MANS TRUEST FRIEND

The dog is the only animal that is capable of disinterested affection. He is the only one that regards the human being as his companion and follows him as a friend; the only one that seems to possess natural de- sire to him and from spontaneous impulse attaches himself to man. We take the bridle from the mouth Q! the horse and turn him free into the pasture and he testifies his joy in his partly recovered liberty. We exact from the dog the service that is required of him, and he still follows us. He solicits to be con- tinued as our companion and our friend Many an expressive action tells us how much he is pleased and thankful He shares our abundance and he is content with the scantiest and most humble fare. He loves Us while living and has been known to pine away on the grave of his master-From Youatt's "On the Dog

TUBA CITY

TUBA, AriZ., Aug 19.-Sunday aft ernoOn. August 18th, at 2:15 o'clock, this region experienced two distinct earthquake shocks, the last one of half a minute duration, following one of half that time. The first shock was slight, but the second resulted ill a decided rocking of the group of Indian school buildings, although no damage was done The place be- ing so isolated advice cannot be had from surrounding points as to wheth- CT or not the tremOr was purely To- cal in it's character, or whether it ex- tended into other sections of the state. Old residents state that this was the strongest shock ever ex- perienced in this district

MESA
HEALTH RULES
 GOVERNING TOWN
pr. Drane Asks Cheerful Cooperation on the Part of the People
 of Mesa.

In order that there may be no cases Of lnfantile paralysis in Mesa and vii cinity, Dr. E. Drane. health officer. mas issued letter to the public, ask ing that everyone corporate with the authorities in taking steps to prevent infection. He says:
 With the best interests of the town at heart, and as much for the good of those who have returned from Califor- ma, we earnestly ask and insist upon the cooperation of all our citizens Without your aid little can be done. We confidently believe from our re- ports that in a few weeks Los Angeles and California will be declared free from the disease, or as nearly so as large cities ever are.
 "The baggage of all families return ing from the coast points in California will be thoroughly disinfected. This will prevent infection being brought into our homes except possibly in the instance of a child having the germs of the disease already in it's system and falls i'll from the disease
 We expect mothcrs and children un- der 15 years returning from California to remain in their homes for perrcs of twenty-one days, that in the event of a child coming down with the dis ease. it will not have an opportunity to spread. like so many of our infections do in their first stage. All adults who have recently come from California or other possible points of contagion will report this fact at once to the health | officer or city marshal. In the large majority of cases this will cause little | or no inconvenience, but is a wise pre- | caution in many instances
 1 Tt has also been decided that it will 1 be necessary to keep children under l fifteen years of age from attending 1 moving picture theaters and Sunday school and all other public gatherings | This order is now in force"
 | In pursuance to the doctors orders
 all places of public amusement in towr have signs up. prohibiting children un- 1 der fifteen from attending. The peo-
 pie generally are willing to aid the au-
 thorities in enforcing regulations, and
 it is hoped that Mesa will escape with out a single case of the dreaded chil-
 dren's disease. The fact that the state l board of health has sent officers tC Yuma Parker and Needles to meet al trains and report on incoming tourists will make the work of the local officers | that much easier
 In addition to excluding the childrer from the picture shows and closing tho | Sunday schools, several picnic parties that had been proposed for the young l folks have been indefinitely postponed

TEMPE
MESA AGAIN LOSES
 TO THE TEMPE TEAM
Score Stands Seven to Ten After a
 Hard Fought Game.

For the sixth time this season the Tempe ball team yesterday afternoon defeated the Mesa aggregation after a hard fought battle ending with the score of seven to two. There seems to be some sort of a hoodoo ac- cOmpanying the local boys for nearly every game they have held the small end of the score until the last two or three innings. Mesa still holds that she did something Tempe didn't though and that is the defeating of the Globe team. Tempe went up there about three weeks ago and lost two games to the Globe boys both by close scores and Mesa went up last Sunday and won one game from them out of two That fact don't seem to help them any however, in defeating the local boys.
 In the first inning of yesterdays game Tempe scored two runs but ow- ing to a change in the grounds the scoring hit was called a foul Mesa scored two runs between that time and the eighth inning leaving Tempe with none to it's credit It certainly looked like a shut cut game bat all
  it was all off The local boys scored three runs thai inning and four ir the ninth. Williams of Mesa at the bat knocked cut a three bagger with none out but nobody could bring him on home so there stood the score | once more repeated, seven to two in | favor of Tempe
 Tempe lined Ip as follows: Pine. catcher; Mui!ca and Spikes, pitcher {: | Griffen, frs base: Easaw, second base; Mouer. third base; Spikes and 1 Mullen shOrt stop, Buck, left field | Oviedo, center ficl.i: Hegi rignt fled The team was gathered together on un- usually short notice but despite that fact they played a good game of ball all the way through
 The next game in which the Tempe boys will figure is the one to be played next Sunday on the new Polk street grounds in Phoenix. This is the initial game of the grounds and no doubt will be exceedingly interest ing. The last game played went tC Phoenix with a score of two to one but previous to that Tempe took two from them. It is hoped by botf | Tempe fans and players that the new T adventure which the Phoenix enthusi- I asts are undertaking will prove ( success in connection with the new i grounds they are constructing

NO SHOW IN TOWN

The Jones brothers circus which was billed to show in Tempe tomor- row afternoon and night has been forced to give up the engagement as far as Tempe itself is concerned. However, the advance agent con- cluded that as the date was already set and no other place could be se- cured to show in while on the way to Ray where they show Sunday the best they could do would be to show outside the city limits. The cause of the removal of the show is due to the city officials who are rigidly enforc- ing the state quarantine. No chance whatever is being taken that will spread infantile paralysis in Tempe hence the cancelling of the show date. The place upon which the agent has decided to show is near the old Win chester Miller ranch east of town.
