New Way of FindInq Water.

an Arizona observer has found out
how to sen by the mesquite whether
water is near the surface or not. When
the mesquite grows up into tree form
the ground water lies within fifty feet
of the surface, but If it remains a
shrub prospects for finding water are
not SO good, We are always learning
that every natural phenomenon has
meaning for us, if we can only read
the meaning Farm and Fireside.

WHITE BEAT RTTCHIE.
Lightweight Champion Meets Decisive
Defeat by Chicago Boy.

Defeat by Chicago Boy.
Milwaukee, Wis. May 27.-Charley
White of Chicago decisively defeated
Willie Richie Of California in a ten
round boxing bout in Milwaukee
Tuesday night. White outfought the
westerner in almost all Of the rounds.
The bout was fiercely fought and
bleeding profusely from the face and
nose. His eyes were nearly closed at
the end and he was a sorry looking
champion long before the bout was
closed. White bled also but was far
the fresher at the end.
White took the lead in the first
round and had the Californian hang
ing on and groggy most Of the round
The ChicagOan slowed up, however.
and Ritchie came back and took the
lead in the second and third rounds.
The rest Of the battle was all Whites
except the seventh and tenth periods.
which were even.
The battle was one Of the hardest
ever fought here. Richie realized
he was against a hard one early in
the fight and did most of the boring
in but was always met with hard left
jabs to the jaw.
White fought q clean battle. His
and his left cuts to the face and
rights to tee body were too much for
the champion.
Richie used a left swing repeatedly
but frequently missed and then was
forced to clinch. Twice Referee Har-
~ Stout was forced to tear the de-
feated mans hands from the ropes
while in clinches.
The crowd cheered the Chicagoan
at all times. and when he left the
ring the victor was carried to his
dressing room by his admirers.
