VOL. III., No. 17 COLORED VOTERS PLEDGE THEMSELVES TO SUPPORT G. O. P. (By Associated Negro Press) SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, July 21.—Organization of the Colored Progressive Republican club was effected recently at a meeting in the Trinity A. M. E. church. The members decided to support the Republican ticket in its entirety and to participate actively in the political campaign. ORATORY OF TRUTH ON NEGRO RIGHTS WINS COURT CASE ORATORY OF TRUTH ON NEGRO RIGHTS WINS COURT CASE (Special to The Tribune) OAKLAND, Cal., July 21—Attorney Samuel M. Shortridge, candidate for United States senator from this state, made a remarkable impassioned plea for Negroes' rights in the Mash case here recently and won. Attorney Shortridge said: "Now, your honors, shall ineradicable, though hidden, prejudice forever pursue and crush this unfortunate man? I scarcely need to add that he is a Negro. I cannot forget—and may God paralyze my tongue if I ever do forget—that the first blood shed for my country was shed by a Negro; that in every war of this republic Negroes have fought and died that your country and mine might live; and, moreover, I shall never forget that they fought and died for the country that enslaved them! I shall never forget their struggles, their sorrows, and that even to this day they are the victims of prejudice and passion and all sorts of uncharitableness. I shall never forget that it was the sword of Grant that broke their chains, the hand of Lincoln that lifted them up into freedom and manhood. There are other and personal reasons why I feel so deeply which it may not be proper for me to state. Let us not forget that a tenth of our population in America is made up of that race. Let us not forget that these two races must live—in harmony, I trust—on the same soil. Let us bear in mind that it is not only just, but wise, to open the avenues of progress to them—admit them to schools, colleges, and assist them in their uneven battle of life. They have a hard struggle and so hard, barred from professions, often denied fundamental rights, shut out from many of the legitimate fields of mechanical toil. ```markdown ``` "The petitioner is beloved by his people; he is a champion of his people, an inspiration to his people. Restore him to the rolls. Give him a chance. Turn him not away homeless. "This is an obscure case, yet a very obscure case. So was the Freeman case obscure; but I remember William Henry Seward and his defense of that poor colored man, and if, when I come to die, it can be said of me, as Seward trusted it could be said of him, that he was faithful until death, I shall think my life not spent in vain. It is for the poor and lowly that I am here this day appealing—appealing not to your hearts alone, but to your great judicial minds—and I trust my appeal will not be in vain." MESA By Alphonse Rojas By Alphonso Robinson Rev. F. E. Walker of Bakersfield, Cal., preached Sunday to the congregation of Mt. Calvary Bapist church. We were glad to have in our midst this distinguished divine and trust he will visit us often. He has many friends in the Gem City and was kept busy renewing old acquaintances. Mrs. Dila Robison who the past month has been employed at the South Side hospital, returned to town last week and has taken rooms at the home of Mrs. Ed Turner on West Main street. The colored population of Mesa is increasing rapidly and soon we shall have several hundred of our people as residents. Mesa welcomes all good citizens of whatever nationality. Mr. and Mrs. John Lee are the proud parents of a bouncing baby boy, born last week. Mother and son doing fine. Mr. and Mrs. Ed Carter, Mrs. Smith and sons motored to Mesa Sunday. NORTHERN BEMOCRATS MAKE A STRONG BID FOR COLORED VOTE (Special to the Tribune) COLUMBUS, Ohio, July 21—Inasmuch as Ohio seems to have a corper on wisdom as well as statesmanship, the rest of the provincial populace is simply marking time and waiting for the eminent Ohioans to decide really whether the soup should be "et" with a spoon or a fork, or whether the coffee should be served with or without cream or sugar. The Democratic organizations of northern states have definitely decided to make a bid for the vote of Colored citizens. Their plan of campaign will be based upon the age-old Democratic theory of "states rights," and they will claim that the Democrats of northern states should not be held responsible for the deeds of the South. They will say, "Look about you; haven't we treated you all right up here?" and then they will tell of such local recognition as has been given, and they will point