ROAD COMM|SS|ONA "A. n. JACK BUYS
ANSWERSCHAMBER SHIPPING CONCERN

The Randolph Marketing Company
Of Brawley closed its doors perman-
emily yesterday. 1t is understood that
A. N. Jack, resident manager, and sew
eral of his associates have taken over
the business Of the company and will
operate N the future as a corpora
ton.
1.-The company has just closed a very
successful season and it would have
been better for our new organization
If the present deal had been closed be-
fore rather than after the season."
said Mr.. Jack to a newspaper repre-
sentative yesterday.
"As it is we believe that the canta-
loupe and lettuce business. to say
nothing Of the possibilities of honey
dews, will develop rapidly, and we
hope to be as prosperous in the future
as the Randolph Marketing company
has been in the past.
'The company does it's own farming
and has leased about 900 acres. This
acreage may be slightly reduced un-
der our new management but on that
point we are not certain yet. We are
taking over everything from tack
to a tractor and will be fully equipped
to handle all the acreage we will need
for our customers.
During the past season we shipped
the first onions, first tomatoes and
honey dews that went out of Imperial
Valley and believe we have cause to be
proud of our accomplishments. We
We're shipping onions before any
went either from Coachella Valley in
this state or from Brownsville county
in Texas.
"Our experience with honey dews
has been highly satisfactory. Due to
careful laid plans and their execution
we We're shipping honey dews before
anyone else and continued steadily and
are the last to ship them also. Our
final shipments will go out Tuesday"

BORDER CITY NEEDS
MANY NEW HOMES

The CaIeXico Chronicle has the fol-
lowing to say with reference to the
scarcity Of houses:
The demand for houses in CaleXieo
still continues. Although in the mid
die Of the heated term. people are
looking for homes and daily a number
come to the Chronicle office and con-
suit the files in their quest for places
to live.
Big houses and little houses, fur
niShed and unfurnished are all being
sought and there is, even with so many
people out of the valley, heavy de-
if any are vacant for any period.
What it will be like next fall can
only be conjectured. The bumper
crops indicated by present conditions
will mean great many new people
coming to CaleXico and they will have
no place to go if present crowded con-
ditions continue, which they no doubt
will.
What has been said heretofore re-
garding the building of houses as an
investment here holds good and it is
wise move on the part or people
with money to build.

Old Love Affair
Gets Man II, Bad

In Justice of the Peace Mayfeld's
court this morning J. V. Bartell was
placed under a peace bond Of $500 for
alleged threats against c. w. Jones.
The affair is the result of an old
love triangle, it is said. Bartell al
leges that Jones owes him some money
and that he threatened to whip him
if he did not pay it. Justice Mayfield
found that Bartell had made threats
against Jones and held him to keep
the peace and fixed his bond at $500
and committed him to the custody Of
the sheriff until the bond is put up.

PALACE HAS ORCHESTRA

The management Of the Palace the
ater airdome has obtained an orchestra
which. it is said, excells any in the
valley. 1t is the former Barbar Worth
orchestra with a few replacements.
The music which they give the Ell
Centre movie fans is claimed by many
to be one of the main attractions at
the Palace airdome.
The orchestra has special pieces of
music which are especially adapted for
the different pictures as they come
to the theater, and this coupled with
the excellent manner of presentation
is special inducement for the Palace
audiences.

MEXICAN LABORERS

Superintendent John Henry of
Water Company No. 3 states that eX-

the imported Mexican labor brought
in through permission of the immi-
grafton authorities. Fifty laborers
we're imported. % of whom were sin
gle men, and 25 married men with
families. They are easily managed
and not unlike the Mexican help al
ready in the valley except that not one
is able to speak English and it re-
uuires Spanish speaking foremen to

SIR Upton GOOD SPORT

Sir Thomas Upton, known the
world over as keen and genial
sportsman has challenged four times
for the Americas Cup. In 1899 his
challenger was the Shamrock l. She
was beaten by the Columbia. the
American defender. Lipton's Sham
rock II was defeated by the Columbia
again in 1901. Two years later when
Sir Thomas sent out the Shamrock
III, the Yankee sloop Reliance was the
winner. This year, as before, Sir
Thomas hopes to win and he has
brought vessel across the Atlantic
that the critics here agree is the most
dangerous looking boat of all the
Shamrocks.
FEWER WAGFRS THIS YEAR
A great deal less money than usual
has changed hands in Wall Street this
year on the result of these races, be-
cause those who have seen the en0r-
NOUS sail spread of the c.amrock "
declare that she is wonder in light
weather, for which she was especially
built. Light breeZes generally pre-
vail off Sandy Hook in July, this
being the first time Il cup race has
been sailed in that month, September
and October having been previously
chosen.
30 MILES COURSES
The yachts will sail over 20 mule
course each day. The first day will
be Is miles to winward or leaward and
return. The second race will be sailed
over a nequilatcral triangle of ten
miles to the leg and the other threa
races alternating over similar courses
until one yacht has won three of the
five races. The water line measure
ment of both yachts is alike--75 feet.
Their over all measurement is rot eX-
actly known at this time, but it will
be close to l30 feet. The sail area of
feet. Each yacht carries Il crew of
about 40 men. The Shamrock ~ IS
fitted with a centre-board. She is the
first challenger to adopt that Amerl-
can product.
THOUSANDS WILL SEE RACE
Thousands will go down New York
bay and out to sea in big excursion
steamers to see the races and cheer
on their respective faVorites. Each
of the races must be completed in six
hours, or the race for that day Is de-
clared off The Shamrock W. on ac-
count of her extra sail area and larger
body, will have to allow the Resolutc
about six minutes of time over the
80 mile course. That means for eX-
ample that if the Resolute crosses the
finish line five minutes, SO seconds
after the Shamrock ", she will still
be the winner, the starting time of
each yacht being the same.
AMATEUR YACHTSMEN CREWS
An interesting feature of this
years race, and one that appeals not
only TO yachtsmen but also to the
legion of sportsment on both sides Of
the Atlantic is the fact that each Of
these splendid contenders for the
Americas Cup, while manned by pro-
fessional crews will be steered and
navigated in the races for the first
time by amateur, or corinthian yachts
men. The American yacht Resolute
will have az her helmsman Charles
