TRAGEDY RECALLED
By Inquiry about Nan Burned Up
Here Years Ago.

Old residents of Phoenix often stand
on the street corners and picture in
their memories TIE scenes of former
days and delight in calling up the
spectacle of the centrally located
squares now covered with large and
nicely appointed business blocks, that
in those days boosted nothing but
sage brush, or at TIE best, little adobe
buildings.
One of the most historic localities,
perhaps. was the southwest corner of
Washington and Center streets. where
nov stands the Porter building and
Gdjoining it the Thibodo building In
the days gone by little adobe butcher
shop stood on the corner, the proper

was the Family Liquor Store" owned

frame building in which Frank

Next came the drug store where
Mr.. Thibodo for any years at

the drug line, while the remainder of

JUNO rs RETURN
She Had joyful Suspicion when
She Reached Glendale.

Juno To- whose owner, w. n.
Tiffany, lately bought her back from
the east, has been associating with
aristocratic horses and trick animals.
After the abandonment of the racing
programme, which took her east, she
was taken to the magnificent stables
of Dr. W. F. Carver at FreepOrt, IL.
DR.. Carver has a lot of horses which
he is teaching to dive as well as sew
era1 others already proficient at it.
One of the experienced equine divers
of DR.. Carver will be remembered in
Phoenix as one of the fiesta attrac-
lions three years ago. The doctor also
has a small herd of elk, which he is
training for an amphibious existence.
Juno T's' home journey was I'M
eventful and wearisome. She moped
in her car for eight days, thinking
that she was being dragged about the
country with no definite purpose, and
she had grown weary of seeing new
things. Just before the train arrived
at Glendale she stuck up her ears and
began shifting at an atmosphere which
reminded her Of something, exactly
what, she did not know. She crowded
against the rope for the first time and
stood all the way to Phoenix with her
nose pointed into the night air gath
ering as much of it in as possible.
At Phoenix she perceived her where
abouts and whinnied with joy, which
was not complete until a wagon came
along with a bale of alfalfa in the rear
end of it. This was the first alfalfa
she had seen for, oh, ages! 1t was
dessert in comparison with the dry
and tasteless timothy and that base
and fraudulent imitation of alfalfa.
clover, with which poor horses are de-
ceived in the east. Juno fell in be-
hind the wagon, attacked the bale and
successfully resisted all efforts to
separate her from it until she had
eaten one end of it off to the wires
with which it was bound.

by him for examining insurance COM

The governor based his action on his
own speeches during the campaign last
year, when he censured McNail, the
populist superintendent for taking the
position that Church new takes. In
fact, Stanley was pushed to issue the
order by criticisms of Church's road
agents from populist newspapers.
But Church says there is now law
compelling such action, an dthis morn

This settled it, and afterward the
