A. j. Darnell Killed.

Monday morning a. j. Darnell was
shot and instantly killed by Frank
johnson at the 7UP ranch of the Erie
Cattle company in Swisshelm mount
aims, about twelve miles north Of Mud
Springs. Immediately after the kill
ing johnson. who bears a good repu-
tation, rode to Bisbee, accompanied by
his brother, and gave himself up. He
stated to a reporter of the Bisbee Orb
that Darnell on the preceding day had
made him the target OF vile abuse and
threatened to kill him. Being engaged
in hitching up team of bronohos and
unharmed, he could not resist. Mon
day morning Darnell hunted him up
again and started to draw his gun, say
ing he would kill johnson, when the
latter quickly fred, killing Darrell at
the first shot.
johnson was released on his own
recognizance until the scoroner's jury
should report. Coroner Williams left

killing.

Says the Denver Republican: W. A.
Clark of Montana, often called the
copper king" by reason of his large
copper properties, was in the city with
his daughter, en- route to Arizona, to
visit his famous copper mine, the Uni
ted Verde, reputed to be the richest
property in the world. The price
of copper, he says, will undoubtedly
go up in value on account of the war
and the demand for large ships No
matter when the war ends a number Of
large battleships will have to be CON
structed by this country; and Spain, if
it can raise the funds, and that means
a great demand for copper, which is
required in their construction. Mr.
Clark said he did not believe the price
Of silver would increase in the same
proportion as copper. He thought it
would go over 60 cents on account OF
the Spanish demand and the prospect
of the coinage Of the seignorage in this
country.

An exchange asks. "Who is the home
merchant" and then proceeds to an
swer in this way: "He is the man who
helps pay for the streets you walk on,
for the school in which your children,
or perhaps you, were educated; he helps
to keep up the church in which you
worship. He is a man who builds a
home which enhances the value of your
property. Every subscription paper
that is passed has his name on it. He
is the man who cannot afford to swim
die you. Self-interest, il nothing else,
would prevent this; he bears his share
of the good government and stays with
you through sunshine and darkness, in
the days of prosperity and adversely.
These are but few Of the reasons why
your patronage should be given to the
home merchant"

An interesting case under the live

to be tried at Tucson. The Arizona
Land and Cattle company was moving

about fifty miles south of Tucson into
Cochise county. Inspector Scholefeld
at Tucson was getting ready to inspect
the stock when Alfred Steinheld, the
head of the company, applied for and
obtained temporary injunction re-
straining the inspector from proceed

few days. 1t is in some respects
friendly suit designed to test the

desiring an inspection, believing it
possible that such a large body Of
cattle gathered up in wide range of
territory, may include cattle belong.

The Fourth was observed in our town
with more than usual patriotism and
ceremony. Quite mum Der from the
surrounding country were in town and
participated. One of the most inter-

the cornerstone of the foundation for
the new court house and Jail Judge
Zuck was master of ceremonies and
performed the duties of the difficult
position with his usual ease, elegance
and grace. All the county officials who
we're present, made short and appro-

the occasion. Hon. Jesse n. Smith, Of

minutes in his usual eloquent and hap

were number of races and other sports
which passed pleasantly and afforded
considerable amusement. But the real,
jolly, rollicking, good time was had in
the evening at the dance. Every body,
big, little, old and young, entered into
spirit of the dance with that abandon
forgetful Of self and which insures en-
joyment to all. "Tex," our Ward Nc
Allister, was in particular "nne fettle,"
and literally turned himself loose to
have a good time and see that every
one else enjoyed themselves. The 4th
of July, 1898, will long be remembered
by those who took part in it's celebra-
tion at Holbrook as one Of the most
pleasant events of their life.
Adam Hanna and wife were down
Adamana to spend the 4th. Adam had

Chauncey Depew recently, sized up the

"The Drummer" in the Chicago
Record gives the would-be tough
young man the following gentle hint:
"My dear boy, don't be desperate

hats pulled forward and their cigars
pointed up the same as you have them,
and they have the same kind of tooth
pick shoes and speckied neckties, and
they use the current slang just as
awkwardIy as you do, and are just as
far behind on the popular songs.
Because you drank two classes of beer
night before last and then sang, "a
Hot Time in the Old Town." through
the principal streets, that's no sign
that you are q person of any import
ance. Don't hold your shoulders in
that position when you walk, and
please don't swagger. It's great
effort for you to be tough and it an

Of women that is marvellous, especially
ia view Of the youth Of the national
organization which had its birth but
six years ago Educational in their pur
poses without exception the clubs Of
the country form great postgraduate
school for culture in all departments,
for research in the fine arts, for study
OF history, science e,'economicsand soci-
Dlogy. In the ranks OF clubs are to be
found women OF all ages, youth and
the silvered locks joining in common
effort for the requirement Of knowl
edge that was not obtained IN the
years Of childhood with their multi
plicity OF studies in the rudiments.
The development Of these clubs is as
much a manifestation OF the spirit Of
the nineteenth century as is the con
slant seeking OF new achievemC nts in
the realm OF science. IL is another in
iication OF the trend toward general
and universal education The clubs
are democratic in spirit and in their
membership are TO be found few II any
Of the distinctions that are accepted

Gated womanhood, educated not IN the
mere necessities and accomplishments
but in she things that make for a bet
ter and broader citizenship, the stand
ard for men must be inevitably raised.
The mother who knows is not the
mother who will be content to have
children that do not know.
And beyond that she is in a position
better TO know and TO explain the cor
relation Of things Of life. Hence she
is better qualified 70 direct in the paths
that must be trod in the discharge oi
the duties of life. The clubs are, too
great moral agency besides. Natur
ally the women of the land have theii
faces set towards betterment in al
fields. They are enthusiastic, patri

their destination. II is no doubt true
that in some ca es cluts have taker

4 WISE and SENSIBLE DECISION

The recent decision Of Judge Shack
leford OF Missouri not only stamps
him as a wise and able jurist but a
broad minded man full OF good com
mon sense. In murder trial case be-
fore him in Kansas City he overruled
a motion for change of venue, the
motion being made on the ground that
the newspapers Of that city had print
ed so much about the case that the
minds OF the people were infamed and
prejudiced against the defendant.
In overruling the motion he declared
that it was his belief that the news
papers endeavored always to be fair
and impa' tial, and that newspaper re
porters, hearing both sides OF all stor-
les, naturally inclined toward the side
Of the right, and that in any event he
did not believe that the newspaper re-
ports Of crime and criminals so preju-
diced the people that they could not
give TO the defendant fair trial and
render a verdict upon the evidence and
the law.
There is no doubt Of the correctness
Of this view, for both experience and
observation attest the fact that as a
rule motions for changes Of venue and
lther motions in criminal cases, are
made, not on grounds Of absolute fact,
or TO observe the ends OF justice, but
to defeat the law and save the life and
liberty OF the defendant.
Simply because a man has read in
the newspapers or heard the case talk
ed about on the streets ought not TO
disquLlify him from sitting as jury
man. All intelligent people endeavor
to keep abreast of the times by read
ing and discussing current events, and
TO rule out OF the jury box man be-
cause he keeps himself informed upon
such topics is to offer premium on ig-
norance and stupidity.
