 BELTRAN HELD.-Manuel Beltran
 was given a preliminary examination in Justice Gray's court yesterday on a charge of criminal assault upon Elvira Gonzalez, a little girl of six. The evi-
 dence against him was overwhelming and there was, in fact, no attempt at

 TO HUNT BIG CAMEL. A. Big ham, formerly with the street car con- pany, and the two Dilworth brothers, left several days ago. equipped for a camping trip to the Mogollon noun tains. They will camp at the head of the Arizona canal until the first part of next week, when they will be joined by James Thompson of Clarks cafe. The four will then proceed up to the Tonto country and overto the MOgOllon mountains. Here they expect to find deer, bear and other big game and will spend two or three months in hunting, probably going later to the White mountains.

Some time pre- tn 1 had been an unaccountable fall in the price of paper and that was restored, but there was no raise in the price of any other material used by photo graphers, professional or amateur.
 PROBATE COURT.-In the case of the order to show cause in the estates of Charles l. Douglass and Anna E. Douglass why the administrator, $. P. Hoefer. should not be removed, a re-. turn of the citation was made in pro bate court. In the estate of P. H. Coyle a. petition was filed praying for the setting apart of the estate for the maintenance of the family of the de- ceased. Arguments were heard against a. similar petition by the administrator of the estate of Charles H. Pierce, the other side having been presented some weeks ago. Thomas E. Flannigan re- piled on the part of the petitioner.

Among them are an old Remington rifle and brass jacketed bull let, taken at the battle of Manila; a bolo, a murderous looking short sword,
