 Another victim was a young man named Collins, who has been diligently locking for employment. He conducts his investigations only in the night time and never outside saloons He got thirty days.
 There was an upholstsrer and barber, lately arrived from Jerome. He had money when he cams-but they all say that; these hobos bring more money to Phoenix than the winter tourists and they do with it what all tourists do not do-they put it into general circulation. This up holsterer had divided his money with his partner, who is in camp on the river bank. The upholsterer came to town, blew in his money, got drunk and was afraid to go back to camp, threading the anger of his abstemious partner. Recorder Jobs fixed things so he will not have to go back for thirty days, by which time his part ner's aispleasure may pass away. May Morrell, whose face is not un- familiar in police court, was there, grinning, jerking, winking, sleeping and incoherent, her system charged with dope. She was sent below until she should become intellig nt enough for trial.
 All these cases were sad, hut the saddest of all was that of 8 young man who was almost brought LID in this country. His mother is a ! respectable and energetic woman, 1 favorably known by half the people [ of Arizona. The youth was sent to the university at Tucson two years ago. His mother paid a part of ais ! expenses and he paid the rest, for he was industrious and ambitious to be- come educated. At the end of the year his money was gone and he sci out to earn more with which to con- tinue his university course. Many boys have done that and many mOie have unsuccessfully attempted it. He was one of the unsuccessful ones, SC week ago he drifted into town or
 his way from Clifton to Jerome, ant
 became an associate of hobos. Ht loitered about saloons at night, sl2p
 a part of the time on benches il the sun. The rest of the time ht
 was trying to get work to pay fol
 meals, which came so irregularly tha'
 some days he only got one.
 One question asked all these va
 grants was, Why did you hang abou
 the saloons all night?" The mo
 notonous answer was, There was n,
 other place open to us." That i true; to a penniless man the salool
 is the most continuously hospitabl
 place in Phoenix. There Is alway warmth and shelter. This universit student would have preferred som , other place, but there was none.

Knocked Out by Fred Whitman in
 Boxing Match.

New York, Oct. 29.-Thomas Hawk 1ns, featherweight prize fighter, was knocked out and dangerously injured last night by Fred Whitman in fight before the Greenwood Athletic club, Brooklyn. Whitman, the clubs of ficials and the seconds of both men were arrested.
 Four bouts were on for last night. Hawkins and Whitman were matched to fight ten rounds at 122 pounds. Theirs was the opening contest. Whitman had the better of the fight from the start. At the end of the fifth round Hawkins was very weak and all but out. He came up at the call of time for the sixth, but went down almost immediately from a heavy blow on the jaw.
 He lay unconscious on the floor and was carried to the dressing room by his seconds and thence was sent to the Norwegian hospital.
 The doctors there said he was suf- fering from the bursting Aof a blood vessel in his brain.
 Captain Kenner of the Eighteenth precinct thereupon arrested, besides Whitman, the referee, Gus Peverelly the timekeepers, William Thompson and John O'Brien; Whitman's seconds, John Bates and John Woodburn, and Hawkins seconds, James Burke, Ser

An Eloquent Address by Hon. Thomas
 E. Flannigan Last Night

The Good Temp,ars' public meeting in the Presbyterian church last night was well attended, a great many be- ing present to hear MT. Flannigan, who do no. ord- narily go to temperance } lectures
 MT. Flannigan's address was elo- quent and forcib1e, but was too short to satisfy his large audience. So completely did he carry his hearers along that they were disappointed when he closed
 His remarks were directed along the line of helping those who are unfor- tunate and victims of diversity, and not neglecting to reach out helping hand to those who have fallen. He stated a lamentable truth when he said: ''Too often men are judged to- day by the money they have, instead ot the good they do."
 General M. B. Collins presided, and made very impressive plea at the close of the meeting for the lodge. MT. Mussey sang two selections in excellent voice, which called forth enthusiastic applause. The male l quartette rendered two pieces which | were we'll received.

Buying! a Bicycle.

For three months past we have been selling a good bicycle for $30. Sev- eral persons in Phoenix and vicinity, tempted by carefully worded adver- tisements in eastern papers, have paid from s3S to s45 for the same wheel in the east, and paid freight or express besides. They got good value for the money, but could have saved 50 per cent by coming to us. The average buyer does notknow the selling price of wheels today. We do; it's our business to know it. We can save you money in every in- stance.
 We sell more high grade wheels than anything else; no other house in Phoenix handles high grade wheels. Our $100 wheels cannot be bought for one cent less in Chicago than we sell them for here; if they could, we would not be selling them. Our $100 wheels sell for $1OO in January, and $100 in December-no deterioration. We usually have some choice bargains in new and secondhand bicycles. Call and see us.

