SUBURBAN LIFE AIDS MORALS.
1t Causes a Former City Resident to
Give, Up Swearing and He
Feels Thankful.

In one thing at least" said man
who has moved into the suburbs,
according to the New York Sun, sub
urban life has been a benefit to me.
1t has taught me not to swear.
Il found right away in the suburban
town that people didn't swear, or not
in public. anyway. They couldn't very
we'll. They were travelling back and
forth on the trains, all the time in con-
tact with all sorts of men and with the
same people day after day. including
men who didn't swear. And how could
4 man swear under such circu,n-
stances. And 1t was just the same
around the railroad station and the
post Office. There were always more
or less people about, including neigh
bors, and often women and children,
and people didn't swear. Quite apart
from any other consideration what
ever, it was not good form.
"Refraining from swearing in the
suburbs has had restraining influ-
ence upon me here, and now I have
stopped swearing altogether. And I'm
glad of it, for it's miserable practice,
and feel better free from 1t. And 1
thank the suburbs forit. Idon't know.
how the advantages as between city
and country life will finally sum up in
my mind, but lido know that when am
setting down the figures shall put

THE PEPPER CASE.
Husband and Wife Taken to Tucson by
Sheriff Leatherwood.

Sheriff Leatherwood of Tucson ar
rived in the city yesterday morning af-
ter Ben Pepper and wife of Texas,
whose arrest here on Sunday after
noon was mentioned by The Republi-
can yesterday. He could not have re-
moved them even from this county to
Pima without their consent, since no
extradition papers have been issued
yet, and so far as is known the Texas
authorities have not yet taken any
steps toward getting a requisition
But they consented to accompany the
sheriff to Tucson and Pepper said he
would go back to Texas without a
requisition. When they disappeared
from Kimball county, Texas, all trace
of them was lost and as long ago as
last fall it was suspected that they
had come to Phoenix. An uncle of
Mrs. Pepper, who was ueputy sher-
if OF that county, came here and
hunted for them. A short time after
that, by the way, he was murdered.
In spite of assurances by Pepper that
Sheriff Leatherwood says his inStruc-
lions were to capture them both.
From couple of letters sent the
sheriff it is learned that Peppers
father is worth about 100000. When
the young man was arrested for for
gerry, his father-in-law. who is also
wealthy, furnished the bail. When
his son-in-law forfeited his bail, the
young mans father refused to make
good any part OF it, SO that the angry
father-in-law became the instigator of
the long and tireless search which
came to an end on Sunday afternoon.

THE ELFRIDA SAFE.
DR.. Webb's Steam Yacht Was Not
Wrecked.

New York, June 6.-Word was re-
ceived by the auxiliary naval board
that DR.. w. Seward Webb's steam
yacht Elfrida, which was reported
wrecked on Barnaby island in the St.

The yachts in the Erie Basin, which
we're inspected by the board, are the
Shearwater, Sylvia, Stranger, Eugenla,
Vidette, Rival, Nearia, Lagonda, Cos
cite and others. The inspection was
made by Commander Kelley and En-
gineer Dixon.
The Shearweather belongs to man
FAMED Wo1cott of Denver. The Stran-
ger is owned by Mrs. Lewis. Gen.
Grenville M. Dodge owns the Rival and
|J. G. Cassatt owns the Eugenla.

HALF-NIGHT SESSION
The City Council Hod a Pro-

The raffer of Submitting the B0ad-
ing Proposition to Vote Vas
Postponed.

The city council adjourned a little
before 1 o'clock this morning after
five hours session in which very little
was accomplished. A great deal of
time ran to waste In the discussion of
a motion by the mayor to submit to a
vote of the taxpayers the matter of
bonding the city to construct water
works and sewerage system. The
motion was strongly supported by
Councilmen Dyer and Brooks, but was
opposed by Councilmen Morford and
Sanders on the ground that they had
not had time to consider the question
from it's various sides. Mr.. Sanders
believed it would take him about a
month to complete his observation of
it. The discussion included the liza
bility of the city to the Phoenix water
company under the twenty-five year
contract. The shortcoming of the
water company in regard to pressure
under the same contract became part
of the debate. At length the mayor
withdrew his motion and Mr.. Dyer
submitted another authorizing the
appointment of committee to en-
ploy civil engineer to ascertain the
cost of constructing the water and
sewer systems. This motion carried
Another time consuming incident OF
the session was the confirmation of tho
officers elected by the fire department
at the late annual meeting OF dele
gates. There was remOnstrance
against the confirmation OF Chief4elect
Henry Fowler on the ground that he
had not been prompt enough in his at
tendance at fires during his service in
the ranks. But he was confirmed.
The confirmation of Julio Mar
ron as assistant chief, T. D. Molloy,
secretary; Alex Rheinstein, treasurer;
A. E. Cobb, engineer, and J. w. Sim
mons, janitor. went ON without hitch.
But struggle occurred in the case of
e. Gonzalez, who had been elected
stoker at the general meeting of the
department and Andy Thoman, who
had been elected to the same position
by the engine company. There had
been two constructions OF the regula-
tons. The first regarded the stokeI
as a department official to be elected
by delegates The latter held the po-
sition to be a company Office, which,
under a late resolution by the council,
is to be filled by the company
The council did not attempt to settle
the dispute, but referred the election
of Gonzalez back to the department.
1t is believed that death blow was
struck at the Dutch ditch, which, how
ever, has seemed to be on its last legs
for the last five years. Health Officer
DR.. William Dufield had submitted
report declaring the ditch to be a

health along its course. There was
also recommendation from the health
board for it's abatement
