PHOENIX PORTRAIT COMPANY
The Outfit again Gains Unpleasant Not
orlety.

Orttty.
Sheriff Orme returned yesterday
morning from Nogales, having in
custody Charles White, who was
lodged in Jail.
White was a partner with the
man who signs himself johnson, in
the Phoenix Portrait company, a
concern that has gained consider
able notoriety throughout the ter.
ritory as beng an outfit of swind
lers. The method of this precious
pair was to collect photos for en-
larging, and secure an advance
sum of money as guarantee OF
faith on the part of the customer.
1t always turned out that the Gus
toner had the faith, and tho photo
company tho cash as we'll as the
original photograph that was in.
tended TO be enlarged. In spite Of
the fact that nearly every news
paper in Arizona exposed the
swindling methods of the pair,
they went right on undisturbed,
and getting more dupes every day
and pocketing the cash of the
aforesaid dupes.
The only time they tumbled
against snag was when they were
arrested in Stafford, Graham coun.
ty, for collecting money under
false pretenses. They appealed to
the district court from the decis-
ion of the Justices court, which
found them guilty. To insure their
appearance in the district court
when the case came up for trial
they put up as surety fine team Of
horses. This would have been all
right, but it happened that the
team was the property of Mr..
Gowett of this city, from whom
they bad been rented, and who
heard nothing more OF the outfit
until he heard that the horses
we're in soak in Graham county.
The late territorial grand jury re.
turned indictments against the
pair for embezzlement, and the re.
suit is that White, one of the firm
of swirdlers was lodged in Jail

peculiar status of the Durrant case

public comment. Since the post

the opinion is generally expressed
that Durrant will not hang on Fri

Hot Cuban Resolutions.

Washington, June S.. large
crowd gathered at the National
Theatre tonight to attend the
Cuban meeting in memory of the
Americans who have sacrificed
their liver for Cuba. Speeches
were made by the Representatives
Swanson, of Virginia, and Greene,
of Nebraska, and others Mr.,
Greene declared that not only
should the belligerency resolution
be passed by congress, but Spain
should be given so many days to
take her soldiers off the island.
He made light of the probability
of war with Spain and said that II
she declared war against the United
States 100000 swords would
CLEAN in the scabbards ready to
fight, and the blue and gray would
march together to the music OF
"Dixie." Had there been o Jack
son or Bryan in the white house,
he said, he believed thefires ofliber-
ty would now be burning through
out the island of Cuba.
Resolutions were adopted calling
for a prompt recognition of Cuban
belhgerency and arraigning al
who make the ''honor and glory o,
the nation, and the demands of the
pc pie subservient to the interest:
of the Spanish bondholdcrs and the

HERE'S A PRETTY HOW To-DO.'

"Bull Tick" law as follows:
Not more than oEe-half the live
stock brands run in Arizona were
recorded prior TO the passage of
the new law, according to the
Southwestern Stockman. That be-
ing the case, may be ask what pro-
portion of all the brands run in
Arizona will have been transferred
to the territorial brand book by
the first of July, when the time for
making such transfers from the
county records expires?
| We can closely approximate the
figures for ella county. There are
very nearly 600 brands recorded
here, of which number probably
40e are in actual use, the remain.
der having been practically dis.
carded. Yesterday, June 2, there
had been $50 brands transferred
from this county to the territorial
brand book, and allowing that fifty
7 certificates of transfer will yet be
applied for within the next four
8 weeks, the total number of brands
from ella county which will find a
place in the territorial brand book
by July / will be 200-one third
of the recorded brands in the
county, or one.half of those which
can be considered live brands.
If the Southwestern Stockman';
statement holds good in ella coun
ty, that only one-half of the brands
run were recorded under the ole
law, then, after eliminating discard
ed brands there should be in Gil;
county 800 liverons. One-quartel
of these, therefore, will have beer

These birds, the customs official told

Immediately before the arrival of those

knows; but when they return the peo-

there will be no more hurricanes that

turn, and then the islanders believe
that they have been lost at sea.
They make their rude nests in holes
and on shelves of the cliffs well out of
reach of ordinary observers; and here
each pair rears a single young one, lay
ing but one egg in nest. The male
and female birds take turns in brood

always found within the hole. After

who possibly have been disgraced. For
instance, were President Faure to make
a state progress through the provinces,
he would scarcely relish the spectacle
of statues and busts of old President
Grevy meeting his eye at every corner,
gazing down, so to speak, upon his
slumbers from the corner of every bed
chamber that he might occupy at the
palaces of the provincial governors
during his tour. The consequence is
that all statues and even busts that
are now supplied wholesale to the Gov
ernment for official use in the provinces
are invariably provided with removable
heads. That is why one sometimes
finds the face of President Faure. who
always wears high stand up collars,
looking down upon one from the body
and from the raiment of his predeces-
sor, President Perier, who affected
turned down collars cut exceedingly
low in the neck. That, too. is the ex-
planation why the head of the present
Prime Minister, who, as an exceeding
ly thin and frail looking man, is seen
perched on the phenomenally fat body
of a statue that was scuptured to rep
resent the excessively stout Prime Min
lister Dupis, who was in office at the
time of President Carnot's murder But
probably the funniest arrangement of
this kind was the fixing of the head of
the tall and stalwart President Faure,
whose stature surpasses that of most of
his countrymen, upon the shoulders of
a statue that had been carved to por-
tray the dumpy figure of President
Theirs, who was nothing else than
dwarf and in every respect physically
the reverse of the present Chief Magis-
trate.
1t would be curious, to say the least,
if, in the course of time, this art We're
to be imported into this country. I'm
agine seeing the head of Bryan perched
on the body of President Mckinley
that of Senator Sherman upon the torso
of eX-President Cleveland, and the IA
mliar figure of Mayor Strong support
ing the equally well known head and
face of the Hon. Richard Croker. There
is something very fascinating in this
idea of statue grating, and it's ad-
vantages are so obvious, especially in
republics such as ours, that but little
time may elapse before it is applied in
the United States.
