FIRE IN POOL HALL

Yesterday morning, when the Parlor Pool Hall of John A Williams was opened, the floor was found blazing in one place and the room was filled with smoke. The fire was easily ex- tinguished, the only damage being a big hole in the floor. A couple of hours more and there would probably have been a big conflagration, as the hall is in the center of the south side of Main street business section The fire originated from a cigarette thrown into a wooden box filled with sawdust, which had been used as a spittoon. This class of cuspidor is not consid-
 cred lawful and will be strictly barred
 in the future from all business houses.

Mir Duncan says: one night l went to be tired out from a unusually long jaunt. having the day before attempt ed to shoot a turkey and killed my horse instead. The result was that awoke long after daylight. As I arose l saw q big black bear between me and my gun. Heavens. but I was scared.

 MT. Duncan concludes his narrative by saving: Anyone who suddenly comes face ti face with bear should double up their fists and keep hitting him on the nose This will cause the bear to blink. Continuous hitting will cause the blinkS to occur so ire

THE PARSONAGE DEBT

When the Baptist parsonage was erected. it was placed on the extreme edge of the lot used for the building
 This allowed no room for a porch from that side of the house. although one was much to be desired as protection from the sun. To remedy this, a strip of ground thirteen feet wide was pur- chased from the owner of the adjoin- ing lot On securing this, porch was built to the parsonage. with a bathroom at the back end. The cost of the extra land, porch and the bath facilities amounted to over five hun dred dollars. All of the indebtedness was paid but few dollars, and Rev. S. w. Gage conceived the idea of ask

CRUMP HOME FROM
 VISIT TO THE COAST
Meets Former Phoenix People Who Are Weaned and Afraid to
 Come Back.

William P. Crump. Phoenix com mission merchant. returned yesterday from five days trip to Los Angeles. Cal, and vicinity. While gone he made successful arrangements to have a car of mixed California fruits and vegetables that are at present scarce In the Phoenix market, sent him every ten days. or Oftener, if necessary. His first car will arrive next Friday.
 He was accompanied on the trfp by his son, Tom, and they managed to see hurriedly several of the most Important beaches around Los Ange- les. From Long Beach they took a steamer to San Pedro and saw the magnificent harbOr the business in terestS Of Los Angeles are erecting there. Of course he took bath in the ocean, not so much because he needed 1t, as that he wanted to com. pare bathing in the Pacific ocean with the bathing he enjoyed in the Atlantic when he lived in New England fifteen years ago. After the lapse of a de- cade and half. he says the two things that stand out most promin- ently in the comparison are that the waves of the two oceans are just as strong and the water is just as salty
 Another thing he discovered after rest of fifteen years. was that when accompanied by a six year old boy. he was just as susceptible to the do vices that are indigenous % the sea shore resort that separates one from his nickels and dimes. as he was Of yore.
 He met Dr. Duffield, John Dennis and many former residents of phOe- nix. In fact. to one who has lived here as long as MT. Crump and who knows so many of the older resi- dents. it is impossible to walk abo-t very much on the streets of Los An- geles without meeting some former resident of Phoenix. They all re. joice in the prosperity that has .c.na to their former home. some to the extent of not wishing to return, even for visit. for fear their regret at parting from their former holdings will embitter their declining years.
 While his trip was primarily q busi- ness one ard. necessarily. a hurried one, he enjoyed it immensely as did his boy. The latter wanted to stay in Venice and bump the bumps" the balance of the summer.

FARMERS LAND
 Is FULL OF HOLES
Sand Beneath Top Soil Sinks Away
 in Places.

The strange behavior of the farm of N K. Farmer. adjoining Yahola. fifteen miles west of this city has alarmed the people in that village. says the Albuquerque. N. NJ, Daily lageHerald. Mysterious holes began to appear in MT. Farmers fields sev- eral weeks ago. some of them sinking to a depth of ten feet and covering the fields so thickly as to unfit them either for cultivation or for use as pasture
 Mir Farmer believes the strange falling away of the land is due to the result of the recent drought. The farm lies in d bend of the Arkansas river. The soil is about twelve feet deep and below that is soil. Farmers theory is that the low stage of the river sucked water and sand from un- der the soil which sank, giving swisss cheese appearance to his farm. He is attempting to level his land by hauling soil from adjoining farms
