1t was surely one, grand slam
that h e All Students baseball
team put over OIL Kauai last Sa-
turday, and m o S people have
spent a lot of time since trying to
figure out how it happened. The

Oh, that game with the McBrydes

champions jumped OIL, smashed,
literally murdered and almost bur-
led, as was done in the forenoon :
we'll, it was a shame.

field and the ball being hard to

ed that this handicap fefffi equally equally
hard upon the visitors, and the
natural effect should have been
merely high score for both sides.
1t must be admitted that the
scnool bows put up much the best
team work. Their drives to bases
were immense and effective, while
at base stealing they far outclassed
their opponents. There was really
very little difference in the quality
of batting, but owing to the excel
lent fielding of the visitors, neither
of the Kauai teams made much
ont of their work with the willow.
The crowd was the largest seen
on Kauai in many day, baseball
enthusiasts coming from every
part of the island. The grand
stand was packed to utmost capac-
ity morning and afternoon, the
foul lines were crowded and all Of

THE CORPSE AROSE
AND WALKED AWAY

Sheriff Rice received telephone
message Sunday afternoon to the
effect that Porto Rican man, ap-
parently nearly dead, was living
OH the roadside opposite the prem
ises of Mr., George N. Wilcox.
The sheriff hurried to the scene,
fully expect..,g to discover case of
foul plav. He was gratlfied, j'pon
hurried investiga alton, to find the
man alive and succeed and in arous-
ing him. NJ
What's matter you? asked the
Porto Rican.
Why, 1 don't know replied
the sheriff. What l want to know
is, What's the matter with you?
The Porto Rican said he did not
know what had happened, but he
must have been asleep. A few
minutes later, however, his horse
with the bride and saddle on, was
found at the grass short distance
away and i. was pretty clearly
shown that he was thrown from
his horse and stunned. Liquor also
probably had something to do with
it. The man was lying asleep on
the roadside during h e heavy
shower which fell II the early
afternoon. and was not awakened
by it.

CH|NAMAN ROBBED
BY H|GHWAYMEN
Held Up On Road At Night
And Relieved Of Coin
Suspects

All Sing, Chinese cook employ
ed by A. D. Hills, was held up
Thursday night by three highway
men at point between Halehaka
and the ice works and robbed of
$3.50.
The Chinaman had left the prem
ises of Mr.. Hills and was return
ing to his own home, when sud-
denly confronted by the three men
in the road. They presented re-
volver and at the same time seized
him. The victim of the hold-up
made no resistance, that being
plainly useless; and as soon as the
highwaymen had secured t h e
mohey they disappeared in the
darkness.
The Cinnamon believes the high
wavmen were Filipinos, although
he seems to have no positive know
ledge about it, except that they
were small men and addressed him
i'll pidgen English. Acting upon
this theory, Sheriff Rice detailed a
new Filipino officer on the case.
Suspicion seems to be against one
of two & ngs of Filipinos near Ii
hue, one having four men in it and
the other three. These two gangs
have been under the eye of the po
lice for sometime in connection
rtith other cases of petty osawry.
This is the first case of highway
robbery on Kauai in great while,
on account of which unusual in
terest is taken IN it, although the
amount stolen was small.
Fearing that the highwaymen
might again attack him, the China
man did not tell Mr.. Hills about
the hold-up until Saturday, and
the latter reported the matter to
the Sheriff.

SWEENEY LEAVES THE
PIONEERS HOME
(From Saturdays Daily.)

John J. Sweeney, appointed sup
erintendent of the Pioneers Home
in this city. after the death of p.
V. Coldwell last month, rendered
his resignation last night to the gov
ernor by telegraph. and asked that
he be relieved Immediately.
Mr.. Sweeney informed a Journal
Miner representative that he was
leaving the institution voluntarily
in order that he might enter the
race for the Assembly.
The appointment of a new super
intendent, accordingly. is engross-
ing very much attention again, and
many contend that Judge Wren OF
Constellation is slated for the place
being summoned to the capital a
few weeks ago and promised the
plum by the governor. There are
said to be two other avowed appli-
cants in this city for the Office.
and the announcement of Sweeney's
resignation has started quite lively
skirmisling on the political firing
line.

WAR BRINGS HIM BACK
TO SCENE OF YORE
(From Thursdays Daily.)

While the eyes of the world in
general are focused towards Europe
with an equal display of interest
on all sides, Prescott may claim al
least one person who not only
watches every new move of the
armies with enthusiasm but who
understands every single sentence
of the dispatches and can see Wis
ions of tents and corps in every
little village and hamlet of the pro-
vince of Alsace, which is now the
scene OF activities. That individ-
ual is Antoine Emanuel, a veteran
of the Franco-Prussian war.
Mr.. Emanuel is an hourly visitor
to the Journal Miner bulletin board
and a bureau OF information for
by-standers at the time he is there.
The manner in which Mr.. Emanuel
came to America represents a
strange tale of adventure and for
tune and is decidedly appropriate at
this time in view of the war gods
advent in Europe once more
Mr.. Emanuel was a private with
the French forces in the Prussian
war and Alsace was at that par
ticular time, the scene of conflict.
Together with three comrades Mr.
Emanuel was captured by the Ger
mans and placed in a guard house
in the charge of a German officer.
4 plot formulated during the day
by the prisoners was put into OPP
Grafton at night, the officer on
guard felled and the escape made.
A friendly peasants home was
reached, DISCUSSES procured and the
journey commenced to the coast
The port of Calais was reached by
the fleeing soldiers after a journey
during which many thrilling ex-
periences were encountered.
In the harbor at that time was
an American man-of-war. The YES
sci was short of musicians. Emanuel
learned of this and being young
man with a musical education, ap-
piled for a job. 1t was granted and
that's how he came TO America.
But for his age, the old fight
er declares that he would be board
ing the first vessel for his beloved
Alsace to again take up arms.

