CROP GIVES PROMISE OF
 BEING RECORD BREAKER
A Fourteen Acre Tract Lying South
 of Mesa

So much has been said lately about the wonderful cotton crops in the Mesa section that there is some hesitancy in brOaching the subject hut here goes for one more.
 J. w. Horsley who resides in the southern part of town and who is farming fourteen acres one mile south of the Arizona Eastern station, has what comes very near being the prize crop in this section, and that is saving a great deal. and we won't say that it is the prize crop but if nothing happens to it in any way it will yield twenty bales of cotton standard size.
 That may sound big. but the writ CT is vain enough to think that he knows what he is talking about.
 The crop was planted on old alfalfa land, and has not had any special care more than goes with good farm ing, and the further fact that MT Horsely is an old cotton farmer from the south, and combined good soil good work, and experience and his crop is among the best in this section.

MESA SHORT NOTES

Mesa'S popular band gives a con i cert on Main street every Saturday night at o'clock. The audience ne cessarily has to stand or bring their l chairs with them. The suggestion is made that the north plaza be fitted with d band stand and seats for the public.
 The recent revival of interest in Pineair has apparently been put on cold storage. While no doubt noth- ing can be done in time to help out this summer, it is well to remember that another year is fast approach ing. The valley can keep great many thousand dollars at home in 1914 by completing the Pineair road. The Mesa lawyers have given up the plan of forming q bar associa- uon. Bars are no longer popular here, owing to the local option law. w. H. Gilbert is suffering from a small ulcer in his nose that has so inflamed that organ as to make it's owner an object of suspicion Mr. Gilbert says that his nose may be red and painful, but it has not taken hlm so long to acquire it nor has it cost him as much money as other people he could name.
 There is d resident of Mesa who
 
 wind begins to blow harder than usual during the night time This habit was formed during a residence in Kansas and has become an auto matic matter of course.
 The turkey trot, the tango and the bunny hug have been barred from the regular weekly dances held in Mesa, and now some of the boys are talking of a turkey trot club that will fill the long felt want dur ing the coming fall and winter sea son.
 Councilman Fred Maier who is al- so street superintendent has notices posted for numerous street improve ments that have been ordered by the council. It requires all of his spare time to look after public affairs and there is no pay attached. The next time he runs for office it will be for a position that has something more than questionable glory attached to it.
 It has been raining to the north of Mesa, to the east. and to the west, but only a few drops fell in town. But then. why should we worry? Mesa is a dry" town
 A. P. Taylor followed mining for several years in Arizona, but last fal concluded to engage in farming That he is making a success of the new industry is shown by the big melons and the magnificent field of cotton he has to show for his work
 Word just received from w. K Bowen and Ed Jones, who are spending their vaca tion in the noun talns' is to the effect that they had found the trail of the calf eating bear and that the spoor was fresh. They hope to capture the animal be- fore Colonel Roosevelt returns from the north.
 The recent threatening weather has diminished church attendance to q considerable extent but there is only slight difference in the nightly re- ceipts of the picture show houses.

of them attempted to escape, but the driver reached over the side of the wagon and lifted the man gently off his feet, shook him and then gently sat him down in the seat. The man kept his seat until the wagon arrived at the city hall, without making any further attempts to escape.
 Ramirez has often been in the tolls and has served quite a few sentences in the city jail. A short time ago he was arrested by Officer Morrell for being drunk and disOrderly and he told the officer that if he had gun he would not have been taken to the jail. Another time he was arrested and when he was searched he was found to be carrying a vicious looking revolver of .45-caliber
 Ramirez will be given hearing be fore Judge Johnstone some time today, and it is expected his comrades will also be examined.

 MT. Calderwood has a reputation as an orator in Minnesota, where he is the chairman of the prohibition committee for that state. He has been upon the lecture platform for a number of years, and has obtained numerous well earned enconiums for his work. His discussions of the H- quor traffic are clean cut, scholarly, and convincing. He is careful up to date student, knows the latest aspect of the matter, brings new facts continually to bear upon it, and with al is a strong clean American.
 His tour through the valley will be conducted in an automobile. After speaking on Tuesday night at S o'clock, he will remain over night here. In the morning at 10 o'clock he will open at Tempe, will be at Glendale at 1:3O; Peoria at D. m., and at Wickenburg at night, quite a strenuous days work.