to the testimony of several of Gov. Cox's Dayton neighbors that he "is a pretty fine citizen." Harding and Coolidge clubs have already been organized in a number of communities. (By Mrs. Dora Rose) Mrs. E. M. Hollowell of Phoenix arrived in Prescott last Sunday and spent two days visiting relatives and friends. She left Monday with her mother, Mrs. Richardson, for Tacoma, Wash. Word received this week from Needles, Cal., informs us of the marriage in that city of Mrs. Ella Hall and Mr. Rex Ramsey. They will make their home in Fresno, Cal. Daughters of Pride of Arizona Tabernacle, No. 10, met Monday evening at their hall on South Montezuma avenue, and held an interesting meeting. Mr. Wilson left this week for Flagstaff, Ariz. Mt. Olive Baptist church was favored last week with visits from two distinguished ministers. Rev. William Young, president of the Paradise Baptist convention and pastor of St. John's Baptist church at Globe, and the Rev. D. R. Keller of California. Rev. S. E. Newell, pastor of the local Baptist church, would not permit the visiting ministers to remain idle, so on Sunday morning Dr. Keller delivered an able sermon to the members, and in the evening Rev. Young spoke out of the fullness of his heart. Both of the gentlemen were at their best, and we can say, as of old: "Did not our hearts burn within us while they talked with us by the way"? Rev. Young left Friday for Flagstaff and points north, while Dr. Keller remained and preached for us during the week. His services were highly appreciated by all and Mrs. George Washington of Albuquerque, N. M., was received into the church on Christian experience one night during the week. Sunday, July 18, the pastor, Rev. Newell, occupied the pulpit at the church and delivered two able sermons. The attendance was good. The pastor spoke from the subject, "The Church an Institution of Learning and Christ the Teacher." Appropriate selections were rendered by the Mozart choir and at the close of the services three people were received into the church. Mrs. Lynn Carter, Mrs. Jessie James, Phil Green and others from Phoenix attended the Republican meeting here last week. Mrs. John Perkins and four children from Ardmore, Okla., arrived in Prescott last week and are staying at the home of Mr. and Mrs. John Suddoth. They will remain all summer. Miss Tillie Clay, a former resident of Prescott, but now a resident of Kingman, Ariz., is a visitor in the city. She is staying at the home of Mrs. John Suddoth. Prior to her residence in Kingman Mrs. Clay was a resident of Prescott for thirty years. Mrs. Mary E. Scott of Phoenix is among the visitors from Phoenix. Mrs. Wm. Ross of Flagstaff was a visitor in the city last week. (By Reginald Jackson) (By Reginald Jackson) Members of the Willing Workers' club met last week with Mrs. Billingslea and enjoyed a pleasant social hour. ARIZONA'S LEADING NEWSPAPER PHOENIX, ARIZONA, SATURDAY, JULY 24, 1920 ROSENWALD OFFERS $25,000 TO ANY CITY FOR Y. M. C. A. HOME (By Associated Negro Press) CHICAGO, July 21.—Julius Rosenwald has made possible the erection of thirteen Y. M. C. A. buildings during the last ten years by contributions amounting to $350,000 made through the Chicago Y. M. C. A. He has made a new offer to extend over a period of two years, whereby he will contribute $25,000 toward the cost of a building in any city in America, whose citizens, white or black, will match it with a fund of $125,000. He makes but two stipulations. The building must include separate quarters for men and boys, a standard gymnasium, a swimming pool, class and club rooms, a well managed restaurant and dormitory rooms. But unless L. Wilbur Messer, the general secretary of the local Y. M. C. A., and William J. Parker, the business manager, feel sure that the subscription list is bona fide, and the people, who are petitioning for aid are capable of managing the building which they will own and financing and administering the work of the local organization, Mr. Rosenwald will withhold his offer. "Unexpected conditions have sprung up having a bearing upon the Negro race," said Mr. Rosenwald. "The influx of the blacks to the north has developed race relations of increasing strain. To offset this there is an increased interest in the welfare of the Negroes. "I think that canvassing campaigns to provide these institutions will bring white and colored people together in wholesome co-operation. There are already requests for aid from eleven cities, and the record of the thirteen buildings already erected through our original plan is so satisfactory that I feel they will be successful