their marriage. makes one Of the most

The little left-hander held Winslow run- less after that. He had everything speed, curves, control and brains. If klngman had put him in at the start of the final, or had substituted him for McGowan as soon as it was evi- dent that the latter's bandaged arm couldn't stand the strain, Kingnan would have won easily.
 Miller, who recently helped Seattle shut out Salt Lake City, arrived here Sunday night with his brother, of Cashion, Arizona, a partner with the Babbitt Brothers in the cattle busi- ness there.
 As result of the tournament, the Flagstaff and Holbrook teams each won $1OO, Kingman $500 and Wins low $500"

Hastily con- structed shades were put up to sup plement the tents and under these shades the birth of the village was duly christened. It was a gala oc- casion and everybody appeared to for get the heat in their enjoyment of the festivities.
 After luncheon many of the men who are interested in the mining game visited the big lodes of the camp and were duly impressed with their im- portance. The largest vein crops in a big bluff, against which the high waters of the Colorado river swirl. A tunnel had in some past age been driven into the vein from the river side, but the high water had complete ly submerged this work. From the outcrop chunks of ore were broken that showed free gold and it is said that the vein carries rather high mill values. The whole surrounding terri tory has been located and work will

Recommendations

Recommendations are: It is rec commended that through suitable leg islation the United States participate in the construction of the Boulder Canyon reservoir and the high line canal from Laguna dam to the I'm .perial Valley iii proportion to the in terests of the public lands and the h. dian lands as set forth in this report.
 "It is recommended that the Secre- tary of the Interior be authorized to enter immediately into contracts with such States, counties, municipalities and other interests as may desire to participate in the benefits of the con- struction herein recommended, provid- ing that each participating agency furnish funds with which to defray it's apportionate share of the expense, as allocated by board to be appointed.
 "It is recommended that there be appointed a board of three competent persons, who shall not be resident in any of the States affected by the de- cisions of the board and who shall have no financial interest in those de- cisions, one being an irrigation engi- neer, one power engineer and one learned in irrigation law, to allocate the cost and benefits of the proposed construction and assess the cost upon those receiving the benefits in propor- tion to such benefits. The decisions of this board should supersede the preliminary allocation recommended in this report and contract should be entered into with all participating

The country surrounding the camp is we'll mineralized and we are under the im- pression that one of the big gold camps of Nevada will soon be under active development. The men at the head of affairs feel confident that they have a good thing and will press the work to the limit.
 A new road has been laid out from Hico spring to the camp, the outlet beng either to Needles or Search light, or the route may be used to get to the coast.
 In the cool of the evening the party returned to their homes well satisfied with their participation in baptismal ceremonies.

 On Boulder Canyon Dam

 5,OOO,000 is reserved for flood control. it is possible to develop over 100000 firm horsepower.
 Huge Power
 "With the entire 100000 acres of irrigable land developed in the lower basin the possibilities are still 100000 firm horsepower and besides this there is in both cases a large amount of secondary power which is not con- stant but will be of considerable value .
 "The great value of this power and the wide demand for it, together with its magnitude, indicates that the pow CT privileges of the Boulder Canyon reservoir should bear the major DOT tion of the cost of the dam. For pre- liminary purposes, it is recommended that this portion be fixed at 75 per cent, subject to adjustment by board appointed for this purpose. |
 Markets For Power
 "The markets for power are numer- ous and various in this part of the country, consisting in general of the mining interests in Nevada and Ari- zona, the pumping requirements in the Colorado River valleys and the needs of the municipalities of Arizona and Southern California for municipal and commercial uses. Possible municipal customers of importance are Prescott, San Diego, Riverside and Los Angeles.
 "The last named city has indicated a desire to share in this development. This city has already developed con- siderable power on the Los Angeles Aqueduct and owns a system for dis tributing electric current within the city limits. The demands, present and prospective are far beyond the capa- city of the city to supply with present facilities and this is considered the most effective and extensive of all the power demands. <. ....
 Los Angeles Included
 Tt is desirable of course to extend to all municipalities which desire to share in this development the same privileges, but in the tentative allot- ment of power the city of Los Angeles

 Following is the way the writer for the Coconino Sun saw the two games:
 Sunday afternoon was a burlesque game. It soon became apparent that neither Kingman nor Holbrook was as strong team as the Flagstaff nine that had been eliminated a few hours before.

 It was fun for the spectators, King man got three in the first, two in the second, four in.the third, three in the sixth, eight in the seventh, seven in eighth and one in the ninth; Holbrook one in the second, three in the third, three in the fourth, three in the fifth, two in the seventh, one in the eighth and two in the ninth. Final score; Kihgman, 29; Holbrook, 13. Empires, Phlliam and Cusick.
 Sunday afternoon, Winslow's line up was Burns, 2b; Fisher, If; Cook, ss; Lawhead, 3b; Hall, c; Haynes, 1b; Clark, If; Hanley, of; Hitchcock, p.

 Kingman started strong, getting two tallies in the first. But Winslow started a good deal stronger, piling up seven runs before Manager Dudley pulled McGowan and sent Miller in, after which Winslow stayed put, Kingman made desperate attempt to pull out of the hole, but couldn't make the rifle, though they did even up the score somewhat by getting a run in the third, one in the sixth and one in the ninth, the final result being, Winslow, 2 Kingman 5.
