and Evans remained behind.
 Evans found lard can and sat down near tree to wait for the appearance of the birds. The other two boys began popping away and flock of quail set. tied in the tree near Evans. He blazed away and procured couple. Every time the skirmishers would shoot the quail settled in the tree and all Evans had to do was to pull the trigger. Soon the ground was covered with dead birds and still did Evans smoke and shoot.
 After an hours hard work the skirm. ishers returned very tired but with a few quail. Jobs who was scorer tallied up 125 birds but the skirm1shers apolo- ge i,ally explained that they had killed that many more but lost them in the brush. Evans lazily picked himself up and remarking that hunting was tire some work began collecting his own birds.
 Jobs won his money but the other two boys swore that it was a put up job between Evans and him.

GIVES HIMSELF UP.
Lemon. the Slayer of Sheahan,
 in Jail.
Arrives In Tucson Alone and Carry Ing With Him His Commit
 ment to Jail.
From the Tucson Star.

From the Tucson Star.
 L. M. Lemon, the slayer of Thomas Sheahan at Harshaw last Friday night supposed to be fugitive from justice, arrived at the jail about 7 o'clock on Monday evening, alone and carrying with him his commitment to jail. His acquaintances here said he would sur render himself, but the fact that he had fled from Harshaw and all trace of him had been lost to the officers for twenty four hours, contradicted that supposi- tion.
 As he was seated in the ante-room of the jail, dust-covered and sore from his TOO: mile horse back ride, he coe4ly talked of his trip but alluded to noth- ing that happened previous to hls flight.
 Lemon is a young man of 27, bright, quick, pleasing talker and rather good looking. He is of a decidedly sandy complexion and slightly below the middle size. He said that after the shooting he went to Washington camp. below Harshaw. He went to the house of friend, Dave Allen, to await devel- opments. He did not know whether Sheahan's wound was mortal and did not know in fact that he had hit him at all. If he had killed him he in- tended to surrender; if not, it was ne- cessary in order to save his own life to leave the country. He would have given himself up at Harshaw if he could have been assured of protection. In the meantime Sheahan had been carried across to Crlttenden to meet @ physician who had been telegraphed for. Sheahan died about II o'clock on Saturday morning and his body was carried back to Harshaw. News of his death reached Washington camp in the course of the afternoon. Lemon and Allen at once set out for Lenoria and arriving there after night Lemon sur rendered to Justice Harrison of that precinct. The Justice delivered the prisoner over to his friend Allen, and at II o'clock on Saturday night they start. ed for Tucson. Late on Monday after. noon Aliens horse gave out and Lemon, anxious to get in as soon as possible, pushed on, bringing the commitment with him. He was not locked up at once, but remained in the jail office an hour, when Allen came in. They later had dinner, after which Lemon was put into jail.
 No steps have been taken yet in the case and no time h s been set for the preliminary examination. It will be continued at least until the witnesses can be brought up from Harshaw.

CROWDS Struggle to Gain AdmiS-
 sion Into Court To Hear the Testimony in Durrant'S Case. No New Evidence Has Yet Been
 ElIcited.
Attorneys Wrangling Over the Dia- grams of Emanuel Church.
 Great Interest.

By the Associated Press.
 SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 5.-When the Durrant trial was summoned this morn- ing the crowd which struggled for ad- mission WAS greater than ever. Two lines of policemen guarded the corri- dors and prevented anyone from enter ing the corridor and approaching the court room except the jurors, attorneys, newspaper men or citizens having per mits from the sheriff. The earlier part of the session was consumed in long wrangle between the attorneys about the accuracy of the diagrams of Eman- uel church which the prose clsion of- fered. The defense claimed the dia- grams were inaccurate. The court allowed the introduction of the exhib- it's, saying their accuracy could be de- termined by actual measurements later
 From the actions of the defendants attorneys the impression has gained currency that the defense will be technical if the alibi fails.
 Detective Gibson was the last wit ness of the day. He described the finding of Blanche Lamont's body in the belfry of the Emanuel church. There was nothing new in his testi- mony. The trial will go on tomorrow.

FOUND OUT. An Inhuman Mothers
 Awful Crime. A Simple Minded COl- ored Girl Kills Her Illegitimate Offspring to Hide
 Her Shame.
Sequel to the Finding of Dead Infant in Hayden's Canal at
 Tempe Last Sunday.

Last Sunday morning the water in the Hayden canal at Tempe was turn ed out and party of people found the body of an infant below the milIrace in the canal. The ghastly discovery cre- ated great excitement in the butte city.
 With all possible haste a coroner's jury was impanelled by Justice Smith, who proceeded at once to hold an in quest. A physician examined the re- mains and pronounced it male child fully developed and said that it had evidently been in the water for several days. There was not the slightest clew that would indicate how the child hap pened to be in the ditch, but to the jury the inference was plain that the child was too young to stray away and fall in the water, and they rendered verdict that the child had been killed by party unknown.
 The officers, however, did not remain idle but secured the town in search of clew. They finally located the crime on an IS year old colored girl named Isa- belle Washington. domestic. When arrested she broke down and acknowl- edged her guilt. She stated to the off cers that the child was born on Wednes- day night of last week, and fearing that her shame would be made public she determined on getting the child out of the way. Before the break of day she took her offspring ar1 carrying it to the Hayden canal drow4ed the child, and It had been in the canal just three days when discovered.
 The girl gave the name of a white man well known in Tempe as the father of the child but in no way did she implicate him in the death of the infant.
 Sheriff Orme yesterday morning had warrant sworn out for the arrest of the woman on the charge of child murder and she was brought to to this city and placed in the county jail He passed the balance of the day at Tempe gaining additional evidence and looking up witnesses in the case. The young woman had for some time been in the employ of Captain Georges | family as domestic and they give her gooi character, descri blng her as an honest hard working girl but somewhat simple minded.
 Her examination will be conducted before Justice Johnstone this morning at 10 o'clock.

