Memphis has a pitcher-or did have
one until the Brooklyn outfit put him
out of business in an exhibition game
who bids fair to make the baseball II
world take notice of him. Not because
he is such a blnger of a pitcher,
though. It's his size. He is six feet
eight inches in his socks, and they say
he can almost reach from first to third
without taking his foot off the slab.
He couldn't field hunts. That's what
queered him, for when the Brooklynites
found II out, they fed him hunts till
the cows came home. The name of
the gent is Reno Love.

HOUSE
 BADLY BURNED
Property at Seventh and Jefferson Street, Hotel for Colored People, Prac- tically Destroyed at Early Hour This Morning

About 1;20 o'clock this morning fire broke out in the roof of a lodg- ing house on the corner of Seventh and Jefferson streets. from some cause that could not be learned last night Though rain was falling heavily at the time and the fire de- partment worked assiduously, it seemed almost impossible to quench the blaze.
 The building was constructed of adobe. with a shingle roof. Probably the walls will not be injured be- yond repair, but the roof is praCti- cally destroyed. with much of the contents of the house. though some furniture was saved. The night was dark and the streets surrounding were muddy. as the location is be- yond the limits of the paved district. and rain had been falling for several hours
 The property belonged to John E.. Lewis, proprietor of the Fashion bar bershop. who built it a year or so ago for the express purpose of hay ing a suitable public house for the entertainment of the transient peo- pie of his race who found difficulty in securing such accommodations in the hotels of the city.

KINNEY BILL
 FALLS DOWN
It Has Been Decided, Though Not Yet Official ly Announced That the Measure Cannot Be Sub mitted to the Voters

The Kinney bill has gone by the board. It will not be submitted to the voters next November, though the woman suffrage amendment will be submitted. This statement has not yet been officially made, but it ic nevertheless the fact.
 The Kinney bill fails because of the failure to secure the petition from Swansea for filing within the required time. Without the Swansea petition the bill lacked thirty sigma lures. There were forty-five sigma lures attached to the Swansea docu- ment, but that was lost and has not, sc far as known. been found Any way, it has not been presented at the office of the secretary of state.
 It was thought by the friends of the bill that the trouble might be overcome by the presentation of af- fidavits, showing that the petition contained the forty-five signatures, and that they had been affixed with in the required time. The attorney generals office has decided, however, that that may not be done.

 NO BILL RETURNED
Prise Grand Jury Refuses to Take
 Part in Family Affair.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 29.-The grand jury tonight refused to find an indictment against Mrs Caroline Perkins, William Patterson and Pat rick Walsh, who were arrested at New York last Friday charged by Nicholas J. McNamara, retired banker, with stealing his automobile. McNamara said tonight he intended to leave for New York by special train tomorrow in the hope of reach- ing there before August 3, the date set for the hearing.
 The three prisoners were servants of McNamara at a suburb of san Francisco. They left with Mrs Me Namara in an automobile and were traced by stream of checks drawn by Mrs. McNamara on her bank ac- count here. McNamara charges that Mrs. Perkins obtained an influence over his wife which he cannot ex- plain. The first public notice of their encouragement was an advertisement published by Mrs. McNamara about two months ago in which she warned ito whom 1t may concern" that she would not be further responsible for her husbands debts McNamara is much more anxious to win back his wife than to press charges against the servants.

SWEENEY HOME
 FROM FRISCO
Had a Delightful Outing of Five Weeks and Met Many Old Friends; City Is Dull But Preparing for Big Business

j. I. Sweeney. assistant cashier of the National Bank of Arizona returned yesterday morning from q vacation of i've weeks on the coast most of which time was spent in San Francisco where his family remains for the present. That cit.y was MT. Sweeneys boyhood hcme anG he has not visited it before for about ten years, except for just a day at time on business. This time he looked around thoroughly and re- newed old acquaintance with boyhood scenes as well as the friendships of other years.
 He was there when the Elks went through and the Arizona commission selected the site for the Arizona build ing so of course he saw host of home folks. One man the older residents here will be glad to hear from is Dr. Fschman warm friend of MT. SWee- nev for many years and who took a deal of pleasure in showing him the sights oi the newer San Francisco. Mir. Eschman formerly owned and con ducted the drug store in the corner of Center and Washington streets now known as the Central but then known as the tTd1ueU 1ilN- NIL I-soNliiiie'i moved from here to San Francisco many years ago and established what came to he known as the Snake drug store. through the fact that it's show windows were filled with snakes of many kinds, kept as an advertisement The Snake drug store together with the snakes went up in the big fire and MT Eschman lost great deal of money. He is again in business how ever and doing well, retaining the same name for his drug store. though he has noL restockcd his snakes
 Mir. Sweeney says San Francisco is rather quiet in a business way and but little has been done toward the big eX- position, that is little that is visible, though world of work has been ac- complished in the planning and pre- liminaries. But the dullness is only the lull before the storm and it will surely be a lively place from this fall forward until the big show is over

