Tracinq Boqus Notes

DOUGLAS, Feb. 26.-AgentS or Mexican insurgents are actively en- gagged in tracing counterfeit consti- nationalist currency, the appearance of which has tended to cause financial chaos among the revolutionists. Tores Saldana, Sonora inspector for the constitutionalists' treasury de- partment is said to have seized bogus currency to the amount of four thousand pesos in Agua Prieta. He is also credited with having traced ten thousand pesos to Texas bank. The currency was lost when trunk containing 1000 unsigned bills burst open on the way from New York to Douglas It is said the signatures of constitutionalist leaders were forged to the notes. Only small part of the lost consignment re- mains untraced.
 Constitutionalsts are so much troubled over the discovery that many thousands of dollars of rebel currency recently put in circulation has been counterfeited that they have decided to recall the present issue and replace it with new money, ac- cording to Consul Lelevier.
 ConstitutionalistS agents here said reports from the west coast of Mex ico indicted the crew of the Mexican federal gunboat Guerrero. now in Guaymas harbor. will follow the eX- ample of the crew of the Tampico. which was recently captured at Topolobampo without the firing of a shot by the insurgents. It is report ed that only fear of the wrath of General Ojeda. and the menace of the shore batteries has kept the officers of the Guerrero loyal so long, It is asserted that if the Guerrero is sent to fight the Tampico, the crew will gladly join the constitutiOnalists

There is an East End woman who has a D. etty wit. Also, she has sense of humOr-and the two are more seldom found in a combination than you would suspect. That, IS what makes her so companionable to her friends and so imperVious to the venomous darts launched by her enemies.
 The other day she was relating an experience to q group of callers.
 The cook has left, as cooks do without notice" she said. And I had to get the dinner myself. I am proud to say that my husband ate every bit of it."

letcher Sees Villa

CHIHUAHUA, Feb. 26.-A supple mentary conference between General Villa and Marion Letcher, the Ameri- can consul, was held today about the examination of the body of William s. Benton. General Villa agreed that an examination commission could be received here and that it should con sist of two Americans, two British representatives and medical eX aminers.
 T will provide special train for
 the use of the commission. The
 physicians will be allowed to make
 the closest scientific examination and
 diagnosis of the number and nature of Benton's wounds said Villa. T think, however, it would be inn proper for the body to be removed
 from this place, to which I brought it last Friday in order that it might be fittingly inferred in the most honored cemetery in the state of Chihuahua"
 | The essentials of the interview were telegraphed by Consul Letcher to Washington.

Has a First Sacker and Third Stacker Who Will Be ill Commission for the Mesa Phoenix Contes S t Sunday

Dick Fat Yates on the trail of his first sacker, says he has made a find. Needles is the name of that find, and with such a name he should be a prime man for the jop He will have a long tryout With said man on the initial bag, and in the event he proves to be what is thought he will be, that Needles will be on the initial sack when the first ball goes over the pan Sunday.
 Another card from OCOnnel. the red headed, hard listed gent of the dia- mOnd who has announced his intention of coming to Phoenix just to try out for the third sack state that he is on his way. He comes to Phoenix well recommended, and has string Of teams on which he has played on his record which would put Jo Wood in the blind baggage class. O'COnnel Irish as is his name. has played on all the western diamonds. Last year he made the third sack on the Bisbee nine and played later on the Alberquerque team. At other times he has played in Doug las. Cananea, Fl Paso. Dallas and other teams
 Mesa has added to her strength for the Sunday game by the simple remedy of practice They have spent several hours of each day on the sod in their neck of the woods. and have become even better team mates. Their team work was their salvation for the first nine innings of the Sunday game when they held the Phoenicians so near d shutout.
 The game next Sunday will be called at the usual hour on the Grant park. With the record of the last game still fresh in the minds of the winners and losers there is the probability that gocdlY crowd will gather at the park, and with teams as strong or stronger than those which met last Sunday the chances for a good game are assured.

Phoenix high fans and the Coyotes will go to Mesa Saturday in auto mobiles. They will go in one big mass and will take with them enough noise and other material for making din to rattle most anything. They will go set on bringing back to the Phoenix camp one more scalp.
