to the morgue and Justice Kincaid be- gan rummaging among his blanks for subpoenas for coroner jurymen.
 Judge A. D. Lemon, for many years a resident of Phoenix and builder and once proprietor of the Lemon hotel, is expected to arrive here tomorrow. Judge Lemon now lives in San Fran cisco. The object of his coming, it is supposed, is to work for pardon for his son, Lawrence Lemon, now serv- ing an eight-year sentence at Yuma for manslaughter. The crime of which young Lemon was convicted was the killing of Thomas Shean at Harshaw, a mining camp in southern Pima county. The killing Eccurred almost exactly two years ago. Lemon was tried and convicted three months later. The finding of the jury was an unsatisfactory compromise, for the killing of Shean was surrounded by such circumstances that it could con- sistently be regarded only as a justi- fable homicide or a murder An eff fort to procure Lemcn's pardon was beg':n more than a year ago. Many influential persons became interested in the movement, most of them be- cause of their friendship for his father.
 A man in this town has learned that when one gets into the mire, his severer eXertions to extricate himself only sink him deeper. He lhas been in trouble with his wife and in con- sequence in jail. He celebrated his deliverance yesterday by going to the postoffice and getting mail ad- dressed to her. The contents of the letters he believed to be ,so incrimi- mating that they could be used as club. He caused her arrest for a vio- lation of the Edmunds act She was discharged for want of crucifying evidence, and for the first time he learned that the government frowms upon people who open mail be- longing to other people and that under the postal rules his wife is other peo- pie and not one, as the marriage ser vice enormously supposes. He has been informed that the postal regu- lations repeal the wedding statute under which he thought he was work ing and which he thought the bible had enacted. Now he is trying to escape from the indi ignation of the government represented in the United States marshal
 Col. J. F. Wilson returned yesterday from Prescott, where he is engaged in preparation for one of the most im- portalt mining suits ever brought in the territory. The title of the suit is Weiser, Field and other stockholders of the Seven Stars Mining company against Lawler. The property in- volved is in the Hillside district. Some years ago Lawler of Prescott. the owner of the property, sold it to sev- eral parties, who incorporated under the name of the Seven Stars Mining company. A member of the company was H. H. Warner of Syracuse, N. Y. proprietor of Warmers Safe Cure and other proprietary medicines. The property was extensively advertised, particularly by Warner, in connection with his remedies. The price to be paid was S400,0O0. Of this amount S2l7,0O0 was actually paid and under the terms of the agreement of sale the title reverted to Lawler, the purchas- CTS having failed to complete the transaction within a specified time. The failure was alleged to be due to misrepresentation in prospectus is- sued regarding the property. Suit was brought to compel the money paid Lawler and compel him to issue deed for the property. Col Wilson Is the defendants counsel.
