BOARD OF CONTROL.
They Meet and Transact Im-
 pOrtant Business.
Several Prisoners at the Peniten- tiary of Exemplary Conduct
 to Be Paroled.

The board of control was in session yesterday in regards to the paroling of prisoners in tie penitentiary. Numer- ous applications were received, but those of only five prisoners were con- sidered and they will be pa! el. They will be turned out of the penitentiary Monday and can enjoy liberty as long az they violate no Jaws and abstain from using liquor. If on the contrary they fall back into ways of wlckednesa they will be sent back to prison to serve out their sentences. Fred Schaffer, who was sent from shis county to serve ten years for manslaughter, is among those who will be paroled. Since his incarceration he has made most exem plary prisoner and has em- braced religion.
 The board decided that the new sys. tenn of sewerage for the insane asylum could be done much cheaper by having the work done by the paroled prisoners and patients of the asylum. The pa- roled prisoners will be employed at the asylum and will be under the charge of Schafer, one of the paroled prisoners.

GREAT BIG PEACHES.
Nine Muirs That Weighed
 Twenty-Four Pounds.
The Spledid Fruit Raised By M. L. Smith and the Method By Which
 the Results Are Obtained.

This has been good peach year in the valley, but M. L. Smith has so far raised the banner fruit, the equal of which cannot be found anywhere. MT. Smiths favorite peach is the Muir, and that it is 8 success is attested by it's splendid flavor, size and prolific growth. From four-year. old trees MT. Smith has gathered 300 pounds of fruit.
 One of the secrets of his success is that he does not prune his trees, and this is proven by a test. Trees that had been pruned did not bear at all while by their side the unpruned trees bore fruit in great quantities. MT. Smith is a forty-niner and has spent many years in the fruit sections oi California. His experience there will be of great value to the fruit industry here

One Week Spent Trying
 to Get a Talesman.
When One Is Secured He Is
 Objectionable.
The Defense Will Probably Renew It's Motion for a Change
 of Venue.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
 SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 17.-On Monday the trial of Theodore Durrant, for the murder of Blanche Lamont, will enter upon its fourth week.
 All of the past week was spent in vain effort to find single satisfactory talesman. As the case progresses the respective counsel find it more difficult to be satisfied with the veniremen. Anyone who seems acceptable to one side appears objectionable to the other on general principles.
 Should no progress be made next week the defense will probG hly renew it's motion for change of venae If it can be shown that it is practically im- possible to obtain a jury here the motion will be granted as the denial of the motion at the beginning of the trial was only provisional.

 F.J. Netherton, superintendent of public instruction, has completed ar engagements with President Warning Wilkinson, of the deaf, dumb and blind institution of California, at Berkeley, where the unfortunate deaf. dumb and blind people of the territory will be taken care of in that institution and receive an education.
 Arizona has no institution for the care of these poor unfortunates and a bill was passed by the late legislature instructing the uperintendent of pub lie instruction to negotiate with some neigh boring state to care for and edu- cate the deaf, dumb and blind of the territory.
 MT. Netherton as soon as authorized entered into negotiations with the Cali fornls institution, which are now com pleted and the unfortunates of the ter ritory who are deprived of earning a livelihood will be well taken care of. z

DARING HOLDUP.
Geo. Sanders Is Waylaid and
 Told to Disgorge.
The HIghWayman Presented a Gun to Show that He was Not Jok-
 Ing But He Gets Lett.

George Sanders, a farm hand em. ployed on a ranch near Glendale, had a most exciting experience last night about g o'clock the like of which he is not anxious to again experience. He saddled horse with the intention of riding into town and stopping over Sun. day. He was proceeding leisurely on his way with no suspicion of being waylaid for holdups are very infrequent in this section of the country and mo- body thinks of going armed.
 His horse was gently trotting along Grand avenue and when he arrived at a point about mile from the Five Points, figure arose from the side of the road abruptly and in peremptory manner told him to "hold up."
 The command was given in tone of voice that admitted of no argument and was furthermore backed up by re. volver which was pointed directly at him and only few feet distant. Sanders did not like the ugly look of the weapon and decided that discretion was the better part of valor so without further ado held up his hands. With out lowering the weapon the high wayman cautiously approached and asked MT. Sanders if he had any money. He replied that he had a $5 bank note in his pocket. The robber then told him to lower one hand and take the money out of his pocket at the same time admonishing him to be very careful or he would pull the trigger. Sanders was in great ex citement for the muzzle of the gun was in close proximity to his head and he knew 6 false motion would mean his death. In lowering his hand he was trembling go that he unconsciously touched the horse with the spur. The animal jumped forward and the bandit also made jump to catch him hy the reins but Sanders saw his chance, al- though risky one. and again touched the horse with the rowel and the horse galloped. The highwavman began cars- ing and fired shot. Whether the shot was fired to him or was intended as a bluff, Sanders did not know, but made rapid time into town and told his story to several people in the Capitol saloon.
 He thinks the wouldbe robber was 8 Mexican although he spoke English well but with an unmistakable Spanish accent.