permanently. "Therefore I am ready to help. Any city in America which will spend $125,000 on a building or equipment for the use of Negro men and boys need only make application, guarantee the fitness of its management, and promise to complete the construction within six months, and the local Y. M. C. A. will issue the $25,000." GLOBE--MIAMI (By Miss Modesta Young) Mr. James Lott has decided not to lease the hotel in San Diego, with 120 rooms, but will continue in the position as head porter at the Old Dominion department store. Mr. Alonzo Robinson left last week for Tucson, where he will enter a sanitarium. Mr. and Mrs. Laguiay are recent arrivals and have decided to locate permanently. St. John Baptist Sunday school is progressing nicely. Mrs. Leana McLock of Fort Worth, Texas, sister of Mr. W. E. Coleman, returned last week to her home in Texas after a brief visit with relatives. She took with her Miss Nancy Patterson, a nfcee, who has been suffering with a severe cold contracted in Fort Worth, when the little miss got her feet wet while out in a canoe. Messrs. W. E. and Henry B. Coleman desire to thank all who showed kindness to their sister during her illness. Golden Billow Lodge, F. and A. Mason, have shown themselves ready to help any wothy brother who comes to this city. We have a capable, efficient man in the east, one who is trying to prove himself worthy of the name master, and we invite all visiting brethren to attend our meetings. Mr. W. E. Coleman has been on the sick list the past few days but is im-proving. Mrs. S. White and son are new arrivals in the city. Mrs. Arthur Davis is Ionvalescing from her rent indisposition. One hundred and thirty-four dollars was taker in at the chicken dinner given last week at the Baptist church. Rev. William Young of Globe was a Flagstaff visitor last week. Mrs. Lyons spent Thursday in Riordan, Arizona. Mrs. Tullwright left last Thursday for a visit at the Grand Canyon. Mrs. Mullen, Mr. Yeager, Mrs. McCool were visitors from Winslow. SPLINTER, NOT PLANK REPUBLICAN GIFT TO COLORED AMERICANS (By Associated Negro Press) CHICAGO, July 21.—In the field of publicity, the Republican national committee, it looks as though Phil H. Brown, one of the pioneer newspaper men of the country, will be in charge of things. Mr. Brown is not only a newspaper man of experience, but he is a clever writer and worthy of the "doctor's degree" in political science. Every since 1896, in one capacity or another, he has been connected with the practical work of helping to elect presidents. During the last campaign Mr. Brown was in charge of the Bureau of Publicity for the colored newspapers throughout the country, and he also functioned in the speakers' and organization departments. Mr. Brown is a resident of Hopkinsville, Ky., and is also known as one of the confidential advisers of A. T. Hert, the wealthy national committeeman of the "Blue Grass" state. Col. Henry Lincoln Johnson has been very busy holding conferences, and joining in the general reception of visitors who are coming into the national headquarters from every section of the country. Among those who have been at the headquarters during the week are: Col. Roscoe Conkling Simmons, who is just recovering from a slight operation on the nose, performed by Dr. Reginald Smith. Col. Simmons found it necessary to cancel several of his speaking engagements until after his recovery. There were likewise among the callers William H. Lewis of Boston, Mass., former assistant attorney general; Perry W. Howard, of Jackson, Miss., who was prevented from seating his delegation for Leonard Wood; Gilchrist Stewart, called by Col. Johnson "the Little Corporal," whose permanent business address is New York city; William Warley, editor of the Louisville News; A. B. Josey, editor of the Wisconsin Weekly Blade; Robert S. Abbott, editor of the Chicago Defender; Major Robert R. Jackson, alderman of the Second ward, Chicago; Jake Tipper, editor of the Chicago Enterprise, and many others. If it may seem that there is a preponderance of editors in the calling list, it must be remembered that this is an "editor's year." With both parties having nominated editors for president, this is the year that the newspaper men are in the political game "up to their eyes." If the next president in working out his problems of lowering the high cost of living, can likewise do his bit toward lowering the high cost of print paper, the newspaper men of the country will be willing to erect a monument to his name while he is still in office. Indications point to a most spectacular campaign. The public will have plenty