Maroon-Tempe Contest is Called Off Senators to Travel to Mesa-Troublcs of League Being Brought to Light
Nn rn n, Q tnda,-

No game today.
 The cruel words take on q new significance when they are explained thusly.
 Tempe has been aided down the long slide into oblivion. In some unaccountable manner, the team has been lost in the shuffle With six or eight men working to keep it alive it suddenly oozed out of ex- istence. Just as the town was be- ginning to resolve that whereas the team was a mighty good advertise mcnt for the teeming little place. it would be a good thing to support it, the said aggregation fades into the thin blue upper reaches of earths atmosphere Wherefor2 say. you And echo answers promptly and with out reserve.

 With the fading of Tempe. the machinery of the league becomes badly clogged with the twisted re- mains of Spikes alleged team Right now. some wise ones in Phoenix are placing their ears upon the ground in the hope Of hearing the rumble of that machinery turn to a sfckening crunch and then die out altogether When that happens they figure on doing a little merchandising and try ing 10 start it again.
 If the Glendale proposition fails to pan out. there is but one thing for the league to do. It will be neces- sary for the managers of the three remaining teams to come together and rig up schedule for the rest of the month.
 Trade Board Meet
 The board of trade is enthusias- tically back of the Phoenix team One of the members said yesterday Just as Phoenix gets a team that can play ball, and play it right this dis organizing force enters. and there's no one to play. Manager Yates and Secretary KehOe have just succeeded in giving Phoenix what fans like good baseball. They have labOred long and earnestly, and their work has gone for nothing. The park is mOrtgaged.

PINK BREAD FOR GoURMETS

The latest diet craze is to have your food as highly colOred as poss- ible. and from Germany comes the pale blue lobster the invention of d learned professor named KOrnfeId.
 Red Iobsters being too commonplace
 r. whet the iaded appetites of so- cietv diners. the professor hit upon the brilliant idea of adding an alkaIi
 to the water in which the lobsters
 are boiled. As a result they come
 out a pretty pale blue and the smart
 set are able to breathe again.
 Lohsters are not the only food that
 German aristocrats wish to be high
 lE coIored. Rose colored soup and
 tinted bread also enter into his menus.
 Apparently there is a scientific req
 son for this latest fad in diet. An
 eminent medical man gave it as his
 opinion some time ago that q person <
 character can be gauged by the kind of coIors he prefers in his foods. Thus. if you are very fond of yellow Colored foods, you are probably a person of somewhat low and vulgar tastes; but if you choose dishes of a brown or chocolate color you show yourself to be q person of refinement. A speaker at the Pure Food and Health Conference, recently held in London, pointed out the fact that very few people care for food that is quite coIorless. "Invalids are ordered cclored jellies and port wine" he said. Children prefer colOred sweets Most of us would soon tire of aII- V hite food" There ale. no doubt great possibilities in the colored- food
 idea. but it is to be hoped that our British restaurants will not feel called upon to adlpt it-Pearson,s Weekly

 Phoenix to Mesa
 The Senators will go to Mesa this afternoon for their scheduled game with the Higlanders
 Rest of Month
 The schedule for the rest of the month will probably be decided upon at meeting of the accredited man agers of teams in the valley to be held about next Tuesday. Games will probably be played in Grant Park on Sundays, with Mesa, the MaroOns and with outside teams, such as Tucson. Globe, Fl PasO. etc. This will tide the team over until the end of the season when the park will be closed until some other use is found for it. In spring. 1t is planned that the league will be re- organized with business men at the head of it, and real managers in all the teams, so that the season can be played out.

