LATE JOY RIDERS LAND IN RIVER
Three Mexicans Receive Severe Cuts When Ford Car Goes Over Elm bankment.

Shortly after 3 a. m. this (Satur- Maritime Montana, of Morenci, and carrying two Mexican men as passen- gers, went over the bluff and into the river at a point on the East Side just north of the A. c. hospital. After leaving the highway the car turned a somersault and landed in the river twenty feet below on it's body with all four wheels visible above the water. The occupants of the car were thrown out as the car went over the embankment and received several cuts and bruises about the head and body, but fortunately none were seri- OuS.
 A short time previous the car was discovered by Deputies Martin, Hill and Address on Hills Addition where it was stalled temporarily and the car was searched for contraband liquor but none was foundJ the joy riders stating that they had come down from Morenci only a short time pre- vious. The driveS succeeded in cranking the car and started towards town and had only proceeded a short dis tance when the accident happened.
 The tracks of the auto showed that for fifty yards the car was running along the edge Of the embdnkment before it plunged over tie side and al! of this time was off Of the main Highway a distance of eight or ten feet. This is the second accident in which Montana has figured. In the last enc man lost his life by the overturning of a car which he was driving on the Morenci road.

CH|NAMAN'S CASE
 CREATES INTEREST
Representative of the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce Arrives Here for investigation.

The activity and interest of the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce, in all matters effecting the trade re- lations of San Francisco jobbers and merchants with other countries, was demonstrated in Clifton this week when MT. George Henry Probasco, a member of the San Francisco Cham Der of Commerce, and the personal representative of MT. J. H. Rossiter, Vice-President and General Manager of the Pacific Mail and Steamship Co. arrived here for the purpose of mak- ing personal inquiry among the busi- ness men of Clifton regarding Wong Gong, formerly a Chinese merchant of this city, who left here four years ago for visit to his home in China. Upon his return he was stopped by the Immigration authorities at San Francisco, and has been detained on Angel Island since last November awaiting final disposition of his case.
 MT. Probasco spent two days in Clifton and secured affidavits from prominent citizens that the Chinaman in question was a peaceable and law abiding citizen while he was in Cliff ton and that there was nothing against him here that should operate against his return.
 The interest of the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce is accounted for by the fact that the San Francisco jobbers and merchants enjoy a large trade with China and under the ex- emption clause in our exclusion act certain Chinamen are guaranteed the privilege of visiting their homes with +I,o r>f ,i,,cr fO ic try The duty of a committee ap- pointed by the Chamber of Commerce of San Francisco is to investigate the cases of Chinese merchants detained by the immigration authorities, and where the committee is convinced that the applicant returning is entitled to assistance, no effort is spared in gathering evidence of this fact for presentation to the Department of Justice. This was the purpose of Mir Probasco to Clifton and the evi- dence he secured here was highly satisfactory.
 In this connection it will be remem- bered that a son of the Chinaman now detained in San Francisco, Wong Long Gong, young man about twen- lty-one years of age, left here about three weeks ago for Frisco, to see his father and while there was stab- bed to death by another Chinaman who sneaked up on him with long knife concealed in a paper sack and stabbed him in the back. Wong Gong formerly attended the public schools here and had recently opened a restu- rant on the East Side. His assailant is believed to have been Chinaman who. was in Clifton three or four years ago and was mixed up in a fight over a gambling game

BASEBALL SEASON
 OPENS SUNDAY
The First Game of the Season Will Be Played on the Local Diamond Be- tween Clifton and Morenci. Many New Players Introduced.

The opening game of the baseball season for the Clifton-Morenci district will take place Sunday on the local diamond between the old rivals for honors. The past rivalry between the two teams still lives and the coming season promises some holy contested games to which the fans are looking forward with interest.
 There will be new faces on both teams, Clifton having among her num- Der but five old players: Grimes, Grimes, Riley, Culver and Azarte. Riley will be out in uniform to direct the team but does not expect to play. Morenci will have Porrey, Thompson and Crittenden from last years team, the greater part of their men being new material. It is understood that Mckenzie will be on the mound for Clifton, while Manager Thompson has not decided who will work for Mo- renci. The Hill City boys are anxious to win the opening game and the locals are just as determined that they shall not so the game promises to be fight from beginning to end, and those attending will be assured of their moneys worth. The game will be umpired by Jack Wakefield, which is an assurance that it will be free from argument.
 The uniforms for the boys have not yet arrived and for the first game they will have to put up with what they have at the present time. Two new additions to the Clifton team are expected here next week from Kan sas and will act as the new battery. Arrangements are being made to play the 20th Infantry team here in June and games will also be arranged with Globe, Miami, and Fl Paso some time in the near future.
 Mr. Norman Carmichael has order ed a shower bath and locker room put in at the ball ground, and this addi- tion will be greatly appreciated by the boys as it will give them chance to practice in uniform and save them a great deal of time. The grand stand and fence will also be repaired and extended and the grounds put in shape for business for the coming season.
 The boys anticipate a good attend ance at the opening game on Sunday and they will appreciate all thesupport given them. The admission to the game will be soc, ladies free.

Culturene.
From the Chicago Tribune.


Life Is being made easier for us every
day. The literary page informs US that
any one can now learn. by expanding a
couple Of evenings and a couple Of dollars.
all he need know about the modern
drama. 1t is no longer necessary to waste
good time reading Ibsen and Strindberg
or Sudermann. and we are not compelled
to force ourselves through volumes Of
Shaw. We get the plots and we have q
chance OF read the quotable lines. and two
nights of hard study will provide us with
the knowledge indispensable to any cul-
tured person.
This sort of personally conducted tour
through the land Of culture is extremely
popular in America-just as popular, in
fact, as the personally conducted tours in
Europe before the war; Guide book in
hand we dash from celebrated art object
to celebrated literary object, and IL our
memories are good we can talk about
them afterward.
The desirable thing in this country is to
know amout things rather than to know
them. It Is easier to take some one else 3
word about their merit than to find out
for ourselves
Literary and artistic guide books are
we'll enough II they are used right. From
them you can judge what you will prob
ably like from what will be fruitless.
They tell you the means Of enjoyment.
But our culture seeking has led US to for
the means. The literary guide book is
with us an end in itself. It can make a
hishbrow in sixty days. It is the glory
Of the culturene..