of political reading, and, already, Senator Harding, true to the knowledge of "what the people want" in the newspaper line, has cut his address down to about three columns. Miss Hallie Q. Brown, of Wilberforce, Ohio, and therefore the right to speak with authority, has added new fame to her international reputation by her address in the convention of the National Federation of Colored Women's Clubs, held in Tuskegee Institute. Miss Brown declared that while the "Republican party was supposed to give us a plank, it develops that they only gave us a splinter." Her remark is being commented on quite generally. Mrs. Sofronia Jordan of 212½ East Buchanan street has as a guest a sister from Texas, who will spend several weeks in the city. Mrs. Burnell of Ray, Ariz., is spending the summer with Mrs. Cassie Fuller. Mrs. Simpson of Winslow spent the Fourth in Flagstaff. William Austin returned last week from Oakland and left Thursday with Mr. Albert Watts for San Diego, Cal. Mrs. Pearl Ware has been on the sick list. Mrs. M. Taylor of Blythe, Cal., is visiting in the city. The Willing Workers club met last Thursday with Mrs. Garrison, and the next meeting will be with Mrs. W. L. Horne. Sunday, Mr. and Mrs. T. W. Garrison were dinner guests of Mr. and Mrs. Jackson. MEMBERS OF MOB ARE GIVEN STIFF SENTENCE BY SOUTHERN JURIST (By Associated Negro Press) BIRMINGHAM, Ala., July 21.—William H. Alexander, Earl Davis and Oscar V. Hunt, three alleged members of the mob of a few days ago, are preparing to fight their cases in the circuit court, having lost in police court, when Recorder Henry J. Martin gave Alexander and Davis the limit of the law in police court, $100 and 180 days, and fined Hunt $50. All three appealed their cases and gave bond. Ernest Cawthorn and Walter Honeycutt also were found guilty in lesser degrees and fined $25 each. The case against L. M. Waggoner was nolle pressed, Cawthorn and Honeycutt paid their fines. Recorder Martin, in announcing his decision, said that it was very evident that Alexander had acted unlawfully in assuming in any sense to be leader or spokesman of the crowd that visited the hotels demanding the release of bellboys, and that it was a time of great danger when citizens desiring to allay the trouble should have offered their services to the police. Earl Davis, according to the court, was the right-hand man of Alexander, and both were worthy of the limit of the law. Ephraim Hardy, who was the object of the mob's anger when he is said to have brushed against a white woman on Second avenue, is recovering slowly at the Hillman hospital. Before officers could get him away from the mob, he was shot through the body and received a number of knife wounds in addition to being trampled upon. For a time Hardy's life was despaired of. A. W. Smith, who was stabbed by Hardy as the latter was trying to escape, has recovered, as also have a number of other persons who sustained slight injuries. (By Archie Lewis) Ladies and Gentlemen: I take great pleasure in introducing to you Mr. Chester Maryland, formerly of Phoenix, but now a resident of the busiest mining town in Arizona. He will have charge of the Ray column in the Tribune and will give the readers of this paper "news as is news." Mr. Maryland is a young man of whom any community might well be proud. He has a pleasing personality and a winning smile. His only weakness is for real old-fashioned "ginger bread;" outside of that, he is all right. We wish him well. Sunday was quarterly meeting day at the People's A. M. E. Zion church, and the presiding elder, Rev. E. H. Clark, held forth. Dr. Clark delivered an able sermon and at the close of the conference was pleasantly surprised at the fine reports from the various departments of the church. In spite of the fact that the church was organized only four months ago, and several of its staunchest members have departed for other fields, the sum of $518.70 has been raised and the work is progressing, thanks to the leadership and untiring efforts of the pastor, Rev. W. J. Conquest. The missionary ladies of the A. M. E. Zion church gave an entertainment Saturday night and realized a neat little sum for this worthy cause. The infant son of Mr. and Mrs. Chester Maryland has been quite ill with a cold but is doing fine at present. W. Vann boxed last Saturday night at the Ray Con. club smoker. He has a wicked left hook like the mighty Rufus and looks like a comer. Wm. P. Crump and son, Thomas, returned this week from Phoenix, whither they had been visiting the family. Rev. J. Henry Clark of Yuma, grand master of Arizona 'Masons, was a visitor in