THE FEDERAL JUDGE" /"

'eThe Federal Judge' by Charles K. Lush (Houghton Mifflin Co.,, pub lishers), is an entertaining story in which the reader is given peep into a large newspaper office in the experi- ence of a young lady reporter, and the methods by which corporations use the judiciary and the influence which are brought into use by their agents. It is a book for the student of political economy as well as the lover of the purely romantic features which em- bellish the story. The use of fed eral judge was imperative to the sue cess of great enterprise, and the agent of the trans-American corpora tion which had been given large tracts of government land, worked upon the frailties and soft spots in the nature of the judge, whom he wished to use. He believed that two-thirds of the men who rail at corporations are 1nsincere. ahd the other one-third can be req he'd by various influences. Judge Dunn, who is the Federal Judge in this story, was strong anti-corporation man, but the agent of the corporation found that he had collection of but terfiies and took his greatest pleasure in adding to his cabinet of specimens from his own meadows. The crafty agent of the corporation won the warm friendship of the judge by as- suming a passionate interest in butter flies. and he made frequent gifts of rare specimens to the judge. With the power of his great corporation back of him he lifted the judge out of an obscure district judgaship to the federal bench where he could yield a wider influence and be of greater service to the corporation. The agent kept himself unidentified with the in- fluences which worked such marvel
 ous success in the judges career, but lis intimacy and friendship gave him a strong prestige with the judge

 The sore has entirely disappeared, leaving not scar, but only slight mark, which we think may in time totally disappear.

THE RAINY SEASON.
A Possibility That It Is Setting in Out
 of Time

The rain of Monday was quite gen. eral along the coast, the only section not blessed being Phoenix and it's inn mediate vicinity. The whole country between Los Angeles and Fl Paso was deluged and at Benson the storm was especially heavy. In many places water ran over the track making the frequent stoppage of trains neces- sary for the purpose of Investigating the condition of the road. It rained all night at Mesa and as near Phoenix in almost every other direction from Phoenix. The fall was also violent at Maricopa. Dispatches to The Re- publican the night before stated that showers were general in southern California. The only theory advanced for the neglect of Phoenix in this al most general outpouring of watery gifts was offered by B. A. Fickas yes terday. He said there was evidently an opinion that Phoenix having been given the canitol building bill had been blessed enough for one season.
 But the gathering clouds yesterday afternoon and last night indicated that the valley is about to be submitted to a thorough and prolonged drenching, in which case the traditions of two decades will be set aside, for old timers say that there has not been wet springtime in this valley within twenty years. Nobody is anxious that there should be now, for it is feared that whatever rain falls now will be deducted from the valleys share Of the summer rains which are more opportune-

HOW TO WIN FAME.
An Eastern Man Points O-t tte Way
 to Impetuous Arizonans.

A couple cf gentlemen from the east were sitting in the lobby of prom inent Phoenix hotsl yeste day talking about the war with Spain. Che Of them is spending the winter in Phoe- nix on account Of "a little throat trouble" and the other has a light touch of bronchitis. Their physician, who has made an. inprcre' aynosis, is treating them for mikes"
 The conversation was IF jed on in whisper, but it was not lacking in energy or in profanity on that ac- count, for an impartial Providence has ordained that man with enc lung may swear as earnestly ard p-cfanely, though net so vociferously, as if he had dozen.
 Suddenly enc of the gent emen was seized by pain which took his breath away. He thought ar nrst it was in his breast, but he finally located it in his stomach. He called it indiges- tion, cursed something he had eaten for dinner, cursed the cook. the gro- ceryman, the butcher and the market gardener. The torrent Of profanity was interrupted by frequent violent coughing spells.
 Say, we can lick Spain in less'n a week." he whispered, resuming the original topic of conversation
 ''Why so?" asked the ether.
 Why not?" he echoed; "don't you know Arizony's goin' to help? I was just readin' today that feller Steve Brodie what jumped off Brooklyn bridge, you know, is gittin' up a regi- ment of cowboys at Prescott an he's telegfart Mckinley to let him in on it. I never seen folks wantin' to fight like these Arizonans. They keep a-clamorin' for war an- obstructin' the telegraft wires and delayin' the busi- ness of the government with their inn portunities to participate in the saugh- ter''

AN INDUSTRY BUILT UP.
And the Consumers of Its Products
 Benefited.

