Thev did not avail themselves of the oppor- tnnity offered to make a statement which the Justice explained the law permitted. Guadalupe, the elder of the accused, previous to his arraign- ment, was most profuse in his version of the affair, but unfortunately for him. self, his various "talks" were, in many particulars, contradictory. He, how ever, manifested desire to culpate Bak-el-cle who was not of his kth or kin, but of his band, and throughout stoutly maintained his belief that one person. alone, was guilty of the crime He based his opinion "because the scouts told him SO. The fact that three persons, and probably fourth, had hand in the murder, is beyond controversy. That there were three, signs to the discerning eye attest, and as easily understood as the letters of the alphabet.

 little hope of Il resumption of work, fer the reason that it lies a few miles with

Phin Clanton, who was. about year ago, pardoned out of the Territorial prison, where he was. sent from Apache county for cattle stealing, Is under ar- rest at Clifton. Charge, handling cat He not his own. Clanton says he is innocent. --Stockman
 The Clantons during the infantile days of Globe, were residents here. They were then, although not the possessors of polyglot family bible, not regarded as bad, but occasionally lively. The old man was fond of tea, and prevailed on Bill Reed, also q pioneer, to make him some, and being of generous disposition, made it strong, using half pound on that oc- casion and would have used twice the nu1asber of ounces had it been within reach.
 The Clantons lived in n dug-out. in the side of the hill on Pine street. The roof of the mansion was on level with the top of the hill and wien they left it they neglected to cover the hole which gave egress to smoke. As a con- sequence, 1t became a man trap and caught Mike Whalen, who being in his cups or, in common parlance, drunk, imagined he had fallen into mining shaft. Not liking the situation, Mike made an outcry for help, and some of the boys, who were also on lark, heard him, procured rope and drew him up through the chimney to where be could again view the blinking stars. Mike, although not bruised, was very much discolored but happily he was restored to citizenship through the wise provision of the XVth amendment to the U. $. constitution, which rendered ebon men equals of the whites.
