city of Belfast on having awakened at

has been taking all that was good and

the majority is small it is sufficient,

T need pumpkins and a bale of hay. and cucumbers. and some new 1914 model early oranges, and I need them right NOW" said Mrs. R. l.. Cowgirl. of the Los Angeles office of the Phoenix board of trade to an interviewer the other day.
 Il know that MT. Welch of the Phoenix office cannot go out and buy this truck for me. but the farm CTS ought to be willing to contribute it. l ought to get an express parcel of Salt River valley produce every other day. or at least every week.
 Phoenix business men who are supporting this branch little realize the big things it has to combat. Arizona, for all it's wonderful prog ,ress of late, is still regarded as a chap and boot and gun state by the large majority of the visitors from the east. l have to explain to wom- cn that Arizona comes nearer being a closed state than California. have to explain to men that business in Phoenix is conducted by means ol

ty. and for that reason l have to have material from more than Mari copa. The oranges, for instance l 60 not think they will survive am other season. and by fall it will be tUo late to get some more.
 Literature, too, is one of my needs. I seem to be telling you nothing but what I lack. We'll 1 could show you lists going into the tens of thousands, representing the numbers of pamphlets this office has distributed since last year. This pa Der covers all the counties that have boost organizations"
 In reply to questions concerning her lectures, Mrs. Cowgirl said that she had almost abondoned the school &nd civic society talks for those in the lecture hall of the chamber ot
 commerce building. She declared
 that from fifty to a hundred and fifty attended each lecture and that she talked never less than twice q day. Stereopticon slides in her now famous collection, are shown in each talk, the speaker illustrating her ! remarks.

HAS BULL MOOSE" AUTO TO TOUR IN THE WEST
L. C. Erbes Will Pilot Party of Five Runabouts of That Name Through
 Arizona Next June

Did you ever hear of the Bull Moose" runabout?
 Probably not But Phoenix was informed of the existence of that make of an automobile yesterday when word came to the board of trade to the effect that l.. c. Erbes, who makes this car, would lead five of them down into Arizona in June.
 Why Mir. Erbes calls his Michi- gan made automobiles Bull Moose" is not clear. Whether it is because they are just naturally so husky that that name is suitable or whether it is out of an excess of admiration for the admirable qualities of the party which is so called is not known. But it is a fact that there is such an automobile.
 MT. Erbes' main purpose in writ ing at this time is to ask about the condition of Arizona roads. He re- calls a trip made through Arizona last year, and says he will come again in the party of five. The route will be via Albuquerque. So- zorro, Springerville, Globe. Roose- velt dam, Pho mix, Caliente, Yuma, Brawley, Fl Centro and San Diego to Los Angeles and other coast points.

WEIR BEATS CURTIS IN l8.2 TOURNAMENT

Billiard fans had a rare treat in see
 ing one of the closest games ever
 played in Phoenix, when Weir defeated
 Curtis by the score of 125 to 122, at
 the St. Elmo last night. There was
 never a time during the game, when
 one man had much the best of it. It
 was no doubt the best game that will
 be played during the entire tourna-
 ment.
 The night game was almost the same, when Al Milton defeated Curl by the score of 160 to 130, the latter playing for 40. It looked, in the early part of the game like Curl had a walk away, making runs of A. Al took spurt in the sixtieth inning, making three runs of nine and one of eleven, which won him the game. Tonights game will be between Weir playing 125, ana Goodman playing 110

An increased crowd at the skating rink last night saw number of changes that had been made in the building in order to more fully ac- cCmmodate the immense crowds that will attend the great joint evangelical meeting which will open tonight un- der the auspices of all the churches and conducted by those master minds O: evangelism, Brown and Curry.
 The pulpit has been erected in the hack of the rink, speaking of the di- rection from the main entrance on First street. Back of this, large platform, upon which 300 chairs will be placed for the big chorus choir, has been built, and last night 150 en- thusastic singers occupied the struc- ture, where under the direction of pr.

 down deep in the heart of things, there was a single nerve cord that controlled these four drivers. They i;ncN. Hadn't they cusse1 ca-h ot.- er in public prints and fraternized, behind carefully closed doors, with the holder of the leash? Answer is that they had and they did.
 Now there was in this race an other car, a perfection of mechanism and a jewel of efficiency. It was a foreign made car. It was a neat. clean, snappy, racy-looking car that well deserved the name of Moon- beam The MOonbeam entry was a peculiarly built thing = from the viewpoint of a hidebound American motor manufactures. It lacked cer tain little essentials that American And that lack had been shown to be fatal on certain occasions, too, for in a previous race. it had caused this particular car to go out of the con test for repairs.
 The MOonbeam car was most to he feared in that race. Having q good place in the starting line, Witi several junkpiles ahead of it. there was large chance that it would craw out into first place and win. For il was fast. and J. E. Duke. the driver was a cool-headed, nervy pilot.
 The Draper team decided it woul, never to do to permit the Moon beam entry to swallow the honors The four Draper drivers and thel fcur seconds knew almost as mucl about the mechanical oddities of th' MOonbeam as did the maker of tn ear. So they laid a deepsome plot.
 How They Worked It
