploiting vir gin ground left untouened by th' pioneer operators who confined theil operations to the large deposit, thu richness of which was almost fab ulous.
 "Under the management of T. c Cummins, master mechanic, the nev gas engines and machinery are work ing satisfactorily and the conduct O operations is strictly on moderl methods of mining and milling.' i MT. Dittmar will return to hi former position with the Arizoni Mine Supply company in few days

 Eduardo Perez, who shot and kill ed Felieiano Cnaeon, near Congress Junction, last August, was taken to Florence. yesterday afternoon, by Sheriff Smith, under sentence of death for his crime. He is to await the decision of the Supreme Court on appeal. Perez maintained similar naughty air to Chavez, as he heard his doom pronounced, ap- parently indifferent to his fate. He whistled after reaching the jail, and appeared to be unconeerned. At the depot ne maintained his eompOsure and was pleased at having the Oppor- tunity to ride on the train.
 Under the guise of friendship he lured ChacOn up the railroad tracks from Congress Junction, and appear ed in a iovial mood when the two left the grading camp, presumably for a walk to converse on friendly topics. At a favorable time, when about 200 yards from the camp, and while both were presumably out of sight of anyone, Perez pulled a re- volver and shot his companion in the back of the head, death following instantly. He then fired another bull let into Chacon's body, and was seen by an Indian, who was lettering a short distance away. Perez then ran to Congress, about four miles dis tant, where he was captured later. | The trouble was over woman and the latter showing a preference i for Chaeon, spurred Perez to mad ness and then to taking ais rival $ life.
