OLD BAILEY DOOMED.
The Famous Criminal Landmark of
 London Is to be Removed

Almost every one has heard of the
 gaol of Newgate and the Old Bailey sessions house in London. Novelists
 have told of them and travellers have
 made point of seeing them. And now the historic old buildings are to be
 pulled down to admit of the building
 of grand new sessions house on the
 ground they now occupy.
 Newgate marks the site of an en- trance into a Roman city. The gate
 was made in the west side of the later lcity wall. In William the Conqueror' time a gate known as Chamberlain" !"
 or the "Chamberlain's Gate,'' stood
 across the street between Warwick lane and the present prison That
 gate, rebuilt in the reign of Henry II, or his successor, was in the reign Of
 Henry III in common use as a prison.
 In the year 140O Henry " committed 1t by charter to the care Of the corpor- ation. Sir Richard Wilmington, moved
 by the ruinous state of the fabric and the terrible state of the gaol, instruct ed his executors to rebuild the gate,
 which was done upon the customary plan.
 dlttI du duultlOu, IC- pairs and refronting at various periods the old building gave way to new ones designed by George Dance, R.. A., the first stone of which was laid by Lord
 Mayor Rockford, on May 31, 1770. Be fore they were finished they were pill Jagged and burned on June and z, 17S0,
 by the "No-Popery" rioters. After ward a sum of 6 30,000 was devoted to repairing and character. On the open ing of Whitecross street prison, in 1915, Newgate ceased to be used for debtors,
 and since 1882 it has been used only flor prisoners awaiting trial during ses-
 sions and for those condemned to death.
 The present sessions house, next to
 the jail. consists of two courts, the old and the new. The first mentioned is
 for the more serious cases. It-is light ed from the north and has a gloomy and sinister aspect. The first sessions house was that of Stowe's time, and, sir. gular to say, the trial court was
 open to the street, the back looking northward It was succeeded by q court house. erected in 1773 and de- stroyed in the 'No-Popery' riots above alluded to, but rebuilt and enlarged in 1909 by the addition of the site of old Surgeons hall, where the bodies of
 indicators were taken for dissection immediately after execution.
 The new sessions house will be re-
 built from plans prepared by MT. An drew Murray, the city surveyor, and will be carried out at an estimated cost of 2120,0 ,000.-Londcn Chronicle.

LUCK OF FLEETWOOD.
His Miraculous Salvation From inc
 Democratic Convention.

B. E. Ellinwood was born lucky and his good luck has been unbroken ever since. By series of the most remark able circumstances during the Pres colt convention he escaped the unen- viable position in which Col. J. F. Wilson finds himself as democratic candidate for delegate to congress. It looked a dozen times as if he were doomed to tie nomination, but as a delegate said yesterday, it wasn't in the cards.
 A majority of the spectators believe that he was actually nominated once, receiving sixty-two votes, one more than majority. Only fifty-eight were counted for him, the Pinal county vote being counted for Wiley B. Jones So sure was one of the Pinal delegates, H. D. Cassidy, that Ellinwood was nominated, that before his vote was announced he turned to another man and said, "That settles it," pointing to a tally showing that Ellinwood had re- ceived sixty-two. A half dozen tallies kept by other persons showed the same result It is not believed that the count was made against him in tertionally, but that there was a mis- understanding which defeated the will of the convention On another ballot the Pima county delegation, which was solid for Ellinwood after the with drawal of Smith, divided to cast a complimentary vote for candidate whom the delegates did not want. A solid vote by Pima would have mad nomination. On the second balloi after dinner when Ellinwood tic with Wilson, each receiving six votes, member of the Marico county delegation and one of Eli woods most ardent supporters a. Smith, neglected to vote for his choe So that here were three distinct inc dents which if they had not happen would have given Ellinwood a ma jority. And all these things happene after his unexpected estrang ngemeni from Judge Barnes.
 IL never before happened in the his tory Of conventions that a candidats was so numerously extracted from the jaws of apparently certain disaster MT. Ellinwood himself was ulti- mately impressed by these numerous and signal deliverances and remarked when it was all over that he felt a sense of relief which had been a stranger to him ever since he had been seized by the desire to be a delegate.

