OUTLAW ARRESTED
A Noted Outlaw of Apache County
Behind the Bars.

Early Thursday morning the 9th
George f. Scarborough Jr., Ed Halver-
son and Pollord Pearson brought into
town the noted outlaw Tod Carver
alias Hillard. 1t was brave and well
laid scheme under which Scarborough
and Halverson worked 10 bring to
justice this criminal.
For months they had been on the
trail and lookout for the desperate.
Carver or Hilliard had recently re-
turned to Arizona from Texas, it is be-
lieved. and was laying low in the wild
country known as the Tularosa near
Luna. y. NJ. The brave captors work
ed around some time for an opportun-
ity to get their man, then realizing
their chance had come took possession
of the camp into which their outlaw
would no doubt spend the night. Hid
ing their horses some distance away,
they laid for their victim, who did not
come till late, when two men were
spied coming toward them horseback.
All at once Scarborough yells up
with your hands, ''Not for any offic-
err" was Carver's reply at the time his
companion put his hands high in the
air. Again Scarborough tells him TO
throw up his hands, and it is repeated
when the brave officer leveled his
pistol saying az with your hands
or you'll soon { re- hell!"Then the out
laws hands We IUfup.
There is notInuch doubt as to this
criminal being Spe of the murderers OF
our beloved to4hsmen Frank Lesueur
and Andrew A gibbons 10 months ago
today. That he Is Tod Carver there is
positively no doubt st. Johns Herald.
The opening q TO settlement of In
dian lands in the Indian territory is
causing CONSIDERATION among cattle
men, and will doubtless be the means
of breaking many of them unless they
be given more time in which to get
out their stock. In the Kiowa,
Comanche and the Wichita-Caddo
reservation there are between 5000
and 200, 900 head OF cattle. The owners
OF these cattle have paid their leases,
some OF them up to October. These
steers will not be in fit condition to
ship before August first, and to force
them out within thirty days will injure
every one. There is but one railroad
through that country, the Rock Island
and it is not prepared to handle that
many cattle in the Oklahoma country
within the time which will be allowed.

A GRAND FOURTH!
A Big Crowd and a Pleas
ant Day.
The Program Carried Out to the
Very Letter.

The one hundred and twenty-fifth
anniversary OF this Nation was appro-
priately celebrated IN Clifton. Clifton
has had celebrations before, but it
never before entertained a larger
crowd, or carried out an elaborate
program more successfully. People
came for many miles TO attend the cele-
bration, many being present from New
Mexico. The celebration had been
we'll advertised, and on the third the
city commenced TO fill up with
strangers. At break of day on the
morning OF the Fourth the
NATIONAL SALUTE
was fired by Dick Fritz, who became
50 enthusiastic in the work that he
kept it up all day. Dick chucked them
in 50 closely that it was hard TO tell
where one salute ended and another
But each salute had q
significance OF its own. The program
did not say so, but Dick had little
program of his own. The first salute,
tho one fired at the peep of day-was
TO the United States OF America, the
greatest Nation on earth the next was
10 the original thirteen states, and then
followed salute To each additional
state as it came into the Union, until
texas was reached, when there was a
general explosion all along the river
front, and people rushed out OF their
homes thinking that a magazine had
exploded. Fritz is from Texas, and
he couldn't pass his own state without
some extra fiourishes, besides, as he af-
forwards explained, Texas is the big
gest state in the union and deserved
extra. After he had finish
ed with the states and territories he
fired a royal salute TO each OF the pres
idents and vice presidents with q
Double Header" for Old Abe Lincoln.
Then came the salutes to the Army
and Navy. That one fired about 9,
which shook loose the rocks on the
sides OF the mountains, was to Admiral
Dewey. 1t was a cOrker, and was only
equaled by the salute to Arizona,
which lasted from dark until daylight
on tho morning OF the 9Th.
Old Glory, the pride OF every true
American, and the symbol of Liberty
TO the people Of the earth, was unfurled

OF the mountain 10 gladden. the day
with bright and joyous smile. BY
this time the streets were full OF peo-
pie, the band played the Star Spangled
Banner" and white haired old mon,
who had followed the flag over many a
bloody field, took off their hats and
bowed their heads ia silent reverence
to "Old Glory" with tears of Joy
streaming down their honest faces.
The Morenci Silver Cornet Band, one
OF the best in the territory, arrived at 8
o'clock, and the crowds grew more
dense. Promptly at $3.50 the

were commenced at the shady

first number, Emusic by the Bands, :"
drew the people together until several
thousand had congregated. Miss
Maud Kemp, of Stafford, in a clear and
strong voice, read that greatest OF all
documents ever penned by immortal
man-thc Declaration of Independence.
This was followed by Judge NJ. J. Egan,

