JUSTICE DANIELS SHARPLY
REBUKES TWO ATTORNEYS
Suit of Robert M. WaddeH Against
James Gately Causes Acrimonious
Remarks BY Opposing Counsel.

Justice of the Peace Daniels admins
tered sharp rebuke yesterday to At
torneys H. w. Hutton and j. F. Coffey
in the suit of Robert NJ. Waddell against
James Gately and the Risdon Iron
Works. Wadden is suing the defendants
for $249 35, the value of trunk and per
sonal belongings alleged to have been re-
tanned by Gately.
Waddell was brought from the East by
the Risdon company to work as q ma
chinist but deserted his position after one
days work. Waddell had been a boarder
at the Gately lodging house and was re
ferred to Superintendent e. M. Bassett
of the iron works when he demanded the
return of his trunk. Waddell testified
that Gately told him he could have his
trunk back when he reimbursed the COM
pany for the expenses incurred in bring
ing him to this city, as he had broken his
contract.
The attorneys in the case thereupon
became very acrimonious and indulged in
many insulting remarks toward each
other that Judge Daniels told them he
would commit them for contempt if they
did not cease, as they were not showing
proper respect to the court The attor-
neys became subdued after that and the
case went over until Tomorrow

CLARENCE KING
DIES IN TUCSON
Famous Geologist and
Mining Expert Passes
Away.
Man Who Expof d he Utah
Diamond MINI Fraud
Called to Rest.

News was received in the city yester-
day that Clarence King, the well7known
geologist and mining expert, died last
Saturday at Phoenix Ariz., from gallop-
ing consumption.
The deceased was credited with being
the greatest geologist on this coast, and
his services after his retirement from the
employment of the Government were
greatly in demand. His most sensational
report was handed to w. c. Ralston many
years ago, when he informed him that a
diamond mine, which was supposed to
have been located in Southern Utah, was
a fraud, and that if diamonds had been
found in that locality the claims had GER
tainly been "Salted.
The Utah diamond mine" incident oc-
Cured in the early seventies. a man by
the name of Harpending arrived in this
city from the East. He was a total
stranger and attempted to induce num-
Der of San Francisco capitalists to form
a company aud buy diamond mine 10
Gated in Southern Utah. The man eXh1b-
tied some fine stones to show as samples
and the mine was deemed worthy of being
examined A mining expert was dis
patched to the scene, and upon his recon-
mendation the deal was nearly consum-
mated
Clarence King, who happened to be in
the city at the time, denounced the fraud
and said that with his knowledge of geol-
ogy he was certain that diamonds did not
exist in that locality. He quietly visited
the supposed diamond mine and found
that his convictions were right. He came
back to San Francisco and exposed the
whole plot.
Clarence King had great literary abil-
ity and contributed many articles on
scientific subjects to Eastern magazines.
He also wrote a book entitled Noun
taineering in the High Sierras,' which
became very popular.
The last few years Clarence King has
made his residence in New York, but he
often came to California on mining busi-
ness. In New York and this city he was
very popular in club circles and his loss
will be deeply mourned by large num-
her of friends

GOOD FARMING.

Mr.. G. J. Koon dropped in to see
us few days ago and ran his sub
scription up to 1903, two years in
advance. This gives Mr.. Koon tho
cake. He is just a couple Of months
ahead Of any one else. Who will be
the one to pass him? In conversa-
tion with Mr.. Koon about crops, we
induced him to tell us something
about his own little farm. He said
that while crops were not as good rs
they might have been with proper
seasons, he was not complaining.
He had made very good grain crop,
and a fair corn crop, considering the
snail amount of fertilizer under
them. He gathered 81 dozen big
bundles of oats from one acre. H.
says he has one bunch OF oats that
has lib heads that grew from a sim
gle grain. This is something extra
ordinary. He says he will bring it
to the TIMES office where it will be on
exhibition. He says he has 81
acre field of creek bottom corn that
is the finest he has seen in the coun-
ty. He gathered $40 large bundles
IT fodder from this corn, the ears are
well developed and will make fine
yield. He did not use any guano
under the corn at all, the only sub
stance in the shape Of guano it could
have got was the guano that had been
used in former years under cotton.
Mr.. Koon has his land we'll terraced
and does most Of his WORK himself.
He says he has had to work very
hard but he says there are corn crops
adjoining that he would not give
those 81 acres for 25 or 30 acres Of
them, and feels that his hard work
has not been in vain. His farm is
small but he thoroughly prepares his
land for planting, and then works
it for all he is worth. That is the
idea. The sooner our farmers realize
that thorough preparation Of their
land, and close and careful attention
to their various crops are necessary
to good harvest the better for them
Ones best efforts should be given to
his business at all times no matter
whether that business is farming OF
something else. Time wasted on 6
farm is as much a mistake as time
wasted in tbs mercantile or c cther lines
We must keep everlastingly at it anc
utilize every opportunity, If we wish
to succeed in our undertakings.