camp Sunday and occupied the pulpit at the A. M. E. Zion church. "Old Pete" is no more. With so many preachers in camp last week, Lonnie Harris' prize rooster went "west" very suddenly by the axe route. The last we saw of his earthly remains was some fine chicken salad. Did it look good? It didn't look bad. Mr. and Mrs. Chester Maryland were dinner guests last Sunday of Mr. and Mrs. Mose Davis. Abe Bueford has given his house a fine coat of orange paint. Mr. J. J. McDonald was on the sick list last week. Mrs. Benjamin Parker of Tempe is visiting her daughter. Mrs. Frank State Librarian JACK JOHNSON SURRENDERS HIMSELF TO U. S. OFFICERS SAN DIEGO, Cal., July 21—Jack Johnson, former heavyweight champion, crossed the international boundary line from Mexico near here today and was arrested by a deputy United States marshal. Johnson is under sentence in Chicago for violation of the Mann act. Johnson, who has been residing in Tia Juana, Mexico, for several months, rode in an automobile to the Mexican side of the boundary. He shook hands with several Mexican officials, walked to the American customs house, presented his passports and stepped across the line. Deputy United States Marshal George Cooley and Dave Gershon, special agent of the department of justice, were waiting for the pugilist and placed him under arrest as he entered the United States. BLACK BOY WINNER SCHOLARSHIP HONORS AT UNIVERSITY OF PA BLACK BOY WINNER SCHOLARSHIP HONORS AT UNIVERSITY OF PA (Special To The Tribune) PHILADELPHIA, Pa., July 21—Amidst the halo of glory surrounding the one hundred and sixty-fourth annual commencement of the University of Pennsylvania last Wednesday, the outstanding and most glorious feature of it all was the fact that Harry Spencer Blackiston, a colored boy, was proclaimed the greatest of all scholars who have ever graduated from that institution since its foundation. On Blackiston was conferred the highest literary degree of the University, that of Doctor of Philosophy, and with it goes the honor of being the youngest man upon whom this honor has ever been conferred since the opening of that institution, Blackiston having just passed out of his 22nd year. Has No Equal as Winner of Scholarships and Degrees Harry S. Blackiston, after graduating from the Central High school in February, 1913, matriculated in the course of arts and science at the University of Pennsylvania in the following September, at the age of sixteen years. At that time he became the recipient of the William P. Henney scholarship, 1913-17; and the Mayor's scholarship, 1913-17. As an under-graduate, he specialized in German and Latin. During the course of the academic year, 1916-17, he was awarded the George Schleicher prize for German conversation by virtue of which he received a silver medal along with $15 in gold; and he was also given honorable mention in a prose Latin essay contest. In June, 1917, the degree of Bachelor of Arts was conferred upon him. About the same time he received a university scholarship in German for the ensuing academic year, 1917-18. In September, 1918, he was enrolled in the graduate school at the aforementioned institution, delving intensively into the study of German and Latin, and receiving the degree of Master of Arts in June of the following year. At this time he won a Harrison scholarship in German, together with an additional stipend of $100. He continued his research work for the next two eyars at the same institution, winning a university scholarship in the year 1919; and now at the age of only twenty-three years he becomes the recipient of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy thereby being the youngest in the history of the university to receive such a degree. Blackiston is the son of Mr. and Mrs. James H. Blackiston of 1830 Fitzwater street. BAPTISTS COMPLETE MAGNIFICENT NEW STRUCTURE (By Associated Negro Press) (By Associated Negro Press) ASHEVILLE, N. C., July 21.—After sixteen months of almost continuous labor, the new Mt. Zion Baptist church is completed in practically every detail. The building is located at Eagle and South Spruce streets. Measuring 100 by 64 feet, the big brick structure stands as the finest Negro church in the entire state, if not in all the South, constructed and equipped for a sum said to be in the neighborhood of $70,000. In every feature the building, including basement, main auditorium and balcony, represents the modern thought in church construction. 