Graham Guardian: The most ab- ominable mail service that a com munity was ever served with is being dished out to the people of this valley in big chunks. A letter posted at Thatcher, three miles away, and ad- dressed to Stafford, takes two days to reach it's destination. A kick will be registered one of these days if the service does not improve that will startle the natives.
 Phoenix Herald: Misses Flora and Alice Grier experienced an exciting runaway today in the neighborhood of the cross cut canal. They were driving when the team became fright ened and ran with them for about a mile. They managed however to keep the horses in the road and as soon as they found out this fact and the further fact that the road had no apparent end they became discouraged and stopped running. No casualties.
 Republican: Billy Bannister is bartender in a saloon in the reservi- tion on the east side of Seventh street, and by actual measurement just forty feet from the city limits. They have no laws over there, so when the law-breakers want to com init violation they have to cross the street. Mir. Bannister felt as if he wanted to break some kind of law yesterday morning. He got drunk and came inside the city limits, but not very far. He made so much noise he attracted the attention of the po- lice, and when they came within hail. ing distance he retreated across the road and detied arrest. When the po- lice receded Mir. Banlster came back to Phoenix, called the police bad names and swore that he would not be taken. He kept this up long time.

MRS. EMMA STERRET
 GUILTY OF CONTEMPT
REFUSED TO PRODUCE PAPERS
 IN THE WALTER CASE.
Her Attorneys Will Appeal to the Supreme Court From the Ruling
 of Judge Troutt.

The legal battle that has waged be- tween the heirs of Gustav Walter, since his death, and Mrs. Emma Sterret daily increases in bitterness. Yesterday
 climax was reached in the case and Mrs. Sterret was adjudged guilty of contempt of court. Sho
 was ordered into the custody of tho
 Sheriff until she compiled with the order
 made by Judge Troutt. commanding her to produce all papers in court she removed from the rooms occupied by herself and Gustav Walter during the last two years of Walters life. The judgment of court,
 however, will not be carried into effect
 until next Monday. In the meantime ah appeal will be taken to the Supreme Court
 by Attorneys Hart and Schooler, who rep resent Mrs. Sterret.
 When the matter of the citation of
 Mrs. Sterret in relation to the estate
 of Walter came up yesterday, Judge
 Trout had the order, made on Mrs. Ster-
 ret several weeks ago, drawn up in for nal phrase. As expected, Mrs. Sterrer failed to produce the papers, and Judge Trout adjudged her guilty of contempt and ordered her into the custody of tho Sheriff. Mrs. Sterret was present in tho courtroom when the order was Vnade, but 1t failed to disturb her In the least. She knew that it was simply a formal order and In event the Supreme Court sustained Judge Troutt she could easily purge her self of contempt by producing the papers. After the order was made Attorney | Young, representing the estate, stated tu | the court that he was willing that a sus- | pension of judgment should be granted Mrs. Sterret in order to give her attor- | neys an opportunity to appeal. Judge l Troutt granted the stay, but next Monday 1 in event the Supreme Court sustains
 Judge Trout, Mrs. Sterret must produce the papers or go into the custody of thu | Sheriff as his prisoner.

 the order made by judge Troutt will be

and no warrants shall issue but upon req sonable cause, supported by oath or afflr- nation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the person or things to be seized" The order of Judge Troutt commands Mrs. Sterret to produce
 papers in court and describes no par ticuiar paper, with the exception of some stock In local corporation. The attor- neys representing the estate do not know that the papers will be of material use to them, but they want to find out, hence the order commanding their production. order is plainly in violation of the fourth amendment of the constitution, and be- hind that formidable provision they will stand and fight the order to the end

The Ex-Queen Is Satisfied to Accept Suitable Compromise for the Crown
 Lands.

Ex-Queen Liliuokalani, attended by her physician. Dr. English of Washington. and MT. and Mrs. Heeluke, arrived last night from Washington, en route to Hono~ lulu. The party will leave on the Gaelic next Tuesday for the eX-Queen's native home.
 Liliuokalani has received annexation with a sort of resigned despair In 1t she reads the inevitable, and sees that even hope for a recovery of the throne is ut terly demolished She will return to the islands and make them her home In the future. The ex-Queen is solicitous about the provision which will be made for her by this Government. She lays claim to the crown lands, amounting to about 100000 acres and yielding an income of Sl00 GOO a year. It Is her intention to con- test the title to this property In the event of the United States assuming absolute ownership of it. But the Queen is willing to compromise, and the most probable outcome will be settlement for life upon the present representative of the last dynasty.
 Colonel George w. McFarlane Is au- thority for the statement that as soon as the flag Is raised at Honolulu an organ ized strike of gigantic proportions will sweep over the island, impeding the work ing of plantations and the manufacturing of sugar.

The strike will be made for very nearly double that sum.