Coils p. HuntIngtOn's Foresight
and Grit Win Him a For
tune of S5O. 900 900.
u Madison 8. Pefern

- P. HUNTINGTON, the railroad
king, who left behind him a
fortune of S5O,OOO.OOO, was
born in the village of Harwinton,
Litchfield county, Conn, in 1921 His
father, though owning a small portion
Of land, was actually a common
labOrer. He had nine children, OF
whom Coils was the fifth. This boy
was the sturdiest and strongest of the
whole family, a lad immured to hard
ship and toll from the very moment
he could be turned to use as a source
Of family income. He attended the
district school for a few months and
was barely able to read and write
when ne was hustled out into the
world to look after himself. At II he
got work in the village store as a
general utility boy With several let
ters from his neighbors testifying to
his good qualities, he came to New
York and became a peddler. The let
tiers enabled him to get goods on
credit. He went on for a time buying
and selling chiefly in dry goods, until
he had about $100 saved. Then he got
a pack together and went to the Caro-
linas and Georgia.
He came back from the South with
a few hundred dollars and with his
brother opened a general merchandise
store at OneOnta, OtsegO county, New
York Gathering all together, he pur-
chased an outfit and set out with
others for the Land OF Gold. he
went by way Of the Isthmus, and there
with his company he was detained for
three months, as there was no facih-
ties or supplies for proceeding on the
journey.
Makes 5000 on Journey.
But during these enforced months
Of waiting, Huntington was not idle. He
bought supplies and went about
hawking them. He thus emptied the
pockets of his companions and turned
their contents into his own. By the
time the journey was resumed Hunt
ingtOn was the richest man of the
party and when he arrived at Sacra-
mento he had about $4,000 with which
to commence. He started in a general
hardware business on K street, first by
himself, but then he took in an enter
prising young fellow named Hopkins,
who also came from the East. Hunt
ington and Hopkins did all the hard

ware business or that locality. Hunt
fngton was ever on the lookout for
speculation He bought everything IN
the way Of hardware he could get
when the cost was low, and sold when
the price was high. By 1856 the firm
was worth over 100000.
Huntington was not satisfied He
wanted to extend his business, and
from the very first, with farseeing
acuteness, he saw the great pOssibili-
ties Of a railway connecting California
with the East. He talked Of it by
dav and dreamed Of It by night. At
length he persuaded seven Of the most
influential men OF the city to join with
him in the endeavOr to bring the mat
ter to an issue. Early in 1851 he made
a survey across the mountains ana
his report convinced the others thaJ

Organizes Central Pacific.
The Central Pacific railroad com
pany was organized with an original
capital of $S,50O,0O0. Immediately Mr.
Huntington started for Washington
armed with maps, charts, plans, draw
ings and Specifications to prove to
Congress the probability Of such
railroad and to secure from the gov
eminent substantial aid in building it
The results of HuntingtOns labOrS are
summed I'D in the Acts of Congress OF
1862 and 1864 by which the govern
ment agreed to give lands and DondS
to aid in the construction Of the ROAD.
The government did its part, but
there was very much to be done on the
part of the promoters. Huntington
was indefa tigable in promoting the
scheme. He came to New York to
enlist the aid Of capital and in this
field his persistence. courage and
knowledge Of men were put to an ex-
ceptionally severe test There were
others who helped him in his great
effort. These were his partner Hop
kins, and Stanford and Croker. The
four agreed to pay personally for the
labor Of 500 men on the road for one
year and pledged their private fortunes
to meet the obligation.
Construction Gangs in Race.
The construction race with the
Union Pacific which rushed westward,
while the Central Pacific was rushed
eastward, created unbOunded excite
ment and enthusiasm, as the wires
daily flashed the progress OF each
across the continent During this time
the tremendous strain of anxieties Of
Huntington and his colleagues cannot
be realized. FreightS, prices OF
material and wages rose tremendously
and all had to be paid in gold coin at
a time when gold was at high
premium in California Indeed, there
were hundreds Of discouraging prob
lens, but Huntington with his splen-
did physique and stubborn nature
arose above all difficulties and in the
end solved all problems. He built the
Central Pacific from the west to the

The records are carved on stone,

One of the remarkable features Of the
records is the reference to three dis

people, according to the characters
with which they are perpetuated, were
of entirely different blood and ante