RENO. July 29-Thomas Nelson of Reno, w. w. Booth, of Tonopah anu William MCGill of Ely were nOminated for republican presidential electors from this state at the second state convention, held here today The nom nations for electors were omitted at the first convention of republicans be- cause it was thought that the new primary law required such nomina- tions to be made at the September primaries. To make sure, however a second convention was called to supply the omission.
 The progressive party convention re- gently nominated electors instead of waiting for primaries and thus caused apprehension lest no regular republi- can electors would be permitted on the oHcial ballot in November The law concerning nominations is still in doubt and the supreme court has been asked to give an interpretation of the new primary law.

HOME FROM AN
 EASTERN TRIP
Miss Gilchrist Spent Profit able Vacation Ill Studying Charities and Correction Work in Chicago, Cleve- land and Indianapolis

Miss Chrissie Gilchrist. the directing spirit in the work of the Associated Charities in this city. has returned from a busy vacation or outing trip of about five weeks in the east. Though nearly all her time was de- voted to d study of matters in line with her work and it kept her busy. it was nevertheless relaxation and rccre- ation and she returns feeling much better for the diversion.
 Her objective point when she left was Cleveland where she went to at tend the annual conference of the Ma tional Association of Charities and Corrections as the representative of Mayor Christy and the county board of supervisors. It was a very inter esting and enlightening convention and she learned a great deal that will be helpful in her work here.
 Subsequently she made a study of the public institutions, charity organ izations and other things pertaining to work of the nature she is engaged in, in Cleveland Indianapolis and Chi Cago. This was very Illuminating and interesting. She says that she found better organization and greater eff Ciency in Indianapolis. Cleveland was next and Chicago the most loosely handled of the three places.
 This condition she says is no reflec- tion on the managers of the work in the two larger cities but is due solely to their greater population. The smaller the town the better the organ ization, the greater the acquaintance and cooperation between the person mel of the managers and the closer the check kept on the operations of the many employed in a subordinate ca pacity The charity workers in the big cities are as capable and consci- entious IS anywhere but they have a more cumbersome machine and the nature of it is such that it can he more easily taken advantage of by evil disposed persons. That it is sometimes taken advantage of even ir so small place as Phoenix is unfor- tunately true.
 On her way home Miss Gilchris stopped in Kahoka, Mo. where she visited with the parents of the lat, Miss Gertrude Trump. whose ac- quaintance she formed when the, visited Phoenix and with Mis-. Trunmp's sister. Mrs Condit of New Jersey, who was also here for a time

APPEAL ID THE
 REFERENDUM
Railroads Throughout the State Yesterday Began the Circulation of Peti-
 tions for Submission of Five New Laws to People

The railroads of the state have de- Cided to secure if possible an eXpres- sion of the sentiment of the voters of the state in respect of the five laws passed by the legislature affecting rail road opratiOn. They desire that the five laws in question shall be submit ted to referendum of the people at the next election and if they endorse the legislation well and good; other wise it will drop into the waste bas- ket
 With that object in view representa- tives of the railroads all over the state. yesterday took the field. each armed with five petitions. one for each law. To get action they will have to secure enough signatures to equal five per cent of the votes cast for governor at the last election and the petitions must be filed with the secretary of state within ninety days after the adjournment of the legisla- turc.
 The laws in question are as follows The law requiring electric headlights on all locomotives; the law requiring the employment of experienced men only in train service, providing that all engineers must have served three years as firemen and all conductors three years as brakemen; the law fix ing the number of men in crews of trains and engines when rupning alone; the law prohibiting a charse of more han three cents a mile railroad fare; and the law requiring a semi monthly payday
 There is no secrecy about the move ment In fact. the railroad men are rather anxious for publicity believing that they can easily secure the sig natures wanted and desiring to finish up the business as expedtiousy as possible
