SUPERVISORS BUSY
Approval of Bonds of New Officers
 Lion Killers.

The board of supervisors had more things to attend to yesterday than some people have t1 worry about in a year. The closing up of their affairs to give the incoming board as clean a docket as possible involves a great deal of work, and in addition every man in the courty who had a little matter to look after left it till he came to town to do his Christmas shopping. There were a lot of minor affairs to at t. nd to of a clerical nature and of no special interest to the public. The most important matter was the ap- proving of the bonds of new officers, who are getting into shape to take charge of their respective offices as soon as possible after December 31st.
 Bonds were filed and approved, Of J. H. Langston, probate judge-eiect A. J. Edwards, district attorney elect; J. w. Clark. constable and Thomas ?. Biggs, justice of the peace, Lehi pre- cinct.
 The contract and bond # pr. c. F. Hawley, for the medical care of iadi- gents at Mesa City, was approved.
 Tn board accepted the bid of Dr. Scroggs fer the care of indigcnt sick in Tempe, the same having been held in abeyance for some time.
 The contIac, for fe- ding the prison CTS in the couaty jail had baen let to r. T. Hurley, t-, . p:-t-st was subsa- quently entered. This was cleared up yesterday and the contract was con- firmed by the .,LII.
 The C.Esr mGt.er of PutHc interest was the destroying of seven lion scalps, with onz of which there was connected an interesting incident.
 Six of the scalps Were brought in by John MCCdrty, fish commissioner, game warden and official lion killer. No surprise was occas.oned, therefore, by his pres -n,2tiCn and his request for '$120 bounty, for ne kills lions as skill fully ar1 as frequ ntly as Brother Roberts does catfish. But the sev- enth scalp was brought in by W. H.. Hamilton, of Glendale, who came here from the East two or three years ago. taking rank among the tanderfoC.s. It is to be presumed that he never saw rope except i1 pictures till he came to Arizona. A few weeks ago he took a trip up iatO the foothills, saw a lion. lassoed him, ti=j him down and scalpsd him. The scalp brought him S2O for Christmas money, and established his professional reputation among cow boys.

BREWER R-BULGER
 DELEGATES WIN Fifth District Committee Decides Against MT. Thompson. COOSA AND CLAY PRORATED The Action of the Committee Will Give Brewer-Bulger Combination
 Control of Convention Appeal Is Taken.
COOSA AND CLAY PR0RATED

Goodwater, August 23.-(special)- 1.-The contest in the Fifth Congressional dis trict is now up to the Supreme Court of the Democratic party of the State-the State Executive Committee.
 The district executive committee ad- journed this morning, after a session last ing the greater part of four days. The committee heard contests from Elmore, Clay and Coosa, Thompson contesting the former and Brewer the two latter counties. days and the case was submitted at F o'clock last night. The committee remain ed in session until after o'clock trying to reach a decision, but it was impossible.
 It required but couple of hours this morning for verdict to be reached. By a unanimous vote, the committee decided the Elmore case in favore of the Brewer Buger delegates. The delegations in Clay and Coosa were prorated equally between Thompson and Brewer. This action was taken by a vote of three to six.
 This gives the control of the convention to Brewer and Bulger on temporary organ ization if they can combine their forces, of which there is considerable doubt.
 Thompson's friends gave notice of ap- peal to the State Committee, claiming that if they were entitled to half of the dele gations in those counties they were en- titled to the whole.
 Of course, the decision has not given satisfaction, as the Thompson men were Clay and Coosa.
 Chairman Lowe has been asked to call the committee together in Birmingham next Monday, and 1t is understood that he will comply with this request.

NO. MORE TROOPS TO
 BE SENT TO CHINA
All The Forces Now at Sea Will Be Ordered To Proceed To Manila.

France and Great Britain has not been made known here, but there Is thought to be no doubt that these governments will de- cline to treat with China at this time.
 Copies of the American answer were sent to all the powers, simply for their in- formation, but in the State Department note of transmission there was no sug- gestion that concurrence or approval was expected or desired. On the contrary the United States acted entirely on it's own in itiative and, as it has turned out, acted first and in such a way as to have other governments take like action.
 The German reply, in one respect Is re- garded as having significance beyond that of the United States in that it is based on the theory that there can be no sovereign authority In China other than that ema- hating from the Emperor and Empress Dowager. Among diplomatic officials this Is said to be equivalent to an assertion that the existing regime Is to be recog- nized and that there is no purpose to set up any new administrative authority over China. While it is said that this may not go to the extent of assuring the contnu- ance of the present Manchur dynasty, it at least discloses no present purpose to hold that the flight of the Emperor and Empress Dowager is an abdication of the Manchur regime.
