 presentation to Col. Brodie. Captain McClintock, Norman Orme and other wounded members of the Rough Rid CTS, which was set for next Tuesday. has been indefinitely postponed on ac- count of jealousy which s'prang up in members who were not wounded and who believed that they were as worthy to receive badges as any of the members mentioned.

 A HABEAS CORPUS.-- Attorney
 Damron yesterday applied for a wri, Of habeas corpus in the case of Thomas
 Wilson, lately committed to the county jail by Justice Fincaid for 100 days
 for stealing an ovarcoat. The appli-
 cation alleges that Wilson was tried
 by the justice without a jury when he
 had not waived his right to a trial
 by jury. If this contention should be
 sustained many misdeme3nOr convicts
 might be turned loose. for it is the
 practice of justices to lat it devolve
 upon the defendant to demand a jury
 trial, in which case it is always all
 lowed. Judge Street will hear the mat
 ter today
 6COTTIE'S DISAPPEARANCE. - There was a good deal of uneasiness in the neighborhood of the block yester- day over the unaccountable disappear ance of an old man named Scottie, who lives in a small hut in that vicinity. He was a sailor and draws a small pen sion. Nearly week ago he received his quarterly stipend and soon after disappeared. His door was locked with a paddock on the outside so it was plain that he was not within. There were suggest ions Of foul play or that the old man had got drunk and had gone off in the bushes and died Inquiry was made in every di- rection and it was at last learned that he had been sent to the county hos pital.
 THE WRONG WARD.-A similarity Of names caused a serious mistake. Yes terday The Republican contained an account Of the arrest at Yuma of Q man named Norris Ward, wacI,ed here fer swindling G. T.. Hirschfeld and Chauncey Ainsworth by means Of worthless checks on the Bank of ATi- zcna at Prescott. It was stated that Sheriff Murray had gone to Yuma af- ter Ward and would return with him yesterday morning. He did so, but his prisoner was not the Ward wanted | The young man was prOmp ly released i and went back to Yuma last night. He i didn't manifest any unreasonable an ger at q mistake which put him to so great inconvenience and involved him | m temporary disgr2ce. The most seri-' Dus result of the misunderstanding is | that the real Ward has nc doubt been | made aware Of the designs against his | liberty and happiness.
