PINNET & ROBINSON
17 South Center
.Mesa and Miami ought to be pretty
evenly matched, now that Paul Julius
Longowski has another battery. In
fact unless the Miami team hits a lot
better than they did against Globe
in the last few weeks, the hosts
stand ;i chance to take them into
camp.
Bnie "Williams and C. AYesteott
left last evening for Miami in the
Mesa ball team's cars, with the in
tention of bringing back the best
ball-players the mine town can scare
up. In view of the. fact that the
mine town has been scouting the
coast thesjg past weeks, it looks like
an honest to John team.
Longowski will send Senner, the
Maydenite, and Mitchell, his team
mate, to do battery duty against Mi
:mi today. McGownn. the popular
Mesa hurler, will officiate Sunday,
so 'tis said. And Mitchell with him.
for Poor Ole Hode Morris is in with
a broken collar bone. But this will
noi prevent Dode from being an
umpire. In fact it will aid him, in
asmuch as nobody with even a fan's
sh.-ed of humanity, will bounce bot
tles and chunks of grandstand off the
bean of a cripple.
Mesa Declares Holiday
Mesa, has made it a holiday. No
body works except the perspiring pop'
kids and the players and the ticket
taktrs. Everybody has heard that it
will be some battle, and everybody is
going to be there to take it in.
This is the first time a Miami team
ever played in the Salt PJver valley,
and the ' comparison of baseball
strength for which the sport wviters
have been hollering is about to be
made.
The park has been fixed up for the
series, and auto bus lines established.

Red McGhee says:
You hear guys say the outfield's soft.
Well, they got joints loose in their loft
there's vacant space up there. There
ain't no job on any nine that's soft or
cinch y, I opine. An' my opinion's fair.
At any rate there ain't no yap who'll
say the shortstop's job's a snap an' try
to make it stick. It takes a star to fill
that part. That's why my lid is off to
Art, for Fletcher does it slick.
He's been a leg'lar now four years
an' Muggs Mc-Graw would shed real
tears if Fletch should peter out. He
came to Muggs in 1910 an' stepped
right in the lineup when McGravv let
Bridwell out. He's rangy, like the
Texas steers he plac ed among couple
years before his Giant days, an' made
good from the very start. There ain't
no surer guy than Art at executin'
plays.
An' Art can wield the wagon-tongue.
You'll always find him tip among the
leailin' knights o' swat. He bats right
hand but bangs 'em bard to all the
corners of the yard. He's not slow on
the trot. His battin's steady, too you'll
find. I-ast year in that world series

Fletch kept light up in his stride at
banging' out the ol' horsehide. His

Just a year ago at 4:00 p. m. John J.

that is now occupied by him as re
ceiver of the Cnited States land office.
In the exact year, no more no less
Birdno has "worn out" two safes, and
had a third installed. Xmv, in order
to prove that it was not the immense
flock of funds, pushing the office's in

no is w illing to admit that it was only
the frequent opening and closing of the
doors that caused the two first strong
boxes to wear out.
He indignantly denied that it was
the graft charged in the petition and
letter of the Kirkland miners and "cita
zens". which caused two perfectly good
and fireproof safes to go to the bad.
The new safe was inserted through
doorless apertures yesterday just in
time to get within the first year of Mr.
Birdno's incumbency.

Officer Skidmore arrested the men
yesterday after being on their trail
since Sunday. As soon as they were
taken to the city joil, Frank I. Koma, a
Japanese employed at the Adams Ho

AN ARTIST'S WIFE
TOOK NO CHANCES
Attempting Suicide Took Precautions
Against Surviving
BERLIN, August 12. Frau von der
Heydt, the wife of the well known
artist, committed suicide a few days
ago in the Sternberg lake, near Mu
nich, under somewhat remarkable
circumstances. She was living in a
villa by the water's edge, and asked
a neighbor, a lodging house keeper,
if the latter's two daughters, aged
12 and 10 years respectively, might
accompany her for a row. Although
a, thunderstorm was gathering, she
got the two girls to row with her out
into the middle of the lake until she
was about a half mile from the
bhore.
She then went into the bows of
the boat, divested herself entirely of
clothing, knelt down to drink the
contents of a bottle (which was af
terward discovered to have held ly
sol), and having drained it to the
dvegs, jumped into the water.
Her two companions were so ter
rified by their experience that they
only got back to land with the as
sistance of some fishermen. The sui
cide's body was washed ashore later
in the dy.

