IA Man Up a Tree. /"


Isome times talk like a man up
a tree,
A little drink of toddy won't
hurt anybody,
So | sip ginger stew, and an
eggnog too.
The filthy weed it doesn't hurt
to chew,
| will chew the filthy weed and
make the amber fly,
And squirt a quart of poison
in the black cats eye.
An inch is as good as a mile.
1t dosn't hurt to barely get to
Heaven by the skin of your
teeth,
So | will not try to land so high
and dry.
The pie that | eat now, is not as
good,
AS the pie that my grandma
cooked in the long gone bye.
Of fried chicken, the gizzard is
always mine,
Twill fork it long and fork it
Strong,
| will have the gizzard right or
wrong.
Of all the books that were ever
writ,
The Almanac is the easiest yet,
You sprinkle down the months
and days,
And talk about the wether's
ways, >.
The rain, the hail, the sleet,
the snow,
Miss it all and let it go.
Of the the butchers that ever
come,
The foolkiller will be the blood
lest one,
He will kill and STAY from sun
to sun,
And and never get the killing
done. -
Ny waterbury got in a hurry, |
Let it have its way,
Until it licked away the future
tense and half the judgment
day.
So goodbye kind reader, I've got
to go.
And wind it back a million
years or so.

ROUND ROBIN ASKS FOR RATIFICATION
 IF SUFFRAGE BILL

That those interested in woman suf- frage, and in the suffrage amend ment to the federal constitution are making a determined effort to have Arizona in the column of states that will have special sessions of the legis- lature for the purpose of ratification has been known for some time.
 While on his recent road inspection trip. a representative of the suffrage headquarters from New York followed Governor Campbell to Flagstaff and there urged upon him the advisability of calling a special session of one day for this purpose.
 The governor took the stand that the state would not be justified in the expense, as there will probably be 36 states that can ratify the amendment in the near future without special ses- sions.
 He was asked if he would call the session of one day for this purpose if the members of the legislature would agree to pay their own way to the capital and expenses, and not to ask for pay for the brief session. This he agreed to.
 Yesterday the governors secretary, P. R. Mines, received from Mrs. H. A Guild, president of the Arizona Fed eration of Woman's Clubs. letters and a round robin circulated by the com mittee on ratification of the federa-

PHOENIX PEOP[E CROWDED FIRST TRAINS FUR HUME
Train Service Restored After a Week of Strike Tieup- First Cars to Arrive Were Filled With Home-Re- turning Vacationists

They are coming home those Phoe- nicians who were marooned on the coast by the railway strike, coming home as fast as they can get trans portation.
 The vanguard rolled in yesterday on the first trains that have reached Phoe- nix from the coast for about a week. And the trains were loaded; extra sleepers, extra day coaches and all 'oaded to capacity.
 Quite a lot of well known Phoenix people "came home by the first train" literally Prof. J. D. Loper, superin- tendent Of the city schools: Jimmie" Jones, "Bill' Bradley, F. c. Struck meyer, and a lot of others hurried nome to sec how the home town looked after a few days absence.
 Jones said that the rush of people who wanted to go somewhere from Los Angeles was astonishing. There was line four abreast and half a block long besieging the Santa Fe ticket of flee, and a similar line trying to secure transportation over the Southern Pa- cific.
 Some got berths, but a lot did not. and the first trains that arrived car ried a number of men, women and children who sat up all night and were glad to do it to get home. Home al- ways looks better to folks, it seems, when they are unable to get there.
 Some of the passengers report that the strike at BarstoW tied LID eight through trains carrying upward of a thousand people who lived aboard the sfeepers at the little desert station for four days, being fed at the Harvey

tion in California, signed by Mrs. Rob- ert J. Burdette. The round robin is signed by the governor of California, and is to be sent to each governor in the west. It agrees that, in the event enough governors agree to call ses sions to ratify the amendment that each signer will do so.
 In the absence of the governor, Secretary Mines appended the follow ing note:
 While do not feel privileged to sign the name of Governor Campbell to the round robin I am in position to state that the governor has, in the past six weeks, by verbal and written communication. declared that when q sufficient number of states guaranteed enactment of the suffrage amendment he would call special session for that purpose. Only three members of the legislature have written stating they would pay their own expenses in event of a special session, although I have been given to understand that such a proposition was placed before all of them by the National Suffrage associ- ation."

LEONARD AGREES TO APPEAR IN PHOENIX
 CECIL BOYCE HEARS

Negotiations which Cecil D. Boyce, manager for the Maricopa Athletic club for bringing championship con test to Phoenix are approaching an end which he feels sure will be sue cessful. They have been carried on through H. M Walker, sporting editor of the Los Angeles Examiner, from whom MT Boyce last night received the following telegram:
 Los Angeles. Cal, Aug. 30. Cecil D. Boyce,
 204 National Bank of Ariz. Bldg,
 Phoenix, Arizona.
 Finally landed Benny Leonard. worlds lightweight champion for you, What date do you want him? What sort of an offer shall I make him?
 H. M. WALKER.
 Mr. Boyce tried to get Leonard for Phoenix on Labor Day but he objected to training in this climate at this time of the year and so fought in Philadel- phia on August 22. In case of his ap- pearance in Phoenix the contender for the championship will be either Johnny Dundee or Irish Patsy'' Cline
 It is the expectation of MT. Boyce that the flight will take place during 1diT N6ch- CutH d HlbGllHS WOufl bring fight followers here from all parts of the Pacific coast and many from the east. That the money re- quired to entice Leonard here can he raised, there is no doubt among locai sport followers.
 George Kelly, scout for the Detroit Americans, who is here now and whe will referee the Wolgast- France fight at the clubs area at Alhambra to- night. is a close friend of Billy Gibson manager for Leonard. and is lending his assistance toward bringing tht champion here.
 It was expected that Mir.

EDITH SIDES CLAIM VICTORY TN SIGHT"
 IN ACTORS STRIKE

NEW YORK, Aug. 31.-While it was impossible to learn authoritatively to- night whether the Producing Manag- CTS Protective association intended to recognize the Actors Equity associa- ton in the offer of a new form of actors contract announced last night, il was strongly hinted that the man. agers were planning an attempt to open the strike bound theaters with players furnished by the Actors Fi- delity league.
 Officials of the equity were claiming victory as lin sight" as a result of the managers new contract. The new con tract granted virtually all of the equitys demands save that for un- equivocal recognition of ,the equity.
 All day today directors of the fi delity were in conference
 Frank Gilmore, secretary of the equity association, made public tonight d letter from Samuel Untermeyer warning the actors that he believes them wrong in disclaiming any thought of insisting upon the closed shop he declared it would be but short time until the managers, by discrimination against equity members, would have wrecked the organization.
 An important development is ex- peeted tomorrow night when members of the Motion Picture Plays associa,- tion will hold meeting to discuss plans for aiding striking actors.