Judge were intended more particularly

teresting but instructive as well 10 the
older generations. y solo by Master
Joseph T. Place followed, which made
lasting impression on those present.
Judge d. F. Glidden, OF Tucson, the
Orator OF the Day, spoke for about an
hour, reviewing the history of the
country from the signing of the Declar-
alton OF Independence up to the present
time. The Judge is most earnest,
forceful speaker. He has way of
calling "a spade a spade" and he did
not hesitate to criticise our cousins
across the water for the cruel war now
being waged against the South Afri-
can republics, which he likened unto
the United States of a century and a
quarter ago. He also flayed alive our
own government for its present policy
with Cuba, Porto Rica and the Philip
pines. The Judge expresses his con-
yictions in no uncertain language, and
was heartily applauded.
He was followed by Judge F. L. b.
Goodwin, whom the people Of this
camp love and respect for his honor
and integrity. The Judge is one o. the
most brilliant and entertaining speak
ers in the territory, and was at his
best on the Fourth.
Judge c. o. Bustamente then ad-
dressed the people in Spanish, and
those who could follow him spoke in
the highest praise Of his ability as an
orator.

HAS CREATED MUCH N
Evangelist Newell's Statement ON
Sunday Observance Discussed.

His assertion that there is no scriptural
law for the observance Of the Sabbath bids
fair to cause Evangelist Newell Of Chicago,
who is conducting revival services at the
West End Coliseum, more than q little
trouble. in the way Of discussions and an
swering questions.
Mr.. Newell made the statement in the
course Of his sermon at one Of the meet
ings early In the week. Since then he has
been led into several discussions by those
who heard him and others who called to
ask him II 1t were true that he said 1t.
Mr.. Newell contends that the resurrection
Of Christ blotted out the old scriptural law
for the observance of the Sabbath. which
he characterized as an arbitrary command.
He says the Sabbath IL one Of privileges
and not Of law and that the Christian has
the privilege of doing whatever he chooses.
Mr.. Newell does not make the assertion
that the Sabbath day should not be- oh;
nothing in the Scriptures that requires It.
On the other hand, he says he believes the
day should be observed.
The evanselist believes in a newer order
of things and his statements along this line
Of thought have caused considerable COM
ment among the crowds that have gath
cred twice a day to hear MIN since MS
meetings began.

WEDDING GUESTS
were DECEIVED.
Waited All Afternoon to Witness
Ceremony That Had Been Per-
formed in the Morning.

Orville E. Hickerson, cashier for the ILL
nois Terminal Railway at Alton. who was
married Thursday to Miss Estelle NJ. judo
of Edwardsville, conspired with his bride
to play a joke upon their relatives. The
wedding had been planned for 4 O'Clock
Thursday afternoon at the home Of the
bride, and at the particular request Of the
couple no one, not even relatives from out
Of town. were invited to attend.
Hickerson arrived on an early morning
train, accompanied by the Reverend G.. w.
Shepherd, pastor of n Methodist church In
Alton. They were met at the station by the
young lady, who informed her sweetheart
that she had received a letter the evening
before from relatives. stating that they
were coming on for the wedding, and would
arrive at noon. The young folks decided
that as they had intended to have a strictly
private wedding. they would see the plan
through. They stepped across the street
from the station to St. Johns Church, and
were married by the Reverend Mr..
Shepherd, the ceremony occurring just at 9
o'clock. The minister took the 10 o'clock
train for Alton, and the young people went
to the home of the brides parents, Mr..
and Mrs. C.. H. Judd, but did not disclose
the fact that they were married.
AT noon the groOmS parents and a num-
Der of the brides relatives arrived. AS the
afternoon passed and the hour for the we'd
ding came and passed the assembled guests
wondered in polite silence why there were
no visible preparations for the ceremony.
The only one who had been taken into the
secret was the brides mother, and she had
promise to say nothing.
When it was almost 5 o'clock, Mr.. Hick-
erson remarked that 1t was time for him to
eav for his train. Instantly there was a
flood of questions from the perplexed
guests. asking when the wedding was to
take place, and then the happy couple
laughingly announced hat they had been
welded at 8 that morning.
