W|LLAHA BECOMING 4
 LARGE SHEEP CENTER

The town of Willaha on the Grand Canyon railroad, is rapidly becoming sheep center and nearly 30.000 head of sheep are being sheared there this year by an expert band of some fifteen blade weilders under the gene ral supervision of Harry c. Hibben.
 The town, which is owned and been built up by Harry Hibben includes corralls, shearing pens, scales and a general equipment that goes with sheep towns of that character, and is the general headquarters for the Hib- ben bands of sheep.
 The town grew several thousand per cent the first of the month when the shearers and sheep herders con- gregated there in tents to handle the work. Willaha is also one of the points of interest for the tourists. Conductor Van Roy of the day train very considerably holds the train a few moments and invites all passen- gers out to witness the operation of taking the winter clothes off the

The Man He Left Behind

An English storekeeper went to the war and left his clerk behind to look after things. When he was wounded and taken to the hospital, what Was his surprise to find his clerk in the cot next to him.
 "Well, l thought left you to take care of the store," said the storekeep- CT.
 !. "You did" answered the clerk. "But you didn't tell me I had to look after your women folks as well as the store. I stood it as long as I could and then I said to myself: Look here, if you've got to fight, you might as well go and fight someone that you can hit"

FLAGSTAFF HAS THE
 REAL SUMMER CLIMATE

Northern Arizona should be the summer playground of the people of Phoenix and the warmer sections of the state. The old habit of going to California will no doubt be followed by many, but those who do go to the mountains of our own state will have the better time. Hundreds from Flag staff, Prescott, Williams, Winslow and other northern towns winter in this valley because they find a de- lightful climate and home people here. They have the summer climate equal to the best in the world and those who have summered among the pines in former years have returned in the fall, we'll satisfied. Arizona affords enough climate for all her people.-Phoenix Messenger.

RESOLUTION

hCooLO lAoN
 We, the undersigned owners of transient herds of sheep, being noti- fled that the State Tax Commission intends to enforce the making of affi- davits by such sheepmen in the state, and after due consideration and in vestigation of the whole subject, dur ing which it was ascertained that a large number of affidavits have not been made through one cause or an- other, and being informed by the Tax Commission that upon the making of affidavits by the sheepmen the Som mission vii enforce the distribution of the taxes to the counties entitled thereto by the several county treas urers charged with the responsibility of making the distribution, do each and all of us express our willingness and intention of making the affdavits as required by law and our entire ap- proval of the action of the Tax Com mission in its efforts to solve this problem.
 During the conference held in Jan uary with the County Assessors it was brought to the attention of the Tax Commission that Maricopa, Pinal and Yavapai counties were not re- ceiving their just proportion of tran sient herd taxes.
 The law provides that owners of transient herds shall, when paying their taxes, make affidavit showing the number of head of livestock and the period such livestock have ranged during the calendar year in the differ ent counties. The County Treasurer is then required to immediately trans init copy of the affidavit and the taxes belonging to other counties to the State Treasurer, who, in turn, prop erly apportions the money so collect ed to the counties entitled thereto.
 The Tax Commission has under taken to see that these laws are strict ly enforced and an equitable distribu- ton made of the taxes collected, and with this in view issued call for the above mentioned meeting.

PRINCETON ELEVEN
NEXT SEASON TO
BE RATHER LIGHT

i New York, April 24-Already
Princeton is looking forward to the
1917 football season. but it is not with
unmixed confidence, for the team will
he lighter than usual and lacking in
experience. Only We varsity men
will be available and only. one-Cap-
tain Wilson-has played more than
one year. Rushs coaching system
will receive it's first real test next fall,
and Princeton men have great conf
dence in him.
The military situation will compli-
cate matters. and it is likely that Mr..
Rush will not have all the football
men to work with. More than $50
have left Princeton to enter the ma
tional service, and a large part of
them are football men,. An equal
mum Der of men are taking the inten-
sive military training to fit them
selves for officers commissions, and
about 80 per cent. Of the rest are
drilling in the Princeton battalion.
If the war should last until the fall
the less important matter Of the foot
ball team would suffer. Certain it is
however, that there will be a Prince
ton football team next fall, for Coach
Rush firmly believes in it as a train
ing for military work.

Pitcher Aldsworth of
New Haven Club to
Quit AS Arm Fails Him

New Haven, April 24-President
James T. Collins of the New Haven
baseball club yesterday received a
letter from Dick Aldsworth, former
star pitcher Of the local club, stating
that he has decided to Quit baseball
for all time. Aldsworth's pitching
arm is still in bad shape, rendering
1t absolutely useless for baseball The
loss of Aldsworth robs baseball of
one of the most promising young
players that ever performed here.
AldsWorth Is now enrolled in the
army service .at Fort Sam Houston,
located at San Antonio, Tex He in
formed Collins that he expected to
compete in the examinations to be
held there shortly for the rank of
second lieutenant. Aldsworth asked
collins for recommendation which
the latter gladly furnished.
Aldsworth came to New Haven at
the beginning of the 1916 season. He
was the property Of the Philadelphia
Americans and worked for Collins un-
der the optional agreement plan. He
turned In five straight victories when
his arm began to bother him. Ac-
cordtng to Manager Murphy he threw
too many curve balls All efforts to
break him Of the habit, failed, how
ever, and today he is one Of the many
promising twirlers who have CURVE
balled" themselves to their own
death.

