IS GLAD BE CAME
A Winter Visitor Who Speaks Well
 of Phoenix.

Dr. George Mitchell and son of Mans field, O., arrived here a day or two ago and are stopping at the Hotel Adams They are here for the enjoyment Of Arizona's mild winter climate and will probably remain till the cold weather is over. MT. Mitchell is himself sufferer from asthma, rather he was until ne came west but says he has not suffer- ed minute with it since he reached central Kansas on his way to Phoenix' though for years before he has hardly passed night that he did not have to get up and sit in chair for while. He looks robust and healthy, just as he certainly would if he made Phoenix his home.
 He says Phoenix is rapidly gaining a reputation throughout the east as health resort, and that 1t is getting frequent mention in the medical jour nals. He says the trains are filled with people coming to Arizona and New Mexico in search of health.
 Though he has been here but a day or two he has already spcnt some time in driving around the valley and ex- presses himself as delighted with the evident agricultural and horticultural possibilities of the soil He was very much interested in the orange groves and visited a number of orchards where the golden fruit still weights the trees now almost ready to blossom for an o,her crop.
 Asked what he thought of Phoenix. he replied that he was agreeably sur prised. The city is not only larger but is architecturally more attractive than he had supposed. The broad and we'll kept streets were spoken of com p.imentary and the green lawns and shrubbery affords picture that great ly interets those who come from an environment of snow and ice. The gen.. tie breezes and the warm sunshine are in wonderful contrast to the winter gales that sweep south from Lake Erie. He remarked especially the good order of the city. for though he is not one of those who believe all the cock and bull stories in the papers about the wild and woody west, that are printed in the Sunday magazines, still he knew that saloons were openly maintained. that the customs of the country still had the flavor of the frontier and nat urally expected that rough houses were

 Reclr and Slaughter have been at enmity for long time, and when they met in Sprinserville last Saturday they engaged in friendly (? lquarr,l which no enc thought would have such a bit ter ending. But Mir. Slaughter seemed tc tire of quarreling and departed say ing: "i'll be back in few minutes and I'll fix you" Mir. Bpeler fixed himself hofore slaughter returned by procuring shotgun. When Slaughter came back to sam safelrs saloon he came in at the | or, raised his Winchester and fired at BeelLr but missed. whereupon Beeler seized his shot gun and called out 70 Mr. Peary, whc was standing near the Gc-g': Get cut of the way. MT. Peary, don't want to have to kill two men" Then he fired and Slaughter, who was about to fire second shot, fell. dead, and stray shot from the charge took effect in Psary's sid", mak- irg a dangerNus but rot fatal wound :: although had it not been for the shot striking his slx-shooter handle there would have hren two dead men.
 MT. Eeeler gave himself up to the au- thorHies at once and asked for trial. As there was considerable excitement over the affair at Springcrville Beeler wac escorted to St. Johns, whers he had q hearing Wednesday. and was placed under $l,000 bond.