5 Cents a Copy; $2.50 a Year EDITOR R. R. WRIGHT GIVEN DEGREE LL. D. AT WILBERFORCI (By Associated Negro Press) PHILADELPHIA, Pa., July 21—Dr Richard R. Wright, Jr., editor of the Christian Recorder, of Philadelphia was given the degree LL. D. at the commencement of Wilberforce University, Xenia, Ohio, June 30. He was also given an appointment to go abroad, being selected as one of seven ministers to attend the Ecuimenical Conference of Methodism to be held in Edinborough, Scotland, in September, 1921. GENERAL EXODUS OF BLACK FROM THE SOUTH CONTINUES GENERAL EXODUS OF BLACK FROM THE SOUTH CONTINUES (By Associated Negro Press) (By Associated Negro Press) CHICAGO, July 21.—There is an other mighty exodus of the Negro on from the South. The chief cause this time is not economic, although practically all who come are able to get work, but the movement is due to an epidemic of intimidation and lynching. Since the first of July there has been an astounding epidemic of murder and lynching in several sections of the South. The Associated Negro Press is carefully investigating the conditions from every angle. According to the Memphis Times, colored people are leaving the South at the rate of 100 a day. This is frankly very conservative. A leading professional man from Mississippi, who has just reached Chicago, stated that the people are leaving at the rate of more than 1,500 a day. The newspapers of the country daily and otherwise, had not ceased commenting editorially on the semi annual report of Dr. Robert R. Motor of Tuskegee Institute, as gathered by Prof. Monroe N. Work of the research department, on lynchings for 1920—where an appreciable decrease is shown—when the trouble started. James Spencer, a postal clerk Meridian, Miss., who had an altercation with a white traveling postal clerk, was taken from the officers and "quietly" lynched. He leaves a wife and two children. Says the Meridian Star of July 6: "The killing of the Negro was the quietest and most orderly lynching that ever took place in this section. Not an inkling of any intention to deal out summary vengeance had been allowed to become known and the identity of the men who did the work is a profound mystery which probably will never be solved." While the whites are remaining "mystified," thousands of people, many of them with large property holdings, the accumulation of a life-time, are leaving Mississippi. A white policeman shot and killed two Negro firemen in Elberton, Ga., July 1; Ed Roach was "shot to death by a posse of farmers near Roxboro Va.", July 6; Irving and Herman Arthur were mobbed and burned at the stake in Paris, Texas, July 6, and thus goes the great American pastime of human slaughter. DEAN KELLY MILLER OF HOWARD COLLEGE WILL LECTURE HERE Dean Kelly Miller of Howard University, Washington, D. C., will arrive in Phoenix Sunday, August 15th, and on the following Monday evening, August 16, will lecture at the High school auditorium. He has selected for his subject "The New Negro of the New Day." Prof. Miller is one of the truly great orators of the day and large crowds are turning out to hear him wherever he speaks. He is on an 8,000-mile lecture tour and through the efforts of the Phoenix Protective League was induced to make a stop here. It is said that Prof. Miller ranks high as an educator as well as a lecturer and writer. He is the author of several books that are widely read, among them being the history of the Negro soldiers in the late war. Another of his books that has received a wide circulation is "Disgrace of Democracy." In this book he takes President Wilson to task and asks him a few questions that are unanswerable. Prof. Miller possesses a master mind and is a logical, forceful speaker. Everybody in Phoenix and the valley should hear him.

Official Receipts Furnished All Workers PAGE FOUR THE BIGGEST CARD OF THE SEASON IS FRIDAY'S BOUT Two of America's greatest 185 pound grapplers will be seen in action at Tally's open-air arena Friday night, when Thomas Grant of Seattle meets Pete Sauer, local favorite, in a finish match, catch-as-catch-can style. Incidentally, the matching of these two headliners involves the biggest outlay ever guaranteed for a wrestling bout in this city. Grant's recent performance against Joe Stecher, world's heavyweight title holder, stamps him as one of the greatest men of his poundage that ever graced a ring. Scaling in at 184 pounds for the champion, he held the Nebraska wonder to even terms for an hour, although outweighed thirty pounds. After an hour of what ringside critics declare was the fastest work ever seen on a mat in the central west, Stecher's greater weight began to manifest itself. He secured the first fall in one hour and four minutes and the second in thirteen minutes.

