bic to save as much money as hereto
fore, owing to the recent advance in
their rents and the price of nearly all
kinds of provisions, with no corresponds
ing advance in their earnings or wages
Instead of any increase in wages being
made, the report, stated that in many
cases wages have been lowered. It was
stated that there, was every whit as
much desire on the part of those interest
ed to save money as there formerly was,
but they were at a, loss to find anything
to save. The report further stated that
this was the situation with number of
families where the habit of saving had
been formed under the profitable infiu-
ences of the fund system and that as soon
as conditions Were better they would
resume putting away their mite.

ONE ON WILLIAM
Black Bass and Pickerel Do Not
 Thrive on the Desert.

Eastern people have great ideas about Arizona. They think because it is desert country Arizona has no fish. no water craft, no drownings, and for that matter, nothing else of import ance.
 Those who live here know that Ari- ZOna is a law unto herself, having no fixed rules of action, and that while it may be dry as a bone for eleven months, during the ocher month in the year il is hardly safe to go to bed in a dry wash for fear of being drowned before morning. A man may cross the dry bed of a river and in an hour come back and be drowned in water and quicksand. He can start across the desert and if he happens to have plenty cf water with him it will he apt to rain before night and bog him down in the mud hub deep. If he is short of water it will never rain. As for water craft. there are three or four big dredgerS working in this county now. miles from any natural water course, and at Yuma they are shoveling up gold with this mechanical device. In the matter of fish, eastern people have not yet heard of J. F. Walkers excursions to Oak creek or the catfish trust organized by Frank Shirley and rr. Roberts, all of which is instanced by the follow ing story from a New York paper:
 William Mcconnell and Augustus Thomas, the playwright, were discuss ing NIr. Thomas latest stage offering at the Lambs club the other evening"
 - must come over and see the piece said Mcconnell. They tell me you have got the atmosphere. the characters and the scenic peculiarities of Arizona dead to life. I'll come over and see whether it is true or not. 1 was out there for three months once
 Business or plcasure?' queried MT. Thomas. T didn't know you had ever been in Arizona
 Oh, yes cheerfully responded Me Cornell, I went down ther4 with a gang from Colorado Springs on fish ing trip-had a great time. Got some pickerel and black basg as fine as I have ever seen.'
 William,' solemnly interrupted MT. Thomas, I am sorry tD see you return ing to your evil ways. The man who says he caught a fish in Arizona will stand just as good a chance of catch ing some more in H2des later on.'"

THE DEMOCRATIC TICKET
It is Filed But the Choice of Loca-
 tion Not Yet Made.

The democratic county ticket was supervisors yesterday by Captain J. L. B. Alexander for a place on the official ballot. Captain Alexander was asked whether it was desired that the ticke. should be placed under the Smith or Wilson head. Anybody who knows Captain Alexander and the sentiment of the county central committee ir re- spect to these two candidates would not suppose there would have been any hesitancy in Captain AleXander's cjac- ulation of the magic name Of Smith. But he didn't ejaculate. He said he would return tomorrow or soon and se- lect a lot in the political cemetery for his candidates. He desired the clerk in the meantime to keep the ticket on ice.
 In the first place Secretary Akers has not yet certified the nomination or either smith or Wilson to the board Of supervisors. If he should decide that Wilson is the regular nominee the county candidates would be awkwardly placed on an irregular ticket under
 
 mittee should discriminate agains Wilson, though he may not be decided tC be the regular nominee, the county ticket would no doubt lose many Vii son votes and there is not a denocra ti= vote in Maricopa county tn be spared. It is no wonder that Captain Alex ander, impetuous as he is. hesitated.
 The central committee has adopted the silver dollar as the vignette of tho county ticket and, by the way. the sil- Yer dollar was chosen by the Smith convention. A silver dollar, however, has two sides, the obverse and the re- verse. A silver dollar in print always displays the head of the goddes of liberty, and il was that side, no doubt. that the Smith convention had in mind. The county candidates, though. would like to have the other side of the .sil- yer dollar out, giving especial prom thence to the motto. Tn God We Trust
 There were indistinct rumors yes terday Of a settlement between smith and Wilson, but Prescc tt gentlemen who happened to be in town said there was no probability of it unless Mir Smith should decide to accept one of the three last propositions submitted by Col Wilson last week. Col Wilson will address a meeting here Saturday night and he will expect the county candidates to appear as conspicuously on the stage as they have done at the several Smith meetings held here in the colonel's absence.

HAWAIIBN POLITICS
A Native Hope of the Restoration of
 the Queen.

