The last week of tinkerine and tuning has arrived for the riders in the first of the state fair attrac- tions, the San Diego to Phoenix mo- torcycle race, between members of the clubs of those two cities The crack of a pistol in the hands of the starter will sound at five thirty next Friday morning on Main street in san Diego. and the first rider of the thirty to start will be off to- ward the hills that he must climb the deserts he must cross. the creeks he will have to ford and the final checking he will have to go through before he finishes in Phoenix two days later. Thereafter at intervals of a minute the other twenty-nine will be sent away toward Phoenix and the greatest motorcycle com petition ever designed will be on
 As a trial for man and machine the race will be unsurpa ssed No machine has come through on trial trips without experiencing some of the sensations of racing-the jars and bumps, the more or less severe breaks and repairs With the possi- bility of being passed at any time the riders will ride much faster than in any trial trip, and the spills and breaks will be much more numerous That the ranks of the racers will be decimated. at least. is the confident prediction of all who have been over even part of the road.
 Special preparations will be made by the Phoenix club to care for the race at this end. The local associa- ton will have the appointment of checkers for the last set of controls between this city and Yuma. Then guards must be named to keep the streets clear in Phoenix while the speeders are shooting down the asphalt bound for the corner of Adams and Central avenue where the final check in will be made. Inn mense crowds will line the streets. If the interest actually is as big as predicted the scene will much re- semble that at the finish of the ori- ginal Republican cup race in 1908 when Col. Fenners White Steamer whirled down Adams street between thousands of excited fans who had stobd in line all afternoon waiting to see this sturdy winner who had successfully bucked the desert.
 Chief of Police Moore will rely much on his motorcycle policemen to keep the streets cleared of passers by while the motorcycles are buzz ing by In this he will be assisted by every member of the Phoenix club. which constitutes itself q spe- cial protective association on this occasion.
 Now about the dope for the race.

WORLD of SPORT
TOPPERWEINS HERE EN ROUTE
 FOR RAY; RETURN ID THE FAIR
Mrs. Ad Will Walk Away With Trap Premiums # Local Experts Do
 Not Mind Their Several Eyes.

The Topperweins were in Phoenix yesterday en route to Ray for their exhibition shoot with the live wire gun club of that town. The hard shooting pair will return to Phoenix the latter part of the week to fix up for their special exhibition to the shot gun fans at the Phoenix gun club matches at the state fair grounds
 While she is here, Mrs Topperwein will engage in a trap tournament with members of the local club And such fancy trappiSts as De Mund. TWitchell, Galpin and others must look to their shooting or this ac- curate eyed lady will swamp them with her eXpertness and take away all the prizes. For beside being wonderful trick and fancy shot, she is a consistent performer at the trap. Everywhere she has appeared she has made fine scores and in many instances beaten professional shots of the opposite sex.
 Among her scores are go out of 100 at an open tournament in Kan sas City: 245 out of 25O; 3S5 out of 400; ABA out of 45O: 4S5 out of 800 targets at unknown angles (this record she shot at sixteen yards, the time occupied being two hours and twenty-five minutes) She has scored 195 targets in open tourna- ment. and has made a straight run of 123 targets. On several occa- sions she has broken 100 straight or better. She has also won many averages in open competition at the trap. something no other lady shot has ever. done.
 During 1906 Mrs. TOpperwein shot at a total of 1S,015 targets under various conditions breaking 166O0, nearly half of this number being shot at regular tournaments.
 Her longest run for 1907 was made at Sulphur, I. T.. when she scored 113 straight.
 At San Antonio, Texas. July 18 1908, Mrs TOpperWein broke 961 out of 1000 targets thrown from regula tion traps at unknown angles In performing this feat she made many long runs, the longest being III targets.
 At the big Texas State shoot, Mrs. Topperwein won high professional average breaking 461 out of 490 targets To do this she had to outshoot big field including some of the best men shots in the coun- try.
 Mrs. Topperwein is the only lady in the world who ever had the

PHOENIX FANS
 ASSOCIATION
Will Handle CIub-Tempo- rary Organization Per fected Last Night With Clay Parker as Chairman, Will Promote Games

Business men management seems now assured for the Phoenix base pan club, after the stirring organi zdtiOn meeting at the board of trade last evening. It was d meeting of construction and the dozen or more representative business men fans started work on a solid basis. They took as d foundation the fact that Phoenix is a live baseball town. will support the game properly and all that is needed is a regular manage Inent to back the team. Clay Parker acted as chairman of the temporary organization and will likely be the chairman of the board of directors of the association, when that body iS formed at called meeting the same place. the same time tomorrow night.
 Captain Weston Ritchie started the ball rolling with report of his management for the two games since Sunday. October 19. He showed by his report that the people of Phoenix will return the support if the team Iuts up good ball In the proceeds oi the two games Ritchie found enough to pay all expenses and clear the back salaries or the players, so that now the team stands practically on an even footing.
 As an earnest of their intention to make things a go, the commission that met last night decided to take Harry Cheeks offer up and try to set the arrangements all made for the ten game series here fair week. In order that the team coming from Los Angeles may travel on the cheap excursion rate to the fair they will have to come on Saturday, playing tneir first game on Sunday, instead CT on Friday as has been scheduled. Not satisfied with depending on the Cheek team for the fair we@l games, Eitchie wired to Manager Harry Wolverton of the Sacramento team 10 ask for his support In case tha Cheek negotiations fall through. Vol Ecrton may be able to bring in a team of coast leaguers who Hvill. be travelling east about the end of the week. WolvertOn is going to New York about the first of the month, and he may be persuaded to stop off with his men and give Phoenix some high class baseball.

