The Law at Fredonia.

According to the facts in case tried at Fredonia recently they have pecu- liar ideas of law in that part of the country. L. Pratt refused to pay taxes to Deputy Assessor I. D. Cooper, because the latter would not show his authority. Pratt was arrested and brought before A. w. Brown, who was elected justice of the peace in Fredonia precinct but who has never qualiti, d for the office. He promptly made q civil case out of what would seem to be a criminal cause, and jury of three persons pronounced verdict of guilty. Then "Justice" Brown ''soaked" Pratt for $40.
 The people of Fredonia are univers- ally of the opinion that this was high handed proceeding, as Brown, aiing never qualified, had no authority to sit on the case.

Pants Were Cheap.

Three young men without a home are temporarily sheltered at the county jail, having been placed there last night by Under Sheriff Faircbid and Deputy Niles J. Cameron, who caught them at Walnut, where they had taken rooms for the summer in cave.
 These prisoners, whose names were not obtainable this morning, are charged with doing wholesale cloth. ing business at the expense of the Flagstaff Commercial company. In some mysterious manner about $200 worth of goods were removed to the alley, where they were stored in dry goods box. The supposed thieves had been doing flourishing business ped ding the goods when the source of lheir supplies was located. Then they skedaddled. Pants and coats sold all the way from two bits to $1. and lots of people invested. Trial tomorrow at 2 p. m.

Woodmen of the w orld.

Wm. M. Henry, deputy consul com mander of the Woodmen of the World. is here this week for the purpose of or ganizing camp of that growing order.
 The order was organized on June 6, 1890, when Hon. Joseph Cullen Root, F. A. Falkenberg, and twenty-five other prominent fraternal order men of the United States, founded and organized at Omaha, Nebraska. the Sovereign Camp, Woodmen of the World, which has already attained membership of over 30,000 m the United States and Canada.
 The WOodmen have lhe lowest rates of any order in the United Sataes. Its membership is composed largely of young men.
 No dangerous risks are taken. IL has larger prohibited list than any other order. It has outgrown any or der ever started in the United States,
 Wm. NJ. Henry. the deputy organizer. comes from his other fields of labor highly recommended as gentleman of honor and integrity.
 The entrance fee is $2.50. Look up the standing of the order, the cost of carrying insurance in it, and the promptness with which they pay all their losses.

Rampant Mexicans.

Frank Ortiz and A. Tafoia, two Mexicans, are enamored of the same senorita. Yesterday one of them dal- lied too long by the side of the bar and when he met the othel his jealousy began to crop out like grass Tn the springtime.
 "You-ah are a-h villain" he ex- claimed as he struck dramatic atti- tude and tried to look fierce.
 "You-ah arch a liar-h,' declared the other, and he doubled up his fists.
 "Go it." yelled the crowd.
 Ortiz and Tafoia wadcd in and were soon mixed up with each other and q profusion of Mexican profanity. An officer stopped the belliger enls before any great damage was done and Jus. lice Prime plaslerpd their wounded ceilings with $7.50 tiue apiece, which they both paid.
 Bad blood still exists and each de clarrs that burial will precede tho wedding.

 its no use," he gasped, as he alighted from his steed. and took a re- served seat on the plaza, while the per- spiration moistened the dust like a spatter of dew from a blossoming tree. .'Its no use. can't ride bicycle in this altitude. Takes all my breath away when I strike an ascent. Wish someone would take that thing back for me-"
 But as no one in the crowd could ride a machine his appeals were vain, and after getting his wind again his face assumed heavy editorial expres |. sion of determination, and setting his teeth hard he bravely mounted the wheel and started on the return journey once more. He found it such hard riding that he was obliged to get of and trundle the bicycle back to the owner.
 A cursory examination showed the expert the origin of the trouble.
 "Why, there's no air in the blamed tire" said he. "No wonder she rode like an ice wagon. It would take a three.hour orator to ride a machine in that condition"
 MT. Roll vows he will take an ail pump along with him when he goes bicycling hereafter.

THE GHOST DEER.
A Strange Animal That Ronms the
 Coconino Basin.

A Strange Animal That Ronms the
 Coconino Basin.
 Out in the Coconino forest. far from the usual haunts of man, there roams an animal the capture of which means Il small fortune to the hunter who shall succeed in securing it alive.
 It is nothing more nor less than a marvellous freak of nature in the shape of a white deer which has haunted the wilds like ghostly thing for several years past. Several reputable people testify to having seen the animal upon different occasions. It is usually &C., companied by two or three companions and is said to be even more timorous and elusive than the average deer. At the slightest warning it will scam- per away into the fastuesses, thus dis couraging all thought that might be entertained for it's capture.
 This white deer seems to bear a charmed life. too. for time and again bullets have whis,led over its pretty white form without so much as ruffing q hair. This strange denlzen of the forest is described as beautiful speci- :nen of the antlered tribe. It is re- ported to be pure white in color and of Il build and carriage to delight the eye of the sportsman. This sort of curi. "sity would certainly be of more value to circus than a calcimined wlite elephant fake. such as was exploi, ed by Forepaugh some years ago.
 Joseph NJ. Lockett reports that his brothers have frequently caught q glimpse of inc white deer
 In the mountains of South Africa there is species of wolves all white in color which the natives call the ghost wolves.

QUICK OR THE DEAD.
Mir. Bourbon Says He Was Lynched,
 Yet He Ia Alive.

" AAo AU SAiANcs
 P. J. V. Bourbon, at present serving a sentence at the Coronino county iail for conduct unbecoming resident of Williams, is up to his neck in sea of troubles. The last Lreaker 10 descend upon his unhappy head is bil! for di. vorce instituted by his wife.
 Before paying his last visit to Flag staff Mir. Bpurdon was treated some. what roughly, and if the limb to which a masked mob attached him had heen stouter the papers might have had a lyuchng bee to record It was a very exciting affair. Several men disguis, d in black masks and bicycle caps seized the unfortunate man and bore him struggling to the outskirts of the town. Mir. Bourbon says he remembers little more, exct pt that he stretched several yards of clothesline hemp. He could hear the hoarse j"ers of the mob as they danced gleefully about hi, ii sid form and pointed the ting,r of o n at him. Once they fired volley of pistol shots over his head and then he lost consciousness. When he came to he found himself in dark dungeon cell, and the next oay he was sent to jail. Mr. B B,urdon declares that he was as thoroughly lynched as any man that was ever strung up, and he cant understand why he IS alive to tell it.
