line.
In the second half Miss Burns con-

BOTH FLEMING AND WILSON
LEAD THEIR MENAT LOTOS

The boxing bouts last night pre-
|sented by the Lotos A G. at Palace
Hall resulted in no knockouts, all
four going the full time with the ex-
ception OF one tour which came to an
end In the third when one OF the
+scrappers called off hostilities-
The Frankie Fleming Sailor Delf
bout proved to be the best bout of
the night although the first prelimi-
nary between two lads from Chrome
than was apparent in any of the
other events. The Frankie Wilson,
Willie Kohler bout went the full
eight rounds but lacked interest
owing to Kohler's failure to show any
aggressiveness,' thus making 1t zee
sary for Wilson to do all Of the fore
ing.
In the first bout Of the night Young
Colby, of Chrome, met Kid Leo, OF
Staten Island. The Staten Island boy
was outweighed five pounds but
showed 50 much gameness through
out that in the last round he was
giving as much as he was receiving.
Colby shaded him. however. These
two boys should be able to put up a
pretty exhibition in six rounds, for
which they are scheduled at the Lotos
Club In six weeks.
In the second preliminary Tommy
Black. Of Staten Island, and Danny
Lynch, of Chrome, clashed. Blacks
grasshopper style of fighting put a
comedy touch to the scrap while
Lynch failed to put any stuff be/ld
the few punches he tried to land on
Black. The bout stopped in the third
when Lynch. after getting the worst
of the bargain. complained to referee
Gill; D~-n-.0 - a nod knnn
The first of the eight round bouts
brought together frankie Fleming, OF
Staten Island, and Sailor Delh, of
Brooklyn. Delft had five pounds on
FTemming but failed to use this
weight to advantage as the Staten Is
land boy outpointed him throughout.
In the fourth round Fleming opened
up a cut over Delf's right eye which
bothered him considerable during this
round. The Brooklyn COB put up a
good hard clean fight and some
hard punches from Fleming without
wincing. Fleming's -jabs seemed to
have the sailor worried but now and
then Delf would get ina punch which
would cause Fleming to ease up a Dit
in his onrushes until he a regain
ed his composure.
The last bout brought together
frankie Wilson of Morgan, and Will
lie Kohler, of Newark. Kohler. VINO
fought Kid Potty here about two
months ago, tried the same tactics last
night as marked his bout at that
time.
He refused to lead and let Wilson
do all of the aggressive work. This
was the sans stunt pulled off by him
against Potty, the local boy beng the
one who did allNthe forcing. Kohler
fought back each time but his failure
to start anything soon got on n Ians
nerves. AT times he looked more like
a model for a piece of statuary than
a boxer who is supposed to show
plenty of speed. In the very nrst
round Wilson was hit low n TINS a.
unfinished his speed considerably. Dur
ing the remainder of the bout several
Of Kohler's blows came very close 10
the "dead-line." Wilson deserved
this bout on aggressiyeness IL noun
ing else but he managed to plant some
telling blows at times when there was
an opening.

 Safety First"
 Safety first here is advanced a notch. And convenience is advanced two notches. The driver may the more safely judge his speed for the curve, and the passengers in the car may feel the more comfortable in knowing they will not go headlong into an unseen car
 Elimination of curves adds still more to the safety of travel on this paved highway. In one place below Lowell five separate curves have been strengthened out, and now instead of a bending, winding highway this spot is long arrow-like stretch. Inciden- tally, one of the curves which has been eliminated has been the scene in the past of several more or less serious accidents.
 On the new paved highway from Douglas to Risbee motor car trips will be one of the greatest delights of tourists and of residents of the districts in close proximity to the road. Thirty-five to forty-five min utes will be ample for the most con servative driver to make the trip. No dangers from passing other cars will be felt. All of the dips and grades of former highways will be eliminated The trip will be as de- lightful and as easy as drive over level city pavement orr boulevard.
 As Skilfully Built As Railroad D.
 The highway leads out of oDuglas paralleling the Fl Paso & Southwest ern railroad tracks. It is sufficiently elevated to be dry at all seasons. As you speed over it's level surface you are surprised to note how nearly it parallels the railroad in construction. You are impressed with the fact that the same care and the same engi- neering experience has gone into the highway as was used in throwing up the railroad bed As you progress on the road this feature is more strik- ingly illustrated.
 At Forrest Station the highway leaves the railroad and turns to the north and west. Here the difficulty of construction was even more mark ed than along the lower stretch. Grades were different Drainage came more directly against the high way than formerly. Larger areas lay

In the same manner, road builders will assist the farmer, for in their chaining of the waters from the moun- tains they will force them into chan nefs already cut away, taking them out of the many channels and throw ing them into the few.

road construction in this state. It is all cross drainage, and the water comes from many miles of mountains and hills and valleys to pour down onto the road bed. For this reason the highway was built up from the ground. Along the side are drainage ditches, converging at regular inter- vals into culverts or under bridges.

would best assist in handling the drainage problem.
 This great map which was so care fully prepared was the foundation of the work about which the Bisbee- Douglas. highway was constructed. Before a foot of dirt was moved, be- fore a preliminary line was decided on as final line, this map was con suited. It was the key to every yard of road.
 But why build up that great dike across the desert?" you will ask
 Typographical Map Gives Answer
 The typographical map gives the answer, Here, in this canyon which reaches back in the hills five miles and which drains an area of fifty square miles, the heaviest rainfall in the past six years has been so many inches, says the map. Practically ev- cry inch of this water has drained off because of the hard surface and rock. The road must be constructed sos that if another such rain should come Snot one inch of this water will flow over the highway. Every inch must be carried through a bridge or culvert. If this is accomplished the highway will be intact when your Grandchildren drive over it. If not, you must rebuild it sometime soon, for surely it will wash out.
 That is the story of the topograph. inol ic cfA 1f off x,t highway construction, road building from the maintainance standpoint It is the story of how much must rbe known of the country before a road can bebuilt through a part of the country. It is the story of what ex. perience has taught in the transition from the old stage coach to the mod. ern automobile highway, built for ex tensive travel, saefty and comfort.
 Safety is big item in the Bisbee Douglas stretch. On the Bisbee Tombstone highway bank junted out into the center of a curve so that nc person rounding the curve could see to the far side of it. Brush on the bank obscured the other side. So the engineer cut away the brush, and the car going west now can see if a car is on the other side of the junt

 Go back to Douglas. Start west over the Bisbee-Douglas highway. It was constructed in the same manner as the roads from Bisbee to Benson were built. Every foot of the entire stretch was built from the maintain ance standpoint, for the convenience

Here and there a modern school house bespeaks prosperity and advancement of the community, and a garage and automobile at nearly every farm house is testimony to the productiveness of the land.

Pioneer settlers will tell you that when they came forty years ago the San Pedro was little stream with a channel over which a horse could jump at nearly any point. To day the channel is often 20 to 30 feet deep and in many places 100 yards wide. No arroyos had been eaten in- to the sides of the river forty years ago. Today arroyos as deep as the river channel have eaten back into the farm lands, tearing away acres of rich soils, until in places they have extended back to the highway, half-mile from the river banks.
