KANSAS LIVE STOCK
 COMMISSIONER GETS
 THE REPLY COURTEOUS

"A soft answer turneth away Wrath,' but whether the retort courteous coupled with firm determination to stand pat" will serve to alleviate the irritation of a certain official of the state of Kansas is yet to be deter mined For the Hon. J. H Mercer, live stock commissioner of the Sun flower state. angered at the repeated refusals Of the Arizona board to raise the quarantine against shipments from that commonwealth. sat down and poured out his thoughts in words of scathing sarcasm.
 In instituting a rule that no stock from Arizona would be allowed to un- load for food and water in Kansas. he : informed the Arizona officials Kansas was but adopting retaliatory measures. The rule was made not from the fear that the foot and mouth disease might be brought into the state of KansaA from the uninfected state of Arizona, but because the attempts of Kansas officials to have stock from there ad- mitteG had been repeatedly turned down.
 The foot and mouth disease, he pointed out. had occurred only or two or iETee laTInS m ttIldln part bl Kansas. and these localities were un- der strict quarantine. But he had been unable to convince the Arizona board of the necessity of immediately raising the quarantine If they, in their wis Gom, knew more about the conditions in Kansas than he did, or the federal ] authorities did, by all means the law should be enforced. But hereafter lei

JAG ON B|TTERS IS
 BAD MEDICINE FOR THE DISTRIBUTORS
Local Druggist and Colored Man Placed Under Arrest in Annual Raid on Illicit Selling of Alec hol. Woman Fesses up and
 Aids Officers

Hostetter's Bittnrs, the old reliable
 Uhis is not patent medicine ad), came back into it's own yesterday, and gained the favoring glance of few men and women who had found the Water Wagon a rather uncomfortable vehicle on which to traverse the tor tuous paths of Iifes weary way.
 After the smoke caused by the pat ent medicine had cleared away, Will jam Hines. and H. H. Hunter propri- etor of a local drug store had been placed under arrest for violating the prohibition amendment.
 To be brief, the sheriffs office
 started one of the annual round-ups in which they drag in all the inebriates to be found running loose on the city
 streets. The first unwary one caught
 in the net was William Hines, col ored man. In company with William
 were a number of women more or less
 under the effects of some alcoholic
 beverage. What the connection was
 couid not be ascertained, at the time,
 so the whole gang was rounded up, and brought to the county jail A
 harge of illegally selling alcoholic li- luor was placed against the colored gentleman, and q number of the women We're held as witnesses.
 A close questioning as to the source 'f the wherewithal with. which they had made life so gay for a short space of time was instituted. one of he women finally admitted that the whole outfit were gloriously drunk on he well known Hostetter's Bitters md that they had purchased the sup ply from the drug store of Hunter An officer was sent along with the woman to Hunters drug store and a l bottle was purchased in his presence | The arrest was immediately made | Hunter gave bond and was released. | It was stated last night at the sher- l frs office that they are reliably i'm | ormed that the Bitters are 25 per cent | ilcohol Many tales of the beautiful l ag that may be obtained from th' | medicine have been told in the past | but this IS the first time it has come | the notice of the sheriff that it haf l oeen used here for that purpose.

CERMANY'S AND OUR LANDSCAPE

The Germany at peace that I saw during May and June, 1914. was in the first place, a constant pleasure to the eye, constant repose to the body and mind. Look where you might beauty was in some form to be seen, given it's chance by the intelligence of man-not defaced, but made the most of; and whether in towns or in the country, a harmonious spectacle was the rule. I thought of our landscape filtered with rubbish and careless fences and stumps of trees, hdeOus with glaring advertisements; of the rusty junk lying about our farms and towns and wayside stations; and of the disfigured Palisades along the Hudson river America was ugly and shabby made so by Americans; Germany was swept and garnished-made so by Ger Mister in Saturday Evening Post.