What the railroads have done for Arizona has been illustrated in many ways, notwithstanding the complaint in many quarters that they do not do more. Prices of all articles of con sumption have been lowered, many in dustries have been benefited and many new ones have been established.
 Prior to 1895 nearly all the building lime used in and about Phoenix was brought in from California at a price which assisted in keeping up the cost of building. In 1895 the s. F. P. & P. made a rate of g cents a hundred from Puntney and Valley Siding to Phoenix. That year nine cars worth $500 was shipped here. The next

No man is more favorably known in and about Epping, N. H., than MT. Joseph Stokes, the husband of the lady referred to. His word is as good as a U. s. bond, and every statement from him or his family may be most implicitly relied upon. Read this: sc. I. Hood & Co.,, Lowell, Mass:

To Be Made in Judge VIII
bur'S Court Thursday.
CITY HAS MANY CASES.
One Hundred and Forty Four From
Sixth District Court.
JUVENILES TO PLEAD ON FRIDAY

This city figured pretty prominently
before the grand jury of the county,
which practically closed it's labors to-
day, for OF the ia cases OF more or
less serious nature submitted TO the
jury l44 had been referred TO the jury
by the Sixth District Court. The jury
will report TO Judge Wilbur on Thurs
day morning, and parties who are at
the Jail and do not come within the
provisions of the Juvenile law will then
plead TO the indictments that have been
found against them. AS TO the parties
who may be indicted and are within
the provisions of the Juvenile law. there
was some consideration OF just how TO
proceed I'm their cases. They could not
plead at the same time as older persons
did, under the provisions of the statute
which went into effect since the grand
jury session last June, and the matter
to decide was whether the young folks
awaiting the disposition of their cases
at the state institutions should plead
on the same day the jury returned its
findings and the court room be cleared
for that purpose.
IL seemed to Judge Wilbur and Attor-
ney General Tanner that the spirit of
the law would be best carried out by
having the Juveniles plead on differ
ent day from the older persons, So ii
was decided TO have the parties indicted
who are under 16 years OF age brought
into court on Friday Of this week. Par
ties against whom indictments are
found and who are out on bail will be
required TO appear and plead on Friday,
October Z.
The arrangement to have the juven-
lies plead on a different day from the
others will prove very convenient as
the large number OF parties who will
plead the first day will be large enough
hours. -

MUNICIPAL TAXATION.
Gen. Wood VIII Inauaurste the System
at Santiago.

Santiago de Cuba, Oct. 4--Gen. Wood
proposes to insugurate system of mu-
nicipal taxation. making the taxes re-
troactive to September /. The funds OF
the customs house cannot legally be
taken for municipal improvements here
or in this vicinity, though the present
surplus is sl00G0 Consequently an
other source of revenue has to be OBJ
tanned. There has been a law to tax
and license every business and every
body, but since the occupation of San
tiago by. the American troops these
taxes have not been collected. Now,
however. the minimum rates will be ex-
acted. which will bring in a revenue of
$3.50, 900 per month, which is badly need
ed for local improvements. IL is the
policy of Gen. Wood to spend all he
can legitimateiy upon Santiago, which
is the exact opposite of the system
adopted by the Spaniards.
Gen. Garcia called on Gen. Wood yes
terday. He proposes going TO Wash
ington to advocate Gen. Woods plan Of
disbanding the Cuban army.
Gen. Wood leaves here today TO be
present at the evacuation of ManZa-
Milo. He will continue the functions of
the local Spanish authorities and all
other arrangements.
Col. Ray claims that 20 per cent. OF
his regiment have been sick from lack

found in their bed in an unconscious
condition by their daughter. Mrs. Elias
A. Burdick, whom they were visiting at

When Mrs. Burdick opened the door
to call her parents TO breakfast, the
odor of escaping gas was suffocating,
and she went quickly to the bedside
and found her father and mother un-
conscious. Their nostrils and other por-
tions OF the face were discolored, but
an examination showed that life was
not extinct. Mrs. Burdick notified other
members OF the family. who sum-
mo9ed physicians. and very soon Drs.
O'Neii and Eccleston were on the scene
and ministering 10 the sufferers.
