Tom Grant, wrestler and jiu jitsu expert, who meets Pete Sauer at Tally's arena tonight in a wrestling match that bids fair to decide who will be the next light heavyweight wrestling champion of the world, arrived in Phoe- nix less than month ago, practically unknown and unheralded. But his sensational match with Pete Sauer on the night of July 23, which ended in a draw after two hours and fifteen minutes of strenuous work, brought him into the limelight and won for him hundreds of admirers who were amazed at the wonderful exhibition of wrestling staged by one who admittedly entered the ring a sick man, yet through sheer ganeness managed to break even with one of the best light -heaVyw weights in the country at the present time.
 Since that night Tom Grant has added a host of friends to the legion already won on the night of his first appearance in this city. His gentle manly manner, gracious ways and charm of speech have endeared him to all that have come in contact with him,

A telegram from Lieutenant Colonel Gaursot commanding the First Cavalry at Douglas. to Adjutant General In- gals yesterday, stated that the former would arrive in Phoenix early next week to assist in making an estimate of the expenses of taking Troop A to tbe encampment at Douglas in Sep feuber.

when they meet at Tally's open air arena this evening.
 Last Match Lasted Two Hours
 Sauer and Grant grappled and twist ed for two hours and fifteen minutes without a fall on July g. Any fan who witnessed the test of strength and abil- 1ty of these two men in the previous contest will admit they are just about as evenly matched as two men can possibly be- There is nothing to choose, except the prejudice that all ways follows the favorite. Some dis cussion has been started over the physical condition of the two men when they met, but there should be no argument over the physical condition of a man who is able to stand the two 1 hour grind of a wrestling match. Mat Game Is Real Test None of the present day athletic con- tests give the athlete a more thor
 ough test of strength and physical condition than wrestling. It does not | seem possible that two men, not in perfect physical condition, could go | through the same work as Sauer and Grant when they wrestled July 23. It | proves beyond any question of doubt I that physical fitness is one of the l greatest attributes of the mat game. There is nothing brutal when two trained men grapple for a fall, but to the weaxling wrestling seems tor l turouS pastime.
 Sauer and Grant will stage a finish
 wrestling match at Tally's arena this evening. The bout will go to a finish
 if it takes all night or all week. The
 fans must be satisfied which man is the champion toe twister of the south l west. Sauer, the home town favorite,
 is looked upon as an idol and Grant is eager to displace him in the eyes of the public. If he succeeds in pin- ming Sauers back to the mat Friday night he will be entitled to all honors, and if he fails the home town fans will know that a champion wrestler is in the making right here in Phoenix. Two preliminary numbers will usher in the evenings program, with the
 Phoenix city band keeping the pap in working order.
 In case of rain, the contest will be held Saturday night.

and while he is several degrees above the average wrestler in education he is an ardent booster of the wrestling game and anxious to elevate it to a higher plane.
 Grant is also booster of the Paige car. In the above picture he is shown standing beside the Paige that he has driven since his arrival in Phoenix. This car has been loaned to him through the courtesy of Harry Hunter, sales manager of Watson Brothers, 10S North Second avenue, state distribut- ors for the Paige car. Grant is the owner of a Paige "Clenbrook'' model. which he drives when at home in Spo- kane, Wash. He has driven his Paige more than 15.000 miles and claims it is as good as new, having made only a few miscellaneous adjustments since purchasing his car.
 He has used this car to drive to points in the state of Washington where he has appeared in wrestling matches and the Paige has won as much fame as Tom has. However, when he is a long distance from home he is not able to

CLEVER MAT ARTISTS WILL MEET AT TALLY'S ARENA THIS EVENING

Eeter Sauer and Tom Grant will be the top-hners in tonight's athletic card art ranged for Tally's Arena, with two good preliminary numbers to edge off the card
 7dore interest has been displayed in this evenings wrestling contest than any athletic event ever staged in this city, and possibly in the southwest. That the stadium will be crowded to ,ra 7acity when the wrestlers meet to- nHsht is conceded by those who have bee following the game since it's in sU guration in this city.
 Both athletes arc good clean boys a CT edit to any profession and an asset 10 the wrestling game. Neither lad has a mark of rowdyism in his makeup despite the age-old idea that wrestler cs mot follow the game and remain aaove suspicion.
 Sauer has been one of the big boosts fer wrestling in Phoenix and Grant is oofng his bit to help create interest in the sport and keep the game before the sporting public.
 Grant Crafty Wrestler
 Tom Grant is said to be one of the r-aftiest wrestlers following the mat game at the present time, and the equal of famed wrestlers of 15 or 20 years ago. Followers of wrestling, as Fracticed today, may not be familiar with the tricks of the game of which re olden mat artist overcame big han ticaps and conquered his unsuspecting opponent. but they are willing to learn

GOVERNOR DISCOVERS
 THERE ARE SEVERAL.
 WAYS TO SKIN 4 CA1

The things one can do when he is up against it; the makeshifts that are available when there is no other way put, are surprising, as Governor Camp bell and his party found out in the hundred miles through the strip" and Tn their return. They had made the Journey without an accident until they reached Lees Ferry on their way home- At the Ferry the party was on she wrong side of stream known as Pieri creek, probably emanating from the famous Pierian spring of which Alexander Pope warned people to drink deeply or not at all. The creek enters the Colorado at this point and t was necessary to cross it to reach the ferry.
 The great flood in the Colorado dur ing the present season had filled the mouth of the creek with a great sand bar and ahd overlaid it with a beau liful deposit of silt over which the waters of the creek flowed in thin sheet The travellers were suspicious of this combination, but the ferryman, who was supposed to know. told them that he could tow them across. He spoke with so great confidence that their doubts vanished. But when their automobile struck the silt it began to seek the depth of things. The Charon of Lees Ferry was mistaken and ad- 1nitted his error. The Buick was ap- parently there to stay.
 But some cowboys of the Grand Canyon Cattle company happened along and with their aid and that of the ferryman the travellers finally ex tricated themselves and the automo- . bile which by this time had been thor oughly immersed in the sand and silt It was necessary to take the macbin- cry all apart to remove the sand from the bearings. That is something tha at one time or another happens within the experience of many autolsts- Th' sand was cleaned out finally. whei something else was discovered. It wa found that the oil in the machine ha' become thoroughly impregnated witt sand. An effort was made to filter il | Nobody in that party had ever befor tried to filter oil, or the experlmen would not have been undertaken Bu there seemed nothing else to do, for al the oil in the party was in the machine and the nearest station where nor could be procured was at Tuba City 40 miles away, just twice the distanc from Sheridan to Winchester.
 It was plainly impossible to run a automobile 40 miles without oil. so tha something had to be done. The ferry man remembered that he had about gallon Of lard. That was melted an poured into the various places abou inc machine where fabrication is nee Governor Campbell, it smelled all tn way as if somebody was frying baco for breakfast. That seemed to be ~- sign that the lubricant was deteriorat ing fast. so that progress was slo over that 40-mile stretch, but finall the machine was brought into the sta ton under it's own lard.

 This affords young men an oppor- tunity for fine vacation without cost, and it was thought that if that feature of it were presented many young men would hasten to join. It was also sug- gested that business men whose en- ployes were about to set out their vacations would prefer to have them join the troop for this outing if for no other reason. They would return with degree of pep which no other sort of a vacation could give them.

Harding and his managers were
visibly heartened in their hopes Of
breaking into the solid south Nov.

New York. Oct. 1l.-Republicans
