TEMPE
BRIDGE BALL TEAMS
 WINS ANOTHER GAME
"New State Team" Loses Close
 Game by Score of Seven to Six.

The bridge baseball team has an- other victory to its credit and it was a heard earned one. too. In one of the closest games that has vet been played on the bridge grounds. the bridge team yesterday defeated the New State Team by a score of sev- en to six and the result was in doubt Up to the last minute of the game The New State Team is a new or ganization in Phoenix and yesterday marked its first game in Tempe. It is composed of some of the best players in Phoenix and altogether makes a first-class team. one that gives promise of much future de- Velopment
 Yesterdays game was probably one of the best in which the bridge team has participated In the eighth inning the score stood five to six in favor of the local team when the visitors ran another score and tied. When the bridge team came up for the last half of the ninth. it was a case of make a run or play off the tie. The run was made. however. and the honors went to Tempe
 On next Sunday there will be some- thing of a departure from the usual procedure Heretofore all the game in which the prisoners have had part have been played on the bridge grounds. Next Sunday the bridge team will go to Phoenix to meet the Maroons at East Lake Park and it is believed that it is one of the few cases on record where a prison ball team has been permitted to play away from the prison or stockade, The plan was suggested by Governor Hunt q short time ago while on a visit to the bridge. He learned about the weekly ball game and remarked that it would be a pleasant change for the men if a few games could be arranged in Phoenix Formal appli- cation was made to the governor for permission for the bridge team to leave the stockade next Sunday for the purpose indicated and the request was promptly granted.
 A nice feature about playing in the park is that the bridge team will be able to realize a little from the gate receipts and can thereby secure bet ter ball equipment. which the team is greatly in need of.

WHERE THE MONEY GOES.

Since the battle of Manila bay the total of military expenses has been of a serious character to the tax payers of the United States. Most Americans know that it costs much more to run the affairs of the ma ton now than it did before the Spanish war; but few taxpayers even realize the cause of the great increase in taxation. Beginning with the close of the Spanish war and continuing throughout d period of uninterrupted peace, d comparison of the ordinary expenses of run ming the civil government and the cost of the war department shows q most astounding contrast.

In round numbers. since the Span ish war the war department has spent more than $500. .000,000, while the operation of the civil govern ment has cost only about $350,0O0,00O.
 It is about time to ask where the craze for military expenditure will stop. The fact that the government has to spend five times as much on the war department alone. not counting the heavy cost of the navy or of the pension list. shows what an assured peace with all foreign nations would mean to this cOun- try. It would mean to the present generation the sum of at least $5,- 900. 900. 900 that could be spent on humanitarian projects, instead of be- ing wasted on junk.-Boston Adver- tiSer.

NEWS OF MONTANA
Important Happenings Of the
Week Briefly Told.
LOSE FIGHT FOR RICHES
Montana Woman Is Now Goinq Back
to Poverty.

Washington, D. G. - A broken
hearted woman is going back to her
sick husband and three babies-and
poverty-in Butte, Mont, after losing
hard fight by six votes in the house.
She is Mrs. Katherine Macdonald.
Back in 1905 when the government
was building the Shoshone irrigation
dam she and her husband conducted
grocery store at Butte. Following
the old custom they accepted as cash
for groceries the time checks" which
contractors who worked on the dam
gave their laborers. But the con.
tractors failed. aud the MacDonalds
found they could not cash $1,000 Of
the checks. Other people who held
$4,000 more in tho checks found
themselves n similar position. The
government didn't lose because the
contractors were heavily bonded. Th>
MaoDonalds. however. lost everything.
Then tho husband was taken ajax.
Mira. Macdonald came on to Wash.
inston. seeking passage Of bill grant
ing her and her husband the right to
secure part Of the contractors bond
to make good their losses. The senate
and house passed the measure Presf-
dent Taft. however, held the legisla-
ton retroactive and he voted it. Mrs.
Macdonald, pleading, got sympathetic
senators to pass 1t over the veto. Tho
house failed to override the prest
aents disapproval by Just six votes.

AS O'Rourke appeared he was con-
scious first Of something moving In
the room-a movement caught vaguely
from the corner of his eyes. Then he
heard stifled cry of fright. He had
already his revolver in his hand, SO in
slant had been the obedience of his
brain and body to the admonition OF
instinct.
He swung about with the weapon
poised, crying: "Stop!" The other
man was apparently trying to escape
by the door to the hall, but was much
too far from 1t to escape the threat
ened bullet. A Jet of fire spurted from
his hand. O'Rourke heard a crash
and clatter Of broken window-glass be.
hind him. Without delay or conscious
aim he fired and saw, still indistinctly
through pungent wreaths of smoke,
the figure reel and collapse upon
itself.
The man had hardly fallen ere
O'Rourke stood over him, with a foot
f1rm upon one arm, while he bent and
wrenched revolver from relaxing fin
gers. Then, stepping back. he took
stock Of the murderous-m minded in
truder, and saw at his feet, writhing,
coughing and splitting. Chinese
coolie-a type Of the lowest class, his
face set yellow mask, stolid, I'M
emotional, brutalized. Even then 1t
betrayed little feeling; only the slant
set black eyes burned with unquench-
able hatred as they glared up at the
conqueror. O'Rourke's bullet
had penetrated the mars chest; and
as he squfrmed and groaned through
his sharpened teeth of rat, Grim
son stain spread on the bosom of his
coarse white blouse.
Wholly COMPOUNDED, O'Rourke shook
an amazed head. A third element had
been added to the mystery with no
effect other than to render it more
opaque and dense than before
The telephone, it's raucous voice
now long since stilled, came into his
mind, and he was minded to leave the
room and find 1t, to summon aid.
Before he could move, however,
football on the veranda startled him,
and his ears We're ringing with a com
mand couched in terse, curt English:
