 SC1Ie--c -cubs Win Again

Cincinnati, July 24.-Y esterday's Eball game between the Giants and the relapsing Reds: was a contest part of the time and a farce part of the time. At the end of the sec ond inning the Giants had a big lead, and though the Reds pulled it down a bit they couldn't make serious in- roads into the lead and the Giants won as they pleased. The score was B to 4, and in, the last two innings so many substitutions were made in both squads that makeshift teams were in the field. The Reds were making changes in the forlorn hope of starting something and the Giants were making changes to give regulars a chance to rest and see the remainder of the game from the welcome shade. It was broiling hot day The score:

BY the score of IA to 6 the Santa
Fe Apprentices defeated the General
Office football team in the last game
of the season Sunday afternoon. This
was the closing game of the season
and both teams fought hard for vic
tory. but the absence of several of
their best players proved disastrous
to the G. o. team.
The shopmen were first to score in
the second quarter. when Peterson
crossed the goal on a line plunge. The
G. O.'s scored their only touchdown
at the end OF the third quarter. when
one of the office linemen recovered a
punt and carried the ball over for a
touchdown. Goal was kicked. The
Apprentices made their last touch
down in the final quarter. after a
series of line pIunges, Gibbons taking
the ball over.
The Office team made nearly
their gains by the forward pass, the
Geiser-Gregary route being the most
successful. The Apprentices made
their best gains through the line. the
work of Gibbons and Peterson being
the most brilliant

BREWERY STOPS ALL MANUFACTURE LAYS
 OFF FORGE OF MEN
Northern Arizona Institution Has Supply Enough to Last Cut a Year-ls Not Considering Ma nufaCture of TWo-Per Cent

PRESCOTT, Nov. 1.-The Arizona Brewing Company has practically closed down, but the report that it has "shut up shop" is untrue. So far as the manufacture of beer is con cerned, however, no more activity will be seen at it's plant. unless it is finally determined to produce two per cent" something which has not been even seriously considered by the owners and management since election
 The company management stated yesterday that they had enough beer on hand to more than supply their trade up to January 1st, when the amendment says they must close. Very naturally they ceased manufac- ture immediately after it was known that the new law had been carried and not wishing to take chances fur ther than the day when it was to become effective. All employees at the brewery, consequently, have been laid off except the office force and one or two other men, including the watchman The management has nc definite plans as to the disposition oi their valuable property as yet, but it is probable, according to state ments yesterday, that very soon they will have arranged definitely as tC the future.