Hay Ride a Success The hay ride to Mesa conducted by members of the A. M. E. church proved entirely successful. Visitors From Tempe Mrs. Mayme Henley and Mrs. Maggie Thomas of Tempe were Sunday visitors in Phoenix. Phoenix people will be given an opportunity to hear Madam M. Hooks of Denever, Colo., in a recital Friday night, July 30, at the C. M. E. church, corner Seventh and Jefferson streets. Mrs. Hooks is an elocutionist of note and lovers of the best in the elocutionary art cannot afford to miss this performance. ever, said that only the weight advantage carried the champion to victory. For the first thirty minutes Grant employed jiu-jitsu tactics against the Netraska Wonder and literally tied him into knots with his speed and cleverness. He had all the better of the going in the first half-hour, they wrote in their reviews of the match, and at the end of the first hour was on even terms with the Dodge City phenom. All this in view of the fact that Stecher is considered the master head spinning artist of the twentieth century. Grant, it seems, had perfected a defense against Stecher's deadly hold, the body scissors, with a result that every time he applied it during the first hour, he found himself in trouble. In consequence, the champion was obliged to resort to other tactics. Take away Stecher's body scissors, and he's hardly more than an ordinary performer. No wrestler who has appeared in Phoenix to date comes so highly recommended and with such a splendid record as Grant. He has met practically every good man in the game today and during the past few months has been obliged to go out of his class to secure matches owing to the dearth cf material in the 185-pound class. Grant has never faltered, however, when asked to meet such man as Caddock, Stecher and Lewis, although outweighed from thirty to sixty pounds. Sauer Suffers Little in Comparison Sauer's ability is well known to local devotees of the sport. Nick Daviscount, considered one of the ten best heavyweights in the game, paid a remarkable tribute to the art of the local favorite after their second meeting here two weeks ago. "Phoenix fans do not fully appreciate the ability of Sauer," Daviscourt said. "He's one of the best youngsters in the game today and, with careful handling, should develop into a world's champion with the addition of more weight and experience." His match with Grant, Pete realizes, will be a real test as to his ability. Grant is unquestionably the best 185-pounder Sauer has ever met and a victory Friday night will do more to put Pete to the front than anything he has accomplished heretofore. For this reason Pete is working like a Trojan to get in tipton shape. "It may be a long, hard match, where condition will be an all-important factor, and I'm not going to take any chances on weakening," Sauer said last evening. "The longer the match goes, the better my chances for victory, for slimatic conditions here, together with the heat, will work to the disadvantage of my opponent."

Dr. Green preached for the members of this congregation a few weeks ago and so favorably impressed were they with him that a call was immediately issued to him. Rev. Green has been pastor of the Baptist church at Albuquerque for the past year, coming to that church from Missouri, where he had served many years as a successful pastor. He will arrive in Phoenix soon and take charge of the work here. Mrs. Hackett to Coast Among the outgoing passengers last week was Mrs. W. C. Hackett, wife of Dr. W. C.

Among the most important places will be mentioned the old Mission church which is very old, nevertheless, services are held in it every Sunday. The walls are hung with most beautiful works of art. Many old relics were seen by us, furniture more than a hundred years old. Many of our party bought the history of this old mission and other souvenirs. Our next stop was at the oldest grape vine in the world. It is 145 years old, planted in 1775. It covers one thousand square feet and it is fresh and green, ladened with fruit. We had the pleasure of drinking juice prepared from the fruit of this very old vine. We then passed through southern Pasadena, where we saw many beautiful flowers and other things of interest. Our next stop was at an ostrich farm; we saw them feed the ostriches and were told just how they are cared for. Saw baby ostrich just hatched, and they resemble young turkeys, only much larger. We were told how often the birds are plucked and just how many feathers are taken each time. We also visited the house We left Los Angeles at 1:30 p. m. Saturday for San Pedro. There we viewed the shipyards, saw one large ship come into port; saw them unload one, and saw one leave port. Our lunch at this place consisted of sandwich and soda water.