and killed Mrs. Anna Watkins, his
wife, a waitress at the Alamo' cafe,
this afternoon and then fatally
wounded himself by firing two bullets
into his head. Fourteen men and j
women were in the restaurant at the
time of the shooting and witnessed
the tragedy: Mrs. Watkins was shot
through the body three limes and
dropped to the floor, dead. She had
just served Watkins' meal. A note
found on Watkins fully explained the
caus of the tiagedy. It read:
"I have been all over the western
coast looking for my wife. At last
I found her. I begged her to come
back to me, but she would not listen
to me. I don't want to live without
her. I will take her life and mine at
the same time.

Who They Were
Watkins is a son of Joe Watkins
and was associated with his father
in the ownership of a meat market
at Five Points. The family, which
comprises the mother and a brother,
resides at 10"2 West Polk street.
In reply to queries concerning the
tragedy, Mr. Watkins admitted that
his daughter-in-law had become sep
arated from her husband and had
contemplated getting a .divorce. Not
long ago Mrs. Watkins wrote to her
father-in-law consulting him about
the procedure. Young Watkins got
wind of his estranged wife's inten
tions and left a few days ago for Los
Angeles.
"He went with the intention of
straightening things up," said the
father. But even while being ques
tioned by a Republican man, Mr.
Watkins did not know the nature of
the tragedy. The only information

FARM ADVISOR SERVICE
INSIDE OF YEAR-MORSE
University Man Tells Trade Board of
Progress on Rural Service;
Directorate Meeting
A great deal of routine business
was transacted by the directors of
the board of trade in thei.- regular
meeting yesterday afternoon.
Important items were as follows:
Arthur Luhrs, E. A. Marshall and
J. M. Ormsby were made a commit
tee to cooperate with the Mer
chants and Manufacturers' in the
matter of the farmers' picnic at
Riveside next Thursday.
Prof. Morse, of the university, ad
vised the board he would meet the
committee on rural affairs shortly,
in an effort to get the farm udvisor
matter settled. He says that farm
udvisor service will be installed this
year.
No word has come from Atty. Gen.
Billiard, who is on a diplomatic mis
sion to the rations at wav in South
ern California. He is trying to get
the factions together on the route
for the next coast to Phoenix auto
mobile race.
Assistant Secretary E. M. Hancock
of the Mining Congress will be i
Phoenix shortly, and Secretary J. I-
Collbreath will come late this month. !

In a letter to the board. Gus Noll,

even, some of t the California high
ways are less attractive than those
of this state.
H. M. Fennemre, who is investi
gating freight rates on farm produce
for the board, reported in favor of a
rate bureau. In connection with his
work, he discovered the need of
urging the farmers to plant vegeta-
Ibles, and pointed out that as a re
sult of the. necessity, farmers in the
iuesa anu Chandler districts were
going in for lettuce, which will be
an important shipping crop next
season.

POSIMASTER 0E1E IS
RELEASED ON $400 BAIL
Wenden Official Released After Ar
rest on Conspiracy Charge
Counter Accusation Made.
Postmaster Vincent M. Devine of
Wenden was admitted to bail in the
amount of $)"0, and is now a com
paratively free man, after a regular
arrest on a regular conspiiacy charge.
Probably the most remarkable tangle
of events that ever mixed three ear
nest humans is that which only sep
arates those former friends, Devine,
Peter Silt and James Shaw.
Silt, a contract stage mail carrier,
on one side, claims that Shaw and
Devine are trying to force him to
relinquish his contract by handing
him large amounts of parcel post
matter. He claims that the miners
of the A lama, district have been in
duced to ship great quantities of ore.
by mail, and that this forces him to
an expense above the profit mark on
a $700 a year income.
Shaw and Devine, who formerly
had the contract and lost it on Silt's
lid, accuse Peter of having rigged up
the conspiracy charge solely in order
to get out from under the con
tract. SOLDIER SUICIDES