 CARS MUST BE REGISTERED-
 Most owners of foreign cars stop ping in Phoenix are perhaps not aware that the traffic regulations require them to register the number of their cars with the police for official guide ance in case of accidents Owners are told on their arrival that they will not have to take out licenses in Arizona until after they have been here six months and they naturally suppose that there is no other requirement. As a result, though there are many for eign ears here all the time very few of them have been registered at police headquarters.

hunt. 1t was freely predicted that
they would win if they could get
home a game or so in the lead, or
even game from the top.
Play of the last ten days indicates
the Red SOx will return~tO their lot
with wider margin than they start
ed west with. And they they have
a long series among the folks back
home. Splitting them under those
conditions will be too stUpendous a
task for the White SOx and Tigers.
In their progress through the west
the Red SOX have played three games
with White SOx, four with Browns
and two with Tigers so far. Seven of
these nine battles resulted in viCto-
Ties, the White SOx giving them their
only defeats. In the same period the
White SOx have played ten games,
winning seven, not quite as high a
speed as attained by the BOstonese.
There is a striking Illustration of
the mountainous bunker the South
SideTs must hurdle to grab the flag.
They have played 700 per cent ball,
above their average for the season by
nearly 100 points, and have failed to
gain. Even should they maintain
such a pace, which is improbable, the
Red SOx would have to fall down
wOefuIly, and there is no intimation
of such a catastrophe.
The recent strain ON South Side
pitchers has been heavy and the
beavers are beginning to show the
effects of too much work. In the last
five days, counting a pair of double
headers and four extra-inning games,
the Hose have played 76 innings OF
baseball. Every available pitcher has
seen duty, and Faber, Russell, Benz
and Scott have been in nearly every
day. Cicotte tried to come back yes
terday, but the injury to his hand
kept him out of practice too long. He
was ineffective.

ever.
There were several rough spots in
the SOx work that helped Washing
ton. Eddie Collins tried to make a
smart play, fell down, and looked
foolish. And the baserunning was off
color at one important stage, when
victory was close.
Joe Tinker's ball team doesn't look
as strong now as it did in the fore
part of the season. The infeld has
crumbIed somewhat. Fred Beck has
slowed considerably, and there has
not been the improvement in Smith
that was expected. HaUser is a fair
substitute for him, but the former
Cardinal has been out Of the game
too long, and has had too much trOu-
BILE, to star at the outset of his come
back.
RoIIie Zeider is playing real base
ball and is the corner stone of the
infeld. His pivotal position at Sec
ond base is responsible, and he man
ages to steady the other fellows. Wes-
terzil can hammer the ball and field
fairly well, but is a tTife slow.
To win the links must have excel
lent pitching, for the batting is only
average. Three or four fellows on
the team are resonant cIoUters, but.
they have a burden to tote. And the
pitching hasn't been of the purest
water, taken clear through. McCOn-
nell and Brown are good, but Prem
dergast, Brennan, Black and even
Hendrix are uncertain.
Yesterday was a fair sample. In
the first battle Ad Brennan was hit

every run they made. In the second

good battles and the win was not diff
ficuIt for the Whales.

Mastodon Remains.

While searching for gravel with which to surface the new Oatman-To- peck road, Lew Stirzel found the jaw bone of a mastodon, with all the teeth intact. The two sections of what ap- peared to have been the lower jaw of the animal will weigh about 110 pounds, and is 20 inches long by nine inches in depth. The molar or back teeth are nine inches in length by four inches wide. The jaw shows three rows of teeth, although two of the rows are much smaller than the inner row. The bones were found imbedded in a silty mass, below heavy deposit of gravel and sand, and from it's appearance it must have been caught in morass and died there, as the ground shows that at one time it was swamp and later was covered by an immense deposit of gravel and sand, which later was eroded out by the securing of the river. The locality is some distrnce back from the Colorado river and close to the con- crete and sand hills, but on the valley level.
 S. s. Jones has the find and has re- ported it to the university of the State and expects that a party will be sent out to further excavate in the hopes of finding the balance of the remains. Only few of these great prehistoric animal remains have been found in the United States, this one possibly being relic of the pliocene age.
 MT. Stirzel also reports the finding of many petrifcations, especially woods of various kinds. In one of the canyons he found the petrified hoof of an ami nal, the shape being that of horse, but not so large as that of the ordinary animal.

Rooster Dies From Hydrophobia.

G. D. M. Gaddis comes to the front with chicken story that has real human interest in it. About two weeks ago, at Mays Well, where his home ranch is situated, MT. Gaddis was awakened during the night by a con- motion in his Chicken house. Slipping on pair of house slippers he went into the chicken yard and caught sight of a pole cat that was trying to get at the chickens. After chasing the cat around the place some time he was finally suc- cessful in killing it, but not before it had bitten one of his prize roosters in the comb.
 The rooster lived eight days and then died, apparently in terrible agony. The poor fowl suffered just the same as human being and all efforts to save it were without avail. This is the first instance that we have ever known of a chicken having been bitten by hy- drophobia skunk and dying from rabies, although chickens have many times been killed outright by these pests.