 A fence will be built about the en- tire high school grounds, concrete posts will be used, the east and south sides will have a high woven wire fence, the top to have a barbed wire, a part of the west side will have same material. but the part immediately about the west and north fronts will have afine ornamental fence that will be credit to the school district A new concrete walk will be laid from thenorth front to the street walk.
 The board is expecting large things from the athletics, and the past work of the school surely justifies this con- fidence; the ground will be put in good shape, new grand stand will be erected, with cover over same. and the seats are to be comfortable.
 The high school building is to be painted upon the outside, at least the woodwork of same Within the build ing all floors are to be cleaned and oiled. Janitor Fred Patterson is now engaged in this part of the work. All furniture is to be cleaned and var nshed, walls touched up here and there.
 Much new equipment is being added to make the school more efficient than in thepast, not theleast of this new equipment is theWork done in theli- brary. This has been entirely new catalogued, making it of far greater service. and more than one hundred new volumes added. This part of Tempe high school is in good shape for the students work.
 New machinery is being added to the manuel training department. It is felt that under the direction of Professor Jennings this department will give the student good training.
 The science department will have a new baiOpticOn, and also a new micro scope. A new department is to be added, with studies in botany, zoology, and physical geography. The teacher for this new department has not yet been elected. Professor Sullivan is hoping and working for large things in the coming years.

ANOTHER MEMBER OF
 GANG IS ARRESTED
Alberto Ramirez, Thought to Be One of the Gang That Murdered Or
 ficer Harris. Is in the Tolls.

ficer Harris, Is in the Tolls.
 Alberto Ramirez, alleged to be one of the gang that slew Officer Charles Harris during the early hours of July G. was arrested yesterday morning by Officers Morrell, WilkersOn and Me Grath and Deputy Sheriff Perry, at the Star lodging house. Officers Morrcll and Wilkerson had been on the trail of the man nearly all night and they located him at the place where he was arrested about 3:30 in the morning. Just as the officers had located the room that the man was occupying Per ry came along and assisted them in guarding the eXhits from the place.
 When Ramirez was ordered to open the door of the room he refused, but after little barley he consented and was immediately placed under arrest. When the officers were removing him to the patrol wagon he became very abusive and the torrent of vituperation that he poured on the heads of the of ficerS did not cease until he was shown that the best thing for him to do was to keep quiet and go along peacably.
 Deputy Sheriff Perry. assisted by Officer McGrath, took the man to the county jail. where he was questioned regarding his knowledge of the crime. Ramirez refused to answer any ques- tions, declaring that he had been ar rested once in connection with the crime and it had been found that he knew nothing regarding the matter.
 Ramirez is the man whom Night Captain of Police Brisbois found com ing from the scene of the tragedy within a few minutes after the crime
  sion Ramirez walked north on First street until he came to the Star lOdg- ing house and he was seen to enter one of the outside rooms. As soon as possible he was placed under arrest with two other Mexicans and taken to the city jail. The next morning he that he had no knowledge of the crime Since that time, however the county authorities received information which positively connects the man with the other members of the gang.
 The morning after he was turned loose Ramirez left the city and went to work on a ranch where he has re- mained ever since, except for one short visit to his old haunts on July 12, dodg- ing the officers who were on the look out for him.
 A few hours before the arrest of Ramirez the police were called to the Star lodging house to quell an incip- tent riot that was occurring in the "bull pen" inside the rectangle formed by the building. Some of the wit nesses of the fray stated to the police that knives were freely displayed, but when the police searched the men they found that only one of the fighters had a knife in his possession. This haul of the guardians of the public peace netted eleven men. While the police were at the place they searched it thoroughly, but Ramirez was not an occupant of any of the rooms
 An amusing thing happened during the raid. While the officers were put ting the prisoners in the wagon one

WATERWAYS
CONFERENCE

Jacksonville. Fla, Nov. 1S.-With a
large and representative attendance,
the sixth annual convention of the
Atlantic Deep Waterways Association
met in this city today for four days
session. The visitors, who came from
all Eastern sections of the country,
were greeted by a gayly decorated
city, and ON every side were reminded
that the whole state of Florida was
trying to make the meeting a memoir
able one.
The opening session was held this
afternoon in the room of the Jackson
Vile Board of Trade. President j.
Hampton Moore of Philadelphia called
the gathering to order and delivered
the opening address. The delegates
then listened to greetings extended in
behalf of the state of Florida, the city
of Jacksonville and the local CONNER
cial bodies.
The sessions for the next three days
will be devoted to the consideration
of plans for river and harbor improve
ments along the Atlantic seaboard and
the carrying out of the project for q
chain of inland waterways stretching
from Massachusetts to Florida. The
advantage of this inland waterway
system, it is claimed, would be cheaper
freight rates, less loss of life from ma
rine disasters, and benefit to the navy
in case of war.
