 Johnson received the same sentence as his colleagues, but Judge Ross said in view of Johnson's i'll health he would urge pardon for him.

PRICES TRIAL BEGINS.
A Jury Likely to be Obtained
 With Difficulty.
The First Venire Exhausted and a Second of Fifty Members Ordered
 for Today.

It looks as if jury in the Price mur.
 der case would be obtained with great
 difficulty.
 The venire of thirty-six was exhaust l ed yesterday or so nearly exhausted that another special venire of fifty re-
 turnable today was ordered. Four members of the first were excused without examination and out of the remaining thirty-two only seven were "passed for cause" Several challenges by the defense on statutory grounds were overruled so that perhaps when the peremptory challenges are exhausted not one of the seven may finally sit. The gentlemen who were passed are D. A. Spragg, R. G. Goodwin, ". I. Horner, s. S. Green. s. Y. Barkley, J. A. Marshall and w. L. Osborn.
 An alliterative coincidence is noted in the case of the four members of the venire who were excused without ex- animation.
 All their names begin with "P., :"
 Pratt, Pinney, Peters and. Pemberton. Persons with disposition to run the coincidence into the ground might note further that the name of the defendant
 begins with "P."
 Contrary to expectation, no attempt was made by the defense to secure a continuance or any other form of delay. There were perhaps no grounds for ask ing it, but it IS so common in such grave 1 cases to unreasonably try to gain time
 that the spectators naturally expected the attemptin this case. The prisoner appeared in court as cool and impassiye es he has been ever since he was disarmed that morning be fired the last shot at Shurbert as he lay sprawling and struggling in the street.

TEWKSBURY'S CASE.
The Trial to be Reset in Pima
 County.

The disposition of the Tewkebury case has become problem. Under mis- apprehension that change of venue was being granted, the prisoner was sent back to Phenix last spring, after the trial of hls case at Tucson. It was afterward discovered that though Tewksbury had been transferred his case had not been and could not be without his application, or at any rate without his consent.
 It has become evident that one of two things must transpire. Either Tewks- bury and his case must be gotten to- gether, or else the defendant must die in the county jail. If the case can't be brought to Tewksbury, Tewksbury will have to be sent to his case. The board of supervisors has therefore written to District Attorney Hereford, of Pima county to cause the case. to be set for trial at the next term of court.

RAIN MAKES THEM REST.
Horse Trainers and Skeleton Carts
 Await Dry Weather.

For day or two, until the stormy
 weather is over, there must be let up in the work of training and exercising the fast colts which are entered for the races for the three days to come alter Christmas. Every body has noticed the unusual number of sleek, shining, clean limbed horses hitched to the light carts which have for some days past been a feature of the streets and drives around town. These are being gotten in con- dition for the first meet of the Blood Horse Association. It is safe to say that never have so many thoroughbred
 animals been entered for race meet in this part of the country. There has been an awakening of enthusiasm and an arousing of interest in this meet, the ike of which never was seen before.

Almost every horseman of the valley has some favorite colt entered.
 The prizes are liberal and the track will be in the best possible condition.
 A feature of the races will be this year that simple ticket will be good for transportation to and from the grounds as we'll as admission.

of 1921 week, our farmer friend mar
yelled and wondered if he was really get
ting behind the procession.
Another farmer who hauled some OF
our army offered one of our faithful
soldiers $50 month, including board
and washing, to stop and work for the
present summer. Our gallant and loyal
soldier refused the offer and remains
with us.
We have been glad to notice on our
entire march that we have the sympathy
of laboring men generally. The trades
unions have been passing resolutions IN
our favor While these large labor or
CARNATIONS endorse us and stand by us,
it can readily be seen that criticism
from the press and every BODY Is shut on.
We have attached ourselves to that
large body of respectable workingmen
and women, SO that no one can criticlse
us without criticising them. This is
part of our general policy. We mean
to get into good society SO that those
who desire to call us.tramps will heslt-
tate to do so, because lnferentlally tney
thereby class among us the honest WORK
ingmen who are helping to support US
in idleness.
Our present attitude, it will be seen,
especially shuts the mouths OF polltl-
clans who want the votes of the work
ingmen. They must make speeches to us
because of the society we are In. we
have made it so that the militia dare
not be called out. The average Ameil-
can revolts at the bayonet. All these
plans did not dawn upon US at the start
some of them have grown upon US al
most unawares.
One thing we regret to learn from our
advance agents, and that is that the
contributions of money are falling. OH.
The people are willing to give us plenty
to eat, but they seem little bit shy on
the money question. We hope your
people will shell out little more llber-
ally. What we need is cash. Gen. Kelly
feels the lightness of the hat when it
comes back. The people seem to think
so much of their silver that they have
not the desire to put it in circulation
which we would like TO see. We nave
been calculating on getting $4,000 cash
from the laboring men of Des MONIES.
Gen. Kelly could handle that amount
without becoming particularly round
shouldered.
If we are compelled to walk to Wash
ington it will take US about seventy days
of steady marching, and if we make any
stops for rest, the time will be extended
to 100 days. This is long time to wait,
and would be great disappointment to
our soldiers. A dair Qowa) Letter to Les

NEW QUESTION.
Dover Man Sued for the Support OF His
Child Who Was in the Custody of a Di-
vorced Mother.

Chief Justice Peters had singular
case at Wiscasset at this term of court
that involves question that has never
been decided in this State, and the mem
bers of the legal fraternity are watching
it with interest. In 1880 Abbie Greene,
then OF Rockand was divorced from
her husband, Henry S.Greene, upon libel
of the wife, and she was given the custo-
dy of the child, Estella M. Greene, then
two years of age. In 1884, Mrs. Greene
remarked, this time to one Elias G.
Hall of Waldoboro. Mr.. Hall took the
little girl into his family. then six years
of age. and has supported her since
1884, boarding, clothing and schooling
her. Mr.. Greene removed to Dover
about the same time, remarked and
owns considerable real estate in that
town, being carpenter and builder and
real estate dealer. Mr.. Greene and Mr..
Hall never saw each other until they
met in court Wednesday.
In September last Mr.. Greene was sur
prised by an officer who served upon him
a writ in favor of Mr.. Hall, upon which
Greene's property was attached to the
amount of $4,000 for the board and CLOTH
ing and schooling OF his minor child Es-
tella. The case came On trial on We'd
nesday last at Wiscasset. Messrs. Pierce
& Hall of Rockland appearing for plain
tiff, and J.B. Peaks, ESQ.,. OF Dover for
the defendant. The defence did not deny
the support, as declared in the writ, but
put in the record of the court granting
The divorce, and commended that the
custody of the child having been taken
from the faher and given to the mother,
relieved the father from his obligation to
support the child, and threw that obliga-
tion upon the mother, and the defend
ants counsel asked the court to order a
verdict for the defendant. The matter
was deliberately argued by counsel for
the plaintiff and defendant, creating con-
siderable mirth in the court room, in
which the chief justice participated.
The court thought the question of too
much Importance for ruling by one JUS
tice, and suggested that the whole testi-
mony be reported to the law court,
which was done, to be argued in Port
land in July next.
