GETTING HOME.
Getting home is best. / gay! .
Though it's fun to &c away,
And there's pleasure / ma trip
Overland or on a ship.
Taking you to splendors new,
After all the journeys through,
Makes no difference where you roam
There's no thrill like getting home.
Maybe with a humping heart
You look forward to the start.
And you think you'll never set
Quite enough of travel, vet
After you have 3ourneyed far
Where the nations wonders e
Soon you'll find you hunger for
All the folks at home once more
You may laugh and sing and shout
AS you wander. In. and out,
Meeting new friends everywhere,
Seeing glories here and there,
But these joys at last will pAN
And you'll wish above it all
For that happiest moment when
You'll be- starting home again.
Trips are glorious things to take,
,Journeys% everyone should make,
There are places good to be.
Much the eye OF man should zee.
But where you so.
This You'll surely. come to know
Best thing trains can dosis when
They get You back home again.

N|MRODS READY FUR OPENING IF AND TURK
 SEASON TONIGHT

Game wardens have scattered out over the state il. many directions, and intend to keep a sharp lookout on the nimroc who rames to take a chance i'll killing deer before one minute after F o'clock tonight.
 Hundreds of sportsmen have taken to the great outdoors in search of wild turkey and deer, and it will be a great moment in outdoor life when dawn breaks over the horizon Satur- day morning For the anxious hunt CTS who have been waiting for good many moons will then have a chance, according to law. to bag their limit on big bucks with possibility of winning the beautiful Savage 300 rifle which will be awarded by the firm of Pinney & Robinson for the first deer of the season brought to their store on Central avenue.
 Deer have been reported more plentiful than ever before, and at the same time there seems to be a much keener interest over the opening of the season. The wilds now will be turned into many camping places, and the bullets will be flying in all directions.
 Experts state in hunting the fleet footed creatures the fact that buck fever'' sometimes is the cause of
 many a miss, and unless one goes
 out with the intention of looking for deer they might see some other crea- ture parading around, in which case look before you shoot, and shoot be- fore it leaps.
 The first deer will, in all prob
 ability, reach Phoenix tomorrow be- fore noon; however. in the event that l it does not. the prize trophy will be
 given to the first hunter bringing in
 his buck" even if it is on the sec-
 ond or third day. Deer and turkey season remains open until Oct 31,
 and while +here will be many sports men unable to get out on the open ing day. they will have plenty of op-
 portunity to enjoy a big game hunt 1 during the month.

SEVEN BOUTS ON
 T0N|GHT'S CARD. 1T CAP|TAL CITY BOXING STADIUM

Dad Brought is going to give the fans a treat .and the embryo sistic champs real treat at the Capital City stadium this evening.
 Seven bouts of four rounds each have been arranged with the best local talent available in eah event. The boys have been working for this show and the fans have been waiting to look 'em over. The winners will be given another chance one week from Friday when the big show is staged Every fighter who makes good this evening will be on the preliminary list for the main event at the next fight.
 Popular prices will prevail with the best seats selling at $1 and general admission 90 cents including war tax. Ladies will be admitted free.
 The Washington street car passes the arena and ample service will be provided to take care of the fans The arena is located at Sixteenth and Jefferson streets.
 Ira O'NeiH and Bill Bailey will top the card fin a four-round session at 150 pounds. Bailey is new one in local fight circ4cs, out Ira has been there before If Bailey beats Ira the
 
 Joe Grim and Burke Gholston will open the show with a four-round bout at 145. Two new ones and both full of fight.
 Young Nicks and Young Rivers come second. Nicks showed plenty of stuff when he fought Young Mike. but an injured hand put him out of the running in the second round. Rivers will fight if he is forced and Nicks will keep him busy
 Manuel Portia and Rufas-The Two will step four rounds. Rufus has been playing in hard luck lately and unless Portia shows better than he did in his last fight Rufus win not be taking any chances on a refere's decision.
 Dick Campbell and Young Hedge path rock the scales at 133 pounds. In the workout they both look good and barring stage fright they will give the fans their full dollars worth.
 Dummy Madden and Fereguel must be pretty good to get the semi final considering the class of the boys fur ther down on the card.
 Then Ira and Bailey will open their little argument
 1.-The first bout will start at SIS p. m. with the other scraps following in quick orders Dad Brought prom ises no delays and fight from the gong. The referee can rule lem off if they don't fight and Dad has given enough variety that he can stop any stallers and still give the fans a run for their money.

Everything is in readiness for an extra charge of pep" that will tarn these bowling coyotes into a grand offensive to impress upon the public the importance of the annual alumni clash.
