Constable N J. Hale has recovered
two stolen wheels one belonging to
Mr.. Rosenberg, and the other ito a man
named Smith. He made the discovery
of the stolen properly yesterday out
near the experimental farm on Grand
avenue. He had business out that
way and W the wheels standing there
and asked the man at the farm about
them. He said that two men. or a man
and boy, had called the night before
and asked permission to leave them
there as the tires were punctured and
they could not proceed further The
permission was granted and the suppo-
sition was that they would be called
for last night. Mr.. Hale told the farm
keeper that they were stolen and for
him to set them in the house. which
he did. Mr.. Hale went after them this
morning but the alleged owners had

vim and W. T. Sexsmfth of Yuma.
| members of the famous rough rider
regiment reached Phoenix last night
on the same train with Corporal Greg
DRY of Phoenix Messrs. Marvin and
SeXsnlith will continue their journey
to Yuma Tonight. All three are look
ing we'll and feeling we'll save that
their bones still ache a little from ma
laria. All have practically the same
story to tell of their experiences but
all are glad to get home again and once
back they will not take anything for
their experience. They are all loud in
their praise for their officers and es-
pecially for Colonel Roosevelt Speak
ing of their experience one of them
said it was valuable to him for one
thing at least and that was that he
would know better the next time
Speaking of camp Montauk they said
they had everything they needed after
they got out of detention camp though
in the detention camp there was con-
siderable suffering before they got mat
ters regulated. The three above men
toned are dressed in blue clothes the
reason being that they could not navi-
gate in the larger cities robed in their
yellow clothes on account of THE at
traction of crowds of the curious. AS
the government furnished them with
either kind of a suit they chose they
preferred something modest enough
to travel ia. I would appear that they
were more afraid of being Hobsonized
by their friends than they were of be-
ing punctured with Spanish bullets.

ages in which it was alleged that Mar
tin Gould. the owner of a fine lot of
able bodied hogs had allowed his swine
TO lie down and then ever and anon
TO get up and root around in the green
pastures that John HammaZu had set
apart for the culture of the succulent

Steve Miller has returned from his
eastern visit. While in New York he
saw quite a number of the Rough Rid
ers, among whom was Dave Hughes.
Dave is looking fine but has a little
bald streak from his forehead to the
back of his head. This was made by
a Mauser bullet and it was a close
shave for Dave that it was not an inch
lower-Orb.
The Probate Judge today committed
Mrs. Jennie S. SpOoner Ito the asylum.
Mrs. SDoOner is a resident of the
south side and is unfortunate in that
insanity seems to have troubled her
at times during her whole life. She
was insane from the age of Is ito IS
and againa bout six years ago for
period of a couple of years. About 10
months ago she also had another at |
tack and at the present time seems al |
most beyond the hope of cure.
Two sleeping DRINKS appeared on |
the outside of the rail this morning in !
the Recorders court That is, they |
had been sleeping but We're able to be |
on dress parade today. The Recorder |
sized them up and his heart was filed |
with sympathy. He thought it would |
be cruel and inhuman to send them out |
into the cold world again, unprotected .
and alone after their system had be-
come so enervated by the rum demon.
He therefore gave them five days in
which to repent and fatten up on city
rations.