UNEXPECTED FREE BATHS
Mrs. Mulkey Turned the Hose on the
Byrnes Children
They Failed to Respond to Her Admonitlons
and She Persuaded Them
With Water

The Byrnes and the Mulkeys disobeyed
the scriptural injunction to dwell to-
gether in peace and the result was that
yesterday the representatives of both
families whiled away the weary hours in
police court where, Tor the edification OF
Judge Morrison, the differences of the
two clans were aired in tiresome detail to
the end that justice might be done and
peaceful relations established.
The two clans reside in the neighbor-
hood of Eighteenth and Bush streets, the
Mulkeys on one side of the road and the
Byrnes family OH the other. The senior
male Byrnes is cement worker by trade,
but owing to sundry circumstances he
has been unable TO follow it. He has
numerous progeny consisting OF nine
healthy, strapping children. 1t is these
children who were the cause of q rupture
tween the two families.
/ he facts as developed in the trial of
Byrnes pere and his Oldest son on
ciirge of assaulting the Mukeys was
quite amusing. 1t seems that last Sunday
TIE Byrnes progeny were summing them
SEW in front OF the Mulkey residence.
Mrs. Mulkey oruered them to move off.
Tn.y failed to comply with the instruc-
ton, whereupon she turned the hose
upon them. At this they all fed, but
Frank Byrnes, by way of return, seized
stone and hurled it at Mrs, Mulkey. This
angered her son and he proceeded to seize
upon the promising Byrnes youth and
shake him. This aroused the elder Byrnes,
who came to his sons rescue, ably as
sisted by Mrs. Byrnes Observing that
the Mulkeys were about to be over
whelmed by force Of numbers, a bright
idea occurred to Mrs. Mulkey. 1t was put
into execution. She turned the hose on
the approaching army Of the, Byrneses.
But in her excitement she dropped the
hose. and then Byrnes grapbed it and
threw it into the Mulkey yard. Satisfied
that the family honor had been main
tanned, the Byrneses then retired to their
domicile.
Later Mlukey senior returned to his
home from a trip down town. When he
was told of what had transpired he be-
came much wrought up and beat his
breast in great rage. He proceeded
forthwith to go on the highway and cry
aloud for the Byrneses to appear that he
might smite them. But they came not.
Then Muikey satisfied himself by reviling
them, which he did with great vigor.
-. Justice Morrison listened dispassion-
ately to this long drawn-out tale OF family
strife, and then told all parties that on
Friday at 800 he would decide whether
or not the Byrneses were the aggressors.

Colonel Duncan was severely disap-
pointed when Court convened in the
morning by the non-appearance OF Judge
Brunson. his attorney, who has been in
disposed for several days. Nevertheless
the plaintiff personally undertook the
task of eliciting rebuttal testimony from
several railroad men. to prove what he
had really said and done at the San Fer
nando street meeting of the strikers.
l.. ID. Biddle. manager of the Socialists
Cooperative Store and Productive Asso-
ciation. was chairman Of the meeting at
which Duncan had spoken. and he was
willing to tell the jury what he could rec
ollect of the proceedings. His impression
was that plaintiff had invited into the
hall the 100 or 100 men who constituted
the meeting, for the purpose of securing
from them powers of attorney to collect
from the railroad companies arrearages of
pay to which they might consider them
selves entitled. Blddle's recollection of
all that had passed at the meeting showed
itself to be painfully limited, notwith-
standing the somewhat leading prompt
ings OF Colonel Duncan. The lack of re-
tentiveness of the witness, who, like
Pooh Bah in the Mikado, had to be alter
nately one fthing and then another, and
who was unequal to the mental lightning
changes of being Colonel Duncan one
minute and Colonel Duncan's lawyer the
next.

All the evidence, from which the jury,
trying the suit of Blanton Duncan against
the Times Mirror Company is to deter
mine whether the words ''erratc blova-

to pecuniary damages, is now in. The
arguments will not be so lengthy as to
preclude from the case going to the jury

verdict is confidently anticipated, al
though not as promptly as was the case
when the Express was the defendant. At
4 O'Clock yesterday afternoon plaintiffs
rebuttal testimony was all in and the
jury was then excused until 10 O'Clock

asked if he could be furnished some
liquor. 1t was soon forthcoming. Then
he proceeded TO swear to a complaint

liquor with doing so without first having

When Mr.. Biddle's forgetfulness had
become too irksome to the colonel he ven
tured to assert that the mans memory
was deficient, a rsmark which was not re-
ceiyed with good grace by the court.
George j. Klotz, a brakeman, testified
that Colonel Duncan had advised peace
full solution of the strike, and admon-
ished the men to commit no depredations.
This witness was followed by P. X. Wood,
who was acting state secretary of the
Farmers Alliance. This man stated that
he had heard Duncan advising the strk-
ers frequently to remain peaceable and to
abide by the laws. When the meeting at
Hazard 3 Pavilion occurred, 1T had been
part OF the programme to have Colonel
Duncan talk against time on the stage to
keep away from it men whose incendiary
or infiammatory language might have in
cited the fevered strikers to do violence.
: Objections to the introduction of the
Kentucky dispositions, which cut but a
small figure in the case against the Ex-
press, were made successfully, and Judge
York ruled the documents out, almost in
their entirety.