ment and dispersed, there is still an-
 other set of scoundrels to be dealt with-those hypocrites who have been stealing our bread and picking our l pockets, meanwhile smiling blandly
 and monkeying with the affections of
 Arizona, begging the votes of her sons whom they are fixing to crush
 with an iron heel. These hypocrites will not be stood upon as to their
 necks like the money kings, neither
 will they be dispersed like the mounte- , banks, but they will be made to sink into their luxurious and naturally con- | fortless chambers, where they will be allowed nothing to eat but food and
 nothing to wear but clothes. Their thirst for gold will be appeased by nothing stronger than silver.
 When all the unriIlteous have thus
 been punished the millennium will be of full force and effect in this territory. l There will be a new bloom on the all ready mantling checks of Arizona,
 whom MT. Winsor construes to be a maiden wooed and won by the man she really loved, presumably silverite She had, according to MT. Winsor's S
 own story, been engaged in Irritation
 with other people. There will also, according to the Sun, be either a smile on her lips or "the man she loved on her lips" The language on this point is ambiguous, but that does not matter. There is no valid reason why the man and smile might not both be there. Indeed, that would be quite natural. And then there is to be engraved on the forehead of this maiden, Arizona, the 'silvery legend, 16 to l." To one who has lived only among conventional people, this will seem outre. Among some races, espe- cially those of the south seas, the wo- men have all sorts of figures and leg ends worked or embroidered on their faces, but no white man would like to see beautiful woman like Arizona with ''16 to P or God Bless Our
 Hcme' or What Is Home Without a
 Mother engraved on her forehead. MT. Winsor ought to remodel his
 plans. Let him cause "16 to 1,' if he must have it, to be tattooed somewhere ielse on Arizona's person so that it will
 be concealed by her clothing; on the arm, for instance, but not so near the shoulder as to be disclosed by a ball room dress.
 : It is barely possible that none of the things MT. Winsor has described will
 come to pass, but his article will not
 be without harmful effect. The Sun
 having let itself into the field of the
 Phoenix Herald, that journal will be
 urged to renewed efforts in maintain
 ing the championship belt for unin- telligibility, foolishness and rankness.

DEATH OF MRS. SMITH.
The Widow of President NCkinlev'S
 Most Intimate Friend.

Col. c. W. Johnstone yesterday re- ceived letter from Charles G. Dawes, comptroller of the treasury, acknowl- edging the receipt of contributions to a fund for the family of the late Joseph P. Smith, director of the bureau of the American republics. After writing the letter MT. Dawes added in a postscript of the death Of Mrs. Smith. The ne cessity for such a fund will therefore be more urgent than ever, for this death makes seven orphans. MT. Smith was, perhaps, the presidents most intimate personal friend. He was tireless worker and literally worked himself to death. His life was given so wholly to making the political and material fortunes of others that he neglected opportunities which come to few men, to provide a large fortune for himself. After the death of Mr. Smith year ago his widow was ap- pointed postmistress at Urbana, O., where she resided. MT Smiths wife and children were by no means left destitute. There was host of rich and influential relatives and friends, but it was thought fitting by the fore most members of the administration that something ought to be done of a semi-public character for the widow and children of man whose life had been given up in the service of his party and his country.
 The office held by Mr. Smith at the time of his death was one which had been especially created for him. Moth ing within the gift of the president would have been beyond his reach, but f1' one thing, that any other office which the president could bestow up on him would bring him before the senate for confirmation. On account of the antipathy of Senator Foraker of Ohio, whom MT Smith had violent ly and systematically antagonized, it was improbable that he could be con- f1rmed. As director of the bureau of American Republics he received sal ary of $10,000. It was believed that this office would give him a badly needed rest, but Oh the contrary it
