TRAINING |S
 RAPID HERE
Warm, Dry Air Enables Ball Players to Timber Up Quickly " Senators Ready for Ininns Tomor- roW-Mesa Sunday

By tomorrow afternoon, the Phoenix Senators will have become pretty well licked into shape and their game against the Indians at the school grounds will probably be more like baseball than the limping about of a lot of cripples. Spring training is rapid in the warm dry air of the Salt River Valley and six or seven Young ball players. who have just been testing the climate for the first time are highly enthusiastic over it.
 A little extra baseball will happen before the local club gets ready to jour ney to Tucson for the opening game which will be on April 27, maybe. The fact Douglas and Las Cruces are not yet in possession of their entire teams, makes it probable that the opening date will be showed forward a week The official schedule is expected from the office Of President Hughes at Fl Paso the last of this week.
 On Sunday, the southsders who suc- cessfully worried the locals last Sun day, will have at 'em once more at Riv- erside park Toner. whose control has improved somewhat, will be used against the Mesa Tempe sluggers.
 The Phoenix line up against the In dians will be:
 Demaggio, if; Hester, 1b: McArdle, ss.; Mutt, If: Pittman, cf.; Bowling. 2b.; Scanlon. 3b.; Lynn. C.; McCreery. D.

Likewise. Douglas. the infant of the league. has not completed it's prep arations for financing the team. Rel Toner. the other heavy hurler, will be getting back into shape. He will probably pitch Sunday against the same Mesa Tempe combination that faced McCreery last Sunday, and a great improvement in his work is eX- pected.

But being a touring motor bike it will have to be tinkered somewhat before Wilson can use it.

Sadler is to be the Phoenix agent for the Cyc- lone.

 | The arrival of Harry Locke, the
 road map man. brings about some
 more discussion about the Los Ange-
 les Phoenix road race Locke tells ian interesting story about the way he has had to stick up for Phoenix
 along the Borderland route, which he
 has just finished mapping. The i'm
 pression prevails that Phoenix double crossed the Borderland in pulling the 1914 race via the northern route, and Locke has been spreading it that Phoenix was even more badly disap- pointed than Yuma over the change The northern route will never again 1 be used for a race between Los An
 geles and Phoenix, according to Locke.
 While on the subject it is proper to discuss the prospects for a San Diego to Phoenix race next fall The bitter disappointment of the southern route opponents last year makes it
 plain they will jump at q chance for the San Diego-Phoenix event next With two thousand dollars in sight for an extra race last year, it is probable San Diego would support race cashfully in 1915. This is a
 thing L. A. has never done. The course has now been cut down to
 400.1 miles and the treacherous Nam
 moth Wash eliminated by the com pletion of the seven mile plank road between Holtville and the river.

Illiteracy Census

The school trustees of Kentucky
will be given an opportunity to play
an important part in the illiteracy
campaign. They are being asked by
the County superintendent, the
State superintendent and the Ken
lucky Illiteracy Commission to take
a census of the pupil children, of
who cannot read and write. Their
names will be reported to the Ken
lucky Illiteracy Commission, at
Frankfort. This is move in the right
direction. No. doubt, the trustees
will count it high privilege to
serve the State in this way. 1t will re-
quire very little extra exertion, and
will help to show Kentucky's real
standing. Also, it will enable the
Kentucky Illiteracy Commission to
know where illiteracy is most preva-
lent, and it may be sending out the
lifeline to many deprived man or
woman. School authorities are lend
ing hearty cooperation, and the pub
lie will await the results with inter-
est. Above all things, this census
should be accurate. There is nothing
to be gained by either concealing or
overestimating the illiteracy of a
county.

IDENTIFY "Kaintuckian." and much in
love with his native state:

I Well, I'll be gol durned-say
/ I'd rather live in that old State
The balance of my days
Than be the Car of Russia,
With his riches and his truck
| Say, wouldn't take his kingdom
For one corner of old "Kaintuck"
I'd rather be hopper
Jes lain in the corn
On an old Kaintucky hillside
Than any King that's born.
I'd rather watch the Bluegrass
Nod its dainty head, and bow
Than see the slickest picture
In old Italy, / swow.
1t seems to me old nature,
When she cut Kaintucky out
Came pretty near a-knowin'
The thing she was bout
So she made another Eden
With the sweetest flowers that grew
And christened in Kaintucky
With jug of mountain dew"
There amt no other corner
Of this hemisphere of ours
Whar old Mother Earth is kivered
With such dainty perfumed flowers,
Whar old teeter-birds and thrushes
Can calculate such notes,
As they can in old Kaintucky
From their little feathered threats.

WILL DETERMINE WHETHER
FLAG INCIDENT WAS INSULT

WASHINGTON, d. G., Jan. 21.-
Experts are searching for precedents
to determine whether the hauling
down of the American flag on the
steamer Greenbrier was an insult. If
England admits the flag was hauled
down, the government will undoubted-
ly demand reparation.
There is some doubt whether Eng
land was within her rights and the
state department insists that a gen.
eral procedure is arbitrary. The
British consul has certified to the car
go. Therefore there was no reason
for stopping the ship and searching
lit.
Judgment will not be passed until
note of explanation is received. II
is felt, however, that the incident Is
serious and a strong demand is i'm
perative.

4 FIREMEN KILLED
ON BOARD CRUISER

WASHINGTON, d. c., Jan. 22.-
Four second class firemen were Kill
led and nine others of the crew were
seriously injured in an explosion
aboard the cruiser San Diego, off the
west coast of Mexico, according to
navy department dispatches, from Ad-
miral Howard. Low water in the
boiler tube is believed to be the
cause.
The cruiser had just completed a
speed trial. 1t made q .45 knots and
it is believed the machinery was Sc
verely strained during the test. The
exact cause of the explosion or the
exact location where it occurred, is not
stated. The cruiser left La Paz for
Acapulco, January 10.
The San Diego is the flagship Of
the Pacific Fleet. Sec. Daniels or
dered a court martial investigation
to fix the responsibility for the ex-
plosion. The cruiser is now safe in
the port of Guaymas and the wound
ed are being attended.