LES DARCY JOINS
ARMY and WILL
CONTINUE TO BOX

New York, April 24-With view
Of silencing criticism directed at him
for failing to remain in Australia and
accept military service Les Darcy, ac-
cording to a despatch from Memphis,
Tenn, enlisted there yesterday in the
United States Army Aviation Reserve
corps and will be stationed there for
the present. Darcy emerged from
the physical examination with per-
feet record. His weight was 100
pounds, which is the middleweight
limit of Australia.
There is small doubt that while
waiting for orders Darcy will engage
in several bouts. He recently pro-
posed to the recruiting officers at
Memphis that if he was permitted to
box few bouts he would then enlist
The recruiting officers assured him if
he enlised he would get all the fight
ing he could desire. He took them at
their word.
When Darcy's enlistment was
brought to the attention Of Gov
Whitman at Albany yesterday he said:
II am very graAfed to learn that
Darcy has enlisted and I sincerely
hope that others of the profession will
follow his example, as am quite sure
that their service can be of greatest
value to their country in her time of
need"

THORPE WILL BE
RECALLED IN FALL
sEROMI HEREDS

New York, April 24-Jim Thorpe,
the Indian outfielder Of the Giants,
and a few years ago the greatest all
around athlete in the world, was yes
,terday sent to Christy Mathewson's
Cincinnati Reds. It is understood,
however, that the. Giants retain the
privilege Of recalling Thorpe in the
Fall, and because of this the deal is
regarded as q loan rather than sale.
The acquisition of another out
fielder became an immediate necessity
to the Reds when Eddie Roush, their
star gardener, was injured in Sunday s
game. Mathewson called upon his
former manager, McGraw, for assist
yance, and McGraw responded by Of
fering him Thorpe.
InS all probability Thorpe will be
used as regular by Mathewson. The
experience which he will get is ex-
pected to accelerate Jim's develop
lment as big Lacquer. The deal, with
Its unusual aspect-that of being a
sale, but practically a loan at the
same time-is without precedent in
the National League, and it Is under
stood that the club owners Of the
league lent their approval to the
transaction.

GRIFFIN OF TENNIS
FAME ENLISTS IN
PLATTSBURG CAMP

New York. April 24-Clarence
James Griffin, joint holder of the ma
tional tennis doubles title with Will
liam M. Johnston, yesterday acquir-
ed the distinction of being the first
man accepted for the Plattsburg
Training Camp, which will open May
s.
Griffin defeated several thousand
applicants in having his application
accepted. He was among the first to
turn his blank in and then rushed to
the medical headquarters for an ex-
animation. He then fastened to the
enlistment station.
He will remain at Plattsburg for
three months, and upon his discharge
will probably take part in several ten
mis- tournaments in the metropolitan
district. He will, however, withdraw
from competition upon the receipt of
his commission from the Secretary of
War.
Il Dean Mathey and William J.
Clothier, prominent tennis players,
spent several months at Plattsburg
last year, and it was said yesterday
that they have already qualified as
officers Other net stars have indi-
Gated their intention of joining the

Fine and Suspension
For Eddie Fitzpatrick
'sso6 thy Boston Braves


New York, April 24-John K.
fener, President Of the National Lea
que, exerted his authority yesterday to
discourage rowdy tactics on the base
ball field and to prevent repetition
OF the unseemly action at the Polo
Grounds on Saturday, when Fitzpat-
rick OF the Braves threw aside all
restraint
He suspended the offending player
for five days and tackled on a fine Of
$50. The punishment was not too Sc
we're. Fitzpatrick delayed the game
three or four minutes on Saturday by
pantomime after being ordered off the
field by Quigley, one Of the umpires
because OF his offensive coaching at
third base after the argument which
grew out of the decision on foul hit
by Red Smith.

(By Wagner.)

Bill Martin, a shortstop who has Deeh
on the roster of the Giants and
Braves, signed the book at the Hotel
Atlas last night and thereby
officially made himself a member
Of the Bridgeport club for the coming
campaign Martin came from his
home in Washington, D. G. He was
with Syracuse in the New York state
league last season. Martin is only
a young chap. He attracted the at
tention Of big league scouts while
playing on the Georgetown University
team but could never quite make good
in the majors.
Two other new arrivals were Pitch
er Dug Smith and Catcher Sam Bell,
called Mike by the players for short.
Smith pastimed in the New York
State league last season. He will be
remembered by local fans as the
youngster who broke into the game
as a twirler for New Britain a few
seasons ago. Smith is a southpaw.
Bell is a young catcher sent by New
ark of the International league.
The players went through the mo-
tions for the first time at NeWf1eld
park yesterday and Manager Krichell
was we'll pleased with the work OF the
squad King Lear was on first, Jake
Warner on second, Gies at shortstop
and Priste on third. Outfelders
linn and Hodge practiced but Brack-
EFT, who was tired from a long train
ride from Minnesota, didn't do much.
The club is complete except for pitch
ers. Manager Krichell has received
word from Roger Bresnahan, the To-
ledo manager, that a twirler will be
sent here.
Hartford has secured Pitcher Ken
nedy and First Baseman Quinn from
the Providence, International league
club
Connie Mack has picked up several
new pitchers for the Athletics this
season and he expects they will hold
