A Verdict of Murder In the Second Degree

would be too severe on a man who would not buy his wife summer cook stove when he knew it would save her work, contribute to her comfort and prolong her life, and yet he ought to be punished in some way, because a little cash and a short walk would secure her a Standard Wickless Blue Flame Oil Stove, the only successful, absolutely safe kerosene cook-stove on the market. Te could see them in eight different styles and sizes and would be told all about their many fine qualities in a patient and cour- teous manner. Husband, quit paying doctor bills and figuring on funeral expenses and go to Davidson's Cash Bargain Store, four doors east of post office, and buy her a Wickless Blue Flame Oil Stove. Costs about $1.35 per month to run. Absolutely safe, simple as a lamp, kool, klean and konvenient. From s5 to 80.

 ing. Mir Isaacs comes to engage in
 the work of compiling a report of the
 resources of Arizona, in which also are engaged Messrs. A. B. Rich and J.
 M. Reuck, which will be used at the National Educational convention to be held in Los Angeles soon. It was thought at first Nthat the last two named gentlemen would be enabled to compile a complete report before the convention, but the immense resources of the territory were underestimated The two gentlemen delegated met with more than one surprise when they attempted to outline their work, and at last they found it would be necessary tc have assistance The national convention. by the way, will be the largest convention ever held in the west. The city of Los Angeles will be doubly populated. It is ,5 con- servatively estimated by the various railroads that there will be 100000 wis., itors there. Already S10,000 has been subscribed to entertain the visitors and more will be forthcoming ng.~-The Arizona report made at the national convention will be the greatest adver- tisement this territory has ever en- joyed. School teachers. thousands in will carry the knowledge of the richness of Arizona to the most parts of the United States and hardly any other agency could dis seminate the news with as much ef- feet.

MORE LABOR TROUBLES.
Hod Carriers on the New Knitting Works
Building Demand Higher wages.

The ever present contest between
contractors and laborers is on again,
and shortly after eight Io'clock tits
morning eight OF the men employed lis
bod carriers at the new building for the
Hosiery company, went out on strike
and the work at the building is at a
standstill. ea1 as192a s1a 1905 1925
The men who quit work are all
members Of the newly formed zHod
Carriers union, and thisis their first
fight against the contractors. One Of
the men stated thecause of the men
who had quit work as follows: ~ 73
The men had been working for Con-
tractor Fred Bull and we're receiving
$3.50 day. When the new union was
organized the scale was fixed at $1.75l
tor brick men and $500 for men carry
ing mortar. This change in wages
was announced to Mr.! Buhly but this
morning ne announced to the men that
he could not afford to meet the wage
scale. after this announcement had
been N de all the men belonging ito
the unien quit work, and wiHnot return
to- the building until the contractor
agrees 70 pay the wages according to
tie Union scale. The men claim that
as this is their first fight every. effort
will be made to make the contractor
meet their demands. The members Of
the other unions have signifed their
intentions Of assisting the Hold carriers
to gain their point, and a number of
the masons on the job have already
quit work. 1t is probable that som )
arrang ment will be made between the
men and the contractor this evening,
as it is hoped by both sides that the
strike may be settled as soon as pos
sible. 24' s&t

KILLED ON THETRACK.
UNKNOWN MAN LOSES HIS LIFE in
RAILWAY ACCIDENT SATURDAY.
WAS WALKING ON THE TRACK
No Marks or Papers Are Found On BODY
and It is impossible to identify Him
Coroner's Inquest Renders a YER
7a dict of Accidental Death. Bg.

Another life has been lost under the
wheels of Northwestern train, for on
last Saturday evening about three
miles south of the city a special bound
freight train on this road struck and
Instantly killed an unknown man who
had been walking along the tracks.
The accident was a my sterious one, as
the fellow was not seen at all by the
engineer until after the engine had hit
him and a theory is advanced by some
that the fellow deliberately walked in
front of the train for the purpose of
taking his own life. The train was not
run nlng very fast when the man wa
struck and he was simply thrown off
TIL track. He was hit in such man
ner that death resulted instantly. !"
The remains were picked up by the
train crew and taken to Waukegan.
As the accident had occurred in this
county the body was returned to this
city Sunday afternoon and taken to the
morgue Of Coroner Krichbanm on Mar
ket street; where an inquest was held
Sunday afternoon by jury consisting
5of Mat Moderi, N Terry Fl! Halber-
.stadt John johnson, Robert Larner
and F. "A! 'Whitbeck. After carefully
considering the facts in connection with
the accident the jury returned a YER
dict of accidental death while walking
on the tracks Of the railroad company.
The jury did not place any blame for
the accident upon the company. The
remains were prepared for burial by
the coroner and will be inferred this
afternoon. 52 l.lR 4-%.a19 4aiH.al3f 8
3 lit seems that the man is a. stranger
in this part Of the country and from his
dress he is evidently either farm
.laborer or a tramp. The coroner says
that the remains are those of a man
about IS years of age of German
descent! He was five feet eight inches
in height, had brown hair and eyes3and
on his face he wore a beard which was
about six inches in length. He was
very poorly clad. He wore blue coat
and striped trousers. On his head was
aIlarge straw hat which led the people
who found the body to hold the opinion
that he was a farm laborer. Descrip.
tions of the unfortunate man have been
seen sent to the different cities in the
State and an effort will be made)to dis
cover his identity. ga3 %osel 9a

Country Club for the sole purpose of
winning prize IN the match. The
entry list for the tournament Tuesday
was the longest in the year and when
the first four started the Club house
and1the grounds were filled with people
shivering in the rain, but determined to
take part in the contest regardless of
the weather. The rcaddies all retired
from the grounds when the heavy rain
began to fall but this fact did not in
any way affect the spirits of the golfers
and all day women with bedraggled
skirts and men we to the skin drove
the white balls over the field. There
were twenty startersi in the preliminary
rounds and at the. close of the day Of
this number four couples remained to
play the finals for the trophies p on
