In the past there have been
meetings of this kind arranged

JAIL BREAK AT TOMBTONE
Seven Prisoners Decamp and
are Well Armed.

Early yesterday morning
Sheriff Earhart received a mes
sage from Sheriff Welch of Co.
chise county informing him that
Sunday night at $3.50 seven
prisoners confined in a stock
ade adjoining the county jail at
Tombstone had escaped. Some
of the men were county prison
ers while others were being
held as federal prisoners.
After leaving the stockade
the men went to the county
armory and secured goodly sup
ply of arms and ammunition.
The sheriff's officers here had
very few particulars of the es-
cape or the character of the
men but Sheriff Earhart noti-
fled all his deputies throughout
the county to be on the alert
and he himself went in the di-
rection of Patagonia, having
been informed that the escapes
would probably head for Noga-
les.
Later a message was receiv-
ed from Sheriff Welch that the
prisoners had crossed into Mex
leo at San Pedro about 2:30 yes
terday morning. The telegram
added that nothing had been
heard of the car or the driver"
From this it is inferred that
the men commandeered the car,
a Ford truck, and compelled
the driver to take them to the
line and possibly further on into
Mexico. There is now little
prospect that any of the escap-
ed men will be captured.

her skirts which had become
disarranged by the wind dashed
upon the track, with the result
stated.
County Attorney Hardy and
Justice Wilkey were notified, a
coroner's jury summoned and
an iquest held. A number of
witnesses were examined and
a verdict to the effect that the
deceased came to her death by
being run over by a Southern
Pacific switch engine and that
death resulted from accident.
Some witnesses stated that
the little girl first clutched the
running board and that had she
held on a few seconds longer
her life would have been saved.
So quickly did the engine stop
that but one drive wheel ran
over the body-the switch en-

PASSING OF E. A. BURTON
Pioneer Resident Dies Suddenly
of Heart Failure.

Yesterday morning at 9:57
o'clock E. A. Burton died sud
denly in his office adjoining his
residence on International Ave
tnue. His unexpected taking off
was a great shock to his many
friends in the city. Early in
the morning he remarked to
members of the family that he
was not feeling well and DIR.
Purdy was called. The doctor
found him suffering from rath-
er a slight attack of indigestion
and prescribed the usual rene
dy. At the time he remarked
to DR.. Purdy, 81 expect l am
just like Tom Bayze before he
died and think l am going the
same way" The doctor left,
saying he would return in case
Mr.. Burton did not readily i'm
prove. Mr.. Burton and his
brother-in-law James Gray, who
is visiting at the Burton home,
went into the office in an an
joining building and were sit
ting talking when Mr.. Burton
suddenly groaned and dropped
his head to the desk. Mr.. Gray
jumped to the stricken mans
side at the same time calling to
members of the family to sum-
or. II Tlrdy. But the grim
reapeI I'D claimed his harvest
and Ed Burton was no more.
Mr.. Burton was born in Og-
densburg, New York, fifty-nino
years ago and when about IS
years of age went to California
There he entered the employ of
the Southern Pacific and about
1880 went to Guaymas. Work
was just starting on the Sono-
ra Railroad, now the S. P. de
Mexico and he went with the
bridge and building department
He remained in that employ
ment until the completion of
the road, when he settled in
Nogales and engaged in car
penter work as contractor and
also work by the day when he
had no contracts. Always he
was busy and it was a common
remark that ED Burton is al
ways at work"
By his industry alone Mr..
Burton became quite well off,
being the owner of the elegant
Hotel Burton building on Grand
avenue, and much valuable
property on international ave-
nue.. About 1881 he was mar
ried in Guaymas to Carmen
Pereida and they had one son,
John, who for several years has
been his partner in all contract
work. Then, too, he leaves, be-
sides hosts of friends, to mourn
his sudden demise.
For a number of years Mr..
Burton had been a member OF
the fraternal organization,
::Alianza Hispania American"
and that society will have
charge of the funeral which will
probably take place this after
noon at 6 o'clock from the
Catholic church. Word has
been sent to an only brother re-
siding at Ogdensburg, New
York, and should he reply stat
ing a desire to attend a post
ponement of the obsequies will
result.

TWILIGHT BASEBALL Is

by any such experiment, and the
Braves management now knows 1t.

Not q Fair Case.
While claims have been made that
the Walton Cruise case may provide
grounds for an official declaration a.
to the status Of professional base
ball under the "work-or-ight" ruling
Of Provost Marshal General Crowder,
the facts do not warrant such a state
ment.
So far as known Cruise is merely
one Of thousands being reciassIhed.
This reciassiheation has been in
progress for several months. He has
been advanced from Class 4 to Class
l. but not under the 'work-or-hght"
ruling. He is in the same situation
that faced Joe Jackson. of the White
Sox- Long before the "work-or-hght'
order was made Jackson's draft board
reclassifed him, putting him in Glass
l. He was offered exemption from
military duty by entering a shIpyard,
and he accepted IL. But this offer
was not made by the Government II
was a private offer in Jaeksonss case.
No case has yet come to notice Of
q ball player being ordered to leave
baseball for some more essential work
under threat OF losing his exemption
on that account
Twilight Baseball FaIIn.
Twilight baseball has been tried in
the major leagues and has failed mis-
ersbly. The Braves, who are receiv-
ing almost no support in Boston,
staged a regular game with Brooklyn
yesterday, starting at 6 o'clock.
About 1000 fans were there at the
beginning and less than 500 when the
game ended.
Semi-twilight baseball proved a
failure in Washington. Starting
games at 4:3o proved punk stuff for
the rooters, who were compelled to
change their dinner hours. Now the
games start at o'clock and thew
might better begin at $50. so far as
the attendance is concerned.
In the West where the attendance
has been good. the usual 5 or 3:15
o'clock starts has been In vogue all
year. New York began with late
starts and had to change for :ho bet-
ter. Philadelphia found late starts
unpopular and went back to the old
style.
If a ball club can't draw by its
work on the field. it cAn't draw BY
flirting with the sunlight VS.. the
clock. II the fans want TO zee base
ball. they'll go to the park. even II
they miss working hours But they
just hate to miss those meals.