One of the Surprises Of the Evening Was Presence Of Governor

Were on the Programme Of the Evening

Sloane and Mrs. Henry Amerland.
A pleasant surprise, not on the pro-
gramme, was the presence of Governor
Hanna at the speakers table. H. +.
Emery, the association president, sat
at the head, and with him at his table
were Governor Hanna, Watson S.
Moore, the speaker Of the evening, for
mer Secretary w. H. Day, the toast
master, John S. Watson, H. l.. Loomis,
James Holes, Chas. J. Allen, Henry
Amerland and Bertrand Allen Orr.
When the guests were assembled,
former Secretary Chas. j. Allen re-
turned thanks, and the guests seated
themselves and set to work to satisfy
the wants of the inner man. And they
found them amply and tastefully pro-
vided for, thanks to the management,
the caterers, and, most Of all. the
Women's auxiliary. The orchestra fire.
quently received hearty applause.
The material part Of the banquet
disposed of, President Emery raped
for order, and made the opening re-
marks.
Such an occasion, he said, brought
home to the people the fact that the
Y. NJ. c. A. is an institution worth
while. It's progress is shown in the
annual report. 1t has kept pace with
the city and is one Of the greatest in
struments for good which we have in
our midst. We cannot remove temp
tation from our boys pathway entire
ly. but we can train them to resist
temptation. Mr.. Emery then called on
Treasurer LOOMS for a report on the
work of the finance committee, and
I Mr.. LOOMS stated the salient facts,
showing the association in fine shape
financially.
President Emery then introduced
Governor Hanna, who was greeted
with hearty applause.

President Emery then stated thai
all the secretaries had been invited
but not all were able to attend. How
ever, he was glad to introduce w. H.
Day. who was n of the bulwarks Of
the association in the early days.
1t was thirty-one years ago, Mr..
Day said, that he first saw Fargo. He
told several stories of the old times,
and how his first impression of the
place finally induced him to come

were not always easy, and subscrip-
tlOns were harder to get than now, but
there were compensating factors, not

auxiliary. The pioneers planned and
dreamed, he said, and the present &C.
casiOn should be one of rejoicing over
the fultillment of those dreams.
AS POSTMASTER, Mr.. Day then intro
duced James Holes, a true pioneer,
who spoke on the subject, Early Days
of Fargo.
In a chatty and very interesting dis
course, Mr.. Holes told the experiences
Of the early settlers, the men and
m who, in spite of trials and dis
Couragements and hardships,. in spite
of the terrible plague of grasshoppe"s
in II, and the panic of '73, hung on
like grim death, and finally reaped
their reward in a land which blossom
ed like the rose, ana q city which is
the pride of the state. And the future
of the city is what the people make
it," he said. "a city does not grow,
it must be built"
The POSTMASTER then introduced
Bertrand Allan Orr. who gave a very
pleasing rendition Of an Irish Weaving
Song. and of Grieg's, With a Violet.
He was encored and responded with
a humorous ditty, which was much
appreciated.
In words Of the highest commenda-
ton, Mr.. Day then presented the

The annual Y. VI. c. A. banquet is
history. But in the minds of those
who attended. it will long stand out
as one of the most successful affairs
of it's kind ever held in the city of
Fargo.
In the big gymnasium plates were
laid for 200 guests. There were three
long tables, with a cross table at the
head, reserved for the speakers. Hand
some red carnations decorated the
tables and flags were draped about the
hall. At each plate was a copy of
the annual report of the association,
just published, and as souvenirs, in
honor Of those who broke the trail, a
picture Of the general secretaries from
1886 to 1909. The men of the Fargo
College Symphony orchestra, number
ing sixteen in all, furnished music
which added UNNECESSARILY to the
pleasure of the occasion.
Prizes restaurant were the caterers,
and the dinner was served by the
members of the Women's Auxiliary.

An old farmer was skeptical as
to whether people who were
miles apart could really talk to
each other over a telephone wire.
One day a near neighbor persuad-
ed the farmer to call up his wife
as a little surprise.
He put the receiver to his ear.
and shouted: Hello, Jane"
Just then a flash of lightning
caused by the heat Of the sum-
mer day struck the wire, and he
fell sprawling to the floor. The
neighbor was chagrined that the
old man should meet with such a
accident on his first trial of a
telephone, and assured him that
such a thing would not happen in
case of storms. But he would
not try again. He rose to his
feet, and shaking his head know
ingly, said:
