HELD WITHOUT BAIL.
Result of the Examination of Sydney
Page.

In the case of Sidney Page. who is
charged with having murdered Chris
Robertson, Justice Shuster of Tomb
stone ordered that Page be turned over
to the custody of the sheriff and held
without bail to await the action of the
grand jury.
The Tombstone Prospector says that
a surprise was sprung by the attorneys
for the defense in the Sidney Page case
when the announcement was made
that the case would be submitted with
out placing witnesses for the defense
on the stand, thus waving further ex-
animation. This was followed by a
motion made by Attorney Bowman
asking that the prisoner be admitted
to bail. The arguments precipitated
by the attorneys gave an outsider not
acquainted with Blackstonian methods
or legal procedures, an insight into the
science of legal fencing.
Stripped of the legal phraseology, the
deductions from the discussions is that
either side are proceeding guardedly
The prosecution is accused of astutely
hiding their hand" in that but four
witnesses were placed on the stand
when fully twenty-five more are really
I
same tactics and, although they may
also have an equal number of wit
nesses, they were not to expose their
proof in the examination. a. r. Eng
| fish made a strong plea to make the
case a bailable one. He held the evil
dence before the court on behalf of the
prosecution was not sufficient to con-
vict, and put forth an able argument in
support of his contention. He cited the
Morgan case as bailable and laid stress
on the fact that Page should be the
more entitled to a reduced bail Dis
trict Attorney Land defended the ref
erences to the Morgan bail, the case not
being analogous. He claimed with eff
feet that the evidence against Page
was conclusive and direct enough to
warrant the holding of the prisoner
without bail. Mark Smith cOntended
with convincing argument that the evil
dence submitted was not Offset by the
! defense. The court was guided by the
evidence and his duty was clear He
cited some Of the testimony and was of
the same opinion as the district attor-
ney in regard to the bail.

THE PARSONS LIMIT.

He'd been preaching and exhorting
For a score of years or so
In a portion of the vineyard
Where the harvesting was slow:
Where the temporal inducement
For his ceaseless diligence
Was promise of four hundred
For his yearly recompense.
Unrelenting was the ardor
He devoted to the cause,
And though slowly came the dollars
Still he labOred without pause.
Till one day they came and told him.
AS he kicked against the pricks,
That they'd raised their offered stipend
From four hundred UP to six.
Then the good man sank exhausted
AS he feebly made reply:
Don't, ] pray you, men and brethren,
Thus my patience overtry;
For to CLEAN the four you've promised
Hath so warped my vital store
That 'twould kill me if you taxed me
To collect two hundred more"

CLIFTON NUGGETS.

The people of Clifton seem to be
rapidly preparing for the next cen
sus, and the following from the Era
indicates that the Mexicans are doing
their part:
Last week proved to be one of the
most prolific in the history of this
camp. Besides the vast number of
copper nuggets that were turned out,
there were others-for instance, the
claim of Alexandra Montoya produced
a ten-pound nugget that is the pride
of the household. 1t is not a copper
nugget nor a gold nugget, but Alex
is just as happy as if it was diamond.
~. Montoya was also made happy
by the discovery of n fine nugget on
his premises one bright morning and
says that he would not part with it
at any price.
But Preciliano Vega made the most
important discovery of the week-he
found two! and is so highly elated
that it is said that he has quit work
entirely. and even sits up of nights
with them.
Luz AlvaTey and Luz Alvidrez were
each rewarded for their patience and
perseverance by uncovering large,
beautifully shaped nuggets on their
homesteads and are highly pleased.