KNOWS BRANN.
A Fort Smith Citizen Gives Some Interesting Facts About the
 Texas Editor.

Mr. E. A. Thomas, late of Waco, low of Fort Smith, knows Brann of tlh2 Ieonoclast personally and be- lieves -tthlere are worse men than Brann right1n Texas, says the Fort Smith Sun.
 Mir. Thomas has been away from Texas but few weeks and knows all the parties to the Waco tragedy reported in yesterdays Sun, and knows all about the trouble leading up to the difficulty. There had been a previous altercation between the same parties, in which Col. Gerald got the worst of it. Col. Gerald is @ friend of Brann and wrote an article for publication in the Times-Herald, the daily paper of Waco edited by Harris. Col. Gerald took the manu- script to the office and Editor Harris said he ould look over it. It failed to appear in the paper and Col. Ger aid went after it. A personal alter cation occurred in the office, and Col. Gerald was badly used up. The editor took sick and Friday last was the first time he had appeared on the streets of Waco since the first difficult ty, and the shooting was what was expected,
 Mir. Thomas says Col. Gerald has two sons and trouble is not done yet.
 The first beating of Brann was within fifty feet of Mir. Thomas door and the killing of Friday was just across the street from his place.
 "Brann is q lightweight physical ly," says MT. Thomas. "but aheayy- weight otherwise. He is very agreeable man socially, and is of very plain dress and manner. Brann has an office down town but he spends very little timeinit. He does his writing at home where he has one of the finest private libraries in Texas. He works at 8 plain table with revolving desks around him and dictionaries at hand and when he can't find in the dictionary the word he wants he manufactures one.
 Brann has made all his money in the past two years. Two years ago he couldn't get credit at the grocery store, but he made q hit and is now worth $50,000 from the sale of his paper. He has a wife and three children and q beautiful home in Waco and is close neighbor to Harris.

 Large Audience.

The closing scene of the Baptist State Convention, which adjourned Monday afternoon, was a novel and impressive one and entirely unex- peeted.

Mcdonald, of Hot Springs, The ceremony was performed by Dr. Ford, of St. Louis, on the stage of the opera house in the presence of the entire audience of ministers, delegates and visitors. It was a complete sur prise to the entire audience. Just before the convention adjourned Miss Owen and MT. Mcdonald walked through the door to the right; leading to the stage. Dr. Ford was sitting on the stage at the time, and as the young couple advanced, the Doctor walked to the front of the stage aud in beautiful and impressive man. her, performed the ceremony.
 It seems thatss the young couple have been engaged for sometime, but there were parental objections on the brides side. Miss Owen came to the conventio as delegate from Monticello; Mr. Mcdonald came as a delegate from Hot Springs. Sun day they determined to have the ceremony performed in the manner it occurred.
 pr. Ford is an intimate nfriend of the bride, she having frequently visited his home in St. Louis. His wife has written book, the prinei- pal character in which is "Grace Truman, named in honor of the bride on this occasion.

There was Il fear for some time that the Senator would not be able to use his eyes much, but this information seems to indicate that that fear has been en- tirely removed. Mir.

THANKSGIVING OFFERINGS TO BE MADE TO THE POOR OF THE CITY BY PUPILS
 OF THE PUBLIC
 SCHOOLS.
Clothing, Food, Etc, Will Be Collected and Turned Over to the Ladies Benevolent Association for Dis-
 trlbutt0n.

A most iaudable and praiseworthy move is being made by Prof Hine- mon, principal of the public schools of the city, and the teachers, for q Thanksgiving offering from the pu- pills. All the white children in the public schools, who can do 1so, have been requested to bring Wednesday afternoon an offering of clothing or food, or something that will be of aid to the poor of the city. The offerings will be turned over to the Ladies Benevolent Association for distribution on Thanksgiving day
 This move is an innovation in the public schools of this city, and one that is most commendable. It is the purpose of those who have charge of the children of Pine Bluff to ineuleate into the minds of the children not only knowledge but principles of benevolence and un- selfshness. Too often are the morals and the nobler faculties of the children neglected in their edu
 cation. That the children of this city are to be developed in these higher traits, too, will prove a blessing to themselves, their in- struetors, and their benefciaries.
