Bull Batting.

Although bull batting was a cruel
pastime, 1t was also a fulfilling Of the
law. for formerly no butcher was al
lowed to offer for sale the flesh of any
bull that had not been baited. The
goading Of the animal in a fury was
supposed to have some influence on the
flesh. In a similar belief the flesh Of a
hunted hare was thought to be superior
in flavor to that of one that had been
shot. and a present Of "a hunted hare"
was considered to be a special compli.
ment. In the records of the corpora
ton of Leicester, England. the follow.
ing order appears: "At a common hall
held on Thursday before st. Simon and
st. Jude. 14G7. no butcher to kill a bull
till baited.'" At Winchester it was or
dered (thirtieth Henry VIII) that from
hensforth Their shall be no bulstake sci
before any mayors dore to bayte any
bull. but onlie at the bull-ringe within
the saide cytie."

A RUSH OF BUSINESS
Recorders Court Presented an Old.
 Time Scene Yesterday.

There was a good run of business in | the recorders court yesterday. To
 begin with. there was a job lot of some six or seven bicycle law-breakers for wanton unobservance of sidewalk re- strictions and headlight ordinances. They were disposed of in the ordinary way, by the jumping of bail money. etc. all of which helps out the city's bank account.
 Then came the trial of Frank Parker | for being drunk and disorderly. In justice to F. H. Parker. formerly of the capitol site commission. it should ts announced that this is another fel- low. He was too drunk to be out without a guardian yesterday morning and Officer Russell suggested that he had better go 10 bed. He went to. the Lemon house and secured 8 room, but refused to sleep in it after he got there. His jag was of the noisy va riety, and he stirred up such a dis turbance that the proprietor of the hotel called for a policeman and Mir. Russell went after him. landing him in jail after a little physical persua- sion. The fine was s6 or six days.
 Ascension Martinez received inspl- ration from thS Salvation army music. Sunday night, and began the execu- tion of a cake walk in the midst of the religious exercises. He danced into jail. and in court yesterday. where h, said he would have to take the off cer's word for it. as his memory was defective. Six dollars.
 Antonio Luna. who works for o. H. Christy when he is sober found him self up against a charge of drunken ness, and was fnde $3. MT. Christy stood good for it.
 A fellow called "Shep' was the star bad man of the lot or would have been had he been present. but his employer. Alex Silva. came In early and said he would stand good for his fine. Shep came in Sunday from Silvas thresner and got on high lonesome He was driving around in buggy and made trouble for the Salvation army. Then he ran amuck of the Major Cole meet ing on the corner of Center and Wash ington streets about o'clock in the evening. Officer Lawrence was put next to him and got into the buggy to drive him around to the police station. At the city hall corner, while the band concert was still in progress, Shep de- cided to make fight for his liberty. He found himself in conflict with a man who was in no sense an invalid and by the time he was jailed he had a dis colored eye. His. fine was placed at fit- teen dollars.
 The only other case that demanded attention yesterday was that of Charles Chickenny, who was arrested the night before for vagrancy by Capt Joe. Bush. It was charged under the territorial statute. that he was guilty of lotering around saloons. houses of ill-repute, eta. The defendant, who is represented by Attorney c. w. Johnstone, pleaded not guilty. and the case was set for trial this afternoon at o'clock.

A TRAGIC DEATH
John Camp Killed Himself Probably
 By an Accident.

John Perlin Camp killed himself, probably accidentally, at his home on the Howard ranch. six miles northeast of the city yesterday afternoon about o'clock Coroner Gray was notified, and a jury was summoned and viewed the remains. which were turned over to Undertaken A. J. Bradley.
 Mr. Camp was 2e years old and his home was in Newington. Conn. He was a nephew of the president of the Chicago & Eastern Illinois railroad, and was most excellent young man. loved and F expected by all who knew him. He was a graduate of Yale col lege and shortly after his graduation entered a brokers office in New York. About year ago he became greatly debilitated and his attending physician told him that he was afflicted with tuberculosis.
 His brother. Charles Camp. a student of sculptures had recently return from pursuing his studies in Europe, and he and a sister of the dead man. Mrs. Augusta Wagner. whosa home is in Chicago. accompanied the invalid 10 Arizona last October hoping amost against hope that the sick nan would recover. Ills record since then in the matter of his terrible affliction has been a remarkable one. When he arrived here he was having high levers and his case was ap9Ir ntly that or a consumptiye in thc las; stages of the disease.
 The brother and sister and the in vaid moved t1 I wards ranch. where a little house was ere. ted for their convenience. and after a month the fever left him and he improved won derfu.ly. By April he had gained over fifteen pounds in weight and was no longer troubled with fever. could walk ride and do almost anything that a well person could do. The change was almost miraculous from that of bed ridden consumptiva to a person of rapidly rscuperating health. Since then his improvoIl mt has been rap.d and continued.
 About a month ago his brother Charles went to Flagstaff to secure em- ployment in the mills. and it was in- tended that John and Mrs. Wagner were to join him there next week. re- turning here again next fall. if thought advisable
 Last Wednesday night John had an attack of cholera morbus and sent for Dr. Dufield. his attending physician. The doctor saw him frequently i'll Sunday. when he seemed to have fully recovered and was in the best of spirits and planned with the doctor for his occupation during the summer and next fall when he would return to Phoenix. The doctor last saw him alive about Sunday noon. and accord ing to his sist IT he slept well Sunday night and was in the best of spirits yesterday morning. eating hearty breakfast. About o'clock yesterday afternoon his pains returned suddenly and he suffered intensely. It was probably twenty minutes later after the pain first seized him that the fatal shot was fired, accidentally or other wise. A few minutes after he was taken with the pain he said to his sis ter that he could not stand it and must have the doctor at once. Mrs Wagner looking around the room thought to herself that there was no way in which any harm could come to him. and started to the Howard residence. about One-eighth of a mile away. to dispatch a messenger for Dr. Duffiel1

A CONTINUED CASE
The Congestion of Broadway With
 Witnesses.

Yesterday was the time, after many Burnett's court of the case, or rather cases, of Rosenswelg vs, Charlotte Mon- roe and Charlotte Monroe vs. Harry Hall, involving the ownership or price of certain diamonds end a sealskin cloak. The only reputable person con- nected with the affair Is the plaintiff, Resensweig. Of course, it is not under stood that the court or his constables and deputies are parties to the affair. The parties kept coming in asking for subpoenaes for witnesses up to the mo- ment of trial The subpoenaes in large blocks We're put into the hands of Cap tain Hi Mcdonald. He had not re- turned when the case was called and on motion of Miss Monroe. as plaintiff in one action and defendant in another. the case was continued until Wednes- day. Her attorney was sick. The con- and those witnesses who happened to be present went away.
 Then the fruit of Captain MeDonaId's labors began to be manifest. Broadway was filled up with perverts of both sexes. They came singly. in pairs, then in larger companies. They came on foot, on bicycles and in cabs. and Jus tice Burnett feared that they would soon be arriving in hay wagons. Every prostitute, male and female. in town seemed to know something about the case. The justice stood in the doorway :inging out that the case had been con- tinued, but as fast as one delegation of disappointed witnesses filed out of Broadway upon First avenue another procession moved in from Center street. The justice sent Frank McClintock out to find Captain Mcdonald and head off his destructive and futile career and prevent a further congestion of the street.
