BASE BALL

Sunday was a red letter day. The wind didn't blow.
 Holbrook was invaded by a real ball team last Sunday when Leupp came to town. This band of braves staged a fine exhibition of ball, as well as sportsmanship. They didn't walk off with the game by any manner of means. They had to fight every inch of the way, and for thirteen innings, too. Up until the fast inning it was anybody's game, with of course Hol- brook the favorite. Hol- brook should not have lost the game. Errors did the work. This is not meant in a spirit of criticism; our boys played exceptional ball, but the eight errors made by Holbrook shows that the Indians hitting was by no means slow. Howard, the enemy pitcher. was GOOD. In fact the box score credits him with IS strikeouts. Reuter- pitched the heady l game which we have learned l to expect from him. Crum- ley starred at bat, three hits out of five times up. Thomp- son, the new End baseman played faultless ball in the field. Engle, in the field was, as usual, sterling; but showed a tendency to invade territory not his which the manager should curb. Lead en relieved Swatzel in the first of the ninth and dis played one burst of big time stuff as well as universally | good work. No decision of either of the umps. met with serious questioning.
 All in all, a very pleasant time was had.

Nogales. Ariz., June 22--Drill. CTS at work on the Wolferton ranch, on the east side of the Whetstone mountains in Santa Cruz county. struck oil today. according to reports brought here. Some of the men return ing from the well brought samp- les of the product of the well. The oil was struck at a depth of 32O feet. This is believed to be the first oil ever struck in Ariz- ona.
 Patagonia, a smalli town near where the drilling occurred. is greateIy excited over the strike. A number of residents of that town left for the well as soon as word of It's success was recei- yed. Several companies are be- 1pg formed there to locate lands for drilling in the vicinity of the Wolferton ranch.
 Geologists here aud at Pata- eonia who have visited the new we'll say chat the oil shale is of the same character as that en- countered in the oil fields in the vicinity of Tampico, Mexico. Morning Journal

ELKS FROLIC

On last Saturday afternoon che Elks staged an outdoor performance on the streets of Holbrook under the guid- ance of P. A. Lerch, master of ceremonies, which was both good a n d amusing. Various candidates were ar rayed in finery galore and all were duly hand-painted.
 Mayor Cooley, himself an Elk, conducted a part of the exercises with a great deal of pep. Charley carried a rope which he used frequent ly to drag out of the lime light some discredited, vari- colored performer, who at the suggestion of Charley either sang, made a speech or did some other stunt to the evident entertainment of the crowd.
 Candidate Darling wa s earley in the afternoon plac- ed in the county bastile, but was later released on bond signed by friendly E l k s. The nature of the charge has not come to light as yet.
 Candidate Claud Oneal was given a bundle of papers with instructions to S e l l them. He was the butt of good natured raiIlery be- cause he failed to make good as a newsboy. However, he did the best he could.
 Ted Reuter- tried his voice on the crowd but was quick ly roped and dragged from the spotlight, it b ein g thought that his voice needs further cultivation.
 Mac Evans said he would rather ride the COW than at- tempt to make a speech. The cow didn't take very kindly to Mac.
 Miss Olive Clarke, a very interested spectator, decIar- ed that if Mac were going to be an Elk, she would be a little deer (dear,)
 Each and everyone of the boys was compelled to do some stunt. Cowley did d shadow boxing speech; Darl- ing and Weast rode the COW, and Sutherland and Graves each sang a song. Moore made a speech.
 By the way of diversion, the boys were paraded a. round town several times, signing, Hail! Hail! t h e gangs all here-''

A. C. A. WILL BENEFIT STATE

Phoenix, June 21. Wal ter Elliott, former project
 manager with the Salt River
 Valley Water Users Associ-
 ation, has been retained as
 consulting and fielding engi-
 neer for the Automobile Club
 of Arizona, it was announc-
 ed today by s. J. Ross, presi-

 One of the first duties to
 be taken up by MT. Elliott
 will be the preparation of a
 general road map of the state, showing all routes used in auto travel. In this
 work he will have the assis- tance of county engineer and the state highway depart ment, and the result will be. it is expected, the first de- tailed and complete guide ever prepared for the auto tourists in the state.
 The preparation of map represents a tremendous a. of preliminary work, including the logging of every road in the state. Data secured on these trips will be used in designating on the map the distance be- tween every point on a given route, and the location of all land marks.
 The logging of the road is also necessary to mark spots for the placing of highway signs to be erected by the dub. All forks and inter- sections will be signed and n addition signs will be placed every five miles, with owns and distances marked, ,hus giving the traveller as- urance that he is on the fight road, Danger signals will also be placed wherever leeded.

Why SOME DYES ARE ..FAsT~
Vegetable and Animal Compounds So.
perior to Any Products OF the
Chemists Laboratory.

Some dyes are FAST" others fade
either when the goods are washed or
when they are exposed to the sunlight
The fastness or otherwise OF color
depends upon the arrangement of the
atoms that make up Its molecules. IL
these be closely interviewer, neither
light nor water can separate them;
but if they are loosely Joined together
light and water make them disinte-
crate. Most of our modern dyes are
derived from coal tar and consist Of
atoms of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen
and other elements. The vegetable
dyes usually contain no other elements
but carbon, hydrogen and oxygen.
That is why, being so simple, such
>cOl0rs as lOgwOod and natural indigo
are the fastest of all. The few AMI
NAL dyes-cochineal, for example
are fast for the same reason. But
the so-called anilin dyes are the prod
uct of the chemists laboratory and
are complex and loosely bound COM
binations Of the atoms Of many ele-
ments. There are acid dyes and al
kaline dyes, and before applying them
to any stuff one must know whether
the cells Of this are acid or alkaline
in reaction. For oppodtes attract.
likes repel. Therefore we must use
acid dyes for alkaline materials and
alkaline dyes for acid materials.

DECISION CUT LEGAL TANGLE
Point Involved In English Lawsuit
Seems Hardly Worth the Time
and Money Expended.

On the last day Of the last month
In the year 1909 very curious legal
battle was fought between the English
crown and a gentleman, lord Of the
manor of Holderness; it was strug-
gle for cask of wine thrown upon
the seashore on the coast of that par
ticular manor.
The lords bailiffs and the customs
officers both raced to the spot and the
contending parties each laid hold Of
the cask. Then the officers decided
to go back to the custom house for
further Instructions, and during their
absence the bailiffs removed the cask
to the cellar Of the manor house.
At the trial the arguments on both
sides were very learned and exceed
ingly lengthy. The decision Of the
court was in favor of the lord on the
grounds that no permit is required to
remove spirits unless it has paid duty;
that wine to be liable to duty must
be imported; that wine cannot be i'm
ported by itself, but requires the
agency of someone else to do it; that,
therefore wine wrecked, having come
on shore by itself or without human
volition or intention, was not import
ed, and was not subject to duty, and
did not require a permit for It's re-
moval.-Chicago Journal.