COPPER INDUSTRY
Z SUFFERS IN YAVAPAI
(Fron Saturdays Daily)

Rumors to the effect that the cop
per mining and smelling industries
in this county are on the decline
were verified yesterday with the ar
rival OF visitors from Jerome and
Copper Basin. a report was also
received yesterday to the effect that
the entire mining town of Ray
had been closed down as a result
of the general depression caused by
the European war leading to the
lessening of the demand for cop
per.
Over in Jerome, the effect OF or
ders from General Manager Charles
Clark ordering a decrease OF thirty
three percent in the United Verde's
production, is being felt keenly.
Daily forces OF men are being laid
off and the indications are that the
force OF several thousand men will
be reduced in proportion to the
ratio OF decrease in the amount OF
production.
Copper Basin has ceased to be
thriving center OF copper pro-
duction. The night shift has been
laid off entirely. Foreman A. B.
Peach together with the majority
of the men are now in the city. The
day force has been materially de-
creased in numbers.

START PRESCOTT SCHOOLS
ONE WEEK LATER
(From Saturdays Daily.)

Discarding the past annual Gus
tom of re-opening the schools on
Labor Day, the school board OF
trustees has set the date for the
opening of the school term a week
later, September II. This action
was deemed absolutely necessary
in view of the delay encountered in
the erection of the new Manual
Arts building which Is to serve as
an improvised high school until
the new building is completed.
Although the contractors have
been pushing the work ahead on
the Manual Arts building at full
speed, it is now a certainty that
they will be unable to complete the
job by September l. An extra week
will also be required for furnishing
the structure.
The Manual Arts building togeth-
er with some spare room in the
Washington school will be utilized
for high school purposes until the
new $4,000 high school on the
corner of Gurley and Alarcon
streets is completed. Work upon
this structure will be rushed in
order to insure completion by Feb
ruary or in time for the start of
the second semester.

TAKE STEPS TO CON-
SUMMATE LAND DEAL
(From Fridays Daily.)

The initial legal steps were yes
terday taken for the concentrating
of the deal whereby the government
is to procure possession of the
southwest corner of Cortez and
Goodwin streets for the erection of a
handsome Federal building. A pc
tition requesting the sanction of the
Superior Court to the contemplated
transaction was filed by Attorney
F. L. Haworth. representing the
First Church of Christ, Scientists,
of Prescott, present owners OF the
property.
In 1918 when it was considered
possible that the church property
might be looked upon favorably for
the postoffice site, the board of di-
rectors of the church passed reso-
luton giving David Biles, an op-
ton upon the property for $3.50.
Since then the governments choice
has been announced as favorable
to this property and the church di-
rectors are now taking the proper
legal steps. The property sold for
larger figure than that mentioned
in the option.

FOWL LITIGATION IS VIC
OROUSLY PRESSED
(From Saturdays Daily.)


Chickens will be chickens" and
while they will enter into the ar
gument, the courts are bound to
hear from John Barent who has
been prosecuting chicken litigation
for the past several days. Another
sequel to the chicken litigation came
yesterday when Mr.. Barent had
arrested Joe Bowers upon a charge
of making threats to kill him.
Several days ago, Mr.. Barenl
swore out a warrant for the arrest
OF Mrs. Joe Bowers whom he
charged with having stolen chick
en- valued at fifty cents. The at
tention of two lawyers, Justice OF
the Peace McLane and jury as
well as a dozen witnesses was oc-
cupied for a half day in the trial
Three chickens were offered in the
court room as evidence and the
jury in she course of its duties
paid a visit to the premises involved
in the litigation. A verdict &C

Yesterday, Mr.. Barent appeared
before Judge McLane and asked
for a warrant for Bowers arrest.

STEADY SHIPPER IS
LITTLE JESSIE
(FIom Thursdays Daily.)


With payrolls being curtailed
among the copper-silver mines OF
this field, it is quite encouraging
to learn that there remains, how
ever, quite a number of the gold
producers that are still actively en-
ployed in production and no aban-
donment of a set program of oper-
ating is contemplated.
This is the situation at the camp
of the Chaparral Mines Company,
operating the Little Jessie. While
in the city Tuesday, c. H. Black
er, the general manager, stated a
car of good grade gold ore was
shipped that day to the Consolidat-
ed at Humboldt, making the sec
ond shipment during the past month
taken from the old levels of the
Jessie. He was very much pleased
over underground conditions, where
a line of exploration is going ahead
energetically. This old-time gold
producer bids fair to give credit
able account of itself under the new
management, and since the old lev
els have been opened up recently,
ore bodies exposed are said to be
satisfactory. The first car from the
Jessie went to Hayden smelters, of
three grades, and returns were graf
flying.