Honolulu, Sept. 2&.-Nativc Ha- waiians are showing much interest in the approaching election of a delegate to congress and are registering rapidly and in great numbers. Out of 2.7G0 voters registered on the island of Oahu on which this ei,y is situated, nearly 2000 are Hawaiians. This interest i5 very likely produced by a report which has been circulated among them that if they can succeed in elecgns a dele gate to the American congress, tn annexation bill will be repealed and the queen restored to tIe throne.
 The better educated of the natives have identified themselves with either tha reDubli i-an or democratic party in the islands. but large numbers led by r. W. Wilcox are insisting upon an in deTond mt organization. T. is claimed thst if these inIepandsrt voters sue c-ed in pres ryiDg their organization and work together at election they will swamp the party organizations. But the native Hawaiian is not as a rule an astUte politician and is easily led by strong leaders. IL is extremely doubt ful if an independent organization among them will prove successful. and it is quite likely that many will coa- lezre with one or the other of the reg ular party organizations.

New York. Oct. 9.-NumeSous letters from German voters have been received at republican headquarters in this city showing that the attempt of the Bryan managers to capture the German vote" has failed utterly. The president of one of the republican leagues of Missouri. a Gemiln who is in touch with "German-American sentfment' in that state. wrote that the cry of inn perialism and miiitarism with Which the democrats expected to catch the German-American vote does not have the desired effc-t: the Germans are in line for Mckinley" Other letters were to the same effect. Of similar purport Were the following statements:
 Dr. Hans KUdl:ch, the famous soldier If the revolution of 1SfS: For the last forty years I have taken part in elec- tions.

DAMAGING TESTIMONY.

Georgetown, Ky, Oct. 9.-In the Toutsey case today the principal wit ness was Lieutenant Rickett of Knox county, who testified that Youtsey told him the only way to settle the contest was to put GOebel out of the way. and that he had s1OO to contribute for the job: that GOepel could be killed from the executive building and the man who fired the shot could escape through the basement. He further teS- tified that on the day of the assassina- tion Youtsey posted men Tn the hall way of the executive building, telling them something would happen and a man would come down the stairway, when all were to go out together

THE GREAT BLACK CAT.
The Concatenated Order of Hoo Hoos
 in Session.

Dallas. Tex, Oct. 9.-The faithful fol- lowers of the Great Black Cat, cOmpris- ing the membership of the Concaten- ateG Order of Hoo Ho0s. assembled for their annual consideration here today. I is the first time in the history of the organization that the members have failed to observe their custom Of meet ing on the ninth day of the ninth month.
 The fact that the customary con vention date this year fell on Sunday caused a postponement to the ninth day of the tenth month, and the numbers and enthusiasm of the delegates does not appear to have suffered by the breaking of the rule. There were fully goo members present when Captain George w. Lock, of Lake Charles, La. grand snark of the unVerse, called the convention to order. After the formali- ties of welcome and responses the con vention met behind closed doors. The reports showed the order in excellent condition, both financially and numeri- cally.

Georgetown. Ky, Oct 9.-One of the most remarkable scenes ever enacted in a Kentucky court occurred tonight in the YoUtsey trial. The defendant him self was the chief participant. The court room was crowded at the time and the excitement was intense. D. E. Armstrong, a Louisville detective, had just told of his talks with YOutsey before and after his arrest.
 Then Arthur Goebel was put on the stand and Judge Ben Williams, who. for the first time appeared for the prosecution, did the questioning. Ar thur Goebel said:
 II talked with Youtsey the day he was arrested, late in the afternoon in the jail in Frankfort, in reference to the murder of my brother"
 Just at this point Youtsey arose be- hind his attorneys and in a loud voice said: Tt Is untrue. It is a lie. never spoke a word to that man in my life, nor he to me." Colonel Crawford told him to be quiet and sit down. and others took hold of him. ''I will not sit down. I never said a word to that man, it is untrue" He was shouting by this time and every one was on the tip-toe of excitement.
 Youtsey's wife sprang to his side and while endeavoring to make him sit down could be heard saying:
 Now you have killed my husband, I suppose you are satisfied" Then Yout- sey hysterically shouted again: ''I am innocent. There is no blood on my hands. These men are swearing my life away"
 Then three deputy sheriffs went over and grabbed him. He struggled wildly and said: Let me alone. 1 will not sit down."
 Arthur Goebel meanwhile sat sphinx like in the witness chair and never turned his head. Finally after Youtsey was forced into his seat he shouted again: "Goebel is not deadl All the demons in hell could not kill him!
 MT. Sheriff. if the defendant does not behave himself put handcuffs on him. said Judge Cantrill. Meanwhile the audience could not be forced to keep their seats until the judge threatened to fine those who stood up. Youtsey settled back in his chair closed his eyes and seemed in a state of collapse He waved his handkerchief about his head in an aimless way and groaned and cried hysterically. Finally quiet was restored and Judge Williams asked Arthur GOebel another question. when Crawford asked postponement of the trial until tomorrow on account of the defendants condition. which was granted. Youtsey's condition is criti- cal.
